I'm thinking about upgrading the ROM of my Kaiser... but since I've hearing some issues (freezes, incompatibilities,...) I wanted to know how the Camera works.
Does the Camera works as bad as before the patch for ROM 6.0 ?
Thank you!

I am not big camera freek, so I dont have big requirements. But I think the camera is good in outdoor areas or in areas with good light.
seems just as good if not better to me... but like mikulec im not a big camera freak.
Ok, thanks!
I don't think there's much difference in all honesty - it's still slow and blurry in low light. I've not examined the pictures so can't comment on any quality increase there - it does at least have the camera hotfix pre-applied though.

Hello all so I just moved from the Wing to the T-mobile G1 and I have modded my G1 to The Dudes latest rom I believe RC1.3 or something similar but I noticed the camera quality got worst from the regular rooted Firmware which modded rom has the Best camera and video quality
Thanks

Roms won't have any effect on the quality of the camera. Maybe it was poor lighting or something. Did you wipe before loading the rom?
There are only two types of camera software that could possibly affect picture quality.
TheDude uses the HTC camera (which imo takes better photos) and then theres the stock camera. If you want the stock camera, you probably will have to use JF's ROM. Most of the other ROM's have the HTC Camera app
ah ok thanks because i took sum photos in the house with stock camera the pics we're looking crisp but i haven't gone outside with the HTC camera app for lighting i will check it out it will most likely stay due to the features included
I use the HTC camera . I think it's better, zoom FTW!
Lol i found the problem the stupid back cover was dirty i used windex cleaned it out its better now. Does any recommend cutting that plastic off
I wouldnt recomend doing that. It will expose the camera to more dust and the elements
So there are a lot of XDA Delevopers who tried to improve the camera quality of their phones ( f. e. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1855818)
Can anybody improve our camera? Unfortunately I have to rework all my pictures, because the most of them are quite yellowish. I know there are more important things to do here, but maybe somebody has an idea or one of the others developers can help?
Thanks and greetz from Germany, Munich

Would be great if someone improve Camera HAL... Be able to select Iso, Macro or Auto-Focus...
Try this

I usually use this app:
Camera Zoom FX
Just tried vignette, and am kinda disappointed by UI, and quality also is not so much superior to the stock camera. In fact, I have some problems with focusing. There is only a tinny little bit of improvement, which does not push me to use this cam. Threw $2,5 in a bin...
Sorry for that.
Have you tried the code mod?

Can't you request the money back within 3 days if the app didn't work as expected?
patoberly: Don´t know man. I´m new to this, didn´t found any "refund" hints, and it will be three days tomorrow, so I won´t be in time with solving this. Found something, but it sais only refund up to 15 minutes after downloading. It´s more than one day today.
Sui77: You don´t have to sorry. It was my choice. I don´t have my phone rooted, and I don´t want to mess it again (even if I know programming). I´m tired of factory reset everytime some bad setting or badd app installed make problems. Did one reset today, SIM and WIFI loosing connection. After reset and installing just wanted apps everything is OK again. Am tired of this s.... Need clean fast, non problematic system. Have it today, won´t mess it anymore.
Ah sorry I was wrong with the 3 days. It's just 15 minutes, check: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/134336?hl=en

Yeah it used to be a decent time frame to try apps, then they shortened it to less time than it takes to install additional files for some bigger apps... basically a useless refund option now.
camera fv-5 gives pretty decent results compared to stock

I find using HDR on the stock camera has been the best. Even in low light it seems to do better than the flash. If there are any compatible ports I think the newer Lenovo Snap It camera app is the best I've used for a while
Hi all,
I am currently owning Sony Xperia P and I am thinking about an upgrade to SP. But one problems remain. Camera.
I have read a ton of reviews and it seems that camera is producing pictures with a lot of noise and that the camera of older model P, is actually, better.
I have seen that people say that some custom roms and mods solve this issue, but nothing concrete.
Can you please tell me your experiences with camera? Is it really that bad? Any of the updates solved the problem?
thanks

I'm using the Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition camera (gallery app) and this solves any problem with the camera(you can use it on stock and all other roms), from autofocus to noise. So I'd say dont worry about it and get this amazing phone!
Produces great pictures. But besides that, it still is a phone, not a professional camera hehe.

Can you put here some samples of photos taken with stock camera and this S4 camera? Some in dim conditions and some in bright conditions. You know. Some kitchen photos, some landscape with blue sky, etc...
thanks !

No.
Edit: There is other threads about this and not only on XDA. Look before asking or get a real camera.
its true that the camera of Xperia SP is not that good compared to XP or S3.
the pictures are very noisy and yellowish and in low light the camera get more worse.
i have also tried S4 play edition camera, camera 360, moto x camera but no major difference.
I know, there are always problems with the cam in 4.4.2 - unfortunely.
But meanwhile I need a full working cam, so which custom-roms are highly recommend?
Thanx in advance.
PS: I'm well aware that I have to install a version lower than 4.4.2
I have 6 different cameras that work great on rooted 4.4.2 but it is still locked AT&T I-537 so not a complete custom ROM
Including: Stock Android camera, S4 GPe camera, Cymera, Focal and Google Camera. All are free. What doesn't work on yours?
Often the pictures are very overexposed. I can see it in the cam-modus. If I restart the camapp, it is normal exposed.

Would be glad to hear answer to this. Or is it just that every custom ROM (4.4.2) has this problem?
I'm really waiting forward to have KitKat in my S4 Active (nordic countries), as now I can't use for example Polar's sport applications with my official 4.2.*
You can't expect too much from this camera. It will do decent pics, but not more. Which is just fine by my standards.
Stock 4.2.2 camera works best overall, both with photos and videos. For other ROMs (4.3 and 4.4), photos are ok, but the video side has always been poor, regardless of the app or ROM used. Especially the sound volume, which is way too low, really frustrating.
Maybe things will improve with official 4.4.2 and hopefully ROM developers will manage to catch up with Touchwiz when it comes to the camera.
It shouldn't be long now.

I'm now testing unofficial CM11 for SGS4A. I agree - doing decent pics would be just fine, IF camera wouldn't freeze after changing the settings Well, waiting...

I use @spegelius's CM11 build from 03.05 and it's all I need. The only freeze/crash events occur when trying to shoot the first pic after switching to and from HDR. After that it works smooth, although HDR is not really important to me. The other thing is the first film you try to record when switching from 1080p to 720p, which comes out unviewable. I couldn't find any other flaw with the rest of the functions.
The 03.05 is the build you need, if you don't use it already.

Just picked up a Nokia 8, and while I am running camera v.8.1041.71, the quality is terrible.. Its that bad I thought there was a protection seal over the lenses...
After reading around, it seems that there was supposed to be a fix and update for the "Focus" problem, but mine looks bad, especially the "snowy noise" effect in low-light..
I do like the phone alot, especially the Pure Android with an SDCard.
I tried Open Camera, but that didnt help at all...
So, can anyone recommend a good camera app or an update to fix or help
Thanks all ..
Try this, personally i don't like it very much, but it have less "snowy noise"
