Just by a show of users Id like to know whether or not those who have installed Instagram's newest update on the HTC VIVID still have issues with front cam pics, when taken they come out like how a broken NES cartridge used to look on your TV. Im looking to see if anyone has experienced the same exact probs so I can narrow down whether its my phone or the app.
Probably the app since were not the only users with front facing camera problems.

Not sure exactly what you mean, but my FFC has always been VERY fuzzy.

The FFC is a lower quality cmos camera, so the fuzziness will always be there. however it is known with devices using ICS the FFC fails to preview pics using the default instagram camera. Ive been emailing tech support and I was told the issue will be resolved soon.
If you disable the "advanced instagram camera" and use the phones default camera, all is well.
At present all photos taken with the FFC using the Instagram camera fail to show a preview, if not, garbles NES like designs...too bad there isnt a cartidge slot to blow compressed air into lol
lol and I understand l, but on my previous android, I had a VGA front camera and it seemed more detailed and less fuzzy than this FFC.

I'm having the same problem I get some off pixilation at the bottom when I preview the picture

At least u get an image on the ffc?
My guess: it's the app.

It MUST be the App.. I see it on my new HTC One X LTE.
Update, as per the most recent instagram release on google play, all problems are fixed. No need to install optional updated gl drivers, although the app works without them now

For some reason this app doesn't seem to work properly on this phone. The lens blur doesn't work, but it works on my Nexus 7. Can someone else confirm?

Same issue here, I installed it and it refuses to work. Tried nearly all possible angles of taking a photo. It says rendering image, but there is no option to adjust the photo blur as there is on a nexus device. Any help would be appreciated, really wanna test it out on my HTC One (M7).
Works fine on mine

Are u running sense 6 ?
Does anybody know if it's possible to add manual exposure to the stock camera like iPhones and the new Google Camera app?

I don't believe manual exposure works for us in the Google Camera because we don't have it in the stock app. If that is the reason, we'd likely have to have root to enable that feature as camera tweaks are located in /system/etc/media_profiles.xml
*edit - those were resolution tweaks from my recollection. Actual camera options my be restricted to another location, still within the /system directory.
Hi,
I'm a former iPhone 5 user who just switched to a 2014 Moto X. I've been having troubles focusing on short-distance text with both the stock Camera app and the Google one. I've tried the very same shot with an ancient iPhone 4 and found no trouble whatsoever. (using autofocus).
What can I do to address it? Should I replace the camera app? Thanks!
Have you tried tapping to focus? Does the camera readjust after tapping the text ?

I've been using the stock camera app, but have wondered if I'm missing something better.. I'm not a serious or good photographer by any means. Mainly looking for something simple, that allows save to SD that will take good pictures

I use the Moto camera app that was stock on the phone. 2 reasons, first, if I want to take great pictures I use my dslr not a phone. Second, I love the twist of the wrist to start it. Usually if I am using my phone to photograph it is because a quick something is happening or about to happen and I can twist my wrist as I bring it up to my face level and the camera app is open and ready to use. Just my 2 cents.

Exactly, I have the same feelings about moto camera. Also you can record video very quickly (no need to change mode like in other apps). Slow motion video is quite fun too. The only thing that I hate is that it doesn't have built in gallery like for example google cam which leads to delays and bugs.
I'm using HTC Camera and it works well.
Snapdragon camera, which I'm really liking.
I'm using Moto camera but the newer version (camera1) ported from Moto G which adds in a better UI and some manual controls
For pics I use the Google Camera with the HDR+ enabled, it takes great shots when there's a lot of light, Moto camera it's ok, but I rather use Google's. I'm also using Footej (haven't used it that much but so far so good!).
Since I'm rooted I have Xposed, whith the Twisty module I can enable the wrist twist to open any of the cameras I want as default.
For my use of a camera and I have tried many, I really like Open Camera from the Play Store. It offers some of the best options and features without getting all gimmicky.
Using two camera apps, Camera1 from the play store (Motorola's New Camera) for taking pictures and Open Camera for video recording
I have been using "DSLR Camera" from the store for about the last two years. Does everything I want with no fuss.

But don't think it would suit as a system app because there are way to many features
I prefer SnapDragon Camera. I believe you must have a caf kernel in order for it to work correctly.
