Downgrade from CM9 and a Camera question

Hi.
At the moment I am using the Nova HD Plus ROM, which is a great ICS Kang, but I sadly cannot record a thing with it. Tomorrow I am going to a Sports event I would like to take some videos.
Is there something I should be aware when downgrading?
Also which ROM provides great quality videos. I used to use temasek`s KANG ROM and since he is back, I might use his ROMs again, but are there any ROMs with better video quality? Also, which kernel to use with?
Thanks in advance!

Dont think that you should worry about when changing rom. Except that you have to do a full wipe!
Go for Tamaseks KANG and Etana Kernel. Best performance and stability.

Due to the lack of media acceleration, video recording doesn't work yet on CM9. We just have to be patient.

Hi!
If you would rather not risk a downgrade you can download an app to record in standard definition. I don't recall the name of it though, but I'm sure you'll find it around here if you search for it.
And I think a full wipe is enough, not sure if a "backtoExt3" is necessary though.
EDIT: As you can see in this thread

[Q] Which camera app is best?

I will buy LG Optimus 2x for a month, and i realy need good camera(photos and video), so i have a question, which camera app is best ? i will not using stock rom, i'll using probably cm7/9 or something else, sorry for my bad english

Hmmm, first of all good choice to root and flash your O2X because stock LG rom sucks. But the thing is, the only real good thing about stock LG is the camera... (oh the irony... )
Anyway, when you're on CM7 you can flash a camera mod for the rom to improve the camera a bit, but in my opinion it's still not as good as stock. I don't know if there's such mod for CM9 though...
As for camera app, I'd suggest camera360. It's free and works great!

I prefer Camera Zoom FX..

Thanks for answers, is there camera app which is ported from lg stock rom ?

Don´t think so, but the stock camera app is great, try copying it from /system/app/ before you flash a ROM and then install it again.
But make sure you put it in /system/app/ before install, and you must have Root for this.

What is so good in stock camera? There are modded camera apps which can make higher fps and bitrate videos.

I personally think that the stock camera is better than anyone in a custom ROM, because I find it to be the fastest one, I’m also a fan of the UI. But that just my personal thoughts...

@Mylleranton, i think that will not work becouse custom rom doesen't have some libs for stock camera...but i'm not shure.
@powwow88, higher fps ? please give us a name of that camera !
@sjcunha, ok, i'll try it when i buy phone

These are exchanging the base camera.apk(not 3rd party camera apk) so you can still use camera360 or whatever you like with it.

I prefer Vignette It makes great pictures with high contrast

Camera Zoom FX works nice
You have many Options to edit youre Photos in much ways. The Photos look awesome.

I'm using the ported stock camera for CM7, it's both quick and makes great pictures and also works best for video recording.
You can find there download link under temaseks download links.

Video recording problem (Zeus v6.36)

Hello forum,
In all the Zeus Roms I've tested, there is a recurring problem and it's related to the video capture. The recording breaks/stops from time to time, and I was wondering if I'm the only one with this problem.
I've recorded a video example, please check @ 0:06. It freezes the image for almost 2 seconds
Please let me know if you have a similar problem, or what ROM you use to record flawless videos.
Thank you!

same here, even you get lags, i hade the same issue, it' from the phone it self.. not the rom

Actually, I think I had a better video recording experience in previous versions or different ROMs, including the stock one.
Anyone manages to successfully record videos? Please tell me what ROM do you use.

I have the same problem and as far as i know there is no solution to it. I have workaround however: I use another application for video recording - CameraPro and the downside is that I record in TV quality 720 x 480, but the video does not shutter anymore. I know is not the best solution, but at least I get usable videos.
PS: I use Zeus (for 4 months now) on version 6.37 now.

So if the problem is in the software, there must be some ROM out there that gets around this problem. I'll try some more when I have the time.

I guess it scales according to the resolution of sensor.
Automated reply by JARVIS

I guess so dude!I don't know about stock moto x play camera..but i compared the size of this camera with a better camera...and photo size is much smaller with same resolution,also I think better quality!(at least indoors) ???
I wish if someone can edit this camera to use bright white screen flash on selfie camera instread of this yellow-orange,for more bright selfies!

I installed it, worked fine. Then I said never mind ill go back to stock camera... well guess what you cant. I uninstalled G4 camera, unfroze stock camera, rebooted, and now stock camera crashes when I launch it.
edit: Ok never mind I figured it out. Even after uninstalling G4 camera I had to uninstall the camera update from the stock camera.
By the way I uninstalled because there is a clear lag when moving the camera around, not a huge one but noticeable when comparing to stock. To the people asking if it supports 21mp it does but the UI will only show 16mp but if you look at the resolution of the pictures taken they match stock 21mp resolution.

this is the xda thread for the apps - http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/themes-apps/moto-g4-camera-timeweather-widget-t3382126
I experienced no lags yet and UI shows 21mp.

For me there was no lag and 21 mp option was available. Moreover, in the app info page of this camera app, I had the option to uninstall it.
Automated reply by JARVIS

me also..no lags at all and 21mp ui also there..the only things that don't work is 60fps front video and double twist!but i can ensure that with double press power button,camera starts moooore quickly!also I think it focuses better in veeery near objectes..till now a better camera was the best for me..I inform you that G4 camera overcome a.b.c both in accuracy and colour!if you want I can post a photo comparison..

[APP][CAMERA-MOD][7.1.X] Collection camera Modded [NEWS][12/08]

@Arnova8G2 starting this thread for Mi Max 2. Please feel free to edit the content.

i can warmheartedly recommend this website right here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
listing all current GCam ports from the most important devs in that area
At the moment, it looks like the Arnova8G2 ports are the most compatible ones with our Mi Max 2 phones. v1.2 doesnt have Portrait Mode but works flawlessly including HDR+ Enhanced and basically all Phone Model HDR+ modes. All v1.3 and v1.4 ports dont work well on our phones (lots of black screens). v1.5 beta works better and also includes a working Portrait Mode, however only "Nexus 6" Auto and "Pixel 2017 ZSL HDR no PD" Phone models work concerning HDR+, all others cause a black screen. Thus, HDR+ Enhanced is not available.
So its either v1.2 including HDR+ Enhanced due to lots of HDR+ phone models working properly, but without Portrait Mode
or
v1.5 including Portrait Mode but only with regular HDR+ due to just two phone modes working for HDR+
cheers!

Updated to V1.5Beta 2 and it's a lot better, Potraits works front and back. Motion took picture but nothing is saved.
I noticed Nexus 6 is really slow in processing
EDIT: Pixel 2017 ZSL HDR No PD/Pixel2 seems faster but stuck at processing HDR+ in gallery and photo never saved

Hi. yes, I do have the configuration that you mention. from old versions, 1.3. to me the video gives me failure. in version 1.5. recording at 4k I have no problem. if under the resolution to 1080 recording at 30FPM / 60FPM to take advantage of the stabilization, I get an error. therefore I have it at 4k and no error. the rest works great for me. Keep investigating. I have the .21 version of xiaomi eu. The other scrubber app works for me.

ah yes, versions 1.3 and 1.4 are no good, video doesnt work there. stick to either 1.2 or 1.5.
as for sub 1080p with video stabilization, i think thats miui related, since another member posted something similar. i have no troubles at all with video recording on lineage os 14.1, no matter which resolution or camera is used. stabilization is always switched on btw.

have u given proper storage permission for the app? also, have u installed the modded media_profiles.xml file in system/etc for proper usage of slomo and 60fps? maybe one of those two is the culprit in your case...

well im assuming you have root access, so:
- download the modded media_profiles.xml file as part of this zip package here: https://mega.nz/#!MKYyWaDL!zUzUivAblq9watfHBvFuCfhC0pBJMqgd6OalVSMLvHw
- unzip the package and overwrite the stock media_profiles.xml file in system/etc directory with the modded one
- set proper permissions of the new file to rw-r-r
- reboot
- test again and see if your issues are resolved
ull need a file manager with root access for that, im using es file explorer pro, for example.
