It's been said to leave the program alone when you stop video recording for a few seconds. It should go back to normal. I don't have any problems with freezing.

Try turning off auto review and see if it works.

LG Camera hangs

Turned off auto review and waited a few seconds, no hang. But FC when I switched back to still camera.

Then went to settings and turned auto review back on. Now all seems to be working correctly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] desynch-:
I guess I sorta fixed that issue for you. Lol.

owain94 in the following pages actually posted the camera with "updated" libs.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21960785&postcount=1660

I fixed my front facing camera being upside down by replacing the libcamera.so from the flashable zip with the libcamera.so that I got when I updated my baseband to March 11 2012. Just an FYI for those who updated that want to try this.

Mod works perfectly fine on stock 2.3.4 that was available by LG recently.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sambodie:
Yes, thanks. You never know what will work. My FFC appears to be working OK. with the file from the OP's post. Not sure what I would get to use the one from January.... an option should this one hang again.

I am coming back from ICS as I have needed a working camera recently. Waiting for some additional work on the new 2.3.4 release to see if the BB exclusivity issue can be cracked. If you are foolishly optimistic, that one day release was a dry run for the G2x ICS update :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SyntekSystems:
What exactly did you do to get it to work? I might update my girlfriend's phone to stock 2.3.4 and wanted to know what you did to get the camera to work on that rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] desynch-:
All I did was:

Update the phone to 2.3.4.

Reinstall CWM.

Downloaded owain94's version of the LG Camera from the link I posted.

Made a copy of the 2.3.4 libcamera.so under /system/lib.

Install lg camera's zip from CWM.

Put back the 2.3.4 libcamera.so into /system/lib

Do not touch the auto review after you put back the 2.3.4 libcamera.so, otherwise you'll have to do it again. It won't record video and will FC.

where can I find GB libcamera.so file? I already flashed LG camera.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] desynch-:
When you first flash the v21y baseband, you get a new set of libs.

Before flashing the LG Camera, go to /system/lib and copy the new version of "libcamera.so" and put it somewhere.

When you flash the LG Camera in the .zip, the old libcamera.so is pushed into /system/lib.

Basically take the new libcamera.so you copied elsewhere and replace it with the old one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
I already flashed the old LG cam yesterday. Thatswhy i was asking if you could sent me the file?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dimension2035:
I would like everyone try LG camera app from the store specially if you take video. try the free version first before you buy the pro version.

You can record video file format in 3GPP or MPEG4 with video encoder H.264 H.263 or MPEG4 with video bitrate from 100Kbits to 30Mbits which is higher than stock.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] spitswap:
still kind of new to the G2X so can someone explain to me why the LG camera is so good.

I bought mine used with 2.3.3 I believe and have EB 2.7 on it right now. Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mrsixonetwo:
Im using 2.3.3 as off now and wondering why this works better on cm7 vs 2.3.3. It worked perfect on cm7 but now the front cam is sideways
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dimension2035:
Today Installed cm7 7.1.0.1 stable. and installed LG camera for cm7. when i booted and went to the camera the first thing i notice is instead of it saying front camera and back camera it says back camera, back camera. Selecting one of them gives you the front camera. I notice with the cm7 camera it increases the main camera but makes the front camera a bit laggy without it or when install stock OTA GB cam the front facing camera operates at about 24-30fps.

The only problem is video chatting. OOVOO does not support CM7 and skype wont show my front facing camera. So i reverted back to Stock 2.3.3 with LG cam.With stock 2.3.3 and lg camera the main camera app front camera is sideways but with video chatting its flawless, its butter smooth.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
But how is the picture/video quality between the two? I've noticed that the HD video is flawless and picture color, and focus have been substantially better using this cam mod.

Pin it to Win it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dimension2035:
Maybe he added some salt to it because even tho its a port from 2.2.2 it works better then 2.2.2's back and front facing camera.

In 2.2.2 the front facing camera would operate at 10fps-15fps and in GB 2.3.3 with LG camera port the camera works at 30fps...butter smooth. Even tho in the main camera app the front camera is sideways, when video chatting it looks fine. I do not use LGcam 3.0 cause it makes the video laggy. But I have not tested it fully.

How ever If you do vlogs/youtube vids I would Highly recommend getting LG camera from the market. It allows you to set a higher bit rate for the video, removing blocky artifacts and dramatically improving the video's quality.

So LG cam 1.5 + Market "LG camera" = Love
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyhamada:
Quick question about the market LG cam...are you saying you recommend installing it along with this port/mod of the real LG cam? If so, what is the benefit of that? Is it just that I can change the data rate of video capture?

Sorry for the silly questions, just a little confused.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] timmyjoe42:
Is this a fix just for the video camera or does it give the still camera a boost also?

Is this a ROM mod?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noahk423:
Yes, you flash this, it is a mod and replaces the cm7 camera with the Lg camera which has a lot more features and looks better.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ssuds:
I just flashed the the LG Camera from the OP and it's working fine for me, everything is oriented properly and video recording works. Is there any need for me to mess with the libcamera.so at all if it's working fine?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ssuds:
I'm having trouble rebooting my phone ever since I installed this file. When I go to the power menu and hit reboot, the screen shows Rebooting... and hangs. I end up having to pull the battery. I can confirm 100% that this is because of the camera because it was working fine before I installed the camera, I took a nandroid right before I installed the camera app because I suspected it was the cause of the problem, and restoring from it I am able to reboot fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] justjackyl:
I don't understand how people are having so much trouble with this. I've used it with every ROM I've ever flashed and have never had to do anything other than flash the zip and go.

Don't know if this makes a difference, but anytime I use it, I flashed it at the same time I'm flashing my entire setup instead of later after the ROMs already been in use.

Hi everyone. I did search the forum for Make of Samsung phones but the ones I could find were the V/S or differences etc between Made in Korea/Made in China.

I have read (here and on other forums too) some people praising Made in Vietnam Samsung phones and some bashing it with the color banding issues (and no other issue). Whereas couldn’t find much hate for Made in Korea. Although majority had Korean versions.

All I want to know is that which make out of the two is better, in terms of the one which doesn’t have many issues. I do understand that the company has strict policies and all factories have to adhere to it to make the products uniform. Having said that, but not to forget, Samsung has also mentioned that their Vietnam factory gets the least number of returned phones.

People who have owned and have experienced the two makes, please respond here.

I expect people who own neither of the two, not to respond, as bashing will do no good to anyone. Although positive criticism is always accepted.

Thanks.

I have tried the s-pen myself with 2 units. What I found was that you need to hold the s-pen in, say between 45-90 degree angles. If you hold it too low, say somewhere around 20-25 degree angle, the pen won't work properly. (As in it won't be accurate)

laughing at the comments....literally!!

Ive had a Korean N7000 and bought my new Vietnam N9005 while my dad bought a China made G900FD (all of them are original phones, not knockouts or clones)

NON of them have problems whatsoever! Works like a charm.

My N7000 was marketed for Singapore, while made in Korea.

My N9005 is marketed for Australia, while made in Vietnam.

My dad's G900FD is marketed for Russia, while made in China.

All of them work great and flawless, black clipping or black ink is an outcome of the AMOLED battery saving method (black pixels are off-thing) Which was also in my Korean Note 1 (N7000) but I never cared much. It only showed significantly when I watched a darker scene of a movie or something similar. Its greatly reduced in my Note 3 (N9005) to almost gone 99.9%, which is made in Vietnam.

And basically my Dad's China-made S5 Duos (G900FD) and my Vietnam-made Note 3 performs same on specs and display and everything else, no ram issues, no color bands, no S-Pen issues in my Note 3. Non of those problems appeared in my previous Note 1 either. S-Pen off-focus was an under-developed scenario in Note 1, which also gave the option to pick left or right hand user. While that option is removed and unified in Note 3, the pen is also more focused, and the display is also now more closer to the glass, which also affect over writing angle.

Coming to the point, I dont think manufacturer country means anything. Every factory can produce 1 faulty device for every 20 good devices, so and so.... its the nature of automated (or even semi/manual) production lines plus the luck of the owner who gets which.

P.S. in general, I think there is a logic behind the fact that, every county uses the standard manufacturing procedure, although "some says" production materials used in countries like China are a little lesser in quality. This was widely talked about when deciding the best country for Nokia phones back in days, like Finland, Hungary, China, Dubai, etc.

But atleast for Samsung, I dont see any bad material differences in any of em.

Or is it that "I was lucky, I am lucky and my Dad is also lucky"??? :laugh: Who knows right?:cool:
