Due to the great work done by mohit1234 at XDA forum, we can manage to get a better LG Nexus 4 camera. It is a very special hack that can improve the quality of video, audio and image quality. It will increase the video bitrate to 20mbps.

Pre-Requisites

1. Unlocked and rooted LG Nexus 4

How to improve Camera Audio/Video/Image Quality Steps:

1. Using a file browser (like root explorer/es file explorer etc) go to the /system/etc folder
2. Make sure your system is mounted RW
3. Search for the media_profiles.xml file and open it up in any text editor
4. Once you scroll down you will see the following:
   • <EncoderProfile quality="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" />
             </EncoderProfile>
5. Change the bitRate from 12000000 to 20000000
6. Save, make sure permissions are rw-r–r– and then reboot.

Caution: I will not be responsible for any loss or damage. It’s entirely your risk to download and install the software. Make you clear that this may contain bugs.

The instructions seems a little complicated to noobs. But never mind, following we will provide you an easy way to mod the camera.
