AMAZING Scalado

does anyone know what is Scalado Remove and Scalado rewind

you can check them out here:

remove: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=flNomXIIWr4

rewind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=J5EcUjwLr9k

these are features that HTC put in ONE X

wouldn't it be nice if we have them too?

AND 60FPS, when do you think we can have it MR. HyperX ?

The photo during recording video don't work for me...all the rest is amazing!

Stock rooted ROM
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] shahud:
^^^This would be amazing.

I was also wondering if we have a slow motion video mode on the GS3 and, if we don't, is it possible to add it.

Thanks.

Hi,

I downloaded and checked your pic but can not find any information about ISO, Aperture, focal length and shutter speed. Please help me to find and show it in your pic!

---------- Post added at 01:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 AM ----------

Just checked carefully and found that:

1. No information when take photo in HDR mode. I mean and need ISO, Aperture, focal length and shutter speed first.

2. With v1.35, almost other modes, pics has full information on it. Sometimes, no data same HDR mode.

I love your works and thank you very much :)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] can7:
those are some cool features are they possible HyperX ?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] kultus:
so I found time to try your mods on Omega v4.2 and I can say its working!!!

Stil some suggestions, after pause and again recorded video (used vol down) there is some 0,5s ugly artefacts in the video!!! Dont know why (used fine quality option). And the second thing please in photocamera mode remove sound with using vol down reallydisturbing disgusting sound. Otherwise its a miracle.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] hyperX-:
I noticed these artefacts too... maybe this is why Samsung has removed PAUSE option in the original app, the sound you here is because it´s still mapped to the "real" System vol. down/up sound i haven´t figured this out yet... i also noticed that i have forgotten to add the "run camera bellow 15 % battery, i will upload the fixed version tomorrow, this will be also my last version for the next ~10 days, because i will be in Holiday... Maybe later i will be able to add some new features. Unfortunately there aren´t any news about the "60 fps" mode.....
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] kultus:
OK thanks, I think the photo quality is superb, but is it any option to make it even better?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] MasterElwood:
25fps maybe? and better sound?

Oh - and have a save trip!

HyperX, Love your work with the camera app! Now to real deal. Could you make an version for 260dpi users. The problem is shown in these images: http://i.imgur.com/Ry3ic.jpg and http://i.imgur.com/stBdg.jpg. Background behind camera buttons doesn't scale according the dpi.

Getting a camera failed message today and app FC. Worked yesterday. I've since installed some Samsung account stuff and apps. Would this affect the app?

Oh, I may have installed siyah kernel after this mod, but may have been before. Can't remember.

Can i install the .apk file on a stock ROM? I haven't root my S3 yet.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Thomas.:
Is possible to take video in 720p and 60fps?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] apatch:
Thank you for this mod, didn't tried it yet but got a question.

This is probably known problem but all android phones seems to be affected with that, when I'm playing music with PowerAMP or some other player and take a picture in the same time, music stops for the moment and then play again, is this in some way connected with that so stock camera plays shutter sound in the time of taking a picture ?

EDIT - Worst thing in the stock camera is that when I am listening a music thru headphones, and then take a picture, for a moment music stops playing, shutter sound is heard in the main speaker and in the same time music from a player is heard from a main speaker too for a second ! Then it comes back to headphones so it's even more frustrating - shutter and player sound coming from a main speaker in the same time.

Is it somehow avoided in your mod when shutter sound is disabled or that highly advanced system with multitasking capabilities and pretty strong hardware is just badly designed and can't do such a simple thing which old Nokia E51/52 and other simbian phones do ?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] crazybyte:
Maybe it's possible to do the same with stock ICS camera?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Se23:
Checked my videos from lovebox yesterday and from today at the park and the quality is so much improved. I still have shutter sounds and rest of problems most have but it's awesome.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] starbucks2010:
Where is the link to 1.35 version ?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] adchesney:
I have also never "rooted" and wonder if v1.35 can be used with stock ROM.

The only "root" stuff I've done was root canal treatment - and that was both costly and Painful.

Hey Hyper, what would it take to get this to function on the SGSII Skyrocket? I have been messing around with the stock samsungcamera.apk file a bit and out of the box it doesnt work. Gives FC errors. Im wondering if its as simple as installing the lib files along with the apk file, or if there is maybe more integrated into the framework. From my understand the hardware on the skyrocket and on the SGSIII are identical. We are trying to port the camera so we can use the burst feature and the buddies feature. Let me know what you think, your opinion is highly regarded! Thanks

Camera NOT working

after flashing the Camera MOD my phone app opens but doesn't show anything and gives me the note that: My camera hardware could not work and i need to hard reboot. (which i did)

i flashed stock Camera - replaced Camera.apk - Cache a Dalvik - and finally flashed the rom (Omega 5.1) again BUT my camera didn't fix

NOW WHAT?

what should i do?

UPDATE: so i flashed another (stock) rom and it worked again. (thank god) i thought it's the hardware that is broken. now i don't know if i could use this MOD again or not. Should I ?

@HyperX:

Sorry to spam around here...as I fell in love with your SGSIII mod, I really have to ask you, how much work it would be to develop a similar mod for the Galaxy Note...I owned both devices, still not sure which one I will choose on the long term - and I want to know if I will miss this mod when sticking with the note :)

it works fine but i have the refocus sound and the capture sounf on v1.35 can you fit it pls

greetz nice work !
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gramrock:
Too bad.. i wanted to install that but it seems like too many ppl have probs...

but for the future, if i wanna install this, is the first post still correct ?

1. delete the camera app manually

2. install via cwm

or can i install it directly on my rooted stock rom ?

would be awesome if the cwm install would have the line to remove the app or bakc it up
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] fbloise:
This is how it worked for me. I was having some issues and the Cwm version did it.

Do you plan to release a version of camera increasing the FPS to 60 even if size is reduce

This will allow to do some slow motion movie

new feature: during video now you can take photos by pressing the capacitive "menu" button"

hi all of you, i installed with apk, the samsung camera, moving it in system/app(early i moved samsung camera.apk e samsung camera.odex in other place) tha camera work fine ( 20" and 230Mb...amazing) but i can't take a picture while i try to record a video..what does is the capacitive menu' button?? tks!!

Can we get this to work on CM9? It's awesome and the dafault cyanogenmod camera app comes a bit short...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] katamari201:
The lack of bass in audio, and the audio distortion in voices, are still present in the US version. An audio fix is still very much needed. I think the GS3 records at good enough video bitrate for me. I am immensely concerned more for the audio. The audio actually sounds worse now in the US version in some respects, since it has less of that walkie talkie sound but now is so bass-less everytime I watch a video it feels like I am hearing something in my head but I don't feel it resonating through the rest of my body, a strange out of body feeling. I will be getting the US version so an additional fix for the S4 model would be immensely appreciated.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Dr4g0n:
first off all, thanks for this f*cking awesome camera mod :)

now a little question, can you buld a mod for the aokp version?

the aokp is better than the stock rom.. but the camera.apk is.. *****.

i tried it but the android installer say only "cant install" ...

and with a cwr recovery installer its the same... no chance..
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gilg@mesh:
you cant use the Samsung camera app with CM9/AOKP, touchwiz framework is needed
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] sstanton86:
even better would be less compression in still images. I don't use the video as much, I prefer a bit of the old fashioned photography myself! But images can look like they're compressed too much?:(
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] tryerxda:
Downloading now, and will test later this afternoon.

One question:

Would it be possible to have an option that automatically takes pictures while recording video? Like, click Record, and the video starts recording, and it automatically takes pictures in background without having to press the key.

This is just because the tapping is sometimes audible in the video.

Also, lets say I have a 1 minute clip of 1080p video, and that during the video I took a picture every second. (60 pics)

Would it be possible to get higher resolution final video if we put the video through an encoder, using the full res 8MPix pictures as keyframes (Intraframe) and the standard video frames as P or B frames?

(I realize the true resolution of the video wouldn't increase, but if we look at a divx movie, the Intraframe is very high resolution, while the P or B frames are relatively low res. So I'm guessing we'd be able to get some pretty sweet results from a little post-processing.)

EDIT: What I meant here was:

1 - Would it be possible to allow pics to automatically taken while recording video?

2 - If yes, then we could put this through a video encoder on a computer to do the actual conversion. (I know we have a quad core... but I doubt encoding video this way would be feasible on the device itself)

BTW: tested the app out, and it's great! Tested standard pics, pano, beauty shot, Party mode and Zoom, which are basically what I use, and they all work 100%

Many thanks, hyperX!!!

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gramrock:
sounds interesting man... Hope hyper can do that...

I wanted to install this mod but the data size is like twice as big and ****s up the sd card and internal sd, and since the quality isnt that much better i wont install it, but ur idea could keep almost the same filesize while the quality is way better...

What could bring me to install this mod would be a sound fix, a preset built in equalizer that configures the sound channel better since Samsung seems to be unable to keep up their work from previous devices (galaxy nexus has a waaaaay better audio in videos for example).

so pleae Hyper, please try to build in an equalizer and configure it correctly for better audio.

I would install ur mod instantly. !!

Hello, can you please explain the steps you took to install the camera app? I have only rooted my phone and that is all. US version, Sprint. Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] galaxy.S3:
If you have allready a custom rom installed: replace original SamsungCamera.apk in system\app\ with this one using e.g. "Root explorer" or something...

You need a rooted Device !

other then that on Stock Rom delete or move SamsungCamera.apk AND SamsungCamera.odex from system\app\ folder....

Then simply insert the SamsungCamera.apk and set the permissions.

Finally restart

Thats from the first post.

with the phone connected to your pc place this camera mod file on your phone.

Then get the Root Explorer app, use that to locate the old camera files ( as described above ) and delete them.

Then using root explorer move the modded camera file you placed on the phone with your pc to the correct folder location ( see above )

change the permissions of the file to rw,r,r with root explorer and then restart the phone.

if the volume buttons work to start recording video it has worked.

Note, i still have the camera shutter sounds so dont use that as a check to see if it has worked.

hope that helps.

I've seen a few times guys on escalators (particularly on the tube) trying to take pictures underneath the skirt of whatever girl is ahead of them, at least with a camera sound it's more likely that someone will notice and stop them or report them to staff.

dont want to 'f' everything up but don't want shutter and zoom sounds either.

I do not really notice any improvements in video quality between this modded cam and Samsungs original camera.

I did some tests and done a 10 second recording.

Normal room lighting, Outdoor at night, and Outdoor daytime.

I then played clips on my PC side by side and froze various frames.

I found no improvements. The only real difference was that the mod made files sizes much larger @ approx. 3.5mb/s as opposed to the standard 2.2mb/s, and with modded cam the recording had more noise, meaning that my videos looked worst in low light.

I am using omega 6.0 and have since restored to the stock cam, but kept the silent camera [no shutter sound] feature.

Has anyone else tested this against stock camera, what are your experiences? would love to know your findings.

Haha I still remember you I had de i8910hd that device really had 0 support from Samsung wise, thanks fir the great ROMS xD that was the reason I bought a Milestone 2 instead of the S2(but got the s3 now anyway xD)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] grande25:
I had the same problem and this was my first expeience with a smartphone.. ever. I basically searched for apps that could do root level file management. There's a paid one that everyone seems to love for $3.99 iirc but I ended up using a couple of free ones that got the job done.

I used "Root Uninstaller" to get rid of the stock apk camera file and I used "Ghost Commander File Manager" but for the file manager to work you have to set it for root level in the settings and you have to tell it where to find your busybox executable.

Hope that helps.

If you can't find where busybox is there is an app called busybox installer that will give you info or you might just find it looking around in the forums. The default location from the installer is a bit different from where I found mine..

Welcome back and congratulations for your efforts !

i did notice some frame drops my friend , i tested the camera for a while and although the results in specs don't show much of a difference between the stock and the modded cam , in the eye there is a small hickup in the framerate ...

i also agree with what AW079 said .
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] grande25:
The two files were of dramatically different test durations, roughly by a factor of 10. When testing between two cases variables such as time and environment should be mimmicked as much as possible to reduce variance and improve validity of the test. Comparison between these two files are invalid because of steep duration variance and possibly differences in what was being recorded.
