I haven't noticed any videos of the latest test firmware (2.15) floating anywhere around so i thought i would do those none-rooted users a favor and show you a short demonstration of what kind of smooth UI us rooted users are experiencing in contrast to the IMO laggy UI we have on 1.26~1.29 roms. This is actually one of my first videos ever and i hardly even ever use a camera other than the one on my HOX to record videos. So yeah! I hope the clip i've uploaded for demonstration purposes is clear enough. Really there is little to no lag at all
Take a look for yourself.

p.s: this is on maximus rom v2.2 by Football
And oh yeah, i do go into screen-on time in the video, but don't worry the battery life shown isn't what it should be. It has more to do with the fact that i reflashed the rom and had a few calls + listened to over 40 minutes of music today. I believe in total i'd have nearly 2 hours screen time by now if i hadn't restarted or reflashed.
Whatever!
With the song this video makes it seem as if it is being fast forwarded, but it isn't

For real? Lol!I've got the feeling that has something to do with me having tried to put a music on top of it and the process taking a little bit, should be fine soon i hope... The video is working fine on my side. Let me see if it may be an alternative issue.. Sorry
edit: Just tried on an alternative browser on which i have not logged into any youtube account. Certainly works here. Anyone else not able to see the video?
another edit: I refreshed the page and now the song i chose to have applied on top of it seems to be working, i'm going to assume the video is fine now
I use this firmware right now, and transition effects in Sense is ****. I hate this, but I don't want to lose my data in Dead Trigger.

Well, from what i've been informed the firmware itself actually has that implemented. However, it was not enabled by HTC. So although it is actually implemented by HTC, it was disabled and one of the devs had to re-enable it.

see, i had a one x.. rooted unlocked and was running the 2.05 arhd rom.. then i tried going back to stock and locking the bootloader and saw that it showed "relocked" and not "locked" so i used the 30 day replacement policy my store offered and got a new one and im running it stock now.
i dont wanna pay for any repairs i might have to do at the HTC service center just because i "voided my warranty"

Yeah, that's perfectly understandable IMO. I would wait for this rom anyway, it's a real game chaner and i think if i had this rom back then, fresh out of the box, i would have never bothered rooting.
Is anybody else excited for this feature? I'm sure we'll get the 4.2 update within the next few months.
I know it's more of a novelty feature, just like panorama mode, but it would be fun to use imo.
Once this feature is widely available, I think Google should allow people to add their Photoshere photos to google maps.
you can add them to google maps. which is close enough or exactly what you meant.

Flash in zip, this is a working file it installs og android camera and gallery to give you photosphere, your old cam and gallery will still be there but will not do photosphere to find the feature open your new cam app change the type by tapping cam icon and picking photosphere ONLY the gallery installed can view the pics properly enjoy
we will never get 4.2 ...
Very cool, thank you. Once we get a factory Odin image, I'll take the plunge and root and flash.
Anyone else getting crappy spheres generated? They just don't look as good as the one on the demo video.
Edit: I guess it's hit or miss; I just did another one and it looks awesome. Some of the edges are still a bit bad but overall it was very nice, considering it mashed up like 12 pics

WAX ON WAX OFF, keep practicing you will get it its fun!
Hi,
I've created a flashable zip based on the files extracted by dmmarck (it's all his doing! I'm just packaging it). Just flash from CWM or TWRP.
Everything should work: regular pics, photosphere, gallery and editor. On my device, it all coexists nicely with my existing camera and gallery.
Edit: just noticed that garner had updated his own thread with more things working. It seems his archive contains fewer files, which is great if you want to save space. If it's not working for you, though, try this version.
Thanks cyansmoker!
For me garner's zip didnt work. Yours did!
Trying this out now! Thanks!

I just noticed that JB 4.2 camera does not have some features what ICS/JB camera has...
Is there any way to get JB 4.1.2 camera for an second camera without another gallery app? ICS camera ("+" version from play store) does not have good features what JB 4.1.2 camera has! :/

Thanks a lot, I was trying to download the zip from another thread but it just keep disconnecting and restarting. this is working perfectly.:thumbup:
Currently using dark paranoid 2.25.1 tablet mode and this camera app working much better and faster than the stock 4.1.2 camera. Loved that photosphere shots.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
the ONLY problem I am having with the photosphere is that it seems to snap pictures when the blue dot isnt directly center of the target. Its close to but not directly center which leads to most of my pictures being "off" from one another.. I wonder if theres a way to slow down the speed or pause it for a second so the blue dot lines up correctly

In my case, I found out that actually slowing down while panning with my phone made things better. I guess my phone was having a hard time figuring out what I was aiming it at.
i've tried to slow it down also (this isnt the panorama selection but the photosphere), but once the blue dot to line up the next shot gets close to the target recticle center where it should be(might be a better word), it snaps the next picture before even getting in the center if that makes sense
I get force close when opening both camera and gallery app. Hmm.. not sure what's wrong though.
I have a cwm backup, but is there other way to restore old camera back? maybe someone has the original apk for camera and gallery?
if not I'll just do a full restore.

I believe that as long as you delete /system/app/GalleryGoogle.apk and reboot your phone, you should have access to your old camera.
Of course it is different from ROM to ROM...

rename the gallery2.apk to gallery.bak, then try to install. I dont see a gallery4 on mine (current Bamf), just a GALAXY4, which is a lwp and googlegallery is what the new one is (I think).

So after a couple of hours (20+ hours ) i have used stock 4.2 with root. No other modifications.
What I think:
-excellent speed, no lag or slowdowns
-excellent battery life with the new kernel
-the colors of the screen are much better!
-lovely new camera app
Everything is just perfect. What do you guys think of 4.2?

I love it! It's really fast, smooth and stable. Not a single problem in now almost two days. I like new additions, I got used to them right away. But, I've mentioned this before, the new "recent apps" is bothering me. It's really, really bothering me. I like that I can use the recent apps button while in-app to close it, but it stops right there. It's buggy like hell and it makes me feel like I'm on a nightly ROM each time I close an app. And I preferred the transparent look from 4.1. I seriously hope they'll fix it soon. Argh.
But, nevertheless, I love 4.2 - it's amazing.

Well, everything is perfect expect 3 things.
1. lockscreen is a fail... o.o... after i slide to other widget page do something and come back to page where i can unlock my device i have to press a button to get the lockring? O.O also when i resize widgets i gets the lockring to another page and doesnt save the resize wtf really?
2. recent apps is cool, but its laggy. swiping apps is laggy, dont know why? hope we get the fix soon
3. power widgets at notifaction thing is not really widgets. example: if i press wifi toggle, it doesnt turn off or on wifi, it just takes you to wifi settings where you cant turn wifi on or off

of course they updated the kernel! look at the build date! and if nothing changed from the previous kernel, they could have used that one. they used a new one, and there are new changes. look at the 4.2 kernel source and you'll see
Not entirely they fubar'd the internal sdcard. Now everytime you flash a new ROM it will create a new partition in the /sdcard/ titled /0/ and you're f'd if you need a backup because thats in /sdcard/ while you're in /sdcard/0/0 :S

You seem to not understand. The WiFi just shows which WiFi you are connected to. Only actually toggles there are airplane mode, bluetooth and brightness.

Guys I see many of you have lags and bugs, i suggest to wipe everything before flashing, that's what I did and I have no lag or bugs in recent apps or elsewhere...and I'm usually very picky about lags and framerate drops...really 4.2 is as smooth or better than 4.1.2 here...gmail and recent apps are smoother than ever, facebook feed scrolling is finally totally smooth, and generally 4.2 feels fast and solid, I see some nice tweaked animations here and there...
That being said I expected much more from the google development team, sure WP8 lacks a solid ecosystem, but the os itself has some cool features that I'd like to see on android...like the all in one chat app, or the app-personalized lockscreen...our lockscreen widgets can't even compare to that...seems like android team is out of imagination and is just implementing small and not useful things here and there instead of pushing boundaries

So...basically you want them to push boundaries but manage to release a very stable and solid ROM, sometimes as soon as a few months after the last release (4.0>4.1>4.2 in less than a year)? I somehow have a feeling if they had revolutionized the OS but couldn't manage to smooth out a few bugs, you'd be on here hating them for not releasing a stable ROM. I think maybe you should start deving and realize the time and effort it takes to bring new features with true stability.

Hi everyone . since the release of Android 4.2.1 . struggle to zoom the camera , today when i played around with the device i found it .
The technique behind the zoom :
Place two finger at the screen and move one finger over the screen to zoom the camera .
I tried this over AOKP ROM. Hope few would have struggle to zoom it like me . if you know it already well and good . to the unknown guys enjoy it
Hit Thanks and Enjoy :laugh:
I dont know why google doesn't do a "tutorial" type thing for apps they completely redesign. i have see quite a few people asking how to zoom on the new camera. if google did a quick little video or something when opening the app for the first time, it would alleviate a lot of headaches.
just my opinion though
Hmm but it is quite an intuitive feature that's been implemented all over the user interface. It's a simple pinch-to-zoom gesture!
Simple though
Yup its simple but hidden . Got so many days to find it , thought of sharing , so that other can also gain from it

Using digital zoom is a terrible idea anyway. Just take the picture at full resolution and crop it later.
