Hi,
Thanks for the app :)
I just tested ... But i have not noticed any improvement than the original camera.
On your app i set the jpeg quality to ultra,nothing :confused:
For the same picture with the original app the size of the picture with your app is smaller (same condition/same object) :confused:
Jpeg quality set to Ultra is not expected to reduce the compression?
Same for the video,with your app and bitrate *2:same size :confused:
For the video bitrate when you edit the media_profiles.xml by yourself the size of the video is bigger...
Or did not understand the purpose of this application about a quality improvement?
In any case thanks for this,visually it's perfect :)
I keep the app pending improvements in picture quality.
The rest of the settings works well.

Thanks Viking37!

The quality improvement was intended to people who have not edited the media_profiles.xml file.
The app gets the media_profiles.xml for image qualities (low/medium/high). Ultra is a 100 quality.
2x bitrate doubles the media_profiles.xml values (with a max. limit to avoid overflow).

Main work in the app was to make app Honeycomb (Android 3.1) tablets compatible. Now, I can work on global improvements! :)

Ok,but when i tested your app my media_profiles.xml was stock (no change).
And after set the jpeg quality to Ultra and the video bitrate to *2...my media_profiles.xml has not changed value,always stock :confused:
Maybe that's what made ​​that there is no improvement in picture quality,the media_profiles.xml is not changed with your app...
After reboot nothing is changed...
For edit the media_profiles.xml you need root access,your app does not ask for root access,or i am wrong for this?
In any case if i doesn't mount my system as r/w i can't edit the media_profiles.xml.

The app does not change or edit the media_profiles.xml. App only gets the values from this file (as stock camera does) and then uses the selected value on the "improved settings". Tell me if you have more questions or ideas to improve the app. Thanks again!

Is that work with 3.0.1 ?
I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1v but that don't work it all, when I start it, it's look like a Picasso =)

can you add
- an option to autofocus before snapping a picture
- option to use Volume button to snap a picture

these are the two most requested for the nexus camera. While autofocusing right before taking a picture doesnt make the nexus camera pic quality perfect, it greatly improves all pictures. I would definitely take that over zero-shutter lag.

Hi m3tallikris,

I think the app should work on 3.0.1, but I will check it again.
Thanks for reporting this issue.

Will test, thank you for this. A couple of things: won't download from market if you have modded screen density. Can you add widescreen? Burst shot? Turn on/off auto focus?

Edit: shooting side by side, indoor, poor light conditions, no flash. Stock image usual quality. Your app, same conditions, quality set to ultra, compression artifacts ARE GONE! This is great.

Hi all,

Thanks for the ideas to improve the app, I will try to include them!

m3tallikris I have some "good news", my acer iconia downgraded to 3.0.1 doesn't work. I will check this problem on my tablet.

cipheruin I'm not sure why the read SMS is required (I use the AOSP 4.0.3 as base). I promise that I will verify the code and remove this permission if it's not required for any feature.

Pierre118 Please, could you tell me your device model and Android version?

    Hi all,

    I've been working last weeks porting the app to add support to Android 2.2 & 2.3 (a lot more phones). :)

    Good news is that work is almost finished. Hard part to port was the Panorama mode because I had to convert from OpenGL/HW to SW.

    Original Panorama mode on Galaxy Nexus uses 960x720px as base frame to create the panorama. I will try to increase to 1440x1080px (4:3 format is required). The problem is that this resolution is not supported (only 1920x1080), also I don't know if I have some OpenGL texture limit on 1024x1024. :confused:

    I will release free version after the 2.2+ compatibility update. After that I will work on new features for all versions. :)

    Thanks again for the great feedback about the app. I'm really happy!

    Regards.

    Fantastic to see a JB update, but I do have a question. Is the ICS+ version going to see a JB merge, or is it essentially, a functional, yet dead app for those of us who purchased it while on ICS? I'm not trying to complain... simply wondering why a separate paid app was released, versus simply upgrading the existing application... Was the code too difficult to merge into the existing app, or was there some other kind of issue that prevented it? Either way, thank you for working hard to bring us great apps, both free and paid. :)

    Galaxy Nexus - Liquid JB v2 Beta 1
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Unfortunately I had to release "Camera JB+" as other app because 2 main reasons:
    - Google mixed Camera & Gallery app into one to make posible the fast swipe between camera & gallery.
    - Swipe between activities is only available since ICS, it's not posible to keep the support to Android 2.2 & 2.3 versions

    I will keep working on new features/improvements for both Camera ICS+ & Camera JB+.

    feature requests:

    anyway possible to actually use the volume rocker for "+/- exposure compenstion"? that's actually a very handy feature....
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    It would be a great feature, I will try on next version. Thanks for the idea.
