[Q] Jelly bean camera only 6mp 16:9

i downloaded camera jb+ on my s4 and wanted to see if it was a good alternative for the touchwiz one......
nope!!! i like to take my pictures in 16:9 and samsung lefs me do that with something around 9,6 mp when camera jb+ only lezs me do that with 6 mp which is far too low in my opinion..... is the vanilla camera better than that or do i really have to stay on stock jusz because of that bull****?! i really wanted to flash aokp soon :/

You are better off asking the developer of that app.
I do know that there are two sets of camera API on the S4
One public
The other private.
I do not know if the public API is limited to 6mp nor if JB+ is using public API only.
I do know stock samsung camera app uses private API and has access to all the possible functions and tricks.

What more optimization can they do?? the S4 camera has a nice interface and makes great pictures...

[Q] Front facing camera not centered

Is there a reason for the N4's camera not being centered unlike the iPhone 5? It makes more sense to me to have a centered front facing camera.

Because there wasn't room for the component in the center?
Do you really expect anyone here to have any idea?

It's not an iPhone.

Maybe because the speaker is sitting in the center?!

Well the front facing camera has face tracking, so if you wanted to take selfies, it's not too hard...

Some people have way too much time on their hands......

Since kitkat update camera is slow

Since the update to kitkat the camera of my nexus 4 is slow
It takes times (5 sec) when I launch my camera from the lockscreen.
Do you have the same issues?
Does someone has a fix?

My can launches quick enough, but the auto focus takes so long that I miss shots. Heard its a software issue tho.

Why dont you try focal from play store or any other alternative camera app?

Yahoo weather update interval?

Anyone using this app knows how cn I set manual update intervals and remove some locations. I love this app but it drinks too much battery

Portrait Mode

Does G6 have a portrait or Bokeh mode ? I am deciding between G6 and S8+

But s8+ does not have a portrait mode .

Samsung calls it "selective focus" and it is a "mode" in the camera app. The G6 doesn't have it as a mode, only way is to use the manual mode on the camera and control the focus, which I like better. Manual mode on LG is way superior than Samsung's manual mode

The phone will be for my wife and she is not much into the manual modes to take pictures on her phone.

If that's the case, Samsung has a set mode called selective focus, probably your best option. It's a shame LG doesn't have it, I'd think they would implement some special depth of field mode using both cameras but they don't

The best option have a huawei p10 plus. Selective focus in Samsung is very problematic. It is not a typical portrait mode.

I have a Mate 9 but it seems to have a bigger profile for my wife and that phone takes some epic pictures.
Do you or any place where can I find how to use the manual mode to take depth of field pictures ?
