Hi!
I have noticed that the Note 5 and S6edge+ has the same camera sensor as our beloved s6, but we lack a few options that the bigger devices have, like RAW file selection instead of JPEG and also the shutter speed control.
Can anyone port this to our Galaxy S6?
Should not be that hard?
Yes eagerly waiting for s6+/n5 can app port..???
I'm not a dev but pretty sure you'll also need additional libs for that. Maybe Edge+/Note5 ported ROMs will work with the camera app.
RAW is supported on 3rd party apps like Camera FV-5 whilst we wait for a port
I couldn't find a decent free pro camera app (one with raw support and all) in the Play Store. Open Camera comes close but still doesn't have all the options. It's a bit disappointing that Samsung has not released an update to the stock camera app while Note 5 and S6 E+ sport more options.

I just saw a phone yesterday Samsung Nexus Prime I9250 and the camera is almost same as our phone 5MP with LED flash. but the features and quality of the pictures capture by it was awsome. Then I checked it has update of Android 4.2.2. Its panorama shooting mode is awsome. Is that possible that we mode our default camera to that features camera?? And if anybody has done already then could anyone provide me link? I checked all the threads reg. camera but could not find it so, I created a saprate thread for that.
I suppose you're talking about the galaxy nexus. It has a better sensor. It is capable of capturing 1080P video and also, it performs better at low light.
There aren't any software mods which can totally compensate for hardware limitations. However, you could try installing certain camera applications and see if it helps you in any way.
And regarding the panorama you're taking about, it's called photospehere. As far as my knowledge serves, we do not have any mod for that.

Hi all
Just a question - is it possible to copy/transfer the camera software (or recreate the software) used to process images from the Galaxy Note 4 into a new camera app, then place the app on the Google Play store for download? Maybe a stupid question but I am not a developer.
I've seen so many negative reports on the stock camera on the Nexus 6 and so many underwhelming reviews regarding the camera so I was wondering if a camera app could be downloaded from the store which would drastically improve the camera abilities in both normal and low-light shots.
I specifically state a new app/software which could be downloaded from the store because most people complaining likely just download apps and do not root/install custom overlays etc - maybe something like that could fix their problems.
I wouldn't be surprised if no camera app from the app store would be able to significantly improve the camera experience, bringing it to the same level as the Note 4 in low-light and everyday pictures though - but again, Im no expert on app development.
Hello Good evening
just signed up to the site today and have a question regards to RAW on the nexus 6 XT 1100 (please go easy on me as im not sure if this is the correct forum to ask )
Been along galaxy s4 s5 user and just bought my nexus 6 because of the screen size and the ability to shoot raw also folk have really raved the reviews of this phone being one of the best there is even now
my question is i want to use the stock phones camera app to shoot RAW but read it wasnt enabled and there is no feature on the current version so i have to use camera FV-5 to have the RAW images
my phone is running 7.0 and still no RAW feature in the stock app
is there a way of updating the stock app camera so RAW becomes available or do i still need to rely on 3rd party apps from the play store ?
im not understanding the mechanics of phones nor know how to install APKs so if anyone would be so kind help me out here with answers or instruction how to install whatever it is i need to get RAW working in the stock camera app it would be very much appreciated
thanks you guys
You'll need to rely on third party apps to be able to shoot in RAW. Currently Google Camera does not support RAW, though there are indications in the Android Police teardown of the version 3.2 APK that Google is leaning in the direction of supporting it in the future.
Snap camera is also a promising camera app, and it supports raw capture too.
I don't spend money on apps, to be honest, BUT Manual Camera is one of the 4 apps I have ever bought. I believe it gives great control and is easy to work with. You can try it out, it supports RAW shooting as well.

Second the recommendation for Manual Camera
I have the Asus Remote Camera app installed on my phone, but it doesn't appear on my Zenwatch 3 (which is running the latest stock firmware). Does anyone know if there's a way of getting this app to work on the Zenwatch, as I really miss the remote shutter feature.

The camera app that comes with the watch is no longer compatible it's too old.
If you want a excellent Remote Camera app for the watch here is the
playstore link for "Wear Camera":
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ua.makeev.wearcamera&hl=en
This is the best one, it not only lets you see thru it's "virtual" viewfinder but it
also let's you take videos as well as snapshots and has many other features.
Good luck, have a great day!

Thanks for that. The app seems the work well on the Zenwatch. The only feature that it lacks compared to the Asus Remote Camera app, and it's quite a big one, is the ability to take a photo by turning your wrist. This is unbelievably useful if you're holding the phone with your arm outstretched (e.g. a selfie or an overhead shot), as in that situation you don't have a spare hand available to press the shutter on the watch! I've submitted it as a feature suggestion to the developer.
Hey everyone, quick question. What third party app supports all 4 cameras of xperia 1 ii.. I tried moment because it said it supports all the features and all but in real life it only supported wide angle, main and front facing camera and now all support. And I've tried the proshot that supports all the cameras but is buggy. Any other apps come to mind?
This is a good topic for me, as I am finding camera app with full support on our phone - XPERIA 1II.
I found this one supporting 4 lenses, and it has free camera app to try with,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.filmic.firstlight&hl=en_US
Another one I am using, this does not support all 3 lenses, but it can take photos with 21:9 ratio,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.magix.camera_mx&hl=en_US
I hope more supported apps can be shared here, as an alternative to stock camera app and google cam.

there are several feature locked, including HDR, and only open to paid user. And HDR option is accessing through long-click on left-top icon. More you can read the introduction from setting.
