What camera app are you guys using? The Google camera app is OK but I'm looking for more control.
Manual Camera is what I have used in the past and it works very well on the Nexus 6 but it is a good app though and I plan on using it for the 6P if I ever get it.

Hi guys, when I use Skype or tango the front camera doesn't work. I don't know what is wrong with it. Any one can help me please?
Thanx

Download the Camera launcher app for Nexus 7 and see if it works from there.

In skype you have to go into settings then at the bottom somewhere there is a tick box that says enable video calling, it is not in ticked by default because of something about it not being perfect yet, works well for me tho.. Not sure about tango.
Edit: if you wanna use the front cam to just take pics normally and for some reason you can't access the stock app the best way is to just download a third party camera app, bought vignette on sale today and that works perfectly too.

Sounds like you have a faulty camera. Probably you want to get a new Nexus 7.

Depends, ask your store or google. But it is alright if it is with google, you will get your new device before sending the old one
But anyway, try to factory reset or flash the stock rom before.

I got "Cannot connect to camera" message in all camera apps on Nexus 7 when running Skype in the background. The other apps started working again when I killed Skype. Its not your tablet thats broken -- its Skype.
Camera is not working in some custom ROMs afaik

You only have one camera. Skype will reserve it, and no other app can get to it if Skype is running in the background. Be aware of what you actually have running.

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!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
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
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.

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

I seem to get quite a bit of noise in my lite shoots. I wish there was a manual mode to set iso and so on. I use auto and none of the other modes interest me besides hdr, but that doesn't work for kids that can't sit still

All of them except golf. I find the best group face to be amazingly useful for group shots.
I'm massively annoyed by the removal of night mode and turning it into that stabilization option. Lowlight pics look like everyone is made of grease pens.
Auto ,360 photoshpere and best face are my fave and most used.
Is there any app that allows manual mode

Plenty of third party apps do. Just browse Play store. Not familiar with many other than stock JB AOSP camera.

ProCamera, FV5, Shotcontrol, ZoomFX.
I absolutely detest the Stock camera. I'm a professional photographer, I don't need the moron who has never seen a camera to decide for me what setting I must use!

Hey Their,
I want to know which Camera App do you use?
I bought my S4 last week and I'm currently on Mahdi ROM and the standard camera app isnt that good.
I loved the Samsung Camera App (tooked nice photos..) - Is there a good alternativ or a port or something?
Thanks for your help - have a nice evening
Greetings
Tom
You can try the Google Camera that is a free app in the Play Store. Honestly, I like the stock camera as is.
Camera 360.
Good one.
