What camera apps are you using? - Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers

Hello, my question is which camera apps are you using to get the best out of the camera? (Can be a paid or a free app)
And an example picture would be nice!
Thanks [emoji106]

Stock camera and camera fv-5 for more settings, I always buy pro version. Regards Bert

Stock camera and Cameringo+.
I believe you can't improve the camera results changing the app. If camera is bad in low light, it will stay bad even changing the app

Thanks! I will test those apps

Z camera. Seems good to me but I'm not the biggest picture take...

I have tried camera fv-5 pro and it is a really good camera app. The design is really nice and it has lost of settings. With the right settings the pictures are much better then in stock!
Thanks again for the recommendation [emoji106]

Google camera and the standard P9000 camera (found the slow motion option today, just a shame it's not 720p)

Also using Google Camera. It seems to offer the best/fastest UI and UE and takes good pictures in HDR mode.

What version of google camera are you using? If I install Google Camera 3.2.045 from apkmirror.com it keeps crashing all the time.

Video recording crashes with Google Camera 3.2.045 (for MM Roms) & photo quality is very bad (dark).
Installed ported HTC 10 cam apk, no quality difference to CM13 camera.
Anybody saved the stock P9000 camera apk?

The Google Camera works on Cyanogen Mod

A Better Camera
I use "A Better Camera".
These app hasn`t worked very good with any of my smartphones before - but with P9000 surprisingly it does.
Edit: Forgot to mention, that I'm on CM 13 final build 13 right now.

[Q] Better camera app?

I've been looking for a better camera app.
By "better", I am referring to faster/quality. Not instagram and other image manipulation nonsense.
I am also aware that we are limited by hardware, but still there must be something better.
Has anyone found a suitable contender?

Is there any way to improve the quality of the camera? It is almost useless. Rooting or something?

The best camera, IMHO, is LG Camera Pro.
Better Camera App
I am using super app LGcamera (there is free version too) and there is available to set these things:
video bitrate (default is 15MBps) i use 20MBps
audio quality is better (FULL HD VIDEO) 96kbps, mono, 48000HZ
you can change your save destination
take a photo while recording a movie
....and more
Hey guys
thanks for the opinion!
I've tried for a while jb+ and I enjoyed it more than the stock one (was faster and minimal UI). I did not enjoy however the way you change settings, it seemed awkward. Also the video recorder does no support 1080. Another thing was the lighting setting, auto mode was rubbish and I had to manually select lighting for each photo.
Starting today, I'll be trying LGcamera.
So far, I'm impressed. It really feels solid and works good.
Video supports 1080 and takes photos at 5MP(stock takes photos at 2MP, I believe)
Focus seems better to.
I'd like to ask you guys:
What settings to you use? (focus, photo mode, light)
Also for video
Thanks!
I'm a fan of the stock Nexus camera app and purchased Camera JB+....works for me.

Those options have terrible video framerates.
CameraJB+, LGCamera, Camera FV-5, give me bad framerates in video. I'm not sure if there's a fix or something but in darker areas like indoors, the exposure doesn't fix so the framerates dip into the single digits. The only thing I want is just timestamped filenames. Is there a modified Stock possibly?

Hey, I see what you mean and I think I can help you.
Here's what you need to do:
1. Get root access to your device (there're plenty of ways)
2. Unzip the attached archive and replace your device's media_profiles.xml with the one from the archive.
To do that, use Root Explorer app and go to /etc. Copy new media profiles and confirm the replacement. Then, don't forget to set the permissions of the new one to rw-r--r--.
3. Restart your device.
Now you have better sound quality in stock app (48000 kHz, 160 kbps) and you have better fps compatibility.
There're several apps for you to use:
a) For better quality and control, you can use FV-5 Cinema app. You should get fixed 30 fps under default settings.
b) As for LGCamera (the one with the older interface, version number around 5.4), you should set fps to 25 and you will get a stable 25 fps, regardless of the lighting.
c) However, if you are using the newer LGCamera (version 7), you'll have to go for a little trick:
Launch the app, and set the fps to 30. Now, go to Setting tab (the last one), select "Edit camera script" and add the following after the existing lines:
preview-fps-range=30000,30000
Now, restart LGCamera app, and you will have stable 30fps performance.
So, there're 3 options for you, choose whichever you like
P.S. I have P765 with the stock firmware from P760, version 20p.
Thanks but

That trick unfortunately didn't make a difference.. All third party apps are still agonizingly laggy. Thanks though, it was worth the shot.

cyanogen camera is good
i'm using the google camera and its good.. not bad as what i expected...
My stock camera lags problems goes with the stock gallery.. when I preview the pics I've taken the gallery also lags and wont respond..it very annoying especially when I'm out with my girlfriend..
this phone has a good camera even in low light...but the problem is..the apps..i hope someone make our camera smooth:crying:
maybe "XCam LG"?
I have this one installed. It is only for LG stock-based firmware and I'm really satified with it.
Do not install the advanced drivers, it will not work. The "XCam LG - for stock/unrooted G2" works fine on LG Mini, together with the "XCam LG Settings Donation App" (Play Store).

Have you tried the additional settings app ? It is not very expensive and there you can change several parameters. Maybe this could help?

CM13 users, which camera app do you use for taking high-quality photos?

While the CM13 included camera app is relatively fast and great for quick-snap photos, I did manage to make some impressive photos while playing around on EMUI camera in Pro mode (before I flashed the phone), looking suprisingly good for such a low tier camera.
Since there's no manual mode in CM13, which camera app would you recommend to purchase/download(if free)?
Also, is the HDR bug guaranteed to occur in every app?
Thanks in advance!
Snap Camera works great!
How do u get SnapCamera on CM? Can you just flash it or..

As far as I'm aware Honor 5x nightlies don't include the Snap camera yet. It ships with the legacy Camera, which takes mediocre pictures and can't do HDR or Panoramas.
Google Camera is available for Panoramas, but the accelerometer/gyroscope is very jittery on the phone, so the stitching doesn't do a good job.
I don't think this issue is gonna be resolved until Camera2 API is ported into our CM nightly.

I do think the same, it's about software, not a specific camera app
I tried putting the ro.camera2.prtabilty.force_api=1 in the default.prop file by splitting boot.img and reflashing boot.IMG, putting manual focus line in build.prop and then flashing the ported emui 4.0 camera with twrp... Still badluck as it says Unfortunately, camera has stopped working
Just use Cm marsh(cm based costom ROM ) comes with snap camera

Now use it on any ROM

I've found that, no matter what camera app I install, I can't get the same picture quality I used to get on the stock ROM. Is there a reason for this? The drivers, maybe?

I guess is the camera processing is different on stock ROM from custom ROMs

camera apps?

Currently I use Google camera for video because image stabilization is the best in this one for video.
Snapcamera hdr for pictures.
Snapcamera of bliss ROM for selfies.
Slow motion doesn't work on any of my apps.
What do you guys use? Also noticed that only enabling camera2 API would give you good quality.

Yeah audio isn't recorded on slow mo. You have to open the settings and manually turn on the option s for slow mo.
Also what stock camera are you talking about? I have Google camera but clicking on slow mo force closes it.

Please someone port google camera with hdr+ eis for nokia 7.1

Please someone port gcam for nokia 7.1 MG _5.03.015 gets installed and doesn't crashes, videos are able to be recorded, but photo mode shows black screen. Probably not reading the exact camera id for photos.
Thanks in advance.
Download the latest build of gcam for Nokia 6.1 plus android pie, works well most of the time.
I'm using the latest build from Arnova here (https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/#apk411) and most features work including Night Sight. Not sure about EIS but takes better pictures than stock Nokia. Slower for sure due to HDR+, but can't complain about the quality.

Hi, no problem! I have "GCam_Pixel3Mod_1.3_build.6.1.021.apk" installed currently and have no issues with regular camera portrait or night sight. Have to disable motion picture or whatever it is called or it crashes per the instructions on the XDA forum threads for the Pixel3 mod.
Thanks, @UCFJake.
I've been playing around with that one, but really don't think it's any better than the Nokia camera app; don't get me wrong, "Night Sight" is pretty cool, but the picture quality isn't better than the stock app...
Am I missing something?
Hi @moore.bryan,
I find the portrait mode has much better results and the plain camera mode has better light detection making slightly sharper photos, but the Nokia cam is faster to load, take photos, and store in the gallery. If I'm not using portrait mode I am honestly defaulting to the Nokia cam for speed. I guess depending on my subject I'm choosing the camera that seems to work best. I don't use the pro mode though as I prefer to point and click as a lot of stuff I want to take photos of are fleeting or non-stationary.
Hi, here you can find port for all nokia phones https://nokiapoweruser.com/google-camera-apk-download-for-nokia-smartphones/
For me it works very well on 7.1
Everything(including slow-motion, ar stickers, night sight) tested except motion photos (I am not really into that ) and it's working perfectly without any crashes. Try out this one in the link below.

Wysłane z mojego Nokia 7.1 przy użyciu Tapatalka
I didn't test much, but most of them are crashing in my device. (Nokia 7.1 3/32 Gb)
The one that is working for me is the latest from Arnova: MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_V1.0.030119.0705.apk
In order to get Night Sight working I had to disable "Sabre" in the settings.
Results are, in fact, very good. I wish that Google could make Google Cam official for everyone ?*♂
Give it a try.
