Hi, will the camera app on the evo 3d get upgraded when the ICS push comes to it?

Ask HTC.
In all seriousness... I don't think we really know. In theory, yes because the ICS camera has a lot more features. Does HTC HAVE to use it? No... they can reuse the same one we have now, they can use the one from their new Sense 4.0 software, they can use something entirely different.
But don't expect that much more of an improvement in image quality. The lens and sensor are permanent. You can't change that.

MT4G Camera on CM

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

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.

I agree, camera 360 is the best camera for the mytouch 4g!

this was my only gripe with cm7 the freagin camera...
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.

Camera from HTCAmaze(from Evo3d GSM forums)

Not sure if this should be posted here, but considering it needs some development, and it is in the GSM dev forums, I figured it should go here.
Anyway, a couple of days ago I installed V2 and it worked pretty good, but had a few force closes. At that time there was .apk's to install. Now theyre up to V4, and its a flashable zip that doesnt appear to work on our devices. When flashed through recovery, the flash fails at the Model_id check. Not sure if someone here can fix this so its flashable on our phones? seems like a pretty cool camera.
Check it out

Here, try this. I swapped out the model with our version of the Evo3D. I haven't flashed it, but you can test.
Note: Standard disclaimer. I take no responsibility, blah blah blah...
Edit: Updated script
I got pretty much everything working

Thanks for fixing! I tried flashing your modified version, it flashed fine,but unfortunately it wiped my device and didnt install the new camera. Also broke the lock screen. No biggie, I got a nandroid backup, so all good! Hopefully sac23 will put up the version he tweaked....

That's what I get for not reading it all the way through, sorry about that. It was supposed to format cache, but the block devices are different so it formatted system. I'll update it and take that one down.
Edit: Fixed, it won't nuke your system now. Not sure if those libs that are included are going to work or not. YMMV.

No need to apologize! New version worked great! Well at least I think it did. Not sure about those libs either, guess we'll see!

My guess is those libs are compiled against the kernel for the GSM version and won't work. But...then again they might. Good luck, sir!
So the only thing that doesn't seem to be working is 3d pics. It takes the picture, but then immediately crashes to the desktop. Along with the issues already posted in the GSM section. So far those libs dont seem to be causing any issues. But then again its 5am, haven't really had a chance to really use anything but the camera.

I think the amaze is a 3d camera. You can actually preview the 3d perfectly. Just when you take a pic, it freezes for a few secs and then crashes.

Can anyone report on shutter lag? Only thing I find unusable about the Evo 3D camera: shutter lag is at best (with fastest settings, preview off, etc.) 0.5 seconds.

From the GSM forum......it seems we need updated kernel with ZERO SHUTTER LAG driver included. So, if HTC doesn't give even kernel src for us we have only choice to wait for new STOCK kernel with ZSL driver.
ZSL means fast speed than galaxy s 2 camera?
Thats one thing I miss
Doesn't work for non rooted evo 3D phone.

Yes, the. zip in the 2nd post flashes, and works pretty good, except the camera crashes when taking 3d pics. 2d works great.
Any way to use this without root? And can you install as a separate app? That would be cool.
boom!! from my shooter
Doesnt the MyTouch 4g slide use the same camera? that released right around the time of the E3D too. anyone know if that source got released?
I cant get hdr to work (it takes pic but no different than any other pic), burst wont select, and there were a couple others that didnt work. In 3d mode, in addition to crashing, it doesnt adjust the exposure and alignment is way off so i dont think the amaze has the 3d software programmed.

HTC Amaze Camera App?

I've been very impressed with the camera on my HTC Amaze (Wind). However, I've been wondering why we don't seem to have the same camera app that's shown in all the reviews around the web. That nifty looking camera app with a ton of features is not present on my phone. Instead it seems to have the old HTC camera app (I think). I was wondering why this is? Did T-Mobile make some sort of deal with HTC that made the app exclusive to their phones or something? If so, is there a way I can get that app on my HTC amaze without rooting?
Thanks!
Hmm.. Yeah. I haven't noticed it until I saw your post but...
The Canadian version of the camera app is different.
I just flashed to Bulletproof, so I don't exactly remember... but I actually think some of the settings are different.
You can watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDLsOw34SUA around the 3:00 minute mark to see what our stock camera looked like.
Now if it was actually a newer/older version or not, I don't know.

ya that's the old camera software, I don't know why you still have that...have you updated the software on your phone to the latest? if not flash a custom rom!!! bulletproof I hear is a good one!
I believe I am up to date. I kind of want to avoid rooting my phone this time around (at least until HTC drops it). I found rooting and ROMing to be a time waster, annoying, and to ultimately provide me little benefit (often actually made things worse) on my old phone (Milestone XT720), so I'm trying to avoid rooting atm (might be different experience on this phone, but still)... Anyway to get that camera app without rooting?

I am not sure, you should ask someone more experienced like a developer. you can also call HTC and tell them about this issue!!
You would need to replace the stock app in the system directory and I'm pretty sure you can't do that without root. Having said that, I'm pretty sure you can install another camera app and use that instead...if you really want, try downloading one of the custom roms and pulling the Camera.apk out and installing it.

[Q] Fix for Flipped Camera on SGP 4.0 (YP-G1)?

Is there a way to fix the flipped camera (for some apps) on the Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 (YP-G1) while still being able to use the stock rom?
Uhh... anyone?
Seriously? Nobody has a fix for this?

I remembered that in the old CM7 days, using the US camera libs caused the camera to go flipped. However when using the Intl camera libs, the camera was in the right orientation. Perhaps you could try that to see if it'll work?
Btw sorry for taking so long to reply, I haven't seen that post.
Where would I obtain these libraries, and how would I install them?

Sorry that no one really addressed your question. The galaxy player dev community is kinda fading away since, well, the device is getting older and less practical, so there are less users. Anyways, see here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1848595
Also, if you're still on gingerbread, you may just want to flash the REDD rom. Check it out. That personally gave me the best gingerbread experience. Of course, cm9 and later in my opinion are all better.
Oh my god... this worked.... THIS ACTUALLY WORKED! THANK YOU!!

Is there anything that can be done about the camera? I find it very slow. My wife has a HTC One and its much faster.
