[Q] Samsung Camera & S-Memo on CyanogenMod - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I really love CyanogenMod 10 but some features (no shutter lag for example) misses me. Is it possible to have the Samsung Camera running on CyanogenMod 10 ?
Thanks

No

Use dual boot for best of both worlds

Try the new 4.2 stock camera first, I'm using it and it seems alot faster than the previous one, plus fixes a few bugs that were present previously.

No touch to focus on any version of CyanogenMod?

I've noticed that since I've been using CyanogenMod that I don't have touch to focus functionality on my camera. My colleague at work has a Galaxy Nexus with CM10, and he has touch to focus (makes sense I suppose being that it's a nexus device). I am wondering why there is no touch to focus functionality on the note with CM9 or CM10 (i'm not using CM10 nightlies).
Is there any way to re-introduce such functionality to my phone, as no touch to focus has made using this camera almost useless.

I had the same question. Even installed the 4.2 camera without any better results. So I'm trying out Snap Camera ($2 in the play store). It offers the 4.2-like interface and the auto focus seems to work relatively well. You'll want to hit up the settings and change the preview size to max though. Otherwise, your preview looks like it came from a J-SH04.

Has any progress been made towards running the TW camera on AOSP ROMs?

Hi there! I recently found out that Siyah Kernel allows dual booting on the S3, so I took the plunge and used it to install RootBox as my second ROM. I'm quite happy with it, but I'd love to have the Samsung camera's features back - particularly, the HDR and low light modes.
Does a mod exist that allows the TW camera to work, or has there been any previous technical discussion of this that may help me in my quest to make one?
I tried to port it myself with my minimal modding skills, but it turned out to be more complex than I expected: the furthest I got was getting the Samsung camera UI to appear and then pop up "Camera failed". I broke camera functionality entirely for all other apps, too
I'm now [slowly] downloading the Android source to see if I can make the necessary modifications to make Samsung's camera libraries work, but in the meantime, I'd love to know if there's something I missed in my searches. All I found was an XDA thread requesting a port of the GS3 camera to the GS2, and a thread on another board which included some interesting info from someone who had tried porting the GS3 camera to AOSP but nothing I didn't already know.
Any info on this would be appreciated. Thank you!
I dont think anyone is even trying. The aosp mod 2.60 in themes section is good but I recommend installing camera 360 from play for effects and cool hdr
The hdr is only an effect though

I took that as a challenge and have been working on it nonstop since yesterday
I have the camera working on my modded ROM now, I'm hoping to release the ROM and the source patches (for applying to other ROMs) once I get more of the features working (I would like to at least fix Low Light and the Camcorder) and knock out a couple issues like the app launching the non-existent TW gallery to view photos.
Here's a video as proof. Apologies for the quality, but I couldn't find a decent screen recording app: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYX4PSVDiIU
Now that I'm here again, I may as well ask- where would the best place be to post this? It's related to both a modded app and a modded ROM so I don't know whether it would fit better in Development or Themes/Apps.
Themes and apps, definitely

2.Is it possible to have the Sony camera app on custom roms?
3. Is there any camera app (on google play store) which could be at the same level with the Sony stock camera app?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for your clear answer :good:
Hmmm...there a lot of 3rd party camera out there that can work as good as stock ICS camera on our devices....you just have to figure out and tested all of them to know which one is better....
in CM11, they use Slim rom camera that work better then what we have in JB rom....the only thing that it lack is maybe HD recording which is base on custom kernel we use in our rom....
i'm currently using PAC 4.4.2 rom and i gotta say camera in that rom is a good as you can get but if you are not satisfied with it then you can use Camera 360 for taking picture and Camera MX for video recording....don't use Perfectly Clear cause that camera work better on devices that have higher ram than 512mb....

Request: MIUI Camera App for 7.1 Rom´s (App or .zip)

Hello Guys
I want to Use the MIUI Camera App in a 7.1 Rom.
Anybody know how to extract the app and install this in a newer Rom?
I know that the . most of the 7.x Rom´s have Camera Issues and we are Happy to make Picture with them but to try a Slow Motion Video/ Timelapse or HDR without a Third Party app out of the Play store would a nice thing be =)

Same for RR ROM. Miui stock app takes better images.
I would love to have the miui camera app on this cm rom too, wow.
I don't think that it'll be possible... And also if you somehow do it, it won't work as good as when you were using it on MIUI... There are some better camera mods to use...
And also i have to ask that MIUI camera's quality is really that better? Or is the difference in the camera quality really noticeable?
I think the MIUI camera takes the best pictures. It's the only reason I haven't moved to a custom rom yet as my daily driver.
I was cm fan but when i tested miui i can't leave this system , it's much better than cm ,and it's more like custom rom rather stock Android
Sent from my Redmi Note 3 using XDA-Developers mobile app
actually miui camera will need various of miui rom api's, so it is very difficult to port
Asked for the same before and from what I understood, porting that app will be super difficult. But I concur the camera app under MIUI is just that good. Would be mint to have it on other ROMs

Yep there is a big difference, if you get the device you will notice
without stock camera there is lot of noises in low light and non of the camera can take image like hdr pro mode in miui cam, and also the manual mode, some of camera enable manual but only limited like shutter speed to 1/s or the max iso to 1600, i tried lots of cam flashable zips or app store app none of them are good.:crying::crying::crying:

Some questions about custom ROM

Hello, everyone! I'm using miui 9 stable currently, and I'm thinking of using Viper OS. I wanna you guys told me about its pros and cons compared to stock rom. I'm a little bit afraid about the camera. Do API2 and Google cam works fine on it? Thanks.

The things you will miss in custom roms are :
1) miui's awesome notification. *sarcasm*
2) white flaslight *its not a bug but a feature *
3) native video calling support from dialer * no use to me * ?
Edit : 4) some bloatware :silly:
