Any slow motion video camera for nexus4?
like htc one and s4
I hope they do a port if that feature.

I'll use this thread a bit for my own inquiry, so is there any available camera app that allows to change image quality and maybe postprocessing/compression quality?
Since Nexus4 is suppose to have same camera module by Sony than Iphone 4 & 5, the quality still isn't quite the same.
I hope Google makes some great improvements for the next os update 5.0 they already got the look on the OS which I love, maybe a white theme wouldn't hurt neither, but they need more software feature, Samsung does have some cool ones and I just don't like the Samsung look, I hate the color of the Os, I love HTC tho but I'm not sure about the HTC one

So i have searched through the forum and haven't found any answer yet. There is a cam mod by HyperX for the S3 and Note2, but i couldn't find out if there is a way to get this working on the Nexus 4.
Back in the old days where i used the Samsung i8910 HD HyperX had programmed a software which had a slow motion cam (Thank you Andy for your awesome support for the i8910 HD! ).
So i think if the very old i8910 HD had a slow motion cam (by the way it had symbian instead of android D there must be a way to bring a slow motion cam to the Nexus 4? So please help me and all other users who wants a slow motion cam.
And yeah i know i'm a noob so if i missed a thread which have a solution for my problem just say where and i shut up
Thank you for your answers and your help
*push*
Hmm, I'm sure someone would be capable of porting one if the s3 slowmo apps to the N4, it would be a great feature to add.

I upgraded from the Galaxy S to the Galaxy S 2 a few months ago and realized the stock camera app does not come with panoramic shot anymore. Been using another app for this but it is not as seamless or smooth as the built in function with the original Galaxy S. GS2 also has less shooting modes (for one the add-me function, it used to be a lot of fun adding random objects to the photo without post edit). I'm now very tempted to buy the Note as that was the phone I intended to get instead of the GS2 - but does the Note have the panoramic shot built-in with the stock camera app? Also the flash on my GS2 seems harsh (blindingly bright) which I'm sure I can tweak if I know how (if you can educate me know that it would be much appreciated), does the flash on the Note go as bright? My work phone which is a HTC Desire HD has a similar flash but it is not as bright and the photos come out better...
Thanks in advance!
The stock app on note has panoramic mode.
The note I feel takes better pics then sg2 even though the hardware is same

What are you talking about... the Galaxy SII does have a Panoramic function. I've just checked mine and it's there.
I also checked mine and I have Panorama, it's in the options and not just a simple flick of a button! You need to hit the options, and then shooting mode then select Panorama. SGS2 stock rom!
I can't wait for my Note!
Does note's stock camera app have time laps mode?

I can't prove it since I sold my SGSII, but somehow I have the same feeling the Note takes better photos. Quick pics I took to test its details: http://imageshack.us/g/546/20111219094914w.jpg/

I looked for the panoramic mode before under options and I can swear it wasn't there. I went and bought a pano app and have since rooted my phone and now found the panoramic mode in my stock camera app after a comment above!
Thanks for pointing it out
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I would like the panoramic mode if it didn't lose so much resolution, i think you can get beter results by taking the photos in normal mode and use some Panorama software to make the photo.
is there any possibilty to tune-up one x's camera application with full functions to our DHD?
such as fast shooting, HDR function, panaroma function, snapshot during video, etc.?
Simple:
Fast shoting not posible. At least not as fast as x one. Because of camera chip. And the extra processor that is dedicated just fot picture taking.
HDR yes. But Don't expect any picture comperable with one x
Take a picture while taking video . Not possible must have at least dual core. Desire HD hardly keeps working with only videotaking at 720p.
The application itself could be ported but requires kernel 3 and special drivers.
SUM:In my opinion not worth a try.

first of all thank you very much for sharing your opinion.
you may be right q&a section could be more proper for this kind of question, however everybody is focused on "expected ics update" very much in there.
I am using several programs for my camera demands, what I'm asking is a combined solution like hox's camera application.
Actually I tried so many roms with sense 3.5 and 3.6 however their camera applications are not flawless.
Some have panorama in the options, however they do not work as intended.
By the way now I am aware that it will not be possible to have that excellent application (with full working functions) on our old friend.
thank you...

First of all, this is not really the correct section for questions but guess this could lead into some interesting general discussion and theorycrafting.
As far as I know, porting the Sense 4.0 camera w/ features is not possible at all without the required driver information from HTC. Also it is certain that our phones' hardware-specs would not be sufficient for a complete user-experience even if there was a port available.
You might want to look into Sense 3.0/3.5 cameras for taking high-quality panoramas. ICS stock-camera is sometimes more user friendly but the quality is mostly a bit lower. Fast Burst Camera does what it says: takes multiple photos per second. This should serve your needs. Camera apps supporting HDR-effects or similar can be found from the Play store.
Taking photos while capturing video is still a bit of a mystery for me but my lucky guess is that the hardware limitations play a big role in this. Why not just take a screenshot from the media player? High Definition video quality (720p) should do just fine, you just need to use a Gingerbread ROM.

The Nexus 4 is awesome.... but the Camera is driving me nuts. It's the only reason why I haven't bought this phone yet and wonder wether the S3 or Nexus 4 is better for me.
When making pictures the difference isn't that big.. but ad video recordings the Nexus 4 is terribly bad.
So I wonder, since both have a 8MP camera, could get Nexus 4 camera become better by an optimized Android OS? E.g. in the next update?
I have seen a simliar happening with my HTC Desire HD.
Or is the camera simply not as good in the Nexus 4 compared to the S3 ?
Thanks

Maybe a bit , but not much. And yes the sensor in the s3 is much better.

I personally think the camera is good for what it is. The photos I take are easy to edit if needed.
I think software updates could optimize the camera a little better but not by much, if you are looking to make an improvement to the camera, try out the mod in the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2039553
I guess I have to decide then:
Can I live with bad video recordings ?
Can I live with acceptable pictures ?
Generally my smartphone is the only camera, means even when selling stuff on ebay, making self portrait or pictures of ANYTHING -> I will use the smartphone
I honestly don't record videos that often tho.
Depends what you use your camera for. The pictures I take either go up on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook. I'm just a casual picture taker. And no one has yet to complain on the quality of them, they are clear enough for the average joe. Besides, the difference between N4 and S3 pic quality isn't that huge.
Now if you're using it to actually print photos and such... Or if you're an amateur photographer, then I guess the best possible camera phone is best for you. Which in this case would be an S3 or HTC phone.
Like I said, it all depends what you're taking pics for.

I'm generally pleased with the way they look, I'm no professional but if they look great to my eye, then I can only guess they'll look great to the average consumer as well. The only problems I have are my two shaky hands, oh how great the pictures would look if they implemented some sort of image stabilization feature
Well I am not a amteur/hobby photograph, but then again, I use it for all kind of pictures.
Surely the pictures won't look bad but still the S3 is better.
For video recordings: The Nexus 4 is for some weird reason really bad (check comparisons on youtube.. S3 vs Nexus 4 Camera) :/
The s3 is just a horrible looking/feeling phone though IMO live the nexus and think it does videos and pictures fine for stuff like eBay and just in general
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
I agree the Nexus 4 looks better.. and I would overall prefer the Nexus 4.. but the Camera so far is my only concern. I will look for more picture comparisons today.. when it comes to pictures I think I am fine with the Nexus 4.
But those video recording.. soo bad.. that's why I thought there could be a fix coming soon ? Since pictures look "okay" but videos are rather bad.

Use LG Camera app for video recording. Much better results. 1080p, 20mbit bit rate, 30fps.

Do you maybe have a test video/picture from the lg app ?
the video comparisons I am refering to:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSlCc8A3t7A
but especially when comparing these two videos (nexus 4 vs S3) the difference is very big:
Nexus 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3jtl5EOrqA
S3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcbsWeNqy8c
anyone?
Nexus cameras/sensors have always been weak, starting with the N1.
Marks toolkit for the SGN pimped the camera with some nice mods, maybe the same will be included in the N4 kit in the near future, too.
I´m looking forward to it...
Alright, Nexus 4 it is... let's see if the camera gets optimized somehow.
Time to pack for the snapdragon S800 I suppose, that can handle 55megapixel and 4k recording.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
To be honest, I like the N4 camera. The only gripe that I have is that it applies way too much sharpening on the photos it takes. If they were able to tone that down and add native Android volume/power shutter, I wouldn't complain that much (still image-wise at least)
+1 lgcamera is good ! camera ZOOM is good

Hello Guys. Sorry for my sloppy English.
I saw a video review said that S4 could only record slow motion video in 720P. so I check my ATT S4(I9505 hardware), but find that 800*450 is the only option for slow motion record.
So I post a thread about Galaxy S4 camera slow motion problem in a website form my country. from the feedback, people who has I9500 said their option is 720p while for those who has I9505, 800*450 instead.
So frustrated isn't it. Hope those XDAs who is able to enhance the model could put a hand on this,
All of our I9505 users will really appreciate that, Or should we make a bounty? I will put 30$ on it.
Personally, although i am sure the hardware is capable, its a feature that is a novelty. I'm not sure any dev would look at this possibility but you never know.

I can confirm that on my i9500 as well. Can record 720p slow motion upto 1/8 of normal speed. Finally got something in I9500 worth paying the extra 400$ lol.

Yes, i comfirm it too. That's is the advantage of the more powerful SoC and the newer better sensor
This phone should have no problem handling it, considering iphone 4s users had an app to record 720 slo-mo. Just need a dev to figure it out

They got the same sensor. Performance shouldn't be a issue either. Hope that Samsung will add it in the future.

While it hasn't been confirmed yet, most sources seem to point out that the i9505 has a Sony IMX091PQ sensor which is Exmor R, while the i9500 is confirmed to have a Sony IMX135 sensor which is Exmor RS (the newest model with stacked cmos).
That's probably why pictures taken by the i9500 variant are also more detailed and less noisy than those from the i9505.

Hello Guys
We all know how poor is the AOSP's camera app by supporting features ( slow motion exc. ). And N4 has a bad video recording quality with 12mbps bitrate. We can improve it by a mod ( topic is at the second link i gave ) or with a program called LGCamera. Well there is no visible difference between 12mbps and 20mbps.
I made some research and found that these phones use the same Sony Exmor IMX111PQ image with N4.
- Samsung Galaxy S4 Active ( It supports slow motion feature )
- LG Optimus HD 4x
- LG Nexus 4
There are two topics i found that they are useful for this thread;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...vs-nexus-4-camera-recording-v0-2-avc-t2159076
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/mod-increase-camera-audio-video-image-t2039553
How can we improve the Camera App ? Is there any port from Samsung Galaxy S4 Active ?
I would love slowmotion feature. Its awesome on iphone.
First of all at the brochure of IMX111PQ it says that the sensor can take 720p at 60FPS.
And we know examples of Snapdragon S4 Pro can take 720p 90FPS videos. So where is the problem ? I think it's defintly software limitations.
They share the same hardware but different camera drivers, that's one of the reasons we have such poor camera quality... mostly is bad-optimised drivers. (the sensor has some blame on this too).
Our hope is to get new camera drivers with the new Google Camera that has been announced some weeks ago, if not, it'll be more like another camera that you can find at playstore.
Well it can be the optical stuff also ( optical elements ). But its not only the video quality. The camera app is very stricted. There is no options to select.
