(Q) Replace stock camera app - Motorola Photon 4G

I was reading up on some of the posts about using the d3 camera as well as stock GB camera. But it seems most of those ended up not working as well as i dont remember any of them being done on the stock rom. I would just like to know if its possible to replace the stock camera app with a better one. I am currently Rooted and have cwm/bootstrap installed. Thanks in advance.

[Q] Rooted ICS 4.0.x Amaze 4G Camera?

I apologize in advance if my question is answered elsewhere on the forums. I looked for a while to no avail.
Has anyone come across a zip or an apk for the stock Amaze camera in 4.0? I have just recently rooted and flashed a custom rom that I like very much, but I miss the functionality of the camera. Gonna roll back to stock for now, but any info or assistance on how to get this in a custom ICS rom would be fantastic. I found the 2.3.5 kernel flash and the corresponding camera .zip but I assume it does not work as it is for GB.
Thanks,
Dave P.

Um, what? You lost me there.
I updated to ICS and flashed a custom rom, but the camera apk that came with it was not the Amaze Camera. I found the thread with the .zip for the Amaze camera but it was for Gingerbread. I tried flashing it (Several times to be safe) but it just force closes.
Is there an ICS version, or am I doing something wrong with the GB version?

That works fine, but I'd advise you to browse to system/apps and delete the TMOCamera.apk and copy the file from the HQ zip file, rename it to TMOCamera.apk or it won't work, but still flash the zip so you won't have to copy the other files as well.

Flash a sense 3.6 rom and tell me if it's working.
i have flashed sense 3.6 rom dont have a stock rom but tried yoda's ics, cool ics and some how sad ics. Sad ICS wasn't working at all i.e bootloop but other two are working perfectly except camera
Doh, cam must be broken. Sounds like a hardware problem. Ofc you can try flashing a RUU, maybe that will help, not sure though.

Custom ROM installed, camera not working in any of them

Hi,
I just learned how to root, unlock bootloader, install custom recovery, and ultimately install a custom ROM.
I have tried installing Carbon ROM and Mondified, but the camera is not working. Any possible way to get them to work on those ROMS, and if not, is there another ROM I can install to fix the camera issue? To be specific, on Carbon ROM it will take pics, but not focus. On the Mondified ROM it will not focus or even take pics.
I am also thinking about the possibility of flashing stock ROM, but for some reason the FlashTool does not recognize my device hence I cannot flash stock FW.
Thanks in advance,
j
I think carbon ROM is CM11 based which means that since CM11 Camera doesn't work Carbon ROM Camera wont work

Yeah, AOSP and/or cm based rooms are having camera problems currently. That's the reason I stick with Sony roms on this device. I love AOSP, but the Sony UI is very close to stock Android, closer than any other manufacturer except perhaps Motorola. Throw in a few xposed modules to tweak things to your liking and forgettaboutit!

[Q] Camera and custom roms

sorry if this ha been asked before, I tried searching but could not find a definite answer I've been away Xda-developers for a while, but I am now looking to upgrade my S3 ROM, maybe using a custom build 4.4, but I remember the camera didn't had all the functions of the stock ROM, is this still the case? I use the camera extensively so its an important part for me, should I just stick with a modified stock ROM?
Stock based roms is what you want if camera is important to you.
working?
Thank you, I imagined that was the case, but wanted to make sure

Install Stock Camera on CM Mod?

I just flashed CM (used Superbass excellent instructions) and LOVE the phone again. It is FAST and works flawlessly. The only thing I miss is the stock Camera app. Is there any way to install the stock Huawei Camera app on a phone that is running CM? I am not really experienced at rooting and installing custom ROM's so any help is appreciated!
It's been asked several times. Nope.
