So... does the third party camcorder app work? If it does, I'm sold.
I have tried a couple of third party camera and camcorder apps. So far, it has consistently been the case that the camera works fine, camcorder allows a view but does not record (the best I got was a blank file recorded), and the panorama cameras do not work at all.
Of course, your system may work better on mine, but from what I've read on this forum, no one else has done much better.
I would like the camcorder and panorama to work, but it is not a deal-breaker for me. I am confident that someone will figure it our, probably soon. The camera is the part I cared about, and that has worked for a bit now.
I know that tdm is working very hard to get the last few items going, and I am pretty sure he wants to get this ROM out as beta as soon as possible. With so much working well on these last few versions, I am very content to sit back and wait patiently. There are some very bright and hard-working folks on these boards, I like to give them room to do their thing.
