Camera apps and aosp rom - G2 General

Has anyone implemented a good camera app for nine stock based roms?
By good I mean including slow motion recording and ultra HD?
I've searched and searched and cannot find one?

I assume from the lack of response that the answer is no?!

I dont know about an app for it but i can say the aosp roms camera quality is lower the stock based roms. that could be why those features are missing, as they dont have native camera access... search google for any aosp camera apps, universal ones might work...

Yeah. I agree. The quality from aosp roms is not as good. I've switched to a stock based ROM solely for the camera. But the stock based roms seem to deteriorate with time as the device gets more and more used and full.
All the camera apps I've tried I sent compared.
But I got this phone for the alleged excellent t camera!

This works well on AOSP ROMS.

Is the quality better than with the stock aosp camera apps?

To be honest, i don't know, i don't really use the camera that much. The app has some nice options though.
But reading again i don't think it does what you asked.

Has any progress been made towards running the TW camera on AOSP ROMs?

Hi there! I recently found out that Siyah Kernel allows dual booting on the S3, so I took the plunge and used it to install RootBox as my second ROM. I'm quite happy with it, but I'd love to have the Samsung camera's features back - particularly, the HDR and low light modes.
Does a mod exist that allows the TW camera to work, or has there been any previous technical discussion of this that may help me in my quest to make one?
I tried to port it myself with my minimal modding skills, but it turned out to be more complex than I expected: the furthest I got was getting the Samsung camera UI to appear and then pop up "Camera failed". I broke camera functionality entirely for all other apps, too
I'm now [slowly] downloading the Android source to see if I can make the necessary modifications to make Samsung's camera libraries work, but in the meantime, I'd love to know if there's something I missed in my searches. All I found was an XDA thread requesting a port of the GS3 camera to the GS2, and a thread on another board which included some interesting info from someone who had tried porting the GS3 camera to AOSP but nothing I didn't already know.
Any info on this would be appreciated. Thank you!
I dont think anyone is even trying. The aosp mod 2.60 in themes section is good but I recommend installing camera 360 from play for effects and cool hdr
The hdr is only an effect though

I took that as a challenge and have been working on it nonstop since yesterday
I have the camera working on my modded ROM now, I'm hoping to release the ROM and the source patches (for applying to other ROMs) once I get more of the features working (I would like to at least fix Low Light and the Camcorder) and knock out a couple issues like the app launching the non-existent TW gallery to view photos.
Here's a video as proof. Apologies for the quality, but I couldn't find a decent screen recording app: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYX4PSVDiIU
Now that I'm here again, I may as well ask- where would the best place be to post this? It's related to both a modded app and a modded ROM so I don't know whether it would fit better in Development or Themes/Apps.
Themes and apps, definitely

will have no effect
I said try. I have when I was using CM. It helped my camera quality tenfold. It is not the same quality as the original camera but it is better than the terrible one which comes with a CM ROM.

I'm using this because it has some good effects. I can't comment on the stock camera, but it's certainly not better than the AOSP mod below that is my main camera:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746611
It is not possible to increase the camera quality above the ROM's capabilities. All 3rd party cameras use the existing libs and drivers. It may be the stock CM app is particularly bad, but do try the link above.

[Q] Camera app on custom roms vs. Sony stock camera apps

Could you help me with these questions? (I would like to use 4.4 custom rom but do not know how good the camera apps there)
1.How good is camera apps (Google stock camera??) on the 4.4 custom roms in comparison with Sony stock camera app? (My phone is xperia mini).
2.Is it possible to have the Sony camera app on custom roms?
3. Is there any camera app (on google play store) which could be at the same level with the Sony stock camera app?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for your clear answer :good:
Hmmm...there a lot of 3rd party camera out there that can work as good as stock ICS camera on our devices....you just have to figure out and tested all of them to know which one is better....
in CM11, they use Slim rom camera that work better then what we have in JB rom....the only thing that it lack is maybe HD recording which is base on custom kernel we use in our rom....
i'm currently using PAC 4.4.2 rom and i gotta say camera in that rom is a good as you can get but if you are not satisfied with it then you can use Camera 360 for taking picture and Camera MX for video recording....don't use Perfectly Clear cause that camera work better on devices that have higher ram than 512mb....

Camera APP for aftermarket firmwares

The camera app on the mi3 custom roms is not really good , any recommendations , with almost everything working and miui stock cam like quality
on cm12.1 from bitt09 and banks

It's impossible as MIUI is using it's own api for MIUI camera. They are in MIUI SDK (MIUI.apk in /system/app or /system/priv-app)
And this is closed sources so actually no way to get it on custom rom, it need a good dev who would like to have a deep look on it.
But try to use open camera app and set jpeg quality to 100% and exposure compensation to -0.67 eV, that gives me better result than google camera.

Will it work in mi4? In roms other than stock miui ROM
EDIT: I tried ,but theres no option for Shutter Speed & also when i chose mannual in focus ,the focus stucks,how to mannually adjust it
In the coming days, perhaps even today, will be updated in Google Play, with support mi4 and improved interface. It worked on all custom lollipop roms and on Ivans marshmallow rom, on other marshmallow custom roms it not work because on this roms used one base with bags.

Wow. That was fast! A new interface so soon!
Thanks man.
For all others, I've been a tester of this camera, it brings manual controls to Mi4. Even the focus one. So, you'll have all sorts of controls over mi4 camera.
Try google camera app
freeDcam is my favorite of all the apps mentioned , it has a few fc issues when the flash is used though.

Request: MIUI Camera App for 7.1 Rom´s (App or .zip)

Hello Guys
I want to Use the MIUI Camera App in a 7.1 Rom.
Anybody know how to extract the app and install this in a newer Rom?
I know that the . most of the 7.x Rom´s have Camera Issues and we are Happy to make Picture with them but to try a Slow Motion Video/ Timelapse or HDR without a Third Party app out of the Play store would a nice thing be =)

Maximaro =)
Same for RR ROM. Miui stock app takes better images.
I would love to have the miui camera app on this cm rom too, wow.
I don't think that it'll be possible... And also if you somehow do it, it won't work as good as when you were using it on MIUI... There are some better camera mods to use...
And also i have to ask that MIUI camera's quality is really that better? Or is the difference in the camera quality really noticeable?
I think the MIUI camera takes the best pictures. It's the only reason I haven't moved to a custom rom yet as my daily driver.
I was cm fan but when i tested miui i can't leave this system , it's much better than cm ,and it's more like custom rom rather stock Android
Sent from my Redmi Note 3 using XDA-Developers mobile app
actually miui camera will need various of miui rom api's, so it is very difficult to port
Asked for the same before and from what I understood, porting that app will be super difficult. But I concur the camera app under MIUI is just that good. Would be mint to have it on other ROMs
Snapdragon camera works same as stock on MIUI (atleast I think so)

Yep there is a big difference, if you get the device you will notice
without stock camera there is lot of noises in low light and non of the camera can take image like hdr pro mode in miui cam, and also the manual mode, some of camera enable manual but only limited like shutter speed to 1/s or the max iso to 1600, i tried lots of cam flashable zips or app store app none of them are good.:crying::crying::crying:
