I don't know if this is new to the devs or not.
I found a app that uses the camera in Cyanogen CM7.0 RC2 v011 Gingerbread 2.3.3 and it works.
It is 3D compass pro.
It's a compass that has a live background and if you press the camera button it takes a snapshot.
Maybe you can use that program to take some info to put our camera working in 2.3 gingerbread. It would be nice!!
Did you all already know that??
Are there any camera app that works in Gingerbread 2.3.3?
I cannot believe the selfish of the people....
87 views and not even one could say that this is known...it's a very hard job to do that
Thank's a lot
Not all viewers have installed a very unstable ROM.

i believe you just have to wait
87 ppl might just don't use the ROM and me either, don't use gingerbread rom because it's not ready for everyday use yet (i use Wolfbreak's rom)
just wait for some dev to see this forum =]

With V011 it looks like Camera illusion from the Android Market will take pictures. VideoCam illusion will show a picture but I'm not sure if it records or not.
Patience my friend! Replies take some time. You are on the right track with your thought process but don't expect a million comments just because you said it works. Videocam illusion, google goggles and a few others are confirmed to be working. A new topic might not be needed in this situation as it could be possibly posted in the correct thread.
You're right. Sorry for my rush and bad mood.
Thank's, i'll try camera illusion.
Sent from my X10
Cause of the camera issues i haven't try 011 rom yet (using wolf's rom)
But you could just try Camera illusion.Some says it works.
Yes, camera illusion works to pictures and videocam illusion works for camcorder.
Sadly only gives the lowest quality...
I really like the gingerbread 2.3.3, hope to have a full working rom soon...
This rom works fine, despite the restarts (2 or 3 times a day), but it's very smooth and light. I normally have +/-130Mb of free ram, with stock 2.1 at most have 80/90Mb.

Has the camera app been ported from the MT4G to work on other MT4G roms?
The stock Cyanogenmod camera is just absolutely terrible.
I know the answer is likely "it has sense bundled in tightly with it" but surely then there's a better camera than what comes stock with CM7?
no facial recognition, no touch to focus, etc
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=652796
its been done.
i would love it if it could be done with cm7 with mt4g. This is the ONLY reason i wont use cm7 lol. because i take lots of pics with my phone. the camera app on sense is the best ive used so far.
I just have to agree... The camera and the picture viewer which auto compresses the file from the MT4g is the best!

Dude, did you look at how old that thread is? You was the first person to post in it since Aug. That camera is nothing like the the one on this phone. Thats the old desire camera. I too miss the stock mt4g camera, its better turn than any I've used, and its a little disappointing the vanilla camera hasn't seen any improvement

Yepp. i posted to see if paul still was doing it. The new desire hd/z camera is amazing.. its pretty much exactly the same as the new expresso. I didnt post to see if that camera could be ported. i was also saying it has been ported pretty much.
Enom had it ported in his rom on the n1, he's working on a release for this phone, but last I checked, his g2 rom doesn't have it yet. We'll have to wait till someone gets it

Awesome. this will make me go away from sense and back on CM. thats the only thing keeping me on sense for now ha.
O lord I hope we get this soon.... I miss my good camera... but camera 360 takes awesome pix also
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Camera 360 is good but for some reason it was accountable for 94% battery consumption on my phone. I used it to take 2 pics and backed out of it (back button not home) and it was just EATING my battery for no reason and also put hundreds of random pics in my gallery. I uninstalled it.
i 2nd this i hate the camera that comes with cm!
edit: i also hate the 3d gallery. i wish i knew how to port apps or whatever so this could of been done. or at least give people options to use include the 2 gallerys and cameras. cant complain though ive been using cm since the g1 and mytouch3g good work just wish it had the stock camera and gallery
I miss the sense camera too :[
Maybe we should start collecting for a bounty to the first dev to port it over
That's when ppl donate Money right? If so I won't be able to until I get paid Thursday

Unfortunately due to family issues, Enomther might not be back to deving for awhile :-(
I too hate the stock aosp cam and 3d gallery. And would like to see the mysense camera on CM. But Im using quickpic as a substitute gallery. Its a lot better than the 3d gallery IMO.
I feel the same way as the rest of you...I really need a better camera app and that is the only thing I dislike of CM7...I use my camera a lot and the camera on CM7 is really bad in comparison...
I solve my camera problems with Camera 360
Cm 7 is in bug fixes mode right now as soon as their done getting close to stability as possible. They will enhanced the camera. My g2 on stock to sucky pictures on froyo it took crystal clear pictures. Really the ui for the camera needs a major overhaul with a full view finder but even on the xoom Google doesn't like it.

Yeah only thing I miss from sense rom is the camera, and friendstream (better fb sync than stock fb app) :\ oh and some of the widgets lol.
Stock camera. Friendstream. All of that is reliant on sense framework. Aka they will never work on aosp roms.
If you want sense stuff and the aosp feel just change your launcher and remove the bloat.

With all due respect to the developers who I think do the best work out there for Android phones...I've tried a few of the new ROM's and I've not experienced the full working Camera claimed in several of the threads. I'm fine with the no zoom feature...I downloaded Vignette and it's all good.
It's the camcorder that I need working 100% with a new baby on the way. I am on BB 46 and I found that I had the audio delay issue with video recording. I applied the patch that came out for that issue and then I had issues with the video's freezing, particularly longer ones.
Does anyone run a 2.2 ROM and not have video camera issues in 720p? If so, what ROM/BB combo are you on?? After switching back to 2.1 last night I'm really missing the performance of the 2.2 OS and am dying already to get back to it
I'm not sure about the camcoder but I think Wolf's CM rom is quite good as he's constantly trying to fix the lag issues.
The stock camera/camcoder app can take things at a better quality, but the zooming is way too slow for me.
If you like the stock app, then you can wait for the GB update as some testers claim that they are going to use the SE camera app in our update.
I've made a couple movies myself in 720p and didn't notice any issues with it.
I'm on Wolfbreak's CM6 rom.

So no audio lag, no video freezing?
What baseband are you running? Are you on the stock kernel or a custom one? Did you just apply his latest ROM or any extra camera fixes?

I suggest going back to stock 2.1 for perfect camera, but remember to backup with xrecovery so you can load 2.2 when you want to.

BB shouldn't make a difference in the camera but you should flash to .52 if you really are on .46 and not .49. I have no noticable delay with WolfBreaks ROM with the hotfix on BB .58 but I haven't done any extensive testing either but in the videos I have made since he released the .061 hotfix I haven't noticed the lag.

Yeah I'm leaning that way, but the 2.2 performance overall is so tempting
I saw a lot of posts from you in the 2.1 camera mod thread. Would you recommend I stay clear of that and stay 2.1 stock, or patch the V10 camera upgrade? You showed some pretty impressive pics in that thread after applying the patch and playing with some settings.

Yeah, the thing is is if your running firmware .435 V10 wony work so well. Theres video/audio lag when playing back your recording. But when i switched to firmware .6 V10 worked awesome.
So if your running .435 use V8 as V9 and 10 were built over the .16 firmware. V8 was built over the .435 firmware.
Or you can just stick to stock which works really well itself. EV control is the major benefit.
I explained how to use it in the camera mod thread.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
What I would do is this: Setup whatever 2.2 ROM you decide has least lag issues/best camera options then create a backup. Then flash a 2.1 ROM custom or not the camera is the same but only install apps you absolutely need and make a backup. Now you can switch back to your 2.2 backup and if you need a better camera restore your other backup and since you haven't installed a bunch of stuff it should load quickly. You could also set up the reboot to recovery script (doomlord has a thread on dev forum) and create a shortcut to it which would act like a widget to further speed up your restore process.
You should also upgrade your baseband because .46 is just old, .49 and .52 are the same generation and work with the same ROMs. Generally speaking the newer the BB the better the radio and battery and .58 is the newest now, although MiUi and GB ROMs work on older generation.

This I'll definitely consider. A dual boot situation at this point is more work than I'd likely use. Now that i've been back on 2.1 for a few days(keep in mind it's an optimized stripped 2.1 rom)....life's not so bad. I don't apparently watch much flash content on the phone because i'm not missing that. Really the coolest thing I miss is having the ability to toggle my wifi/apn etc from the status bar.

Hey guys, so i just got an X10 yesterday. It's my first smartphone (had an HP Ipaq Winmobile 6.5 previously). Right now it's running CM 6.5 I believe, that's how I bought it. I have two simple questions, please.
1) What's a good screen cover? Should I just go to the nearest "we have everything" store and pick up a matte screen protector, or should I get a specific one? I leave it in my pocket and no screen protector is a big no-no!
2) What is the best ROM (and kernel??) for me to get, if I have the following needs:
i) Fast. Right now it feels pretty blazing to be honest!
ii) Multi-touch please!!! I really don't like how X10 has no MT!
iii) Need Wi-Fi and GPS (I don't have a data plan)
iv) Need camera support for apps. I use camera a lot, the current ROM doesn't allow apps to use camera really, and there's no support for the front-facing camera (is that even a camera?)
v) Ideally gingerbread, but I don't care as long as it meets other requirements.
vi) Flash, again, no biggy.
vii) Support for apps, including, if possible, 3D games. Video codecs are a must. I tried hero of sparta just for fun and it didn't work it said closed unexpectedly)
viii) If possible, as free of bugs as can be. Right now my touchscreen gives out sometime, nothing major but annoying.
Thank you SO MUCH!!! I know I'm basically asking you to do everything for me, but I have owned the phone for 12 hours and besides not knowing anything, am spending all my time trying to get my phone company not to charge me $25 to make put my data on a SIM.
I'll do my best to figure everything else out myself, I just need help figuring out which ROM (and if need be, kernel) I should use on the X10.
THANKS!!!
in your case the best option would be to just install the Sony ericsson software on your computer and do an update, it will install the latest most stable version of Android for your device (Froyo 2.1) then just use a flashtool to root it if you want. This will enable you to have full features with minimal bugs.

Yeah you can totally unlock on any rom, just put the other companies sim card into the phone!!
I would say maybe update to the latest version of wolfbreak's rom, but you could also try freex10 beta 4 or cobrato's miui, depending on what style you like.
They're all complete, and I have no issues with any of them.
The speed you will gain from a 2.2 rom vs. a 2.1 rom is insane, plus apps2sd and other benefits.
I don't think you could pay me to go back to 2.1...
Also, get vignette from the market for the cam. It's awesome

Oh yeah it plays them well actually!!
Wolfbreaks played pretty well every thing I threw at it.
You can even get the HD version of games and it runs them perfectly.
Vignette is just for the camera, not for the camcorder. It takes amazing pics though (hardly compresses them) and has a TON of effects.
Yes, I agree with wolf's latest rom and cobrato's miui rom, both are fast,smooth and stable. I use both of them regularly. If you choose cobrato's rom and don't like the UI being like iPhonish, you can instal GO Launcher EX and it will even fly (that what I do with cobrato's rom). In fact with wolf's rom also I'm using GO Launcher EX as a replacement of Arc Launcher (really don't like that launcher).
Ok, wolf it is then seeing it's unanimous!
What about the screen protector...do either of you use it? I'm just careless with putting my phone next to my keys and stuff...

HAHA my bad, had a long night last night. sorry for the confusion.
Wolfbreak is amazing ROM...i switched from freex10 beta 4 hotfix 1, and wolfbreak's ROM just totally amazes me. Partly because he's the only one that tweaks the build props. I got a whopping 1504 on my quadrant score!
Vignette is good camera replacement as the member above me said (personally, i never use the camera)
HD games...i can play almost any gameloft HD game on my x10, BIA2, Asphalt 5, Modern Combat 2, Real Football e.t.c... just not good cos the dual touch on the x10 is very dodgy. Oh yeah, download the game guerrilla bob...its my favourite game.
Keep in mind before flashing the wolfbreak rom, u need to flash the required baseband (for me, its baseband 58) via flashtool.

Oh btw: the x10 already has a screen protector; its factory and its put on perfectly incase you dint notice, otherwise you can buy those others on ebay, i bought ten for like 3 bucks (aussie)
Make sure you put it on properly to avoid bubbles, use credit card to squash bubbles. e.t.c

i have tried most of the custom ROMS and one thing is common - the camera nd camcorder DO NOT produce good pictures as the stock 2.1 update1 camera.
moreover, the stock camcorder has "continuous auto-focus" feature which none of the customs ROM have.
the camera works in most roms but there is a FC issue in the stock 2.1 camcorder...can anyone of you get a grip of that???
am on Froyobread 023d and am looking forward for a positive reply from you all.
I face the same issue.
Wait for ages bro, but I don't think anyone would care about this, i posted the very same problem about 4 month ago... a noone replied, but who knows, maybe this time...
This is the ONLY reason I don't use custom roms... maybe everyone else is happy with a half-working cam-_-

grab LgcamPro v 5.95 from net and use it "only" as a camcorder (set the focus mode as "semi - continuous") and voila!! u get "continuous auto-focus" back during recording videos.....use the stock 2.1update1 camera as ur photo cam and LGCamPRo5.95 as ur videocam

Well, ICS is pretty much been dropped as far as development goes, though there is CanonRom and cm9 still available. Both are fairly stable, and for an ics rom have pretty decent battery life.
JB has taken priority and there are plenty of choices. AOKP Is a great place to start, it has a lot of rom options, but not so much it overwhelms you. With all of the current jellybean roms, expect a few issues. If you didnt already know, Moto has declared the photon obsolete and will not be giving us ICS. Meaning, we do not have the proper drivers/libs to fix some issues. The camcorder does not work. There is a slight lag in animations(but has mostly been resolved) Some games lag/skip. Battery life is hit or miss, but your probably looking at about 10-20 hours of use, 24+ if you standby alot. Overall, it is worth it for the JellyBean experience.
There is also CNA(similar to aokp, but more option), MIUI(iphone like), Paranoid(known for phablet/tablet mode), XenonHD (never used the rom too often so not too sure)
I'm using Th3Bill's (Jokersax's) CM10 jb rom 4.1.2 (1018 build) . So far my experience
+'s:
Very stable, minus the couple items below
Pretty damn fast (1300 mhz and 256mb heap size)
Getting about 36 hours of battery life with light usage (best i've ever gotten)
Updated pretty regularly (about a build every week)
-'s:
Netflix not working
Google streetview not working
Don't use the camcorder, but if I recall some say it doesnt work quite right

As Th3Bill is taking over for joker while he's on a break, the DL's have moved to http://goo.im/devs/Th3Bill/CM10/Photon

Thank you guys for the update!
About the camcorder - you mean that there is no camera at all or only the video rec is missing?
Of what you impressed, there is any chance to get any update/to get it works sometime?
Any other 'critical' things that missing at JB ROMs [that we had on GB] ?
Thanks again!

Camera app is there and it works, but the video lags behind slightly what you point the phone cam at. i.e. if you pan quickly from left to right to left it will start panning about a second behind where the phone is at.
Just tried the camcorder part of it, it lags as well and although it showed recording, I don't think it saved the video, or at least wasnt visible in Gallery or on the sdcard under DCIM/Camera (maybe they arent saved there anymore, don't use it so I'm not sure there)
Can't really comment on the prospects of getting it working as I kinda skim over those posts
Oh and the old thread got pruned and the new one is now, you may ask there

Hi guys.Why no one pulled the video library with the Atrix leak? Or someone is doing now? Devices as almost identical in hardware ... what problems are? In the radio part?
