It would be amazing if this was in Samsungs plans maybe with 5.0.2 and onward updates for the s5 to offer the features of s6 cam in two areas being the camera features not hardware capabilities.Just features such as the Selfie.. captures with heart sensor that the N4 has. And slow motion video
And the option for Debloated TW .
Does anyone know if this is a possible talk with them ?
Or mod capable

Hello, does somebody tried to install stock rom from Galaxy Trend Plus (GT-S7580) with android 4.2 support onto Galaxy Trend (GT-S7560)?
Is it safe?
I know that the most of roms and modifications from Galaxy Ace II X works on Galaxy Trend, but there's no android 4.0+ that works well on this device (CyanogenMods are with bugs, and uses only 3mpx in CameraMX). I'm asking because design is the same, only difference is that the Trend Plus has CPU with 2 cores and also it can record videos in 720p, Trend in 480p. Maybe after installing that rom on Galaxy Trend it will can record videos in 720p and that at all will work stably and correctly?
In general, no.
I haven't had a research about GT-S7560, but Samsung equipped Android 4.0 to Trend for a reason: it's chip. The single-core on Trend cannot handle 4.0+ stock, and many people reported that on its own 4.0, the phone did't handle the UI very well (lags sometimes).
You can check again, Trend Plus is also incapable of recording 720p (or at less Samsung disabled that). In order to record 720p, the phone's chip and memory must be strong enough. If you want to record 720p videos, you may use a custom camera app. Maybe you would like to check out the modified version of Jelly Bean Gallery app from the stock Android (many on xda), that app supports recording 720p, even though on my Trend Plus, the video recorded was terribly laggy
Anyway, if you wish to have 720p, use custom camera apps (the stock Google version of Gallery which I installed also support 5MP photo capturing). If you want 4.0+ on a Trend, I recommend looking for ways to smoothen the CM
I'm looking for a custom ROM for s7580, but no development is going on
Can give me a link for the modde camera app ? And im also waiting for a forum to develop our galaxy trend plus
lifehacker.com/install-the-new-android-camera-on-any-android-phone-no-711043020
You can search about the stock 4.2 Gallery pk on Google
And... you know, I'm searching everyday for developments of our devices :'( still no hope yet...

why do you want motorola camera? z2 has everything you need in stock rom and you can have even more addons. you have slowmo in sony s app timeshift video that takes 120 fps. i suggest you try the existenz rom, i use kitkat (existenz ultimate) because it s more stable with xposed and root

There is no device that has fully supported and full featured camera in any CM or AOSP ROM. By using CM or AOSP ROMs camera quality sacrifice is inevitable. You will loose all advanced post-processing and features tailored for a specific camera. Camera hardware is working on universal CM drivers and by rule OEM drivers are proprietary and closed source. There is nothing anybody can do about this. Slo mo and 120 fps recording are advanced features not supported without OEM camera drivers. This is the case with all android devices. There are some improvisations and hacks for some specific devices but are almost always of poor quality and unusable. Moto cakera works with Z2 and CM but slow motion is not working properly.
Just wanted to ask for those non Samsung phone users on Android 7.0, does your Panorama upload a pic in Facebook with a 360 function? My S6 Edge which is on 6.0.1 is still capable of doing it and yet my S8+ just uploads a flat normal pic. I spoke with a Samsung's customer rep and he said that is due to the Marshmallow - Nougat difference.
Thanks.
Hi,
I have a Galaxy S9 Plus arriving tomorrow that I had intended to use with Filmic Pro and a Zhiyun Smooth 4 stabilizer (anyone got one?).
Somewhat belatedly, I've just discovered (here) that inbuilt restrictions prevent Filmic Pro from using the second rear camera.
Has anyone any experience of using the Filmic Pro's zoom function without the S9 Plus's optical zoom?
Thanks,
John Latter
Sadly it's true..
Samsung S9 and S9+ FiLMiC Pro v6 Compatibility Guide
The Samsung S9 and S9+ are capable of absolutely stunning footage when used with FiLMiC Pro v6 for Android, and we have worked hard to bring the best possible shooting experience to both handsets. However there are two issues that can impact on the available features you have access to and overall performance on the S9/S9+.
Samsung’s implementation of the camera framework
Firstly, Samsung’s implementation of the Android camera framework denies third party developers access to some feature that are available in the native Samsung camera app. This includes high-speed framerates such as 60fps, 120fps and 240fps.
On Exynos equipped devices we have found a workaround that allows us to deliver high speed framerates even though not officially supported (up to 240fps at 1080p, and up to 60fps at 4k), however this is not applicable to snapdragon equipped devices (see below for more information).
The current Samsung camera framework implementation also prevents third party developers from supporting the dual lenses found on the S9+. At present only the wide lens is supported.
Finally, in order to deliver stable 4k performance we need to use Samsung's 'limited' mode that prevents access to the cinematographer kit LOG/FLAT profiles as well as custom white balance controls.
The Snapdragon CPU
And secondly, in addition to Samsung’s restrictive implementation of the camera framework, they chose to produce the S9 and S9+ with two different CPUs: an Exynos version - and a Snapdragon version.
You can find out which CPU your devices uses with the app AIDA64.
Unfortunately not all chips are created equal and the Snapdragon version has the following limitations for video:
No support for 60fps at any resolution
Whilst we can bypass the Samsung 60fps limitation on Exynos devices, this is impossible on Snapdragon devices.
No support for 120fps.
Whilst we can bypass the Samsung 120fps limitation on Exynos devices, this is impossible on Snapdragon devices.
Automatic White Balance UI doesn’t update.
The camera driver doesn’t provide information about the current white balance being applied, so we cannot reflect this status on the UI on snapdragon equipped devices.
HDR video unsupported
On Exynos versions of the S9/S9+ we can support access to high dynamic range video recordings, however this is not currently supported on Snapdragon equipped handsets.

Do you plan to implement and release HDR recording for the Exynos version anytime soon?

According to this thread on the US Samsung Community forums, the 2 x optical zoom is not available to S9 Plus owners in Pro Mode.
In "Auto Mode" the second rear camera may or may not be selected by the software, depending - apparently - on "how much light is available".
In other words, there are probably lots of S9 Plus owners walking around thinking they've just taken a zoomed photo whereas in reality it's likely to be only a digital crop.
Amazing!

I don't have any experience with Filmic Pro.
But the default Samsung camera app also doesn't use the secondary camera for video. So it's not different.....
I had a few back and forth converstions with Samsung and Filic Pro support teams.
The following is the correspondence with Filic pro ragarding the matter:
Blue is me and black is Filmic pro support
"I'm sure you guys get annoyed about hearing about samsung users questions, but unfortunately I do not see any clear and open communication about it.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S9+
I would like to know if you guys are working on support for 4k 60fps, 1080p 120fps, and use of the telephoto lens. If so, do you have an estimated time frame that each of these will be supported?
How can I, or other samsung users, help to make the dream of full feature utilization a reality?
thank you"
"Thank you for writing in. Unfortunately, the lack of support for frame rates above 30fps on your device is due to errors in Samsung's camera framework implementation on S9 series devices containing the Snapdragon chipset. To learn more about these limitations, please refer to this resource --> Samsung S9 and S9+ FiLMiC Pro v6 Compatibility Guide
Furthermore, Samsung currently restrict 3rd party developers from accessing the tele lens on their devices. They told us at their developers conference last year that they plan to address this problem, but they are running late.
If Samsung correct these issues in the future, we will be quick to support for the features you mention. The best we can do is continue to raise the issue with Samsung until they recognize their users' demand for these repairs."
"I contacted you guys a few days ago regarding the S9+ and it's features and I received a very informative response that helped me a lot; so thanks for that!
I then decided to contact Samsung about the same issues and they seem to not be on the same page as you guys. After 2 support inquiries here is what I received from Samsung:
"We understand you would like Samsung to enable the [email protected], 1080p @ 60/120/240fps and utilization of telephoto lens to Filmic Pro app.
In the previous email, our agent had informed the camera specifications which the Galaxy S9+ supports. Indeed the Galaxy S9+ hardware supports [email protected] and 1080p @ 60/120/240fps using the in built Samsung camera app.
As the hardware supports the required format for videos, it is upon us the app developers to utilize the Camera hardware and develop the app code which can support this feature.
Samsung cannot change the software for the Camera if third party apps cannot utilize the camera hardware of Galaxy S9+. In this situation, we request to contact the app developer again and confirm if there are new updates available for the app which can support the camera hardware of Galaxy S9+."
With this in mind, it seems that they (or at least their support staff) believe that there are no restrictions on what 3rd party developers can do with the Samsung hardware. Because they are such a large company I would understand that their support staff is not privy to the detailed information of this one specific issue, but I'm curious if the entire company is not actually aware of the issue.
I realize this is a vague question, but I'm wondering if there is anything that can be done to push Samsung to allow Filmic pro to access all of the features that it's hardware provides. I have done extensive research of message boards and forums, but to no avail.
Can you point me in the right direction? Can we start some sort of petition? What can we do to get Samsungs attention?"
"Thanks very much for the followup. While it's true that Exynos devices are capable of the high fps/resolution combinations he mentions, S9 devices containing the Snapdragon chipset cannot achieve this with stability. It's a bit unclear to me, but it almost looks like he claims that 3rd party developers might now have access to both front facing lenses (!!). I at least I think that's what he means by "we request to contact the app developer again and confirm if there are new updates available for the app which can support the camera hardware of Galaxy S9+."
Anyway, I'm going to pass this along to the development team now to determine if maybe we did miss something in a system update that might grant us access to more features (at least for Snapdragon variants of S9 series devices, if we're lucky). We do understand that Samsung place restrictions on 3rd party developers in this manner, but we were told by Samsung at their developers conference last year that they plan to lift some of these restrictions. Maybe they changed their mind and pressing them with more requests for this improvement is not such a bad idea."
Conclusion:
Although I did not completely determine both company's standing on the issue, at least some light was shed on the matter. It also seems that Filmic pro will now press the issues further with Samsung to open up full feature capability at a future date.
If anyone knows of a way that we can group together in an effort to get Samsung's attention, please post about it here.
Just use an iphone. Had issues with my gimbal, drones, YOU name IT on android. No Issues on the iPhone.

Hello
On Oreo Samsung Camera app used Telephoto lens for video as well when there is enough light before you start recording it will switch to Telephoto. adjusting the zoom from 2.0 anywhere else while you are recording switches to Wide lens. (You can see shift in perspective and hear the click).
I could easily test this by pointing the camera directly to a light bulb before starting a recording on AUTO with 2x zoom.. (this doesn't work on current latest build of Pie and stock Camera app for video.
On Oreo you can verify that Telephoto lens is used by sticking some object or your finger in front of the wide lens while recording. ]
What makes me pissed off the most on Pie is that there is no support for Pro Mode Video - you cannot set manual ISO and/or Shutter and this was the main reasons why I purchased Filmic Pro.
To my surprise on Pie / Exynos The Filmic Pro app is able to switch apertures as well. I haven't see this on any other 3rd party camera app.
Regards,
Martin
I know no wide angle on s9, but will there be other features such as enhanced stabilization for example and other things?
Probably not

I do not see why you think that. I think that there is a good probability, but anyway, we will for sure get all the latest s10 features on our s9/s9+ like the s8/s8+ got the s9 features after some time during software updates.
I downloaded s10 cam and instal it on my s9+ ( because i'm just curious whats happend ) camera start i see buttons but black screen and in 3-4 sec. apk was force closed
