Atrix's Camera, How to Improve? - Atrix 4G General

hi
We all know that Atrix's camera is one of its down sides.
What are you suggestions to improve quality of photos?
any software, settings, etc?

What settings do you use for your camera?
Sent from my Atrix 4G with XDA Premium App

I guess downloading other apps is the main way to improve it. Nothing can be done about it's poor light capturing sensor tough.

I like the camera I dunno what your talking about. I find the hdr camera really helps.

2.3.4 camera is excellent. I have taken my best phone pictures with it ever.

I like the atrix camera.
on 2.3.4

Just read consumer reports and the Atrix got 3rd for best camera phone. And I think it's got pretty good quality really...

First of all dont judge the camera by looking at pics on the ATRIX screen, it sucks
Transfer to pc and see
Next thing camera is better on GB
Next best software is LGcamera and not HDR camera
Try it ,it has loads of settings and works really good

Im actually going back to an iPhone 4 because of the camera on my Atrix. Nothing really compares once you you've had an ip4.

why would you switch to THAT phone just because of the camera? lol.

I can't say I see big difference. Maybe your settings not set to widescreen or the largest. I took an awesome pic the other day but lost it in the whole rooting thing by accident but I won't go back to Iphone 4 because of it...besides my son would be p.o.'d if I took my phone back LOL

Pretty sure it's well known that the iPhone 4 has one of the best if not the best camera on a phone due to the high quality sensor it has.

I love the atrix and its camera. Maybe because i've never owned an iphone I don't get all the hooplah

Well its not the best (nokia n8 probably is), its good....for a phone. Honestly though have you never used a decent digital camera before? I would never base a phone purchase (at least at this time) on the camera when you could spend $100 buying a used p&s off ebay that would blow the iphone away for photos. If photography is what u care about buy a cheaper phone and a dslr to go with it.

He didn't mention real cameras. In the world of phone cameras, the iPhone 4 is near the top along with Nokia n8. Of course any stand alone camera will blow away any phone camera.

Except a real camera, if picture quality is that important to you then buy a camera. The Atrix camera is fine for a phone and not any worse than the iphone imho.

Anyone happy with their GS3

I got my gs3 and so far everything good not big upgrade compare to what I had, just the network but then again that's one of the major consideration on smartphones, phone is fast, camera great, 64 gb plus 16gb of storage and loving everything even the screen and the color (pebble blue) I see a lot people complaining like always when a phone is release(first is where the f*** is the phone and after they get it, does your phone do this?), anyways anyone else out there happy as well?

Can't you just search for the beats audio software mod that's been zipped up and flash it?
Criticism I heard/read about beats audio is that it's mostly software enhanced "gimmicks", E.Q stuff etc, and can be flashed to most phones...

I've heard the "Beats" audio, it's mostly enhanced bass and tweaked treble. Was not extremely impressed.
As for my new GSIII, I like it. Came from a flashed GSI. The improvement is alot more than coming from an older laptop to a state of the art one...
Yeah, I rooted it a few hours after getting it.
I came from the Aria, so the difference is pretty significant. I will say that I think the screen is ever so slightly too large. I think 4.3-4.5 inch displays are the perfect size.

Came from a gs2. Ran aokp and fluxxi kernel and it was smooth.
But the gs3 beats it by a mile.
Gps is faster. Battery life is way better. Data speed (lte) ****s on hspa and I love the screen... Plus the camera is very nice.
So overall the difference for me is pretty big.

Happy, mostly... Wish I wouldn't have had the evo to play with first, grr... That camera knocks this one's dingle in the dirt, the display is much nicer, and the devs are killing that thing, lol, I'm sitting here with my rooted phone and thumb up my arse wishing I knew how to dev cause we have not one Damn Rom... On the other hand I do like playing with Samsung as it's a tad different than HTC. It feels maybe a little better than evo in my hands, in a strange way, the phone feels a little cheaper so I'm not as worried to use it like it's intended. This thing gets hot and has performance issues and hopefully all my "issues" are all software related... It does have removable battery which is huge for me as I like to keep a few extra batteries charged and ready to go, HATE to be tethered to a wall. The sound on this thing is really loud and clean, really appreciate that... The digitizer is a bit spastic at times but that might just need tweaked as well... It does have 2GB's of ram:-~ lol, I don't know any Sammy devs either, did they all go to evo??? Lol, Need to flash something, going through withdrawals:-o I also don't have any of the display having the black spots or weird colors so maybe I got lucky for once... Ramble, ramble...

I have an evo lte too and it's screen + camera is beautiful. I just got my s3 in today and I'm sure they will be more devs when everyone is actually able to get the s3. I mean I pre-ordered mine on the 7th and it didn't even come until today with all the shortages.
Give it time, the devs will come here =)

For those of you who switched from an s3 to an n4

I'm thinking of selling my s3 to pick up one of these . I was just wondering for those of you who switched .how does the n4 camera compare to the gs3 camera

I've only taken a few photos with the N4 so far,
Generally...
The S3 camera was brilliant inside in well lit shots (photos with flash came out awful) and the N4 can't match that,
The S3 was always slightly off with certain colours outside, the N4 doesn't seem to suffer this problem.
Things I've noticed...
HDR mode works better on the N4,
The N4 lacks image stabilisation which I liked on the S3,
N4 images look slightly less sharp when viewed full size on a pc (not sure if this is due to the lens, less sharpening or more noise suppression),
When viewed on a PC N4 images seem to have better colour in certain situations (for example, outside my daughters pink coat always looked washed out with my S3 but it looks perfect on the N4),
My S3 occasionally did funny things to peoples faces, made them look like they had been slightly distorted, I could never work out what caused it, it just popped up now and again in photos, not noticed this with the N4.
All my comparisons have been done on my PC and not the phone screens.
That's good to know , Cruz the pictures on the actual phone screens u can't compare ,I shall upload and checc on comp as well

What? A lot of people find the Samsung/Touchwiz camera app to be more "feature-filled" than the AOSP one (especially prior to 4.2), so it's not ridiculous. But thanks for your contribution.

For the price this is a great device but if you use your camera a lot and want somewhat good pictures then yeah id stick with the s3 , some people say if you want good pictures buy a dedicated camera but that's not what people are usually asking , night time pictures aren't that great on this or I got a faulty device I guess

I have the photojojo lenses. They work very well. With the fisheye lens you can see a black rim on the edge of the photo. They are attached with a magnet that you put around the rim of the camera lens. I would recommend them. Just so you know the photojojo lenses ane not any different from the no name Chinese ones. They will work with any smartphone camera. Here is a review.
I have , I bought them on amazon , search patazon camera lens kit ,mine came from China but I like them a lot. They where about 17 bucks including shipping.

They're completely worth the money. I have telephoto, fisheye, macro and wide angle lenses. The telephoto lens is particular useful since digital zoom sucks.
Where did you find the telephoto lens and which one. How does it stay on the phone?

It seems like the Photojojo is the most reliable one. But for 50$? Too expensive. Are there any other alternatives in amazon/ebay? It would be awesome if it would be a set.

Could you please check which screen you own? Because there is a screen made by Samsung (C1) which is not as bright as the average HTC One Screen (C2) or the Sharp one.
HTC ones do vary. Not sure why you are making the connection C1=Samsung and C2=Sharp however. Can you cite a reference for this?

my biggest issue with htc was battery life... thats improved a lot with the one and each day my love for touchwiz grows a little lesser and i like my one a little more
Clearly, the HTC One M7 is far better than S4

I never said u lied, you dont own both devices, I do, Ive checked them out and forget me, maybe am wrong, gsmarena seems to agree...just because I like touchwiz more than I like sense doesnt mean am a fanboy or am not objective... I did point out all flaws of touchwiz, call some gestures a gimmick, criticize samsung for a whole line of galaxy crap and point out the lag whatd i say about the one? the screen's not as bright... yup i seem to have a faulty device... its not as loud... and then u call me a sammy fanboy? phew!
BTW Devices I currently own - Oppo Find 5, HTC Butterfly, HTC One, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Note, Nexus 4, Nexus 7, Xperia Z and a Lumia 920

Curious about buying the Nexus 4

So I have a few questions.
1. Does the Nexus 4 work *only* on wifi? Meaning if I bought one *phone only* could I just start "using it" at home on wifi? I don't want to activate it yet.
2. I see only "international version" on Amazon... Does this mean it won't work in the U. S.? What exactly does it mean?
3. Honestly... Does the phone do anything that pisses you off? Truthfully. Yes I plan on rooting and ROMming.

1) Yes
2) There is only one version of the N4. It will work on US GSM carriers.
3) Battery life isn't amazing, apart from that I'm pretty happy. Get a case, the phone is known to be a bit fragile to drops.

Yep. International means can be used with any GSM operator. The only thing I hate about n4 is the way it's so fragile without a case and so thick with it.

Mk. Someone over at Android Central said the camera was a bit of a bother too? I'd be switching from an LG Optimus V. Love using Camera FV-5.

I personally don't care how it takes the photos, but that's enough for me to take nice pics and copy texts.

On all honesty this is an amazing phone. I havent had any problems...I'm waiting on the N5 but all in all its a great phone.

I think it takes good pictures for a phone not made by Sony or Nokia....
I'm coming from a Samsung i727R, the SII Skyrocket, and
I think it takes better pics...
A really quick, smooth phone. Camera is my only problem with it. It is poor indoors and taking action shots.
As a comparison I also have an iPhone 4s and imo that camera is much better taking similar shots.

Only thing that's not optimal is the battery life.
One thing that piss me off...
Camera is terrible.
My old Samsung Galaxy S2 takes better picture than the nexus 4
But then again, I got it for $350.
