I found that stock rom takes better photos then cm 10.1.
Anyone knows a way to fix it?
In stock rom photos are crystal clear and in CM 10.1 they are in many cases looks like taken in high iso and do not look clear (when shooting indoors).
hey there man
it's a known issue because Samsung refuses to release their source code.
there isn't really a fix for this but you may try a different camera app that may produce a better results.

I can't accept that in all the galaxy models , camera will work badly in CM , which is one of the most popular roms out there!
Anyone know more about this issue?

Sorry but the original galaxy s2 touchwiz camera app relies on Samsung app framework (and a load more other complicated things I wont go into), therefore it can't and can never will be able to work on an AOSP rom like cm9. In other words, it's not possible. I hope this helps you
shame
That's crap.
Thanks for the reply though. The stock camera was the best. Could you recommend a similar app ? Tried camerazoom and its rubbish.
Need a high quality fast camera.
Currently using ifs camera + and its good but focus Is rubbish.
Loving cm9 though )))))))
typo
I meant isc camera + silly me
my phone won't spell ICS.
Ics camera +
f me ! Such a noob.
Sorry guys.
tried ics camera+? works like a charm

no focus options
There are no options to focus ?how can yousayy it works like a charm when there are options missings. Like focus ??
I am surprised why CM9 camera is so big **** compared to the stock :O
So I have been tempted to flash CM10 for a long time but stock features like Multiwindow and Camera app by Samsung keep me from it.
So i wanted to ask if the quality if the pictures in CM10 was as good as stock S3 Camera app? And I saw there are bugs in cam such as touch 2 focus issues with enabled flashlight and recording effects broken. TV Out issue is also a con..
So is it worth using CM10? Why do you use it. I know some people love vanila android but other than that anything else?
Oh and which one do you prefer, 4.2 or 4.1, I assume both builds are stable enough for everyday use.
CM camera is worse

worse in what sense? app is bad or picture quality sucks?
both
Guess I wont be flashing CM10.. why do people use it?
because they like its features and the AOSP look as well as the lack of bloat
Yeap, the camera in CM10 and 10.1 is worse.
But I still use it because I like the stock Android look. Next time I'll just buy a Nexus..

Ok so a couple of things.
I noticed any camera app on a TW rom has what I would describe as graining, I can see pixels constantly changing colour akin to watching a analolue tv signal. If I take photos this affects the photo also. It affects how clear the photo is, I have a photo of an object on my desk eg. that looks brilliant taken whilst was on AOKP. Will try to attach the photos to this post. On the camera on the AOKP rom, this graining is gone, its vanished. (shame the camera app is unstable). Taking a photo of the same object using any camera app on a TW rom has a much less satisfying result. It would seem whatever that driver is thats used on AOSP roms it does offer better quality. Or is it a setting that causes the graining?
Also a few times when usng the camera, it just closes itself, if I am right this is a rom problem? what would cause that behaviour usually? The closing itself only is happening since I switched back to neatrom, so may end up posting this 2nd question in the neatrom thread.
no comments
a update
I took a photo at lower res (as was too big) and then accidently seen all the graining was gone and picture clear again.
so it seems lowering the resolution of the photo does wonders.
so its related to higher pixel count and it appears, obviously one might say the lower resolution hides the problem, possibly. so eg. zooming on on a my 0.8mp 1024x768 picture so its same screen size as the 8mp pic has much higher detail.
I will if time restore my aokp nandroid and test 8pm photos again if I can.
I attached 2 pics, the usb_back is 8mp other is 0.9mp.
I've never seen what you refer to. Generally the tw camera is better quality because samsung didn't release their camera HAL source so its quality can't be reproduced

I put AOKP back on for more testing, showed some freinds and they picked out all AOKP pics as clearly better, extra options in the app (jpeg quality and more focus options as well as special affects) and the quality is simply better full stop.
the TW cam got ported for AOSP anyway.
so just flash the TW cam and u got the same quality. (theme / addons section in this forum)

This is on your device. Maybe you have a problem with your camera when on touchwiz.

where is it? and i want aosp on tw not other way round the tw camera gui is aweful so even if quality fixed i wouldnt like using it.
i brought a professional camera app which a few on here reccomended, great improvement over tW interface but imo not as good as AOSP interface and it closes by itself a lot. It also doesnt fix the quality issue and when I run the app on AOSP the quality is fixed so the quality seems related to the samsung camera driver not app.

Could even be camera firmware/driver issue.
my opinion , both are same

since they part of the rom/kernel thats why I said I would try different rom.
I will also try a different kernel on same TW rom.

I will try it next time I got back to TW, still back on AOKP.
Yep. Im happier with aosp roms too

since I put siyah kernel on the AOKP rom the camera is stable. Might be coincidence but thats the situation at the moment.
well now nothing to fix on the quality.
on the latest 4.1.2 neatrom, the camera quality is good so was an issue with md4 build I guess.

Dude, I dont have any idea about 4.4 but .... there is an application on Play Store called Fast Burst Camera and this application can take pictures at super speeds ... be it Stock or AOSP....
Check it out ... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spritefish.fastburstcameralite
Thanks.

Its not a Samsung rom is why .
Unless there is an issue in the camera software by the company there isnt any way or improving raw picture quality. There are many camera apps on the playstore which provide multiple filters and capturing modes. There are also photo editions that can improve the pictures taken by changing tones/contrast etc. The one by Aviary is decent. Just head on over to the Play Store and give them a look. Im referring to free ones ofc. If your willing to spend a few bucks then i would recommend Perfectly Clear. It comes with an inbuilt camera in the new version and is simply legendary for improving any picture with the click of a button. Works like an easy to use Photoshop. Do give it look
Hey there guys,
First of all i want to mention that i'm new to the ,,modding thing,, . Few days ago i flashed CM 12.1 on my Galaxy S3.Works pretty well but there's something that i hate...The camera app that comes with it.I've searched for a better one on the play store and i came up with nothing good.I still prefer the old S3/S4 camera but all the cameras that i found here are mostly for android 4.3 version.Is there any camera for CM12.1 ? Thank you

I'm not sure whether you can get the stock SIII camera in CM12.1, it might be possible if someone backported it and flashed it.
The best camera is, for sure, the stock one - you cannot achieve the same results with a camera that's not been specifically programmed for one single hardware.
Anyways, you should check out the Google Camera which is pretty good.
