Okay so since you are the copyright holder and you pointed this out tonight I'll shut down the app from Goole Play . I'm sorry only that you pointed out just now, I would have removed a long time ago. I was wrong , that's my bad :)

Hoping that you can forgive me I can share how obtain true neutral matrix based on current frame for your freedcam , and all color theory behind.

Thank you guys , now it's really the end of Bacon Camera , It was funny and very instructive for me and my knowledge, I've started a new project and I will not make the same mistakes I made with Bacon Camera.

lol i just told you the spirit of opensource and dont say you should take it down.

fact is i dont care about, that you make money with it and keep the source closed. if i would, you have it already noticed. that was just a sidenote.

so here some nice words:

are you serious? only because your app has cracked you want to stop it? you should be happy someone thought your app is worth to be cracked.

you should not care about. most payed apps are cracked ;P

as you said you spended alot time into it, when thats not enough is to continoue i dont know. then maybe the people you meet. to give up is not a option.

just as an idea to make your project uninterested for hackers. update your demo to full version and keep payed too.

people who like it, will buy it.

and about the neutral matrix, yeah i know how to get neutral point from a rgb img^^

but to be fair. on dng whitebalance is truly equal. people who just convert the dng to jpeg, can simple use jpeg at full quality, with denoise turned off.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fgnm:
Thank you for your words, but there are too many mistakes starting from the fact that it's a paid app, that now cannot be covered. I totally wrong to identify the "user type" of this app, paid for this is simply not the best choice to continue growing. As well as will be a paid app its impossible to make the difference between other apps , and because I really want to do an innovation in android camera (or at least try ) I've to correct mistakes I've done here. That's all, now its just a limitations of what could be.

(You know there are more then 5.000 cracked download then 500 from google play :p so yes there must be something wrong here. )

Kindly don't remove the app from playstore. And please continue the good work. Bacon Camera is the best camera app I've ever used and one of the best apps I've paid for.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] defcomg:
Simple people have money not everyone has a credit card I have a visa card but it's pretty much useless on the playstore.

I've seen play store vouchers in selected stores but they are rare to see as opposed to iTunes gift cards which are right next to the candy at the check out.

Some people wanna pay but have no means to some just don't care and wanna pirate to the non developer it appears like developing is a matter of pressing two buttons and viola working app.

Playstore needs license check like Nokia symbian did where it used imei and bury the license check code in native where startup code is in native first run app connects to authentication server where imei is checked then it downloads the start code which also checks imei match on every startup Etc etc

waiting for your next project ;)

just do not forget to inform us here were to find your next great camera app :p

So the development on this camera has stop for good?

Well that kinda a sad things since there a bug on latest build on OnePlus One...the camera button for taking picture doesn't work for front camera...even touch the screen to take picture rarely work for front camera...temporary fix is to disable and enable touch to capture it but only 1-2 picture can be taken while the camera button does nothing....back camera work fine

I'm using ResurrectionRemix 6.0.1 on Bacon...

I also think that Bacon Camera is the best camera app for the OPO.

I am curious about the "Tap to Focus" focus mode in the video recording module.

If I choose "Tap to Focus" is it completely disables Auto Foucus/Continous Auto Focus?

So if I understand it correctly there will not be any focusing (lens movement) unless, if I touch the screen, right?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Overspark:
I for one am still happy that I paid for this app, as I like paying reasonable amounts for good apps that give me something useful, and Bacon Camera definitely does that (and was cheap imho).

This app was always going to be cracked because all paid apps are cracked at some point. Looking at the download numbers for a cracked version is meaningless - the kind of people that download cracked apk's from websites weren't going to pay for it anyway, whether they can't easily pay for it like defcomg says (although I don't believe that's the majority) or whether they just pirate everything "on principle", like the deluded guy who cracked it. Downloading apk's from the internet is a great way to get unwanted code on your phone so you can only hope karma will be a ***** to them at some point.

The GPL concern is a valid one, it is essential for open-source derived code to remain open-source and be published again. Most developers I've seen deal with this by releasing a free version on XDA and a paid version on the app store, with the code somewhere on github or something. Then people who don't want to pay can get it here, and people who do want to pay can buy it on the app store. And other developers can look at it on github and maybe even submit patches to help with development.

All in all it would be a shame if development on Bacon Camera would stop. It might be the best camera app there is for the Oneplus One, and there is still room to make it even better. If you do decide to stop, please consider making the code open-source so someone else can pick it up and continue to improve it. Obviously we can't force you to continue working on it, so thanks for what you've given us so far.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kamikaze666:
Any update on the future of this app? I really hope development hasn't stopped :(
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] daniLaLaLaLaLa:
you can't stop until it's bugfree and support external storage on LG G3.. thank you for the awesome camera..
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] coloured_chalk:
OH SHI~

Wha-a-a the heck is going on here?!

Oh yeah. I can understand you. You just faced real world.

You remind me some user from xda (and 4pda). May be you know . It's komprado . http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=6043236

It's a great dev which maintained one of greatest Color OS ports on Oneplus One. Also, he was developing a kernel for Color OS...

So, some people just steal his work and published on China forum (bbsfans AFAIK, or something like that)

Link to original post: http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/general/coloros-4-4-4-custom-t3005991/post61646468#post61646468

From that, he is not publishing work on XDA. Now only on 4PDA (Russian community)

Also, can I tell my story shortly? May be it will be interesting.

I worked as freelance web dev in the past. It was great, I wrote plenty of landing pages, blogs, and other web sites \ web apps.

Sometimes I worked with people, which wanted to get work done, and not pay a damn price ( zero rouble, zero dollar)

They receiving my work, checked it, receiving, and then just faded away, adding me to ignore list, with changing all credentials to web site and hosting, so I can't change anything.

So I then see website, which was done, and I was just not payed for it. Nice thing to look for?!

Some time past away, now I'm able to detect this kind of people. And I keep my motivation up. So I wish You to not giving up.

Really, not. It was started as a fork, then is was refactored. Ok, I should clarify this moment by analogue:

You buy a car. Then replace a tires. It's same car? YES.

Then you replace every other details with new in the car.

Is it same car as it was before? NOT.

You can't treat this app as a fork. You can say "Bacon camera was encouraged by Snapdragon Camera and Freedcam".

Yes, encouraged. That's it.

Common, [MENTION=6215602]fgnm[/MENTION] . You have just started to gain experience with supporting live app with live users. Isn't this interesting? This is real development lifecycle. Your app is mature and ready to use.

Every time I code web apps on my JS stack, the only reason why I do it, is to help people. And by providing app (or script, no matter) which just works for non-tech people and solves their problems, gives me decent amount of positive. It's motivates me, I don't know, are we same in this aspect or not. Are you?

hahahaha, omg this is just hilarious

I really don't think that first clash with real world will harm dev.

May be it's just emotions. May be he will cool down and then continue code great things.

[MENTION=6215602]fgnm[/MENTION] ple-e-e-a-se. any chance to get this feature?

yes. THIS. great, [MENTION=3981671]Overspark[/MENTION] . I just can't even add anything to your answer. :good::good:

P.S. I'm sorry if I make mistakes in EN, since I'm not native speaker and not learned it anytime in my life. (I was learning Deutsche in school)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] xxLeoxx93:
Great app, but raw-output seems buggy to me (Oneplus One, CAF/Sultans Rom): Raw file gets saved, but with complely messed up colours. Even when I set the whitebalance manualy, the raw file is messed up. And when I switch to HDR with Raw enabled, the app seems to freeze. Btw: Would it be possible to save a JPEG and RAW file simutaniously, like the stock camera app? I used to take a HDR jpeg image and a normal raw file at the same time. Keep Up the good work! (I'll get a BQ Aquaris X5 Plus with Sony IMX298 sensor - hopfully this app works on that device as well :) )

Which OPO ROM can I record 1080p@120fps slow motion video?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kamikaze666:
Sultan's ROM has that feature by default in the stock camera, so that may be your best bet.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dragsterman:
Unfortunately Sultan's ROM only support 1080p@60fps/720p@120fps slow-mo video.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kamikaze666:
Oh, OK. I always thought that Sultan had it. I never tried recording in 120fps, because I saw that the video quality is always diminished when shooting in slow-mo.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] plamy1969:
I just tried BACON Camera on my LG L90 (Lolipop 5.02) and I can say: this is the best Android camera I've ever tried!

This application gives a photos with almost perfect details and smooth nuances with much less noise than all the other camera applications.

But I have one question: Why the white balance acts properly only when set on AUTO? No matter which Kelvin values I set, the picture always is bluish. Is there something I do wrong?

Thanks!

Here we go!

Thousand of thanks to every user (more then 21k). I could not sleep thinking that so many users used so outdated app. I could never imagine that my first public project could be so big :)

I've rewrote almost all GPL things I've used, and things that are still present in Bacon Camera are now available on my personal GitHub (you can find the link inside the app itself). I've credit all libraries used, and now no one should be unhappy for this ;)

Just because I don't want make no one unhappy I've insert some ads to keep the website on (that I'm completely rewriting) BUT they are easily deactivatable in settings.

What's next? Of course improve stability to any Qualcomm Snapdragon devices, improve Bayer RAW (my own implementation is not bug free yet, I'm working on it), and make absolutely a new UI

Leave feedback and see you soon!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] balazs901022:
Hi friend! I am very happy, you are back again. :highfive:

Happy to see you're back! I'm one of the few who paid for the app and i don't regret it.

Just one question does the exposure bracket suppose to work on oneplus one? Because it doesn't on mine, i'm on stock COS 13.1.2
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fgnm:
Hi Thank you! It should work, but it really depends on which camera driver you are using on OPO, ColorOS is the best however, I will install COS 13.1.2 and if possible I'll try to fix ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gabe13:
Thanks for the best camera app and thank you for not giving up on it, I really don't know what app I'll use if this beast didn't exist. :victory:

right now the SlowMotion and Exposure Bracket are not working

I'm here to help you find problems and test this app so it can stay the best :highfive:

What a nice surprise my phone said your Bacon Camera had an update.

I'm so glad you are active with it again. You have a winning app in this one [MENTION=6215602]fgnm[/MENTION].
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fgnm:
Exposure Bracket native api appears too much buggy, both in older and in new devices (even on OP3), I'm going to replace this function with a different one, it will be a bit slow compared to a native driver implementation but at least will work on any device that support Exposure Compensation. Also on devices that support manual exposure time I'm going to do the same with RAW so you can get the HDR+ effect.

Slow Motion is quite strange, or better, it does not have a standard implementation with Camera1. In some driver means real slow motion, in other means high speed. In NItrogenOS (Like LG G3) means high speed :p

I've tested, and if you look at specs of the video it is not a 30fps but much higher, so just slow down the playback to 30fps and you'll get the slow mo effect.

After the latest update that popup regarding turning the ads toggle on in this apps settings has become annoying...i can understand that ads can help devs since this apps is no longer a paid apps but what annoy me the most is that popup keep appearing when if there no internet connection...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fgnm:
Hi! Why don't turn they on? :p BTW The popup appears only when the flag ads is off, internet connection doesn't matter at all, and there are just a small banner and a "photo" inside gallery (that you can replace as you want since built in gallery can be disabled). Also there are copious solutions to disable ads.. It's just a simple implementation of AdMod I suppose that a generic adblock can do that if you really don't like the banner :D

As I said these ads needs just for keep the website on, since I'm writing some guide to better use all functions inside the app.

Last update still doesn't fix front camera capture mode on OPO....

when you turn on Tap To Shot (quite important for back camera), you can capture picture either by touch any part of the screen or click on the camera/capture button below on the back camera but on the front camera, capture button doesn't work but Tap To shot does....now here is the problem, if you click on the capture button for front camera (when Tap To Shot is enable) first, it will disable Tap To Shot completely...you can't take any picture at all...the only workaround is to switch to back camera and then switch to front camera again to make Tap To Shot on front camera working again....

Nope, unfortunately it's a driver bug and a 3rd party app cannot change system behaviour.. I should choice in the next update to hide manual focus at all, or enable another mode of manual focus that has a very very limited range.

But if you want I could try to patch your HAL driver to extend the manual focus range, I cannot guarantee the result and you should test it from me because I haven't a Z1, but if works you could have a full manual focus on your device too, let me know :)

UPDATE

1.8.3 is online and soon available on google play.
[MENTION=4556013]iPusak Gaoq™[/MENTION] check shutter button behaviour with front camera, I've found the bug, the problem was inside focus mode.
