Hello guys, I have installed a CM12 nightly build into my Galaxy Note 3 [hlte] and everything is fine.
But I was wondering, is it possible to bring back some of the original apps (like the Camera or S Note) which i had with the original Samsung firmware?
Thanks

It would be nice - I think a lot of us CM users would like the Sammy camera back. But unless there's a Dev out there who wants to spend a lot of time, you either have those apps or a really slick phone.
hi may i ask what are the bugs in cm12 that youre using? i wanna flash it too but m afraid of major bugs. and no you cant have TW firmware ori apps on CM.

Actually I haven't discovered any bugs yet. Everything seems working fine, wifi, bluetooth, wifi hotspot, 3G, sd card...
how about the pictures taken by the camera quality? volume sounds low?

Pics seem fine although some have lamented the 'night mode' lack. All resolutions available.
Sound seems pretty normal but I use Viper4 anyway - the missus gets upset if I go to the pub and don't hear her messages arrive. So I use Viper to boost the sound. Can't have SWMBO getting mad...

Pictures are the same as with the original firmware, volume is high.

I'm a little curious as to what you expect to learn from a pic? It's not going to tell you much unless you know precisely the conditions it was taken in and how good the photographer actually is.
e.g. attached is one of mine, but what does it tell you about the actual camera app? Temasek's CM12.1
Thanks for doing that for me. Basically from my previous device a note 2 running on cm the image quality of the picture after you snap it its still just not the quality you sèe on the stock firmware. no matter how you took it low lights or bright under the sun you will still able to see it blurry. Me i use my note 3 camera quite frequently so i need the images to be as clear as what the stock gives. Hope you get what i mean haha

Yes... in that pic I tapped on the label as I am selling the pump and wanted that part clear as possible. I've found any blurriness is me, not the phone. I wouldn't mind a cam app that lets me change ISO and as well as shutter time though...
I think one issue with any cam app is the shutter sound doesn't match WHEN it takes the snap, so to get clear shots we have to hold for longer than the actual shot time... or use burst shot and pick the best image.

Hi all, just made some videos with my SGS2 and edited them on Windows Movie Maker.
I'll be happy to hear about your opinion, particularly in terms of light, do you have some trick to make better videos?
ROM is Batista70 FoxHound 2.4 with Camera Hack installed, so if you have a better one related on video making, you're welcome!
Thank you so much!
These are really good... hard to believe its just from a phone..
Excellent
Just put a powerful magnifying glass on the camera and you'll get much closer
a like to camera Hack PLS
and can it be installed on a stock rooted rom ?

i think no mate, it's an extra you can download directly from the rom updater...
Just wondering how could you steady your phone while capturing?Do you have any camera stands or anything?
yes, the phone is on a tripod
i forgot to mention that
Does having a custom non-Touchwiz ROM change the camera performance? Like Cyanogen mod or AOKP, I'm not entirely sure what a ROM changes. Would the quality of the other modes change (HDR, HDR video, etc)?
We'll never have sammy camera on aosp/cm. You need tw framework for it to run. Thats the only downside of aosp/cm. But honestly im on rooted stock and im loving everything about this phone. Ive ran aosp/cm on all my phones and hated touchwiz. The s4 has definately made me content for now.

I understand that the Samsung camera application cannot be ported over, but is the performance of the camera still the same? Basically do pictures taken still look like the same quality? My other major question is what modes are available? Other than just normal is there HDR, night, etc.

I flashed CM 10.1 about 1 hour ago, shortly before deleting my only System files on it (DOH!). Anyway, I noticed the camera wasn't good at all in CM 10.1. I dont know if its just the way it looks, I didnt take a single picture, but I didnt like it and its one of the reasons im going back to stock.
Do you know if the camera quality will get better?
Just install a different camera app from the Play Store. I use Fotor and it takes excellent pics.

Hey people, how are you all doing? I too got a Galaxy Note III about a month ago and after a lot of experiences, I thought of asking for some advice.
When i use the camera app, the image looks clear and fantastic on the screen but as soon as I click capture, the saved image isn't what I see while capturing. I made sure I don't move the phone while capturing and tried it in different environments as well but the same continues.
I haven't rooted the phone yet and made sure that no app installed on the phones messes with the camera. So, any solution for the problem?
Thanks!

Hello guys , i just bought a s5 but i notice that the front camera looks blurry. I tiried turning off beauty face and play with the options but it doesn't seem to correct it. I don't know if this is a software problem or what
We have no way of knowing either because you didn't even provide a sample photo or detailed information about your settings or how you use the camera.
Without those crucial details, all we can do is make random guesses. Perhaps you aren't holding the camera steady. Or have a fingerprint over the camera aperture. Or innumerable other causes. You need to provide a lot more information if you hope to narrow down the cause.

Forgot to mention that beauty face is on but even if inturn it off it won't stop being blurry
looks like you have it set to two megapixels. try setting it to 16 and see how it looks

so sorry to resurrect this thread.. but with snapdragon camera app (which now almost all roms are using [mostly without mentioning]), the front camera image is so good. BUT when you use apps like whatsapp or imo and try to use it internally (via the app itself), the pallid blurry and ridiculous image reappears.... any solution to that?
I take the photo with the stock Samsung app, and then share it via WhatsApp or whatever I'm using
WhatsApp is terrible for camera/video, won't focus half the time, most other camera apps are a lot lower quality than the stock Samsung one, which is why a lot of people stick with TW ROMs
Hey all,
Sorry if this has came up before - given what the question is it wouldn't surprise me if it had!
Does anyone know what the, generally accepted as, best video recording app for our phones are? After coming from iOS, the camera functions are the only part of the phone that I'm finding it hard to match the iPhone.
I generally take a lot of videos and edit them. Mini-movies aren't aren't at all uncommon for me to film.
Whilst I'm still using my iPad for editing the films (iMovie and so on), I'm anxious to continue to use (and enjoy doing so) my S4 for video recording. My old 5S shot incredible video and even at lower resolution settings the output was generally smoother than the S4 shoots at the same settings.
If I'm stuck with the quality of the video recordings, that's fine and I'll make do. I would just prefer to find an app that can shoot at higher than stock bit rate etc and give me as many options (or close to) that the apps on iOS offers. I came to android as I absolutely LOVE using lollipop and the way it works is brilliant, so as said if I need to continue as I am that's fine. If it helps I'm using GPE 5.0.1 at the moment. Please not I'm not looking to start an iOS vs android discussion, just looking to find out what options I may or may not have and what I might be missing in the Play Store.
Thanks guys,
Pete

Just using this camera app and defo seems to give a better result than TW or other apps I've used in the past, quick question though cause I can't seem to find it anywhere .. Does it allow use of the front facing camera?

that's the only downside. it doesn't have front camera support. just use the stock camera for front camera video capturing. :fingers-crossed: :good:
