I know that the s4 (GT-I9505) can do high framerate recording on touchwiz rom, but I didn't find any camera app that does the work on aosp or cm roms.
I've tried c-rom camera, but it only "does" hfr at the smallest resolution and it caps at 30 fps (so it doesn't work).
Is there an app (in development?) that provides high framerate recording at 1280x720 (or 16:9) for the GT-I9505 that works with CM based roms like carbon rom?
Bump?

My i337 is recording video at variable framerates depending on the lighting of the environment. For example, if I record a video indoors, the framerate drops significantly to 16 or 17 FPS. As soon as I point the camera to a window, the framerate then goes up to 30 FPS. I've never had any phone do that. I've analyzed videos from my Captivate, Atrix, S2, S3, and Note 2 and they all maintain 30 FPS throughout the entire duration of each video. My S4 is dropping the framerate in the middle of recording and can be clearly seen on the screen during the recording and even worse on the computer. When the FPS drops, the video quality is significantly worse than my Captivate videos ever were.
I have tested the following ROMs:
1 - CM 10.2 2013-09-17 nightly
2 - CM 10.1 RC2
3 - Kangabean Google Edition
4 - task650 AOKP
5 - Goldeneye (TW)
Of the tested ROMs, Goldeneye was the only one able to record videos at a constant 30 FPS. All the other ROMs were unable to keep the FPS up. This leads me to think that it is a software issue. I know the whole TW vs AOSP camera deal, but every phone I've had at least maintained the basic capability of taking pictures and recording video with an AOSP ROM. I should be able to use CM 10.2 and record 1080p, 30 FPS videos as well. I want to do everything I can to stay away from TW ROMs. Is there a way to install something like a driver for the camera to work on AOSP ROMs? What do you suggest?
Sounds like a aosp issue for sure. If I was you I'd get a logcat of when you are recording a video so the logcat writes out what's going on and create a ticket issue for cm team to try and fix this bug.

I too have come across this variable frame rate issue after installing a GPE based ROM.
Any solutions found? I hope it doesn't require going back to a TW ROM. :crying:
Thanks.
Is there anyone that can mod a camera2.apk to be able to record at 30fps like M123's camera mod?
Is there a way to record slow motion video with AOSP 4.4 i9505 ?
Till now, nope. I am still looking for slowmotion 720p for the i9505, but nobody ported it. There is a apk file of the i9500 camera (I think android 4.3, touchwiz ofcourse) that you can use to record 720p slowmotion on the i9505 with the same android version. This camera only works with touchwiz roms.
If there was a way to make touchwiz roms look like aosp, I would have used that.
What is the Best camera app for cyanogenmod?
- 4k support
- 1080p 60fps support
- beauty mode like Samsung camera
Is there any way or could anyone mod the camera so we can have 60fps? Is that even possible?
Yes it is but hard to use it in stock rom. They limit the hardware capabilities by software to sell more expensive phones with more feautures. J7 2017 is able to record 720p @120fps and the shutter speed of camera insanely fast. If you use AOSP roms, you can capture videos on faster fps rates. Unfortunately stable ones is limited for our phones, so you have to flash one of the beta builds.
can you name some of the roms that can record at higher fps
