I have recently been using a Moto X Style and enjoyed the camera functions, particularly the touch anywhere on screen to take a shot. I had been searching for a replacement camera on my 6P and found this moded Moto camera.
Please note this is not my work and I am just bringing it to the Nexus 6P communities attention if other users would like to try. All work and credit is thanks to @S0bes. If you use please thanks him in his thread.
This will have working Moto Camera & Gallery. Just go to the source thread HERE, download the 2 apks and install as normal. They will work on unrooted devices.
I haven't fully tested but so far so good for me.
Enjoy
Screen shots
Working great. Thanks!

Your welcome
Awesome!
Can someone share their experience when it comes to the performance of this app vs the stock one?
I really love the new camera but the software/app does seem quite slow especially if you take several HDR photos in a row.
I'd like to know if the Moto X app is any more competent.
Seems faster, if you don't use hdr in Google camera.
But, pictures aren't as good, and are half the size of Google camera.
Stick with Google for best results.
Awesome!!!!

Will this app allow you to take pictures during video?

The comera app installs but the picture is distorted. The gallery app works wonderfully however. It's really a great gallery app!

Same think , distorted image
I get opposite orientation on both the back and front cameras (wide is vertical, vertical is wide), no zoom, and no flash. The Gallery is great, so out goes the Photos app.

I went straight to the camera version that you mentioned and it's working great. Agree with others about the Gallery being very nice!
I had an X Pure for a week and what I miss most is the exposure compensation slider thing. I find the 6P blows out highlights very easily. So if I focus on a dark area to compensate it lightens everything up but in doing so goes overboard and the bright areas are over brightened. It's basically spot metering but doing it to an extreme in my opinion. If the Motorola camera app worked I would be able to dial it down a bit to my liking but it's not available on the version of the camera that works.

Because I don't have that problem. My OB stock gallery was fine...
yup that is a common problem with most android phones, not just ours.
HTC modded their gallery app to overcome this problem.
That's not a problem first of all because this way the images load a lot faster and don't lag because of the 3d effect. The gallery doesn't make them blury just resizes them, who would need it at 5 mpx?also you could always try another gallery app.

very wrong point of view. looking to blurry pictures is sucks. i hardly see small details like faces. we spent hundreds of dollars to this machines. i want best music quality, best picture quality, best gps quality, best call quality, etc. if possible.
btw, quickpic is great. thanks for advice.

Don't believe your camera result by viewing via your phone screen. 5MP jpeg sized into your 800x480 4" screen, of course it will look nice.
professional studio photographer usually using macbook (which is using IPS panel), to direct preview photos instead of their SLR's built in LCD.

He also said viewing at pc better than viewing OB.
I think you will find NO mac book even the pro series has IPS display.
No profesional will use them in studio if choice is given, they are mainly on location solution.
Saying that the p970 screen gives good colour acuracy compared to my CALIBRATED IPS screen. This was the main reason for me buying it as I can't stand the i-junk.
And coming to the point.
Yes the gallery doesn't show properly the pics, but shows them reasonably and provided you do not zoom does the job. My main gripe with yhe galery though is the structure and controls. Too slow and controls are just dumb.
If 100% zoom is required there are plenty of programs in the market that will do it nicely.
QuickPic is indeed fast ,options are easy to sortout. I like functionality instead off visual candy

I simply couldnt stand how poor the picture quality was on my new bionic, so i started exploring ways to make them batter. And im happy to report, I did! I got an application from the market called camera zoom fx, and i promise you, the picture quality is like day and night, so it IS NOT, a hardware issue, its definitely a software issue. you can even change the location it saves the pics to so they save to the camera roll in your gallery just like the stock blur camera app, and you can set it as your default camera. below i have to example pictures i took under low lighting with the flash on. See for yourselves, but since this application has now been rought to everyones attention, i hope we dont have to hear about how ****ty our camera is in all the threads anymore... this is proof the camera isnt bad, the software it uses is... If you have any questions on how to setup the app or anything else, post here or PM me...
A $5 fix
But yes, this is a good app, and definitely proves that it isn't a hardware limitation.

That's kind of why I'm afraid of touching any camera but the blur one...because often times the camcorder doesn't make use of the noise canceling mics, doesn't do HD quality, and doesn't work with the FFC.
So the camcorder doesn't work on this all, either? Wish I would have known this before the refund period ended

Camera360 just blows this stock camera away.
I was in a dark room and got 100% focus on items that the stock camera couldn't and wouldn't touch.
Not very stable but I'd rather have great pictures instead of blurry **** quality. I don't have a doubt that the Bionic will gain some attention of the developer and they'll be able to fix the camera sometimes FC..
I spent the first two weeks on trying to get this camera to take a decent picture in low light and the results were never that great. Took one photo with Camera360 and it was a night and day difference.

I have the original app, camera zoom fx and lgcamera, where lgcamera is the worst. Only on auto focus the camera actually focus (original). Still I get pics that isn't sharp.

I use lgCamera, both free and pro version can provide better pictures with ISO and focus control, but sometimes it cannot save picture properly (resulted in picture without thumbnail)

I tried it on CM11 20140107 version and iodak v9.1 and it takes better pictures regarding the frontal camera, while it's the opposite with the main camera.
It has many settings and options and I would recommend it for its pictures taken from the frontal camera.
O.t.: I would like to know if there's any way to improve the brightness of the frontal camera during videocalls..

16:9 would be nice. Obviously there will be no HDR + which I use mostly... Not sure if they'll do true HDR in the future.
i use the google camera and aosp camera. a better camera is good, since they started using the api2 with it. but it has an issue with focusing at the moment.
Manual Camera by GD Software is best overall camera. Worth every penny. You can find on App Store.

Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
I've read about Manual Camera and how there are a few major issues with it (no front camera access, no videos, no saving of settings etc) but the positives are very good too (fast, good control, RAW). With a few updates it could become the best camera for the Nexus 6.
Reports that Google are updating the camera aren't all that informative and I dont expect the stock Google camera to have dramatic changes in post-processing abilities, speed, options or anything else. They MIGHT add RAW, but then the post-processing of photos through the stock camera (as well as speed) do not compared to other cameras out there (especially on other phones...Note 4, 6+ etc.).
If I were anyone wanting a new camera experience, I'd keep an eye on Manual Camera.
I can't help but feel the RAW thing is a bit of a gimmick on a phone though, and I say that as someone who shoots exclusively in RAW.
The benefits of using RAW are negated by the relative lack of quality in the camera itself (Compared with a DSLR for example) so realistically, I think it's a catchy term that'll appeal to those who aren't a big fan of the stock camera.
