How To Improve Photo Quality On Nexus 4

  1. Download an app to browse files (like root explorer or es file explorer, that file is free) you can download it from google play.
  2. Head in the /system/etc folder;
  3. Make sure the directory is mounted as writable (RW);
  4. Look for the media_profiles.xml file and open it with a text-file editor (es file explorer has one built-in);
  5. Once opened, you should find yourself with this text:
    quality EncoderProfile < = "1080p" fileFormat = "mp4" duration = "30" >
    < Video codec = "h264" bitRate = 12000000 " width = "1920" height = "1080" frameRate = "30"/>< Audio codec = "aac" bitRate = "96000" sampleRate = "48000" channels = "1"/>
  6. Change the bitRate from 12000000 to 20000000 (2 followed by 7 zeroes);
  7. Save and reboot.
  8. With this, you should have a 20 Mbit encoding which is definitely better than one of 12Mbit.


If you do not want to take part in this operation, there is however an application should perform a similar work, which you can download it directly from google play.
