Hi,
I m just wondering what other camera app that you guys can recommend to replace stock camera ? Something that is faster and have good image stabilizer, filter is just added bonus. For day to day/indoor shooting most of the time. Thx
camerazoom fx, perfectly clear both these r good. If you install a 4.2 ROM someday, the stock camera is indeed fast
Will try, thx. I m on 4.1.2. The camera is no diff compare to stock ics

Edit 1:So as the tittle said, i was thinking of reverting back to 4.4...When i bought the phone , it was already on 5.0.2 and now i'm on 6.0.1 (.291 version)...As far as i'm concerned, no improvements have been done on camera from 5.0.2 to 6.0.1 (also, I face a bug and the last 1-2 seconds of the videos i record are frozen, and no, it's not my sd card's problem as i tried storing at my phone's storage)
The question is: Is stock camera on 4.4 better than 6.0.1?
Edit2 : I flashed 4.4 on my phone. Yes, the bug is real on 6.0.1...camera on 4.4 is almost 2 or 3 times better than 6.0.1.
Auto focus on 4.4 camera while video recording is just amazing guys...
Edit3: Flashed 6.0.1 again. The bug i described on Edit 1 dissapeared(!)
As for the video recording, on 4.4 autofocus worked automatically and really, really fast! When I'm on 6.0.1 I MUST use the camera button so as to make it work fast just like 4.4 did automatically. Hope this helps other users!
Yes 4.4 is absolutely better. I wrote thread in general section, my reasons why 4.4 is better.

Camera and video shooting at 4.4 was 10 times better than on 6.0.1. BUT i detected certain bugs (snapchat lagging, i guess it's not well optimized for 'old' android versions)
But video shooting is REALLY bad at 6.0.1 guys...is there any way to use 4.4 camera app on 6.0.1? Autofocus needs almost 15 seconds to change focus and i still haven't found how to touch focus on Sony devices while video shooting! I would really appreciate some help on these things!

Sound on speakers is better at 6.0.1 but i think sound at headphones work better on 4.4....
I'm so confused....if only i could use Sony's 4.4 Camera app on 6.0.1! That would be great!
Can someone post a link to flashable zip with root and recovery of .77 build?
There is 1 link on the forum but from MEGA and I can't fully download it :/ Some others mirrors maybe?

Ever heard of Cyberian camera? I am on latest 6.0.1 and have flashed that camera mod, and I can tell you pictures and video are a blast,
low light photography at its best, and also hdr for 4k, and lots of improvements, you just need root and latest version of sony rom (.291)
Here is link to mentioned mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony-themes-apps/mod-cyberian-camera-t3267271

You'll need to ftf back to 4.4 if you are on 5.1 or 6.1....then you can flash recovery and then flash whatever you want...use flashtool to ftf back to stock on 4.4

Ahh damn! I just flashed 4.4 again... Again 10 times better photos and 5x faster autofocus on video than 6.0.1!
Thanks for your time lad!
Edit: Is 120fps REAL?! I'd really want to see a video from you and one photo outdoors late night without lights if possible! If that is easy for you then I'd be really happy!

Pretty cool photo for low light! The video quality on 120fps ain't that good i think, do you? It's the same quality like timeshift video!
Thanks for your time once again.

my bad, that was timeshift video from before cyberian
you need to count in that this is reduced quality due to automatic downgrade when uploading to onedrive

Makes it sound million times better.
Do you perhaps have rooted version of 4.4? After all your talk I am eager to try it out

I haven't rooted 4.4, i don't like rooting and experimenting wirh it since everything rolls just perfect.You should really give a try, specially for the camera... Video recording focuses 10 times (for real 10 times) faster than 6.0.1 (both stock unrooted without mods), and camera quality is really better!
Also, booting takes about 18 seconds only on 4.4...
If you're using Snapchat, it will lag ( i'm not using heavily, only once a day, so it's not a problem for me), but i'm not using Facebook so I don't know whether it lags or not, but i guess it will work flawlessly. Be sure to keep a nandroid backup before checking 4.4 out!
Let me know if you have any other questions I can answer before you jump on 4.4.
For me the best ROM has been the Concept ROM. It has built-in Doze, nearly as stock as AOSP, battery life is great and it is really stable, fast. Less apps, better ROM. KitKat is great in performance but as it doesn't have Doze, it gives me less battery life cause I don't like to use Stamina mode whatsoever. I love KitKat too, but I hate KitKat's notification panel and settings icons. Concept provides you the most modern looking and one of the most stable and lightweight ROMs out there. As for the camera I use Cyberian Camera, despite it is not optimized for Concept, it is stable and better than the stock. Concept uses stock framework (same as 6.0.1) and haven't had any issues with it, also low-light processing is great!
TL; DR : Try Concept too!

I would, but like I said i don't like to root and install recovery, since i'm still on warranty (will be until December 2017) and since stock roms work perfect for me (except video recording on 6.0.1. .291). Thanks for your reply though.
Edit: I just saw that this ROM does need only ftf file, is this rom the one you're talking about? ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/sonys-android-concept-marshmallow-t3229536)

Yes, it is the one I'm talking about! You can find the latest (still you'll need to update it) FTF here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/list-stock-firmwares-d5803-d5833-t2906706
You'll need to update it a lot if you download from the link you added.

I tried 4.4, for the first two days i was clean as it gets, but the battery lasted only 3.5h of sot, camera on the other hand was just okej, colours were a bit washed out (comparing to cyberian on MM), and view finder was laggy (cyberian has smooth viewfinder-best thing for me). I also tried video recording, and it was also not that special, focusing speed was the same as it was on cyberian. So after rooting and finally deleting all the bloatware (can't stand it) I realized 4.4 was not for me. So I restored my latest backup of MM and I can tell you I'm glad i tried 4.4 because it made me appreciate MM and my cyberian camera. Btw I am on MxRom fyi.
Just wanted to say this, enjoy and cheers
Hello guys,
I´m in search of a bug-free camera app, which gives good results.
Personally I think it´s shame what kind of softwar sony has released to the whole z series, taking into consideration the "soft-skin" bug is still present, no matter which Android Version or App we choose.
So that´s the reason I been searching for a camera app/mod, which allows me to take pictures that are matching the capabilities of this phone as described.
So far I tried these mods:
Cyberian Camera 6.0 - Fisheye Bug, makes it unusable for me
ZR-Cam: Not working with Z3 Lollipop 5.1.1.
Z5 Mod and Libs
None of them been bugfree or gave good quality results.
So I ask the community kindly:
Is there one app for Lollipop preferably, which gives good results and is bugfree?
Regards and thank you in advance!
Have you tried stock KK camera? I was on 4.4 just because of the amazing camer shots it could offer! BUT i flashed 6.0.1 and installed Cyberian(the one you tried too) and I'm still on it ( i haven't faced the Fisheye bug).
You should backup your phone and give stock 4.4 camera app a try!
Well, the fisheye bug only appears on Lollipop IV cyberian. You think there´s a KK ported camera App for Lollipop? I don´t think so tbh
I wish there was such a port.... My bad. What I actually meant was install 4.4 ftf... Best stock camera you'll get...( 10 times better than LP stock and MM stock,specially on video recording! )
Hello,
I am running my Moto X Play on lineageos 14.1 .
The built-in camera app is not that good like the UI and performance. I am looking for a way to get the stock Motorola camera apps preferably from the Moto G4 or Moto Z devices.
Installing just the apk won't work as then I am unable to move the storage to SD card.
My device is rooted and changing build prop and flashing zips is not a problem if that solves my problem.
Also if there is any way of getting the Google Camera app V3.1 or higher to work without crashing on video mode and such problems it would be awesome.

That is not 120fps.
Stock ROM and stock camera can take 720p 120fps
