I found that using Cyanogen Mod 7 + the high quality audio patch gave really good video results. If you don't like the standard camera app then I'd go for a Sense rom.
But if your going to be filming and taking pictures in low light then the camera on this phone will not cut it.

Drivers, I suppose, or the Camera app isn't optimized for it. That's just me guessing. I do agree though that the image quality from GB/2.1 Sense ROMs are much better compared to 3/3.5 or even ICS ROMs. I'd go for Virtuous Sense 2.0. Tried that back then. It wasn't perfect, but with a few tweaks here and there (Supercharger Script etc.) I got it running smooth and stable.

I briefly tried to replace my camera /system app a while back but never go it to work, then when I put the old camera app back in pressing the camera button to launch it wont work anymore. Eventually reinstalled the rom (cm7).
I'm talking abt sense based rom..

Hey All,
Since rooting my SGS2 and installing ICS Roms I find the Camera App is total S**t !
I use the camera loads both still and video.
The stock SGS2 Camera app was awesome !!!!! But the ICS one is rubbish !
I have searched everywhere and stock camera app is not available for custom roms or as an apk file.
So I am trying to find a developer to port the SGS2 Stock Camera App so it will work on all custom roms so we can all use it.
Failing that port it to Root Box Rom by Bajee11 as that's the Rom I use.
If anyone is skilled enough then let me know and we can discuss it further. It has to be totally bug free and working though.
I want this to happen so no time wasters please.
Feel free to leave comments regarding your camera experience on ICS.
Also don't recommend any apps as I wasted money on them all.

I think it's impossible if you want it go back to stock rom

Nah I don't think it would be imposable, just a lot of hard work either porting it from GB or starting from scratch. But either way something has to be done cause the ics camera is just crap!
I dont understand your topic. You're talking about a stock camera app. Flash any SAMSUNG based custom or stock ICS Rom and you will have a great camera... If you are using a CM or AOSP based ICS rom, like Rootbox, your camera might be worse. Because you have a Samsung device with Samsung camera, but a not samsung firmware... Or am I thinking wrong here, lolllzzz. Seems like common sense to me...

That's right it is bad but only the cm team can add features to it but no one will port the camera app its not so easy
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I am fully aware that it will be hard but if someone can port the other Samsung apps over then porting this will be possible. It will just take a little hard work and time for someone who has the knowledge about these kind of things (I don't)
Hopefully sooner or later a developer with the skill will answer the call
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
It may not be impossible, but you have to understand that the stock Samsung camera app requires the touchwiz framework and system libraries, these files are completely incompatible with the AOSP framework and libraries, also the libraries in question are closed source when distributed by Samsung so any attempt to port or write from scratch would be a complete shot in the dark and while I'm sure there are devas out there who agree with you, with all the issues Samsung creates for AOSP devs a mostly working camera is much further down the list than other projects.

This is something I've been looking for since I been using CM as well... 6 months now... really sucks to have such a great firmware with such a bad camera... more importantly the reduced camera settings is what makes matter worse...
For eg if you want to make a video with CM Cramera on lowest resolution, a 1 min video is like 40mb... can't even email something like that... while stock allowed 3gp and VGA resolution cams so you can take random small unimp videos to send... like on whatsapp with a 12mb limit you can only make like 5-10 second videos...

Get UCAM pro. Try it. Seriously great.
The question should be about other third party camera apps available on the play store. Is there any app that comes close to the stock samsung app in the terms discussed above?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
As OP states no point in recommending any PS Apps. I have seriously tried them all and wasted loads of money on inferior camera apps.
There is nothing that comes close to Samsung camera application.
Also I have ucam and it's crap. How you can compare that app to the SGS2 Camera I don't know.
Which is a shame. (

I agree with op here...the camera of this phone is very good and that's y I hate when it goes to waste on custom ROMs...Samsung ROM is very very ugly but utilizes camera quality to the fullest and has WiFi direct and FM but aosp and aokp ROMs r beautiful but camera sucks and no WiFi direct..spirit FM is the alternative at least
When will the perfect ROM come
Hell I would even buy the ROM like any play store product if it has aosp with Samsung like cam and WiFi direct and FM

Why don't you use stock ROM with custom theme then?
I'm using Neat ROM and you can flash a custom theme over it (Jkay, vertemus, ...)
There's a lite version in case you don't want all stock Samsung apps.
Not what I am trying to achieve here.
Really want it so the camera application can be shared to all who want it.
Thanks for the idea though.

I'm using that too but it has limitations like the theme is close to aosp but not in full...plus some colours r not very good...some notifications r pure white etc such things...plus changing DPI which is possible in aosp and aokp disrupts the UI in Sammy ROM with aosp theme on it

Try using Ucam from play store it has most of the features of the stock camera and it also ugly like it

i miss my stock camera....,could we like port the stock camera...Ive read some threads with instructions to detouchwiz an stock app,but that's gonna be a pain in the [email protected]#$ then again its worth it i guess.
Me too. I love Root Box but stock camera is really good.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
So I just tried ucam and I must say I'm quite impressed by the picture quality... not as good as stock but definitely better than CM...
Problems with it tho are that it keeps trying to autofocus which I find a little annoying...
Secondly and more importantly... its not allowing to take videos in less than 620*480... which was the problem to begin with... I'm starting to think this is a main CM limitation rather than any application...

The stock camera has the advantage that Samsung can make calls directly to the hardware - fast and efficient. Because the stock camera only runs on Samsung devices.
When we talk about AOSP, now we are talking about generic Android. Google rewrote it for all devices with a general framework - it works on HTC. Now, the hardware cannot be directly addressed. Much more complicated programming - simpler in a way, but harder in others.
Then along comes AOKP. Those guys want to take Google out of the deal entirely, so they again rewrite everything and add another layer of abstraction. And when you think that NOBODY on the AOKP team owns an S2 and they don't even list it as a supported device. It is no surprise that the a large percentage of the features of the S2 are no longer available. For the life of me, I can't understand why putting up Superman wallpaper is better than having a decent camera, long battery life, FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity, etc.....
Hello everyone, I'm now using HTC One with Google Edition rom, and I ****ing love it. I'm switching to LG G2 but I really hate the ugly UI, is there any custom rom, or any way to convert it to Google Edition? Thank you.

The g2 has better hardware than the one, but aosp is not nearly as stable. I love my phone, but coming from a nexus, I sure miss stability.

In my country they sell only D802.. is that a problem?
Also, does anyone know what's the difference between the One's and the G2's speakers? I mean, I know the One's are way better, but as for the volume, which has the louder ones? And how louder are they?

D802 is supported too, no idea if the stability is any different but I wouldn't imagine it would be.
As for comparison against other phones for various stuff; no idea.

Knock on is okay but knock off can't be used on lockscreen and even in launcher you have to tap the status bar.(With nova launcher you can knock off by double tapping on home), but that still won't give you ability to knock off on lockscreen.

In Paranoid Android, you can use knock off on the lockscreen. It's been implemented since Beta 5, I think.

Ah, pretty nice then. I wasn't aware about it.
Did a quick search but couldn't find a definite answer, so does anyone know if the Xposed framework is compatible with stock rooted G2? It's the Sprint ZVA variant, deodexed. I'd really like to customize this phone a lot more but to be honest I'm really not too impressed with many of the custom roms because I've found a nagging bug in just about every rom I've tried. Stock seems to work best and provide solid battery life, call quality, etc so I'd prefer to stick with that, and customize the hell out of it.
Edit: tested, works great on stock with G2 Xposed. I am even able to install CM themes on stock with HK Theme Manager.

Thanks. I'm using stock 4.2.2 rooted. I just thought I'd ask before experimenting. I'm a bit leery of accidentally sending a phone into a boot loop that has a sealed in battery. (Though I hear volume up+ power will reset it, which is handy)

But it doesn't do anything on this port.
You have to have the underlying APK for that functionality as well.
Further, this isn't really a G3 UI, as much as it is a G3 Launcher and icon pack. The holy grail will be the "porting" over of the G3 APKs to the G2, which should be pretty stinking easy given that they both run 4.4.2. Hell why doesn't LG just release the apps over their app updates? They actually just might do this.
I pray for the G3 interface every damn day. When the G3 comes out, I have the tools to port it myself if it comes to that.
Cheers
