i can use the camera while on the phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woohooo!!!
ahhhh. another releif. i hated that about the captivate
YES I KNOW!!! that was probably the only thing i did not like about my captivate!!
i wonder if an epic camera.apk will work. i know you would lose 8mp mode but there are some nice features in the sgs that we are missing. not sure if the epic has all of them but it is the only one that has a flash and 2 cameras.
better yet i wonder if the sgs2 camera will port into 2.2.1, it said cant parse package when i tried, that seems to be it being a gingerbread app, i have seen that message before with gb apps. i know it works on the galaxy s if you have gingerbread. i just wish i knew how to make it install in 2.2.1
damnit!!!! still cant post videos directly to face book!! wtf!!

Anyone have the HTC camera app apk floating around?
I miss the touch to focus and widescreen photos. Any similar camera app would be appreciated also.
Tried a search but only found a thread for an HTC Desire camera app but it's for CM5 (N1).
no touch and focus but the CM6 camera has widescreen just go to settings on the camera and choose 6.5mp
Huh, where, I can't find that
I'm not sure if this is going to work with CM6 (nightly or rc) or not, but here it is. Pulled from a stock Evo.
Um. CM6 doesn't have sense...HTC Cam isn't going to work.
When I was on CM5 on nexus, Paul @ Modaco was able to port the HTC Desire Camera (same as Evo) over to the Nexus and it worked on CyanogenMod.
Here is the old link:
http://android.modaco.com/content/g...era-application-on-nexus-one-mcr-cm-enomther/
Some people are already asking if it's possible with 2.2:
http://android.modaco.com/content/g...not-possible-on-vanilla-2-2-android-on-nexus/
I can't really blame you for asking though. I can't decide if the pictures are turning out as nice as the stock apk. I also am not a fan of the focusing on this version. These are major players for me when deciding my rom as one of my biggest uses for the phone is documenting the antics of my children.
As much as I love the rom and the work Cyan has put into it (which is extraordinary), I may go back to DC (also extraordinary work) 2.1 for the camera.
i'm thinking once froyo comes out offically for the evo then there will be a better chance of porting it

Tried dumping HTCCamera.apk from ava froyo and the one from the new stock 2.2 with no luck. Just got 'Application not installed'... I'll be trying some new stuff tonight to try to get this loaded!
i dedicated about an hour and a half of my time to try and get the HTC camera app working on this. I followed modaco's layout for putting on the camera app, hoping that he didn't actually make many changes to the apk itself. It didn't work.
If i could figure out what he did to get it to work... that'd be great >=D

Maybe we could contact him and ask for advice or if he'd be willing to help us port it over for cm6. Just a thought.
Ok, so I pulled the de-odex'd HTCCamera.apk, and various /system/lib and /system/framework files from the new stock froyo build, in the same manner modaco did with his n1 port, and loaded it into a zip.
Flashed from clockworkmod over the 8/1 nightly and I did manage to get the HTC camera/camcorder apps loaded!!
However it would force close immediately.. ugh. Now I'm frustrated.
I'm no programmer, but it seems modaco modded the boot.img to get this working (as that is the only file I couldn't find an evo equiv for his n1 version).
The zip contains the CM6 boot.img (resulting in force close).
Tried using the stock (from the official froyo) boot.img, resulted in a boot loop.
I'm not even sure if this is the problem, but it seems logical from my standpoint.
I don't know how to mod it myself and I think I've made all the progress I can within my knowledge, so I'll post what I've got so hopefully someone else can tinker with it and get this working!

Check out Vignette in the market, its the best camera replacement I've used yet and it offers leas of great processing effects too. Full version costs money but there's a free demo version.
Tried Vignette and all it has are a bunch of filters.
Some of us want touch to focus to take nicer pictures.

Would be cool if someone could get this going....
Ditto! I love CM6 but not the AOSP camera... RC2 has a better camera but still like HTC's version best.

its actually shoots 8mp too. if you look at the details on the HTC cam, its only 6ish MP. unless its a typo, but i dont think they could mess up the resolution like that.
bump has anyone got the htc camera app working on the evo yet?
In the settings under focus enable "touch"

I was doing some searching the other day, and i came across this post.
http://android.modaco.com/content/google-nexus-one-nexusone-modaco-com/305352/27-may-r2-desire-camera-application-on-nexus-one-mcr-cm-enomther/
Now this is the HTC Camera App for regular Nexus 1 builds.
So i was wondering if anyone was capable of getting this working on a Froyo build for the desire?
I have attached the ZIP so you can have a look.
Hopefully it will lead to a better camera app for Froyo
Great idea! Hope someone will do this!
Yea the original post claims it works fine on the Nexus so i cant see why it wouldnt work on the desire.
I would look into it myself but have no idea where to start.
This should definately be looked into!
Well im having a go myself.
Ive updated all files to reflect the 2.2 versions...
and updated the boot.img with what i saw relevant from the previous one.
Phone boots which is good
but when i run the camera app it force closes.
now its taken me 2 hours to get to this stage from knowing nothing so just guessing ive missed a few things from the boot image.
so ill update when ive looked at it more. Going to bed soon
Good work man.
This+Open Desire= sex!
well your in luck because at the moment its open desires boot image im working on. so if i can get this working then it will work for you
Booooooooo, work on defrost
well i prefer opendesire, but if i can get this working on that then ill happily transfer it to defrost.
unfortunately, im a bit stuck at the moment haha

ok i found a 2.2 version for the nexus which contains a kernel for the camera to work properly.
surely someone can get this working on the desire?
link to update zip for 2.2 nexus 1...

does the camera app include the gallery?
i'd really love both .
if you mean the htc gallery then nope. the only thing i like about the htc rom is the camera, hence why im trying to get this working so bad! the quality in the pics is alot better than the stock froyo camera app.

i know, that's why i want it too, also it has face recognition. but also the htc gallery is much better than the android stock gallery. its way faster and more beautiful.
the htc camera would be great indeed, so +1 for that.
This would be great. The HTC Camera app still makes me want to switch to a Sense ROM. Hopefull someone is able to make this happen
well as it stands no devs seem interested, im doing my best but its my second day working on it from knowing nothing about android
just bugs me that they have this working on the nexus 1 on AOSP roms, yet there inst one for the desire, and its the phone it came from!
would be so awesome if you could get this working... I had a crack at playing with the htccamera files from enomthers rom but got nowhere at all, so I guess I know less than nothing ^^;
this is for anyone who likes/wants SenseUI and doesn't want to root and flash a ROM or jus doesn't have a ROM available for their device I have found this after AGES of searching the internet...don't remember where I found it though...REALLY sorry if this was already posted
This is a launcher that I found to be pretty close to actually Sense...I compared to my Hero...also this worked on jus about every 2.0+ device I own and all my friends devices I tried it on...
not sure about anything below 2.0 but I doubt anyone still uses anything that low

I know a lot of people using stock Android that would like this, especially if it can run Sense widgets! (Not me - I <3 Launcher Pro!!)
Can you post any screenshots?
It's the ADW launcher 1.1.5 Sense skin. I'll get pictures of it here soon.
well I jus took a pic but my cam sucks lol the pic is not that great and dark but this is my stock Samsung Intercept and runs jus as smooth as it did on my buddies Captivate Galaxy S
again this in on my Intercept and sorry for the terrible pic...I will get better pics tomorrow to post
The Captivate had great camera software. anyone know if it is possible to put it on Inspire, and how?
I'd kill for better camera software. Hoping someone can do this if it is better than the stock camera
Try installing the .apk by sideloding it. I would but I like the camera how it is.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
I can't imagine how it would work since the camera hardware is different.
The sense camera software seems pretty good to me. I love the filters it offers. It is one of the reasons why I don't go to CM7.
Sense Camera App?
I miss the stock sense camera app...I went to CM7.
Do you know where I can get the captivate OR sense camera apk's?

The sense Camera requires Sense Frameworks which aren't present in CM7.
I just downloaded a Captvate ROM and there are two Camera APK's one is the camera app and the other is called camerafirmware.apk. Both are required and there is no way camerafirmware.apk is going to work on an htc camera.
I went to CM7 as well and the camera is not that great compared to the htc sense cam app. But, it's also not horrible.
Hi..
I just got an LG G2X with GB 2.3.3 update installed stock.
1. I've noticed the 1080p/24fps option is missing on the video camera settings.
2. The touch focus is not working either. It's supposed to focus while recording video and you touch the screen.
I bought the phone because of these features, so Im very disappointed they are not included. Any ideas.
All those features were present with Froyo. So what you really want is the LG camera app. After the Gingerbread update it was replaced by the Google camera app.
But you can flash your phone with Weapon G2X 2.5 which has the LG camera app included.

Why would LG do that? I mean, why put a rom which disables the features that give value to the phone such as 1080p video?....Not only that, like I mentioned before, I bought the phone for the features and now what?..
That means that a person that doesn't know how to flash a different ROM is screwed...so they end up returning the phone...this is really bad business... If LG needed to flash a new ROM to fix all bugs, they shouldve given us a complete ROM which would have all the features the phone has.
i dont want to go install the old rom due to all the bugs it has. So, in other words.. this phone is most likely going back.

I know, I would be dissapointed as well.
What you can do is either what the previous poster said or you could flash a Froyo ROM which would have all the features that you bought this phone for.
If you need help PM me and I could help you flashing your phone and doing all those good things

Well.. I know how to flash roms.. I just need to know where I can find them and which ones have the least bugs..I would appreciate it if you can tell me where to find them.
I just dont want to flash an old rom which is the reason LG had to update the G2X due to all the bugs froyo has.
..thanks.

I felt the same way you do after i did the Gingerbread update.
But here's the link to the ROM you'd be interested to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1207125
It's an AWESOME ROM!
Match it with this Kernel and you have a pretty nice handset:

Thanks dude... do you know anything about recording 1080p/30 fps on the g2x... someone told me that somewhere in xda there is something about it?
And how come you have 2.3.5 CM7 nightly..is that better?
With the Gingerbread google camera it already allows you to record in 1080p HD 30/fps its just not showed as 1080p.
I like the CM7 2.3.5 only because i think it's a more stable ROM..but you won't be able to flash the LG camera app. For some reason the LG Camera app is not compatible with 2.3.5 or CM7 base ROMs.
But i'm actually now running Eaglesblood 2.3.5 which is a CM7 base...so i have the best of both worlds.

what about touch focus?... does it work with your rom.. like.. when you're recording and you touch the screen does it focus on a close object?
also...
what about Netflix..does it work properly for you.. It plays for me but fast speed.
And there are some really cool themes for the weapon rom in the themes section, or follow my sig.

Touch focus on video doesn't work for me but it does for camera. And honestly i have no complains except that i don't have a choice of storage..whether to SD or Internal.
Haven't really tried Netflix yet...but i will.
And just like what mmapcpro said...Weapon has some pretty sick themes.
I get a black screen after flashing the kernel..it wont boot up... I wiped cache. any ideas?
