No me joda flak0! Mano si estaba asi de cerquita de tenerla al 100%!! Hechese un su descansito si quiere, pero no le ponga coco a esos trolleros idiotas que solo tienen kk en sus cabecitas... Lo que pasa es que a los pobrecitos ni en su casa los aguantan y vienen a descargar su frustracion aki... pero solo imaginese tener esa camara en un ROM basado en AOSP/CM!! Seria un lujo mano! Pero si es su decisión se le respeta.... Un saludo hermano, cuidese :)

That has been a major frustration for me from the start in this thread. Some very smart people are trying to do things to help us, and are not even demanding payment in return. Of course donations are great if you can afford it, but the vast majority here use the hard work of others for free and still ***** about it. It makes no sense.

flak0 come back. I will beat the whiners and complainers into submission for you.

just kidding thanks flak0 great work so far hope you continue it.

just remember the complainers ussually are the ones that have never developed a thing and have no idea how much time it takes or the frustration of build after build tying to get 1 thing to work.

Amazing work so far.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jkhrist:
Anyone having problems with dark picture ? Its not so bad as far as the regular cam app the pics look okay and the flash compensates somewhat. The problem I am.having is that with certain video chat apps the camera is super dark like I was sitting in a dark room this does not happen with my vibrant, which has no flash. Any insights it solutions to this problem?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Joe333x:
Awesome news, i hope your able to come out with another update! I still use 3.0 over stock android cam which doesnt even compare to your version of lg cam even with the bugs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deadstyle:
Much appreciated, I would be willing to help test. Running EB as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
I'm pretty sure him saying "that he will need testers" is cause he is on a cm7 based ROM, meaning he needs some people on a 2.3.3 based ROM. Not positive but pretty sure.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] spike378:
does v3.0 works with eagleblood 2.3?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] starsie:
NOT TRUE! EB 2.3.5 is CM7 based. EB 2.3.3 is stock (and i'm using it with 3.0 cam)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
You get the 2.3 wrong.

EB 2.3 is the EB version before 2.4 which is CM7 based.

EB stocked based's latest is EB 1.0.9.

Now tell me, which is not true?

Nope still there, haven't tried gtalk... but FFC still sideways... but ROM is awsome! Rock solid, fast as hell! Batt life is awsome! I wonder wich optimizations did LG made to it... and hope someday they release the source code
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zgjbeta:
I may be wrong on this but as i understand it LG handed the source code to T-Mobile and T-Mobile has asked Cyanogen to do work on it. This may be half true all true or very little truth ..Google is always a good place to start tho.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
flak0, if you have time, pls send me a pm or drop me a message on twitter, http://twitter.com/junmar4sale I have VERY GOOD NEWS for you with respect for this cam!!!

Edit:

I need testers. Can someone test the LG Cam I kanged???

Thanks...

Edit 2:

Tested on 2.3.4 build, FFC is working but it is upside down. Gtalk(FFC is sideways) , YM, Skype works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
So.... same problems.... the sideways cam has to.have some solution.

Update 3:

Tested on 2.3.3, Camera FFC still has the same issue, the one with green tint.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FeloHFP:
i dont know if this erelevant but if you go to 1809#*999# device test > camera test > secondary camera test. It looks diferent to the ffc video on the camera app

All contribution is important. I think a better way to put this would be, what improvements does this offer over the existing LG cam?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Has anyone figured out the FFC camera issue yet? I ported a from from the LG-L95G, colorized with colors and icons from the LG UI from the new P990 GB and also ported the LG Camera from the new P990 rom. On my rom the FFC is upside down. I have searched on Google and this seems to be a very common problem. If someone figures it out if you guys could post the result on the thread for my rom I would appreciate it very much.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisdepew:
So does this zip work completely now?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] starsie:
And you came to that conclusion based on WHAT???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
what did you contribute????:confused::rolleyes::confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] frescoraja:
I'm a little confused.. Jboxer: LG recently released a 2.3.4 update for the optimus 2x that included a camera app similar to the one they put into the froyo build for the o2x and g2x? And it had the exact same issues (ffc rotated, green blocks, etc) as the one flak0 has been working on porting from froyo here in this forum?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
No that is not correct. On the P990 the cam app works perfectly from what I have been told. From what I understand Flak0's port has the FFC sideways (I have never tried it). On my port from the P990 the FFC is inverted 180 degrees and I have seen no issue with any green blocks (what is that?). Our apks are not the same. You can check that out with md5 checksum. My files all came from the P990 2.3.4 rom. I believe his files came from the Froyo rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] speedy00002:
ok, on the 3.0V I having problems. The cam seems to be ok just like the video but the front facing is not working at all really. is that what you working on now?

LG Cam v3.0 doesn't seem to work on Don's EaglesBlood 2.4...keeps on Force Closing...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] starsie:
Read carefully - OTA TYPE ROMS ONLY!!! There is no such thing as an OTA 2.4 rom for G2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Okay, I've been playing with this a bit on the 2.3.4 "Tracfone" build.

I seem to be able to get the Camera.apk from the P990 2.3.4 build working with all the libraries Tracfone 2.3.4 build. The image is UPRIGHT and not squished or distorted. All would be well - except when you rotate the phone, the image rotates the wrong direction.

Now, I'm convinced the fix for this is in Camera.apk itself. The reason for this is, with these exact same libraries, the AOSP 2.3.4 cam from the Tracfone build works correctly. Swap out ONLY the Camera.apk, and video goes wrong.

Unfortunately, it does not seem to want to let me edit Camera.apk. For some reason, if I simply decompile the APK and recompile it without even making any edits, it will force close claiming it can't find resources that are there. Not sure why.....

If others have already been down this road, I apologize. It's just that *normally* I can bust open an APK, make edits, and put it back together. Been doing it for a while now... This one just refuses to submit and I'm not sure why.

EDIT: Actually... I think this is big progress... Just tested QIK Video and it is oriented correctly. Need to test Google Talk & Skype, and all other camera features. Having FFC wrong only in the Camera app would be a huge improvement.

But don't get exited *JUST YET*... Panorama shot has the wrong sensor orientation as well :(... so Camera.apk still needs fixed up.

EDIT 2: Okay, think I just figured out why I can't recompile Camera.apk properly and solved that. So, on to the hacking!

Another note (since I don't like to stack replies): If I get this working on 2.3.4, I'll see also if it works on 2.3.3 - hopefully it will.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
The LG cam in my rom is from the P990 as all are the libraries. You have changed nothing. The camera works normally as a camera or video camera. Nothing is squished or distorted in my build. The only think that is not working correctly is FFC (Front Facing Camera) which is upside down. This can only be fixed in the kernel, not my editing the apk; which I have alread decompiled and recompiled and tried.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Actually... the FFC issues CAN be changed in the Camera.apk. I thought the fix would have to be in the kernel, but apparently not. I think LG must have fixed some of the libraries in the L95G build and we have been over-thinking this. I'm actually using the L95G libraries. Don't believe me? Try the FFC on the stock camera and ONLY change the Camera.apk and things move around. It was still taking flipped pictures with the FFC when you used the LG Cam though. I have fixed that - in the APK. Have also tested Google Talk and it is oriented correctly in 0, 90 and 180 degrees, but not in 270 (but who holds the phone upside down to video chat?) The only thing left now messed up is the landscape previews in the Camera.apk itself. Since those previous are NOT messed up with the stock Camera.apk, I am certain the fix is in Camera.apk, not the kernel - at least with the L95G libraries.

EDIT:

Okay, more work... it appears things are more mixed up than I thought... Some apps get the correct orientation, and some don't. Considering I'm using the STOCK L95G libraries, I find that odd. I think, honestly, that even real camera app developers don't know which way is up.

EDIT 2:

Looks like the problem (as others have probably already realized) is either in the kernel or more likely libcameraservice.so... The kernel would be hopeful, as there's a chance of a fix even on the 2.3.4 build. libcameraservice.so, not so much, as it would require AOSP code which may not work correctly with the rest of the build.

It seems that the camera logic coming from the driver itself is reversed, even when using stock drivers. The AOSP camera and some other apps correct for this. The older LG Cam does not. I have hacked some fixes into the Camera.APK such that it can now take photos in correct orientation, but some issues remain. I'm personally calling it 98% (whereas it was at 95%) and done.

I'll post files for 2.3.4 builds by the end of the weekend along with documentation of what I found in case anyone wants to pick up where I left off. It won't work on 2.3.3, which may be another reason to upgrade to one of the 2.3.4 builds by JBoxer or myself.

That happens to any significant developement thread. Its a given. What I see more is the 100's plus people who can't live without it. That's what makes a developer, taking the positive over the negative. =) if everybody stopped after getting a bunch of negative pm's, well their wouldn't be much around here. Its the stupid people who voice their opinions compared to the content people that it works just fine for.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
I to commend you on your attempt to fix the camera, but honestly I find it hard to believe your reason for discontinuing. I think you've gone as far as you can with it, that's all.

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Honestly, the camera *can* be improved further, but it's more work than most people realize. I played with it for a while and decided that it's not worth it. It can take a whole day just to tweak a few settings, and then you find something else has shifted due to what you edited. What's the benefit of that? Even with donations, if you've spent a 40 hour week fixing it, you're not likely to get 40 hours worth of "pay" through donations. And in the end, you have a slightly better camera, assuming everything's been fixed, than you had to begin with. And, if there's a single flaw, as flak0 said, you get dozens of pm's complaining.

If the camera didn't work at all on GB that would be one thing, but this is really about just a few features that most people really could either live without or replace by just downloading a different camera from the market.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ke4peo:
Heck, I'd be happy with the stock cam if they would just give us the ability to zoom using the volume up/down. Sucks having to tap the screen and drag the slider.

That's one of the reasons I threw the LG Cam on there. Just about everything I use the camera for works. Yeah, I'd love to see the FFC working completely...but, I don't video chat that often and if I do, I can just flash the stock cam back for those times. :)

As the previous post says, you want to use the version listed in the Tsugi Addons...

My question is, will the cm7 camera work on OTA based roms?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Yes, i'm sure further improvements can be made to this app. I was basically stating that, it appears to me, working with this app eventually became a tedious task to flak0, and at some point, he threw his hands up. Much props for his attempt. It's just hard for me to believe that he got sooo emotional (like a woman on her period) because of a few complaining members, that he decided to punish everyone and all those who supported by dropping the project. That's all!

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
That is truly an ignorant and asinine statement. Devs work hard for no pay for the benefit of others. Nobody has the right to whine or complain. I fully understand the dev's desire to just give it up. The whiners and crybabies are not worth the grief to continue working on a project like this. When you change a value to fix one thing two other things break. If people were polite, instead of rude and condescending, maybe he would have been encouraged to keep working. If you think he was like " got sooo emotional (like a woman on her period)" then you continue working on this project and see how you like the responses from the whiners, babies and morons. Give the devs a break and stop making uncalled for and inappropriate comments such as this.

I said I FIND IT HARD to believe that he got emotional like a woman on her period." which means I don't believe he allowed the negative input from complainers to sidetrack his progress.
