Is there a way to make camera work on aosp roms? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

It seems like asop roms did not support the sony imx sensor and cam will fc any time.
Could there be any way to make it work? I do not care much about picture quality but a working cam would be great.
In my case, touchwiz is really laggy and i want to try out lineage or something else.
If anyone got a reply - thanks in advance!

Video recorder is with the camera. Open the camera app and yheres a switch to change it to video recording. There is no separate icon for it.
Duh...I knew that. I was just testing the techs here, Lol.
All kidding aside...thanks for the tip. Now that I know how to use the camcorder, let me ask this. Do they make a better app for recorder video?
Example...They make better apps for just taking snap shots...so thought maybe they make a better app just for video.
Before someone says..."why dont you just search the market"...I did that, and could not really find anything.
Thanks again for the help,
BK
BUMP....Please help guys, thanks

And what exactly is the same problem? Going back to stock won't make a magical camcorder app appear in the market...
what kernels are you guys using.. ?

+1. I would like to know this too. I've searched high and low but just can't seem to find anything and I would like to blame it on my lack of searching ability rather than face the harsh reality that no one has made a better camcorder app than stock.

may not make a better app appear in the market, but you can use the better Sense Camcorder app

Jishnu's Camera doesnt work on ART,what could be the best camera app,then?

I'm on mahdi rom from stock based rom. everything is great but the camera. It's really slow when i take pics. and the quality really sucks. I was in my friend's wedding and he asked me to take some pics for him and the luck girl. and after waiting for ages for the pics to be taken. i checked the pics and figured out the quality of the pics were really bad.
I went search for some apps with which i hoped would replace the stock camera. and it'd worked, i wouldn't have been asking around.
So guys, do you have any suggestion for the camera apps? you information will be greatly appreciated.

It doesn't work on ART. I just tried, it read "app not installed". So probably this baby only loves dalvik.

Oh, with pressure sensitivity? does the camera still work well? 60fps and so on?
Last time I checked there were just too many features from the Samsung roms missing.

The captured images won't be of same quality on CM like it is on TW ROMs. Forget about 60 fps, LOL. It's just the something is better than nothing approach, nothing else.

Yeah, I am talking about quality on a phone cam sensor. The quality difference is so much that even with naked eye, and even a dull headed person will notice the difference! And I am a DSLR guy by the way!
My biggest issue with CM is that there isn't a good multiwindow implementation yet. I know they're working on it (I think Google, could be CM, not entirely sure who exactly it is that's working on it), but the feature is still in early alpha. I can't use my phone without it. It's like not having a browser or a SIM card.

Same camera sensor quality, just no FPS changes currently available, thus far. I am a micro-4/3 guy by the way, but don't see the relevance to this post :silly::silly::silly:

Who was talking about camera sensor! Everyone knows software can't change the hardware sensor! Its the post processing that matters, and that's where TW will thump over any CM/AOSP any day, any time.

Camera is really slow

Hi. Has anyone experienced really slow camera performance with S3 Neo? Like you pressing shutter button in camera app and image is actually being taken 3-8 seconds after that?
I got this issue on CM12 and CM12.1, didn't tried other ROMs yet. I've tried different camera apps, Google Camera, OpenCamera and CM stock one. Each of those apps seems to be affected the same way. It works a bit better after reboot and cleaning camera app cache but I can't do that often. If someone can help me with this, I'd really appreciate. Thanks.
PS: I've tried camera fix from this forum but probably it's for some other issue as my camera stopped worked completely after applying fix and I had to re-flash ROM.
Camera fix is for devices that have a different camera sensor (there are two). So that's indeed not the right file. As for the camera speed, I'm not really sure. Mine is also really slow (cm12,1). I've come to live with it because i rarely use my camera anyway. I've tested some touchwiz based roms, and the camera was faster on those :/

OK, it seems like we're getting somewhere. Could it be CM issue? Maybe some other CM users can write a word about their camera app speed? I really like CM though, stock ROMs are overloaded with tons of software that is never used.
Nikola's CM have some issues with camera timing, and Motion based roms have laggy camera performance
Better to go with stock, because it uses the camera at the maximum performance.

Thanks! I'm currently testing CM based '[ROM][Stable][5.1.1][December 31]Resurrection Remix 5.5.9 - Final version' and it looks better. Need more testing though. Stock is too awful to use, I'd better live with slow camera, but maybe there's a solution.
Nope, Resurrection Remix is slow either, CM's curse. OK, I got it - fast camera OR fast ROM, no exceptions. Too bad, maybe CM13 will fix this?
Camera Quality is Poor
S3 original is better than this..
regards Junaid Shahid
I've found 'lite' version of original firmware made by guys from 4PDA (link to original thread, sorry it's in russian).
It's 500 MB in archive and almost all Samsung stuff has been removed, so it's as clean and fast as possible. Camera works fine. In case someone else may need it, here's direct link.
Please note that I'm not the author of this firmware, not related to him in any way and not responsible for your flashing experience.

What about apps and interface? Except what is removed, everything else is all stock or anything replaced with 3rd party apps or other kind of mods? Because if so, it's not for me, I go for stock anytime.

Well, it looks like stock to me: http://pyaka.ga/litestock.png
Some Samsung apps and probably all settings are still there.
I've made some tweak using GravityBox, so clock, battery indicator does not look as they were initially.

Samsung stock camera won't work with lineage as far as I know. Open camera is fairly good, I prefer it to the lineage one.

Not as far as I know, might be worth a quick Google and see what the top camera apps for android are, and find whatever feels closest for you. I don't use WhatsApp to offer any comparisons.

I tryied that but all seems to be very laggy.
Stock is better then google camera (it's not about the rom lineage).
Whatapp camera, is perfect ! No lag at all.
Can anyone still just provide a link to stock apk please? I'd like to try it anyways and I screwed up as I was too eager to install the rom and forgot to pull the apk from the phone:/
