Cool
It's worth checking the settings and which focus mode it's set to should it happen again...
Happy snapping

[Q] do you have strange clicking sound on the back?

Hello im getting a strange clicking sound on back of the phone, close to camera, im getting it wen i do factory reset and on the first menu it does that, and in Camera app when you change picture to movie and so on... Does any one else experience it?
It`s been reported in a few thread , some camera make the sound and some don't , it might be a different make or firmware version.
It`s just the camera focusing in the camera app, it also happens when you power up the phone, it`s initialising the camera.
Is camera focusing ok, have you tried it with close up object how close can you go.
Just to make sure it`s ok
I also notice that when i tilt device to landscape mode i have to wait about 3-4 sec... i dont think thats normal.

i think its something to do with the ROM. i was getting that sound when i installed Cognition ROM 1.06 ..its irritating ..feels like camera is cracked up.. so i restored back to a rooted stock ROM and the sound has gone..
I did tried that to restore to stock but same...

I used Odin to restore to stock version, i will try to use CM tomorrow.
you need to have a CM backup first
Yes thats the problem i dint mske ik is there are link to cm stock backup?

So i did install stock version of rom, wipe everything but same problem, click click sound in camera, and tilting phone landscape takes about 3-4 sec, i also notice crackling sound when making a call and using full volume on the phones speaker (not loud speaker)

[MOD] HTCCamera JB Plus, Extrim Ver 5.1 |JB Sense ROMs |Android 4.1 |Sense 4.5

This mod is not made by me, I take no credit for it.
I found a working camera mod on the One X forums.
It gives your phone's camera a number of extra features like changing compression settings, better image adjustments and more!
known issues:
- Slow motion camera is currently broken.
- Installing this mod on ATT 1X+ doesnt work (can be fixed by manually replacing the apk in system/app).
For more information, install instructions and download link, visit the origional thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890547
Install this mod at your own risk, I take no responsibility if it broke your phone.
Sincerely,
Dinkelstefan

I tried to take some pictures today, but the picture compression doesnt seem to be doing anything anymore.
Maybe it's the new v5 update or maybe it's because I recently switched to the elegancia ROM.
Can anyone confirm if v5 also has this bug on other ROMs?
Anyhow the other extra settings do still work, like video compressions(which is really noticeable) and the audio compression from videos.
Also the extra steps in the image adjustments settings are noticeable.
If anyone wants me to upload a few videos with diffrent compressions, I'll try to make some time for it.
Break slow motion video capture for me, but the increased image quality heavily outweighs this con, would still like to get it working though, does it work for everyone else?
it also seemed to brake my slo-mo camera.
But I can live without it too. i like the new video quality, and the framerate which is more stable
I tested the photo compression again, and it does seem to be working. May have been a temporary bug yesterday.
I'll try to post some photos later!
Hi, have problem with Panorama function... it doesn't work: take the first shot, ask to move the camera and when I finished (if it doesn't return ad error because I'm too fast) it doesn't make any panorame, only the fist shot !
My configuration is in my sign... I'm doing something wrong ?

I have no idea, my panorama mode seems to be working fine.
My guess is reinstalling the mod, and if that doesnt work you might want to check out the origional mod page.
I've been a bit busy the past few days so the compression comparison pictures will come later.
Has anyone else been able to get this mod working on an AT&T HOX+? It doesn't seem to make any difference when I flash it on my phone.
Thanks.
I installed it on my AT&T one manually replacing the apk in system/app/ and is working so far.

You have to extract the apk from the zip file using a file explorer, copy the camera.apk to system/apps and set permissions to r-w-r-r, then reboot.
Note: Looks like this camera apk drains the battery faster.

I just tried this on a one XL, and i think it worked!
only difference i noticed is video camera has an option labelled "SHARP_5_3"
???
i thought there were setttings to force bitrates, etc..
Great find! Everything seems to work just fine and a bit quicker to launch too!

Neo V Front Camera Problem

I have this problem since i was on ICS until now on JB Roms. Sometimes the front camera is not working and sometimes it works.
sometimes the change camera option on Legacy Camera disappeared meaning front camera is not working and sometime it will appear again.

about this rom: some think like its source, screenshot, features.
I have permanent restarts.
Fingerprint and Camera is really bad.
Otherwise, the system has been quite successful.

Weird, I'm using the rom now since two days and haven't got any restarts yet and haven't noticed anything wrong with the fingerprint.
The only thing I can confirm is the camera quality, for me it's ok as I don't use the camera that much anyway.
No restarts here either. Been using for two days. Works nice. Camera quality is not great but it is fast to take a picture. Fingerprint sensor doesnt work at all for me
Edit: finger print does work just buggy.
does this rom work with the dual sim version ?
Anybody tried flashing clean DRM-fix kernel to fix the camera issue?
Camera does not suck, the reason the photos. Were blurry was because the stock gallery app takes alot of time to render the image. Here's a sample image that I took.
I think this is a good ROM but I won't be using it for now since I don't want to do a full reset of my phone.
UPDATE: video recording does not work.
What if one would use a custom camera app would that help with the quality or do they all require some sort of proprietary components? I'm not talking about SteadyShot...etc, just good overall picture results using 3rd party apps on 3rd party ROMs.
so can someone make a thread about how to install the rom? I am a newbie on fastboot locked phones

Follow this link :
This is for Xperia M but this should also work for Xperia x except that you have to take DRM backup before you unlock bootloader.
Fingerprint worked for me initially.
But after adding a second fingerprint, fingerprint-unlock stopped working. Also deleting fingerprints from the settings does not work anymore. Adding new fingerprints also fails now..
Has anyone made the same observation? Possible fix?

Various Camera App Ports

First of all, this is not my work. You can find the devs behind this in the original thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/themes/mod-updated-6-11-17-google-camera-hdr-t3701190
This are the camera apps I tried and found them to be the ones that had most features working. THESE WERE ALL TESTED ON THE STOCK ROM AND WITHOUT ROOT.
Asus Camera: All picture and recording modes work, but opening the settings page crashes the app. Normal picture and video quality.
HTC Camera: All modes work except for panoramic selfies. The settings page works. Normal picture and video quality.
Meizu Camera: Works flawlessly. Manual mode only has EV Bracket control. Normal picture and video quality.
Nokia Camera: Takes excellent pictures in my opinion. Slowmo video doesn't work and settings page is inaccessible. You're stuck taking 13MP pictures and recording 4K video.
OnePlus Camera: Works flawlessly. HDR doesn't seem to work. Manual mode fully working. The app has a sharpness setting mod available in the settings page. Good picture quality and superior video recording quality in my opinion.

Edit: Forgot to mention the picture and video quality.
I want long exposure, more than 10 sec. Know an app (camera) with this function?
In G5 Plus, some Devs create libs to this...

The only camera app that I know for doing this is FV-5 Camera, but it's kind of a fake long exposure, i think it takes multiple pictures with the longest exposure available for your phone and then combines them. Try it and see if it's of use for you. You can find it in the PlayStore

This happens the first time you open the app, then you have to close it and open it again and it should be working.

That's weird, are you on any custom ROM? I'm using the stock ROM without root. If you are on a custom ROM or on another phone I can't do anything because you're in different conditions

You should make note these are tested on stock in the op.
This is xda - users running stock are probably the minority.

As I said before, these were tested on the Stock ROM and they worked, if you are on a stock ROM there's nothing I can do in order to fix any issue because I'm not the developer of these apps.
