Possible 720p camcorder fix for CyanogenMod.

Instead of trying to keep up on the two CM threads that are already going and talking about the exact same things I figured I would start up a new thread and see if this fixes anything.
--------------
I will admit... I don't know jack about programming... but I am good at messing with stuff and seeing if it works. I got a little bored tonight and noticed there was a new change to the MIUI ROM that adds 720p recording. So being Halloween... why not Frankenstein a little!
I grabbed the camera.apk from the MIUI ROM (its an AOSP ROM.. so it should work right? lolz). Copied it over to my clean install of CM6.1 RC2 and boom... no crashing recording using 720p.
I have recorded about 30 videos now that are anywhere from 2 seconds in length to 5 minutes... one after another... without a crash.
There are a couple options missing that CM has... but I think this would be a good start to resolving the issues.
Please keep in mind.... there are a couple things you will need to do.
1. Download the following APK. (see below)
2. Using root explorer... browse to /system/app and check the current permissions for the existing camera.apk. It should be rw-r--r--.
3. Copy the downloaded camera.apk and replace the one in /system/app.
4. Change the permissions of the new camera.apk to rw-r--r--.
5.Close root explorer and reboot your phone.
6. Open the camera app, switch to camcorder. Using the onscreen menu, change the quality setting from high to custom.
6. Now select the top option to change the video quality. Select 720p.
7. Profit.
If you don't know how to change permissions... or know how to copy apks... please.. please.. please don't do this. If you are comfortable with it... let me know if it keeps crashing.
I know it doesn't have all the fancy settings the CM camera does... but I think this may be a very good step forward. So far.. It hasn't crashed out on me.
If you are going to do this and record one video and say its fixed... please dont bother. We need REAL testing.
The camera.apk can be downloaded here....

Thanks all... if this ends up not working... I blame the to much beer.
If it does... we may be on a good start to getting this fixed. Cheers.
Oh yea... if you are using the camcorder.. you can turn of the screen and it wont force close when you turn it back on. Win.

Here's an update.zip for it. Flash via recovery. Also added the original CM camera from the Incredible build. I'll post a few cameras for you guys to test.
Thanks goes to the OP for getting this in motion.

Thank you... I'll admit it... I fail. lol. Just trying to be of some help getting this fixed.

I have tried the Nexus camera.apk in the past... it had the same issue.
It seems that the 720p issue exists on most if not all of the CM builds.
The only difference I see from face value is that CM camera builds have the crazy auto focus. If you are in a quiet place, listen to the camera itself. It physiclly moves inside the housing.
If you ever happen to hear the camcorder app FC, you can hear a little "click" right before it force closes. That is the camera lens moving.
It appears that the auto focus is messing everything up. Without autofocus (the MIUI camera.apk)... everything appears to work as it should.
As soon as you throw in the fancy auto focus stuff... it causes crashes.
Food for thought. I don't know a lot about it... but progress is progress.

Thank you for a zip version, Root explorer doesn't work on AOSP roms for me, is this common across the board?

Works for me. Are you sure you gave it root access in SU with the remember button ticked?
Also, good to see that somebody took the initiative. I had posted in the CM forum this afternoon that the MIUI Rom had functioning cam but nobody seemed to notice and I don't have much skills - glad to see camalus did - going to try this right away...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8931211#post8931211

I swapped the MIUI camera with root explorer and recorded 10 videos in 720p. The camera didn't fc on me at all. The videos looked good and playbacked smoothly on my phone and computer. The camera at times would get hung up for a second or two but I'm not complaining at all. Got a working camera now!

I just found that if you turn the focus mode to off in the camera settings with the camera that comes with cm6, this also allows you to record in 720p with no force closes. Funny its such an easy fix. As long as auto focus doesn't mean the world to you.

I have suspected for a while that the auto focus was causing issues.
I just loaded the patch on the newest nightly... no fc either.
I sent a message to koush on twitter. Hoping his intelligence can pinpoint this in more depth.
Here's to hoping!

Works perfectly for me. Taken 4 test videos in quick succession, no issues whatsoever.
Did not realize this was even an open issue. I believed this was already in the CM6.1 chain for inclusion in RC3 or whatever.

Ok. Just wanted to report my findings after flashing the zip file. The only settings I change in the camera was quality to custom in order to get the 720 resolution enabled.
Video #1: 1 min, 22 sec
I stopped recording of first video and without closing the camera app I started a 2nd video,
Video #2: Started recording and the camera freezed (FC would have been better) after 22 seconds. Had to pull out the battery to restart the phone.
In summary, is still not fixed. I'll revert back to the original Camera.apk.

I had a clean install:

3) Install gapps
4) Wipe dalvik
5) Flash Adrynalyne's kernel: I have SLCD and the stock kernel does not work for me
6) Reboot until the homescreen
7) Go to recovery and flash camery fix
8) Reboot to homescreen and try camera

Yes. The MIUI adds the 720p non-fc functionality, or at least it has so far.

[FIX] Possible fix for CM 6.1 Camera FC issues-MERGED 20101122

The fix below has been merged into the nightlies!! expect to see it on the 23rd.
If you're impatient, you can install a compiled version of the apk from recovery...
---------------
The camera issue is for ALL of cyanogenmod, not just us dinc users.
I've grabbed some of the patches that are being worked on and put some of my own work into it.
Please let me know what you find.
For me, it crashes almost every single time if I use continuous focus, but it's fine with infinity.
Screen off and on works without FC, but the camera is hard coded to not allow recording with screen off.
1. Backup
2. Flash aosp-camera-fix-v1.0.zip
3. reboot..

flashed
Just flashed, off to a meeting but will report back shortly. I would love to be able to shoot video in 720.

in to see the responses

no issues
No FC in continuous or infinity mode. Shot about 10 minutes of video in both. Screen off then on kills recording. Still no 720p recording mode though (not that this was supposed to fix that, I was just hoping).
Recap: No camera/video FC in either mode (continuous or infinity)
Thanks for this

...

To get 720 p.. Make sure quality is set to custom and file type is mpeg4, then it should show up in the settings.

Someone alert camalus!

I will be flashing this after work today! Thank you!!!

hi seanzer. on cm nightly build #161 - issue: when on videocam, and i turn off the screen (recording or not), when you unlock, the videocam becomes almost half the size of the screen (with the preview screen almost a quarter the size, and is now on the lower left), and it's unresponsive.

Fixed my Nexus One
Installed on CM 6.1 on a Nexus One, fixed the camera for photos, haven't tested the videos.
Symptoms: Camera keeps crashing after a few shots. Force Close the application and if I tried to run it I only got a blackscreen until the Force Close window appeared.
It also rebooted my phone one 2 occasions.
Installed using Rom Manager:
Install from SD
Selected .zip
Backup Rom (Yes)
Wipe (NO!!!)
Everything went smooth.
Now I'm taking pictures, modifying settings, Touch Focus, everything seems to work.
Took 20 pictures in a row and fast.
Thanks for the fix

I had high expectations on this one, I tried it but I still get FC on the camera.
I have a Magic and I am running the CM 6.1 Rom

If you look at the resolution of the 8mp wide setting on the stock sense camera, it's not actually 8mp. It's really the same as 6mp wide on the CM camera.

[ROM] [MIUI JB] Fully working

MIUI 2.10.12 ported from MIUI Passion.
I spent a fair lot of time trying to find the best MIUI so suit our HTC. And trying different methods for diffing and mods, from 2.9.21 til 3.1.11, porting from crespo, maguro, passion, P500 etc. This is the only version i could get to have most of the features working.
Since i don't ask for any contribution or donation, so for whoever is not happy with it, don't use but don't criticize my work trying to find reasons why not to use it.
A thanks is enough if think it worth.
If you want to change it, modified it, and so on, do it, no permission needed.
I'm not a full (probably not even partly) developer so i won't be able to answer to your questions on a daily basis.
Use it at your own risk
Flashing instructions:
Wipe Data
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik
Install
Reboot
Working:
- Everyrthing that works in CM10 - on top headset icon works too
- themes, lockscreen and all that
Not Working:
- torch, use from store
- you may find, i didn't yet
Hints:
- If have issues turning wifi on, put it in Airplane mode, try turning on then reboot
- if laggy long press home button to clear memory
- CPU control via toolbox app

Hi, on MIUI all apps are on the screen(s), no apps menu. T'hat's how MIUI works (if this is what you asked for). You can put icons on top of each other and this will create a folder icon with all apps you want to group and you can name it i.e apps. When installing a new app, an icon on the screen will be created automatically
If you ask about managing apps, it is in settings like usual (choose full settings to display, not common settings)

This one is better, by quite a bit. It's way more usable. I've noticed better battery life and faster keyboard input as compared to zeubea's CM10...
no bugs so far, i'll report if i find any. (apart form the system space which is next to empty)

it runs very smoothly
but how can we get 512MB RAM???? and we can't have enough free ram.. just around 30mb?

Hey thanks for this great rom. I have asked a friend to try this rom out since she has a htc legend and I don't. She is very happy with the rom but she reported back two problems.
1. wifi does not turn on (this began to happen right after she setup an APN for her gprs network) (also she tried putting the phone in airplane mode.. turning the wifi on and then rebooting.. didnt work)
2. vpn doesnt seem to be working anymore. is this the case for everyone else also?
thanks again for your hard work mate

Hi,
Yes, the memory shown under "About phone", "RAM and "Total" is wrong. The "Available" figure is accurate for both internal and SD card. These totals are coming from ported

Is there a fix for the wifi issue?

Everything indeed works.Great rom.
Lockscreen will be laggy if not changed to one without spectrum. Rest seems to work good, if not better than on other roms. Testing battery life atm.

and still same problem. can anybody suggest which is the best cpu governer for this rom? or can i use ck kernel? or any other tweeks for this?

[app-info] Moto Camera w Adv features & Gallery (updated 11/14/2015)

For anyone wanting to have the Motorola Camera on a custom rom,
or one with more options,
check out this thread by S0bes:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/app-camera-galery-t3216944
I can confirm that it works great with the AICP rom
and the CM12.1 rom
This is an installable APK, not a system app, so it doesn't replace the system camera.

thanks for the heads up. cool to use on stock rom too bc you can turn noise reduction completely off which takes away that oil painting look. nice!
Sent from my Moto X Pure Edition

worked great on a rooted stock rom clark... tnks!!!

Thanks for this but I just can't get it to work a hundred percent. It's like the touch screen is just off. On initial start up I have to hit the back button to get off the start up screen. I can't get the video camera to work cause when I tap on the video icon it just takes a pic. I can barely mess with the settings because half the icons won't do a thing when I tap on them.
It's like the screen calibration is bad.
I've uninstalled, reinstalled and redownloaded the apk. Wiped data within the app. I'm running AICP. Didn't work right on the 10/14 build and still not working with the 10/16 build.
Any suggestions? Is this working fine for anyone else?

I am running the latest AICP 10/16,
I don't have any of the issues that you are describing,
the buttons all work when they are pressed
and the screen focuses and takes a picture where I touch the screen
Did you change your screen density off of the default 560 dpi?
Also I haven't changed any of the settings in the Moto Camera, just using it the way it installs at this time.

I had issue when changing DPI on the screen, all the icons didnt res correctly. I just used Xposed with App Settings and set the original DPI... It worked a treat

Thanks guys yeah I changed my DPI I'm sure that's the issue. I've used that Xposed Module before I'll go ahead and get that up and running.
Thanks again I should have thought about the DPI.

so nice to be able to turn off that bad noise reduction that happens even in daylight... pictures look so much better. I wish there was a way to set this to be the main camera app when you do the twist motin.

I had read in the Moto G forum that if you change the release-keys to test-keys line in the build.prop that you could get the extra settings. But I tried that and it didn't work. ?

so nice to be able to turn off that bad noise reduction that happens even in daylight... pictures look so much better. I wish there was a way to set this to be the main camera app when you do the twist motin.

If you are rooted use the xposed module twisty it lets you set the default app launched

For anyone wanting to have the Motorola Camera on a custom rom,
or one with more options,
check out this thread:

I can confirm that it works great with the AICP rom
This is an installable APK, not a system app, so it doesn't replace the system camera.

Yut Kill

ah nice. I don't use xposed though. kills my battery and randomly makes the phone laggy.

I use the xposed module "moto checkbox" for the same advanced settings. The advantage of using this module over the modded apk is that double twist still works

can confirm, but I think the previous posters were talking about using the apk on non-stock roms. hence the need for xposed twist mod.

Just a word of caution. I tried replacing my /system/priv-app/ apps (MotCamera and MotGallery2) with these on stock and it broke my build. Even after reverting the files, it was so screwed up that I had to do a nandroid restore to recover. It might be because of the package names.

It might be because these are specifically designed to NOT be put into the priv-app,
they are designed to be a separate APK that runs in addition to the camera.
There are other attempts elsewhere that try to replace the built-in camera, but all of them I tried break various other things on the phone.
Also is why the following line is in the Op

Is your system still odexed? Was there an arm folder in the same folder with the apk? If so and you didn't delete it when replacing the apk, that is most likely the issue.

So i tried this, and I was able to replace the system app. However it wouldn't work with the twist motion (probably package name.
The deodexed stock has the gallery features built in, so I was able to get the default camera to expose its features though moto checkbox and it works with moto assist.
