I understand we have one or two different threads here, but I think this justified a new one, since as I'm sure all of you are aware, none of the Skype video calling apks have the rear facing camera truly working (there was one I tried that initialized the video, but did not transmit it to the other party).
I can CONFIRM that this apk by droidrx from the Android Development and Hacking forum that the com.skype.raider-2cam.zip works FLAWLESSLY for both the front AND rear facing cameras on the Evo 3D. I just completed a call with another Skype account on my laptop and audio both ways, and video works beautifully, in addition to switching the camers on/off and switching them back/fourth.
As always, uninstall any other versions of Skype first before installing this one. Make sure you thank droidrx for his work!
Here is the thread where the link and QR code are from! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153285
Link to the apk is here

how do you get skype to not keep trying to reconnect and put the damn symbol in the taskbar when you dont have a data connection?

Yup! Like I said. Works FLAWLESSLY. Skype should hire this guy to work on compatibility with devices.

Are you asking if you want it to auto-connect when you have a data connection, and not when you don't? I'm sure the symbol thing you could probably find an app in the Market for.
I just keep it on. It'll show a Checkmark when you're online and connected, and an X when you're not.
Not sure if that's what you were exactly asking...you can probably go into Skype settings and mess with the options (notifications, go offline..etc.) and see if any of that helps. Just from the main Skype screen on your phone, tap menu and settings.
Any anyone besides the original poster verify this package?
its skype i'll verify that much. havent tested video yet.
but its still doing "reconnecting" with the symbol in the taskbar. my data is off. i unchecked sign in automatically. and i unchecked skype status. and i set it to go offline after 15 minutes.
but i still see the damn spinning icon there.
FYI, the linked post appears to be credible and have some users. I installed it on my 3VO and it launches ok, alas nobody is up at 1am for me to call so I can't test it at the moment.
Thanks for the link dzap!

another developer that is working on just GB devices has files posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1148708
looks like both droidrx and theos0o are sharing their stuff. I don't know if the droidrx version that includes froyo support has any disadvantages, so i'm going to try theos0o version. i currently have working skype video with front cam only, and my video freezes after about 10 seconds. going to try the theos0o version and see how that goes. i'll post back
EDIT: theos0o's version works, I didn't get the rear camera working but will now attempt to tweak the settings. I get front camera freezing still, turning my video on then off fixes it, but annoying. will see if I can resolve and post back (anyone run into this or fix it yet? does droidrx version freeze after 10 seconds?)
EDIT 2: theos0o version fixed front camera freeze by changing resolution (use "force 320x240"). rear cam works by using resolution "force 320x240". sign in automatically setting works (don't need to enter password).
EDIT 3: there is one remaining bug I have. no fix for it, and I suspect it's going to exist no matter which version you use. i've detailed it here, hopefully they find a fix.
Edit 4: see my post here for fully working version.

hey everyone
i have noticed that my i9100G's proximity sensor truns on (red) every time
i trun the screen on, and when it turns off the proximity sensors turns off too!
so... are you facing the same problem or it is just me?
thanks in advance .
come on people, its not that hard question...
Yes , it happens on mine too. Dont think its a problem though.
The sensor works as long as you don't press the power button.

thanks, are you facing any probelms with youtube application and the browser when you whach an hd video?
I have I9100G. After I saw this topic, I realized that my Proximity sensor was ON even while normal operation (the red ligh was lit dim, not off), but it was not doing any function. Then I called a number, and it started functioning (turning screen off when near etc). Then, it went off and started functioning like it should, i.e. turn on ONLY when call is made and turn OFF all other time.
So, to fix this, just call to any number (toll free to avoid charges), the proximity sensor resumes normal operation. Its working fine on my phone now.
when you call someone it will turn off for a short time, then it will light up agine

sad to hear that, anyway all of the "G" users are facing probelms with the browser, which lags like hell when you open an hd or full hd videos and if you have adobe flash 11, every time you open a page with flash content, your browser will shut it self, in addition to that, there is a bug with the youtube app, every time you move the loading bar backward, the video will reload the video from the place you moved the bar backward to,
hope you can replace it

I am having the same problem with my i9100G. Comparing with the other phones (Infuse, I9100, Arc), their proximity sensor just turn on when make a call
Install fixed redlight.apk. I installed it and the proximity sensor turns off automatically once phone is unlocked. No need to turn it off manually by calling someone and ending the call.
Not sure if you guys have seen this yet but it works on our CDMA. Image quality much improved. Love the additional options and 3D picture capture works. I couldnt find another thread so if this is double post I apologize. Apk also available for non rooted phone it looks like.

Igor has done great work with this port. Dont forget to thank him if you found this useful.
EDIT: Panoramic and burst doesnt seem to work but the other options are a welcome addition.
Update
0.11
1. Codec H264 is automaticaly used for 3D video recording.
2. Flash is always turned ON if flash mode is "ON" (when taking picture). It is very useful to see what you are shooting when taking picture in low light conditions.
0.10
1. Added option to set 50HZ/60HZ antibanding.
2. Removed video format selection. It doesn't needed! 3GP and MP4 are just a containers. Video encoding bitrate is the only important to reduce file size.
3. Added codec selection (H264/MPEG)
4. Enabled video encoding bitrate selection for 720p and 540p
5. Added more bitrate choices.
0.09 - removed because it always saves video into 3GP container
1. 3GP/MP4 video format selection
2. Added Camera version to Tutorial title
3. Universal flash script rewritten
4. Added autobuilder to sources in git

On the thread it does say not tested so I'm not sure what the results would be and also says if you have FC issue then try the 1920x1080 version. Have you tried the other version? Unless those apk are GSM specific then that could be why they arent working on your device.
Edit: Looking at this post it seems there are libraries that also need to be modified so I think this may only work for rooted phones.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19321859&postcount=244
I just tested this out, everything seems to work correctly on the most recent version of 1920, except fastburst of course, but just read the post and you'll see.
As for 2048 it does indeed force close after taking a 3D picture.
Overall this does work well, i'm not sure if I like it better than stock though as of now.
Just tried this out on non rooted phone .2048 apk installs a seperate camera app .not sure what does and doesn't work coz I'm the type to just open the camera and take a snap...gotta say clarity is much better and also the picture from the front facing camera is also a lot better

Thats a good question but even if it did and you dont happen to like that rom it prob wont matter. I rather have it as flashable so I can flash it on any rom I choose. Just my opinion
Once zsl drivers make it over, I'm pretty sure every ROM is going to include this camera.
you guys may want to go over here. its listed in the GSM but it works also for the CDMA.
[MOD] HTCCamera from Amaze 4G(rooted stock rom ready,2048x1152/1920x1080 in 3D), v0.8
i have it on my 3d...but they are still trying to work out some of the bugs.
i cant wait till its working 100%
Two problems:
-The highest video quality that I have to select is 1280*720 (even though I downloaded the 2048*1152 and have read people getting 1080p recording)
-When I press the button to switch to the front camera, it still does my back camera, but the picture is upside down.
Edit: Ok, for problem one I found that 1080p is only available for 3d recording. I just wish I could adjust the bps for 720 recording like you can for 1080p.
Problem 2 persists.

I tested it and it really makes the G6 camera live up to its true potential! Cant believe the difference http://imgur.com/a/blrWe
For anyone that also uses Norton, there is a conflict and Norton will flag it as maleware. You can't "trust" it and you can't dismiss the Norton notification.
Everything works for me except photosphere. It will capture a photosphere image, but it's distorted and stretched.
Despite that, the HDR+ function works so good, and I think it looks better than the LG camera.
I've tested it, result: both are good, but LG more real and google HDR+ more punchy. However I fiind LG calera better...
No matter how much 3rd party camera offers, only stock camera takes better picture.
thanks for this post! wouldn't know otherwise, i did test it and its pretty awesome!
Especially more realistic colours in low light if you can keep the camera stable. Not to be used for moving subjects.
In Daylight, the G6's camera is great by itself so i probably won't use it in those scenarios.

Real life looked very close to how the Google camera processed the image.
@dkimmortal that comparison is great! Can't believe how Google app made a difference there!
Here's my quick comparison also, difference is night and day! What's wrong with LG?
Testing it so far seems its shocking in low light? Images are so noisy, poor colour.
Sounds great, but can't even get it to install on my G6 (european).
I Download the apk, click ist to install, but just can't hit the "install" button, just "cancel".
Of course "other sources" are allowed in settings. Does anyone have any ideas?

This camera is Google's (pixel camera to be more precise) and the phone it was made for has only one lens, so I dont think there is a way to get the other lens working (unfortunately)

You may have some app that have screen overlay on (draw over other apps) like screen rotation or f.lux. Find it and disable that permission when install this.
Tried it today in low light and its a significant improvement. Not sure about daylight so will look at that as well. Obvioulsy only works with one lens.
Mine keeps crashing sometimes when I take a photo - I think it might be due to setting the resolution at 16:9 (9.7mp) resolution. Missed a great shot as well!

Thanks. Is difficult to change it?
Enviado desde mi VTR-L29 mediante Tapatalk
Thank you for the link!
I was afraid I would buy the whole p10 plus for upgrading camera on my p10!
Can you confirm if the Exif data or the info from taken photos is f/1.8 or f/2.2?
Does the phone recognize the new sensor as f1.8?
im also interested in this.. ordered the camera module just to give it a go
Are there any news about this mod? Is it full functional?
Would be nice if you could post the full jpeg with EXIF. But here's my take on this. The LENS on the P10 Plus is still F1.8 and therefore allows more light to hit the sensor and enable to use lower ISO in low light, thus getting cleaner pictures. It doesn't really matter if it's recognized by the software as a new module. That must have been the thinking of Huawei when they designed it....if the only change the lens brightness, they don't need to change anything on the software, sensors or the module itself.
I'm ordering right now. It's cheap and the P10 is super easy to take apart.
I'm also very interested. Because when I compare the images of the parts (p10 plus vs normal camera module) the lenses do look the same. To get the higher f-rating the 'holes' should be a big bigger (if it is not something in the sensor or software) else with a 'patch' the current module would be able to run f1.8 as well.
So, as others requested, could you publish the exif data or a screenshot of what the camera-app tells you about the f-rating?
Since I'm leaning towards a mi6 because of the f-rating, this mod could get me into the huawei camp
I still havent received mine camera module, will post exif data when i get it
Well, this was horrible. Now my camera wont work anymore. Not with the new sensor or the old.
This is what i did.
Turned off the phone
Replaced camera sensor, camera application force closes. Like there is no camera. No error msg or nothing.
Changes back to the old camera module, now that doesnt work either. Does a factory reset.
After some fiddling the camera works again, tries the new camera module one more time, thinking Maybe bad connection. Factory reset again.
Now it wont work at all, Even snapchat wont open up because off missing camera?
Suggestions?

That is very frustrating.. maybe the new module was defective? I would advice to not use the new module again. Try cleaning all the contacts of the original module with some rubbing alcohol and such, maybe some bad connections?
As a last resort maybe disconnecting the battery and leave it for a while before reconnecting again would help reset some memory? Would be nice if the TS would reply with some details about the modification :crying:

Just wipe data of the camera app and it will be fine.
Hey guys and girls.
i had an nexus 5x before i switched to the Samsung Gang (A520F)
Loved my nexus , but they used weak chips (my Nexus just died and thats when i first heard of this issue)
What i most liked bout the Nexus 5x, was its camera. HDR+ shot were really fantastic, popping colors and were awesome to look at.
lot of people liked this camera and its software, so this guy is porting the camera app to other devices.
https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-customization-raw-support/?nocache=1
really awesome work. tried it few times before, but the current release is working on the Samsung A520F.
i was just glad to be able to take photos, and compared it to the standard camera app, it's way better!!
much sharper , and i did not experiment much till now, there are plenty of option to around with.. so please give it a try and share your settings.
first HDR+ that worked for me with this settings:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Give it a try !
anyone who knows a fix for the front camera?
Didnt try the front cam, didnt realize its not working.
Dont know if the settings change anything. Iam afraid the settings dont work, hdr is not processed.
Cant tell a difference between the different settings when comparing images..
There is a problem in front camera ...when i switch to front camera i have a force stop
When i switch to front camera i have a FC, please help.Thank you.
Well yes, also FC when switch to front cam.
Other settings also seem to have no influence on the image. Sadly no processing.
Hope it will work somehow.

Try one of the updated versions from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/how-to/google-camera-hdr-b-s-g-port-version-t3659879/page22
For me it's working - at least partially. Front cam and auto HDR are broken.
One version, the installer tells me it's not suitable for my phone - an A3. It was an apk file.
Hello @SchWeinSAuG, could you please upload your APK file or tell which version you used? I've tried a few and I can't get HDR+ to work, even when using your settings.
It works but with 2 problems. The flash is out of sync and the pics are too dark compared with the normal app.
As someone said earlier, the photos don't look that different from the stock camera. I tried many parameters and got basically the same results.
Could someone tell me if the Google Camera app runs on your A5 2017 and what is the version that you use?
I downloaded an application some time ago but the HDR + did not work, nor have I obtained better results than with the stock camera.
I would like someone to tell me if the HDR + works and if the photos are better than with the stock, and also what is the configuration to do in the settings for it.
Also, I would like to know if there's any option to activate the Digital Stabilizer for the videos in the app.
If there is one that works well, put the download link, please!
Thank you very much!

hello, I use the port found in the following subject, With v4 version :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/themes/google-camera-portrait-mode-t3736859/page44
I think the photos are nicer compared to the stock version, the only problem is that I was not successful to operate the portrait mode, so I use the lens blur.
Below the configuration that I use and some photo
Bye
