So,
Can anyone tell me if the SGS 2 suffers from crappy panoramic photo resolution like the SGS 1 ?
It's such a nice feature working so well, but capped by resolution....
Cheers!
All camera in the market even dedicated ones doesnt use the full resolution in panorama modes.
Galaxy S2 is the same, low res.
might be best if you want full res to take multiple pis and place them into Photoshop panorama. not the quickest but the best results.
yah, it does indeed save it with poor resolution (go to the camera section of this review, there's a sample panoramic shot). I agree with NIK516, you're better off taking manual pictures and stitching them together in a 3rd party app if you want good quality panoramic shots

Aww Shucks! was really looking forward to some awesome and great mindblowing high res panorama shots. With the processor that Samsung put into this baby, thats not too much to ask, or is it ??
Nice thing about panorama mode (with Samsung Infuse at least) is that it utilizes both the built in compass and accelerometer to align the images correctly. Very nice! I have taken many panoramas by hand and stitched them together with 3rd party software but results are mixed when the camera is hand held.
So I also was bummed to find that this very nice feature in my Infuse is limited to minimum resolution. Hey, I used an app on my old HTC Touch Pro to tweak camera presets and increase resolution. Isn't there something similar for Android??
Maybe someone could make a mod on that feature ?
So it will have a better resolution.. that would be great!
PUSHING!
I really would want to have this feature modded in one of the camera.apk's
PLEASE!
I remember back in my Windows Mobile days there was a registry edit that would allow each image of the panoramic capture to be set to full resolution. Is there a tweak for Android?
Yeah that's the 2nd thing lacking from the SGS2 for me, hd panorama mode and notification led
i see panorama on sgs2 not bad..
Please, someone do something to increase resolution.
It's useless at 400 vertical pixels. The mid-end Samsung Wave have a much higher res for panoramic photos. It's an absurd shame on Galaxy S2!!
Here is a comparision (Wave S8500, Galaxy S2):
Wave (800 pixels):
SG2 (400 pixels):
There is no mod or hack to change the miserable 400 pixels resolution?

Great feature but the resolution is TERRIBLE.

Someone is working to find a solution to this problem and increase Panoramic photo shots?
LPQ ICS 4.0.3 from official KIES update and Panorama shoot still sucks with a ridiculous 368 vertical pixels resolution!!!
They even reduced it from 400 to 368!!! Oh my god...
And still won't save changed prefs on camera quit.
Still nothing to increase ridiculous vertical resolution after almost 1 year? OMG
Apparently still nothing...
hopping for a better resolution
where are the gurus on this? I wish I could learn how to do a MOD.
Just waiting for a change on the resolution, thanks.
Also noticed this on my gs2, but what makes me wonder the most, is that on my dumped old Samsung wave, on bada, I could make high res panorama pics, while this cam and processor is better.. So all we need is a developer who knows bada and Android to make a mod I hope

Why the photo resolution in Panoramic shoot mode is just 400 pixel?
It must be a mistake in some .ini file because even Samsung Wave S8500 with a less powerful HW can shoot panoramic photos at 800 pixels...
It's a shame Samsung haven't fixed this problem yet (official KI4, A2.3.5).

I absolutely agree. That was a disappointment to me when I realized the low res of the panoramic picture. I'm hoping that ICS will bring high res panorama picture taking by standard though..
Take a couple of high-res, max-res "normal" pics and stitch them together with PanoStudio (PC App).
You'll NEVER get panos like you get that way with any built-in panoramic feature, even the panofeature of my "real" photocam suxx compared to stitching normal shots with PanoStudio - not the mention the resolution you're gonna end up with
Just saying
Camera Panorama Issue - SGSII
Eventually Pano mode sucks in all modes in SGSII, when i compare pano's with Samsung jet the quality is far much better.
Although the picture seems good on the phone, it not the case when you look at it on a pc full view!
Attached there's a re-sized sample. You could clearly notice grains.
Don't know whether you have the same issue.
Out of curiosity I just tried the pano-mode of the S2.
OMG, what a bad quallity
Original Samsung software is excellent: is fast and attached pics are near perfection, and saved in standard JPG format.
There are no good alternatives on the Android Market (= they are slow, bad quality, they save pics in custom panoramic format...), nor I want to use an alternative external app since the option is already built-in!
The only problem with GS2 is they forgot to change the 400pixel resolution (probably for low-end Android phones). It's actually UNUSABLE at 400 pixels. A real pity because for example Samsung Wave S8500 can do much better and uses the same internal software (I guess), but is set to 800 vertical pixels!
Here is a quick comparision between GS2 unusable 400 pixel resolution, and Wave S8500:
Wave:
GS2:
As you can see the poor 400pixel version of Gs2 is unusable. A picture quality worth a 6 years ago cheap phone (below the old VGA standards), without reason.
What really surprises me is that NOBODY's done something to fix this problem. They are all hardly working in customizing fancy video effects and custom roms but nobody ever took a look to the Panoramic camera shoot and released at least a mod-fix for this phone....
We have a powerful and very nice option we can't actually use, because of a Samsung mistake.
The difference is alot !!
I always use the stock camera app for best results
So many updates recently and still haven't been solved...I hope that one day we can notice that it has been fixed because using panorama at this stage is totally useless...
Still the same after more than 1 year?????
Nobody in Samsung even noticed this?
Do we look like Samsung to you ? Complain to/ask them. Nothing will be done about it if you moan about it in a thread on XDA. If you really want something done about it, go straight to the source.
Isn't there a mod fix for this at least?
By the way, FYI, reporting something in a forum may wake up also other users and move much more than a useless single mail to the Samsung support center that will reply with the usual form "Thank you for your interest... bla bla" and stop.
Forums exist also to discuss about problems and bugs. Oh, and I've reported to Samsung the problem with poor Panoramic shoot resolution at least 12 times already...
I've noticed that the pictures in lower-than-normal light look a bit grainy. I've noticed that even at 8mp (3264x1840), the file size is about 1 mb. On every other camera I've used, 8mp resolution was about 4-6 mb. Is there any way to reduce the amount of compression applied to images? Can't imagine they would lock us into such a high compression rate without the ability to adjust it.
Try flashing xboarders amazing quick sense or ARHD custom roms. I'm not sure but I think most custom sense roms have zero compression in the camera app.

I used Root Explorer (Market) and altered the "media_profiles.xml" file to "100" for all compression levels for the camera. I also set the ImageDecoding Memcap to 80000000 instead of 20000000. Now my shots are all 5mb and above. HOWEVER...the problem appears to be the bit depth which is 8 and the ppi resolution is only 72. This is extremely poor for any camera. Unless the ppi resolution can be changed within the camera, I am of the opinion that there is no hope! It is a very tiny sensor compared to even a point and shoot camera so perhaps that is the best we can expect. I compared before and after picture quality and even at 5mb and up compared to 1-2mb, the exact same pictures still look the same!

Interesting. I did compare shots and the larger files didnt seem noticeably different.
I dont know enough about camera but that bit depth is poor for anything. Im assuming this was a tricky way to get the zero shutter lag going ?
Maybe a dev can take a gander and share his/her thoughts.

Yes the bit depth is horrendous! It is usually created by the hardware engine for the sensor so if that is all HTC put into it, I doubt any dev can make it better with a software patch if it truly is in the hardware. I tried my settings on all camera modes and I get around 5-7mpx for everything except the Clear Shot HDR. That locks the camera app up! I've been using Pro HDR camera anyway because it allows you to save up to an 8mpx image at full resolution. I have it in the same folder as the camera and camcorder (I love folders!) so I just select that when I want to shoot an HDR. I use my Panasonic G2 for normal shots and video anyway. The phone camera is just in case I don't have my big camera with me. I don't think HTC should even try to brag about how great this camera is. At 8mpx and 72ppi, it is a joke!

A different take on this: Compression applied after capturing a low-light image probably isn't what is causing the low image quality & smaller filesize you're seeing. Image quality in all digital cameras drops when light levels fall below the sensor+lens ability to capture enough light for a good picture, and you get the equivalent of using high-ISO film: a grainy image with less detail to write to the file. The Amaze is still better than most phone cams, but will still not do as well as a larger point & shoot camera in low light -- regardless of compression.
That said . . . nope, I haven't 'gone deep' into how well compression itself works on the Amaze.

Holy crap you waited for two years before posting THIS!!!!
lol j.k
Personally its not about having PnS quality as lens size simply wont allow it. But if picture quality can be better...then I want to know. Particularly what the trade off is and why.
I remain curious as to how PQ compares to iPhone4 and GalaxyNexus. Such a pain to find comparison pics.
Does anyone have any tips/tricks for how to take better photos with this phone? Like a 3rd party Camera app, or settings or something?

focus first. then take pic. especially when using the led. the gs2 has the best camera of any that were released prior to the hox. it doesnt really need anything else.
if you must have a new camera app... head down to the themes and apps section and do a search for 'camera'.
ICS camera has better clarity than Stock Sammy one
IMO, the stock camera app or sammy roms is not as good as the ICS default camera app that comes with AOSP/AOKP roms. I feel that the touch to focus(in generall any kind of focus) works better on ICS one.
Apart from that clarity of pics and videos just depends on the skill of the person shooting and the sgs2 camera h/w is in manner inferior to any smartphone camera's out there.
So, I'd suggest that if you are on stock firmware or using a samsung based rom , then try app called "Camera ICS" and see if you feel the difference.. especially in the details captured in the shot.
Hope this helps !!!

They still compare phone cameras to the Galaxy S II camera today, a year later. Its a great camera, one of the best still.
I agree to focus first, frame the picture, focus, and snap it. Let the phone do everything else.
For video, I use 720p instead of 1080p. For whatever reason the 1080p mode zooms in, and you can't zoom out. I also use the wide-6 option of still shots instead of 8. Most of the time I am viewing my shots its on my phone, or over MHL on my TV, and the wide-6 are full frame instead of 4:3.
I like the options and features of the Samsung camera vs the AOPK/CM9 camera, but have taken the same quality shots in both. Anytime I try an HDR camera or other apps, it just takes longer to shoot pictures and I don't see any better quality.
The only issue I occasionally have is foggy shots. If I get fingerprints or other grime on the camera lens it makes the shots foggy (shocker, I know). But, just wiping that clean on my shirt gives me back the crisp vibrant shots I am used to. I also occasionally get the whirring sound, and have since October. That goes away once I focus anyway.

yeppers. i would say you are spot on. i should have added that i am on aokp and using the ics camera. so the focus first is even more important i think. and thats because it is capable of lowering the intensity of the led. but it will not lower the led if you just take the pic without focusing. the sammy apk may do the same. its been a while since i have used it.
i also like the samsung apk all around a little better. the layout is hands down better than the one on aokp. i hate it that aokp doesnt fill the screen when scanning through pics. and just like you... i have found that 720p works best.
In all honesty, get camera zoom fx and enjoy. Supports button mapping, which was an important feat. for me, else works like a champ.
Is there any way to get the ICS camera apk? I'm running task650 and team go **** yourself's 7.3.2012 AOKP rom. I think in an earlier release there was a camera app with a lot more features, but now it's pretty bare bones. A lot of my shots come out blurry.

I can get that type of quality when I'm outdoors. It's the inside shots that don't come out too sharp. I thought that I saw that ICS was going to have better camera software like the iphone's. Not saying I want to get an iphone again, but my wife's takes really good pictures.
No problem with indoor either.
The Galaxy Nexus has the zero shutter lag, but that is a hardware thing not software. The Galaxy Nexus camera is terrible compared to the Galaxy S II.
The included camera with AOSP based ROMs does have less options, but I don't see any difference in the quality of pictures regardless of what version of android or AOSP/Samsung based ROMs.
Do you have an example picture with issues?

Thanks for the response. Most of the pictures that don't turn out are due to my daughter moving, so it becomes blurry. It doesn't seem like she's moving so quickly that it would make a difference. I remember my photos being better quality before, so I was thinking it was a software issue. Do you use your flash on auto? Most of the time mine is off.
BTW - cute little girl you've got there.
Thanks, looks like you got yourself a nice little bundle of cute too.
I just use auto flash and wb. The only thing I change is size. Sometimes I get a little motion blur (see attached), but overall my wife is jealous of my camera vs her iPhone 4.
I just use my phone for those spontaneous moments of fun. We have a point and shoot and a DSLR for expected moments (as much as you can with little ones).
I will say that I noticed quick the AOKP camera does not show you the actual picture preview, but the samsung camera does. The preview I get is always blurry, until I go into the gallery. At first it felt like all my shots were bad, placebo effect I guess.
If you do find a camera in the market that works better let me know. I just have found they don't work as fast as the included one, and they didn't seem to be any different on quality.

I think I need to put the auto flash on from now on. The same thing will happen on our regular camera if there's not enough light, but it will warn you when taking the picture. I've tried other camera programs and they didn't impress me too much.
Thanks for your help.
Sorry, I seem to bombard you guys with questions (and seem to answer them myself ), but that's not the problem. The problem is with my HTC One X+ not taking 8MP camera (and apps not recognizing the camera as 8MP)... including the main stock HTC One X+ camera app... or so it seems. I've tried Camera Zoom FX which recognizes up to 8MP and it went up to 5.1MP for my camera... a different app went up to 6MP, but mostly it's 5MP (as the best quality for my camera).
All my pictures that I take are very noisy and not clear (file size anywhere between .6 - 1.2MB)... that is not good. Resolution is 3264x1840 (or vise versa if it's vertical).
I don't know what the deal might be... is the camera failing on me (Camera on my previous Samsung Galaxy S3 failed completely... wouldn't open at all)... don't know how the cameras seem to die on me... I do take a lot of pictures, but most of the pictures I've taken are bad quality and very noisy... really really really disappointing since I value the camera a lot... I chose this phone for the 8MP (was afraid of the 4 UltraPixels of One so I went with regular 8MP)... now I regret, seen I'm getting a terrible quality 5MP pictures. (I've seen 5MP phone cameras take MUCH better photos then my "8MP" camera).

What rom are you on?
Also the noisy pictures thing may be caused by the fact that the back cover of the camera has a coating that gets scratched really easy and you should remove it, search in the Q&A forum on how to.
The "8MP camera bug" is one of many annoying bugs introduced in the only HOX+ update. The problem is that HTC messed one file in which there are available photo size options. That way NO external camera app will use full 8 MP. Only 5, 5.1 or 6 (square) MP. However, the stock camera should take full 8MP pictures, I can prove it. Check camera options.
This bug can be fixed if you have root access. I found a tutorial about this here at XDA, but after many, many google searches and I have no idea where it is now.
Install zero compression mod, lyaporta camera mod, 8mp photos are in 4:3, pretty sure widescreen or 16:9 option is only 6mp, as it crops the top and bottom instead of making the sides wider.

Is this the zero compression mod? If so, how do I flash it? Just put it on my sdcard and install it VIA TWRP? Also, how could I make a back-up of the current camera library? (I use sense 5 and the stock one that they offer there is for sense 4... or does it not matter and I can update it back to be compatible with sense 5?)
Thanks for your awesome help so far!!! I'm pretty new at this.
Zero Compression
Well, I tried that zero compression mod thing that I linked above and it does make the file size larger (also changed crop to regular and resolution to 4:3) and the image seems to be a little bit better but if you zoom in it's so noisy, it's just bad...

Flash the zero compression driver that disables the noise reduction rubbish that HTC implements (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2339226). Camera Mod is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2221815, it`s in the modpack , you can install without other mods, it improves image quality by a good deal. How old is the phone, my phone started developing hazy, blurry photos that had a ridiculous amount of bloom in any lit area, I noticed how scratched the lens was, the fix, simply put a small dab of tooth paste and a drop of water on a microfibre cloth and rub the lens in a circular motion for about 5 mins, don`t use too much water cause it can get under the lens, now my lens is as good as new and the camera takes some darn nice photos.

The lyaporta camera mod breaks my phone... it's just stuck in the start-up HTC One logo screen and that's it... I restored to the backup I did before installing the mod, but it doesn't seem to work... maybe I just have to wait a little longer... I waited for like 1 minute on the logo screen before going back to the backup...
Hello,
As the title says i need help choosing (or getting) the best camera mod available up to date.
The device is a rooted Note 4 running on Omega Rom android version 4.4.4 (yes and i`m not changing it!)
It has the default Samsung camera app.. the image quality is really awful, horrible compared to my 200 year old iphone5..
I am using the optimum camera settings HDR and 16mp and the daylight photos are OK-ish.. but once the sun goes down i no longer have a camera, meaning at night the camera is just awful!
Also the colors seem quite saturated/yellowish generally the photos quality is really pour, i do believe that with a mod it can be better..
What i need is a camera mod that will shoot photos as close to the actual colors as possible, best image quality is what i`m after.
I dont really care about video recording honestly i`m fine with 1024 on video, all im after is image quality!
EDIT:
The build in samsung camera app/mod lacks many camera app features that my grandma`s phone has, im talking about features like macro,focus,image quality settings and more!
There must be a mod out there that enables those features?
Please help me get a better image quality the summer already passed
Thank you!
You won't get any better it's to do with the cameras hardware not software. Have you tried increasing the exposure and turn the ISO up to something like 800 or whatever the highest ISO value is? You will still get grainy/noisy images with a higher ISO but should be a brighter image. Iphones while I'll never go back to one, have got pretty good cameras for low light situations but if you really want to take pictures in low light then you should consider buying the S7, S7 edge or the note 7 when it's released.
Thanks for the info
I did expect more from the camera of the note 4..
The max ISO is 800 but the best image quality in my opinion is with the lowest ISO setting which is 100.
Overall I'm super happy with the phone in general.. the note 7 did not convince me im not gona commit to swap it, meaning that I'm gonna stock around with no camera for a while
Hardware wise the camera is decent, I'm sure that with an open mod it should take better shots, at least in day light..
Thanks for the reply ☺
