ARE YOU SERIOUS ?

I will test.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
I also miss the LG camara app.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumaaneface:
Is this "pot" legit? I just need monies for a new battery cover :( not to sound greedy. Ill up a video with proof if need be
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c_brown93:
I think they are serious.

People REALLY miss the LG cam.

And you should upload the video so people know you are serious.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumaaneface:
I don't see why. Its nothing special. How many people use cams from the market with most phones anyways? YouTube video uploading....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c_brown93:
I personally loved it. The stock camera is too DARK. It bugs me. The LG camera took really nice pictures. And I never use market cams. Most dont have FFC support.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumaaneface:
Well....

Wonder how much of a troll I can be before a mod warns me?

Someone using cm7 message me. Haven't tested it on there. Jumaaneface at gmail
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
im confused

the lg camera app from froyo isnt in the market so im confused about you talking about cams from the market.????
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumaaneface:
I meant....don't most people use camera apps from the market?

Wasn't speaking about lg
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c_brown93:
He said how many people use cams from the market ? He didnt say it was on the market. He got the LG cam working on GB though.

They all done a good job on thus to begin with especially flak0 and yes the ffc is sideways when you look at it but the pictures show correct when taken so I'm gonna use with update or not, but yeah a fix would truly set it off, I'll be honest I can't believe we got this far.

You got the CM7 camera to work on 2.3.3 ?

If so could I try.CM7 camera takes way better pics and is brighter and doesnt flip pictures.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakedpatato:
Well technically I wrote my own camera app for android that's based off of the CM code...it's unusable because it infinite loops when i save a picture(aka fc after throwing a OOM exception) I'm doing a self code audit tonight ;)

I haven't been forthcoming with updates because my ANG (air national guard) unit got called up and I'm deploying(thankfully to Japan) soon and I've been getting my life in the US in order...Uncle Sam paid for my education and I gladly will serve but its a PITA canceling stuff, talking to my employer about my job(and how they're required by law rehire me when I come back) and dropping said bombshell on friends(no pun intended)

Technically the weekend ends on Tuesday @ 12am since it is a holiday weekend.

I am on my 2nd 12 oz redbull at work, Im drained and still have to drive 20 miles to my house when work ends at 1AM Est. My Camaro is loving all this driving lol anyways, the update will be up before 12AM Tuesday or approx 25.7 hours. =)

Happy Labor Day to all you hard workers out there, enjoy the beach and beer and babes tomorrow.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
kick ass.. so when u take pics in portrait its not upside down anymore? freakin sweet. thats the only issue i ever had with this camera app. thank you very much for ur hard work
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
YW , and yes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsauce75:
Does it work on cm7 now?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Unfortunately this will never work in CM 7. The reason is because the CM7 framework is extremely different. CM7 does not have the LGE in the framework.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
OP Updated with new version. Enjoy and report any bugs unless they are the ones in the bug list, then don't.

Hey guys has recording with front camera worked before in any other version? I just installed the 3.0 and all i get is green on the screen and shows my face but sll statiky and stuf like tht, i flashed to 1.5 and does the same. With front camera of course, but the back one everything seems to be working fine. If this has been answered already then soryr, i just noticed it on this version.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] albertorodast2007:
Read the OP, its still a bug, and only at VGA res, try QVGA or QCIF and the static and green squares are gone....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] starsie:
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR THIS!!! OMG FINALLY!!!

Words cannot explain how grateful i am! :D:D:D

P.C. My FFC is not squished and even though it's sideways it still shows the picture correctly.

I mean i hold the phone in portrait position, but i get a landscape FFC window showing correct non-squished portrait picture.

The picture is just cut a little from top and bottom.

So we are very close to getting it right!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BIGWORM:
So the RFC fully works? It's just the FFC that has a few bugs remaining?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZeroT| Demented:

Just like a ROM or custom kernel, copy to the root of external sd card, reboot to recovery, install zip from sd card, done... just as a precaution you can clear dalvik and cache before flashing and fix perms after doing it...

MAKE SHURE YOU HAVE A 2.3.3 OTA BASED ROM ( Not a CM7 or MIUI rom)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] derekedw:
Nice work so far everyone! Flak0, What's the FFC difficulty looking like? Not asking for an ETA or even an expectation this gets done. Just wondering if you think it's something we'll be able to look forward to.

Thanks again!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TiggerMan:
Hi guys - I've read all 87 pages of messages here (yes, for real) looking for help on how to install this camera. I've also read several of the cross-referenced posts, and quite frankly, I'm still having a hard time making heads or tails of what all I need to do to install this camera.

Right now, I am still on the stock FroYo that came with my phone. I would like to update (via the LG updater) to the stock GB.

All I want to do then is install this camera app. I don't wish to install other ROMs or root the phone or do anything that I don't need to really do.

I keep seeing phrases like "flash with clockworkmod" or "reboot to recovery" or "NvFlash blah blah blah), none of which makes sense to me. I have searched the App Market, and there are several apps made by Clockworkmod. Which one do I install? I'm guessing it's the ROM Manager, but that program needs root access. Isn't there a way to install the camera without root? I also can't find any program in the market called NvFlash. Is NvFlash a program or a procedure?

Sorry for the n00b-ness of the message, I'm an IT guy and I made a valiant attempt to read, read, read before I posted (hours worth...) but most of the "guides" I've seen are doing more than I really want, and worse yet, some of them seem to have circular steps.

So far, I'm guessing the process is something like this:

1) Install/update to GB

2) Root the stock GB install (yes or no? I would prefer no.)

3) Install some program made by Clockworkmod

4) Use some function of said program to install the camera.zip file

Feel free to respond via a post here, or send me a PM. Thanks for your help in advance!

Skip
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xkngofqnz:
youre gonna have to install to gb

then use nvflash to flash clockworkmod recovery to your phone which can be found in the thread the one that says RECOVERY

im pretty sure youre gonna have to flash a rom with root too

then place the lg cam zip on your sd card and install zip from clockworkmod recovery

Hey I just got the G2x almost a week now coming over from S4G.I'm running Weapon's G2x latest Rom ,I'm having camera issue .Ok when I take picture on portrait and go in gallery the photo sideway and small wth?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xsteven77x:
He's right. Even though the OP wants to just install this camera, there is no way of doing that without rooting and flashing a custom rom, sorry.

This new update has got me sideways when videocalling on qik. I'm on weapon g2x latest.

Any idea what changes caused it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] realtype:
@ Tiggerman

You actually don't need to root. I know because I was in the exact same predicament as you are now (except I already had GB installed), as you can see in my posts a few pages back.

I very carefully followed the intructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056847 on how to install cwm via nvflash, and simply flashed the zip file right after. I didn't flash a rooted rom to my phone, which is something I really didn't want to do due to limited modding experience, the terror of bricking my phone, and potential issues with future Android updates.

The only problem I ran into during this process was that for some reason cwm refused to mount my sdcard (which was brand new). I switched it for an old one I had and it worked though. I was able to load the zip to and flash it from that card, as well as create a backup of my phone state.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] noodles2224:
You can still keep youre official Gingerbread update from tmobile. Flash the cw recovery with nvflash (really simple) go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1255214

[ROOT] G2X Gingerbread 2.3.3. stock ROM with flashable zip in Clockworkmod Recovery and download both root and unroot zip files. Download the lg camera zip also.. Put them on your sdcard. Go into recovery, flash the root file, then flash the lg camera, then flash the unroot file. Then flash stock tmobile recovery with nvflash and youre good to good like nothing ever happened :) guarantee it works because my girl wanted the green signal bars instead of them being white. No need to flash roms. Anything can happen with these xda devs :)

if only ffc worked i would def switch to ota and use this

great job guys
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mrbo:
I've got a weird problem that suddenly cropped up with the LGCam 3.0 on EagleBlood 2.3.3. For some strange reason, when I launch the camera, it turns the backlight to the lowest setting making the screen extremely dark. When I exit the cam, it restores the backlight to it's original settings. I'm nearly certain it did not do this when I first upgraded to 3.0. Thinking that somehow my settings got hosed up, I performed a factory reset, but the cam still does has the problem. Has anyone seen this?

Update - Never mind, I figured it out. It looks like while I had the screen brightness turned to automatic, the camera (when launched) switches that setting to manual, and the default manual setting was the darkest one. After I cranked up the manual back-light setting, the camera screen now looks okay.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] derekedw:
I actually have gone back to 2.2 ROMs until this is finished. Google needs to take some Camera coding lessons from LG and Samsung and get the stock camera up to date.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aplsux:
I haven't read everything, I apologize. The only reason I am still on EB 1.09 is because of the camera. Am I given the understanding that this "restores" the LG cam on EB 2.0?

Nice signature :P
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aplsux:
haha... I like yours, too.

OK, I just read it more carefully.

THIS WILL NOT WORK ON CM7 OR ANYTHING BASED ON CM7/AOSP FOR NOW

Is EB based on CM7?

Answer - Yes: This is a (GRJ90) built 2.3.5 Gingerbread based off on the latest CM7 SOURCE with the spice of EagleBlood's touch and tweaks.

You'll probably get a 2.3.5 from lg before this would ever work. The framework just isn't there to get this working in anything aosp based. I just hope there is still hope got the ffc.

Any update in fixing the video and ffc??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Joe333x:
is there a way to remove camstart01.wav and camstop01.wav? I tried deleting them but it force closed so then I tried to replace them with black wav files but it still force closes. Some one in the o2x forum created a silent lg cam app, but im assuming the replacing the camera.apk wont work. I dont get why they allow you to turn the shutter sound off but then leave the annoying video recorder sound.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] frescoraja:
when you say you replaced them with blank wav files, did you create new wav files or did you edit the existing ones?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Joe333x:
I just used a blank one. Do you think it would work if i edit the exsiting ones? In the o2x forum it says that there is a security in the files and you need to actually edit the camera app code for them to be edited and not cause a force close.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DJChameleon:
LG Camera Low Light Performance

I don't know if it is my imagination but it seems to me the low light performance than when I used the stock Froyo camera. I'm a DJ and take many pictures during my shows so this is critical to me. Even my HD2 with cyanogen, my G2 with Cyanogen and my myTouch 4G with stock Sense camera all take brighter pictures during my shows when I turn of the flash on all these phones. Is my memory of how this camera worked on stock Froyo better than it really was or am I right that the low light performance has been sacrificed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jonhdoe1000:
you are right,

i also noticed it.

for some reason the quality of the picture and especially the exposure and focus are different with this version as compared to the froyo stock.

in fact, i was very happy with the froyo camera and very disappointed from the camera after the gingerbread upgrade.

I have tried many many camera sw but no one comes close to the froyo one :-(

[T-Mobile LG G2x] shovelhead83:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] frescoraja:
Assuming what zerotdemented said is true, flak0 gave up due to negative feedback. I have a feeling it had more to do with the progress he was making (or lack thereof) but silence is usually tacit agreement..

let's practice some simple logic..

Assume if p then q is true. In this case, p is "flak0 gets negative feedback" and q is "flak0 quits". the contrapositive, if not q then not p is also logically true, ie "flak0 doesn't quit if he gets positive feedback." I'll let you draw your own conclusions, but this project was doomed from the start.. i think i might know how he got his handle now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Hy

Very well said sir. I actually did make progress and had it 98% bug free but then the negative BS started. My next project if i feel upto it is to find the root cause of flash playing erratically on CM 7+ based Roms
[T-Mobile LG G2x] princeasi:
Flak0 i give you much props for work and effort, but, dropping a project because of a few stupids is just ridiculous and weak. Last I saw, there just as many, if not more, positive incentives from the community then negatives to continue this project. Personally it doesn't matter as much to me anymore because I've moved on to the sgs2. But I'm sure a lot others would love for you to continue what has been started here..... I'm just sayin!
