Ok so basically I am posting this thread because I figured out for sure why the LG Camera will not work on GB. It is not a lack of drivers like everyone has said. Basically when the Camera.Apk(LG Camera) is launched it looks for Libamce.so (i figured this out by reverse engineering the LG Camera and found the referrence on where it looks for the shared library libamce.so.) I went ahead and tried to push the LG Camera with the libamce.so yet still got a force close, this time the error was a reloc lbrary error looking for a _NZCamera6Connect function. I then went ahead an decompiled the libamce.so and found that it depends on libnvomx.so, then I decompiled libnvomx.so and found that it depends on libm.so, then I tried pushing all three libs to GB and still got a force close. After digging deep enough I found that libm.so depends on libcamera_client.so which I also decompiled and then I found the _NZCamera6Connect fuction is contained here. I attempted to push the libcamera_cleint.so to to GB and boot failed, then I tried editing the update-zip file to include the libcamera_client.so (From Froyo) and boot also failed. I am positive that once we get this libcamera_client.so ported from FROYO to GB the LG Camera will work. Luckily there is no dependency on the framework. This is where I need your help since I know your the dev who made EB possible or any Dev thats out there Faux, Morific Thanks.

Here is the header of the decompiled libamce.so just in case:

I'm no dev, but I just want to thank you for continuing to try and bring the LG cam to Gingerbread. Hopefully a dev will gladly help you out with this issue. Once again thank you for taking the time to try and get this hard headed app to work.

[depricated as of 9/5/11 - history of lgcam on gb]

Update (8/3/11): LG CAM for CM7 removed until fixed. Too many people were flashing on MIUI and CM7 Based ROMS
New Version for Stock OTA based ROMS coming out tonight.
Proposed fixes include -> 24/30 FPS @ 1080P and Zoom while video recording
Also moved some of the original OP two posts down to clean up the OP.


Update(8/2/11): LG Cam for CM 7 Beta
Below is what you have all been asking for, it is a beta of LG Cam for CM7. If you are willing to take the risk go ahead and flash BUT FIRST MAKE SURE YOU NANDROID. I have also attached CM7 Cam again if it fails to work and/or if you wish to go back. Please update the thread with any errors, logcats preferred.

Edit: Update(8/2/11 @ 4:42AM EST) below.
I was able to Port the LGE folder from GB to CM7 into the framework successfully however now when I open the CAM I am getting a null pointer exception. Anyone willing to help here please.

major update 7/28/11

working lg cam on 2.3.3 ota & xborders stock rom (huge thanks to jumaaneface) once the cam is confirmed working on cm7 & aosp the bounty will be paid. I will also be looking into the actual cam app by decompiling source to see if we can fix the 1080p recording to make it record at 30 fps.

Again thanks to all the supporters and to jumaaneface who made this possible.

update(7/27/11): Bounty increased to $100.00 thanks to:

major update (7/26/11)
since the ota is official and the lg cam is not contained i am starting a bounty at $75.00 for the first person who can figure this out. I have tried numerous attempts using different approaches to no avail. There are others in the thread who mentioned they will also put up a bounty. I alone will pay $75.00 plus whatever anyone else decides to throw in the pot.
update 3 (7/22/11): Attempted again to change some files in the framework and upon boot logcat threw error for missing decl from the camera$files in the framework. I pushed the libcamera_client.so from froyo and then the messaged changed to this:

update 2(7/22/11) : Flashing eb 1.0.5 gr v21e rom with modified framework and it failed, so i pushed libcamera_client.so and it failed, error below

update 7/22/11 - working on patching and porting elements from the froyo framework to gb


(7/21/11)major update: Lg releases stock gb rom v21e however lg cam is not on board. This thread will.continue until we can successfully port the lg cam to gb.


update 7/20/2011:

here is the header of the decompiled libamce.so just in case:

anybody try contacting faux or morfic to see if they could take a look? They are both very cool guys. I can talk to them if you want.

I have a silly question? If you use titanium back up and restore the LG camera would that work? If not, why?

I contacted both of them plus numerous devs.

I know it wont work but I couldnt tell you why. I thought the same thing and have tried it.

Doesn't Titanimum just back up the apk file and not the compiled shared object?

Even so it'd be scary to think that it would somehow overwrite shared objects, potentially breaking the OS.

I believe that what has been explained above is that there are libraries that the apk depend on to function that are not available on CM7 at the moment. (I could be wrong though)

yeah it's a similar reason if you backup DSP Manager from CM7 and try to install it on stock it will basically do nothing.
