When opening the camera, I set the scene mode to Action. Doesn't freeze for me anymore.
If you have a custom recovery menu, try wiping cache and dalvik, then "fix permissions". That fixed my issues when opening camera.
It did not duplicate your gallery. It just gave you another one. One is your old 4.1 gallery, the new one is the 4.2 gallery. If you use the new gallery, you shouldn't have any of the issues. I didn't have to set to action, either, as the other guy suggested.

I don't do it every time - only when the app doesn't work as expected. I don't think it would hurt to do it every time if you want to.
Well the camera locked up on me again. Earlier when i took a sphere picture it worked. Then i tried taking a regular photo of my daughter and same issue earleir...couldnt access the gallery and now xamera will not connect. could this just be a bug? Should i....and how would i get this camera off my phone?

I'm only using the 4.2 camera and gallery for the sphere photos. For normal photos I'm still using the stock camera.
Try downloading the camera from my dropbox link. The first zip I tried flashing had problems. This one has been perfect so far.
If it doesn't work for you, I'd use Root Explorer (or something similar) and delete GalleryGoogle.apk and GmsCore.apk from /system/app. That's all I think my flashable zip installs. I'm not sure what the one you installed had in it.
Yeah im not to sure. Ill look back at the folder when i get to my comp. Ill get the zip from ur link though thanks

I honestly don't think the 4.2 camera is ready to be a daily driver for somebody who takes pictures on a normal basis. Just grab the gallery2.apk from the original zip of the ROM you're using and put it in system/app to get your good old camera back if that's what you're wanting.

Is there anyways I can get this working on the gs2 without running a custom rom and staying stock? I've been looking and didn't find anything. Just did it for my friends gs3 and it worked perfectly. Can't find the files on my gs2 so I guess it must be a lil different on this phone.
Edit: This is what I was trying to do. Actually I want that option to link more than 5 contacts too!

Thanks for that link. But I think if I'm stock rooted I'm odexed correct? And the 5 contacts thing is not regarding sending mms. It let's you link more than 5 contacts. Samsung has this stupid restriction which makes me have duplicate contacts for some people once I link all 5 and the person has more accounts with other apps that sync to my contacts.
Edit: Tried to flash your modded camera and it killed the auto focus beep but volume keys didn't work to take the pic nor did the on call feature work. Went back and completely uninstalled the camera before flashing again and that did the trick. I still have a shutter sound tho. How can I delete that?

The stock roms get released in odex and deodexed versions. If it worked for you, then I'm guessing you're deodexed.
With root explorer you will have to look in system/media folder. I can't recall exactly which sounds are related to the camera but they are named pretty well so it shouldn't be to difficult to figure out. Just rename them if you're not sure instead of deleting them. I think you also provided a link to something about the 5 contacts. I'll take a look at that too when I have time.

This is a noob question, but does this work like the stock Gallery/Camera combo where you can see your Picasa folders? When I was rooted and using a stock Rom I would always upload immediately to Picasa and delete from SD/phone and still be able to see my pics in the folder. Since I switched to JellyBam Rom, I no longer see anything from Picasa, although I can still upload pics to Picasa. I flashed GAPPS 4.1.2, and everything works on the apps, except for the Picasa/Gallery thing. Any help in figuring this out would be greatly appreciated.

This is correct! Thanks for the heads up on the AT&T SGS III. However since "Action" scene is required to be able to use without freezing users should also note that "Action" scene does not have Flash functionality. (No Pictures in the dark). "Auto" mode still freezing up when Auto-Focusing. I'd say if you want the camera to play with Photosphere and never take pictures in the dark then this APK is for you.
That's is working with no problem on JB 4.1 TW base.And the good part : it not replace the TW camera!

About the 2 gallery's/2 cameras: In your app drawer after flashing the first one is stock, second one is photosphere. Just go to the app info and disable the stocks.

I've been running this for about 3 weeks and I have never had to set the scene to anything in order for it to work I just leave it on Auto. It just worked 100% straight outa flashing.

Wondering if anyone was able to get it to work on Shelnutt2's CM10.1. I keep getting force closed on camera, gallery works fine though.
[SOLVED] It wasn't working because of a mod on the media_profiles.xml file that I was using. Once I went to the normal file, it started working.
I can confirm rear and front cameras as well as photosphere work on Lifeless 14 however photos are limited to 8mp.

Is that the one from Banks gapps?
Edit: I flashed photosphere. Then the new camera app installed; however, it force closes when opening the camera app.
I just tried on Shelnut2 CM 10( build 6.27).
What I did to make it work was (using Titanium Backup) uninstall Gallery. You will get a notice if you want t, uninstall gallery2.apk, hit yes. Then install Google edition camera apk and the camera should work with 13 MP, not reboot necessary (although it is recommended).

Interesting, in Titanium, I see Gallery 1.1.400001 and when I try to un-install, it says "Cannot remove system app, Failed to locate the apk file"
It's weird because with other system apps, I can remove without issue.
Edit: Figured it out. It was because of a mod on the media_profiles.xml file causing it to force close.
This may be a dumb question, but where are you getting photosphere from to flash before installing the new camera app?
Also will it work for stock ROMs as well?
Does this replace the stock camera app?

It should work on stock roms as others have done it. I don't think it replaces the stock camera, instead you may have 2 camera apps (make a backup of the current camera/gallery app before installing).
Have you tried just installing it like a normal app? That should work.
If you need the photosphere addon, you can find it here: Banks Gapps Photosphere
Works nicely on Jellybeer.

Works well with AOKP, btw I didn't the flashable zip that was included in that thread and had no issues at all.

I asked this same question in a different post. Remove ALL MP4 files, and the reboots stop. Unfortunately, we gotta wait for support, or use a replacement gallery that does support MP4 on 4.3... I have yet to find one.
Full system reboot? That's some interesting exception handling!

I'll give it a go tomorrow. The issue isn't the gallery itself. That works just fine. The issue comes along when you have MP4 files that the gallery tries to read. I have no clue why most ROMs do this...But I will certainly give yours a go and see what's up.
Thanks for this, btw.
