Hi is't possible to buy a LG Optimus G 13MP camera module and put it to our Nexus 4? They say Nexus 4 and LG Optimus G has almost identical hardware.?!
Wouldn't the 13 MP OG have a different camera connector then the Nexus? If we did manage to get the hardware connection, the drivers and libraries are going to have to be ported to use the module... I've actually heard that the 13 MP module actually takes worse pictures then the 8 MP module anyway... Megapixels aren't everything
Even if you could switch the cameras the Nexus 4 doesn't have the necessary software to utilize the camera's potential like on the Optimus G.

Optimus G ROM might already have the drivers to utilize the hardware of an Optimus G. The developer even said himself that almost nothing was edited in the port

Hey, I work at a cell shop and I compared the Optimus G screen to my Nexus 4s today. The blues were so much more vivid on the Optimus, it was strange. I thought both had the same hardware. Could it be the software?
I think I saw a kernel before with screen controls,can somebody link me to it?

Could be software, as there have been reports of loss of color quality when installing a recent OTA update for the Nexus 4. Custom kernels can change the color balance, and Google itself may fix the issue later as well. The hardware itself should be the same
We should let Google know and make them tune it better
Hey I have an Optimus G along side my Nexus 4 and haven't been able to match the Optimus G screen colors with the Nexus 4.
They run the same hardware yet the G has a much nicer picture. It is even nicer than the HTC One's!
I have Franco. Kernel updater installed and have tried a few calibrations but to no avail. Is there any hope?
Ps don't flame me going on about how the Nexus is best, it is not.

Ah come one! try to be nice hahahaha. Actually LG has several software display adjustments not implemented on Nexus 4 due to Google.
May be some day they port it to Nexus 4. Nothing so far.

The Nexus 4's color's are a little washed out IMO, but since you have the Franko.Kernel updater, I'm going to assume you are rooted and have a custom kernel like Franco's or Faux's kernel. In that case, increase your saturation values in small increments until you're comfortable with those colors. If you're on stock kernel, I don't think you can expect too much, unless you flash one of PA's calibrated kernels.
Short answer: Yes there is hope. And there have been solutions to tackle this for quite a while. Just look around the dev forums.
Actually haha hope is diminished. The Optimus G has a higher ppi than the nexus 4. My friend just told me and it makes perfect sense because the Optimus G has a sharper screen.

Nexus4 is the best and the screen is vibrant with most custom kernels! Get over it or sell it.
Pretty sure they are the same screens, same ppi.
With the FKU app there are a whole set of example colour profiles, but you have to hit a menu item to load them up. You will probably be able to find one that you like, and then you can tweak it a bit further if you want.

The two phones have identical screens (In fact, most of the hardware is identical). The only difference is that the LGOG has different calibration. I don't know the exact calibration, but I know that the faux kernel has an option to set it to the OG calibration (LG presets). I just use the halfbreed calibration that I tweaked a bit on my Nexus, and it looks great
I'm not questioning your opinion on the colours but the screens are definitely the same model so you thinking the OG has a sharper display is probably just a placebo effect due to the colours. Since have the same displays you should really be able to match the colours using franco's app. Aside from the iPhone 5's screen I haven't seen a screen that has better colour reproduction than my N4's. Then again, I haven't seen a One or a OG yet either.
My eyes dont lie. Ive been using both and the Optimus G is more of a pleasure to use.

That may well be true, but I can guarantee that the OG's screen isn't sharper. Better calibrated maybe, but definitely not sharper.

Well about Nexus 4 VS Optimus G maybe Optimus G is better but the HTC One (Not One X) should have a way better screen...

While you may like the image better, sadly the eyes are the ultimate liars lol. I do home theater and HDTV calibration for a living, 10 years going...and I there isn't enough time in the day for me to tell you how horrible most people have their HDTV set when I get there, or while I'm calibrating ask why it isn't brighter or why did it look so much better in the store Lmfao. I always give the customer what they want but with the advice that having your screen at 9000k is not giving you the most true representation of the intended image but to each their own. I assure the same thing is happening here with your phone

As said in the title...
Here are my results... https://plus.google.com/108758880122370937236/posts/8jbVpuv3M7m I don't want to use the tablet as a camera but at now it's my only Photosphere device and I'd like to get something better.
Have you had any luck with camera quality?

I don't think the picture is bad at all. Remember, it's only 5mp.

I didn't expect a lot, so I'm not disappointed. I did do a comparison of cameras on old and new Nexus 7:

The back camera certainly seems to be a lot redder in the same light as the front camera.
Considering the size of the lens - those are pretty nice pictures. You might need an SLR with a big chunk of glass for what you want.

It's what I expected from a 5 megapixel camera. That's why they still cameras .
I'll assume you are right
Not a big SLR, compact cameras would do the job

It's alright with good lightning. Other then that, I agree the camera is horrible. Keep in mind it's 5mp, you should of already knew that before you bought it.

At least Asus & Google had include the back camera unlike the first generation.

Lol. It's a tablet. If you want a great camera sorry but like I did... You have to buy a camera! The camera isn't bad for it being a cheap tablet that does a billion different things and also has a 1080p screen.
Hello everyone. Just wanted to check if there is a real actual port of the native lg g 2 camera for lg g2 cyanogenmod 11? Checked some ported cameras, but the low light sensitivity, the 60 fps recording function and the overall pictures sharpness and quality are all missing. What's more, all these ports of for cyanogenmod 10. Kindly help.

I'd really appreciate this. You haven't heard/tested anything?
Hey all. I love the Note 7 camera program. Due to that and the fact that the front camera of the V20 has no flash, can the note 7 camera app be ported over? It looks like to me the Note 7 front flash is software based and not an actual flash. Correct me if im wrong.
No.

Not at all.
As I understand it, the Samsung camera is pretty tightly bound to the Samsung ecosystem.
