Hi there, I'm a new convert (iOS to android) tongue.gif
Just got my gs2 , rooted, custom TouchX and speedmod kernel.
However, noticed serious framerate drop when taking 1080p with the cam, even outdoor

Any fix to it? Never noticed this in ios4 era...hope its not hardware related! Any experience this??
Anyway, I have used iOS since its birth in 2007 laugh.gif

dear galaxians,
I tried to read this thread finding answers to my video recording framerate woes, but this thread is 2F2F! haha

anyway, i am requesting helpful forumers here to test your video recording @ 1080p.

1) Go to a room dimly lit, like your office.
2) Flick your GS2 to video @ 1080p.
3) start recording.
4) Pan left and right, slowly and quickly
5) Playback and check if any framerate drop; like lag, stutters..
6) Report back.

In the xda forums, many has complained but no permanent fix yet. It's a bit disappointing knowing S2 being high-end device suffers from such low fps when recording.


Hope most of you can report your findings. Thanks all!

Touchwiz 4.0 / 4.5 is the smoothest launcher out there. I tested almost all kind of third party launcher (from ADW to Zeam) and they all lag slightly when I place some heavy widget (third party calender) and scroll between it. Live wallpaper too, it doesn't lag when scrolling through the app drawer (GO Launcher lag when live wallpaper is used).

Btw, I am using 4.5 too! Buggy, but the extra feature over the original 4.0 always make me irresistible.  biggrin.gif

1) I experience your problem before too. Was using custom kernel (ninphetamine). After switching to stock kernel everything work flawlessly. Now still sticking to custom ROM and kernel. No need to worry about random reboot or whatsoever.

Many claim that it is due to the firmware problem.

Two temporary solution:
1) Use 720x480 resolution (no autofocus)
2) Reduce exposure according to the light condition of the environment (-2.0 will completely eliminate the problem). thumbup.gif

yes, it's very choppy in low light....what i did was to flash the cam firmware. Now it's ok but lost the flashlight function during video recording. camera shooting still has flash though.

Wow! May I have the link to where you get the firmware? I don't mind sacrificing flashlight on video recording.  blush.gif

google SIEG03 cam firmware. u need to flash it using certain code.
yes, no more stutter in low-light.

first i thought its hardware prob. that's why i asked in this thread but no one seems to notice this. luckily, it's just programming prob that can be solved by flashing unofficial cam firmware.

I saw the thread at XDA already. Doing a NANDROID backup before flashing it.  flex.gif

actually , it's pointless doing nandroid backup coz it's not going to flash ur ROM.
this is just flashing ur cam firmware. nothing's gonna change except ur cam fw.
nandroid wont backup ur cam fw....
