will it replace the cyberian or not?

i was wondering if it will be replace ,, is there a bionx in this app?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ja1378:
it will be replace

better than bionz x we have
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Antonio1967:
When will v6.5 be released (awesome mod)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] @rtz:
Please port for Xperia Z 5.1.1
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] abbasbas:
very nice camera thank you, It is best
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] boojay:
Is it possible to port this for 4.4.4 KK? I had to revert back because LP & MM simply aren't as stable or battery friendly.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kokesh:
I am using my camera all the time. Actually it is the most used feature of my phone and I must say there is a difference. I am not sure about all the different modes, but the manual mode works perfectly. Also it has much better light perception, I get much less noise than with stock.

So please stop trolling.

BTW: it works perfectly on .291 - just move the SEMC..something folder from /system/priv-app to downloads (for backup) and reboot.

Than reboot to recovery and flash pexocam (and superusermod by rajeev before that) and you should be good to go.

You are responsible or you are not responsible?? :cyclops:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] EQ2000:
Well and I am talking of all the major camera mods /the 3 biggest), they dont really deliver that much. Looking at the files most are just stock files (BeyondCompare tool), unused, disabled (logcat shows they cant be loaded). Pretty much most of the work lies in the camera app and framework app and it aint delivering what is promised. Think TV-SHOP and it is clear. However I do appreciate that atleast they try to find solutions and workarounds but most is so far redundant and logcat will show it.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kokesh:
I get that, but enabling manual mode + doing little better work with light makes it worth for me.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] EQ2000:
What I would like to see is custom white balance slider and/or improved white balance auto-detection. Sony cameras have a tendency to go on the cold bluish side when there is larger green areas in the viewfinder. This can be corrected choosing sunlight or cloudy preset but it would be nice if it could detect it by itself. I think these mods can become much better if one can find a way to track the symbols needed to open *.so camera libs files from Z5/XX and somehow implement them into the system or modify part that handles it. Thus one could truly unleash the algorithms from the later Xperia phones.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kokesh:
Yep, white balance on the phone is crap. I also turn to choosing sunlight to get some color in darker shots.

It would be nice to be able to use the ISO setting (at least) in 3rd party apps. Didn't find a way to do that yet. I had high hopes when they released the open source camera drivers, which got them a lot of publicity among devs, but I haven't seen any AOSP ROM being able to make that thing work properly... It is real shame to lock the flagship phone camera down to even ISO selection.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] EQ2000:
Well only when there is more than 50% green. Still performs better than most other phones. White balance is otherwise very good especially considering how high the ISO can go. Z1 at ISO 2500+ performs far better than S6/S7 at ISO 1250 (max ISO cap for those phones).

Yeah the ISO and metering settings are auto on 3rd part. Spot based metering via touch would be awesome. Stock camera also needs continous focus mode which allows for instant capture without need for re-focusing. ProCapture has this and it works great on the Z1.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Aknologia:
Well, prove it by real, how I did.

I gave the real test, and you just pour out letters paid Troll.

so do or please stop trolling.

Can burst mode be implemented into this mod from Xperia z when it released?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kojak1989:
Where can i find this options:

1-DeNoise Mode

2-Trucolor5

3-Livemode7

4-New Icon

Or they are just built-in ?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
In the Scenes in manual mode when you use english language (in other languages are named normally)and the icon is the xperia x camera.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kojak1989:
Can you make screenshot ?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
I don't use this mod anymore for now(untill probably the v9). I use cyberian. With pexocam i had often problem of overexposure in superior auto. Actually i delete the mod and i have No time to flash it ;)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] TrevorAshley:
Here mate.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] webwude:
It is still not working. Even though I followed your steps I only get either a view without any controls, force close or the message that another application is blocking my camera. Z3c, 291, root.

Have you removed SemcCameraUI-xhdpi-release from system/priv-app and renamed SemcCameraUI-xxhdpi-release to*SemcCameraUI-xhdpi-release. Then rebooted your device?

Its the end of the month......Will V9 arrive?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Enge7che:
Did you pay for this mod?

No!!!

So dont ask every time for version 9. Yes the dev said at this month, but he is doing this for nothing and in his free time.

So be patient.....

Hi.. I have a z3 dual and i tried to flash the mod.. ( all three since non of them worked) but all the time when i try to run the app it crashes. I even tried to modify the file name by going to system/prive and change the name.. But nothing seems to be helping.. Can someone tell how to fix this or eaither go back to the original cam app... Thank you☺☺
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ratasana:
There will be no v9

please add this on first page:

in some roms (like slimm) the camera app name is xhdpi,

In case of failure delete the folder in /system/priv-app/ called SemcCameraUI-xhdpi-release

Reboot in recovery, flash the mod and it work fine!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] cheeyeen:
Thanks for the mod!

Every time I tap the app, the notice of "Your Xperia needs to cool down" pops out and I'm unable to use my camera at all. Device wasn't hot and I could use camera from other apps just fine?

Tried again, this time camera loaded but no buttons, only viewfinder. Then it crashes.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
I advice you to do a clean install with the rom an then install the mod in recovery. Or clean data for camera apps and video and without open the camera before, install the mod in recovery. You must have a deodexed rom and superuser mod
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] :
I'd go for cyberian too if the C3 was supported

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ja1378:
Ok

Sorry for go away from long time guys

our team involved in new bases for camera mod,soundmod,and new theme for Xperia Devices

But no worry

V9 is Going To release In past month but we wait for XZ Libs and Stablizer file to put in this mod

Also We are going to Support M4 and Z5 Series

V9 is 90 percent completed But we have problem only in some part of UI and Few Libs to port and fix

so pls be a patient

V8.5 Is bug Free Also and it shot very good.

But Promise to you that "Pure V9" is coming soon to destroy the border of Quality And Focusing and also destroy every cameramod

Edit:Not Believe Word Such as "ISO 256000" its not true like other lies that someone said

bcuz the best sensor in sony device can use iso128000 only in automode and only on z5 for hardware limit
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] xRevengerZee:
Thx a lot you're the best can't wait to see the changelog of v9 :D
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Inceptic:
So let's wait for v9 hope it will be released in this month ;)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] djgigi94:
Ohhh finally! I hope you managed the automode very well. The 8.5 have some overexposure problems (more than stock camera) on my z2. If you can put some preview of this new mod if you can ;) And,this mod(v9) replace stock camera? (i have this question because you say that it have a new ui, i don't know it is based on sony camera or not)P.S: Please don't insult the work of the others. That "someone" do a great mod, with great improving in camera. My z2 now shoots better than my z3+. When before ,z3+ shoots better than my z2(even camera mods on my z2,included pexocam). Despite this, i wait your v9 ;) and i hope your work is really better than the others ;)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] giriz1c:
[MENTION=5952312]ja1378[/MENTION] : Finally some hopes left on v9... :) XZ libs and XZ features would be amazing...Good Luck.! Xperia Z1 is waiting...
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ja1378:
Over Xposure Is Bcuz some lib that fix in v9.

its replace stock camera

If You Used Trucolor with livemode Problem Dosent exist anymore

"Someone" Tell a Big Lie To others
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] EQ2000:
I dont get this ISO 12800 vs 25600 ranting. The sensors cant even do 12800 natively. The ISO 6400/12800 is achieved by multi-frame composition like for example several other mobile cameras do (combining several frames for a single photo, s5, S6, S7, 6p, 5x, Iphone 5s, 6, 6s does it to name some). This requires ofcourse a stable hand and slow/non moving objetcs. Xperia Z1 for example cannot do more than ISO 3200 natively as in hardware limited. ISO above this is multi-frame based. IIRC the Sony sensors that can do ISO 12800 4x3200 have sensors that can capture photos twice as fast as Z1-Z2 (limited to ISO 6400, natively 3200). ISO 25600 would mean 8x3200 and produce bad results on Z1-Z2 and non optimal results on Z3-Z5 (not sure if Z3 uses IMX220 or improved IMX220S) unless standing on a mount and having a scenery with only static objects.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] sarvar97:
Please make your next version available for Z3+/Z4 phone too if you can. Its annoying that most of devs releases all their works for all Z series phones except this one.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] EQ2000:
Z1 and Z2 both have a HW limit of ISO 3200 but can do ISO 6400 via multi-frame method (Z1 and Z2 uses exactly same sensor IMX220). The rest (besides different sensors with bigger die area) AFAIK have boost method to allow for a bit more voltage in certain conditions aswell as being able to capture frames twice as fast or faster for multi-frame composition to software/algorithm wise create ISO 12800. Ofcourse I believe they all also have logic to help out with this in the HW but talking about ISO they are all roughly around 3200. That's why you cant choose higher in ISO settings and in camera libs folder you can find the multi-frame library that handles the logic and algorithms for ISO beyond 3200.

Also true HW ISO 12800 is out of the question with such tiny sensors in these mobiles. It would badly produce hot pixels and overheat badly.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] mkdmc:
1. 1/2.3 sensor isn't tiny for a smartphone

2. ISO isn't limited on hardware

3. Highest iso value on settings is 3200. not due to hardware, because sony has limited it on camera hal (I can share cyberian camera hal source for more informations!)

4. multi-frame library isn't about ISO

5. Please don't talk without enough knowledge!:D
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ja1378:
Ask One Question Why in your mod Focal Length is 4.6 and in other is 4.9 that have a lot of impact in quality(Highest Is better)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] EQ2000:
1. It is tiny compared to non mobile cameras. Using ISO 3200/20,7MP on the IMX220 which is 1/2.3 will rapidly give you lots of color noise and hot pixels. Hot pixels means sensor is getting very hot.

2. True ISO is hardware limited becouse it functions with voltage that is increased for the sensor. Higher ISO, higher voltage to capture more detail but more noise. Then you hae faked ISO via software that manipulates curves and shadows (like Samsungs S7 likes to do for example in high ISO modes) or multi-frame that gives good results under certain conditions. The later two are software based.

3. ISO 3200 is its functional safe limit. You only putting the sensor in overdrive mode by forcing it out of specs if you go past it making it overheat and fail.

4. You have a library file that handles the multi-frame method.

5. Comming from the "camera mod" developer that labeled 16:9 as 20MP which is impossible since sensor is 20,7MP 4:3. That means you tricked people into believing 16:9 mode would give 20,7MP (or to be exactly 20,65MP). Amongst other shady things.

I wont answer any more of your post as you have set your tone level to way below XDA standards. Blocked. :cool:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] BlackSoulxxx:
Okay guys, stop fighting there.... [MENTION=6594010]mkdmc[/MENTION] [MENTION=5963321]X-Tsubasa[/MENTION] [MENTION=6126659]PDesire[/MENTION] [MENTION=2902434]Pandemic[/MENTION] just ignores him and when they released v9, we will end this once and for all....

[MENTION=6922850]EQ2000[/MENTION] many thanks for your replies about sensor tech. XDA need more guys like you. Now let me teach something about ISO and sensor...

- Yes, those sensor limits the ISO that we could possibly get. But ISO controls are all in SW and we have to do is flip some bits to manipulate iso voltage controls, hence the ISO 25600+ . And those "tiny" IMX sensor you saying is far more capable at taking off da roof ISO with considerable SNR. Let take an example. The IMX220 that used from ZU to Z2 is capable of taking ISO 28764 (HW limits here) and the IMX221 on Z3/Z3+ (a bit improvement from IMX220, rewired copper and a bit of low noise analog amplifier improvement) same as old 220 when come to ISO range. But why Sony nerfed sensor and only bring ISO 12800 to IMX221? Ya know, profits and 221 got lower noise than 220. But that doesnt mean IMX220 cant use higher ISO range than its crippled original values....

- Its true that multi-frame aid ISO in someway. But in this case Sony decided not to use it in Xperia.

What about that "hot pixel"?

Well, to be honest. Hot pixel doesnt related to ISO....

WHAT CAUSES THEM?

-Image sensors are analog!

-Sensors collect photons in microscopic wells, called pixels. Sensors do their magic by assigning electric charges to these photons. These charges are read as analog voltages. These voltages are sampled and quantized to make them into digital values. These digital values go through much more digital processing before we get to see them.

-Leakage currents are electric charges which leak into sensor wells. These excess electric charges increase the voltage at the well (pixel) and make it look brighter than it should.

-Manufacturing variations will cause some pixels to have much more leakage current than others. It's these few pixels on each sensor which are called "hot."

WHAT MAKES THEM WORSE?

-Leakage currents increase with temperature, so a hot sensor will show more hot pixels.

-They are much more visible at high ISOs.

-They are tiny, so they are more visible at high magnification.

-They stay in the same place. If you are a worrier, you'll learn where they are and always see them. It's like any other minor cosmetic defect on anything. No one else will notice them.

So there u have it. Yes, i understand the concerns about using high ISO that make the sensor hot. But believe me, I saw an Xperia that was in hot conditions almost 24/7 for almost a year and suprised us when we tested its defective pixels rate. And all high-end IMX having temp sensor that kill-switch when hit the limit and this "Dynamic Defect Pixel Correction (1Dementional/2Dementional)" nice function, also Sony keep improving its de-noiser in SW as well. So dont worry about it....
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] EQ2000:
Thanks for the information, interesting read. But Z3 has IMX220S and Z3+ has IMX230 and there is a marked difference. Z1 and Z2 has IMX220.

IMX220 PDF - http://www.sony.net/Products/SC-HP/IS/sensor1/img/products/ProductBrief_IMX220_20140910.pdf

IMX230 PDF - http://www.sony.net/Products/SC-HP/IS/sensor1/img/products/ProductBrief_IMX230_20150427.pdf

Ofcourse Sony will limit older HW even if present in newer phones due to keeping up the sales rates but max limit is not always safe and there might be reasons behind the voltage cap. It's like cars, engine can often do more but they cap RPM to not 'blow' the engine. Goes with electronics to where many products can do more technically as in their parts can do more but are often capped for safety reasons, heat reasons, stability reasons and component life length reasons.

There is no doubt though that the Xperia Z1+ sensors can do quite a bit more than stock allows you. Sony just capped several things and or not optimised more due to product market life length and not to compete to much with their DSLR/Digital Camera department products.

I appreciate this info but give credits to original author when you fully quote. :)
