Guest Jpower73 Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) With this simple trick, you can get (interpolated) photos using lgcamera (free or paid) at 21,6mp or any other "more than high" analysis. 1. Install S5 rom 2. Install lgcamera 7.0 3. Set resolution to 21,6mp or any other high indication, ex. 20,3mp etc, according to your needs. 4. Backup the installed photo capture application (with data) using titanium backup.. .. 5. Install any rom you like. 6. Restore, from titanium backup, the previously archived photo capture application. 7. Voila, you have 21,6mp!!! Caution: do not change photo capture resolution. There's no 21,6 mpixels indication to select. So, it will be lost.. In case you do it, by mistake, just re-restore the apk from titanium...... Using this trick you can get the most out of your camera. I know, it is interpolated. But i get the best pictures by far... Works on any rom!!!

Guest SeerJ Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Anyone could do the backup and share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 77chedu Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) Have you tried decompressing the apk.gz from your titanium backup folder and see if the resulting apk is installable? If you could upload it somewhere, Jpower73, for us to test, it would be nice Efjaristó EDIT: A free app would be better, because it could then be incorporated to any custom rom Edited March 28, 2015 by 77chedu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jpower73 Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) Tested on 3 different roms...

Guest 77chedu Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Thanks, the resulting apk it's installable, after decompressing is indeed installable, but it only shows 13M. It doesn't show the 20+ megapixels on its settings, though. It seems to work restoring it with titanium, with all 3 files Could you do the same with Open camera or some other free app?

Guest Jpower73 Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) That's the spirit... :) This is happening because sgs5 uses a much more advanced cmos sensor so the camera libs are suited for this.

Guest 77chedu Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Ok thanks anyway, great tip. Could you add the download link to the S5 rom to the first post, it would be easier to follow for whomever may read the thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jpower73 Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) I'm using a payed version of the apk. Sorry, Can't add it according to the rules. Besides , there are many photo screen sizes, above 13megapixels, except 6000χ3600. Edited March 28, 2015 by Jpower73 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 77chedu Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) An alternative method to test different cameras (apps) with S5 "ported" resolutions, could be just installing a bunch of them and make an update.zip with Titanium. Or you can make different zips with the same camera and different resolutions I have yet to try if data/data extracted from the titanium backup, works if added to a rom zip. The extracted apk works fine If so, maybe it could be implemented on a script or something, to get interpolated resolutions on any given rom/camera without having to make the whole "round trip" from S5 and back to your favourite rom Edited March 29, 2015 by 77chedu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jpower73 Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Personally, I'll do that with lgcamera and a better camera. I'll create 2 update.Zip, using titanium backup, at 20mp. Even so, since we are talking about a cellphone, not a professional camera, i think lgcamera at 20mp and at the dimensions given above, probably should cover the needs most of us. :) So, keep lgcamera at 20+mpixels and install a better camera, as an alternative, to shoot at 13 or any lower analysis... Or use the stock camera application.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 77chedu Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) Ok, Jpower73, both your apk and data/data/rubberbigpepper.lgCameraPro/shared_prefs from your titanium backup, do work if added to a rom zip on a fresh installation without having to restore the backup So I think that that sets a path for including cameras with interpolated resolutions on any rom God I hate LGcamera UI... It looks so dated. If it weren't for that, I'll include the free version on every rom/mod: it has good performance, lots of functionalities and it's fairly small Edited March 29, 2015 by 77chedu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And best of all, in lgcamera you can "lock" auto exposure and white balance, "on the fly", with just a simple touch. No need to search into menus.
