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

search for a better camera apk pro, it has everything
from my experience the advanced features of the camera (slow mo etc) did not worked on cm but that was with older cm s

I know that htc camera app is working on cm12.1,but idk if motorola's is also.
Just try it and let us know.

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.

Camera module confusion hardware mod

hi all devs,
i have searched lots of on internet and came to know that camera hardware in sk17i mini pro is same as in arc and in neo. may be its limited to 5mp, also i have seen both camera from outside and almost they are same in looking, haven't gone under because of warranty. now one more confusion why mini pro camera don't have zoom in video mode, its only have in still mode. is arc, and neo also have same problem. how can i come to know that they have same camera module, help appriciated, i just want to unlock the camera limitations.
i do have this doubt because earlier SE announce this mini pro with exmor r sensor but after some time it has been removed may be its a sales marketing ideas.
so guys please suggest me something to know this deeply. can i see something in hardware config from the rom provided by DooMLoRD.
You can zoom when taking pictures?

There is a zoom function in software, I do it using volume keys, but pinch zoom should work too.

I'd per highly surprised. Looking at that tiny lens on the SK17, I'm surprised it can even do the 5MP photos let alone a 8.1 MP. Other thing to note is the camera could look the same, but not have the same internals, as you have pointed out, the SK17 doesn't have the exmor r sensor, which would make a significant difference in PQ.
It would be interesting to learn if the cameras are in fact the same part number, but I suppose that would mean tearing down the phones and finding part numbers.
Regards,
Mike

Enable HDR video feature, improve camera quality from KK ports & any kernel recomenda

Enable HDR video feature, improve camera quality from KK ports & any kernel recomenda
Since Xperia Z has HDR video feature, can someone enable this great feature in our DNA? Cuz both phones share same Snapdragon S4 pro processor, however they dont share same sensor wich Xperia Z uses 13 mpx camera while DNA uses an awsome 8mpx sensor wifi HDR capabilities, i guess in ports from M7 KK there should be some HDR video files because the direct port, what do you guys think?

You should give moblynx camera kk a try. It's basically the aosp camera with some useful additional features. 16:9 option, HDR, and you can take pictures with your pebble too. I love it.

[Q] What's the best camera app for Nubia Z7 Mini?

Hello
I can't decide which camera app gives the best results for shooting photos...
Because of the fact that the mini lacks the OIS, it's really hard to take a good photo...
What app did you find that provides the best results?
Thanks :good:
So no one is taking photos I guess..?

After testing several, the one that gave me better quality photos was Snap Camera.
The Nubia Camera App is pretty good and has a lot of Functions.
Using now another Rom and the Google Camera App
Snap camera is pretty good indeed...
But I cannot record live performances with that phone... It seems like mic gain is too loud..

Which ROM are you using?
The stock camera is not going to work if you are not using a stock based ROM, I'm trying to port it but there is a lot of work to do.
You can try the generic app from http://app.nubia.cn/app but it's not full like stock one (no HDR).

I'm using Cyanogenmod 12. I always use Cyanogenmod. The sensor in the oneplus is the same as in the nubia Z7 right? So I don't understand why the pictures look moved and the colors look washed out.
I don't know how I feel about the nubia, the size is good, it's smooth, the battery is good but the oneplus camera was waaaay better IMO.
I am using CM11 and Lenovo camera, with this phone you can also use freedcam (search here on xda) and you'll have access to the raw image.
Drivers and software can do a lot of difference even with the same sensor.

Yea but my Oneplus was also on CM12 and using the cm11s camera. Would it be the other hardware like the 1GB ram that's missing and the CPU that's clocked lower?
The pictures look moved easily and the colours are washed out!

Oneplus does not have hardware OIS as well (I think). So no software OIS?
Hi,
I like the native app of nubia, but i have a problem of sound. Every sound are "metallic" very bad result.
Do you have an idea to solve this problem ?
Thanks.
i buyed z7 max but they send with 5.1 LP but the front camera not clear view in the day and night pls post to my id [email protected]

Flashing custom rom will change camera quality

i have buy redmi note 3 after my samsung note 3 neo, but 16mp camera of rn3 is not good as samsung 8mp camera, sometime 8mp samsung photos are way better than rn3 16 mp, rn3 photos are very grainy when zoom in but samsung photos are very sharp, so i have read some post on miui forum and internet, and find in some user say that this probelm is due to image processing algorithm of miui, so flashing any custom rom will change my camera quality or not.
OK.
Are you asking a question, or are you telling us?

i am telling you my problem and asking for solution..
If you using MIUI stock camera, try another camera app like Google stock one.
MIUI Stock is over-saturated, over-sharpened.
I'm using customized setting for MIUI stock. Lowering everything, contrast, saturation, sharpness.
But camera movie quality on stock MiUi is great! Just Recorder a trial of my Band yesterday and result was best over all AOSP or CM13 tries I did before!!

Need Help For DRM Fix On Z2 RR 7.1.2

Hello everyone, i have a problem with my Z2. I unlocked the phone and the camera became very bad (I didn't know that sony has done such a thing while unlocking). So, I updated my phone to R.Remix 7.1.2 v5.8.5 and the camera is still bad. I know that it's normal. So I'm looking for the fix but i can't find the proper one. There are some solves but they are for MM or stock nougat. I can't be sure if i should try.
Can anyone help me? My camera is very bad and it's irritating me very much. Thanks.

1) You are sure that camera have something on lens?
2) Carbon based rom have "drm fix" for camera .
3) You have try stock camera porting?
4) Unlocking bootloader give bad camera on stock sony roms and other loss of things for drm loss. In stock rom you can put drm fix or elite kernel because drm fix are built in. On custom roms with 3.4 kernel based, there is something similar but for camera.
5) If you try only 20 mpx, with normal quality(not high), on bad light, is normal that camera gives "bad" image. Use 8 mpx instead 4:3. Sensor is 4:3 and with this format you can have best quality.
6) I advice to put carbon rom instead of this or rr 5..8.4 of 21 september 2017 for mic problems of 5.8.5

guys without drm fix camera would not even work
so rr is based on carbon trees and the camera performance is the same between stock and carbon
i made a picture with stock and one with carbon and can't see a diffrence

With carbon based roms, i think camera better than stock in most of cases xD Expecially i'm using sony port camera. This for different parameters. On auto with those roms .Iso can't reach other 3200 iso,on stock porting scene doesn't recognized (in most of cases seems better), focus seems more affordable. But on z2 i always advice to shoot on 8 mpx 4:3 to get in most of cases best results in every situation. 20 only on really light situation to have best details,because z2 is one of first experiment with high megapixel camera and noise reduction doesnt' work well on high megapixel shoots(unlike latest xperias). And always use 4:3 for best images. 16:9 is a cropped image. And to have this results on a custom rom i think is a miracle. In most of cases, camera on those roms are going really worst. With this,is going like stock or better. Thank you for your work
