Anyone willing to try installing the Camera.apk from the Galaxy S Froyo update on the tab to see if we can't get some 720p recording???...
Or send me the file I'm willing to try it!
Isnt anyone interested in hacking the tab to record 720p?

I thought the Tab already records in 720p
I'm pretty sure it's possible: my iPhone 3Gs is patched to do 720p at 30fps with no problems whatsoever. I assume it uses the iPhone 4's camera drivers. If the 3Gs can be patched to use the iPhone 4's drivers when they aren't even running the same hardware then I assume that this would be pretty simple for someone who knew what they were doing. As far as I'm aware the Galaxy S and Tab run the same hardware other than their screen and camera spec.
Would be a nice feature to have and a big step up from 720X480. inassume Samsung left it out because they didn't want the Tab to outdo the Galaxy.

technically, the len of tab is capeable of capturing 720p, the limitation was implimented in rom

Hi there.
Do you know some applications for video conference using the front camera ?
Thanks a lot !
Edit :
- Fring
- ooVoo
Take picture of yourself. That's about it. Very useful, isn't it?
The latest ooVoo client works in portrait mode for tab-to-PC conferencing.

Tango. There's also an iPhone Tango app so you can video chat with the rest of the world.
I know people who work for Telus here in Canada and they were told skype video for Android will be out very soon and I believe it because they are advertising skype video on their nexus s which will be released Friday. That will make use of the front camera!

10 years? More like 20. I remember seeing video-phones at shows when I was a young kid, there's a good reason they never caught on.

Skype with video for Android looks like it's imminent. May finally find a use for the front facing camera. The only time I video chat is via skype so this could be a good move, though the video quality of the front-facing camera doesn't do the idea justice...
This is cool, any ETA from when SGT users will be available to get the new skype?

on my GT, Yahoo Messenger mmakes use of the back camera only. there's no option to swtich to the front camera.
ooVoo doesn't work as well. i can make calls but it doesn't show any video. the weird thing with ooVoo is that when i try to select my device, it says that the model that i have isn't supported. maybe because i'm using the Wifi version only?
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone know of a Camera.apk that will not FC at LCD densities below 182?
Is there a hack that can be otherwise applied to make it work?
Thanks!
PS: I am currently using the attached APK from MIUI, and it is working great under Overcome 1.6.3... however, it lacks 720p recordign support, hence my request...
The tab can't do 720p so you can stick with the miui if you like it.

I don't know how you did it, but with the official camera.apk I can only get 720*480. So it's not 720p for me.

I stand corrected! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/720p
I gotta brush up on my HD nomenclature.
We know what 720p is. But the fact is the galaxy tab can only do 720*480 and not 1280*720. So it definitly not 720p.

With Lgcamera app you can record 800x480 _ h264 compression in mp4 format. And ... by the way Galaxy tab is able to record in 720p if you know how to modify camera app, build some libs and compile a kernel.

does anybody know how to capture video on Lg Optimus 2X? Screencast app doesnt work with tegra 2. are there any other options pls?
I have no idea what you're talking about or how to help you, but it might be nice to post some more info like for example what ROM you are using and kernel.
Well, i think Rom and Kernel dont matter here, i just need to know if there is any chance of recording video (of what im right doing on my phone) and i said i know there is a program for it (called ScreenCast, but this programm doesnt work with Tegra2/3 devices). So my question is, is there any other way to record like that?

eraldo I had trouble understanding what his objective is too, but I think I understand now... he wants to record video of what he's doing on the phone... like fraps for the PC.
You'll have to make due with screenshots I guess...
Tegra 2 does not support NEON, and does not manage the display via a framebuffer so screen video capture isn't possible.

Tablets are different and your device obviously uses a frambuffer the o2x does not, however tegra 2 doesn't support NEON at all.
You may use Droid Explorer or Android VNC Server, for getting video by usb cable on your PC. But for this method frame rate is very low.
I use screen recording software to do that. It is not only able to record onscreen video, but also can take screenshots.
Nexus 5 front Camera only records video up to 720p! What a shame! I hope it get's a mod to record 1080P for video chats...

Yup, Nexus 5 front facing camera video recording sucks....I was hoping it records 1080p now. Cuz it's new and Google didn't even pointed that one.
I saw a Chinese phone commercial with a 10 or 13 MP front facing camera with wide angle lens and BSI, I wonder if we got those innovations in US markets,,,I love taking selfie photos and skype video chat or hangouts. It would be a great option.
Seriously getting so sick of all these complaint threads.

Doesn't really matter what the front camera resolution is for video chat apps. Skype and hangouts will compress your video to 480p levels and lower so your 1080p camera is practically useless unless you take selfies and video through the actual Camera app.

Agreed. Tried video chat with my wife aver Hangouts and it was subpar with her on a mobile connection. I'd rather have 480P or less and it actually be a video chat than a web cam chat from 2001.

"Camera

1280x720=921600 or .92MP
1920x1080=2073600 or 2.07MP
Which one of those numbers fits within the bounds of 1.3MP? Google made it pretty clear.

Not really! Skype supports Full HD video chat and it will only get crappy"compressed" if you have bad internet connections or the the WiFi speed can't support large data bandwidth for HD videos.

As far as I am aware, Skype for Android does not support HD video. Skype for desktop supports Full HD video and I believe Skype for iPad/iPhone supports HD video.

What you are thinking abut is the Oppo N1, a 5.9 inch phablet with a rotating camera. No company is going to put a 13MP font facing and back facing camera into a phone (at least not yet). For one it wouldn't fit not to mention the N1 is a $580 phone and you are comparing it to a 350-400$ phone.

Quit using the price as an excuse for everything, the nexus costs the same to build as pretty much every other phone. The reason it costs less than other devices is that Google is a marketing company so they save on those costs and they lower their profit margins compared to Apple and Samsung. This isn't the place to discuss this but im getting sick of reading "what did you expect? Its a $400 device"
Heck, some of the people in this forum would argue its fine for a $350 Nexus device to not even make calls since its only $350.

my youtube app only shows 720p max, really annoying, I tried the desktop method in chrome but it didn't appear to load, I kept getting loading error message when it played, when the video attempted to play it just froze my browser (chrome)
Found a better method if I want to see 4k video on my note 4 however more long winded, I downloaded tubemate app from amazon app store, this allowed me to download full 4k quality test videos and play them
You can upgrade your YouTube app and view 1440p. Search around for it.
Just if you are rooted though right?

I believe so, You will need to remove the old app to do so which require root.
This is really ticking me off. What's the use of a kickass screen if you can't feed it properly with content?
Fullhd doesn't work on the nexus 7 either
Check this 1080p 60 FPS video! This is waaaay better than 4k at 30 fps if you're not using a tripod. You get MUCH less blur when moving the phone.
