Root [Sprint] [MOD] Increase Camera Audio/Video/Image Quality (Updated Link - 3/6/2013)

Before you do anything, DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!!!! I am not responsible for any mistakes that you make or if anything happens to your phone.

I have seen many people on here complaining about the camera/video recording and audio. So I decided to do a little research and well this is what I got. Many thanks go to mohit1234 as he actually compiled this for the Nexus 4 and I reached out and asked him if it would work for our device since they are so similar and I gave him our copy of media_profiles and this is what he suggested. I will continue to test out more values and try to make the camera the best it can be!

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Download file and put it on the root of your memory
  • Reboot into recovery
  • Clear Cache/Dalvik Cache (Just to be safe...)
  • Install Camera Mod
  • Clear Cache/Dalvik Cache (Just to be safe...)
  • Reboot!
  • ????
  • PROFIT!!!

These are the changes so far(12/25/2012):
1) Increased 1080p bitrate to 20mbps
2) Increase audio bitrate to 320kbps for both 720p and 1080p
3) Changed audio channels to 2 for 1080p

More changes, more towards image then video(12/29/12):
1) Doubled the image decoding memory cap to 40mb
2) Increased all image encoding quality values to 100

Small tweaks, nothing really to list, just getting it polished up!(1/12/2013)

Hope this can inspire more findings and more ways to make the image and video quality better!

WARNING: Make sure you make a backup (TWRP is the only recovery that it will work on) because I messed with a few other values and got bootloops and had to restore a backup!

DEVELOPERS: You can use this to incorporate in your ROM, just please make sure you give credit. That is all I ask for. :)

THANKS TO: AdriVelazquez/Beezy420 for creating this ZIP to easier install the mod!
 
I haven't been on androidforums in a while. But figured I would post this over here for anyone who doesn't venture to XDA forums. :)

Also, You must be rooted and unlocked and running a custom recovery to do this.
 
Good to see ya here _epic.
