SGS+: Cant we include GB Camera on ICS/JB CM ? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi There,
Dont know its really possible or not,still, as we have a Nice Samsung stock Camera available for SGS+(GT-I9001) from Stock GB ROMs, can't we include the same on ICS and JB Custom Roms ?
I know we have a working Camera for ICS CM9 ROM, but the one in GB is Perfect and if its possible to copy the same to ICS it would be good.
If this method is working , the same could be used in JB also, as Camera remains a bug on newly ported CM10.
Cheers,
Kirankumar.

Both stock camera and fm radio are closed source from Samsung, so it's near impossible to port. Blame Samsung.

[Q] XXJVU Camera to ICS?

Hi,
Would it be possible to port the camera from XXJVU "valuepack" to any of the ICS mods?
Or would it not work since its Gingerbread VS ICS?
It wouldn't work if you just port the .apk, it needs some sammy's TW library porting. I haven't tried JVU and doesn't know what's so special in it but you can always use 3rd party camera :]
Btw, panorama in ICS stock camera is a plus

[Q] Two Firmwares at the same time

Is it possible to have two diferent Firmwares installed? I have ICS RC 4.2 installed on my device but I wanted to try S.U.R.F.A.C.E Firmware. I guess it's not possible but I guess it's ok to ask since I didnt find any answer here or on Google.
Thanks in advance!
I don't think it is possible. but i would wait for more experience people to tell you otherwise.
That is not possible,
There is a difference between firmware and a rom like surface or ICS RC4.2.
Firmware is stock rom that is usually brought by samsung of so. a rom like surface is a rom that has a base of a stock rom and is modified and rebuild by a developer.
ICS is stock software for other phones that will not be brought to the SGS, so developers like CM and Onecosmic have been working hard to bring it on our SGS.
But when you're one RC4.2 and wanna go to Surface you switch from the one rom to the other.
Not possible.
It's Possible to change from ICS-rom to ICS-rom and from stock to stock via cwm-backup, but the base must be the same, like gingerbread to gingerbread, not gingerbread to froyo ...

[Q] Custom Rom Camera Issues!

why is custom rom camera is poor compared to stock rom of optimus 2x?
Because there is no media acceleration.
There is already a ported stock camera for cm7 (if that is what you are refering as 'custom rom') somewhere in temasek cm7 thread. It works as good as stock camera.
If you are talking about ics cm9, then there's basically no media hardware acceleration yet because the drivers are not released yet.

[Q] ICS ROM with Samsung Framework ?

Hi,
My wife has Jetpack V9 (XXJVU) ROM on her Galaxy S (I9000) and the performance of the ROM is awful. Very slow most of the time.
In fact, I would like to try an ICS rom on the phone but she uses Samsung's native 3G video call feature which is not available in Android by default. So she needs a rom with Samsung framework.
It has been some time since I checked the ROMS for Galaxy S. Is there any development on this subject ?
I mean, do we have any ICS rom with 3G video call support ?=
If not, would anyone recommend me to use another "value pack" GingerBread rom ? like this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626068&highlight=value+pack&page=31
Thanks.
I would really appreciate if anyone could comment on this...
I think that any rom has it... Because Samsung framework for SGS it's not released by Samsung to be Open Source, so in a CM(7/9) or MIUI are very difficult to find it.
But you could try any latest Samsung modified rom (JW6).
I hope it helps you!
Thanks but what do you mean by Samsung modified rom ?
is it ICS ?
can you give me an example of JW6 rom ?
Samsung modified rom means custom stock rom. There's not Samsung ICS stock rom for our mobile, just a pack with ICS features.
JW6 example:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1689513
You also could try with JW5:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626068
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1656081
Remember that JW6 or JW5 or JW4 don't mean ICS but Gingerbread with ICS features.
There's a lot of custom roms based on Samsung stock. I don't know everyone, these are examples I found.
Don't even try to find any ics rom video call feature ,ics not support video calling try to use skype or fring or use gingerbread value pakcs they are also good (xxjw4)

GB value pack for I9000 is real good. It has everything that's in a stock GB and some new features to spice it up.
But when i used it the WiFi took a long time to wake up from sleep, was really annoyed with that.
If you wanna use video chat i recommend going back to stock GB ROM and flash a nice kernel to speed things up, And try not to brick your phone.
Thank you AnMOS. That's more than enough.
That's the same reason I went back to JW6. I was loving slim ICS but the lack of native video calling compelled me to go back. Why would they not include that feature anyway? It has been existing for the past five years or so (I think).

[Q] Stock 2.3.x Samsung camera.app on JB

Is there any way to port Samsung camera application on JB rom? I know that these roms are missing samsung framework, and simply copying will not work, is there any other way? I tried JB+ camera app from the market, good features, but the video recording lag as hell. Can anyone recommend another camera app that will work with JB ROMs
Thx in advance.
Im using JB 4.2.1 C-RoM BeaN v2 and i find the stock 4.2 camera works very fast and smooth. I suggest you try it.
Device: GT-i9000
Rom: JB 4.2.1 C-RoM BeaN v2
Kernel: Mackay 0.230
Interactive governor
ROW I/O scheduler
Baseband: I9000BVJJPG
RemICS 4.2 rom can also be considered
I am currently using remics 4.2 , its comparatively feature rich, a nice browser, latest touchwiz goodies, and a nice CAMERA too. But i m also missing that amazing stock camera of samsung , itz performnce is simply amazing especially at dark. IS THERE ANYWAY TO PORT IT FROM STOCK GINGER BREAD??? DEVS PLZ HELP :crying:
I think it's impossible due to different camera app code layout. New layout showed up on ICS first, so if you want to have old, good GB camera I suggest you to flash stock firmware

Plus the stock camera relies on full Touchwiz frameworks to operate- which unofficial roms lack...
