That seems to be a pretty old camera that shoots MPEG1 video which is an outdated format. Also the STD setting shoots in 16,6 frames a second (the FINE setting seems to shoot at a more standard frame rate of 30fps) so that will be a/is probably the problem.
So what exactly do you want to stabilize? The only thing I’d stabilize is the dolly moves at the end of the clip and I got it pretty smooth with Warp Stabilizer set to stabilize position.

I would suggest not using phone camera footage native. They have a bunch of different issues that can pop up. Dennis already suggested transcoding and that’s what I’d do too.
