Even the one without flash is terrible

Looks like a problem with the sync between the camera and the flash. Does this also happen on another camera app?

So it's just Stock that has an issue.

Seems that way I'm on EE XUBMI7 FW no updates as yet should I exchange or wait it out

Try clearing cache and data on the camera app, first. Then if that doesn't work clear the system cache in recovery.
It's a firmware issue so I doubt returning it would make any difference.

How do you use HDR+ in new 4.4 camera?

I can't find any option anywhere

Yeah it's gone

We need the camera apk from nexus 5
Sent from my SM-N900W8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Won't work. This is taken from the N5 board, about someone who lost HDR+
Thanks to everyone that helped out.
I found the culprit. I changed my build prop to be a Galaxy Note 3 so I could run Polaris Office.
I have changed it all back and after a camera data wipe it all returned.
So if any of you want to change the device name for any reason, it will disable the HDR+ mode.

But here's the apk anyway:

You can try changing your build.prop to a Nexus 5 but then you'll probably break other stuff on the Note 3

Picture Stitching

Hey All,

Thanx,

That works perfectly, thanks! I'm kinda surprised that the Note 3 doesn't have something like this built in to the gallery. And I'm surprised that there isn't a feature like this in the Google + Photos app.

Welcome. Yea true. all the other drawing and photo related apps you'd think so. I found this when putting photos of my daughter together.

I have tried this several times and I can't get this to show up on my Verizon Note 3. I tried before selecting images, after selecting 2-4 images, no luck. I'm stock and not rooted. The only "create" options I get are "create a story album" and "create video clip". Any thoughts?

If you want better camera pics try xdabbebs or jishnus camera which both improve stock camera a lot

Mine is having the same issues. See my thread. I am starting to think my camera is not defective but rather the camera is garbage compared to the s4.

I tried xdabbebs when my phone was rooted and for some reason after installing that it's sent me in to boot loop lol

Wow those are really ****ty pics. My G2 takes excellent photos.
Maybe your unit is a dud or any scratches on the glass cover?
Here is a blind camera test, G2 (Uses Sony's Exmor sensor) scored better than GS4

I've emailed Lg they ask for some sample photos bet they say they look ok lol
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

lol... btw just out of curiosity, which camera app do you use? stock or aftermarket?
i'm asking you this because i get better images when i use either xdabbeb modded camera app (you can find it here under developer's area subforums) or DSLR Camera Pro (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera) which gives me even more settings to fiddle with...
you can also try some other camera apps like
Camera FV-5

or MX camera...
