EI22 - Video Player Low Battery Mod​Download Here​​
This is the Stock Samsung Video App from Gingerbread IE22​
INSTRUCTIONS:

DESCRIPTION:
Once you flash, this will stop the video player from forcibly closing itself when your phone's battery reaches critically low levels. Granted, you may use another app to get around this, most of us love the stock video app for its simplicity.
KNOWN ISSUES:
-Video Player list will appear empty, videos must be loaded through Gallery or other app when battery is low. (Fix in testing)
-------------------------------
This is a port of a feature previously enabled in EC05 Froyo.
Pre-Built into ThunderHawk 3.3 and on.​

So would this also have the no shutter mod built into it, or would we have to choose between either mod?

I suspect it already works. Doesn't seem like much changed, if anything with the video player.

[MOD][JB] .96 FW>Camera Mod Cyber-shot™ For Xperia S [Multi res, SuperiorAuto]

Ok so since the the .197 leak, and the new .200 leak JB firmwares for Xperia S i kinda whant the Superior Auto the .68 JB leak had and the JB from Xperia T,V,TX and Xperia Z and ZL, but sadly waiting for an official release of our beloved JB for Xperia S developers leave Xperia S aside till then. So i tested the "[MOD][JB] Camera Mod Cyber-shot™ For Xperia T / TX / V "Updated 13-04-2013" " by Rizal Lovins and found out that the Cyber-Shot mods for Xperia T,V,TX and Z,ZL work just fine. And actualy the Z,ZL mod is better. So without further adoo i invite you to flash over the Z,ZL Cyber-Shot mod.
I tested the Z and ZL mod on the Xperia S with the .197 and i can confirm it works fine.
Do it at your own risk!
Improvements besides the best mod given by Rizal
1. It kinda fixes the purple tint (i see the difference, i dont know if you will)
2. Multiresolution 12MP , 9MP, 8MP, 5MP, 2MP(4:3), 2MP(16:9)
3. SuperiorAuto+ witch works superbly (to my surprise)
4. It fixes the Ratio in the frontfaceing camera (now the 16:9 is switched to its real possition)
5. Multiresoluton on the frontfaceing camera 1MP(4:3), 1MP(16:9), VGA(4:3)
6. It fixes the 1080P recording lag (i see the difference, i dont know if you will)
7. Multiresolution video FullHD(16:9), HD(16:9), VGA(4:3), MMS(4:3)
8. Multiresolution video frontfaceing camera HD(16:9), VGA(4:3), MMS(4:3)
9. Its fast and crisp
10. All the mods made by Rizal.
UPDATE: SCRATCH THAT BLA BLA BLA I TESTED IT ON .96 FW AND WORKS LIKE A CHARM ONLY BUG I CAME ACROSS WAS A BIT OF LAYOUT CHANGE AND THE BLACK SCREEN WHEN COMMING BACK FROM ALBUM WITCH BY THE WAY HAS A WORKARROUND JUST SWITCH TO FRONT FACEING CAMERA AND BACK.
Dont forget its a Share.

Already flashed the xperia z mod but havent tested yet to see whats change.
Ill try to test it later and compre to previous stock app from leaked jb

Thank you. Flashed it but I don't think there is any improvement with this mod. Auto Scene still captures pictures with purple tint when flash is on. Quality is stille the same and video recording still lags.

I think theres a bug on xperia z mod, after taking pictures and you look at the picture you took. When you press back button to camera, the screen of the camera is only black. I need to close the camera to recent apps for it to work again.

I'am also experience this sadly though the quality is greatly improved
EDIT: Found a workaround. In Superior auto mode, the bug triggers however if the picture was accessed during normal mode, the bug was not triggered. hope it helps

Check this link for my full feedback. I will see what this Z version has of different.

[Q] Xperia M video/still camera questions (blueish tint)

Greetings, Xperia M, Build 15.1.C.2.8, Half-rooted (unable to do the full root, I don't know why so I can't do the RW thing)
Like most of you have probably noticed, the stock camera firmware has a bluish tint problem. The camera works great in the daytime, really good actually. But doing some camera app testing in a darkened atmosphere I took some pics in my bedroom with the flash, and the pics look really BLUE. My walls aren't blue, they are yellow haha. After testing with other android camera apps such as ProCapture, the pics look as they should (no blue walls). So it's obvious that it is the stock sony camera firmware that is at fault since other camera apps make the pics look normal.
So saying this I went ahead and froze (disabled) the stock camera app so I could launch ProCapture with the hardware shutter button. But now I have no video recording app ugh. So two-fold question please:
1) Is there a way to make our hardware shutter button open up a different camera app such as ProCapture? If so, how please? (Like mentioned above I was only able to half-root it, the full root instructions just haven't worked for me no matter how many times I tried)
2) If not, and I do have to disable the stock camera app so I can launch ProCapture with the hardware button, can you recommend me what video recording app I can install that can takeover just video recording duties? I think it would need to be for video recording only otherwise I may run into problems with the hardware shutter button again. It has been remarkably hard to find a video recording app on the app store! I have no idea why this is.
Thanks much for your help. BTW, I like the phone. For the price, I think it's really good. And more importantly, the size and shape fits me perfectly :fingers-crossed:

For your 1st question.... I'm not really sure on the x m but when I was still using an mtk phone I was able to change the camera button to open any app I want in android.policy.jar or was it framework.jar (cant recall).. Cant remember which smali it was but I stumbled on it via search for text using notepad++ ... I searched for com.android.gallery in our Xperia case you should search for semc.android.camera (not sure if thats the correct package name for the stock camera app) and change it with the package name of the camera app or whatevar app you want the camera button to launch

try this lg camera : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677645

Thanks for the replies. As far as LGCamera goes, it seems to not have been updated in almost two years so I left that one alone. Did find an app called "A Better Camera" which also has video recording in it. So I disabled the stock camera and have just been using A Better Camera and it also launches from the hardware button. Better pics too in the dark with the flash. At least my yellow walls aren't blue
Edit: Okay, I have found a way to be able to launch a third party camera from the hardware button WITHOUT freezing (totally disabling) the stock camera app. This then will allow you to use a third-party camera app such as ProCapture etc (that don't have a built in video recorder), allow you to switch between the third-party app and the stock video recorder, but then also launch the third-party app using the hardware shutter button. In other words, the best of all solutions.
You need to at least half-root the Xperia-M (many threads found here how to do that) then get the AutoStarts app from the play store: (not allowed to post links yet). Just search AutoStarts from Michael Elsdörfer
Once you start AutoStarts, scroll down and find "Camera Button Pressed". Select Disable for all the cameras EXCEPT the one you want to use the hardware button for. You're done now. All the camera apps that you selected disable for will still work when using their icons, the one you didn't disable will be the one that starts with the hardware shutter button.
Note: I also tried the app "Default App Manager Pro" and set ProCapture as the default camera. But that didn't do anything, no effect on the hardware shutter button (still opened the stock camera). So far the AutoStarts method is the only one that has worked for me.

[Q] Camera apps that support hardware HDR?

Other than the stock camera, and Google Camera, I've yet to find a single camera application that actually supports the Z1C's HDR camera mode, all applications will take multiple shots and then do software HDR, whereas the camera is capable of doing HDR on its own (or so it seems when I use the first two applications).
Is there a reason why applications that use Software HDR can't just use the hardware version when installed in a device that supports it? Why I can't find other apps that use it?
I am not satisfied with the stock or Google camera, yet I don't want to give up HDR support to switch to something else :/

HDR is not a Hardware feature, in all cameras or Smartphones is a software picture treatment..

I think he means that we have a HDR capable sensor..
Try Camera FV5 .. Someone told me that camera 360 app takes good pics in sony.. try that also..

Is there any reason that the sony cybershot camera apps package included in Sony STOCK ROM 5.0.2 can't be installed with any lollipop ROM....?
I have CM12.... and once MultiROM is available for the Z1c I'll be installing lots of ROMS to try them out but would be good to have Sony's Camera, and Walkman that work across all of them.
Can the Sony camera apps package be extracted from the system SIN file within a SONY STOCK lollipop zip and installed into any ROM...?
The Walkman app works.... I already have it.... just can't seem to find the camera apps anywhere

Stock camera being Sony....? So are you on Stock ROM or have you found somewhere to download the original Sony camera apps package and installed them....? I'm looking everywhere trying to find the apps package with no luck so if you can help that would be awesome,
EDIT:.... I now have Snap... very nice HDR capability but have no idea if it's using the Hardware of the cybershot...?

[Port] Sense 6 Camera

Im not one for fancy OP so lest cut to the chase. I have been working on this on and off for some time now and i am at a point i feel i can call it ALPHA. This should only be flashed on KK or L GPE or pure AOSP. CM will have to be done differently they did some strange things to HW keys that makes camera not work at all.
Screenshots available here:

What works?
Camera
Pan360
Split Capture
PhotoBooth
Selfie
Photo preview
HTC gallery
What needs some work?
Zoe camera wont open. ( if you choose Zoe options you will need to go to settings > apps > Camera and clear data to make it stop)
Camcorder (rotates the video when saving and cause the video to glitch)
Please have a valid Nandroid in case you want to go back. At a later date i can make an uninstall zip.
Special thanks to:
HTC
Google
Neo he pointed out that gallery was update to work without the security check.
Team Ecliptic for pushing me to get this working.

i cleaned up the zip and packaged gallery with the camera. it also comes with Zoe the social network. if people dont want it i can remove.

Looks like there will be a tiny issue with L vs KK. Im going to need to set up a zip for both until HTC updates Camera to API19

I havent found any bugs myself. Well one. Not able to open gallery from camera app
