Hi community,
I've got a strange problem with most of the 3rd party camera apps on my Ace (GT-S5830i)
When using the default camera app everything worls just fine but when trying to use a different one like camera 360 or Pro HDR camera the preview image is turned by 90 degrees and the image looks somewhat stretched. The results look normal though (if I manage to turn the camera the right way around).
So the question is, has anyone else had the same Problem? Is there a solve for this?
Custom ROMs are no option because there are no working ones for the GT-S5830 with the I behind ;-)
One thing I just recognized: The Apps barcode scanner and barcoo are working properly.
Yes, i have the same problem, my celphone is the s5830m, this phone have a lots of problems, the games 3d dont work in this model. Sorry for my english
Me too
Same here GT-S5830C... some1 can help us?? Maybe is some secret configuration.. lol :cyclops:
Anyone else having this problem.
The camera is great with the official HTC camera app. But if you use evernote the camera is blurry when trying to take a shot and wont focus. Get the same with airdriod (weirdly enough though the front facing camera doesn't suffer with the same problem ???)
Anyone have the same issue and a resolution.
Cheers

I noticed a dramatic difference between the Google Camera and the 3rd party Camera Zoom FX application. The Google Camera brings in a good amount of light into the lens even in marginal situations. Camera Zoom FX is pulls in so much less light. There's no setting I can figure out. Could Lollypop restrict camera access in some funky way that is preventing the 3rd party app from taking full advantage of the lens?
i have noticed this in pretty much all 3rd party camera apps. people have reported that video conferencing in hangouts is also very dark
i have spent all day looking at different camera apps. i cant get "a better camera" to auto focus (but it has better in app lighting), camera zoom fx is much darker than "a better camera" but has good focus. the google camera app from banks gapps seems really gimped (no panorama, no 360, no hdr) and wont let me install the play store google camera (i got 504 errors with banks installed, and 505 when i moved thew camera2 folder from system/apps).
i am now looking into flashing a moto camera app, or trying to flash a closer to stock google camera app (preferably one that doesnt share signitures)

Check out Camera FV-5. They have a paid version and a lite (free). I spent the $3.99 and it works really well. It also has a lot of controls.
Google Play Store - Camera FV-5

you can get good photos if you remove from recents, but the viewfinder is always dark. see attached. pure shamu b3.1/senseiR20.5, rooted.
i can almost get the moto camera app to work... it takes 1080p soundless video consistently, but photos crash the app, and hdr doesnt work

Alright, so I tried to take some pictures in a room with no lights on and only some natural light coming through the blinds. They look dark like your sample photos. Opened the slimGAPPS camera and everything works, including HDR, correct brightness, etc. I haven't tried recording video. As soon as I turn a light on, it seems to work normally.
In the camera fv5 app, I went and adjusted some of the exposure settings and shutter, the photo brightened right up.
Not sure what is going on. I will try a few more things and report back.

It's funny, it doesn't look like the photos themselves are too bad, just the display on the preview on the screen (i.e., the screen viewfinder). I am wondering if there is some Lollypop function that is not being taken advantage of fully by the 3rd party apps.
Taking selfie and video chat with various apps is showing upside down. How do i fix it. Only Google Camera works fine
Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if we can use the wide angle camera for camera apps such as Snapchat and or Camera MX. Itt would be amazing to show off on ur friends.
I think where we should look is how to switch the primary camera to the wide-angle camera.
Your ideas are welcomed!! :good:
Tried WhatsApp & twitter, both let you toggle all 3 cameras.

I have another concern. If there are AOSP or CM-based ROMs in the future, is there going to be a way to make the Google camera app use the wide angle lens? Or even better, be able to switch between the lenses like the stock ROM?
I wouldn't use it as primary because it lacks auto focus but I'd love to switch between them especially for photosphere photos..
It works for whatsapp but it doesn't for Google camera
If Twitter and WhatsApp let you use all three cameras, hopefully it's just a case of waiting for Snapchat and Google to implement support.
Yeah, i guess we need just a little more time for snapchat to support the third camera, specially more up coming phones now have 3 cameras
Don't expect anything from snapchat team. They are super lazy for anything about android.
Try Casper Snapchat client (casper.io) it let's use choose which camera app u want to to take snaps with including lg's camera.
I dont recommend using casper because you get banned from snapchat
