It needs to be where the old version was.

Nope no signing necessary. Most custom recoveries can flash zips that are not signed

Be careful when you do this. When an app gets updated, it also updates libs in /data/app-lib folder. If you do not copy the corresponding libs to /system/lib you will get FC's or other random errors.

The issue I might be having is with the camera and camera drivers. You say this camera driver in GPE is manufactured by samsung but today through Google Play service, google offered me an update to my camera. So I updated to latest camera driver and nothing changed in GUI and picture quality.

So are we using samsung camera driver or google stock driver?

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Funky-kun:
Camera on AOSP and GE will never be as good as TW, I've already accepted this, and so should you. It is bug-ridden (no manual focus in special modes, and some modes do not work at all) and third party apps are all inferior to the stock TW camera app.

Don't get me started on the HDR mode on Snap Camera, it's the worst by far. I also don't understand people saying the Google camera is crap... On auto mode it makes as good photos as any other camera app... including TW cam (yes, I've done detailed comparisons, and yes, TW camera also is full of grain in anything other than ideal lighting conditions). As an added bonus you get the fun shooting modes, such as focus and the different panoramas.

Bottom line: if you want to play with all of the camera features, stay on TW. If you want good photos in auto mode, you're fine with whatever.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sancho_panzer:
You can't know. Never say never. ;)

I don't agree with you. I'm copying something from Snap thread. Try it and you'll see:

"Snap HDR is great IF you change the default values.

These are the defaults:

Fine contrast: 4

Course contrast: 3

Overexposure: 1.5

Underexposure: - 0.5

Saturation: 4

My settings. Nicer natural looking results:

Fine contrast: 2 (or 3)

Course contrast: 1

Overexposure: 2

Underexposure: - 1

Saturation: 4

"

No, before you criticise an app you must try it deeply. Did you tried all configurations on Snap. Did you tried Focal, another good app?

It's obvious Samsung won't release all the secrets of his code, same happened with Safari vs other browsers on iOS, but I won't change system functionality given by rooted ROMS like this one over a gimmick camera.

Snap and Focal are great for a phone camera. If I need something better I use a real camera. Alternatively you can always make your phone photos even better on Photoshop. ;)

Its a real pain I tell you..., as I am not used to backup anything else for easy restoring other than my contacts :p

And previously I ran into a bootloop problem (changing recoveries and roms everyday, I guess it got clogged somewhere along the way).

I fixed that by wiping and installing a stock image from sammobile, so basicly, that has destroyed my easy\fast way of doing things, as I cant stop flashing that stock firmware every time I update.

I really dont know if its any point to my OCD-ish behaviour when it comes to my almighty i9505 :p

#01 - Boot twrp recovery and wipe

#02 - Flash stock formware from sammobile (2,5GB-ish)

#03 - Boot normal -> Go through setup wizard -> Factory Reset (Cleanup junk from and making my int.memory stock aswell)

#04 - ...Setup wizard again...

#05 - CF Auto Root

#06 - TWRP recovery

#07 - Put Dan's awesome rom with the awesome Googy Max3 1.0.9 and all my alarms\ringtones\wallpapers etc. inside

#08 - Flash ROM

#09 - Flash Awesome Googy Max3 1.1.0

#10 - Fix settings; Manually disabling stuff i dont want, fix wifi, bluetooth and apn

#11 - Log on to google

#12 - Download all my favouritte apps

#13 - Reorganize my nova launcher

#14 - Install Xposed

#15 - Reboot

#16 - Install GravityBox

#17 - Reboot

#18 - Fix GravityBox settings

#19 - Reboot

#20 - ...Download all my offline spotify playlists (sweet dear jesus on a wooden stick im finished)

And now, I hate to see a new update the next day (but I love it), because one does not simply keep the current release when one knows that there has been an update! ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] exxi:
Holy Moses! This is very malicious my friend. I have however identified at least one step for increased efficiency in your process : export Nova launcher settings and restore from SD card ?

No seriously, I don't think you need to flash the Sammy stock every time you update. Also I install exposed and Gravity box at the same time and it works just fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] sancho_panzer:
All the above are unnecessary. Why do you do it?!!! They're only justified if you want a new bootloader and radio, and even so you can flash them alone in Odin.

You should install Xposed and modules before installing anything else. And why don't you backup apps with Backup & Restore or Titanium to your SD?

Why don't you just copy them to a USB stick or SD card? This is crazy. :rolleyes:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Funky-kun:
Actually, on auto mode TW camera has pretty much the same amount of noise. In fact, on GE/AOSP auto mode, the photos can turn out a bit brighter, although that seems to add extra noise. The way TW camera makes good photos in poor lighting conditions (at least for me) is through the night mode. Now, there are night modes in third party cameras as well, but they suffer from the no touch focus bug, and generally produce inferior results. I am on Googy kernel right now, and night mode doesn't even activate when I try it... at least it worked on KT kenrel.

Yeah, but sadly I'm very pessimistic about this. You know, Samsung does not seem to care at all about the GPE S4, they even made things worse in the 4.4 update, so there's no hope of them fixing it. And relying on a fix from outside is unrealistic, as device-specific drivers/software will generally perform better than generic drivers/software.

Well, I appreciate your opinion, but please take a look at this album and tell me if you really think the Snap Camera HDR shots turned out better: http://imgur.com/a/HQWvO

Comparing the overexposed shots, Snap Camera turns the bright sky into dull grey (nothing like it) and botches the contrast of the whole landscape. Google Camera tunes down the bright sky just a little bit, and does a good job balancing the contrast and saturation throughout the picture.

Comparing the underexposed images, Snap Camera dims the cube even further, and exhibits some awful noise artifacts that have no place in the picture at all. Also, as in the previous picture, the contrast is lacking. Google Camera does a superb job of lighting up the surroundings, while keeping the original cube exposure. Note, there is none of that noise in the surroundings.

One can argue that these are conditions that favor one app over the other. But the problems is that while Snap Camera might make HDR shots look great, it shouldn't require manual input or reviewing of every single shot to bring out the best out of it. It should be shoot and forget. And while these settings are better than stock (stock really is abysmal), the results are still inferior to the Google Camera. AOSP was a bit different than GE, but I don't have it installed to show detailed comparisons.

Your presumption that I did not compare the apps in excessive detail is wrong. I really appreciate the S4's camera hardware, and it played a main role in choosing it as my device. I also did try Focal, and found it worse than Snap Camera in the UI department. The shots turned out generally the same, but I had several FC's in Focal.

I have accepted the trade-off between Touchwiz's camera and GPE's superb performance.

And true, when I am serious about shooting, I bust out my DSLR. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] hawkerpaul:
