Flashing a custom ROM is fun, but it is sometimes at the cost of losing features that you actually love from your stock ROM. To be specific, the stock camera app is the only thing these days that takes full advantage of your device’s camera capabilities. But when you switch over to a AOSP based ROM like CM12.1, the good camera capability gets traded.
However, if you happen to own a Moto X 2014 and running CM12.1 but wishing to get the stock Motorola Camera on CM12.1, then fredamsouza over at xda has your wish granted. The user managed to get Moto Camera 5.0.21.4 to work on his Moto X 2014 running CM12.1.
And as a kind gesture to the community, fredamsouza has also shared a recovery flashable zip file for installing Moto Camera and its supported lib to ensure the camera works flawlessly on CM12.1.
You can grab the recovery flashable moto-camera-v0.1.zip file from the download link below and flash it using a custom recovery of your choice, without wiping cache or anything else.
