Last i checked and tested, any 4.2 Camera port is for AOSP ROMs only. I have not found one nor gotten it to work on anything other than AOSP ROMs. I may be wrong, just stating my experiences.

D'oh. Well I like to stay on Stock-Based roms because I like full functionality of the dock, but thats not too important I guess, but I'm using a 4.2 camera on Hydro 7.0 right now, and its working fine, would this be cause its specifically made for the TF300T?

i have sony xperia s , rooted , unlocked bootloader , running android v4.1.1 AOKP_nozomi_unofficial_KXP_Sep-16-12
iam having trouble with the camera , i can't find it in apps drawer and if i try to access it through lockscreen shortcut it opens the camera app and it says can't access camera , is there camera modules to flash or something like that , about 1 month ago i had sony ericsson xperia x10 i flashed unofficial aokp rom and there was camera modules and they worked !
please i need help , and i love this rom the best . i don't want to change the rom only for this thing
Sources are not yet available for certain components, camera included. There's been no camera for unofficial ROMs since dinosaurs roamed this planet. I should also note that on the first post of the first page of the Xperia S AOKP thread, it does state that camera is not working.
Of course, that's not to say that it won't be available in the future. The camera features were probably removed because of this, just to avoid setting people up for disappointment.

Just to fix something: If it was exactly like you said, the X10 Mini/Pro, X8 would never have camera on JB. They ( Sony) finished updates with 2.1.

Hi welcome to SGS2 forum
Just some advice first, In here we expect some common sense when asking for help and common sense would dictate that you give relevant information like what rom and kernel you're using etc etc.
Have you checked your roms thread for info?
Have you re-flashed?
Tried other kernel?

It happens on stock rom, diaster and slim. I havent tried other roms yet.
You know skype, google+, stock camera so i can take pictures of me making duckface
that is certainly interesting, i have seen a few roms with actually broken camera apps, that give errors, once you activate the silly faces effect on the front facing camera.
also there is a known bug of google+ on several samsung devices including ours, that makes hangouts less than pleasant, i.e. not working at all most of the time.
but given that you experienced it on several roms and in all circumstances actually points to kernel issues, i agree with theatheist. (the rest was just for general information).
when it comes to recommending kernels, it really comes down to what rom you are currently running and personal preference.
I just had a brand new GS3 and have been playing with it quite a lot these past days
I've done many things such as root it, download free paid apps with it, used different launchers with it, etc.
But the latest thing I did, to see what all the fuss was about was to upgrade my GS3 to Cyanogenmod 10.1 Nightly
I mean a lot of people are doing it so I thought it was all good, well at least at the beginning it seemed to be
I have to say at first glance it seemed like a great deal for me, having a spanking new lockscreen, notification bar, overall stock phone and messaging applications, and a sleek looking camera
Everything looked fine, until I tried out many of the new stuff out...
First of all the new camera was pretty ok but had one major drawback for me, the HDR mode
You see in the original GS3 ROM the cameras HDR mode was like lightning, you wouldn't notice that it takes separate photos to make the unified, balanced exposure photo
While in the new camera you can notice a time delay of something like .2-.5 seconds between each photograph that the camera takes in order to make you new HDR photo
The result? a badly stitched photo because of shaky hands. And even using "great" paid camera apps produced the same results
Next in the phone application itself, it looked nice and dandy until I noticed that the option for video calling totally disappeared...
And can I say video calling is by far one of my most used things in my GS3 if not the most after the texting and normal calls
I mean hey, I can make a video call anytime anywhere without internet isn't that awesome?!?
Well actually those two are my only real problems... the others could be the disappearance of my stock Samsung apps such as S Note or S Memo but those can be easily replaced with similar apps from the Play Store, and of course what other stock Samsung apps that dissapeared were the Samsung App store, S Voice, etc. which I liked to have been taken out
That said the Cyanogenmod ROM for me looked more like a launcher with added features but nothing else more, it did not have much of it's own "original" apps and that was kind of okay I guess
BUT MY CONCLUDING QUESTION IS
are all custom ROMs like this? will they all overwrite my beautiful video calling and camera capabilities or was it just the Cyanogenmod ROM?
I'm looking up into other ROMs like "Universe S4 ROM" or "Imperium ROM" for my GS3 and just wanted to know before I either invest a good amount of time or just waste it if those ROMs will or will not take out the bad and add mroe good to my GS3 especially the "Universe S4 ROM" since it said that it will add apps that are exclusive to the GS4 like the S Translate.
Thanks in advance for the replies!
CM and camera is a well posted problem .
You have to do some research first then decide if what the custom rom offers outweighs the bugs .
The S4 apps are a work in progress some work 100% some fail others have bugs that developers try and solve .
You would be better to stick with a stock rooted rom or even a bare bones stock custom Samsung rom .

It has nearly all the apps from the galaxy s4 you can get from the aroma launcher ( In recovery)
And my battery life is extended to nearly 3 hours more!

Thank you very much for this!
I'm still wondering if there are custom ROMs that still have the video call and camera the GS3 or are my only options really those bare bones stock custom Samsung ROMs? If so where can I look to have an easier time finding those types of ROMs I need?
And is an GS4 ROM one of those stock rooted ROM or bare bones stock custom Samsung ROMs that you're talking about or is it a totally different ROM already that doesn't have the video call and camera that I'm looking for?
Because I see all of these ROMs and their offers but I don't know where to look within the forums to know if they do or do not have the two simple aspects that I'm looking for.

Thanks too for this!
But as with the other reply I still have the same question.
Can I still make standard Samsung/Android video calls with this one and is the S4 camera that comes with this as good (or better) than the S3 camera?
I really do hope it does and I'll give it a shot!

By default, this ROM comes with S3 camera. You can find the S4 camera in Aroma. But the S4 camera is quite buggy, video recording some other functions are not wroking yet. Henry is trying his best to make it work. I would reccomend you to try Glamour S4 ROM. Brilliantly smooth and excellent.
In my opinion, cyanogenmod is the most overrated rom in the android. Just a little speed improvement and lots of missing features and problems.
You should try roms based on samsung roms.

I'd like to ask what ROMs would those be?
Or at least what or where should I search to know if the ROMs would be Samsung based?
Are there indicators?

Surprisingly it worked on Badboyz rom 3.2.
Just try it out for yourselfes, it seems promising to me!

But none of these let me adjust video brightness, which is sad.
Only Open Camera does that.
Anyone has a good video camera alternative?
Stock is sooo dim.
It's been talked about many times now so try a search.
People found snap camera to work very well.
Did your photo quality improve?

You are the one who needs to do some reading I think.
I made this thread for a camera app that did not exists when people were talking about the alternative camera apps, also no one talked about the video brightness in snap cam or any other cam app to be honest.
I did my searching before posting, maybe you should do your reading as well.

I have the Camera2 API Enabler Magisk module installed, but the official GCam from Play Store is only compatible with Android Pie.
Should I just find an older version of GCam for Oreo? Or is it more complicated than that?

We used to have very active V30 Gcam thread, but the most popular version was from @Cstark. I suggested he start a dedicated thread down on the mods sections, because his kept being drowned out by the others in the "everything" thread.
It worked (February 2018) and the other "general Gcam" thread died out as his version was clearly the best. However, he had to widen the scope to other LG models because all the other LG model owners came in here begging it also work for their camera.
Suddenly it wasn't "GCam for V30", it became [GCam] [Wide Angle] LG G5,LG G6,LG V20,LG V30.
Stuff like this was also going on for in other forums for other brands like OnePlus, etc. So, a few months later XDA decided to MOVE all the GCam threads to another section of XDA:
Google Camera Mods
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/google-camera-mods
Also about this time, @Cstark stopped developing for the V30 as he got another phone, but someone else stepped in to continue his work. He never re-named his thread, so even though it says v 4.2 it's well past that.
Someone also created a thread in that forum section for the succcessor's mods, which work on a lot of phones:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78054159&postcount=2
You are right it's a popular question, but that's where it's all being discussed.
Gotcha, thoroughly detailed as always
I once spent a fair amount of time and effort keeping track of different GCam mods. Then I lost interest, because the stock cam was always the most reliable.
Several times it happened that there was a good photo taking opportunity in a trip or so, and working through different GCam issues, options and settings botched it. So, I am back to using stock camera. The best picture is the one you already took, not the one you could have taken.
Individual experience may vary.

I feel the same way. On rooted stock, the switch between cameras (wide angle, front/back) always works seamlessly, there's no green tint on any...
I even have access to G7/V40 improvements through the Anxious V30 Magisk module.
One of the reasons I never installed a custom ROM, because I use stock camera.

Aside from the green tint on the selfie cam, Arnova's 1.7 (Gcam 6.1.021) works great for me. I don't take selfies, so I don't care about that.
For fast/quick pictures, I use the stock camera app. But if I want to tinker, play, or use night-sight, this Gcam works well for me. Night sight just takes a little longer to do its thing. In the end, I have both available, so it's not a big deal to me.
Do you guys download any GCam apks from celsoazevedo? I thought I had found a link there for a specific version for the V30 but I can't find that link anymore. The OP on the cstark27 thread has a link for 5.1 but people in the comments are talking about a 6x version, but I can't find the download link and I don't want to click through 200 pages of posts to try to find it
So far I'm agreeing that the Stock Cam is just fine, however I did take a picture in Portrait Mode on GCam5 and it looks outstanding. And since I just recently got this phone, I wanna play around with GCam and see if I can find something that works for me. Currently I have Stock Cam, GCam5, and GCam6 all installed but I'd like to find one that works best instead of having 3 separate cameras. Got those from the /r/lgv30 sticky

I use stock and GCam5. I don't even bother with trying to find a GCam6 that works fully because there isn't one and probably won't be one. The only good use of GCam6 is the night sight. But I hardly ever have a time where I need it. I mainly use GCam5 for pictures because it does a better job of processing the photos. And Stock Camera for video because it has more options.

Yeah I eventually found the link again from the reddit page, but the cstark27 GCam 5 seems to be the most reliable. The only thing it's missing is Night Sight but I can just use the stock cam for that.

Have you tried Open Camera? It's surprisingly good, at least compared to the default cam in LineageOS.
