thanks bro, how do you remove the default camera software because it wont allow me to get rid of it, plus the file i downloaded from you wont install over the default file! My camera is weird though, the rear camera doesnt show anything, but when i change camera to the front camera, it actually projects the image! Do you think, maybe the camera is laters? Thanks alot!

I got camera problems with some Ginger Roms here such like CM7, MIUI ... So I'm waiting their fixes ...

Remove your camera apk with system app remover

I'm using rooted gingerbread 2.3.3 used SGS tools try to install camera hack app and ended up making camera not work
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
You can reverse the camera hack by using the script. Did you do anything with the stock E-Mail app? When I changed my E-mail.apk to the new Galaxy Tab version my camera stopped working. Who would have thought that the E-mail.apk could mess up the camera.....
No i didn't mess with the email and how.do.I change the script
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
1.) Start SGS Tools
2.) Go to apply script
2.) select restore_camera.txt
SGS tools is not made for 2.3 so most of the things you can do will cause problems
had the same issue here. reflashed, problem solved
Oh I try that yesterday so I guess I will try and reflash and see how that goes
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
same same. re-flashed but still broken. even the script to return to stock doesn't fix the problem. bastard camera.
Serendipity VII Kernel 4.0
I re flashed the phone and the camera works again thanks for the help you guys would have never thought to re flash the firmware
re-re-flashed and the camera is working. Note to self...don't use SGS anymore.
Also, when in doubt re-flash...when in further doubt...re-re-flash...
oh and don't forget to back it up...

camera.apk from JVR on CyanogenMod 7

Hello,
It it possible to install the original camera.apk from JVR to CyanogenMod 7?
I don't find any camera app which is comparable with the app of Samsung.
Sadly not, but the miui camera isn't too bad for video and zoom fx usa good for stills
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Thank you for the answer,
where I can get the right and latest miuicamera.apk, I tested a lot of them by putting the miuicamera.apk into system/app. But it doesn't work, I can't see it in the Appdrawer.
that´s exactly the problem I have. putting the miui camera.apk to /system/app did not work.

Photosphere will absolutely not work on the Galaxy S models because they lacks a gyroscope. You'll have to buy a new phone if you want that feature. You can change the phone model in your build.prop, it'll run but it will not work correctly.

Probably camera died on you.
It's time to head to your service center or get a new phone.
But looking at the Note FFC quality, you won't miss it.

[App PORT] V20a camera app for CM10.1

This is flashable zip of camera app ported to work on CM10.1 based roms for LG 4X
Stock app plus I added no shutter sound, flashing this you will also loose shutter sound on stock CM camera app.
Thanks to defcomg for help.

thanks, iodak, if this works well, i might be making the switch to CM! a question, does HDR work properly, or are the images blurry? thanks again
No blurr.

Thanks for this port, is it also possible to port the v20a video player?
the stock cm and the stock lg have the same quality (focus, sharpness ...), tested both and saw no difference like the same app with different skins.
So i only need to flash the zip via cwm recovery? (REcovery->install zip from sdcard->choose zip from sdcard->and choose the camera zip)?
or do i need to apply this uodate function or what?
or how exactly i install this?
Ty for help I'm kind of new :3
Btw i got the pacman rom. but this should work together..?

Yes, and the stock gallery app. The stock gallery app, at least the one from V20a can play gifs and is more functional than the one from Cyanogenmod.
Thank you iodak. I really liked the stock camera app.

thx, worked perfect and the app is nice and i like having no sounds, but if i want them i can just turn them back on?
Stock app has 4 shutter sounds to choose from settings. If you want sound to be back an CM app just reflash CM.
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
No need to reflash cm. Your zip doesn't replace the cm camera app, it just adds the new one (what is great imo).
SRY... my mistake... for the sound, you need to reflash... but who really misses the shuttersound?
I think V20C camera app has an option for no shutter sound as it's not illegal outside Europe.
What funktions are more in stock camera?

No, you retain the old cam.
Thanks man! I was missing the "HDR" mode, this is faster that CM.
BTW "time lapse" doesn't work, I don't use it anyway, I just changed the button to flash control.
And again Thank you very much man!
