[Q] get better fps with hox+ - HTC One X+

I have a AT&T HOX+ that is rooted still running sense. The fps on the video camera is appalling. I take a lot of videos and need better stability and smoother videos. I am ok with 720p if thats that i can get but even when on 720p i see dropped frames. Is there a way to get better HD videos on this phone?

anyone?

[Q] Any cure for low-res photos / no video from the G-Tab camera with CM7?

I see scattered posts all over the forums about taking pictures with the G-Tab's camera - only to have them come out highly pixelated and very, VERY low resolution. It happens to me under CM7, and has been just as bad with other ROMs I've tried.
And taking videos is simply a non-starter. Freezes after 2 sec and nothing is saveable.
Has anyone come up with a solution/fix? Thanks!
I believe the video recording issue is due to the lack of hardware drivers for video encoding/decoding for Gingerbread...

Definitely Video recording is because there are no hardware drivers available for gingerbread from what i read and for the camera you may want to try another camera app, but it could be related to not having hardware drivers.
Makes sense...except for anyone with Gingerbread! Thanks, all.
BTW, check out the latest CM7 nightly 42... the camera works great including video recording!!!

(slapping forehead) I just went back to VEGAnTab to use the camera. #[email protected]%#^&!
Okay...thanks! Back to CM7.
Is this a new release? Last cm7 i tested was nightlies 41 and cam/ video was all bugged up.
[edit]
WOW awesome they fixed this issue. I'm almost convinced to flash this back on my g tab and test it out again.

Well, sorry. Flashed and still very pixelated stills. Recording a video doesn't crash the app, but nothing in playback except inky darkness. Sigh.
Video works "OK"... not great... pics are still pixelated tho!!

Well that's not quite "the camera works great including video recording!!!" - is it, Craig? Come on, man. Test it before making declarations like that.
Sorry. A little peeved since I reflashed my tab for this.
yeah... it seemed to work great... I wasn't expecting great video quality, so it was what I expected... but the photos looked good in the Gallery app... but were pixelated when I viewed them on my PC...
really sorry for "semi-false" news!!
Still no photo and video for GTab Ginger?
This really is too bad. I have Gingerbread on my GTab and the photo quality is terrible (pixilated) and the video does not work. The photos were really clear before I flashed to Gingerbread. I can't seem to find a satiffactory solution anywhere. Then there is the whole issue of video chat....

gojimi is working on a fix for his VEGANtab ginger edition, no eta yet but like all things gingerbread, eventually it will work.
If you must have camera/video/hardware acceleration for video playback, stick with froyo based roms for now.

[Q] Will installing a custom rom affect the quality of pictures/video recordings?

So, I'm thinking about rooting and installing a custom rom on my European Samsung Galaxy S II. But I've had some previous experiences regarding custom roms on my HTC Desire, whereas the quality of the still pictures and video recordings shot with the camera was drastically decreased. Still pictures looked horrible, and it was not possible to record video in 720 due to a huge amount of lag and stutter. This was the case with the three roms I flashed the HTC Desire with.
I'm not really educated on this subject, so I hope you guys can give me some information.

If so, what is the reason for this?

That doesn't happen on samsung phones at all, must be an htc thing.
If you care that much about camera quality, stick with Touchwiz ROMs. Flashing CM7 or MIUI will decrease the picture and video quality as they use AOSP apps which are worse than Samsung ones.
If you install a custom Samsung rom you should be fine but if you install cm7 or miui I've noticed the quality ain't as high

Okay, thanks. What is the reason for the decrease of quality?

I've used both cm7 and miui and both cameras are noticeably poorer than stock. I may be wrong but may be due to drivers or something as they are aosp based roms. But don't go by my word on reasoning. The pictures look fine on the phone but once you view them on a bigger screen you see the differences in quality.
When I get time I want to test various camera apps and compare them to stock using same conditions, don't think we have a thread like that.

shooting uncompressed pictures with SGS II , possible ?

Hi ,.
is there any MOD or hack for SGS II camera , enables us to shoot uncompressed pictures , (for better quality),.
THX
use any custom camera app like camera360 and set the quality level to 100%, stock camera app does compress the image @ 90%

I saw a post on here (CM9 discussion thread maybe ? Not 100% certain) bout 3-4 months ago saying someone was working on giving the SGS2 the ability to shoot pictures in RAW. Haven't seen anything further since, and I'm not sure it was in that CM9 thread.

That would be amazing. I was wondering if it was possible to get RAW images from the SGS2 camera. Can't afford a DSLR
That's the thing tho, is it even possible ? Yeah, it would be pretty good. Wonder if that would iron out the various 'artifacts' you sometimes see in images taken with the SGS2 ? (like the red/pink blotch, poor quality in low light, etc, etc). May not even be possible with the hardware no matter what's done with the firmware.

[Q] CAMERA shutter speed

I am just wondering, is the shutter speed of the camera software based or hardware based... just seen how fast the galaxy sIII camera shutter is and even that of the google nexus compared to the one EVO3D have... hope its a software base... so that at least there is a chance brilliant devs can include it in their custom ROMS...
been asking this for sometime now... but not getting any answer so far..
+1 to this.

I remember reading some time ago that Chad was working on adding zero shutter lag to the 3d through his kernel, but it would break the 3d capabilities of the camera. It did not happen afaik, but I am not sure if it was because it ended up not being possible due to hardware or what.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2
I don't use 3D that much so zero lag on 2D would be nice.
im pretty sure its hardware, but i dont know, in the recent ICS leak, the roms that have been coming out have been outstanding but it seems the shutter lag has gotten slower then the GB bulid roms. it could just be me though.
have that feeling too.. but cant try the gb stock rom now... just dont want to go backwards...

Same here, since I went to MeanROM ICS my battery has been burning faster, but the user interface of ICS is worth it... not to mention the facial recognition lock screen? oh yeah...
There's a camera app called Fast Burst Camera that you guys could try, there's a feature limited free version, and a pay version, i was looking forward to chad's zsl... but anyways, i like the results of the lite version but only been using it for 2 days, i read somewhere that the app actually records a video and then give you the frames. Am planning on upgrading my phone so am not paying for the app. Anyways give it a try...let us know how was your exp. with the app...

yup, just tried it and it works... the pix is not as nice as the one taken from mwakious cam mod though..... hey wait,,, if this app can force our camera to shoot at that speed... then there is a great possibility smart devs can do something about this with the stock camera apps....???????????????????
also, it will force open the stock cam apps if you press the shutter for the continuos shots...

How is the quality? Since video tends to be recorded at a lower resolution that still pictures, I would think that would reduce quality by doing it this way.

Galaxy S4 front facing camera choppy and very laggy!

Hello, I have a Verizon Galaxy S4. Pretty impressed with it, besides the fact the front facing camera seems cheap. It seems like the front facing camera fps or frame rate is horrible, and drops in low light. I know about about how some fps will drop blah blah blah. I'm just concerned. I tested my old HTC Rezound and Motorola Photon 4G's front facing camera's, and they kept a crispy, and fixed 30FPS in any condition in lighting, including almost pitch black! The S4 FPS is barley getting like.. 8FPS if that, and super choppy and blurry. In light, it's great of course. If it's not super bright, it's horrible.
Im running HyperDrive RLS 9.1 DeLuXe with stock ME7 kernel.
I don't understand why this is happening to such a hyped phone.
Does it have anything to do with my camera firmware?

Its a problem with the ME7 and the stock kernel. flash a different kernel and that should fix it.

Thank you, I will give this a shot. Can you DM or post a link of kernels that are compatible with my Hyperdrive RLS 9.1? What kernels are compatible with being flashed in safestrap?
Thank you very much for the quick reply man, I appreciate it. Really.

Hi I'm experiencing the same problems, from day 1, using stock everything, no root of anything else. I'm on nc5,dknt know about my kernel. Should I flash something through Odin?
