WTF, ICS Camera for froyo/GB but no ICS port cam ?

I came across this article today, read it & immediately thought "WTF is this" ??? ICS cam for froyo/GB but no cam for @maclaws ICS port ?
How is it possible to get that feckin cam on froyo/GB but not for actual ICS port ?
Goddamn ICS+ cam is now available on Google Play (rub some salt in the wound anyone ?)...
What say the devs regarding this new developement ?

@ReaperXL2
you need to check some facts
dev used ICS camera stock app sources and compiled it on GB/Froyo APIs so that that "cool" looks love get to the GB/Froyo peoples
maclaw problem is comletely different as he is implementing camera on "ICS" which is definitely not easy task to do as he have to make camera driver wrapper from scratch sources

Panoramic mode works just the same on it. Just can't edit photos the way u can with ics.

Bro, I did check, but as I am not a "DEV" I did not know the true complications of trying to get ics cam working within ace/ics framework. I meant no disrespect to @maclaw & Team for their exemplary efforts & hard work.
Thank you for filling in the blanks in my knowledge base, I am now more wise with regard to our beloved ics port...
FYI : here is official quote from devs of ICS+ camera...
Quote "Camera ICS is an improved version of the official Camera app included on Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0).

Thanx for that info bro... Giving you a +1 to get you started. Not tried this app yet but wondering if we can use it as a replacement in ICS port until @maclaw sorts it out properly ?

No camera app will work on maclaw ics port.Because its not the app that is the problem but the drivers and libs that are.And those drivers and libs are proprietary .In GB Cm7 we have them as Samsung already released GB ROM. But not for ICS since there is no Samsung support. Maclaw is trying to compile those things which is really difficult since only Samsung knows the hardware and its code.
And an app cannot run without proper drivers and libs.

Flashed and playing with it. After 15 mins, so far so good. Thanks for the up. Like most others here, I've been anxiously waiting for Cm9 on the Inc.

Wouldn't happen to have a link to the github device tree, would you? I've been meaning to work on CM9 for the inc, but haven't had much time (or a spare inc, really; I kind of need the one I got for work and can't take it out of commission).

Thank you so much. I'm suddenly hopeful again, and I'm not overstating it, that we will see CM9 on the Incredible. I was giving up on it, and bummed as hell.

The tree I'm using is from Evervolv, here. Specifically this, with a few changes. I'll have my changes up on Github hopefully later today.

Please forgive my ignorance as I've only recently started researching ICS ROMs for my Incredible, but the other ICS ROMs - abduction, kang, etc. - don't have true HWA, correct? What HWA they have is the result of creative work-arounds by resourceful devs, right? Does this ROM have true HWA? And although they were only recently released, has anyone had any success with the official Qualcomm drivers for the Adreno 200?
Thanks.

My understanding is that these ROMs do have "true HWA" but it's still being improved upon.

A slight correction: the AOKP rom does not have HWA; Abduction 2.0 rom does have HWA, as does the Evervolv rom; Abduction also has a 1.81 version that is non-HWA.

I am running Evervolv and this AM, kushdeck released an Evo 4G rom with working camera preview. I pulled the libs from his ROM and got the camera preview working on the inc! FYI.

so does the video camera not work at all ?

For those that have tried this ROM so far, how is the battery life? In earlier versions of Abduction with HWA the battery life was really bad, is it the same in this ROM? Also, does this have trackpad unlock? I had to revert to CM7 for this because my power button on my inc is starting to act up.

Battery life doesn't seem bad. I'd say around average. I've been playing with it non stop since I flashed it last night, so I haven't given it the full day test. But it seems really solid for a pre-alpha. Can't wait to see what the Inc devs can do with this bad boy.

[Q][I9001][ICS] What is the best ICS rom??

Hi
I know there is no official ICS ROM but i know that people have ported it off other devises so it works on the s+,
I was wondering...
A) is it worth it e.g. are they stable and fast
And B) which is the best, again most stable and fast.
Thanks

As far as I know there are only two stable ics roms - arco's cyanogenmod 9 port and miui v4 which i havent tried, but its based on cm9, so they should have the same bugs. I'm currently using cm9, and its ok for everyday use.
Here are the links:

miui v4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1643676

The best ICS-Rom for me --> Cyanogenmod 9 from Arco
Only Camera, FM Radio and Tethering don`t run...

for me the best rom for ics is ---- doc masters V11

Try ICS333, I havent personally tried it but in the wifi options there is an option called "Portable wifi Hotspot", im pretty sure it should do the job

best rom
Try elite v1.2 rc rom which is super fast and bug less rom

Thanks. cm9 has the option as well, it just doesn't work

Thanks all!
but i was on a s3, and i was wondering is there a port of that because that is slick and has s-talk!!
thanks
P.S. by the looks of it cmod looks the best but was is up with the camera??

Someone must know of an ICS i9000 ROM that supports wifi tethering?!

Update
I have tried a lot of Custom ROMS. I found CM9 Acro the best. Now even Camera is working fine (Front, Back and Video recording @ lower resolution).
MUIU v4 is good, similar to IOS. Lot of bugs. (best part they are reducing everyday).
Paranoid Andriod Ecsatcy is a Tablet like Rom. Can try for a completely different feel.
RemICS is also good with Apex launcher. Need some small fixes though.
Ehndroix is again a good one. Lot of fixes. Can also try it.
Now a days there is lot of work going on so i am happy to see even work progressing on Jelly Bean as well.
hope this helps. Cheers.

I would say the cm9 by arco is the best i've tested.

The best ICS Rom?
In my opinion cyanogenmod 9 is the best ICS Rom and there is a offical "stable" version! I tried the nightly builts for 3 months and had no problems.
Now I'm on cm10 and im missing the stability of cm9.

[Q] [q] parandroid cm10 bugs?

i need to know parandroid cm10 bugs before flashing on my incredible s

Just search down the thread! It's there for a reason Or just backup your current ROM, flash PA and look at the bugs yourself. If it's too buggy, restore your backup and that's it.

Yea, its a hybrid tho, and is inactive.. I suggest u wait for szezso to iron out bugs on CyanVIVOx... I am looking forward to that..

I guess it wouldn't work cause it's JellyBean. I would also say, wait for bugless CyanVIVO, it's the most likely case here

Hi JELLYZ,
I was earlier running IceColdSandwich 8.3. I had faced the wifi issue but it got resolved after I re-flashed the ROM.. post that I haven't faced that issue again.. Apart from this I found that ROM pretty stable..
Further some of the Paranoid bugs which I know:
1. front camera won't work
2. Wifi reception is weak
3. Adjusting in call volume resets the ringtone volume
4. Google now may not work..
5. tablet mode won't have an option to enable USB connectivity...
...
But I would still suggest you give it a try:
1. It is a different experience altogether - not many tweaks is what I found but a visual delight
2. the camera issue can be resolved if you flash the 4.2 camera: there is a flashable zip in the forum which will update the 4.1 camera to 4.2 and the clock and gmail too.

If Google Now doesn't work, I once posted a link to a flashable .zip in the dev-section. Search it up, it should work flawlessly

Any ISC roms with functioning camera yet?

Done a bit of googling and found that supposedly CM9 roms flashed with a camera fix zip will give you a working camera in ICS, however I have downloaded and flashed the latest CM9 rom I could find (KEXEC-cm-9-20121108-UNOFFICIAL-solana.zip) and the camera fix zip yet still no working camera. Do any droid 3 roms android 4.0 and up have a functioning camera yet? Also does anyone happen to know a link to CM9 alpha 7 rom? sorry if this is in the wrong section.
cheers

No ducati. It's the stock kernel looks like. I'll grab the file and see.

Gonna try out Steel droid now see how that goes. Anyone know of any working links to an MIUI rom for D3?

found an old thread about beta camera support
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510485
This thread has some info about beta camera support for ICS. I've been trying it on CM10.1 JB, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm hoping once I hit 10 posts I can get a response on it with some build instructions to try rebuilding it for JB. I'm not sure what sources I should be using that patch against.

That was only a hack used on the old 2.6 kernel to get basic camera running on ics, doubt that its even possible to do the same on our new kernel and on jb

I wonder if there's a way to combine the ducati we have now with the 2.6 kernel for at least the old ICS builds? Anyone know if Hash kept the source anywhere and how it's built exactly?

What exactly is the problem on ICS/JB with the camera of the Droid 3? Is there anything that a "noob" can do to help?

the proprietary gingerbread camera drivers do not work, with ics/jellybean roms, and the d3's unique camera.
edit: d3
Sent from my XT862 using Tapatalk 2

So… either the old drivers have to be adapted or new ones built - from "the community" or Moto. And I guess all cases are not really that likely, right?
And I'ld guess, if there was a camera (and so a driver) relatively similar to the d3's, that would already have been done. That sucks. Anybody asked Moto very, very nicely about that? ^^

I ran objdump on the camera so file and got that it was a camera.qsd8k so file. I wonder if we have a qsd8k camera? Five minutes of Googling and I'm sure the answer could come out if anyone has a good copy of the source for any of the ROMs. I can't figure out how to get it off of Github for some reason or I would try for Hash's work.
