So I was able to load the camera 4.2 after some work. Camera work, Parana works, PhotoSphere... not so much. I can open it (after some edits to a file), but it doesn't seem to really work... I can't align my blue dot 95% of the time, and when I do, it doesn't seem to move to the "next" step.
I thought I read somewhere that you need a gyro in the phone in order to use PhotoSphere. Not sure on that... just read it in passing (I thought), but can't find it now. I have no idea if that's the issue or not.
Just found this:

So, yeah, looks like it needs the gyroscope which apparently the Razr doesn't have. Bummer.
I have it working on my og razr.

Same issue as OP here. The camera app itself works well though.

I just downloaded the new Update for Qik and it looks like it runs on CM7
downside to it is that it only detects the back camera boo!
i just tried the Tmobile version, im going to download the other one see if it works.
thanks for throwing this up ima test now also main
Thats been the issue all along. It only detects the back camera since the code they use to access the front camera is totally wrong.

Well thats an improvement. Still not very useful for video chat though. I believe tango was finally updated to work correctly.

I am looking for an app that will work for video conferencing/chat. Any suggestions?
Or even better, is there a way to use the gTab and video-chat with friends on other traditional PC-based IM services like Yahoo, Live, AIM or Skype?
If none of these work? What do you use the camera for?
I really have not found a use for it yet.
FYI, I am using Calkulin ROM 1.1 (very stable and good battery life).
Yahoo Messanger for Android has a plugin for video/audio, but the people that i wanted to test with are never available when i was.

The only thing I use the camera on the gTab for is to read barcodes and/or QR Codes for Market apps so I can fire off downloads/installs of apps directly on the gTab.

My pictures don't come out nearly as decently as this one. They look okay in the shapshot preview, but then when I open the file they are pixelated beyond belief and look awful. I am running CM7. What settings do you have for your camera?
Thanks for any help you can give.
I really haven't found a use for it. It surely doesn't work well enough to take pictures with.

I think Tango is your best bet since Skype doesn't support video chat on Android....yet

Installs and runs fine, but it crashes as soon as you tap capture. Too bad, seems like a cool app.

Does it capture? The app runs for me but crashes on capture. You too?

His post here is marked 3.23pm and his post on the original thread saying it works on the Atrix is 3.24pm. That's not enough time to install and test, so I call BS!
I am installing right now and will test.
Script won't flash with CWM, so I'm going to just try installing the panorama.apk.
Application not installed is message I get when trying to run apk.
I can't get it to install.
<edit> Managed to flash a modified fix.zip file. Trying to install apk now. Application installed. Trying to test now.
I didnt use the script. I placed the files within the zip manually, set permissions, rebooted. Then installed the apk.

App starts, but when I begin panning/recording I get FC like you.
@Chubby.........please post a panoramic picture you have taken, as you seem to be the only person to get this working on the Atrix.
I too got an error in cwm, the modified .zip worked. Thanks. On boot up "live logcat" is showing alot of extra pink text, not sure what that means, maybe nothing since Im using the lite version.. Anyways, apk installed. App chrashes on "shoot" too. But the led flashlight works haha.
I don't think it will work for Atrix. There is a SIGILL signal generated by /data/data/com.sonyericsson.panorama/lib/libGmvPanoramaAndroid.so because of unsupported processor instruction.
The code disassembly at address 0x1dc04 of libGmvPanoramaAndroid.so shows:
.text:0001DC04 VLD1.8 {D24-D25}, [R2]!
.text:0001DC08 VLD1.8 {D20-D21}, [R12]!
.text:0001DC0C VLD1.8 {D22-D23}, [R2]!
.text:0001DC10 VLD1.8 {D18-D19}, [R12]!
VLD is an Advanced SIMD (NEON) instruction and Atrix's processor is non-NEON that's why it generates an error when executed and terminates the process.

I dunno. Also tried the app. It didn't work.
Maybe he was too early to post that it was working when he saw the app running but without testing the actual picture taking.
I tried running this with Chainfire3D and a couple plugins, same results: Crash on capture.

Just search posts by him and you'll get the "picture"! No pun intended!
There was no testing. The app FC's on Atrix as soon as you try to use it!
Okay so the linked post was updated with more supported phones. The Atrix is not one of them. I wont get a chance to try these updated files until tonight. If anyone else does try them please let us know if they are working. I will report back after tonight.

I dunno if it's the dual cams, or GB, but all my screen shots are borked.
I've tried ShootMe and ScreenShot which just distort the images something fierce.
I've seen some people post screen caps so it must be possible but I havent seen a single post here about it and I've had nothing but problems....
Whatcha using, or whats the workaround ?
[edit
This is what they come out like...
DroCap2 works a treat for me.
give that one a shot, it's free and on marketplace as well.
Thx bud, as you said, works a treat...
DDMS tool - Android SDK
I use the DDMS tool that you can find in the Android SDK package.
How do you get it to not show the start and cancel options
Edit : got it had to use notification trigger and set the image as jpeg if not they'd come out choppy

Doesn't work properly for me. Seems buggy. Most of the time when it captures a screen, you see the "DroCap2 has been granted superuser..." popup on top of what you are capturing. And most of the time the screen has improper line shifts and blocking issues where it appears the screen got captured mid-refresh.

I also use Android SDK/DDMS. Will try DroidCap2, but i dont have high expectations. No screencap app has worked yet, as im not rooted and wont be until full root is possible (perm).
Did notice tho that live wallpapers cause tearing in the screen caps.
EDIT: Droidcap2 needs root, so i wont be able to try it, so far DDMS has worked well, screenshots on my facebook page linked in my sig
I am hoping this is in the right section, since it would be dev or hacking to get what I am looking for.
I am currently using P3Droid's pre-rooted 2.3.3. Video recording on the camera is limited to 640x480.
Verizon and Motorola's sites both list "720p video recording" as a feature.
What happened to the 720p option?
Can the camera be modded to re-include this option?

When u press menu while in video or camera mode and bring up the settings u should have a choice of which video resolution u would like to use. Unless you don't have the same camera.apk that came with hour phone it may be different then. It should be there though.
Thanks for the reply, however, it is not there. I the highest resolution I have is 640x480.
It's not a problem for me alone evidently, it is listed in this issues thread as well:

The only time I lost being able to GD record((or choose it)) was when I changed my camera apk due to flashing a rom. I pushed the old camera.apk back into system app ..
And it was the camera.apk that I had saved from the prerooted gb update.
Im sorry im not ofit much help. Maybe try sbf and reflash the preroot. Im curious as to whether there might have been different versions floating around. Go mine from a link at droidforums.net I believe.
When I get done work I will see if I can send you a copy of my camera.apk to see id it helps after u push it into system/app if you would like. It would be around 8pm just check ur private messages here
I am using P3Droid's pre-rooted GB SBF. I looked over the forums over there, and cannot find any mention, but I did find mention of it in the thread above. I wonder if I can find a stock camera apk...how would I install that? I am sure it cannot be installed just by opening it.

I will see if I can get that to u on my break today.
It is REALLY easy if I have root explorer. Best app I ever paid for.
Just need to place the apk in the system/app folder and change the permission for it. I will give details later in private message.
Will it harm anything to use the Froyo camera instead of the GB? I am running 2.3.3...
Oh, and it won't let me thank you again, so thanks!

Haha thank you. I don't believe anything bad will happen from using froyo cam. Just to be safe make a nandroid backup before u do it.
Also long press the camera you have and go to change permission just to see which boxes you need checked when you put in your new camera.apk.
No issues here same rom 720p is still the default as well as being selectable,just to throw a monkey wrench into the works

Same here, not sure what OP has going on. Standard GB 2.3.3 X2.
Okay. I was trying to just upload my apk into this thread but I can't seem to choose the file using my phone. My computer isn't working. If I can get to a comp I will do it asap or if I can find another way.
Im having issues recording 720p. I can click the option, even in the pre-rooted gb update. My issue is that I can not get good quality. After 15 or so seconds the video and audio become out of sync and the video "skips" for like 50ms and sometimes longer thus causing issues when uploading to Youtube and Facebook.
Sorry for Hijacking your thread, but this was already started and I felt it was appropriate. As to your question, it sounds like you have an incorrect camera app. You MAY need to flash/inject the camera/camcorder/gallery .apks.. To my knowledge, they all opperate together, because the options work off each other. Have u froze/deleted any of those .apks?
