[Q] Camera with pause and resume - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
i need a camera app that can actually pause and resume while recording (just like "funtastic camera" but for free...). The mentioned app wants camcoins for each record and it's really annoying.
I searched a long time but thought maybe someone of you knows one app that has this ability (like vine, just for longer videos?).
The Samsung Camera can do this too, maybe i oversaw a port to nexus 4?
Thanks for helping,
greetings.

Bump :/

Good thought. Bump

Front Video Camera

Hey,
i will try to ask the question again.
does anyone know a way to use the front VIDEO camera to record myself ?
using I9000
i am looking for easy way to RECORD myself talking.
at the moment i am using the regular camera to record myself
Any help will be appiciate
Uh? In the camera app i use, the first button switches between front and back. But as this is so obvious i suppose i don't understand the question.
Hy,
It's simple to use that, just go to Camera and click the first "button" on the left side, hopefully it switches to the front camera either to take pictures or to record yourself
But indeed I think it depends on which version of Android do you use.
If you've troubles continuously just feel free to ask!

he was asking if theres a way to set it to video mode, as the front facing camera only takes photo and not videos.
Oh, really, I misunderstood what he want. Srry, but I don't know how to use as VIDEOcamera...

I never realised that videomode was not accessable for the frontcam. Thats lame.
you can't change camera once you are in video mode

total lame, i didn't even tought about it until i try to use it and then i have find out it is impossible.
the other thing is i couldn't find any information about this problem on XDA or any other forum, i guess it is not as common issue as i would expect.
oh well, i hope someone will do some development about it.

Google Hangout stretched video on Nexus 4

So for whatever reason my video is stretched vertically in portrait and horizontally on landscape whenever I'm using Google Hangouts with the front facing camera. I'm going to test with other video chat services like Skype but I'm wondering why that's happening.
I'm not sure whether it's hardware or software but I'd suspect the latter. I'm already rooted so I might just flash a new ROM like PA 2.9 to see if that fixes it. Or can I just flash the camera app again? Any ideas?
I think it's software, not like it when you use Gtalk, hopefully sort it in next update.

Same thing here.. I look weird and all long
But yea i think it is software bug where it is trying to get the resolution of the camera app.
Oh good it's not just me.
I'm relieved
I can see this with both the front and rear-facing cameras. Initially I thought it was my imagination, so I took a couple of screen-grabs of the video with a coin in shot and drew a true circle (blue) and the now-elliptical coin outline (red) over the top.
The images confirm that video in Google Plus hangouts is definitely stretched. Don't see any issue in the regular camera, and GTalk video also looked OK to a superficial check.
Nothing to add except that it is happening for me as well...
Same thing here.
Going to keep an eye out if it's fixed in 4.2.2

I am on 4.2.2 and it's not fixed yet.
I can't believe this hasn't been fixed! Use hangouts a lot, it's a software fix as gtalk app is fine....... No one in the Google house must not be using hangouts on a Nexus 4!

Question I want to ask, are people getting unclear audio on hangouts or that the other side gets echo's? Compare to the iPad version which seems to be fine I get a lot of problems on the Nexus 10 and 4.

Yep, unclear and echoes.....

Did anyone find a fix for this? or know of the problem?
It is a defect for the Nexus 4 only. Just got to be patient for Google to fix it in their App. Wait until after Google I/O

Anyone knows a better camera app?

I come from a Galaxy S and every time I ser the sh*t of camera app is on AOSP... Dotes anyone know a port from other phone or a better camera app.
Please dont spam saying that we have the best camera app.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
AOSP are the only ones that work with little flaws. Try searching for camera apps here but most of them have a lot of extra features which we might not find useful.

Download one of the many camera apps from the play store, for instance Camera Zoom FX is popular

Seems to me you're looking for Samsung's signature slightly-exaggerated-color-depth-and-out-of-control-shadow thing, which is pretty common in people coming from a Galaxy phone. I'd recommend Vignette on GPlay; that app will get you the picture quality you're looking for.
Stock camera is solid if you ask me and I take high-end photographs for a living, haha--no fluff no nonsense, it's all in the know-how etc

[Q] dual camera mode replacement?

Hello guys,
I would love to try the developer ROM's again, but will not go there again until I find a replacement for this fantastic feature in the Samsung SGS4 phone.
There seem to be no apps in the market that shoot simultaneous video from both cameras and superimpose them in a nice soft-edged oval... a REALLY cool feature for parties/events where I want to be seen too...
Any apps I may have missed?
tx
Mark.
Not tried it yet, but I'm aware that there is a port of the Samsung camera in a .zip floating around the dev section. Maybe test that?

Hi
I'll have a look at that, though a few weeks ago I read it was not working well due to Samsung "framework bits" that were missing... but perhaps they have figured that out...
Cheers

Fix for Samsung Galaxy S5 Camera Problem [Sorta]

Ok i know a lot of you guys bought an S5 and it either came with the camera bug, or it came out of nowhere (like mine).
Well i sort of have a solution for this.
Just download the app Snapchat, for some reason this app doesn't make the camera force close since it uses it's own.
It's not the best but in order to do this:
1.Go to the camera on there
2.Just screenshot the screen.
That simple!!
Until there is an OTA update or you plan on getting a replacement, this is the only solution i have figured out so far.
If i helped any please press thanks. ?
