just got this phone and it is stock. camera seems very grainy indoors. is the camera quality improved in custom roms such as 10.1, etc? just got it and about to start rooting, but would like to know peoples opinions/rom recommendations if camera works better on certain roms. thanks.
I like the cameras on 4.2.2 roms

The focal camera works pretty good.

Yeah most 4.2/4.3 ROMs have a moderately improved camera.

Hello all.
Did somebody came up yet with a better solution than Camera Zoom FX (can be paid)?
It could be nice to have something like FX, but with touch to focus, sharpness options and some video recorder (as a seperate app) which could do 720p (?)
PS. Is it just me, or is there barely any difference compared HTC 5 and 8 mpx cameras?
I mean, look at these http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire-review-468p9.php
try these
am using UCam ultra which is working fine with more light spaces. where as in less light you will be seeing blurred or some dark pixels...
you can go for multi lens camera also. its different and funny
Thanks, will look at it.
Miui gb camera. You'll have to trouble shoot to get it working properly, but after that picture clarity is on par with HTC sense's camera.

Also Camera 360 is not bad either. A lot of options and good (I think) quality.
Still, in low light the pictures are quite bad, but I think that is a problem of the phone, not the camera app (I have tried several, the same result).
I use camera pro app. Works flawless

I thing best camera app. - stock! But alternative - lgcamera.
In my opinion the "UCam-App" is the best

For some reasons, for all of apps above, there are glitches issue.
Ucam seems awesome, clean interface, useful features. Too bad it doensn't work, it restart right after I taken picture of it.
I think it's a kernel issue if Ucam is force closing.'Cause the app "use" the stock camera to take pictures. And if you're stock camera is buggy, a 3rd app wouldn't work. Tell me if i'm wrong

I get Ucam v2.3 force close only on Lord's IceCold. But works very good with Ucam v1.6.
JellyBean MIUI ROM ported for DHD has properly working touch to focus function with what seems to be the stock AOSP camera... It's a shame tho this ROM has many visual bugs, and using any other app that uses camera (instagram, barcode scanners..) is almost impossible as they give huge artifacts...
The question is, is it possible to somehow port camera used in MIUI JB ROM to AOSP ROMS and not f&^* up qcode scanners?

Using Ucam 1.1.6 on Lords ICS 8.6.1., works like a charm.
Can you upload it please?
hotfile mirror takes for ever to download (limit reached).
Uhm it's like in the first google search result for ucam 1.1.6. ....
Uhm... I'am surprised i missed that
Been digging to deep i suppose ;D
I'm using Camera Zoom FX for about a year, haven't found the better one with at least the same speed.
I really enjoy using camera360

Hello everyone, i've been using 4.2.2 Tonyp rom for the last 6 months, but the camera is really bad. The video recording is horrible, and i am unhappy about owning a phone capable of 1080p recording but not being able to use it.
Is there any 4.1 or 4.2 ROM with good camera ?
Or I have to use the original stock ROM in order to get acceptable camera quality?
Thanks in advance
Have you flashed feav's camera mod? It ports the stock camera app to Cyanogenmod.

Thanks for the hint! I'm facing similar problems, and I try to use @feav mode to improve camera quality.
The last Cyanogenmod nightlies camera quality are not really good enough.
Thanks again for the share!
I use lg camera for photo and video, also motoblur for video and hdr camera for photo
So I'm coming from the Razr M, which was never a top end device even when it was released a couple years ago, but I like it's cam. I've noticed that, and maybe it's just me, but I really don't like how the Moto X pictures come out comparatively. I'm not sure if it's the app itself or the camera. I'd assume it's a better camera than I have on a 2 year old device. Is there an alternative camera app that maximizes the camera hardware? I've tried Focal but not a huge fan. Most of the other camera apps seem to focus on filters and editing. Which is great but I am just looking for a camera app that is better than stock. Either that or a tutorial on the stock app settings. If I was rooted I'd just try my Razr M cam. But not going to root this one for a good while. Any help would be appreciated m

Fv5 works well, but nothing launches as fast as the stock camera and you have to manually adjust settings to see an improvement. The biggest issue is the stock camera cranks up the ISO for some reason. The 4.4.2 update makes it less severe however and I've gotten adequate or better quality since the update.
Definitely 4.4.2 improved the camera. But I'm using better camera anyway....I really like it.

Remember that a lot of camera apps limit your mp to like 2....so a little hard to judge quality. Kinda dumb that they do that. Do a full version time limit trial would make more sense.

I will give a +1 to fv5. I have tried probably 20 camera apps on this phone, and fv5 is the winner for me. It gives solidly dependable results.

For those giving a thumbs up to fv5, I assume you are referring to the paid version, correct? If so, what mp is the output of the paid version?
Sent from my Droid Razr M using xda app-developers app
The full 10.5 MP.

Is there a way to get the 13mp working on cm? Would really love to utilize it.
Sent from my LG-VS980 using Tapatalk
Yea I've noticed that CM doesnt use the stock camera settings in its camera, the quality is horrible. I recommend buying (Snap Camera HDR) it will improve the quality of the photos and is able to capture in 13mp.
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
I have no clue what either of you are talking about, 13mp works perfectly in CM11 a and IMO the CM11 camera takes better pictures than the stock ROM.
I believe their is a modded kk aosp camera in jishnus or xdadebb's post that will work. Its in one of the non variant g2 development sections

Focal on the play store is pretty good and it's free. I've had pretty good success with it and I believe it's made by CM guys. It has a lot of features, but the interface is a bit clunky
I've found that the Jishnu LG stock camera port:
1. Has pretty bad focusing issues
2. You have to exit the app to look at the photo you just took
3. Front Camera crashes the app
That's enough that I won't use it.
Well.....snapchat lol....no better cam is out right now until you actually use liquid smooth....best ROM out

Haven't tried any other aosp roms other than Temasek's. I've used his roms in the past, always a big fan of his work.
