I have no idea if potatoman's custom camera mod has any flaws,
but I do know for a fact that the stock camera in our SGS2 phones
do achieve the full 30fps in all video recording modes except in the
very highest HD video mode where it only achieves approx 25fps
which is really excellent too.
Check it out yourselves using a windows app called MediaInfo, it's a
free download: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/MediaInfo
It adds an option in explorer so when you right click on a video file it will
add an option called "mediainfo" and all you do is click that and a box will
popup with useful information about the video including exact frame rates.

When you do make these new fps tests, be sure to make two of them.
One at the highest video settings which is HD 1080p it's at the top of the
list which normally is the default setting.
Then go down one step to the second choice in the list which is HD 720p.
You will find that the HD 720p setting will achieve the full 30fps while
the the highest settings HD 1080p in the list achieves at least 25fps.
(which is very good too)
Okay I am aware of this the mod I spoke of guess you 30fps on highest setting 1080p which is what I was wondering if anyone has tested it seems I might be the first also will back up current files

Camera on that particular rom seems snappier and higher clarity.
Haven't tried any videos yet I know pic quality is awesome but need to do a video for it I did read audio is better
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
Did anyone ever try this out for the I777? I noticed on Potatoman's old thread that he now recommends the lgcamera app from the market. Is this hack baked into any of the roms here, or was that just something that the OGS2 devs added?
I use to use that camera in my rom but it had issue with 1080p focusing and also had audio/video sync issues. I believe that was due to the fps hack.
So I modded mine to up the audio only for both 720p/1080p.

Moblynx has taken the ICS camera app, tweaked it with some added features, and added support for 2.2/2.3 phones. There is a free version with ads or $.99 for the non-ad version. IThere's a short review over on Android Central, and it's called "Camera ICS" on the market. I'd post links but I can't do that yet.

(Q) Why can't I open camera during call?

Is this typical on all of the roms? I was on a call and went to send my wife a picture of what I was looking at in messaging and got a popup saying can't open camera during call. Never really noticed it before but was wondering if it was the stock camera app or the phone. I'm on Saurom VI with Att fix.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Yes this is normal. Every android phone I have had works this way
Yes mine does the same thing.
Sent from my SGH-I717R using XDA
stock camera does that but some of the cam aps from the market work just fine during a call
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Cool, thanks to know. Seems kind of silly that I can't take a picture while I'm on the phone. I don't think the camera makes the earpiece work......lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Not all of them work this way. The GSII did not and neither did the GSII SR. At least on the official ROMs I played with the camera worked during a call. I have not tried that on the Note.
What would be the logic of disabling the camera while on a call.?

That's what I thought. It's not like it needs the phone radio to open.

Its more about the resources that the phone uses while on a call and the camera. The are both huge ram hogs. And we know what happens when the system gets taxed too much.

Zero shutter lag

Hey guys does anyone know how I can get zero shutter lag on the galaxy note
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Download a different camera app, i use ics camera

Is this the one you are referring to? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moblynx.cameraics&hl=en
Yeah, that's the one...I donated and use the ICS+ version. The app has been updated and now includes burst mode. It's does a decent job at reducing the shutter lag. It's still there, but much improved.

Is the lag in the shutter or is it just a lag in the shutter sound?
I use many camera apps actually, but my two favorite are ICS Camera, and Fast Burst Camera, which is fantastic. Zero shutter lag when using that.

[Q] s3 ROM for s2?

All that I can find is Nexus's ICS
And jb
Is there any s3 ROM for s2?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Nope ...but there are themes and mods to get your phone to look like the S3
Na , i want the ROM for its uses not for beauty
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Some features like smart stay and pop up video have been implemented on the S2. Others,like the camera functionality, which are h/w dependent obviously won't be possible on the S2.

Which camera stuff?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Burst photography. There are apps available on the market that can do it but nothing near as good as the s3 camera does. Also the ability to take pictures while recording video.

Ah i see. However for the latter, the HTC One series includes this feature. On my DS the feature was ported from the One V Sense ROM and it works. But it lags a bit though.
I guess with the S3 Mini, we should have some decent ROM pets as they have the same size screen.

You could use PC if your phone supports 60, 90 or 120fps.... Check in settings.
That way slowing it down witb pc sw won't make video laggy.
I just had to get a new phone and I got the Samsung galaxy s5 lol it has way better battery life and the camera is so much better with slow motion built in. I guess that is the only way till a Dev makes a app for all androids
