Hey everyone I am trying to use the video mod, so my question is can it be flashed on a flex rom or are flex roms supposed to already include the playback speed changing feature? I am on AEONFLEX and the stock video player doesn't have the option for slowing down the video and I tried flashing the mod and it was successful but I still can't slow down the video, any help will be appreciated

Sent from LG-G2 D800 on AEONFLEX 4.4.2

[G2 Android Development] 60nine:
you won't save much with that... it would save you around 500kb per image, not worth a mention...
[G2 Android Development] oc_masta:
Blasphemy...just lower the resolution in your camera and keep the quality.
[G2 Android Development] Giocarro:
Well, let's put it this way: I always use 8Mpix resolution, with stock LG camera pictures weight around 1.3MBs while with this mod they are nearly doubled.

Is the stock camera using a so damn low JPEG quality, or is something else the culprit?

Hi, last night I installed the mod and today I found out that Knock ON is not working at all while Knock OFF is working fine. Someone else faced similar problem?

I rooted last night too, Kitkat stock 4.4.2. Installed through recovery.

I don't think it's related to this mod.

but anyway: in dialer -> 3845#*802# -> settings -> update touchscreen firmware.

[G2 Android Development] sarathvenmony:
ooops my bad
[G2 Android Development] sqlpro:
old version

Hi guys

I am currently open EURO 80220d on my D802 and just wondering if its safe to install v2.2.1 ? from what i read from last few pages , i see that lot of you having audio issues with latest version.

Thanks for the advise.

BTW previously i used v2.2.1 which worked nicely on 80220a but not sure if its safe to install after new updated ROM.
[G2 Android Development] bender_007:
Will work on 20d nicely
[G2 Android Development] nic85:
The latest version has audio problems, At least with stock 20D
[G2 Android Development] kerempek:
After installing this it fixed my problems. Also Picture quality and video quality seems nice in low light also no fucusing issue in video. I didn't try IA for now but as i understood xdabbeb congifured it for daylight photos but faster focus. I will try IA tomorrow in daylight.

Thanks.
[G2 Android Development] xdabbeb:
You wouldn't want to (if your signature is correct and you have a VZW G2)...stick with the original as it has the newest binary. This version is only for those with the 10 Codebase per OP.

Also, for those that were asking...I tried another method to achieve 120fps at 720p and it still doesn't work. I know the hardware is technically capable of it, but the drivers for our particular phone aren't for now.
[G2 Android Development] lemach:
No FC with d10 test version and also there is no focus issue while focus a stand objet.

Thanks a lot!
[G2 Android Development] nic85:
what about 4k? Galaxy note 3 has same soc and can handle it :p

d10 test works good :good:
[G2 Android Development] woof123:
If the photos will be as good as S4 octa,this will be more than enough for me.This phone still has the edge,but G2 can be as good too :)
[G2 Android Development] nic85:
someone knows the default value of this?

[G2 Android Development] gonk24:
That's your fault for not following the OP and backing up. What you are asking for was laid out right there for you. If you are willing to flash things onto your device, at least take the time to read the OP and learn basic backup procedures. No one should be flashing anything from the dev section unless they know these things.

Test builds works fine here, getting better quality photos as compared to 1.1
[G2 Android Development] levelone:
Same here, 1.2.0 works perfectly on my 10A, will test drive it first thing tomorrow morning with the sunlight. Low light Standard mode looks much better, IA mode is always spot on.

[MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] Thanks a lot for your effort! Now, wouldn't it be nice if we could link the focusing point with light spot metering? Sammies do that... but again, i may be getting greedy! Crossing my fingers for 4K goodness as well... :P
[G2 Android Development] insang-droid:
I did a manual install of this. I don't have a recovery installed. I could not find an app that did this for you without recovery like TWRP

Manually made a backup copy of all the files then used Root Explorer app to copy files over and reset the permissions.

I did notice on mine that when I copied \system\vendor\lib\hw\sensor.msm8974.so it rebooted my G2.

Im using Verizon G2 rooted.
[G2 Android Development] bd1212:
So is IA only supposed to be used for daylight shots, or is it good for night shots as well? The flash can be turned on when using IA, right? It's just not automatic like it is in normal mode. Or am I completely wrong?
[G2 Android Development] uoY_redruM:
I'm on D80110C and have had zero issues with the old release from this morning.
[G2 Android Development] Zoide_:
I volunteer to test a version for CyanogenMod 10.2. BTW, I tried to install the latest 1.2.0 version and I could no longer boot CM.
[G2 Android Development] xdabbeb:
[MENTION=1545532]nic85[/MENTION] Is that in the HiddenMenu somewhere? I don't know what the default is off the top of my head, but it could probably be figured out. Have you changed it already?

[MENTION=3768519]gonk24[/MENTION] If you flash the CB10 test version in the OP you should be fine. Backups are always a good thing though :)

[MENTION=1204508]levelone[/MENTION] Spot metering would be awesome, I agree. I'll look into how feasible it is with this app.

[MENTION=5453900]insang-droid[/MENTION] many binaries can't be replaced while the OS is running without causing a reboot, unfortunately. You found one of them

@bd1212 IA mode has been limited to a 1/15 shutter speed, so it won't let in as much light as night mode which can go down to 1/6

[MENTION=2542949]uoY_redruM[/MENTION] So the original 1.2.0 worked fine? If so, that's good info to have, thank you.

I just did a quick pass at getting 4k working, and did get mediarecorder and stagefrightrecorder to accept 3840x2160, but the Camera still bombed on it. I didn't spend too much time on it though, so I'll give it another try when I have more time. I realize the SoC and sensor are capable of doing it, but that doesn't necessarily mean LG allowed for it. Hopefully it can be done.
[G2 Android Development] xdabbeb:
Yeah, I would imagine many of the binaries included would make CM go all wonky. I haven't had the time to get to AOSP/CM testing yet, but I will eventually.
[G2 Android Development] gonk24:
Meant for someone else? I backed up before flashing anything, regular 1.2.0 works perfect for me. Sprint LS980 must be base 11.
[G2 Android Development] xdabbeb:
oops! Yes, it was meant for the person you were replying to but I copied the wrong name when I was writing my reply. Sorry, dude. Yes, the Sprint variant is on an 11 codebase I believe.

[MENTION=4181954]kerempek[/MENTION] see my post above...it was meant for you.
[G2 Android Development] Hapsnykel:
This app is a BIG improvement on stock, thanks for a great job.

I still suffer insanely from blurry photos as soon as anything moves even the slightest when taking a photo though, wonder why that is - normal mode should have the fastest shutter speed, right? Or at least sufficient for taking normal everyday photo where people arenth posing.

Hope someone understands what i mean, i am no camera expert. :D

Is there anything else i can do to minimize blurryness from movement? I would take a hit in overall image quality if only i could take photos of the kids when they are moving and playing without getting a completely useless photo out of it.
[G2 Android Development] screenager:
try IA mode! it is limited to a higher shutter speed. so capturing movement should be improved compared to normal mode.
[G2 Android Development] adrenalin100:
Hi colleagues) how work the latest 1.2.0 ,better 1.1.1?changes there?)

it is not SLR camera for sports shooting))) I think better pay attention to video 30 and 60 fps .photo very good for the camera phone )Why demand the impossible?
[G2 Android Development] Hid3rs:
What kind of audio problems? Quite frankly, the recorded audio always sucked on the G2, but it has nothing to do with this mod. I'm on stock 20D, the audio is OK.
[G2 Android Development] sqlpro:
from my reading last 2 pages, no of people seem to be having audio issues ! so its fine for you ?

do you know if i can flash different versions if one doesn't work OR do i need to restore nandroid before flashing another version ?
[G2 Android Development] hamba9551:
Can Someone please help me..;)

1)Whats different between this 2 variants?

a)xdabbeb's camera v3.1.0 - for all stock KK ROMs

b)xdabbeb's camera v3.1.0 - quiet

2) If im using CloudyFlex 2.2, do i need to flash xdabbeb's videoplayer v1.0.0?

3) how do i check my versions still 3.0.0 or 3.1.0?

ive read others mentioned CF 2.2 included this mod..but i checked ROM CF 2.2 uploaded date on 1st may and this camera mod 3.1.0 uploaded on 5th may..how come CF 2.2 included this 3.1.0 mod?

Thanks.. :)

MOD EDIT: 2nd post not needed.
[G2 Android Development] xdabbeb:
I have no audio issues either, and until someone provides more detail/info than what they have thus far there isn't anything I can do about their problem. Simply stating you have a problem isn't very helpful.
[G2 Android Development] subhani:
Exactly... also what hid3rs was saying. I know G2 audio not great but this is always the default case and not a result of this awesome mod. Xdabbeb camera had nothing to do with it.

Deleted... I respect the OP and don't want things derailed.
[G2 Android Development] XxZombiePikachu:
1)the main mod is the 3.1.0 and for most versions xdabbeb releases a quiet version which is to be flashed after the main mod and what it does is eliminate the sound for capturing pictures and videos

2)if the video player in cloudyflex already has the ability to slow down the 120 fps videos there is no reason to flash the video player mod

3)that's a good question

Yes cloudyflex 2.2 includes the latest version and you should know that cloudyfa and xdabbeb have worked together in different occasions with the camera mod which could mean he has early access to what's coming and permission to put in his roms

[G2 Android Development] XxZombiePikachu:
If you are on stock and are planning on using the 120 fps slow motion video capture option and want to play it back in slow motion on your device then you will be the video player mod

Sit in a dead quiet room, open the cam and take some video of the ambient noise, whisper quietly or make a soft sound. Play back the video, you will hear the audio drop/glitch in and out.

This is an LG issue and what I assume they are talking about.

The issue is, audio noise cancelation isn't being disabled when taking video. It should be enabled for calls, but not when recording audio/video.

Sent from my LG-D801
[G2 Android Development] xdabbeb:
Only if you're using a rom that doesn't already have the capability to slow playback down below 1/2 speed...which basically is just stock G2 roms. G Pro 2 ported roms don't need it, and I showed Cloudy how to enable it for his Flex rom so that also has it. There's actually no need to install anything (cam or video) on any of his roms currently as they already have the latest.

Thank you for going into more detail, but this is what I (and Hid3rs/subhani) figured people were referring to and it has been beaten to death in this thread. I know you weren't suggesting so, but for everyone else: There is nothing in the mod that has anything to do with the audio. It's the same with the stock camera and it has been this way since the G2 debuted last year. LG has applied noise reduction across the board on this phone and you either turn it off globally (which means in phone calls as well) or you live with it. As I've said many times, if/when I have the time to look into it I will, but there are many other things that are a higher priority for me. I'm sure people will keep bringing it up, and I don't mean to be short, but this really has been brought up dozens of times and I won't discuss it any further until I work on it. Thanks.
[G2 Android Development] sqlpro:
Thank you for your replies. if you've time please add this info to OP so atleast some people stop nagging you about this issue.
[G2 Android Development] xdabbeb:
Thank you for the suggestion, but speaking from experience it wouldn't matter if I put it in 36pt red font in the OP :) I also don't feel it belongs there as it isn't even related to the mod.
[G2 Android Development] abdel12345:
Just confused b on one thing. Why is the slow motion at a lower fps. (I know nothing about cameras and just like yours mod but I'm just curious). It works great but I was thinking that wouldn't it work better if I used the higher quality video at higher fps but that turned out stutters in, slow motion unlike the slow motion setting. Sorry if this is stupid question just curious

I 'm facing a weird sound issue on 4.2.2.

Suddenly I lost the focus sound while capture and video recording sounds work perfectly.

[G2 Android Development] jeyd02:
Fps : frames per second

The slow motion mode shoots video at 120 Fps in 720P. (it records it at or normal speed 1.0x in 120 Fps)

You have three different speed option to watch the slow MO video.

1. You can watch it @ original normal speed 1.0x at 120fps

2 or you can watch it at half the speed .50x (since you watching half the speed you need expand half of the total frames per second. Now since it's half the original, 120fps goes to 60fps.[ to still watch it smooth])

3. Last option it's to watch it at 1/4 of its original speed. As I said since it's going to play way slower at 1/4 off the original speed we divide the total amount of recorded Fps by 4 which will be 30fps out of 120fps. Now you watch it with 1/4 of its speed @ 30fps. (remember 23-25fps when playing back a video is the least Fps you can have to watch the video without lagging or stuttering.)

And that's about it. If you were to do the same for higher quality video like 1080p you could shrink it down to half the speed with decent Fps but if you try to do it with 1/4 speed then the Fps will be lower than 23 which you will notice lags lower than that. G2 currently can't take that much Fps for higher quality. That's why the mode only works for 720p, less pixel and less details.

Anyone happen to notice this thread has 498,425 views!!! Just saying, WOW!
[G2 Android Development] meroupow:
On quality, the 720p [MENTION=512813]120[/MENTION]FPS is highly pixelated. It is far from the 720p @60 FPS quality which is also worse than 720p@30 FPS.

I see also some pixelation effect in the 1080p @ 60 FPS compared to 1080p@30 FPS.

4k mode is very nice in terms of definition, but you lose the manual focus, the software stabilisation and you get issues to share the video (not everybody can play back the video without stuttering).

In the end the 1080p@30 FPS remains the best choice, no?

Which mode are you really using when you just want to really keep that moment?

Noise cancellation

I also have problem with the audio recording sound, it drops due to the noise cancellation not being disabled. This guy has manage to disable noise cancellation, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NoxMTxiFvo but i have no idea how. I recorded with 4K and 1080p and listening to both, i would say that the 4K definetly use more of the noise cancellation mic while the 1080p also uses it but not as much. If you look at the description of the youtube video he say that he uses your mod + modified mixer_path setting. Can any expert tell me how to disable it from there?

Only 720p@120fps has pixelated, 1080p@60fps is butter smooth and no pixelation what so ever....and it is best mode for daily use, because fps will adjust according to light conditions.

G2 running the EE 4.4.2 rom, not rooted.

Copied the 3.1 apk and the kk 3.1 zip file to the internal storage.

Installed the apk, followed instructions - backup, install camera mod only, reboot.

But I don't see the ISO 1600 option under the normal mode, 800 is the max - have I missed something?

Thanks
[G2 Android Development] bender_007:
The "not rooted" part only.
[G2 Android Development] scoobydoo99:
Didn't think it needed rooting - till it got to the bit where it said it was checking root access...

Presume it probably did nothing then, and I can just root and run through it again?
[G2 Android Development] subhani:
Completely agree. Only 720p@120fps is pixelated. So yes, 1080p@60fps is ideal for everyday recording.

Having said this, if a FIXED high frame rate for smooth playback is crucial for you and you don't care for the pixelation, then 720p@120fps is best.

There is no dispute however, that the most detailed and sharpest footage is captured in 4K UHD mode. Slow motion isn't available in UHD and saved files tend to be much larger. Video playback on some other devices is very temperamental.
[G2 Android Development] scoobydoo99:
I was hoping to leave the phone stock so it picks up the carrier OTA updates, if I root it will it still get the OTA updates? Is it just a custom recovery that causes a problem with the OTA updates?

Which is the best root method for the G2?
[G2 Android Development] bender_007:
Yap. Root. But please check previous posts about the warning. Having a recovery is wise.

[G2 Android Development] meroupow:
Not at all. 1080p @ 60 FPS has less details. I enclosed some pictures to show evidence. I hope the difference can be seen.

It was also raised by gsmarena:

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g2_vs_samsung_galaxy_s4-review-984p8.php

"The 60fps video mode, however, proved to be a disappointment as turning it on, caused a drop in the perceived resolution - the letters all but fade out and the diagonal line becomes jaggy. It's similar to when the first 1080p video phones hit - they did better at the tried and true 720p, the LG G2 is better at 30fps than the new 60fps."

The 4k is clearly in a different league in terms of details. Fantastic.

The 720p@120 FPS is not worth mentioning unless there is something wrong in my setup and you guys get better results... I find it useless.
[G2 Android Development] meroupow:
To assert my point of view, I extracted a detail of the videos and upscaled it.

So for me it is simple now. I only use 2 modes for movies.
[G2 Android Development] rodcpierce:
Xdabbeb, I just wanted to update you on the no sound on video recording and taking forever to save issue. After nearly a week of testing and trial and error I have came up with two things. One simple kernel causes the issue on most Roms (cloudy stock, cloudy flex, cloudy pro) and the Androidusers stock ROM version just is not compatible. Takes pictures great, just has video sound and saving issues. Currently running cloudy stock and everything works as it should. Sound works great and takes no time to save a finished video. Thanks again for all of your hard work!!!
[G2 Android Development] subhani:
Maybe I missed the info but I'm assuming the first PIC is 720p@120fps. The second one is 1080p@30fps, the third one is 1080p@60fps and the last one is obviously the 4k still image.

If this is correct, then I can see why myself and one or two others couldn't see the difference in detail between 60fps and 30fps. It is too subtle a distinction. Although you are correct, it IS there.

The frame rate and smoothness however is easily noticeable and that's why I recommended the 60fps recording.

---------- Post added at 05:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 AM ----------

I would take frame rate over detail any day. I think it's more like a gaming thing. Although a good balance of both should be achieved. Hence 1080p @60fps is my personal choice. YMMV.
