Guys okay i can see all of you likes the camera quality and i think then is just me i cant do the right settings to it to get good quality pictures ... i read in this forum to get rid of task killers and use only System Panel and to disable the image stabilizer to get more focused and non blurry pictures but still i don`t think the quality is that great because the sharpness is big fail ...(or it is me not using the right settings) if i have to compare it with camera of nokia 6700 the nokia is taking better quality pictures ... if somebody can tell me what is the right settings to use i`ll be more than happy ty! atm i at as it fallows Normal capturing mode, 8mpx or 6mpx it depends scenes more often are in normal and using multi autofocus as common taking picture method
i agree, id be very interested in the replies, i put most of mine down to poor light but to be fair it should be able to deal with indoor lighting
Ive used 8mp and 6mp wide. I switch on screen touch to take photo. Image stabiliser off.

well its looking good John but anyways in full size picture the quality is not so good... when i`m looking my pictures in my phone they look great but when i download them at my pc they are very different ...i red about switching stabilizer off and its a bit better y but still is more to want from that camera

I use Vignette since I think the default camera app messes with the picture.. it compresses it or something
Plus with Vignette you can take 16:9 8 mp shots, not just 4:3 8 mp. and they look great. Look at my timelapse for proof
yeah with vignette is much better i think but it is only me again how to shoot video with vignette ... because i can only take pictures with this widget
Vignette has a widget?
Anyway Vignette is only for taking pictures, not videos
I think the pics are compressed when uploaded. Zoom is hopeless though.

Yeah... it's a crap digital zoom. Not gonna get anything more out of a lens that small. I don't think I've seen a cameraphone with an optical zoom, and we have some insane cameraphones in Japan. (12 MP CCD with 1080p video, ect)

Tap on the Star button - effects and frames
And then go to frame and choose 16:9
always try to play with EV. It kinda seems that on 0 EV images are bit over exposed. Same as taking well lit night images, lowering EV do -0.7 -1 also lowers ISO values, so you ll get less noise

Well, thing is, Vignette can't do that
And the stock camera app is compressing the files too much.
Why the hell SE doesn't give us the option to set compression level?
Tried all the ones posted here and don't like the stock g2 interface and I like the miui port but doesn't work on here and I hate 4:3 photos. Any know a mod for the stock aosp camera app the makes it 16:9?

Yeah soon as I can figure out how lol I'm running the latest paranoid android. The app opens but when I try to go to setting or any other options the app force closes.
And yeah lenovo super camera looks interesting I'll check it out.
Turns out the lenovo app crashes too. Won't even open.

Get "alogcat" or other logging app and set it to run then reproduce your problem. It's also possible through adb.

Worked great on my stock D80110c rooted (4.2.2)
big apk but everything works ! even the SEEit! Gallery . While it has a lot of bells and whistles functions.
I use this also its been around for a while and works Great
Camera is Android 4.3 Camera App
What works and I've tested:
- take pictures on all res
- photo-sphere works
- panorama works (I've got though some garbled photos at the end)
- front camera works
- video recording works (both 720 and 1080)
- all settings work
If this helped
Click Thanks :good:

This one is only 4:3 and max resolution is 8mp.

well yes and no yes only 8mp no 16:9 in 8mp
2mp 16:9
I know , I know . it is the issue is with the aspect ratio (the ratio between width and height. At full resolution, the aspect ratio of the camera is 4:3. the screen aspect ratio is 16:9. So to display a 4:3 image on the 16:9 screen you need to either leave bands at the top and bottom, or crop some of the picture off the sides. And of course WE want the highest MP . But we have a LG-G2 .
Now now on my LG-G2 with this Lenovo Super Camera is working. And I can set to resolution 4160x3120 13MP and I will test to see if it really is to resolution .. I really dont know
Tested : yes I was able to take pictures at the highest 4160x3120 and 4160x 2340W. every thing works except burst shots .. to fast for camera to focus or to save picture .
A better camera is actually serving my purposes pretty well and it has a lot of handy features. Thanks for the recommendation.
Hello fellas!
we all know that photo quality isn't the same as stock running roms like AOSP\CM.
So i want to share this google+ group with you:
https://plus.google.com/communities/105192843938506663262
Let's make it clear, i m just sharing a link, THIS IS NONE OF MY WORK.
Big up to this amazing guy that work hard for the android comunity.
Currently i'm running the HTC 10 port on mokee rom, photo quality it's defenitly better than Snap Camera!!
To all the google addicts, google camera can work on our device you need only an older apk.
Link: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-2-7-008-release/
this one runs without problems on all roms, the newers are all giving problems.
I hope u find this helpfull
Someone Can share some feedback?
Next week I will try Slim ROM with HTC 9 port
I'd like to find some good camera app with the focus peaking, but until now I had no success.
MIUI have it, but I'd like to have it in custom ROMs too.

I know that mostly Custom ROMs have Snapdragon camera, I was saying that mabye I'll try to use Camera FV-5 on some custom to see if there will be manual focus at least (I don't think there will be focus peaking tho). In MIUI installing FV-5 there's not even manual focus, instead on MIUI camera app there's manual focus and focus peaking too.

After Leaving MIUI 8 and choosing CM13 on my mi4i , i just felt miui camera app is awesome. A d after 2 weeks trying every 3rd party camera app, luckily i found a good alternative to this, and that is OPPO camera mod, you can find oppo camera app searching in threads. That works great but i have downloaded a oppo camera version that looks same as R7 camera app. You can try that searching in forums.

Probably I tried some Oppo camera with my Mi4, but I can't remember well.
I'll definitely give it a try, anyway I guess there will not be focus peaking feature.

Actually, Oppo camera app have more features than miui camera app, like HDR, HD pic (more sturations for cropping), slow shutter (lightning painting), Gif, doubke exposure etc etc... All you need is to download 2 apks, 1 for app 1 for plugins.. thats it. I HAVE UPLOADED 2 CAMERA APP INTERFACE SCREEN SHOTS. THATS Mi4i. CM13

If you enable camera2 api, all apps that support it will work. Otherwise, only MIUI camera has it (proprietary api?).

Prone to lensflares, but very very nice! Low light performance could be better though.

As much as I'm interested in the great sample photos you probably took, I'm not gonna download some random .RAR from a one click hoster. Would you care to attach the pics in a post or up them to IMGUR?
Thanks in advance, I hope it's not too much of a hassle.
in daylight.mi5s's camera is great. amazing
but you need to use 3rd party camera like open camera to get nice picture. stock camera app is not good at low light

I'm on the Xiaomi.eu ROM and was just using full auto mode with HDR enabled. Due to me being on a trip with some friends I wasn't able to fiddle around with manual mode until I got the perfect shot -- but that's certainly planned for another time.
What settings do you suggest for low light shoots?
Attached from left are image no HDR, HDR, Light room android RAW edit super low light and light room android RAW edit morning sky. All taken using stock camera app.
The camera is quite miss or hit. Sometime the photo came out pretty mediocre but sometime its on par with s7.

Play with manual mode, ISO 800-1600 and exposure time (1/15 - 1/18sec). have you a tripod, you can use iso 200-400 and exposure time 4sec or higher.
a lower ISO has better image quality!
Edit: add low light sample photo with manual mode
Pictures taken at a concert in different situations with really low light
Standard camera app (latest stable xiaomi.eu ROM), Auto mode, HDR and flash off
I've got some more to show you, too!
Some pictures with different light situations.
I'll try and do a comparison between miui camera and snap camera on cm13
Hi, i have the same problem as you with the Telephoto Lens that cant record video, but i found a trick/workaround that its kinda usefull and i am made a video about it so you can see the difference and how to do it
you can use Telephoto Lens to record video even Ultra Wide but with the cost of Aspect Ratio...... take a look at it(In the video it looks like it stutters some times but in video samples everything it smooth and with better resolution i dont know why it looks so bad....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOes77dlZ5Y&feature=youtu.be
If someone could edit the Default Camera app to remove all these setting in the Photo Mode and use Screen Record to higher Aspect Ratio would be Perfect and clone it so we have both Main camera and the Same for Zoom Video
You can dial *#899# then go to manual test > camera > second rear camera for the ultrawide, but there's no zoom
