Cameras - Droid Incredible General

Is there a list that we can get of flashable cameras to replace the one we use now? I know of the miui one. But are there others? I could really use a stable camera, with very customizable settings. I kinda enjoy distortions too for effects so that would be nice. My effects dont work, only effects i can do are effects after the photo is taken. Thanks for any help

Replacing a camera app rarely works (the exception here is the miui cam on cm7). I would suggest a third party camera from the market if you're looking for effects.

Alright. Thanks for clearing that up. I personally hate the camera apps on the market lol. Not many good ones

It really is dependent upon the ROM you're using. You can easily flash the EVO camera for example, but the Z camera only works with Z ROMs (for me anyway, YMMV). And the latest camera - GB? - needs a GB ROM I believe.

i dig little photo a lot, it opens the capability up a lot if you the buck or two for the plugin too!

Camera Effects FX is a pretty elaborate camera as far as effects goes. MIUI one is good 'nuff for everything else, easy and quick to use with enough settings to get what you're wanting out of it.

2.2.1 ROM *Best Camera App Tip By PlayGunsta*

Hey,
I yesterday installed the newest version of WolfBreak his CM.
Many things are fixed and the ROM is now incredible smooth!
I also tried some new Camera apps.
Stock Camera App is as always better the the Stock App WolfBreak gives.
Only one app kills them both. It's called Camera 360 Ultimate.
You should really but the app, it's really worth it. You will be amazed by how great the pictures are! Maybe even better then the Stock S.E. 2.1 Camera App!
If this helped you in a search to a GREAT camera app, please press the ''Thanks'' Button!
Any questions about this WolfBreak his ROM? Just send me a PM!
~~ PlayGunsta
Yes you are right..i have been used it for a long time and i can confirm that is absolutely the best!! Thanks for this tip!!
Cheers

I take Vignette. Can anyone tell why the Camera 360 better?
I've tried this app. Yes the quality is good, but why can't you use the flash?
It says phone does not have flash, so in that sense it doesn't beat vignette

The only advantage of Vignette is the possibility tu use auto flash imo. Camera 360's photos are clear and stable..instead of Vignette's that are out of focus!!
Why is this not in the Applications forum? Anyway thanks for the info, will try it out

Vignette out of focus? Not for me.
Anyway I've just done a comparison and I found that quality of vignette is better...
I had both settings on highest quality and turned off flash for vignette.
I think vignetteis better in quality but it is still slow :-(
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
camera 360 Ultimate is not worth, if it cannot handle exposure as no of the cameras for 2.2+ (android, vignette,...) for our beloved X10 write me if Im wrong cheers
Vignette pictures are better. I don't know who said they are out of focus but thats crazy talk! Do you have the newest release? Camera 360 doesn't stand a chance against vignette.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
what are you talking about, make photo comparison in full resolution then we can choose the winner
I think that Camera 360 ultimate is superior I used the two but I found the 360 have a better img processing, they have the same specs like 8.1mp 96dpi but 360 seems to be better to me, and the stable shot function helps a lot!

Tks
360 is by far the best! 10000% no questions asked tried everything else.
Thanks for your tips mate.

..flash on x10 is wery bad....one small led ....so 360 is better for me to!
Ok, thats it. Im going to play with 360 one more time. So using stable shot in 360 doesnt destroy the image like it does on stock camera app?

its like this, if you shake your hand it dont take the pic, soo YOU should get steady, when you are steady it takes the picture automaticly
=)
Vignette also has a stable mode called "steady shot" but i haven't used camera360 enough to compare, only the free version and it caps the resolution to low.

Camera alternative

So I am using CM7, and while I may switch to other AOSP roms, I likely will never go back to TW. However, I do miss the TW camera greatly. It is one thing Samsung did 'right.' I know that camera cannot be ported to AOSP, but I have yet to find a camera app that can emulate its panoramic feature, that I CAN use on AOSP roms. Does anyone know of an app that might fill that gap?
Look through the android apps and games section, do a search for "Sony panorama beta" and see if you can find it. It is nothing other than a camera app that does panoramas, no other features, but it works great.
If you want a good camera app in general either switch to miui or find a miui camera ported to other roms. It's by far the best camera app in my opinion, no panorama but everything world great.

Yeah I already have the miui camera on CM7. I just found the app you suggested, and it does not install for me. It does not appear to be supported for our device however.
Where\how do I get the MIUI camera for CM7?
I use camera zoom fx. Love it.

Does this have a panorama feature? I don't just mean a wide angle shot, but panorama like the stock touchwiz camera has?

Odd, I installed it back on cm and it worked, since then I have gone to miui and it restored from titanium fine. I used it last week to get some cool wide angle shots of times square.

I tried using the panorama-fix-z_signed as well as the zip for the i9000 and couldnt get the apk to install either time, perhaps you can shed some light for me?

If you haven't already, you might try using ApkInstaller, which is downloadable from the market. That worked for me when installing the MIUI camera.
Edited to add that I just followed the link and installed the Sony Panoramic Beta and when I used ApkInstaller to install the version for non-rooted phones, it worked great.

I was able to install the version for non rooted phones successfully, and it seems to be working flawlessly so far. I did not have to use APK installer at all, and I am rooted, so not sure why I had to use non-rooted version, but /shrug. Thanks!
Does Sony Panoramic Beta have that annoying limit on how long a video should be?

Cm 7 camera

Is there a better camera that will work with nightlys?

I know there are a few that use the MIUI camera. There's plenty of posts about that in the CM7 thread if you search. But just curious, what's "wrong" with the CM7 camera?

I don't think anyone is questioning the validity of you wanting a different camera. I believe BrettApple is asking what you don't like about the CM camera because knowing this information could help people make better recommendations.
Maybe you want more special effect options
Maybe you want a different shutter mode
Depending on what you are looking for, people will be able to make better recommendations.
I've personally used CM7 stock cam, MIUI cam on CM7, Vignette (a market app), and Camera Zoom FX (a market app).
These days I just use the stock CM7 cam for most stuff. I occasionally fire up the MIUI cam so I can take advantage of the burst shutter mode. I don't have any other cameras currently installed.
So does anyone have a link to the miui cam? And would I flash it or install it with root explorer?

This attached version should be installable as a regular apk (i.e. no need to flash/push)

Does the MIUI camera still cause reboots with CM7? I used to get them all the time.

I got one. Not sure what setting though
Rest in peace Mr. Jobs....
If you are having reboot issues, I believe that turning off the AutoFocus will resolve. Some people seem to experience it more than others: I have no idea why.
If you disable AutoFocus, touch-to-focus still works.
I use the mini camera without any problems on cm7. I like it better than the stock for the versatility in settings. Is very easy to add.

How to improve camera quality?

Hello, i am going to buy Atrix. But camera takes pictrures ugly quality. Is there any way to improve quality? Compression? What´s about Droid 3 camera app?
I don't know about Droid 3 camera but, I'm using the camera app from MIUI as main one and for even better shots I use HDR Camera+ from the market. Try HDR Camera (not +) first to see if you like it, the + version has a lot more settings and uses flash as well.
Camera Zoom FX works a lot better, you can find it on the market.

Ya well Yikes Atrix Camera
Ya there are software options but the camera just isn't that great to start with. But the rest of the phone is amazing thanks to the development community.
using neutrino's rom atm and you can deff. notice the difference with this one or stock camera, I think it's the MIUI one
so the different cameras apps actually affect the quality of the pictures themselves huh? i thought they were there for effects, stabilization, etc.
i use miui camera aswell..just perfect !

Yeah its the same camera no matter what app/apk you use.
Only thing you can do to improve the camera quality is up the Mega pixels to 5 if you only had it on 3 for some reason. Other than that, totally placebo effect.

pictures with a HDR app look a lot better as you effectively increase the dynamic range of the camera

Not really I took two identical pictures one with MIUI Camera and one with Default CM7 camera, you can definitely tell a difference. While the sensor remains the same different apps will process pictures differently.
The camera in neutrino rom is good, but you loose the front one. Still Atrix just doesn't have the megapixels.

FX Camera takes glitch-free pictures on ics

I've found that FX Camera takes glitch-free pictures on ics roms. The resolution isn't amazingly high but seems to be the best option so far for me... you can also create a shortcut to the normal mode on ya home screen.
Hope this helps some people!

ICS MIUI based on Lord's work
I've been trying some shots, and sometimes there are glitches, and sometimes there are not... anyway it does improve what i had before (glitches ALWAYS)
When using flash, pictures are always o.k., when flash is not used, sometimes I get that blurred portion on top...

the camera glitches is the only thing keeping me from using ICS virtuos quattro.
Unfortunately you can't record video at all on any of the ics roms (yet...)
