I often heard something about some camera modifications for some phones
like here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1246609
Is there also a way for our phone or this topic was already addressed?
There is one camera mod here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139547
Thank you kyrillos13
There's also the app "LG Camera" in the market, there you can change the video output to mp4 and it works.
A friend of mine modded the standard camera app from the optimus 2x speed to record video with higher framerate, he's going to explain to me how he did it and then I'm going to mess around with the camera app

I did look it about 2 months ago, but in our phone it wasnt possible. I dont know why, but when i changed the bitrate, output audio & video, it fc..
I know of your mod, and it's awesome.
But I'm still going to try it for myself, just to learn (;

Hope that you will succeed in changing bitrate and output
the kernel must first allow these settings.....
they must first be enabled or changed in the drivers...
we will have to wait till marcellusbe or dharam are free and then we can ask them

Yeah i asked Marcellusbe, but he doesnt have time now
I again looked at the app "lg camera" where I could set the framerate to 30 fps and the video bit rate up to 20MB, but I do not know what is supposed to be with the video bit rate.
And as already mentioned the video output to mp4, unfortunately, you can change nothing on the resolution and on the sound , for that we need a modified kernel and drivers.

With all the kerenel and rom releases this place is buzzing but what good is all this speed if games lag?
Can someone explain why emulators/games i.e skyforce lag when I touch the screen. Will kernel solve this problem or does the problem lie elsewhere?

VillainROM 6 doesn't appear to have game lag, like most new kernel ROMs. Give it a try

I kinda doubt that, all the vanilla/sense roms do.
Please if you dont mind, can you download sky force demo or try a demo on VR6 .

I just spoke to a few of our users on IRC. They are certain it's done. I will try Sky Force too. I would video it, but the only camera I have handy is one of these high-def compacts, and there's no way I'm uploading 720p HD video to show a game. No webcams handy either

So is it really true that android can't do such a simple thing? even my old symbian dumb-phone can do that! LOL. seriously wtf man? It's seriously needed when recording stuff!
well i can live with this, but it was a bit wtf moment when i realized it
I've never owned a phone that can. Or if I never noticed.

Have to agree with this Might fire up one of my old Nokias and test someday though I guess
I can pause while recording using the epic 4g.
Maybe its tw 4.0

I know I am in the wrong forum and not too sure if it would of changed from the SGS1 captivate to the SGS2 but even when I was on stock or custom roms I was always able to pause the video recorder and restart it. I just would hit the record button on screen to records, then hit the record button to pause it. Then hit the record to continue recording. If you hit the stop button it will not continue.

I'm not sure why we can't do it on our phones, but the Samsung Infuse can do it. So its not a limitation of Android, its Samsung's decision not to allow us this feature.

We get a dedicated pause button on our camera. Samsung doesn't love you.
But no seriously, why would they have that in every gs1 phone variant, but not the gsii?
Are you holding it the wrong way?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Well, because I want to have the possibility to choice of recording in a big 1 file (with pause buttom) or in multiples files.
Pause button since my W810i, N96, N97, N8 and N900.
Very strange indeed, that they removed this feature.
I don't find this as a big problem cause it's fast and easy to put several together using "Video maker".
My friends laughed out on me when GS2 couldn't do a simple job as this when their Nokia phones could Hope GS2 had the pause feature.

Symbian isn't as dumb as you say. Might be a disaster commercially all right though ...
Good question actually makes a refreshing change to see a valid question on here as opposed to "can i root" what is the best ROm for battery life" and other such nonsense that is duplicated on here on a daily basis!!
This isn't something ive ever thought of and if i was recording something chances are i wouldn't be pausing, however knowing you have the option to do this would be very good indeed and i too am puzzled why this option is not available on the SGSII?
maybe it's something some devs could look into?

Strange thing is both functions and the image for pausing(camera_pause.png) are included in the Camera.apk of SGSII, will see if I can bring it back.

Then we can see some pausing action in my GS2! Gonna do a matrix kind video with it Good luck!
I just shot a video of my son playing there and there is no definitely no option to pause the video, surely some dev can come up with some hack here?
Anybody found a solution or an alternative video recorder ?
I'm gonna check camera apk and see what can be done.

ok... i know this has probably been asked about a million and twelve times....
But i was wondering if there was anyway to boost the FPS of 720p Video when recording.
not happy with just 14fps... or sometimes even 7!!
if anybody can help thanks
You should use the search option.
but it depends on your Rom/Firmware an if your rooted.

The fps you get is dependent on the lighting situation. If your only getting 14fps...that is under lower lighting. Outside on a bright day you can easily get 24fps. Which is where its capped. If someone tries to claim they get 30fps when shooting 720p i want to see proof.
i did try the search option but found nothing for 2.3. i was also wondering if there was anyway to make the frame rate a constant number instead of changing...
possible?
thanks

I applied the wifirootcamera fix file and it left my phone stuck on boot. The first time I didn't make a backup so I had to reinstall everything from and old back up I made a long time ago :/
Restoring backup and trying the other fix file.
EDIT: Applied the second fix file and I don't know what to check if its fixed. Wifi connected a little quicker though. Still had some problems but worked a little faster.

And I know what you mean with those black lines. I got those on stock rom too. I'm guessing its a hardware thing. But I've only noticed them when I see the pics on the phone and not on the pc. And also, its only in a couple of pics too so its not really all that.
Try the MIUI Camera app.. i think it is slightly better than the CM7 camera.. also it has touch to focus.. i.e focus anywhere on the screen..

You will need CWM recovery, i dont think root is necessary. and no i dont play games much on my phone so i didnt use it, others use it, you can check their reviews in the posts.
If you dont have CWM and your bootloader hasnt been unlocked, you can get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32712631
after installing CWM, just download the mod, and follow the instructions provided by the dev.
