Questions regarding camera in roms. - Android Development on Bada

Hello,
I have tried few roms 4.2 and 4.4 ( Hero version ). But camera is not at all optimized for it.
Still pics are horrible and video recording is laggy and worst.
?
Which is the best android with best camera performance ( like in bada 2.0) and gaming performance at the moment

Sorry,but there is no Hero version rom.All badadroid roms made by Volk204,Rebellos and Tigrouzen.Use correct name.
And for your question.Camera only good in bada 1.2

Is there any way to install bada 1.2 camera instead of bada 2.0 ????

I used a lot the camera for making photo with all Volk&Rebellos rom, with bada 2.0 and before 1.2 and 1.0. There is no difference at all in raw quality of the photo, just use a good app in android and set everything to max quality...
(for video it's quite the same thing but it works only in recent android rom and it's better in bada 2.0 than in 1.2/1.0 where you have also touch to focus and front-camera switch)

No , its true that older bada 1.2 Rom has best camera .and resolution is looking amazing . (not latest bada 1.2).
and yes , video recording is best on bada 2.0.

[Q] Camera don't work on mini pro CM7 v5.0

On my device camera don't work:
when i try to take picture it freezes and don't take any photos.
Tried in the stock camera and vignette, both don't work.
Problem in cm7 v 5.0, in CM6 v 3.4 all was good.
Sorry for my bad english
After this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12313551&postcount=391
i tested, yes, camera illusion works fine, but resolution...
Max resolution of Camera Illusion is 320x240
I read in CM7v5.0 thread, this is a known bug for many people, camera works only max 3 MP and Vignette cannot save the photos...
If you need it, go back to Floyo and wait till a new version is released.

Thank you Temes!
Waiting...
ah~~~~go back to froyo is indeed an option. I don't think Gingerbread is really that good anyway.

The HTC Hero Camera on ROMs beyond 2.1

Hi all, as we all know the HTC Hero has it's weak spot in the camera.
On many ROMs that go beyond the official 2.1 Release it is very variing wether it work or not and wether it has certain features or not.
What I know and speculate so far.
-To use the camera, Android needs a camera driver.
-Apparently these drivers are kexts (kernel extentions) witch are only compatible with certain versions of the Linux kernel.
-On CyanogenMod/AOSP based ROMs the camera app gives us more raw images with less post processing as there are no information about the sensor color proprieties.
-On HTC Sense ROMs photos are more saturated, contrasty as HTC knows about the sensor and has engineers who optimised the post processing algorithms accordingly.
So why can't we have HTCs camera apk everywhere? at least it relyes on some HTC Sense (that reside inside at least one external APK) frameworks to do some UI/UX shenanigans. I suppose also that HTC uses a dedicated camera driver and not a generic AOSP one additionaly.
What I don't know and want to know is where all the features in the little settings overlay in the AOSP Camera App come from. At first I thought it was a hardware capability but all of the sudden came FroydVillain (at least for me) and had touch to focus etc.
So my question is: can we decouple camera development to make(and keep up to date) the ultimate, full featured camera driver/app for the hero that works up to 2.3.4 ?
t.l.d.r. : I want touch to focus and spot metering in all ROMS up to 2.3.4
Previous Questions in the forum have been answered pretty vagely and unsatisfactory, so I try to gather as much info as I can here. Please complete, correct and link me to what I'm missing out here.

Camcorder does work you have to change the it from 640 480 to 320 240 in the settings
Thanks, I love this rom but the only setback for me is the SMS + prefix issue that I m experiencing with this rom, let me know if you have a fix for it.

[Q] Original Camera APK SE

Hi everyone
Can i get the lastest Camera app from Stock SE Froyo 2.1update1 with all skills like face recognition and smile shutter on to Cyanogenmod????
i have CM6 [6.1.3]gingerbread[v01]
It is the only thing that i miss from SE
sorry for my bad english....
saludos
No, if the camera functions could have been ported dont you think they would have?! The devs aren't purposely building the ROMs with missing features, the drivers and app compatability have so far prevented the full development of camera functions in custom ROMs. If you want face recognition, full zoom and quality you need to use 2.1 ROMs.

If I (or anyone for that matter!) help you, dont be afraid to press THANKS!
mmm and some recommended app to test with functions like original app camera?
thanks for your time.
Hi,
there are some recommended third party apps like vignette or camera illusion.
I've found no version yet that supports zoom or Flash (if im wrong please anybody correct me).
Thats the point because i am a little bit critic over custom roms.
They are faster than stock rom, many are fast as hell.
But no really functionally camera is no opportunity for me.
In Froyo roms the Camera works good, i use the MIUI Camera for Froyo apk.
The SE stock rom ist the slowest i've ever seen but the camera app (except for smile shutter e.g.) is the best.

If you want the best camera capabilities, and quality, stay at 2.1 for camera and camcorder. 2.2 is good for the android system.
At 2.2, the camera looses the zoom and SE camera features like face prediction ect. and zoom in camcorder.

General Rom Review/ Kernel Request

i have tried 3 roms for this device since i got this phone, in my own observation and satisfaction here's my review
Stock Rom(Miui 12)- a bit laggy for me and not fully optimize for multi tasking or gaming, ram eater but very good battery life thanks for 33 watts charging
Pixel Experience- still has bugs like camera video and I also dont like that it doesnt have built in gallery app, only google photos. its good for gaming and multitasking, efficient ram usage I guess. good battery life, fast charging works
EvolutionX- this is my currently rom and im loving it no bugs so far, but also dont have built in gallery app, but thats ok gaming is superb here and the ram usage is all so good. bad news is fast charging doesnt work.
My conclusion is, there is no perfect rom this device yet, lets wait for our beloved developers and support them.
I would love if someone made a kernel that supports 33watts fast charging, optimized ram usage for gaming and multitasking.
I've tried Pixel Experience as well and am now on dotOS (vanilla with microg).
There's a Gcam mod working perfectly, see other threads.
I consider both are very good - and I prefer to install a gallery app of my liking, so it's good there's no preinstalled one!

I found and set the functional camera to select the lens.
Gcam7.3.018_Greatness.Build2.3.apk (camera)
main[1].xml (my config file)
1) Install the camera. Uninstall the previous GCAM if you cannot install.
2) Start the camera and go to the settings. Config>Save>"a" (SAVE).
3) File main[1].xml copy to /sdcard/gcam/Configs7/
4) Start the camera, double-click this place (photo below) select main file>RESTORE
You get the settings, Wide, Main, Macro lens.
Video works only in normal mode. Slow doesn't work.
So everything will work in this GCAM!

Excellent
Developer from dotOS comes with Bliss.
Tested Bliss ROM 14 (vanilla) with a clean flash, but cannot recommend it at this time.
It doesn't have signature spoofing, so no easy installation of microG.
Also it wrecked the ADB connection, the phone was not recognized by my iMac anymore and I had to reflash MIUI Stock Rom from a windows computer to repair.
Also some UI glitches.
Needs more development, so I'll stick with dotOS in the meantime.
