Enhanced Camera.apk

Everyone seems to be asking for a silent camera app, also some desire one with better image/video capturing. There is one in existence however, most wouldn't know this (unless you use the 'search' function) because it's in the I9100 forum. Yes, it does work with our phone but I wanted something that was build from our source and that's up to date. I decided to take the best of both and combine them. This is the Camera.apk from Calkulin's 2.8.1 (EL29) ROM but with the edits from Potatoman's incorporated into it.
Check out Potatoman's thread to see the bitrates and sampling rates if you're curious. Instructions on how to put this in /system/app are in Patatoman's thread also. Let me know if for some reason they didn't work and I'll see what I can do. I've tested it on mine so I know it works I just haven't had a chance to test the sampling and bitrates.
Also, there's a media_profiles.xml that may or may not be useful. I use it anyway. That goes in /system/etc with no special permissions. Just give it the same as the stock one.
Lastly, in no way do I take credit for this. All I've done is combine work from two great devs - they did all the dirty work. If you'd like to thank or donate to someone then donate/thank one of them, or both
Cheers and enjoy.
EDIT: Figured I would add this here for those that aren't sure how to replace a /system file.
For a file explorer (eg. Root Explorer) make sure the system is mounted as r/w. Copy the app from your sdcard to the /system/app directory. Change permissions to rw-r-r. Reboot. I also set the owner and group to root but you shouldn't have to.
For terminal
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
cp /sdcard/path/to/app /system/app
chmod 644 /system/app/Camera.apk
Reboot
Only if you have to should you just install it like a regular app. If you have to, just click on the app in your file explorer and select 'install'. This will install it to the /data/app directory. This should never have to be done though.

Just make sure you reboot

Excellent find... much obliged!

Wait... so this particular .apk does not include the snap photo via volume rocker functionality?
I am just going by the previous post.

No not yet anyway. It just has the higher bitrate and sampling rate right now. I'm new to .dex edits so I'll keep updating it as I learn more. I know there's a power button mod for it but from what I've read its still buggy.

For noobs like me, do you just put the camera apk in your storage and install it using installer app?

Nice find! I just switched from Calkulin 2.8.1 to TNz Blend ROM and will love to have Calkulin's camera app with the Blend ROM... Best of both worlds! Will flash this tomorrow and report back.

You'll need a file explorer app like Root Explorer. You can also use a terminal emulator app. With the file explorer you copy the app from your sdcard to the /system/app directory. Make sure sure the system is mounted in r/w also. That will overwrite the original, now all you have to do is set permissions which are rw-r-r.
Just to be safe, reboot. If you had a shortcut for it on your homescreen you'll have to put it back there.
For terminal
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
cp /sdcard/path/to/app /system/app
chmod 644 /system/app/Camera.apk

I figured I would test to see if it had that function since Calkulin's camera does. I'm able to take pictures with the volume rocker. Are you not?

No,u need to put apk in /system/app folder but you need to be rooted to put apk's in that folder.
But u can try just installing it regularly,sometimes that works too for some apps.

[HELP] Cannot install APKs to /system/app via push

I am using AOKP M3 with Black Exodus theme installed, but I doubt that matters.
This is so frustrating. Regardless of the system apk I am trying to install, it NEVER shows up in the app drawer. Here are the steps I use.
adb remount
adb push [Systemapk] /system/app/
make sure permissions are set to rw-r--r--
reboot (shouldn't have to, but doesn't do anything)
I've installing multiple different system apps but it never works. NITROZ kindly made a zip for me, but it's app specific and I shouldn't have to use it.
Any help is greatly appreciated

stupid question but have you checked the permissions on system/app/ ?
I would of thought rw rw r !!

Wow, you have got to be kidding me. It doesn't work with ADB, but when I cut/paste using root explorer it works.
ARGHHHH. Well, at least I got it somewhat working.
And yea, adb devices lists my phone.

Scratch that. The root explorer method worked once and now nothing.
I have rebooted. Tried with sign and unsigned apps. Modified permissions. ARGH!

Maybe u can help. I have cm9 music apk on my SD. It says in es explorer cut and paste to system/app. Is that a folder. I can't find where to paste the apk to. Do I paste it to a folder? Please help. I'm still learning.

CM9 music does not need to go in the /system/app folder as it is not necessary. If all you want to do is use the app, just leave it where it is and click to install it.

make sure you tap the Mount R/W button in Root Explorer when you are in the system/app folder. It should be somewhere at the top of the screen. Then you should (in theory) be able to copy anything to the system folders.

(HOW TO) Swap SD Card For CM10

Since CM10 by Arco released, there is no swap option in the storage menu.
This is only for CM10 and ONLY FOR GALAXY W
For this just copy the file provided to '/etc/(paste)' via root explorer or some other app...also set permissions to rw-r-r
For Permissions: Image Provided.
there are two files.
1. Internal sd card as the default
2. Microsd card as Default
THIS IS NOT A FLASH-ABLE ZIP. PLEASE EXTRACT

yow jas!
just want to clarify things;
you mean, to swap internal to external memories, just paste these TWO files to /etc, changed permissions, reboot, and done?
or we select which one to be default?

I´m not into CM10 for now as CM9 is working well for me, but assuming the vold.fstab files provided by jassim007 are correct, you need to do the following to prevent the SGW to stick in a bootloop.
1) Use RootExplorer
2) Copy the file either to your external or internal Storage
3) Move the file to your device, but not the destination folder
4) Set permissions correctly
5) Copy to destination folder by overwriting the original vold.fstab
6) Reboot

[GUIDE] ODEX any 4.1.1 JB ROM from official OTA

This will essentially odex all files in your /system/framework and it will do it straight from the Android UI via my personal favorite app ... this is good because it frees up memory, makes UI transitions cleaner, and reduces DVM size.
NOTE: DO NOT TRY TO ODEX YOUR /SYSTEM/APP/ DIRECTORY THEN TRY TO ODEX USING THIS METHOD. YOU WILL HAVE A BAD DAY. 0_o framework must me odexed before system apps
1. download the odex.zip here --> PURPLE
2. extract all files with a file explorer, i prefer root explorer or fx file explorer
3. place the extracted folder and all of it's contents in /data/local/tmp ... so you should have /data/local/tmp/odex/+(misc files in new odex directory)
4. give the new directory and ALL contents FULL permissions - full read, write, and execute perms. You will need to set them all individually. the odex folder, and all contents. your file explorer, if it has taken you this far, should be able to accomplish this. Also, mount your system as writeable as well!
5. download this app TERMINAL EMULATOR dont worry it is free. open the app
Type the following commands - each new line should be executed with the enter key:
su (hit enter, it will ask for root)
/data/local/tmp/odex/odex (hit enter, you will see
you will see a bunch of outputs. there will be a message when it is done (honestly, like 10 seconds if that) saying something like "enjoy your hybrid ROM"
type "reboot recovery" (without the quotes)
device will boot into recovery immediately after you hit enter...
wipe cache and dalvik cache once more each, and reboot your device. PROFIT :good:
*Disclaimer - I don't take donations, just hit the thanks button, and the thanks button for anybody I mention in my thread.

typing su in doesn't request root permission. I am definitely rooted, not sure what's going on.
EDIT: Got it, the su was working but I didn't realize that it might just change from $ to # instead of asking for permission. I also had to grant not just the directory, but all of the files in the odex folder full permission, which might have just been a reading comprehension error on my part. Worked flawlessly after that. On Infamous 2.2

your super user app is probably set by default to allow access. also, i will update the OP to be a little more clear about setting the perms on the directory AND it's contents.

Yes after you odex your framework you can odex system apps.
The main thing about odexing is your apps load faster and it frees up memory in your /data/ partition because you are removing a good chunk of dalvik cache.
Also does improve performance just a tick, by that I mean general UI responsiveness is improved.

Thanks!

swap internal and external SD cards

I made this post over in the HellyBean thread as one user was asking about it, and I decided I would post it in an easier to find place.
Basically it is a shell script that you can toss into /data/loca/userinit.d (if your ROM supports userinit.d, otherwise throw it in /system/etc/init.d) that will swap your internal and external SD cards.
Using this script is at your own risk. Any bricks, fires, alien invasions, etc are not my fault... well, unless they are. I have run this script on my phone and it seems to do as I claim it does.
This script has ONLY been tested on a SGH-T989D phone running the ROM Hellybean on Android 4.3. Based on my memory, I believe this should work on 4.2.2 ROMs as well and should not be dependant on one specific ROM. If you wish to make sure it will work with your ROM, run the following command from the shell/terminal:
mount | grep sdcard
if you see /dev/block/vold/179:97 and /dev/block/vold/179:28 and tempfs as your 3 SD cards, you are good to go. If you get any different values, this script will NOT work for you unless you modify it to match your values. I STRONGLY recommend you check your mount points before running the script as mounting an incorrect partition to your SD card (internal or external) can do unexpected things. If you unintentionally mount your recovery or boot, you could easily corrupt these. I accept no responsibility if anything goes wrong. Make sure you do all of this as root as well where applicable.
STEPS:
1) backup your internal and external SD cards
2) take a nandroid (never hurts to do a nandroid before making a startup script)
3) download the zip file and extract the swapsd.sh file (NOTE: this is NOT a flashable zip. do NOT attempt to flash this from recovery. If you do, you do so at your own risk)
4) copy the script to your phone (however you wish to do that is up to you)
OPTIONAL STEPS
5) copy the script to /data/local
6) run the script
7) verify that your internal and external SD cards are swapped
END OF OPTIONAL STEPS
8) do one of the following:
8A) copy the script to /data/loca/userinit.d
8B) copy the script to /system/etc/init.d (NOTE: you will need to mount /system as RW)
9) change the permissions on the file to 755 (or rwxr-xr-x)
10) reboot and your SD cards will be swapped.
I strongly recommend doing the optional steps as if they fail for any reason, then you do NOT want to run this as a boot script.
Below is the script if you are curious what it is actually doing:
#/sys/xbin/bash
while [ `mount | grep -c sdcard` -lt 3]
do
sleep 10
done
umount /storage/sdcard0/.android_secure
umount /storage/sdcard0
umount /storage/sdcard1
mount /dev/block/vold/179:97 /storage/sdcard0
mount /dev/block/vold/179:28 /storage/sdcard1
mount -t tmpfs -o ro,seclabel,size=0k,mode=000 tmpfs /storage/sdcard0/.android_secure

I would first try running it from anywhere to verify works for though

I'll see what I can do... won't be very exciting as it is all command prompt crap...
Want me to write a pc app for it?
I'll need to look up the rules for distributing adb...

The screenshots you attached do not really show much. The root folder contents should not change, but /storage/sdcard0 and /storage/sdcard1 should change contents.
What should happen after running the script (if it was successful, I found with later builds of HellyBean I needed to do a lazy unmount and to use busybox to unmount it) is /storage/sdcard0 and /storage/sdcard1 should swap contents. So sdcard0 is normally your INTERNAL memory and sdcard1 is normally your EXTERNAL memory, so running the command should swap them.
I have not tested it on kitkat, but I believe it should work. I know that later jellybean builds used vold devices instead of mmcblk devices, but I don't think that kitkat would have removed the mmcblk device.
If you like, I can update the script to use busybox and a lazy unmount? I know to remount /data you need to use a lazy unmount as it is in use.
