Does anyone know of a 3rd party camera app that can utilize the Tab's front camera? I really don't like the built in app, I always have issues with it not initializing the camera. I start it up & most of the time I just get a black screen- I have to manually kill the process & restart it to get it to work. Even when it works its painfully slow & the pics aren't very good.
I've got Vignette & it's pretty good, but it doesn't work on the front cam. Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't mind paying for a good camera app, I just want some suggestions first cause I can't afford to buy every one on the market to see which one works best.
there were a questions with the same THREAD Title , you may wanna have a look in forum Search function
I use camera 360 ultimate, i feel it takes better pics than the stock app, probably just a placebo cause it was $3 lol
But it works with the front camera and has a whole bunch of other cool stuff, there is also a lite version to try out.
You can use the self shot option at stock app. On the problem you are facing, reflash the stock rom that it may solve.

OK, I tried Camera 360, but can't get it to work with the front cam. Is there a setting I'm missing or something?
I did search, but didn't come up with anything useful. Search on XDA has been kind of wonky lately.
I'm honestly kind of afraid to reflash or tinker with it. I've rooted it, but I have the Sprint version. Not a lot of stuff out there for it.
Do you have a wifi only tab by any chance

No, it's wifi & 3G.

Have you flashed any custom roms? If you have i guess you could try flashing it again.
I apologize in advance for asking a question that has no doubt been asked on here before and posted but I cant find my answer. I just recently came to Motorolla from HTC because I needed to switch to Verizon for work and the D3 was perfect. After looking around on here and on the CM site Im still very confused...Is there a CM download (preferably CM7.1) for the D3 or are people just trying to make something work on it. Im not even rooted yet because if I cant get CM Im not sure I even want to. If anyone can answer this for me and direct me to a download it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you all and I apologize again for asking a dumb question.
Yes Hashcode has a cm7 download in the Droid 3 developers forum....it's still got a few minor bugs but overall it's awesome I've been running it for quite sometime now...I don't have a link but look in the dev forum...good luck.

There's a somewhat 7.1 port posted, but hashcode is mostly focused on bringing the 9 up to being usable.

It, most certainly, is good enough to be used as a daily driver. I have been using it since he was able to work out the audio bugs. Around 11/15. It does take some setting up, but well worth it. Just read the thread and Hash's blogspot, you should find everything you need there. Good Luck!

If we got everything working the d3 could get official cm7, I think by the time Hashcode is done we'll have an official cm9, think it depends on the code he uses and the cm guys

That's fine with me, the camera isn't that great anyway but it would be nice to have. How about wifi and GPS? I had CM7 on my G2 and there were a lot of issues with that stuff. Bith are a big deal for me. What's the best bet as far as getting root? Is Psouda's one touch pretty fool proof? I would hate to brick my new baby!

Both SD cards are working in both CM7 and CM9. It's their naming convention that throws people off:
/emmc is the internal emmc storage area (called "/sdcard" in the stock ROM)
/sdcard is the actual sdcard (it's called "/sdcard-ext" in the stock ROM)
And actually the camera will work. The hardware camera does not, but there are a couple software cameras from the market that will. I use camera zoom fx. With very little problems. If you're like me and the camera isn't that big of a deal, these soft cams will work good enough.

What do you mean the hardware camera doesn't work and software camera does?
For any camera soft to work the hardware has to be working...
Do you mean, you can't take pictures with the inbuilt camera app, and can take pics with camera zoom fx?
If so, then the camera works, just the default app does not...
Is this what you mean? If so, then great... If not, what're you sayin'?

I like ProCapture. You can either buy it from the market or do some Google searching to "try it before you buy". (But I really suggest buying it if you like it.)

Is it possible to port photosphere app for CM? (If it works properly)
pianosorcerer said:
So everything from photo sphere , google now and all other features work fine ?? Thanks
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For the few days that I use on the release version(a few RC and nightly version too) and it is also my opinion on our P880
Photo sphere..r u meaning that you can take photo like a sphere? As I know stock CM10.1 does not have it(let me know if it does)......it still provide Panoramic (360 degree) photo... But I will flash and use the stock 4.1 photo apps instead, because only the stock one can make HDR really works and I feel that the picture quality is better.
Google Now....It works.
other functions...
MHL
As I previously said.. if you need MHL output.... sorry CM10.1 is never your choice.. coz' they officially said they won't improve the vertical problem while Nvidia didn't provide api for it.
Force 4x MSAA..
I have read some post said Tegra 3 chip does not support it .... so it won't work too
Gallery link to Google+ or Picasa (let me know if I am wrong too)
As I remember the stock 4.1.1 gallery can link to them, but it will not show it on CM10.1's gallery
No Stock Chinese IME (I am a chinese, maybe it is not a problem for most of you guys)
Well I can understand this, because it is the same as Nexus 4....but you can install an apps for it.
Except you need MHL.. it is really a great ROM...better control, UI and better response than the stock. I have never use benchmark to test any device while the actual feeling is mean more than this. Also, as we all know, the more apps we install the less performance it has.
For your reference (from Stock to CM10.1)
Battery life.... I can tell, it is almost the same. At the very 1st time I truly wipe off all my apps and use CM10.1... CM make a real difference.. but once I have all the stupid apps running now.. it is just the same.
Smoothness... Honestly it did improve!!! Even I have 100 or more apps installed...I still feel it has a lot better response than the stock.
Heat problem... Improve a little bit, but still the system go wrong (slower or restart) in poor condition(ie. hot weather)
For myself CM10.1 release works perfect except MHL for this phone. 4x HD has some hardware issue, but it is still a great phone for its price tag in HK.
Hope it helps and Thanks,
Mike

Are you meaning that you can manually select mobile networks? If that is the case, it works.
For the FM radio problem, i have no idea. I don't know y my release version of CM10.1, doesn't come with any FM Radio app. But i do remember some previous nightly or RC versions has it and it was working. I seldom use FM, so it is also not an issue for me.

How about charging issue?
My device sometimes stop charging at 92%, 96%, 97%.
After unplug charger, the charging resume to 100%.
Sometimes charging goes to 100%.

I've tried 1106 (light) and 1206 (free) and 1106 is much better because you have more options.

You just have to select p880 and it Works and I found por sound, anyway it's available.

Good morning all, picked up this phone to test for my sons. I did root\debloat using the DirtyCow method. I wanted to use a better camera app so I installed the Google camera app which for me worked better. I uninstalled the native app. That broke ALL camera functions. Now no camera app works. Has anyone had this issue?

This means that there are hooks between the camera and the OS that haven't been discovered yet. Earlier CM builds had this issue for other phones too. I'm not a developer but I know a little about code. I'll grab a Logcat to see if something jumps out at me.

It is not supposed to be an issue with the app being used, and rather the libs for the camera. But I will continue to try things out in this direction. Hopefully will find some hidden lib being called by the stock app and not by other apps.

I am far from expert, I don't notice a connection to camera with these logcat entries.
I assume you did not make copy / backup before removing stock camera.
I think this recovery package should restore your camera.
It is files from v17 and v8.3 stock, you never said what version you were on. I can put up version for whichever one you have, since these should only work on v17 and v8.3

Sadly you picked the wrong phone for learning development on, you need to choose another phone.
Blu has decided to lock this phone down, so future users won't even be able to root let alone flash custom firmware.
Even if Blu didn't the development is dead on this device anyway. This phone using Sony camera which no one has been able to get to work on custom ROMs.
One can port to another ROM provided that donor phone also uses Sony camera.
This is 100% the wrong phone to try and learn to develop on.
Best phones for beginners are Nexus and Samsung, simply cause more developer's have these phones, so they have the time to teach.
Phone with few developers are not meant for beginners to learn from, the less developers a device has the less time anyone has to teach.
As far as I know I am the only developer on my current device, it's a good phone, but I don't have to time to teach beginners, that's why I recommended Samsung or Nexus.

Actually, I have plenty of time to learn. The fact that this device has been difficult to work with is the challenge I want. I absolutely don't like Samsung and everybody works with Nexus. If I fail then so be it. At least I'll learn what not to do.

Good luck then, if you have one of the locked preloaders you will learn very soon what not to do.
