[Q] 4.2 Camera and Gallery from 4.2 ROMs - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Here's the thing, the issues that 4.2 has with this phone keeps me on 4.1.2. The issues the separate 4.2 camera and gallery have keep from flashing it.
However, the 4.2 camera and gallery that are on 4.2 ROMs right now work. If something doesn't work, it doesn't make it into a 4.2 ROM.
So, now you know what I'm asking... How can I specifically get the camera and gallery that are showing up in 4.2 ROMs?
Thanks

I have a 4.2 rom (baked bb7) that has a fully functioning camera but does not have photosphere. I tried this 4.2 camera mod and many others but the camera always froze when taking a regular picture. Photosphere worked great though. If you wanted the camera without the photosphere that is on this rom you should be able to extract and place the Gallery2.apk in system/app directory and change the permission to rw-r-r, then reboot. I haven't found a 4.2 mod with photosphere to work on this rom yet though.

how to restore old gallery and camera from 4.2 on 4.1.2?

Hello every one. I tried to install the new gallery and camera on my 4.1.2 stock rom but now i want to restore to the old one and default. how i can do it? thank you
Although I'm not sure you can cause of the different files and all, I'm not sure why you'd want to in the first place.
Try flashing one of the old camera files on the forum and see if that helps... look for them in the threads discussing the OTA.

[Q] T Mobile Galaxy s3 cant use camera on any rom based on cyanogenmod

Alright, I know the camera isn't broken because the camera works on any rom that isn't cyanogen based. I made sure i wiped all data and cache before installing cyanogen and I got the correct gapps too, but every time i try to load any camera app, it errors and shuts down. the integrated camera app says "cannot connect to camera" and then closes right away after opening it. How is this fixable? what am I doing wrong?
Bump, Im having the same issue. Its perplexing to say the least.
What camera are you using? I was on Paranoid Android 2.54 and when I flashed the 4.2 camera, it did not play nice. Taking a picture will freeze the app and then from that point on it never connected to camera. Are you pulling the right Gapps?

I flashed black bean v7 along with the gapps they posted on their website for bb7. I've been flashing the 4.1 gapps on the 4.1 Roms and 4.2 gapps on the 4.2 Roms. I did a bit more research and a few people have mentioned a bin file that they grab from the stock image and put into /data on the new rom. I'm going to try that in a bit.

looking for 4.1 camera apk

Hi! I'm looking for a way to install camera app from 4.1 on my n7100.
Now I'm on Cyanogenmod 10.1 with camera from 4.2 & it's awful! Focus doesn't work right & hdr mode too I tried installing stock 4.1.2 + camera from 4.2. It's the same, so it's not Cyanogenmod problem.
Plz help!

Can't install it
"app not installed"
tried to copy it to /system/app & reboot, still the same
Even tried to rename it to Gallery2.apk & replace the original Gallery2.apk in system/app (not Gallery.apk because of Cyanogenmod?).
how should I install it properly?

Sorry i don't know.
But on the stock ROM the galerie and the camera are two different APK.
And you can go directly in the galerie with the camera to show you the pic you just taken, so maybe its needed for it!
Try to instal them both in system APPS.
Here the original galerie to try with it.
as far as my knowledge goes you cannot use Samsung stock features on aosp ROMs like you cannot youse the Samsung camera on android aosp or AOKP ROMs they won't work as Samsung has highly integrated these modules with its touchwiz interface

I think exactly that is the issue. Samsung apps need also the TW framework. For AOSP I can recommend you to use Camera 360 from google play. Makes very good pictures and has a lot of features. App is also for free .
Decided to go 4.1 stock + root. The hdr camera is great, better that in camera 360 or any other app I saw. I also updated camera drivers just in case (turned out I had not the newest one). + I installed 4.3 stock camera with photosphere as a separate apk & that's all I need for now
iam having an issue with my galaxy s2 beanstalk rom my camera is not working
i have 4.4.2 installed plz help me out
Yeah , so far i hate the aosp camera app....it sucks. The touchwiz camera in 4.1 had so many great features....photosphere is a big turd.

[Q] Installing stock apps on custom ROM possible?

Hi guys,
I'm searching from different threads but I didn't get any clear answer. Is it possible to install stock apps on custom roms like Omni and Cyanogenmod? I just want the stock camera of my Huawei P6. Anyone who can advise? I already have the stock apk and the odex file if needed. Thanks.
Anyone? I miss the camera app.

Just the .apk and the odex are not all , we need for the camera some stock libs files to make the camera options work.
If someone knows plss tell us, we really like the stock camera
odex ? Most of the ROM's are deodexed, so creating that odex file it's not a good idea. Anyway, you can just install the app in a normal way, works very good. I have stock camera on OMNI 4.4.4 so, what are you waiting for.

That was just for testing, now I'm using OMNI camera, and I'll try PA ROM when it will be uploaded.

I checked the APKs of Omni 4.4.4 and I saw that there was a camera2.apk and gallery2.apk. Does it mean that the stock camera is already installed? But it doesn't look and feel like the stock camera. I tried installing my own gallery2.apk which I got somewhere but it said "app not installed." Can you share the stock camera you installed in your Omni rom? Thanks
Bump. Would love to see Huawei's camera and gallery app on Omni.
I just upgraded to Paranoid Android 4.4. Still, the camera is the same with Omni 4.4.4. I tried installing the gallery2.apk from official B510 and got "app not installed". I'm getting paranoid here. lol.
Update: I successfully installed the stock camera from B510. I use ES file manager to copy the APK to system/app/ folder then reboot.
But the front camera flash is not working. Also, the beauty function is missing.
