Yeah it's all good though because it's not a bug or issue that'll prevent us from using the rom. I'm going to be honest and say I do prefer the camera from touch Wiz over the AOSP one but I rarely use any of the features. I only take a simple picture or video which the AOSP one does well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
I agree totally. The TW camera is way better. That said I love the overall user experience of AOSP. Especially since we can run updates that TW will never see on this phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
Yeah man totally, if we could somehow install just the TW camera on an AOSP rom I think that's the day I never flash another rom EVER. And I switch roms maybe once every week or two. I just love the smoothness and fluidity of AOSP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Actually there is a TW cam port over on the Intl forum. The camera is working but installing the mod breaks vid recording. Cant have our cake and eat it too lol!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
Yeah.... I'd rather just stick with what I have. Lol

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] doratheconquistadora:
I really want to use the Power Shutter option but the instant I hit that toggle to turn it on the camera force closes and stops working all together from that point on. That's what I like most about this camera mod.

I'm running notta's 12/08 PA 4.0 (4.4.1) build.

Anyone else have this issue? If not, what were your exact steps when installing this mod? I've tried a few different things and still not fully working :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
I've never used power shutter so I've never encountered that problem. It could be another bug in this mod. Sorry it doesn't work, unfortunately I have no way of fixing it since I didn't build this mod, just shared it. If ur on PA the stock camera should work 100% so there might not be a need for this mod soon. I use it mainly for the SD Card storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Burkejt1:
Could anyone tell me how I should go about moving the apk to the system/app folder, do I have to install the ask first then move it? Ive done it that way before but when I go to install it it says it will update a current app and im not sure that'd be what I want here. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kude87:
You can either "move to" with your file Explorer, or cut and paste into the system/app folder. Both work as long as you correctly rename your other camera and apply the right permissions to the new cam/gallery app. This mod doesn't install with a normal package installer like I think you are referring to. You simply place it in the folder, change permissions, reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Burkejt1:
I'm using es file manager and when I try to rename gallery2.apk to gallery2apk.bak it fails to rename and then when I try to move or copy and past the new camera to system/app it fails to do so also. Is there something I'm missing here?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kude87:
Yeah ES File Explorer is a bit weird. Make sure your root Explorer is on in the menu settings, as well as you have the system folder mounted. To do this, be in your system folder, hit the menu and where you see the root explorer toggle, tap a bit to the left of the toggle to have a menu pull up. Click in Mount rw I think, and make sure rw is clicked on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Burkejt1:
Everything worked perfectly, thanks for your help! I was hoping this would help my snapchat forcecloses when taking a video and I'm on the RC2 of nott's Paranoid Android build but then I saw snapchat has problems with this on all AOSP like roms but I'm glad to try this cam out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kude87:
No problem. I've had pretty good luck with this camera on all aosp builds I've tried, but I can't comment on snapchat since I don't use it. Glad you got things working.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
**Alert** It has been reported to me that this Modded Camera is NOT working on the Slim Kat beta 1.9 I have no idea why but Im hoping it is a Rom side error, this way it can be fixed. Otherwise if ur running Sk1.9 u might be SOL for now. Again sorry, wish I could help but I have no idea why it wouldn't work. It has worked on previous builds of SK and just about every other 4.4.x rom I have tried which is just about all of them cuz I have a terrible flash addiction. I'll keep you guys posted and I will update the OP to warn Sk1.9 users.

Happy Holidays to my XDA Family!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Maphack:
It was sketching out for me on the last two PA builds, but it seems to be working relatively well when I decided to try installing it as an app in addition to copying it to the system app folder etc.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 3thereal:
Edit, wrong thread
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Maphack:
Hope this hasn't been posted before.

Well, if you guys are getting the same problem I was, I sort of found a fix. a few versions ago i started getting force closes and clearing the data from gallery used to get it to work; first it would freeze whenever i took a picture and eventually just wouldn't open.

I am running the newest PA (2/8)

1) i rename camera2.apk galaxy2 and galaxy4 (i think those are the 3 file names, if not then they're pretty close) with .bak extensions, copy and paste the mod and change permissions.

2) reboot

3) then actually install the apk that you copied into your system/app folder like you would install any other apk. you might need to clear data from gallery, but i don't think i usually have to.

I can use ffc, video, panorama, and HDR (regular pictures seem better quality to me though).

this has worked for me. sorry if it fails for you or my instructions were terrible.

good luck.

What program to use / if I need to use adb and the commands and everything, Stuff like that. I'm behind on all that stuff but more then capable to use if more precise instructions are used
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KevinGee:
Would you also need pictures or a video walk-through to get you going?

All im saying is, if you can flash a rom then you can/should be able to use a root file explorer. No need for adb just download any root file explorer and go into

/system/apps and follow the op.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] exAusTiN:
thats all i needed to know thank you. no need to be a prick about it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DSDONE:
Does this have burst shot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kaslopis:
Have you figured out how to get it to work yet? I'm using ES file explorer

with root permission

and I cannot "push" (?) the apk to system/app. Says "task failed".

I'm assuming that means copy and paste to that folder, and it's not working..

I'm stumped as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
Guys some of the root file apps don't give root permission correctly, you have to mount within the app but try this

1. Make sure you have root access to apps and adb in dev options. Adb isn't needed here just give it root perms.

2. Try root browser, its free from the market and has root privelages as soon as you grant it. No extra steps

3. After you copy and paste to system/app set permission by long pressing it, set to 644 or rw-r--r-- (samething)then reboot

* if for some reason it fails, try pasting to system/priv-app

It may work there, it may not.

Hope this helps

Has anyone tried this on Carbon 4.4 nightlies? Stock camera was FC on FFC since around March 16-19, looking for a fix.

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tprophit:
Thanks.

I did step 1., then moved this camera into system/app folder, rebooted, and the new camera was there, ready to go. Never did an 'install', however when the phone rebooted, got the 'updating' toast message.

In any event, it is there, and all working.

Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Maphack:
Glad it helped.

Yeah it seems like the degree of steps necessary varies from device to device, ROM to ROM. Like now I had to push it into the priv-app folder because I was getting force closes every reboot and had to reinstall it after every reboot to get it working, and moving the file fixed that issue entirely.

[Motorola Atrix HD] :
I'm sorry I do not speak English. but I need your opinion

Hello friends. This is my first post and unfortunately is to annoy.

I commented a couple of days ago I bought a phone as autoregalo advance for my birthday, among many things you want to install Cyanogenmod, I had some problems with the wifi and found he had to flash a file, perform and restart the phone.

When charging the phone again remains in the part that says Cyanogenmod, and is loading but never gets there. I started to enter the recovery and re-flash, but when I try to access the internal memory to re-flash I get Could not mount the sdcard (internal). I put one external and the external if I flash, but always stays loading and does not pass that point.

What solutions do you recommend?, I think the error that must be loaded by the partitions that must be malformed. Any idea how to solve it? I can not enter because load rom

Thank you so much hope their contributions of ideas
[Motorola Atrix HD] EcHoFiiVe:
Try using fastboot and with fastboot flash recovery again and then try flashing your ROM. Sometimes in recovery you need to go to mounts and storage (something like that) and select mount/unmount internal SD card. If its mounted already, unmount then remount.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stinky73:
Sorry, Work is frantic at moment so rarely here..

Do you have android sdk installed on your Windows computer? If yes, you can test the recovery you are trying by using fastboot, (fastboot boot recovery.img) if it works then there is a good chance that you have a rom that overwrites recovery when booting so even if Odin installs it ok it does not stick on rebooting....

You can extract the recovery image that you downloaded from droid basement from the tar.md5 file.

If you are ok with trying all that then we might be able to get you root by booting into cwm recovery through fastboot and flashing the root.zip from there, theory being when you reboot after that you will lose your custom recovery but have root...

I would just need my hand held through the entire process honestly, I have no idea how to do that stuff but I'm pretty good at following directions lol.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stinky73:
I suppose you could use the adb "pull" command to save all the necessary partitions... Not sure of the possibility of possibly making a nandroid using the fastbooted recovery while you're in there... Never thought of it before and never tried it so you could become a pioneer...:D

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 PM ----------

Another thought is that if you succeed in getting root then you can delete the file responsible for overwriting recovery on your locked boatloader and you will then be free to install a recovery and it will stick... File is install-recovery.sh in system/etc

Our you could try unlocking boatloader but you'll lose everything on the tab...

Hello,

I want to buy a stylus, but all I see is those big tip styluses, and I want some smaller tip stylus.

I know that some stylus won't work with the i9300, like the S-Pen of the note2.

So I've found some really small tip stylus pens but they are for the nintendo DS ..

How can I tell if they will work for the i9300, or they are using the technology the note2 uses so it won't work?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Accessories] verynoob:
Can I bump?:silly:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Div033:
Check out the Samsung C-Pen. That's the smallest tipped stylus you're going to find that works on the S3.

The Nintendo DS has a resistive touchscreen, so its pen doesn't have ANY technology... It's just a piece of plastic.

Since our touchscreens are capacitive it isn't possible to get styli that small without an extra digitizer layer like the Note 2 has. C-Pen is as small as it gets for us.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] verynoob:
Can you explain a little bit more please? do you mean that the C-pen has more than just the tip? it has something inside it like the S-Pen, or something just on the tip?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Div033:
Nah its just a smaller-than-normal rubber tip that only works well with Samsung's devices. I think it has to do with how their capacitive digitizers are set up... More dense than others perhaps? I've heard reports of people trying to use the c-pen on other non-galaxy s3/4 devices but they have to push down really hard to get it to work.

I have one of their styluses and they work perfectly on my s3
[Galaxy S III Accessories] verynoob:
So how can I tell if other pens will work? I mentioned those NDS pens, do you think they can work? or they use the Note 2 technology?

Thanks for showing me these,

but maybe you can tell , how am I supposed to know whether a stylus is going to work on an i9300? I know for example that the s-pen won't work because it has some wacom technology or something, but how about the NDS stylus pens? will they work? or they use the Note2 technology?

Someone said that if the tips are too small they wont work, but you just showed some very tiny tip stylus pens that do work.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] tqgia2:
NDS styluses will not work as they rely on pressure. The stylus that i just showed you does work on the i9300. I personally have one and use it myself
