Camera JB+
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moblynx.camerajbplus
After installing JB, video recording of LG Camera started producing videos with distorted images because of over compressing even with full HD.
I've recently found this application which is an advanced version of Google JB Stock Camera application and it works without any problems with 4X and produces better quality videos (the file size is doubled but the videos look much better.)
I recommend this application to every 4X user.

LG Camera is better but has a serious flaw in video recording. It uses a low video bitrate so videos look distorted.
This application uses a higher bitrate and recorded videos look much better than LG Camera. The cost of this is doubled file size.

I've been using LG camera pro for some time now and it works very well. No more focus issues for me at least.
It's missing a few functions like panorama shots and HDR, though filming is fine (i can set up bitrate to 100Mbits?).
If there's enough light. But I've got to say, this camera is much worse compared to One X. Esspecially in low light. Unless i'm missing something in settings, i always get grainy footage, while x ones is smooth and clear.
This camera apk has beter bitrate but only 22fps/sec

Thanks. I never fail to be amazed by how many people on here have bought devices worth hundreds of dollars, yet constantly refuse to spend a couple of dollars on an application to make it work better.
It's like buying a $2000 PC and refusing to purchase any software to run on it, or buying a $50k car and refusing to buy petrol.
I have tested this app in zaiben rom and it works. Videos are brighter and better in temrs of quality. The only bad thing is that the files are .3gp, like videos recorded in old phones.

Please view them on your PC to see the difference. Pay attention to the lower half of the picture.
I have had problems with 3rd party camera apps in CM10.1 such as ProCapture or Camera 360. Lots of nice options, but when taking a flash picture, it focuses, then takes several seconds then takes a shot almost by surprise. Can you confirm this app does not suffer from this problem?

3gp is just a container like mkv. The two applications both use the same h264 codec for video.

It captures photos with flash instantly on stock LG ROM and it has the cleanest user interface and options when compared to the applications you've listed.
Since the application does not have a trial version, you can use Google search to find the apk to try on CM 10.1.

Rename it to MKV or AVI.

You can't just rename one extension into another - even though those extensions are different in many ways. My opinion would be to use another camera which saves to avi or mkv files
I made more tests with flash and noticed that it lags when you touch the picture to change the auto focus point and then click the capture button.
It takes pictures instantly with flash if you just click the capture button without changing the focus point.

LGCamera is Camera application customize by Russian People.

Not same. in default Eclair, you cannot setting to highest resolution.
In modif Camera, you got setting until 5MP, Resolution up to 1280*720, you got convert to MPEG4 and H.264 format. I think this app is better.
Even if i changed settings ib lgcanera it only was changing resolution, but not the bitrate, thus making video recordings with high res, but low quality
EDIT: yeah, seems like i was trying old version of lgcamera, this version you have posted works fine and im starting to like it.

Do you have to uninstall the 2.1 Camera app before installing this one?
The reason i ask is is this app would crash when i tried to take a picture

Use this app for filming, not for picture taking, defoult app makes pictures very well.

Hello people.
A friend in another forum wanted some info about the p880 wether to buy it or not and wanted me to imfom him about the weaknesses of the 4X.
One thing in my opinion : The CAMERA APP.
After exchanging pms he recommended me some other app for me to test in case there is an improvement.I tested the LG camera pro and these are my observations
1) The lighting quality is equivalent to the modded camera app v5, since i had the tweak installed i didnt see any improvement nor drawback.
2) This app has many options to choose from such as audio and video bitrate quality.
3) Most importantly it has an option in both photo and video capture to set the autofocus to your need.To mention some of that setting it includes auto , infinity m macro , fixed and others which seem to make the difference at least in my point of view.
There is nothing to lose and test it for yourself and see the results.No root required.

This a completely different app. The LG Camera Pro was developed for the LG G2X/Optimus 2X. It's a great camera app, although i do like the O4X modded stock camera app. AS far as changing the audioand video bitrate, you can also do that with the O4X's stock camera. Although, i believe you can only do it through the hidden menu. 3845#*880#
So does it work on the 4x?

yes at dark places the lg app makes better pics, today i see bad quality too... really grainy
I too agree that the stock camera is better.I use this only to record video with autofocus disable .

Hey all
I have been so frustrated with the camera on this phone as it takes barely passable photos in daylight but low light its almost impossible to take photos that are focusd and aren't full of noise. The HDR shot is quite good but nothing special.
Also the photos are a little zoomed in and squashed down if compared against objects you've take the pic of.
So i searched around and came across Lg camera in the market.
It has a free version which seems fully featured which bugs you for purchasing it every now and again. The aspect ratio of the pics is correct and tt takes excellent low light shots especially with flash on and has less noise and focuses perfectly.
Just thought I'd share it see what people thought.
Cheers.
Tried it. Didn't notice a difference. Tried camera zoom fx and all three took the same photo. The autofocus algorithms on this phone are horrible.

Sorry to say but its totally different pics on mine to stock camera. If you cant see the difference then maybe there's a fault on your phones because lg camera is perfect for me in low light and has no focusing issues at all even in a pitch black room with flash on.
You can also set infinity focus which eliminates all need to focus at all so for me lg camera fixes the problem
Also the aspect ratios in the photos on stock camera are totally different when compared to lg camera so maybe you need to compare the pictures side by side. Lg camera is true to the scene, Google camera squashes everything down. Also the Google camera is zoomed in further than lg camera.
My phone has no focusing issues with this app now.
Camera zoom fx isn't really a camera app more of a toy but anyway hope it helps someone as its sorted the camera form me and I'm very picky.

Please do!
I tried lgCamera as well as other camera apps and saw no significant difference.
There are several aspects to the bad pictures problem.
- One is the limitations of the camera module which no app can fix.
- Then there's camera calibration. The LG Optimus 4X HD has the same camera module
but produces photos with less noise. There's room for improvement here but it is most
likely going to happen with a firmware update.
- Proper metering and scene evaluation will no doubt increase the picture quality.
Manual control is one avenue to peruse this but I haven't come across and app that
gives exclusive control over ISO and shutter speed. Some apps let you select one and
then automatically adjust the other.
Check out Camera FV-5.

The camera app itself doesn't really matter.
All the actual focusing/picture taking/etc is done by the kernel module. There is a userspace driver which translate commands from the camera API (its just ends up being a string that defines parameters in plan text) and based off of that it tells the kernel module to make those changes/perform those actions. It even defines the jpg compression quality and whatnot, so there isnt much the actual app itself does.

Level of compression certainly is set by the app. My FV-5 files are twice the size at the same resolution.

The camera app *suggests* the compression it would like, it doesn't do the compression itself. The userspace module instructs the camera kernel module to do the compression, and the build in DSP in the Qualcomm chip does the actual compression.

Hello good afternoon
I bought the maxx bike about 3 days ago, and it's an excellent cell phone, except for some things that are not optimized like the performance of the battery, which is solved with greenify.
I come from a motorola G1 and Alcatel idol 3, and I am astonished that the video recording on the moto maxx is inferior or similar to the one of these cell phones, I still can not find any app that will benefit you :/
Find an app that really took advantage of the photos, like the bacon camera or the HDR snap camera, but I still can not find an app that makes me satisfied with the video recording :/
Do you recommend any app for video recording?
A query, I occupy many social networks, and I just realized that when I try to record a video in stories is really horrible, it seems recorded in 240p, you know why that happens?
Edit: Here I found people with the same problem https://www.reddit.com/r/droidturbo/comments/57yy4p/instagram_story_camera_quality_on_turbo_1/
Greetings and thanks.
Your answer is in that thread:
I had the same experience with the photos as you described. Videos just look like garbage. FYI I just found out you can upload from your camera roll if you swipe down while in the story camera. I’ll test the quality and see if it is better when taken with the normal camera first.

I have been uploading from the camera roll and have been getting much clearer uploads compared to shooting in the app. I only use the main camera so I can't comment on the selfie camera. I imagine the app just is not optimized for the og turbo's camera. Maybe it will get better but I might have a new phone by then.

But currently the application has the option for live videos and just the rear camera looks horrible in this, while the front looks like you should see.

This sounds like an Instagram problem.
Are you running a custom ROM -- if so have you tried OTHER camera apps which are available? For instance, I have one of the Moto G cameras running on my Moto Maxx. There are others. Do they all have the same issue?
Hi Guys,
Just thought I share with you footage of some software stabilization of some 4k footage from my P20 Pro.
We all know that the stabilization on 4K mode is non existent (not even EIS) but adobe premiere can work wonders
Remember to set quality to 4K within YouTube
Let me know what you think
That works pretty well. Some odd effects from the software though, made it look like things were made of jelly when the camera moved.

Yes - Slightly
Might try to dial it down a small amount and then seeing the result
Hello,

Could you do a test to compare the results?
Open your original video with Google Photos, then go to setting, "Stabilize" and save.

Will do a comparison over the weekend to see the difference.
If you use opencamera or ultracorder (hevc) at 3k resolution (3264x1840) then EIS works nicely, looks really smooth. Admitedly it's not 4k, but its still much better than 1080p. I'm currently using ultracorder at 36.7mbit maintier level6.2 with EIS enabled and it really does look nice.
Can you share your Ultracorder settings mate? It's crashing on mine. Cheers!
