Maybe you haven't noticed, but the stock camera.apk that comes with the Epic Touch is broken. You are given the option to create shortcuts within the camera app itself. These shortcut appear on the left side of the screen and give you access to features like, effects or resolution ect.
On the stock camera.apk, you can set up the shortcuts without any problems, however, these shortcuts son't survive a reboot of the phone. In fact, these preferences don't even survive switching back and forth between the camera and video camera.
This drives me crazy because I use my camera all the time for my blog and I hate having to set it up every time I launch the camera. So I decided to try and pull the camera.apk from the international Galaxy S 2. Low and behold it worked, perfectly.
Now, my preferences will even survive a reboot. This doesn't address the 1080p recording issue of cropping but I happy that I don't have to set up my camera settings, every time I use the camera.
This camera.apk is silenced, meaning that there is no "focus" beep.
I did theme the icon to match my ROM but that's it.
Just flash with CW and this will replace the current camera.apk. Be sure to back up your current version in case you desire to go back.
Enjoy...

If you set up shortcut and then reboot your phone, what happens? The shortcuts are removed and you have place them again. They are supposed to stick.
This camera. apk addresses that isses

hi i was wondering if you could get this to work on ics like ff18 or something because yours is the only one that has the save as flipped image option on it which i really need but it doesn't work on ics .
My camera is working fine, switched between video and camera. then rebooted. The edits I made stayed just fine.

Once you push the DigitalClock.apk into system/app you'll notice that every apk in there have little letters that look like "rw-r-r", the clock ones will be different. With root explorer make sure you're on r/w, long press, go to permissions and make look like this:

Is there a way to disable to little clock in the upper right corner, right next to the battery icon ? With the big digital clock widget, there is no need for two clocks.

I believe it's modifying the services.jar but not sure...when I had the vibrant all I had to do is delete it and the clock would be gone. I tried it on this phone the other day and got stuck on the galaxy S screen... So apparently that doesn't work. lol

I'm pretty sure it is a TW calender.....are you running a TW rom? I'm guessing not because you'd probably have that calender already. If you are running AOSP I don't believe you can get that calender to work.

I gave up on it. But with paranoid you can change the layout of each app. I changed it to 600px and now its big and looks just like the one I was trying to get.. so it works out in my scenario

Once again Blazer is TW, Paranoid would be AOSP. So I don't think you can get that calender app working on there.....
Touchwiz apps will not work on AOSP ROMS without tweaking. Touchwiz has its own framework required to run its apps. If you are trying to install this on a touchwiz rom, use rootexplorer, copy the app, move to /system/app, mount as "rw" and install, then long press the app, change permissions to rw,r,r

I copied the widget settings app from the FreeGS rom, it works with all touchwiz roms. Use root explorer app, do a backup of the app, bingo, copy it anywhere.

Well bad news is, Since Rootbox is AOSP/CM based, the Gallery App from Touchwiz will never run properly on it. I am looking for other Gallery Apps that do have native gif support.
I cant seem to find anything. That would be something awesome for a developer to create.
