I have a small Android app I am building to apply filters/effects on a picture taken from the camera or from the image gallery. So far I have blur, sepia, emboss, b&w, contrast, etc. However, the one I am looking for seems to be hard to find using google. I would like to apply the toy camera effect as well. I see a lot of Android apps doing this, but I can't find the algorithm to implement to Android.
Does anyone know how I can achieve this?

As @You said above the toy camera effect is more than likely a number of adjustments. In my experience you should look into adding a vignette (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vignetting) and emulating E6/C41 cross processing. Cross-processing can be easily achieved by manipulating the individual RGB channel such as the curves shown here http://www.reynsphoto.com/articles/Post_Processing/html/Digital_cross-processing_C-41_as_E-6.php. Furthermore, you can add a slight yellow tint.
hope this helps
