Hi,

Just wanted to share that I use your app for some time.

I also bought a licence to support your development('s)

A great feature would be different FPS settings in videos. Like multiple slow motions option or really fast motions.

This would be great next to your 4K release.

How to view video on pc?

Just wondering how to view the videos that you take on a pc? i got the app and all in it to work, great app, but how can i view the videos on my pc?

**EDIT**

I have removed a file from my p[hone to my computer, but now it wont play even if i transfer it back to my phone, it says corrupted media. any advice? anyone??
[Android Apps and Games] kklijer:
If you have windows computer try installing codec pack with vlc ?

The videos should be a .mp4 file.
[Android Apps and Games] Cazziuz:
yeha i have a windows machine ruinning 8.1 if that matters.

also i just updated my codexs from the VLC site, and all it does now when i try to view the video is crash, i have tried it with multiple media players ,and they all say failed to load media?
[Android Apps and Games] kklijer:

Nexus phone question

I currently have a samsung phone and I'm thinking of buying a nexus, but I have a question first:

When I run any CM12 based ROM on my samsung I have this problem when I cannot download the SCOS pics to my computer until I reboot the phone (or use media refresh app). Does this behavior also happen with using vanilla Android phones like Nexus? Or is it CM12 specific? Can anyone confirm?

I find this extremely annoying and when I search for a fix, I've read that sometimes apps are not coded to refresh the internal sd after a write.

Thanks

Internal-sd bug?

SCOS seems to have a problem saving files to the internal-sd or sdcard where you need to reboot the phone OR use media refresh app before win7/win10 can view the files. If you take some pics, then immediately connect the phone to a PC, you will not see your files unless you reboot phone. It only seems to happen when using vanilla android or AOSP/CM ROM's and I've used the following phones:

Nexus 6

S4 + Note 4, tried nearly every AOSP rom

I do not see this issue with most other camera apps. Is this a bug with SCOS? Thx

I've been busy that rarely have time to check on XDA.

Just re-mention me if I missed your questions.

For license issue please email me at jwork.spy.camera.os@gmail.com/can.camera2@gmail.com I believe I should have already answered all license email. Sometimes there's delay in reply but mostly I answer it in 1-2 days.

The hidden folder method in SCOS seems cause this bug on some phone.

My suggestion is to not use hidden folder option if you experience this issue. Then if you have donate version you can use custom folder and create a folder started with . (dot) e.g /sdcard/.justanotherpic then it will always hidden.

Or if you don't have donate version create your own .nomedia file in the /sdcard/scos folder

Currently I try to find time for the development, 4K video is ready and some new language translation also ready.

Unfortunately I cannot promise any timeline yet.

Sorry but currently the payment was based on Google play and I didn't setup payment/license server yet.

Quicker autoshot needed

Autoshot is way to slow at 1 sec....this app really needs a quicker burst option. Newer phones have an impressive burst rate, much faster than 1 sec. I lose a ton of good pics due to blurry shots that could have been great with a quicker burst and more pics to choose from.

Also, a logfile is always created regardless of the setting. Minor thing, but I have noticed this across 4 diff phones now.

Thx

I have switched to an LG Volt 2 running Lollipop 5.1 stock, from the original LG Volt running KitKat 4.4. On the Volt 1 the video quality was perfect but on the Volt 2 the video is slightly distorted, stretched almost like a fisheye affect in all resolutions. This isn't happening with the stock camera or other camera apps. I went through all the settings but maybe there is something I am missing or is this something that needs an update to fix? Thanks in advance for any answers and assistance.

[MENTION=3161379]jimmod[/MENTION]

1 - Please add option to start taking picture when a movement is detected and stop when no movement is detected.

2 - Also, tasker support would be really nice.

(Eventhough it is already possible, using tasker to run commands like "input keyevent 24" to simulate up volume button)

3 - On galaxy S5, even if I set the auto shot time to 1 second, it only takes 1 every 2 seconds. I have around 30 pictures per minute.

I thought it could be a hardware limitation, but the app MobilHiddenCamera is able to get one per sec on maximum resolution. Maybe just an implementation issue.

Hi,

I had your app for a while now and paid for the donate version, I recently got a new phone and could not find the paid version anymore, and sent an email about getting a license and the paid version since it no longer in the google play store.

Anyway thanks for all the hard work you do.

Hello! I paid for the app via the Amazon App Store, however every time I open it I have to re-authorize it through the app store. I attempt a "purchase", amazon says I own it, then the app unlocks. If I reboot my phone or open it a week later I have to go through the same process. Any ideas? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] daxir:
Thanks I was able to get the license from your email, though I am curious what happened why did google pull it but keep the free one?

One other thing I noticed with the latest version, when you do a video recording using the back camera if you do it in portrait it is fine, but in landscape the orientation of the video recording is upside down it is very weird

[Android Apps and Games] jimmod:
Noted. New API Camera2 support burst but only for Lollipop, will take quite changes for porting to the new API Camera2

About the log file, some log still logged but only several warning log. So if you disable the log, you can check the content will only some warnings.

The API for video is limited, compared to the stock it customized and possible coded low level hardware which making limitation on 3rd party camera app.

Last time I check it's not possible although Samsung stock camera app have this feature. Like above answer there's limitation compared stock camera app.

Noted for the idea.

3) I will check on this, disabling the auto focus will speed up but might causing it blur.

You will need to enable floating window for SCOS. It's in Android setting - app manager - SC-OS2 - checked the floating window option.

I have trouble keeping up with several market place. Can you purchase from google play store? send me email with both purchase, I will able to refund the Google play purchase.

Google Play checking is known quite random :|

LG G4 Android version 5.1 Video recording crashes on second recording

Have been using this app for almost 2 years now. Really works quite well.

However seeing this issue with SC-OS2 on LG G4 Lollipop version 5.1 (Upgraded to G4 last week)

Video recording starts fine (using hard-ware OR touch screen). When stop command is issued, takes about 10 seconds to stop.

Video file is created correctly.

Then, on issuing video recording start a second time it crashes with following error message

'Failed starting video recording. This feature is still experimental.You can try other quality setting. Reporting it will help me solve issues'

Have tried monkeying around with all settings...but unable to resolve...

Worked fine in S4 Kit-Kat and LG G4 Kit-Kat and Lollipop 5.01 (Both SC-OS and SC-OS2)

Anyone else have this problem OR know how to address?

Device - Sprint LG G4 Unrooted...
[Android Apps and Games] fatangobar:

[0.4.0] crashing upon startup when phone not connected to internet

Hey Jimmy,

I'm beta testing version 0.4 recently and have encountered a reproducable crash. When my phone isn't connected to the internet SC-OS crashes immediately after launch. It seems to try to contact the update server which isn't reachable due to purposely disabled WiFi/4G.

If the files you copied to computer have small file size it's the MTP (copy) issue when SCOS enabled the hidden folder option.

Try to restart your phone first before copying the file.

I'll check into those app and see if I can learn their method.

Any info on this will help me too, I don't have LG G3

Sorry but the design currently make it impossible to manually set it since there's ID that generate when creating the widget that will be passed to call it.

But I'll put tasker integration as priority.

Do all video quality setting not working?

Noted on the idea about password and option to record video without sound. Will add it on next version.

Unfortunately there's possible limitation from the Android OS on some model. And I think also because since in some country there's law about this so the OS release on that country will force the shutter.

You can remove this if your phone rooted though, with removing the shutter sound file.

SCOS can only ensure 100% silent sound on all device for the image capture.

The option that you deactivate is the stock camera option which using custom way to record. I guess that the next step SCOS should be, but it's possible very custom for every brand probably since it's accessing hardware directly
