Really?? too bad

Man the camera can shoot videos and click images as high as your mobile screen supports it..so limitation is that the scree cant support higher res so the camera functionality is limites and there isnt much u can do about it...however try so apps from play store which may help u click better images
Press that thanx button if helpful !!

Well the camera is what it is you cannot modify it to increase megapixels.But what you can do is edit the media_profiles.xml file to make your camera shoot uncompressed photos with larger quality.

[Q] Panorama Pictures

Hey
In all the reviews i haven`t seen a demo of the Panorama function in the camera app.
Do you know a good video demo?
How is the resolution? Is it megapixel like or something low (e.g. 1800*240)?
I've got one here 1968x576
and another 1808 x 400
smallest dimension pretty much depends on whether I took the panorama phone up or phone on it's side.
there needs to be a hack to make full res panoramas!
Is someone already doing it?

Hi there - bad news for you I'm afraid, there is no panorama function. You can probably download an app for that.

There is.
Camera> Settings> Shooting Mode> Panorama
I believe the resolution is set at 640 x 480 in panoramic view.

Do you use Lg Camera app?

Hey have you tried this app?
https://market.android.com/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCameraPro&feature=search_result
They say is a better camera app than the stock camera app, I have tried on void#forever but I think I couldnt set it correctly because forced closes..and other issues
So any of you use it? What do u think, is better than the default app..? Why
Thanks!
i use the free version and it works fine, i dont know any other cam apps that allows remap of the search button as shutter so this is what i use, currently using it on void #forever with no major issues, tho i think something may have broken zoom (might be CMSettings), but i think its just digital zoom anyway?
Using camera 360 full version... Love the app and its effects.
any other opinion?
well thanks you. holymolys how have u set the app settings?
I prefer stock app

+1 it's one of the best camera apps
I prefer stock app, too.
vignette is also a very nice choice as well. imo the paid version is well worth the money.
the lgcamera app is the best for recording videos. you can change the sound to acc and you get crispy clear sound on your video. and you can change the format of the video too. for photos i use the stock one
camera 360 is the best ... and its HDR effect is awesome..... it removes the dullness of the stock camera..... just try it....

LGCamera is THE best . Have alots of settings . And work video recording at 20fps , not 18 stock .
The default app included in Void #Forever allows you to change the shutter to a key. I prefer it over the apps here =D

It does the trick
Guys i have some question in Camera 360:
1. Whats the Diff between Manual focus and pre focus?
2. And there are an array of settings, under the icon (P in a camera) like stabilizer,2grid,4grid,dizziness etc
Anyone knows abt it
camera 360 has better performance than stock camera but i don't need all it effects.
Has anyone edited the stock camera app to record videos at high fps.??
like 720p with 30fps will be nice Is it possible .??

I think thats impossible xD
I have the three apps for camera: default from void, LgCamera and 360Camera.
The first is good for photos, but usually they are very "black" and I have to increase exposure.
The second one made me a lot of boots and issues... I cant set it correctly
About 360camera...I dont like thoose effects, I only want normal photos xD. And each time I want to use it..I have to click two or three times on some buttons for set the camera working. On the others, you click on camera app and its done, you can make photos since that moment.

No way !!!!!
even though the processor can encode upto 720x480 @ 30fps but the camera hardware outputs max 640x480 @18fps so 640x480 @18fps is maximum ....

[MOD] Camera for J-Team AOSP 4.4.2

Hello everyone, I've found this mod for our camera, it's a modificate camera with Ultrapixel and autofocus on video, so i want it to share with you guys.
Here you have the original thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746611
P.S. : I'm using the last version, that for Jelly Bean 4.2
It's looking good but it's like Camera JB+ nothing too much.
And media_profiles.xml is including 1080P video definition but our device supports 720P max.These values can conflict or not I don't know anyway.
Isn't UltraPixel a hardware feature?

Yes i forgot to mention that has 1080p, but has no problem if you set it to 720p.

Yes it is hardware, but this is like PhisX on nonPhisX videocards, so is has a little boost of image
P.S. And by the way this is for who wanna try or use it. So now depends on you if you like it or no ...

asking for a MOD Camera (4k and 120fps slow motion)

Hi i want ask if someone is able to make a MOD (like lg g2) to recording in 4k and slow motion video 120fps, don'tworry i look that for 5k3m2 samsung sensor it's possible and mt6795 too
our hardware can handle that sound really cool, can u give me some link?
but I think the devs need the kernel source first to make something like that

camera resolution is more 4000x3000 and MTK6795 can recording 4k videos, so no problems

I think image resolution and video resolution is completely different. MTK6795's support is not enough, the camera module need to support it too.
If not, this kind of mod will be very popular, for many device.

Google Camera support Discussion

As this device powered by SD 730 chipset it should support gcam port...
So share gcam mod that supports on our Device
we are waiting

I found Urnyx05's latest version runs well without issues. As well as Arnova but requires to switch the Mod in order to make the slow motion work.
But switching camera lenses is missing in both versions. Also timelapse does not run of 4k mode in Urnyx05.
Is the picture and movie quality noticeably better then stock camera or Open Camera for example?

I noticed a big difference between google camera and the stock camera in terms of landscape views, google camera does a lot better(especially after turning on Lib patcher settings). But for individual objects it seems the stock camera does better in terms of exposure. I think I will depend on google cam just for landscape photos and raw images.
One thing I also found today, when I record with Slow Motion in google cam.. the video will not work.
I haven't found any that adequately support the phone's cameras.
Waiting in vain for astrophotography support with more than 3sec shutter speed.
This device doesn't even have a full PRO camera mode that can adjust shutter speed.
got it on my stock build A71. Photo's are good, but can't do widescreen. Videos are ok, seams quicker on videos, less time "catching up " with what's on the screen . will test outside later, no AR as well , but stable.
we need a port that can use the fullest of the cameras, ex: 64mp, this way we can take raw pictures and have more control

I'm not sure samsung allows full access to the camera for 3rd party apps in the A71. For example I can't get 60 or more fps in any 3rd party app regardless of the resolution, including filmic pro. Only 30 and 24 fps is possible. Real shame...

Yeah I noticed that too, This phone cameras are really good, nothing to complain, just the stock camera app that It's too limited, the phone support camera2api but the stock app doesn't let us tweak our photos in a professional way, there's that "Pro" mode in the app but it's nothing near the real capabilities of Camera2Api with raw photos and so on.
I read in Arnova's article in Google Camera port that there is a module for magisk to enable all the cameras of the phone. Anyone tried it ?
Also I would confirm that there are still issues with the slow motion recorder, the video will be lagging.
I have just checked the last update of Urnyx 7.3.0.018and added the config file of Samsung A71 and it actually works very well! even switching Auxiliary Camera works. But there are two things are still missing:
1-It seems it swithces to the wide camera only (12mp) for both 0.6x and 2x, so 64mp and micro are not added.
2-Slow motion mode still lagging.
I think we should work on making a specific version or configs for A71 which enables the rest of Cameras.
[UPDATE]
Using Arnova Gcam, lastest version. I was able to switch the camera lens between 12mp (wide) and 16mp(main). The other lenses keep crashing the app.
This was done by setting ID Camera 0 and ID Camera 2 in the Mod settings. Maybe by the magisc module it may work, yet my phone is not rooted.

We have a new system update that enables some of the pro mode functions. However, when changing the shutter speed the stock camera always fails...
And some changes when doing an astrophotography shot with the gcam before the update there is less than 3 sec shutter speed. Now i can get 14 sec. But the photo still dark and awful.

What do you consider slow motion, 60 fps or higher?

There are two options 1/4 and 1/8.. both keep lagging after playing the recorder. in 1/4 it is less lagging though. i am not sure if 1/4 is 60 or 30 fps

By editing the options you can export a config file. For example in Arnova's version, there is a mod option which gives you extra optiions that you set and then export a config file, I don't know much but I think for our case we need deeper changes in the port. We might need to edit the port files.

Yes but that's not enough, I personally aim for 64mp camera and if we are able to take RAW images with that will be a nice thing. We have a good camera in this phone but it is diappointing Samsung did not provide Raw Images option in the new update.

For now I have no plans, it is still risky as long as there is little support for the phone in the forum. But I would love to get deeper in helping to improve a better port of GCam for the phone.
Is anyone elses viewfinder laggy? The preview image?
