HI

im using m9 stock rom with sense.

Google camera on m9 only has HDR not HDR+.

M9's own camera has HDR only and that makes phones to artistic, I mean you can tell that picture had something done to it, where with google camera app you can't.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] atomomega:
I might be wrong but it depends on the way the manufacturer implements the camera2 api
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] rohitbaba:
I have tried install google camera on galaxy s4 s5 and HTC one m8 m9, also tried it on g3 and also Motorola x which practically nexus 6. But non of them seems to have HDR+ mode.

It say when you download google camera that HDR+ is only available for nexus 5 and 6 but I would have tought as its great feature and everyone was so hyped about it, surly some developer may have imported it for other phone but notting.

Even cm12 and 12.1 ROMs dont have it.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jonoro11:
Better Camera SUPER mode is very similar to hdr+, you could request support in their g+ users group and the developper is responsive
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] royaleperson:
can i install this on my samsung phone? how?

Sorry to bump this and with regards to a different Nexus, but anyone know if this will work properly on the Nexus 6P?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Mr.Mateusz:
Anyone checked it with 6.0.1 android? Whats the limitations, only non-working flash?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] myfreeweb:
On the 5X with CM13, it works mostly fine. Images are saved upside-down, which is not a big deal (just flip in lightroom). Tap to focus doesn't work in the latest published version, but works when built from source. I'm going to fix the upside-down thing and send a pull request to the author.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] VALRCIEL:
hi i use l camera v0.3 dev and patched with libmmcamera_imx179_mra58k_60fps.so

but some resolution missing.

any suggestion? :confused:

Anybody using lenses for n5 coz new l camera is awesome and i wanna try them ! So pls suggest me !! Thanx !!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
What's the size per minute? Can u tell us? [emoji14]
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
I'm gonna take one in November, out of cash now.. Its as cheap as 15$ and works great.. My friend uses it in his nexus 4.. It really really covers up the bad camera performance of nexus 4.. I'll try to share some samples here
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ssro:
File size : 173 MiB

Duration : 42s 97ms

Overall bit rate : 34.5 Mbps
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
Okay... If i remember 1080p uses 120mb/min..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] devilblessed:
Hi everyone.

I've made 2 videos using my nexus. The first one was at 1080p 10s video and it gave me a 20MB file. The second one was a 3264x2448 (Not exactly 4K - Not exactly UHD, but sure enough has 8Mpixel's) and it gave me a 99MB file.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4K_resolution
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jayRokk:
4K is not possible on the nexus 5.

You really think you can enable 4k thru an app? Lol
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
Sorry my bad.. Near 4k i meant... I think overall sound quality has also improved in the recording
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Zkaar:
One could say it can -roughly- record in 4K, but the pixel difference, I believe, it's because of the aspect raito. 4K 3840x2160 is 16:9 and the 8MP 3264x2448 is 4:3

This seems all fine to me, I may be pretty wrong there but it all makes sense
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] thejacko:
So is it the possible highest native resolution ?

Great work thanks man ...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] badboy47:
I am really liking this app compare to the stock camera. I don't mind paying a small amount for this app (paid version). Anyway, thanks again.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
There's no paid version [emoji14] this is the official Lollipop camera and will be included in the final Lollipop release on November 3
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] SirMatin:
What about 1080p@60 fps?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
Don't know [emoji52]
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] gefilus:
I like that app, but kinda would be good to get auto exposure when recording, so i dont need to touch if changes light
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
I actually think there isn't any improvement in the quality of photos.. They have just added some features... Other than the manual focusing part, third party camera apps have all the features.. And are much faster.. Also the shutter speed is really poor in the L camera app
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] antimo84c:
Please can u add the possibility to take a pic pressing one bluetooth earphones button?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
Sorry this is not my creation.. I took the code from github and my friend compiled it.. We can't add features which aren't included it the code..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] yuuzhantar:
It's not the official camera

It use the new API camera2 introduced in android 5.0 Lolipop

And you just took the precompiled apk from github

And you should have provided the official link from github

It's more respectful for the developer who is PkmX

https://github.com/PkmX/lcamera
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Yeah, you should really add thanks to PkmX in your OP and also include his github.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Fregedin:
No way to test on stock rom 4.4.4 KitKat? it shows me packaging error.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jonoro11:
Has anyone compared this L camera to the new FV5 Lollipop beta?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] yuuzhantar:
It use an API which didn't exists in 4.4
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ironclad1911:
Wow.......manual focus _/\_ .......... I was waiting for this since i purchased Nexus 5.......my previous phone was lumia 720 and its camera interface is far more advanced than Aosp camera..........i hope this app evolves and beat lumia........All the best!!!!!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mudassirrashid:
I really want such app for android 4.4...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] neo2306:
I think new camera API is not for 4.4.4.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Exactly the new API is for 5.0+

You can't use this on 4.4.4.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jacob019:
surely someone will backport it, after all it's open source.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
Android L is just a week far, no one will backport it for just a week..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jacob019:
Just because android L comes out doesn't mean all devices will get it. Most current devices will never get the upgrade, so a backport would be useful for them.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] usaff22:
Can you post the source of this camera? it was on github...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Why link another thread? Lol just put the github with thanks to the original dev in your OP. If you're gonna share it, do it right. OP looks like u trying to take credit
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
This app was not shared by the original dev to me.. It was my friend who shared this app, I noticed no one sharing this app in the Whole nexus 5 forum so I shared.. The link i gave is not only for the githun think, it has comparisons between old and new camera...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
That makes no difference. You didn't develop it, you're only sharing it. You offer personal dropbox and Google drive links. Looks very much like you're trying to steal credit. It does not matter if the developer didn't share here. You still still include his github and thanks to him in your OP.

How outdated are those download links anyways? Just put up his github so people can download the latest apk from there.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
No one follows this thread anymore.. And there is a difference.. I didn't know that someone developed it.. I thought my friend found it somewhere.. I came to know later that it is developed from github? Why getting so pissed? As if u developed this app? Chill out
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
No I'm not the developer I just get annoyed when other people fish for thanks by trying to steal credit for other peoples hard work.

I've seen developers walk away from XDA for good because of things like this. It's disrespectful. Plain and simple. Whether I'm the developer or not doesn't matter. If you're going to share an app, then share it. Don't give out personal links that you uploaded from someone else. You're trying to steal credit for the app and it isn't right. It isn't yours and your playing it off like it is.

I don't see what's so hard about putting a link to the developers github and credits to him in your OP. In the time it took you to reply to me, you could have added it 7 times already.

https://github.com/PkmX/lcamera

Credits to PkmX for developing

His github and PkmX is his username. There you don't even need to dig for it. Just copy and put in your OP. Simple.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jacob019:
oh you guys
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] badboy47:
Plz stop with this sh1t. Lately I seen many developers closing their threads because everyone acting like mods. You are not a mod so please move along. Let mod deal with what's right or wrong. Its annoying...

Why can't we just move along happy :'(
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Well luckily this isn't the developers thread...

glad to see I'm not the only person thinking it's shameful
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
In the OP did i mention anywhere that its my creation? Get a life man.. Xda is filled with all the people like u.. Always complaining, do your work man
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] pikachukaki:

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
Yes no updates since past 8 days
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] DamnItLukasz:
-No, you never said that it was your work but you did not mention the original creator/source, I am relatively noob, but If a want to share something that I did not make, I'll make sure to follow XDA rules, and link the original source, that's why people are complaining, we all have some minimum reading literacy.

-Yeah, XDA is filled with people who's sick of seeing people opening threads filled with the hardwork of anothers, just seeking some easy thanks. I definitely need a life.

-You're overreacting, people told you nicely to give credits to the original developer and you took a hell of time complaining, then giving us the runaround.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
I replied nicely too..and you are overreacting.. Damm u guys are writing 10-10 lines of comments and telling me to stop overreacting
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ali262883:
I'm clarifying this for the last time.. I got this apk link from a guy in the nexus 5 WhatsApp group.. I asked him for his xda name to give him credits he didn't reply... Then i posted the link here and from u guys i came to know about the original developer.. The links provided are not from my personal cloud storage too.. Its from my the guy who shared this apk..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] onesolo:
I know, I was only just saying... no complaining...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] borchaniz:

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Go to the first post. Click the github link. Once you get there, click the 3 bars on the top right of the screen. Click on code. You can find the apk there, straight from the dev.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jirez62:
For me too I can't choose from any resolution that has 60fps.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Very possible that this is a hardware limitation of our phones. While it may be possible to enable it in the source for cameras that are capable of recording at that fps, our phone may not be.

Edit:

You guys need to read the FAQ. The README file in the directory I just linked a few posts ago. This isn't just download and go. Some assembly required.

If you followed the steps correctly, you'd already have it backed up. I can pull it for you later if no one beats me to it.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Has anyone got 60fps working? I followed the exact steps outlined in his github, but I'm stuck. I've tried using Terminal Emulator to run the commands with no luck. I mount system read-write and input the command to install the new lib. After I try to remount system to read only it says resource is busy. No matter how long I wait, that's the result I get. That is where I keep getting stuck. I've tried manually replacing the original lib with the one from his github and setting the permissions to match. Even after a reboot, his camera app force closes. Only part I seem to have gotten right is that all other camera apps can't connect to the camera anymore. Can someone help me out here?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Atok_fr:
It's probably a stupid question but I don't know where I can find the .dng for editing... I have only a .jpg file in gallery (how was it created ?)...

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Robert-:
Won't work with the new official relase..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Cinner:
I installed it on my brand new official Lollipop release and it works well (except for some UI bugs).
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Cinner:
It would be really nice if a widescreen 16:9 resolution (4K-ish) could be implemented. The 1.33:1 aspect ratio is not optimal these days, but it still looks pretty great compared to the 1080p video of the Google camera app.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Robert-:
For me video recording isn't working...

Which one do you use?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Cinner:
The one on github, seems like that is a newer version than the one posted in the OP.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
OP doesn't have any affiliation with the app besides him using it. That's why.

Like I said, if you want newer info or answers to questions you may have... They have all pretty much been asked and answered on reddit. His thread isn't hard to find once you navigate to

It is working on nexus 5 final lollipop release(lrx21o), 60fps experimental feauture works too if you follow the instructions to modify the camera library file.

It would be wonderful if we can get 120fps videos

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] BorisDeviant:
Just tried the latest test version. After following the step by step guide to record 60fps videos, I am able to select these modes.

But the output video is reported as 30fps at least by VLC (could not try with other players at the moment).
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
It plays back normal speed. PkmX uploaded it to YouTube to play it back at a higher FPS. If that's what you're talking about.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] BorisDeviant:
Not sure what you mean

I just wanted to hilight that VLC reports the video as a 30fps-video

It seems to play at normal speed but 30 fps.

Did not have the time to do further tests, though.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Miqueas111:
This come with some kind of instructions? I've seen some pictures with the camera, edited btw, and it looks awesome! I was trying auto mode on everything and it don't look so good.

I'm on the stock 5.0 and it's working fine.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
It does come with instructions. Go to the first post of this thread and click the github link. Find the readme and read it.

i know the apis havent been out for that long...but im a tiny bit surprised to have not seen a app that uses the new api on the play store. i wonder when the existing cam apps will update...and when google camera will be able to take advantage of the new features
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Not sure but like I mentioned earlier, the only phone that has actually been updated to use the new API is our Nexus 5. So basically it would be an exclusive app to the N5 and newer devices like the N6&9.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] baraks:
hi there,

will it work on Nexus 4?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
If you read literally 1 post above yours, no. It will not work on the Nexus 4. It got 5.0 but it was not updated to use the new camera API.

Does anyone read anymore?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] onesolo:
Wasn't the api supposed to be for all phones that got 5.0 ??? What's the interest to be lock to only a couple of phones?? And the other new phones from other brands, they also are not getting this??

I thought that devs were lazy

but now I know why they don't even bother, if it's only a specific device thing...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
Check Github.

FAQ

Does it run on Nexus 4/7/10 or other phones that have received Lollipop update?

It seems that none of those devices fully support the new API as of now (2014/11/17). If you want to verify, enable verbose output outlined in the "Debugging" section below, and check the output from*logcat. You should see a dump of your device cameras' capabilities like*this*when L Camera is started. Your camera'sandroid.request.availableCapabilities*must include 1 (MANUAL_SENSOR), 2 (MANUAL_POST_PROCESSING) and 3 (RAW) for L Camera to work.

https://github.com/PkmX/lcamera/blob/master/README.md

Can't speak to other OEM's, but as of right now only Nexus 5 is supported. Besides new phones that ship with the new API.
