The rom may have some bugs. Ask the rom developer whether the solution has been provided or else ask him to make one.
There are many camera apps on google play but afaik none of the apps behaves/works like stock camera app.
You can try replacing the camera application of your custom rom with the stock rom. You can get more information on Google as well as XDA.
If still it doesn't solve, flash stock rom and use.

Where is Stock Camera App?

I don't own your device.
If you have taken backup of your /system of your stock rom, you can get the apk file. If it has odex file, make sure you deodex it before replacing the file. Read tutorial at Google and XDA on how to deodex the apk.
Orelse if you have not got stock backup, browse through your device's specific forum on xda and there you get that stock rom or any other custom which is stable and bug free camera app. Download the best and use it.
P.S. There is a dedicated thanks button. You can use it to thank anyone on xda.

the question is did u make a nandroid back up before u flashed it. If not u can back up ur apps with titanium back up and then wipe cache and flash ur rom again then restore ur backed up apps with titanium back up.
note: that u shouldn't back up system apps or data specially of course the cam causing the troubles.

[Q][Player 4.0] Remics CM9

I have a few questions that I was wondering about. *I'm a noob at everything beyond rooting and flashing ROMs, so please don't kill me. Also, I can't post on dev forums, so please don't direct me to a dev forum to ask for help.*
A. Does anyone know if it would be safe to use the CameraFirmware.apk file from the IcyFusion ROM to make the camera functional in Remics UX for SGP 4? It is the same firmware even between ROMs because the physical camera hasn't changed, right?
B. How can I make the physical home button work? Is that involved or are there files I can just copy for a quick fix?
C. I noticed that gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip force closes even after I have flashed it. Which version is recommended for the Remics UX SGP 4 ROM?
Thanks in advance to any help you provide, and tell me if there is somewhere more appropriate for me to post this.
EDIT: I realise now that the United States version has a softkey home button, which is what I intended to say by physical home button.

I don't have a SGP4, so I can't answer all of your questions, but I do know that CameraFirmware.apk has nothing to do with taking pictures. It's just a way to update the.... Camera Firmware.

Well... That list is inaccurate. If you do install it, all it provides is an activity to dump or update the camera firmware. You can verify that on any launcher that allows you to add shortcuts to arbitrary activities. If it is needed for any camera app, it is only on stock roms. For example, the SGP5 has that apk on stock, but the camera works in cm10 without it

Alright. Thanks for that clarification. Do you have any idea where to get started on the other problems, even if it isn't device specific?

Getting buttons to work is a kernel configuration issue. For GAPPS, make sure /system has enough space, and try flashing other ICS packages.

Alright... any idea which kernel files to configure?

That is, you must recompile the kernel with PALLADIO_USA enabled or disabled depending on if you have a usa model.

possible to use official stock camera app ?

im currently using cm 10.1 on p769 (tmobile) but i find that the generic camera app is lacking quality ...is it possible to use the stock jelly bean camera app that originally came with the phone ?/ would i need libs from original rom ? or woould the apk be enough ....and if some one would be so kind as to back it up for me and upload it ,,,i dont feel like flashing stock just to get the apk and flash back to cm 10
no one ???
It would do no good. CM10 is probably deodexed, right? So it would be a pain. That's just my opine.
Sent from my LG-P769(20F) using the xda-developers app. If I helped you please hit the "thanks" button.
Why would you want to? I mean, technically, you can do anything with a rooted droid. But I find CyanogenMod superior in every way, espescially when it comes to updates. Besides, the stock camera app wouldn't blend as well with CM's UI. That's just my two cents. If you want to get that camera app running just ask me though and I can try to help you get a deodexed version I guess.
Hello there. I to would like to use stock camera on CM 10.1 or 10.2
My point is that on stock camera app videos recorded in worse light are smooth. On CM they are cutting.
CM is deodexed, and stock is not. If i'm right. But there are deodexed and modified ROMs (Jellycream)
If I install CM and delete/uninstal app camera/gallery and put in its place stock apps would it be working ?
What files do I need ?
Thanks for any help.
P.S. Sorry for my english
If someone were to port the stock l9 camera to cm10, would we have 1080p recording?
Ok. I have CameraApp.apk from stock rom. Could someone tell me where in CM 10.2 system files hides camera app co i could exchenge it with stock ?

CM camera code are in Gallery.apk, I think you don't want to touch it. Just add CameraApp.apk to /system/app/ if you want to try to port it. But I and other people have tried that before but no success. You also need lge-res.apk in /system/framework/ to run LG camera. Maybe I miss some lib the last time I tried.
Thanks, i'll try it and let you know.
Other question - mayby there is a way to, or modified camera app, or other camera app where video recording doestn lag like on CM cam. On stock video recordings are smooth in any light condition, but on CM its terrible.

[REQUEST] Stock Honor 7 PLK01 Camera App

Hey, I am using CM 13 Rom and since all camera apps are such a trash I would like to use stock Honor 7 camera. Can you please someone post the APK file if it is possible? Thanks
Edit: after some research I found out that camera app need some pther libraries. Does anyome of you have a flashable zip? + Does anyone has compass app (same as camera - flashable zip)?
Stock camera app is yet to be ported. Don't know about compass though.
I think this one will work :
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ecxfax...era_Honor7.zip
I took it from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7/development/cm-style-wbt-t3524522
I noticed only a problem with this zip file where in super night mode, u will not have other choices of effects. If u still remember, the stock camera will let you choose from a few effects in super night mode. Try to flash the zip file and tell me here back if u found the option im talking about

Hi
I tried that and it flashed fine but I don't see the camera available anywhere in the phone, I only see the Google one
Thanks
This is for stock rom. It won't work on cm.

The app name is Camera. Have u tried to search the app in the app drawer ? How bout Apps in settings? If the zip file is flashed n installed correctly then it should appear in apps in settings. Btw, the rom u used is based on which kernel version? Like B380 or B330. Maybe the zip file i provided is for different version

Yeah, perhaps. Btw, i flashed mine on cm style by wbt. If im not mistaken, cm roms have a few minor problems like camera and wifi right? Is it stable already for daily use?

cm style by wbt is a stock based rom. It's EMUI which aims to look like cm.
I used free cm rom by papsi as a daily for a few weeks and it was plenty stable for daily use (if you don't mind inferior battery life to emui). Wifi worked fine, the camera was buggy.

It's nearly impossible to port the stock EMUI camera to other stock based ROMs, because of closed source code and - as you mentioned before - due to the fact that the libraries causig problems. The camera from the Honor 7 is simply too deep interested into EMUI. :silly:
