Hello.
I am running official nightly release of CM12 for Note 4 Snapdragon. I want to record 1080p at 60 FPS but I do not see such option in the settings. Any solutions to that issue?
Not as yet. The camera will get better but at the moment there are other things to optimise, bear in mind that cm has only just really become official on the N4, give it some time, the camera will get some attention soon enough. Not sure about 60fps but it'll definitely be improved.

Before i get chastised for asking this. I have tried every camera apk (the lg cameras) for aosp and i cant get a single one to record 1080p 60fps. It will look like 60 fps in the viewfinder before i press record and then the framerate just completely drops . Is there a fix or something i dont know about? Im on the latest build of paranoid android.

since the camera module isnt open sourced we cant merge those features into aosp roms. also all these 60fps and 120 fps recordings require those dammed libs which are again, closed source. so if you want camera features like me. id suggest cloudystock 2.2. its a nice rom with good battery life and not much bloat .

Thanks for the reply. I guess i'll either stick with the oneplus one camera app for now since its pretty good (aside from being able to do 60fps) or try out cloudystock like you said
If you like a darker UI try out cloudyflex
I've searched XDA, I've searched Reddit, I've searched countless forums with ZERO success. I've tried Lenovo Super Cam, I've tried installing the LG Cam, I've tried flashing in the HTC cam. Nothing fixes the smeary, awful framerate and as a result I've taken exactly zero good photo or video on this phone in CM12. Is there any hope for CM or AOSP ROMs? I'll sell this phone before I end up putting an LG-Stock ROM on this thing.
I'm looking for stable framerate in photo preview and video preview, regardless of light on CM12. Does this holiest of G2nicorns actually exist?

CM12 is pretty old. I personally don't have that much issue with the camera anyway. It's a driver issue, which could explain the framerate, but the quality is pretty similar. Could you maybe take a couple of pictures and show us what the difference is?
Not sure how a photo would illustrate a low frame rate but this video shows the sneariness and frame drops. This isn't my video but the performance is similar or worse. It's the same for the photo viewfinder and that makes it impossible to take a photo or video in anything but glaring sunlight.

That's how it works though, the aperture remains open longer to capture more light, which causes less frames per second. Try recording the same thing on a stock rom and let us know how it goes. But then if it's a driver thing you can't do anything about it.

All I needed to know. That LG Stock ROM is a flaming trainwreck, and if there's no fix for AOSP or CM I literally am better off getting a new phone.

Well the video you linked IS a stock rom. There's no fix because it's not an issue, it's a camera characteristic. It's like saying a monitor doesn't display 120hz being a 60hz monitor. It doesn't, and if it did, it'd have some drawbacks. If you want steady framerate lower the iso.
It's still a phone camera, and a pretty good one at it. I'm not sure how people sometimes forget that. If you find a smartphone that matches a DSLR in the camera department and is around 200$ let me know.

The stock ROMs used to have the issue as shown in the video above, but they don't anymore. I don't know where but when I bought the phone and used 4.2 the camera was busted, and when I upgraded to 4.4 stock it was super smooth. And that's what I'm looking for, but only on AOSP or CM. No frame drops and a smooth, consistent 30fps or 60fps just like the stock ROM currently does. The stock ROM is an awful way to use this phone. I bought this phone when it was one of the cheap $180 unlocked devices posted on Phandroid with the strict intention of not using LG's C- effort. If it can't be done, it can't be done. No big deal.
There's a million threads from 2013 and 2014 that list "Oh use this, use that! Try Lenovo's camera! Flash so and so's fix even though the files are literally nowhere on the internet!" and literally nothing solves this issue in the slightest. I figured in 2015, maybe someone would know of a definite fix.
All 5.0 AOSP roms have a crap camera, including 4.4 AOSP.
Flash any 5.1 AOSP ROM for the G2 like BlissPop or Euphoria, it looks like Google got their **** together in 5.1. The camera IS better than CM12, but still not as good as LG rom.

Lol, this doesn't look like g2 at all. At least not compared to mine. The main reason I am not running aosp is the camera. Running aosp g2 turns into bad nexus 5 pretty much (imo). Not just the camera, there are tons of bugs there. If you want good camera - go with stock, as simple as that. LG camera drivers and ois makes videos very smooth. Grab a Rom with advanced camera drivers and install xcam. Fhd 60fps at night as good as in daylight. I will send you a video of mine if you want so you can see what I am talking about.
But yeah, aosp = ****ty camera, and there's nothing to do about it. Sorry
Maybe some of you have seen the same question here in xda or in other forums, but I've researched deeper about the image sensor and it also supports 1080p60 video recording and even more! Actual recording is not even 30 fps, is 25 fps!
As you can see in the image
Why another thread?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/moto-g4-plus-1080p60fps-t3552528
PS: The recording is at 30FPS in a normal country like US.
First off, there are 3 threads about this on XDA already.
Secondly, unless you want to rewrite the drivers and modify the kernel for the G4+, then don't ***** and whine about not having a feature 98% of people don't use. Besides, the G4+ sensor, while decent, lacks any sort of stabilization (OIS/EIS), and 30fps is generally sufficient regardless.
Moreover, a bit of heating while using the camera on the phone is well known, don't know what will happen if one day by chance 60fps is enabled somehow

People then will cry why the device is getting so hot while recording 1080p60 and wants to fix this ASAP.
Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Huawei Mate 10 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
1080p 60fps looks really bad, not sure why.
1080p 30fps looks better, but sometimes there is blurriness.
There's focus hunting in 60fps but if you set to AF-S it's ok. Better to use 30fps for extra stabilization though.
Unfortunately video is bad if not awful...
Just my opinion after two weeks of testing it.
It's the first time that i am so disappointed from a flagship.
Just received two days back update for my mate 10. Just by luck I recorded a 1080p 60fps video and I noticed that the clarity of video and sharpness has improved dramatically. You can proof this if you record a similar length video at 30fps. The size of 60fps video is double of that for 30pfs meaning that the frame rate has doubled.
The best video I've ever shot with a phone, including Pixel 2 and Galaxy S8. That is IF you got a tripod, or stable hand, if you don't then it's bad.
The 4K video I shot using my hands was perfect, looked like a DSLR video or some ****, noise was non existent and the processing was amazing for a smartphone. I filmed a ballet performance, with changing stage lights and fast movement, also it was pretty much pitch black in the concert room except the stage which was lit. My friend used his Pixel 2 to shoot 4K at the same time, and his looks like **** compared, too much noise and it just looks bad.. the Pixel 2 video looks like it came from a smartphone straight up, the Mate 10 4K looks like it came from a $700 mirrorless or something.
I have to say again, this was video shot while SITTING at a ballet performance, in this situation where you don't have to walk around, Mate 10 has the best video out of any phone I've seen. If you have to walk and move around a lot, then a very good stabilizer 4K is the best video phone, S9+ or OnePlus 6 come to mind..
Just a quick one.
What do you think about the video settings for Mate 10 Pro. I have the phone almost a year now but right after I bought it in around few weeks I disabled the video stabilization which is EIS and of course it has OIS built in. I mostly shoot 1080p videos do you think it is a good idea to keep the EIS on as well or just to have it with OIS. What I do not like is the image is somewhat blurred and distorted when panning and when not enough light due to the EIS. But still would like to hear your opinion. Thank you!
You may wanna watch the video link below shot entirely using Mate 10 & Gimbal.

Has the video quality changed at all since EMUI 9? I feel like the 1080 video is crap and unusable at all
Since EMUI 9?

What do you mean "since" EMUI 9? The mate 10 shipped with EMUI 8 and has for the most part has not even been upgraded to EMUI 9 except for beta versions. As with any major upgrades there will probably be some bugs with EMUI 9 (and probably with the camera) that hopefully will be fixed before the general release of EMUI 9
Hello,
Does EMUI9 includes stabilizing in both 1080p and 4K since I no longer see the option to disable or enable it?
Thank you!

If you are not familiar with the upgrade and how to perform it , then you not should type! The official release is already provided and for those who waits for it can upgrade via Firmware Finder as I did fully official build 9.0.0.161
Everything works as before.
720p HD 30 fps > OIS + EIS
1080p FHD 30 fps > OIS + EIS
1080p FHD 60 fps > OIS
4K UHD 30 fps > OIS
Thanks! I will continue to shoot in 4K anyway. Best quality as the 1080p looks more of a 720p upscale.
The only problem with 4K is 10 minutes limit but I agree with the quality, it's good even in indoor use.
Not impressed and hoping they are somehow able to improve this. Here's what I got on camera

p.s. am on G9860ZHU1ATCH
why did you purchase before you watch reviews on youtube? months will pass until they " fix " things, by then Note 20 will be released instead of fixing anything, it's how Shamesung does things, S10 is half the price atm and far better deal
8K is more or less a theoretical feature, at least atm. I am more surprised that 4k ist not offering the same features like 1080.
