nope. just allow unknown sources and you'll be a-ok

just to let everyone know the camera app doesnt use the full 10mpx it only uses 5 or at least the app only has the option use up to 5mpx. also after installing it im noticing tearing in the viewfinder now with both camera apps.

Hello.
I got the Camera.apk but i notice that only work with 5MP on my moto X....

The free "focal" app in the play store has photosphere feature
in the play store, download the free app "focal" by "team BBQ." it was the camera app that was going to be in CyanogenMod. still in beta but it does do photosphere. here is the link to google play store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.xplod.focal

Did you guys have any problems with any "failed to connect to camera" errors after using/install the photosphere camera?

How well does this work? I mean, the stitching improved a lot in 4.4 on my nexus 4 but I was planning on buying the moto x to replace, I really like it but I don't want to lose photosphere.

anotherdroid from previous page provides a free download of the android camera/gallery. it works flawlessly...of course it also means you have two camera apps. i normally "twist" to open the moto x camera and the android camera on homescreen.

Anyone know if this version also does the Geotagging required to submit the photo sphere to create your own street view as Google has started allowing:

Looks like it. I did a test photosphere with the nexus gallery camera posted on the first page and uploaded it to G+. It is viewable there and if I click the details it looks to have all of the normal geolocation tags.
I'll try to do a real test this weekend.

Hrm so oddly, the images I upload to G+ with Nexus app are not viable on G+ in chrome on my PC. The Android G+ app views them OK. I wonder what is happening there.

Working like a champ on my KK Moto X. It does drop the resolution to 5MP but the shutter lag is significantly lower with this camera - which is why I wanted it. Thanks for the APK!

works great, but one issue
the app works great on my at&t moto x, however, i cannot upload the photosphere to google maps. when i click share to maps, it takes me to the app maps, instead of uploading. anyone experienced that too? (share to g+ or g+ photos works fine)

Will Using 3rd Party Camera Apps Bypass Moto Cam Probs?

Just wondering if the shortfalls with the Moto X camera can be subsided by using a 3rd party cam app?

Assuming it's all software issues, and not hard(firm)ware problems, then maybe. The OS can only manipulate so much of what the camera package delivers.

According to Marques Brownie he said the camera issues was related to the firmware, so an update from motorola would fix it... similar to the issue the Droid 1 had w/ its camera on launch

Well, he's just assuming. He's not an engineer at Motorola or anything and no other devices have this camera. Its usually not a good policy to hope and wait for updates in android land

Lenovo camera works full fledge on G-flex with multi options

Hi Guys,
trying to use the mod's which i used to use on my older devices. one of them is 'Lenovo Camera'
surprisingly it works 100% on our G-Flex including the gallery which comes with it PS: tested on only D958 hongkong.
here it goes. i feel it's beter than the stock Camera.

enjoy! all the credit goes to the original extractor. i'm sorry i forgot his refference
Confirmed working on Sprint G Flex (ls995) and lots of fun, great camera! I can even launch this (or other camera apps) using the Volume-down-on-lockscreen shortcut! Sweet!

Is it different then the OP? If so which one and why do you go with that version. Going to try it today.

I found the .apk in another thread here on xda, and downloaded the latest version there.. There are about 30 effects you can apply to photos, all which work great, panorama is fantastic, only issue I have is with Burst mode, it FC's on me :/ Not that I use burst mode often, but I was running the app through its paces.. It does come with it's own Gallery, which is a bit annoying, and they're baked into the same .apk, so no freezing option.. AND, there is no silent option for the shutter sound..

Stock camera app now with working download link!

Recently I started to use AICP as it seems to be the most stable for Verizon at the moment. The lack of the stock camera app kind of bugged me and I get that almost all roms will change the camera app. Some people hate the stock app others adore it and others got used to it. I have the apk for the stock app right here and it had been working flawlessly on my xt1575.
I will be uploading mirrors later tonight in case my Dropbox link isn't working
Sorry for the long wait but I'm finally back with a new mirror!!!! https://Bit.ly/1SQgll2
I take no credit for anything I just found the apk
This is not a flashable zip I can make one later if it's needed
This has not been tested on a xt1572 device. Either varient.
Feel free to test for me
If this works for you feel free to leave a comment and a thumbs. Or don't I don't care ?
Thanks. I to found that the stock camera is my preferred app. I had a backup with titanium and I just restored it to system. It works with the twist motion also. I'm on Slim Saber.

That one is ported from the moto g so I'm not positive if anything was changed although I'm pretty sure that the moto x style/pure camera app is the only camera app with the front flash as an option. Seeing as the moto g does not have a front flash it wouldn't make sense for the moto g to have that as option hence there may be a difference. This one came straight from the moto x pure and will most likely work on both varients of moto x styles in every rom. Hope this answers your question!

The Moto G version has the front-facing flash as well so i think that is taken from the X Pure also. It also has the advanced ladybug control activated and both camera and app are installable apks. The app also just got updated a few days back so it is the latest one.

I gotcha. See, when using the stock apk you posted (btw, thanks. ) everything is dandy except I cannot swipe right-to-left to get at the gallery. It just shows the grey placeholder screen. I'd love to have the camera integrated into something just so I can review the last picture taken or what have you.
Any thoughts?

Here's the Moto gallery. Move it into system/app, set permissions, reboot, and you're good to go. It's working fine on AICP for me.
Tyvm for this I'm also running AICP and missed the moto camera, hate the Google one. By any chance can anyone point me in the direction to get the moto gallery as well? Thanks in advance.
Lol you beat me to it thank you for upping the gallery link ^

Are you using moto camera, or another app?

I've been using the stock camera app, but have wondered if I'm missing something better.. I'm not a serious or good photographer by any means. Mainly looking for something simple, that allows save to SD that will take good pictures
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk 2
I use the Moto camera app that was stock on the phone. 2 reasons, first, if I want to take great pictures I use my dslr not a phone. Second, I love the twist of the wrist to start it. Usually if I am using my phone to photograph it is because a quick something is happening or about to happen and I can twist my wrist as I bring it up to my face level and the camera app is open and ready to use. Just my 2 cents.
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
Exactly, I have the same feelings about moto camera. Also you can record video very quickly (no need to change mode like in other apps). Slow motion video is quite fun too. The only thing that I hate is that it doesn't have built in gallery like for example google cam which leads to delays and bugs.
I'm using HTC Camera and it works well.
Snapdragon camera, which I'm really liking.
I'm using Moto camera but the newer version (camera1) ported from Moto G which adds in a better UI and some manual controls
For pics I use the Google Camera with the HDR+ enabled, it takes great shots when there's a lot of light, Moto camera it's ok, but I rather use Google's. I'm also using Footej (haven't used it that much but so far so good!).
Since I'm rooted I have Xposed, whith the Twisty module I can enable the wrist twist to open any of the cameras I want as default.
For my use of a camera and I have tried many, I really like Open Camera from the Play Store. It offers some of the best options and features without getting all gimmicky.
Using two camera apps, Camera1 from the play store (Motorola's New Camera) for taking pictures and Open Camera for video recording
I have been using "DSLR Camera" from the store for about the last two years. Does everything I want with no fuss.

But don't think it would suit as a system app because there are way to many features
I prefer SnapDragon Camera. I believe you must have a caf kernel in order for it to work correctly.
