[T-Mobile LG G2x] monkeyrevenge:
Hey people, I got an G2X yesterday, it shipped with ginegerbread so I never got to try the original app, but I rooted it and tossed on the newest eagleblood rom and am loving the LG camera app so far. I thought to help out Id post bugs Ive noticed :D

it seems like "Macro focusing" doesn't work, and does the same thing as auto focus. When close to an object you see it focus properly and the "AF" shows up in the upper right and the image goes blurry and it takes the photo.

Continuous shot and stitch shot both crash the app in their own ways. Continuous locks up, and stitch closes the app when I try to use it.

And lastly I still can't get zoom while video recording to work. It says its zooming in and out with the little indication bar, but no zoom is actually occurring.

Can anyone else confirm they are having these issues as well?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tantan20171:
Welcome to the forum... and yes devs knows about all of this bugs..... also there's a froyo stock rom you can try out and you'll see why alot of people want the lgcamera rather than the stock gingerbread.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Schizoeffective:
Yea try eaglesblood 2.2.2 it looks like gb buts it froyo its an awesome rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c00lkatz:
I'm still not getting zoom while recording. I can zoom before I start recording, but once I start, if I try to zoom, the "zoom bar" comes up and moves left or right but the camera doesn't actually zoom. I played back the video thinking maybe it zoomed but didn't show up on the display, but unfortunately it did not zoom in at all.

Other than that and the FFC (which I don't use very often) it's doing pretty well. Thanks for all the hard work!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] motombo:
It broke swype on my phone as well. Says its not configured for my current device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
Your notes in the V1.4 changelog made my day today, lol. Sometimes you never now how you're gonna make someone else smile.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xantonin:
I may have found a bug.

Most of my camera settings are default, except I went to turn on "Location tagging"

When I did that, every 2 seconds the camera would fade out to black, then back in again. Almost like the GPS was taking too much juice. I'll test it a bit more, but turning off the option my camera was fine again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xantonin:
LOL... So I took a picture upright (phone not tilted in landscape) and then uploaded it to Google+ and it shows upside down. Just checked my gallery and it's upside down there too.

Using EB 1.07 (and whichever version of the LG Camera it has - how can I check?)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Thanks every one for providing bug reports. I will speak to Doniqq about the Cam and the reversed pikz in the gallery. I am working on reviewing the source ,bakedpotato is also helping so give him credit too.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Thanks pal
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xantonin:
It doesn't matter, his comments asking a developer to not use the words "fixed for real" is ignorant.

The minute you enter a modding community you should understand that development work is ALWAYS beta, even if it's an RC, even if it says "stable" and even if they call it the "final version".

Given that, and what I would call "common sense", it should then be obvious that mistakes happen when releasing something and thinking you actually fixed it. Many, many times in the programming world does a developer think they resolved a problem, only to find they either created another or that it happens under different circumstances.

As I mentioned before, knowing the above it should be EXPECTED for a developer to make statements such as "Fixed it for real this time, sorry the first time didn't work"

IT HAPPENS, even in the corporate and commercial environment. The verbiage used is irrelevant. If you're going to piss your pants over wording, then maybe you need to get off the internet and learn to read between the lines.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nucleartoasteroven:
Alright flak0 please change the title to something more like mod in progress so new people don't get confused. And let's not hate, the guy offered a suggestion and yes it was a noob/unreasonable one, but that doesn't mean we should hate on him for it. Suggestion rejected, clarification made, done. Let's drop it. This is a work in progress, and there are problems that people are working to iron out, so be careful and don't expect perfection. That's all that needs to be said, some 5+ page argument is totally unnecessary, so (flak0) please update the op and lets drop this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
I deserve no credit...just doing what anyone with any java knowledge can do ;)

As for progress...some stumpers. :(

And remember gentlemen...don't feed the trolls.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xantonin:
Was anyone able to confirm any problems with location tagging enabled? I posted about this issue earlier.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
Wow! !!!!!!!

I was working on some bugs since couple of hours ago what did I missed LOL

Back to topic for ppl that really been following this thread
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bspence415:
My front camera isn't straight
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Wow i am speechless. Siresh do me a favor and leave this thread and XDA. I swore Overground warned you like 30 pages back about posting here. Its funny how you talk i whine and all this BS. Honestly what have u contributed hmm nothing. Ur just like steve jobs, complain complain and then complain some more and try to screw people in the process. If your still reading do me a favor and leave. I hope u get perma-banned.

Now everyone else who stood their ground .thank u for the support. I will continue to work on this until we get it to the quality the froyo cam was. I know Doniqq will back me up on this one. Bakedpotato dude u deserve credit don't discredit your self bro. Again thanks everyone oh and siresh stop hanging from my $#@& =]
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Dude PM me i got a question for you. And an idea i am attempting i just need your expertise. I think it will solve everything for us
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tantan20171:
Why can't we be friends..... why can't we be friends .... why can't we be friends....why can't we be friends?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Ducter:
Mikey1022 cleared out the threads pertaining to this
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikey:
Siresh...take a few weeks away from XDA, cool off.

Learn how too communicate in a humanly manner.

Dont disrespect users of any title on xda by name calling or degrading them in any way.

I have warned you once, i dont warn twice.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tantan20171:
Thank goodness... back to topic flak0 hows the progress going?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nucleartoasteroven:
Yeah, back on topic. Has cm7 support improved at all?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ktaznangel:
Wow... So much flaming and I only stopped following the thread for a day. Reminds me of high school drama.

I would like to contribute $20 to the pot for the devs working so hard on this and for having to put up with the drama. you guys deserve more respect and more than what the pot has to offer considering the hours you put into this... But that's all I can offer for now. I'll contribute some more once the ffc is fixed.

Flako can you pm me how to donate? Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tantan20171:
same here flak0 send me the link to donate. Please.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
good day

1) if you spend anytime trying to help otu you deserve credit.

2)but the trolls look so hungry under that bridge how can you not toss them a bone.

3)that specific troll couldnt seem to catch the bone and now shows account diabled :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
Thank you kindly.

And indeed, ding dong the witch is dead :D

In other news, I am going on vacation. Don't worry, I'll have internets! In fact, I'll have plenty of time to mess around with this. :cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumaaneface:
did bounty get paid out yet? :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
I have to setup a bounty link because i dont want it going to my paypal as that wouldn't be fair, even though from there i can send money to everyone involved
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xantonin:
He could dish it out but couldn't handle taking his own medicine so he had to resort to the sad typical troll response of "I'm gonna say I didn't bother reading your post because I got pwned and can't make a good comeback all I can do is whine" :D

On a related note, I'd like to make a donation as well once my finances clear up. I feel guilty using this software and not contributing. I don't get how some people can buy a ton of applications but can't make a donation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
I just got issues with the camera app being really dark so its hard to see then the camera app icon is the same as the stock android one.. I'm using the rooted ota 2.3.3 rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bosshog187:
When you get this link set up can you let me know as well as I also would like to make a donation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
I just got issues with the camera app being really dark so its hard to see. then the camera app icon is the same as the stock android one.. I'm using the rooted ota 2.3.3 rom.. also since i never had froyo on my phone did the camera app ever have an option to select wide screen photos? i hate when it chops off the sides of the pics. but so far this camera app is way better then the stock android camera app. just wish the brightness was fixed so i can see the camera when i click the icon. its sooo dim lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jeep447:
I'm curious about this also..I'd be happy to be a guinea pig for testing if you guys need one so just let me know! I'd also like to thank the devs for hangin in there even though some people are completely ungrateful and clearly have entitlement issues. You guys are the reason all of this is possible for any of us and it's a shame some people are so ignorant they fail realize that. Unfortunately I'm unable to donate at the moment (nasty divorce..fun right? LOL) but if there's anything else I can do to help just let me know and I'd be happy to..Like I said I'm completely fine with using my phone as a tester if needed! :D

Sent telepathically using the new "Mind Control" app on the market...Didn't believe it worked until I tried it myself!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] frescoraja:
Qa

-I get the same black out every couple of seconds when location tagging is on..

-Also experiencing inconsistent orientation on still shots.. Seems to work ok sometimes others it doesn't.. I will look for a pattern but so far it happens more often than not, in all resolution modes and I think I've tried all scene modes too.

- zooming during video, the app doesn't crash but moving the zoom bar doesn't seem to do anything.

- swype is broken, says not configured for this device.. Again I ask: is this something that can be resolved relatively simply with root access?

Thanks for your continued efforts and I know you guys will get this thing perfected soon. once you do, is there any way for you guys to sell it on the market? I know I'd buy it. or maybe you could sell the code to LG or something...?

On a side note, I was on the phone with LG tech support and the csr guy told me I could download the lg camera app for gingerbread on the market.. Anyone know what he's referring to? I found an app called"lgcamera" but it's not by LG or anything like the froyo LG camera.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
This is app that the devs are working on is the actually lgcamera app from froyo. The devs are working countless hours to try porting it to gingerbread since LG shady a$$es didn't want to do it.

Apparently that cs Rep was blowing smoke because that app is far from the lgcamera app included with froyo.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
Why was the date in the Title changed? The post doesn't look any different. o_O
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Dude absolutley once I get around to messing with the CM7 Port again for the Cam. See the problem ultimately with getting the CAM to work on CM7 is not the libs. The libs actually play nice with CM7, the problem is in the framework as LGE and Immersion was missing. I tried porting them over to the framework.jar and then started getting null point exception errors in the logcat and after that I gave up for a bit and went back to focusing on perfecting the LG Cam for GB OTA.

So what I am planning to do is completely decompile the LG CAM, then start a new project in eclipse and build the Cam. That way making edits in the code will be easy and then anyone who has knowledge with github can jump in and help out.

Bounty Link Posted.. Most of the bounty will be paid to Jface :cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Yo when you guys get this at least 97% up and running, a donation from me will be made. This app is extremely important to me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
Basically what i've been doing...unfortunately the decompile brought the android.camera objects back to their lower level components (hashmap<e> heh...)so it's kinda hard to follow the code :D Plus the foo fighters are playing on the lollaplaooza live stream :cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Dude every lil bit counts. Thanks for your involvement. I actually fixed the upside down shots , all it took was to change the libnvomx.so to one from the OTA along with libnvcamara.so
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
OP UPDATED

Bugs list moved to the top of the OP . I will update as bugs are removed or found :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bls2633:
FlackO, thanks for changing the OP and putting the donate link up. I dont know if you read my PM to you or saw my earlier post but I have been trying to figure out who and where to donate to. You guys are doing awesome work and I know alot of us here are very appreciative of it. Im throwin in $20. to say THANKS
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingDavid63:
You said that you fixed the upside down gallery thing, is the new camera uploaded?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] death1246:
maybe bounties like these should be held by the forum moderator not a normal user...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
so does anyone else have the bug where the camera app is extremely low light? when using the camera i can barley see the screen and the whole ui is so low its like i turned my brightness down to 10%.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
What ROM are you using and do you have auto brightness on? I ask becuase I dont have this issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Not yet becuase I am not home and I want to test a bit more. I will work on this a bit tonight after 1:30 AM EST.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
I am new to establishing the bounty. Should I remove it then and have on of the mods do it?

Edit: Is there any reason why?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
hey flak0 i just want to say, i see what your doing big dawg, i appreciate what your doing i really do and dont worry about all that negativitey that dude was a scrub putting everybody down, but we all know your busting your balls on this project coming home at 130 am and working on this, dude thats crazy, lets get real not many people come home from work and do that so props to u and doniq, jface, baked potato and who ever else i missed , much thanx, keep doing what your doing brotha;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
im using the Gingerbread OTA 2.3.3 Rooted flashable zip v1.0.0.. yeah i got the auto brightness on and it seems to work fine but when i click the camera app it goes down to like 10% for some reason. idk if its because of the rom or the camera app makes my auto brightness trip out.

also im using the green signal fix ota mod and bloat remover and screen off animation if any of that matters.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
Allrighty, Foos are done playing so I built my modifications into the APK and pushing onto device...running...holy S**T I just alloc'd most of the vm's ram and fced the program. back to the drawing board :rolleyes:

edit: whoops...that was a silly infinite loop :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Hmm it may be the pure OTA thats causing the problem. Have you tried switching to EB or perhaps Weapon? I am using EB 1.07 and its working in terms of the phone brightness not dropping. Try that out and let me know.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Dude can you send me the source? Are you using eclipse? I think the FFC rotation was caused by the LIBS and not the app.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
yeah i didnt want to use another rom cause i love the stock gingerbread rom and ive had my phone for 4 days now and no reboots thank god lol. but ok i tested it without auto brightness on and it works perfect now. seems the app makes my auto brightness trip out on the rooted ota rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Your welcome bro. Thanks for that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
easy fix lol :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
yeah im happy now lol. ive only had this g2x for 4 days now and so far i love it. i got no issues so far. came from the sensation 4g best decision ive ever made lol.. hey do u know where i can get the optimus 2x weather app? ive been trying and everytime i install the app it never shows up in my widgets lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
hmm try the Optimus 2x forum here on XDA.

Also Battery life tip for you

Go into the dialer dial *#*#4636#*#* then click phone information then under

preferred network type chose GSM and WCDMA auto also in regular settings from the home screen goto network settings then under network operators choose TMOBILE UMTS or TMOBILE HSPA, thats if your on tmo lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingDavid63:
that optimus weather widget only works on cm7 not stock nothing...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
oh ok thanks. i was wondering why the crap wouldnt show up in my widgets lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
ok cool never knew about that number lol i changed to the gsm and wcdma then in network operators i see t-mobile umts and t-mobile gsm.. which one do u pick? it was on auto select before
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jeep447:
I'll be honest man programming is definitely over my head but I'm completely fearless with my phone so I'd test anything you can throw at me if needed! :D I can somewhat find my way around adb and I'm familiar with logcat so if there's anything I can do to help ya out just hit me up!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
UMTS. Idk if you read tmonews.com but there is a big battery drain issue , its b/c tmo spilt their operator that the phone uses to connect in 2 UMTS (4G/3g) and GSM(EDGE)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nucleartoasteroven:
Believe so too. I'm relatively new to this so I don't know much about libs and stuff, just writing basic apks without services or dependencies or anything, but if libs are shared, it makes sense that it's them causing the problem. Using CM7 nightly 97 (supposedly fixed FFC issues) oovoo FFC is rotated 90deg in the preview (never ends up getting through to the other side though) so this is probably the case

If you need a guinea pig for testing, I'm up for it. I'm familiar with logcat and might be able to help debug. Thanks again to you and all the other devs for all your hard work!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
i go on there every now and then but i never saw that before. thank a lot though for letting me know that. i did notice after about 30 mins off the charger my battery went from 100% to 93% and all i was doing is a few text messages and reading a few emails
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
try charging it up again and you will see a difference, also if your home WIFI makes a world a difference.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
Yeah, noticed your post. I'm trying to work on CM7 support ;) I'll try to set up a github or something soon but I can't figure out the git plugin for Eclipse Indigo
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
I'll try to keep you posted. :cool:

I'm going to be on a plane for 10 hours tomorrow this time and then Korea...anyone know LGE's address so I can break in and steal the source code for v21e? ;):D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
ok i will try.. i got 11% left till my phone dies lol.. but sometimes im on wifi. my house is really long so i can barley get a signal in my room.. i need a wifi extender but got no money for one lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wendellc:
Don't know what happened but I was running eb with LG cam preinstalled and camera was great. I went to weapon g2x and added LG cam 1.5 and suddenly my view on screen I dark like the stock cam although it was fine when I first flashed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
From a few posts back, wasn't the auto brightness buggy with the LG Camera app on ota froyo? I remember when ever I had auto-brightness on it made the camera all dark... just curious like reading all the progress I will donate as well when this is closer to being 100%
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wendellc:
I never had that problem on eb. Maybe its the way it was implemented. I adjusted brightness it helps a bit but looks grainy on screen. Is brightness setting for LCD viewing only or does it affect photos also?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
hey man

do me a favor. I told this little filly to wait for me at the pizza hut in Itaewon back in 1989. can you let her know im not coming back. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tantan20171:
Thanks for the donation link flak0.... as I promised I added a "small" amount to the loot..... hope you guys find more devs to join in...... again thanks :-)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
do you have a link to tmonews articular?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tantan20171:
I also noticed that this is the only 4g phone that never had a 3g.signal
[T-Mobile LG G2x] adevilfish:
i haven't seen a lot of posts on this but i've had issues with the auto brightness on 2.3.3 from first day I upgraded to it where it would flash lighter and darker intermittently. I never really tracked when and why with it because i usually prefer to just go manual on the brightness anyway.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Same here even though I didn't have the issue in the Cam.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
i had a question. so on the lg camera app when it was on froyo. was anyone able to record a video and able to turn on and off the flash without having to stop the video? jw cause my mytouch 4g and i think my sensation 4g was able to record a video and turn on the flash well recording. like if u were recording a video and u went to a room that was kinda dark u would wanna turn on the light so u can see then when u leave the room u can turn it off. i miss that feature a lot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
Quite the character sir! ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ghammond100:
Does this apply only to ota 2.3.3? I'm running EB 2.3.5 (CM7 based) and the closest option I could find that sounds like your instructions was "GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)". There is a "WCDMA Preferred" or "WCDMA only". Also under Network Operators I get 2 T-Mobile options but they do not have UMTS or GSM in the names. They both just say T-Mobile. Is that normal? Which should I choose.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Schizoeffective:
Is it possible to look at the code in the camera for the LG thrill and see similarities
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Very possible ;-)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Schizoeffective:
I can't think of any other LG phones with 2.3.3. Maybe you guys can get ur hands on an apk I've been looking can't find it. Maybe from one of the roms. On xda I think its called optimus 3d
[T-Mobile LG G2x] yodataco:
Unfortunately, the Thrill is still on 2.2 so even if the camera is similar, we would in the "same boat" as looking at the 2.2 LG Camera on the G2X..... :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Schizoeffective:
Geez no breaks. There has to be one running 2.3 with its own native cam
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Lets wait and see what bakedpatato and Doniqq may have fixed or found. I attempted at playing with different libnvcam.so and libnovomx.so from different ROMs but all produced similar results.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Schizoeffective:
Aight.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DanDigity:
Awesome job on the cam man! Bugs are unavoidable, but keep the updates and we'll keep flashing!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] prolyfyk:
Is anyone else having issues with taking green images. I've wiped everything and fixed permissions. Is there anything that I'm doing wrong? Phenomenal work none the less guys!!! Appreciate everything y'all are doing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bighulk666:
Every now-and-then in v1.5 when taking a photo it flips upside-down (180*).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thanasisc4:
What would happen if i were to flash the cm7 camera over an OTA-based ROM?
