TW camera on CM 10.1 - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Is there a CM ROM being developed that employs the TW camera goodness? Or is there a way to install TW camera to a CM/AOSP ROM?

Was it on XDA? I searched up and down. Seems like you would be able to do it from a Titanium backup. Or is there issues with not using TW? I love CM but hat to lose all the goodness of TW...

There's a flashable zip to put TW apps on the GE rom but the camera isn't included. I've tried TiBu to load the camera to it but that's a no-go. As far as I know, only the GE rom will allow TW apps (since it's AOSP with TW framework) but no one had got the camera working yet. TW apps wont work on CM and other AOSP roms.

[Q] 4.2 Google Camera with Samsung camera?

Hello, i was just wondering.
Is there anyway to get Google 4.2 camera and Samsung note 2 camera at the same time?
I like the panorama and Photosphere from Google camera (and the circular autofocus ring looks cool )
but i like the best shoot, smiley face and many other features from the samsung stock camera. ( really do)
So is there anyway yet to install two of these cameras at the same time?
or add those features together?
I read some forum posts and do a little research, everybody says flash it/replace it.
( I run a custom rom with touchwiz and other samsung stuff on it)
Which ROM are you on? Yes you can have both of you don't want to delete the tw camera take your 4.2 camera and manually put the apps and libs where they go and reboot.

Jelly Bean's Rom will allow you to do this.

I'm on Eclipse rom, and thanks i will try it

4.2 camera flash works on aosp.

Is there a way to write script or build prop to get the flash of the 4.2 camera working on a custom tw rom? Ive read, searched and tried different permissions for cameras but the 4.2 camera only seems to work on 4.2 aosp custom roms which in turn you lose tw functionality. Amy help or suggestions?

If I understand correctly, you're asking how to use flash without crashing under the 4.2 AOSP camera app, while using a TouchWiz ROM...
Why? The TouchWiz camera app is tailor suited for this very device and thus provides the absolute best results and control over the camera. Being on a TouchWiz ROM means you should absolutely only use the TouchWiz camera app, unless you need to do a Photosphere in which case you use the AOSP one.

I enjoy the simple interface on the 4.2 and it seems that it should be fixable as it is same device. As in... it works with flash correctly if using aosp rom...but with tw rom with aosp mods. The camera fc's if using flash..i was just seeking a possibility to fix this, i guess if it was that easy it would already be baked in?

Pretty much. I have been waiting for this since the 4.2 camera came out and there hasn't been a fix. Some people have no issue whatsoever using it with flash but it's somewhat rare on TW roms. If it was an easy fix you can be sure it would have already been baked in.

TW camera

Hi i've seen peoples replies in threads about flashing the Touch wiz camera on CM10.1 and i have been looking all through the forums and i cant seem to find the file to flash so that i can have the touchwiz camera on my CM10.1 ROM. I am using the unofficial CM10.1 with IR blaster support and it works great with watchon but im still looking for that touchwiz camera file/apk to flash. Any help please?
I've also been trying to find a flash able tw camera. Dubbsy included a flash able in his GE ROM but it doesnt work properly.

[Q] Camera performance on AOSP-based ROMs?

does anyone else have problems with the stock AOSP camera app on AOSP-based ROMs? It's really frustrating. Sometimes the app will start but the screen will be black. Sometimes it won't start at all when I tap the icon. Swiping from the lockscreen to open it directly is a crapshoot; often it just crashes. I've had video recording problems too on occasion.

I don't have stability problems, just quality, because the aosp app isn't tuned for our camera like the TW one. are you sure it isn't rom or cm specific? like have you experienced on aosp roms based on cm, linaro, and actual aosp source?

I've tried CarbonROM, Liquid's ROM, and the CM10.2 nightlies. All have had issues with the camera app just not performing very well.
I haven't tried CM10.1's release build, though.
What AOSP ROMs have you tried where you didn't notice any camera app problems?
OctOS and smoothAOKP, but I've been on a TW kick lately.

[Q] Samsung Camera App on a custom rom???

I'm rooting my Verizon Galaxy S4 (16g) with Cyanogenmod but only thing that stops me right now is the camera. The camera on the phone works great with Samsung's camera software. But since I'm moving on from Touchwiz to Cyanogenmod, I'm curious if there is any way to keep the Samsung's camera app on a custom rom. Thank you.
Unfortunately the Samsung Camera App requires the Touchwiz framework. It doesn't work on AOSP roms. You can try the Eclipse rom. It has that AOSP look and feel but is touchwiz based so it has the Samsung Camera app on it. The dialer, settings, contacts, and notification panels are all AOSP.

You can only use it on a TW rom. It hooks into proprietary TW framework that we can't get source code for to port to AOSP.
If you use a GPE rom, such as the one by Danvdh, it's a little different. Since these are built on the GPE device base they're still AOSP roms but they use Samsung drivers for the camera. It's still as not as good as the full TW camera, but with a third party app (Google's camera still sucks) it's the best camera experience you'll get on AOSP on this phone.

All very true.. Have you used that Lenovo Super Camera??? I thougt it was really cool, comparable to the Wiz Camera, just depending on which version you found it either required all sorts of permissions/libraries . if we could scrounge up just an easy to install... No permissions Lenovo that'd be cool

Yeah I tried it right when it got pulled from that Intel phone Lenovo came out with, I've never been much of a camera aficionado though. I thought the gallery app was really cool but a lot of Chinese all over the place lol.
