Accidentally erased my camera app. All others suck. Can anyone supply a download of the original updated app? Currently running true ancestor 1.6 with doomkernel v14. Seems like a lot of work to go back just for the camera app.

Go market find camera mod for Xperia play. Stock camera app with L button to focus and R button to capture.
Sent from my awesome Xperia Play with DoomKernel
No need for modded, get 2.3.4 system dump and put apk to your phone.
Thank me then.

That is not the same. It doesn't support 720p video or continuous focus. All it does is change buttons. Don't get me wrong I wish the stock camera app was set up that way but I'm going quality over convenience. Thanks any ways.

here this is the camera app..this one is modded by me with black theme..you can use R shoulder button to take pictures and also features 720p mod. place camera.apk to system/app and set permission for it..
Works great, I got the best of both worlds here. Thanks to all you guys for saving my a ton of time , and for the quick response.

File explorer must be capable of mounting system as writable. I use ES File Explorer. Go to ES file explorer, settings, root settings, tick root explorer and mount file system. Then back to explorer, copy / cut the things you wanna move, press favourites on the bar, then / , now you will be in system. Go to system, app, paste in there. Then long press the apk you've pasted, press properties, then change permission to rw-r--r-- done

This guy right here is awesome, I got one small concern here, after I over wrote my camera.apk my phone automatically rebooted itself, should I go back and change permissions to rw-r--r-- or is it functional the way it is?
You will have to change permission its necessary for almost all system/ apps

Camera App Not Installing

Im running true ancestor 1.6 with Doomkernel.
Using root explorer it will not allow me to install the app, no error message is given it just stated app not installed.(permissions are set right) the stock camera app is uninstalled due to having the camera mod.
I have installed the Camera Mod from Play Store however i would like to get 720p video. Any solutions.
Regards
Nathan

no you wont be able to install,unisntall the camera mod then you have to push camera.apk to system/app
First get root explorer and then move Camera.apk and go to system/app folder there at the top right hand side there is a R/w and R/o option ,select read/write(R/W) then paste it , it will ask you to repalce the caamera just select yes and replace,then fianally hold camera apk and set the permissions to rw--r--r--

Question...can I open a rar file on my phone? I tried renaming it to a zip but when I extracted it there was nothing in the file
You should be able to with most file manager apps like astro or androzip.
Astro has the option but rarely works for me... maybe it's just my phone XD
That happened to me once. But on my nexus and I was playing around with ninja morph. Anywho I was running cm so I just reflashed it without wiping or anything with the same rom I was using and it put the browser back for me and didn't messing with the settings or apps. Maybe you could give that a try if worst comes to worse. Just if you have a theme you will prolly have to reflash the theme also. Hope you get it working though!

If I long press on the files I get an option for permissions. I can then select read-write options and then ok. But when I go back into permissions, they have reverted to their original state.
EDIT: Ok, I finally saw what you meant and installed the files, but no app in app drawer. I have rebooted just to be sure.
Go to were the browser Is downloaded to and longpress then select copy. Then navigate to /system and at the top of the screen toggle the button that says R/O to R/W, then select app dir and hit menu then paste.

Hello I am using Xperia Arc with 2.3.4 rooted
I want to hide my camera application
before 2.3.4 update I used to hide camera app using smart bar(in application manager there is app called camera). It worked successfully
But after 2.3.4 upgrade there is additional app named Camera 3D along with default Camera . The problem is that Camera 3D is not visible in application manager of smart bar. So I cannot use above method to hide it. Is there any simple way to hide Camera 3d ?
I think following method might work. Please correct me if I am wrong as I am nob to this stuff !!
1)in the file manager I found there are 3 camera related apks in /system/app folder viz semcCamera3D.apk,semcCameraUI. apk,CameraExtentionPermission.apk
2)I think if I delete semcCamera3D.apk ,camera 3D will disappear permanently . I am correct ? Is it safe to remove semcCamera3D.apk?
3)adao file manager says I do not have permissions to delete files in /system/app . Even when my arc is rooted. Is there any free gui app like Root explore to delete such system apps?
Sounds like you're not rooted to me.. But why would you want to hide/ remove it anyway?!?? If you do then try using Titanium Backup to freeze it.

Hey guys I don't know how to make Music.apk run after installing it on Walter's Defy+ ROM...
I searched the forum and did what ppl say: put Music.apk to system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r-- reboot the phone.
After that, depending of Music.apk, I have immediate FC (with CM7 Music.apk)or I can enter the app and get FC after selecting music track to play (with MS2Ginger 1.1 Music.apk)
I really don't like BlurMusic.apk so I would like to change it somehow
Please help...
ps. After removing every Music app from phone I managed to install Leaked Google Music app 4.0.1: Link
But that way it's not system app but User's...And I don't like this Music app that much (widget is so ugly and stupid)
try PlayerPro
It's my favorite music player app and you can install light blue skin that nicely goes with 2.3.4 blur firmware.

copy music.apk in system/app via root explorer(before copying press 'mount r/w' icon at the top, it will than change to r/o). long press the file you just copied. from the menu choose permissions and from there enable read/wright/execute in user category. then reboot
Nope, it's not gonna happen
So, Im using ES file explorer, but with root rights and mounted File system...I did change permissions to rwx r-- r--, and rebooted, and FC
Tried with cm7 Music.apk, with miui Music.apk, with MS2Ginger 1.1 Music.apk...
I don know what else should I try...Maybe reflash the whole thing and start from the beggining?
Oh yeah, I uninsttaled blur Music.apk...Maybe that is why nothing is workin...But that is a silly thought
............
Or just install PlayerPro
i installed ICS ROM v1 to my Samsung Galaxy Y
it works, but there's a problem
this thing always come out (attached),
and i cant find the Gallery,
any suggestion ?
which ics romv1?please post the exactly name

http://www.4shared.com/zip/Qh7B2YYx/NextToICSRomV1signed.html
ahh,next to ics rom.
Problem 1:
Some users find that the Swype is force closing, and the absence of gallery and music in App drawer.
If you face this problem, here is what you can do:
1. Using root explorer, delete Swype.apk from System/app (or) uninstall swype using link2sd.
2. Try looking for play music and gallery ics apk in system /app. If present MOVE them to SD card using root explorer. Tap rw at the top to move.
3. Reboot.
4. Install the following attached apk's in the post: SwypeICS.apk, and GalleryICS.apk, Google play music. apk or from the apks which you just moved to your SD card. For better performance of play music, again move the apk to System /app...and set permissions to rwrr. (Tick the first two boxes in the first row and the 1st box in the other two rows) and reboot.
5.Enjoy.
Problem 2:
ICS Gallery is not working on my phone.
Solution:Have you done it properly? Try again. I've fixed the link. Still if it doesn't work, I'm afraid you will have to install the old Gingerbread Gallery. Copy and paste gallery3D.apk from attachments into System/app using root explorer, set permissions to rwrr and reboot.
Problem 3:
Status Bar does not appear.
Solution: Re Install the ROM from beginning. It happened because the flashing was not done properly.

I posted this because surprisingly I have not seen this post for our nexus 4. Thank this awesome guy from xda for creating this for all devices!!! Here's the link to his post and also here's some snapshots
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2143860
Oh if you didn't know you can pinch to zoom to do this awesome zoom effect. Try it out!! You have to flash through twrp or cwm. It will install the xperia launcher as well so if you want that aligned perfectly you have to edit your build prop. How to do that?
Easy!!
1st download es file explorer (its free)
2nd when you open es file explorer hit the menu key and tap settings
3rd scroll all the way down and click root settings and check all the boxes.
Now that you've done that, hit back until you get to a sign that pops up and says "press again to exit" then don't exit obviously.. You've just got full access to your files!! Meaning be careful which system files you touch! You only need to modify one. Trust me. It sounds hard but is a lot less complicated. Simply navigate to system/ then go all the way down to build.prop. simply tap on it and click es note editor. Then locate " ro.sf.lcd_density=320" then simply change the 320 to 340 and save. It will automatically create a back up build prop for you. Here's where you really need to watch out. Make sure after your done editing and saving your build.prop you TAP AND HOLD build.prop and scroll all the way down to properties and tap it. Then tap change and check all the boxes on the left and below write tap the top middle box. If your confused I posted a pic below... What your are doing here is setting permission to the file you just modified. Then now that you just set permission your good to reboot!!! After you reboot you just flash jb gapps and clear cache and dalvik cache. And your launcher is perfectly set. If you did not fix permissions the way the pic looks you won't boot up at all you'll only be able to fastboot. That's why I say its important to follow step by step. Also the reason I say flash gapps is because if you don't you won't be able to install certain apps in the play store (it'll say device not compatible). No more misaligned launcher!! If your don't like the launcher simply use titanium backup to remove it or search through file explorer. Bye all!!

Cool.
[NEXUS⁴] [CARBON1.6] [MATR1X8] [TWRP]
If I remember from the Nexus 7 forums correctly, changing your build prop will cause future Android update to fail during installation. This looks awesome though.
It may cause problems with installation with modified changes
But that would just require you to go back to stock with our recovery tool. I never update my ROM straight through a custom rom. Or simply use your "back up build.prop" that I mentioned es explorer does automatically for you and rename that back up back to build.prop then delete modified build.prop. Of course always make sure you set your permissions even on the back up !
