[Q] Where does one find help or docs on a new app like the 4.2 camera

I have downloaded and installed the new 4.2 camera app on my GNex. My question is sort of simple. Where does one find instructions on how to use it? In particular, I am looking for documentation on the new "sphere" feature.

Wait until it is officially released and you will get documents on how to use it.

With all due respect, I don't want to wait. I am looking to this community to suggest places that Google or other knowledgeable users might have put some info on how the app works.

If the info is not yet available.... it's not yet available. You have to wait like the rest of us.

Are you saying that you know the information is not yet available? That is helpful. Otherwise saying "if it is not available then it is not available" is an unhelpful tautology.
I think that the 4.2 camera app is available on a few of the new tablets that just got announced. It is not unreasonable to ask if there is any info on usage or features.

So there should be documentation on something that doesn't officially exist yet? Ok.

No one cares what you want. I want a million dollars right now tax free. Is that going to happen? Hell no.
As for your "situation", you can just learn it yourself by messing around with all the options. It's not likes it's going to kill YOU if YOU do the legwork YOURSELF instead of asking us to do the work for you.

I really don't understand why you guys are all dumping on me. I asked a simple question and a link or quick suggestion would have sufficed. I clearly am capable of doing my own legwork or I would not be running a custom ROM on an unlocked phone and finding and installing an unreleased app.
I love baby pandas.

It's because of 1) your question and 2) your responses.
You're asking if anyone has a link to help about something that isn't released. When you were told there isn't such a thing yet, you sounded like a whinny little kid and said "no, I don't want to. Do it for me". How else do you think rue XDA community (who is known for not searching and asking to be spoonfed as well as dumping on said people) is going to respond?

Because you are wanting bleeding edge unreleased software. This comes at a price and that price is you are part of the first ones using it, so of course there is no documentation. It essentially is a beta, it isn't even promised to work let alone have a users guide for it yet. Maybe in a couple months someone will write a guide telling you what the buttons do.
I tried to help inform you but your general rudeness and 'whining' is making me not want to bother and apparently is having the same effect on others that are normally very helpful users here.

Have you tried it?? It's pretty self explanatory, what are your questions? Also, Google is not well known for documenting their features.

Has anybody tried searching on Google ?

[RELEASED!] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.1.5 for Sprint Optimus G [tethered]

Well, hallo there!
It's been a while since I've posted a release thread on XDA... I've been lurking in the shadows (and on IRC) for quite some time.
Here, I present to you a teaser of things to come:
ClockworkMod Recovery (non-touch) 6.0.1.5 for the Sprint Optimus G.
What is this?
This is a "recovery" for your phone, it allows you to install custom ROMs, back up your phone, fix it when it breaks, and much more.
This specific version is "ClockworkMod", which was created by the CyanogenMod team and Koush.
There are many recovery versions out there, I have picked ClockworkMod because it is very easy to compile and debug.
I will compile other recoveries as time permits.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Where can I get it?
Please go here to download it: http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg/sprint/recoveries/
Note: this is a "tethered" build of CWM, as you can not flash it. You must use fastboot to boot the image every time you wish to enter recovery.
This is due to the locked bootloader on this device.
This will not allow you to install a custom ROM just yet, and please don't ask for custom ROM dates yet. I'm working on it...
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE DOING ANYTHING!
This is *not* safe, and should *not* be done by anyone unsure of what they are doing.
I will post links once I have ironed out bugs, but I WILL NOT SUPPORT anyone using it to modify their phone.
Please don't use this if you don't know how to LGNPST your phone back from the dead, should you accidentally kill it.

Special thanks to user Shelnutt2 for helping me test this on the Sprint variant.
Here's a pic of it running on his Optimus G:
And, here's a video for extra proof
Luckily the video quality isn't potato, but the audio sure is. My explanation is that my HTC Vivid doesn't like me. An engineer's explanation would be that I was speaking softly, as it was 1:30AM at the time of recording, and the phone merely decided that my meek volume was purely background noise... at least, I think that's what an engineer would say, as I haven't graduated yet.

SPECIAL THANKS!
Here's my favorite section of an XDA post: the "special thanks to" section.
Without the help of these awesome people, I would have nothing of interest to say, and would just be a random guy with a phone.

..and Zanzibar (because why not?!)
If I've forgotten anyone, please let me know-- I want to make sure everyone who had a hand in this gets a shout-out.
Please, support these awesome people if you get a chance, or drop by the IRC channel and say hi

Need to get a hold of me, or anybody else? Come on IRC -- just go to http://webchat.freenode.net and use #lg-optimus-g as the channel name. Pick a nice nickname and say Hi
I'm IOMonster on IRC, and if I'm around, just say my name and I'll probably say hi back.

fastboot is the same as with the AT&T varient, aka oem unlock does nothing.

Great work
This is a great start. I can not thank you enough. Like someone mentioned in the petition thread, even if you are not planning to buy this device, please sign the petition for lg to unlock the phone. We need to get a culture of unlocked bootloaders going. Again thanks for the good work

Thanks for the share.. works great.

Does this mean the bootloader is unlock?
Hallowed Is The Sader

At this point no the bootloader is not unlocked though I wish it were I so want this phone but I'm going to wait for a few days and see if they make more progress

Y'all know about the quiet before the storm?
It's coming.
Trust me.
If you were in IRC today, you know what I mean. If not, just wait a few days. We've got very exciting news. (Please, no PM's asking what/how/why just yet.)
Extra special thanks to IRC user g33k3r for stepping up and risking his device many times, Shelnutt2 for being awesome, and Vitaligent for an awesome new boardname.
Sprint Optimus G is codenamed the "geehrc", ATT's is the "geeb".
We're changing it.
Sprint is now the "jeebusc" and ATT is the "jeebus".
Expect some XDA silence for a few days while we build new kernels.

Has anyone provided the appropriate files for the LG U+ Korean variant (the device I am posting from)?

You guys are simply the best. Thank you so much for your hard work. I can't wait!

I would definitely be willing to provide the appropriate files for the LG U+ Korean variant. However I have never used IRC. If the OP would be willing to PM me instructions I would do my best to get the files to him.
EDIT: No rush, no pressure. I understand that the US domestic carriers are certainly priority in this endeavor, once OP has everything ironed out, perhaps then he may be interested/ willing to include international carriers/ variants.

Recovery Is posted under the download link. I attempted to reboot tethered into recovery you posted, but fastboot doesn't seem to want to detect my device. Lg drivers are installed and debugging is on, any thoughts?

So, here's a quick update:
We've got lots of work to do. We have a _very_ viable avenue for FULL AOSP compatibility.
Right now, us developers need to sit down and talk about some major changes to the phone-- and plan out a 'disaster recovery' scenario, since this is no longer a 'quick modification' of the system, but a full AOSP conversion.
Without saying too much, we have quite a bit of proof to support our theories, and a member of the development team is now running the first build of Android 4.2 on his/her Optimus G with very few issues.
It suffers from the same issues that the Nexus 4 does-- for instance, benchmarks are ~4500 as opposed to the 7500 that have been reported by members of the community.
At this point in time though, we will be working "behind closed doors" for a few days until we can come up with a workable solution to this, as the current method is very long and convoluted, and will cause confusion with the Sprint version.
Since I'm posting this same reply on both of my threads (sprint and ATT), I'll give the Sprint update here too...
We've run into some issues with the Sprint version, although it is possible that they'll be easily rectified here in the coming days. Suffice it to say though that we have made less progress with the Sprint variant than the ATT variant (oddly enough). However, I've got some ideas (*cough cough* GPT partition trickery) that should fix the issue.
As usual-- PLEASE do not message myself of any of the other developers asking for an ETA. I know y'all are anxious, but if you really need to know, just stop by IRC and listen for a few mins, you'll probably hear us chattering away about hex offsets and load addresses in between me and my coworker tending to b0rked RHEL installs and Juniper firewalls.
In regards to LGNPST, look for a writeup here soon... I know it's been a source of frustration to some of you on the IRC channel, however please don't expect that I have a full 4 hours to devote to teaching commandline basics for Windows.
Once again, much thanks goes out to Shelnutt2, g33k3r, ilkinasr92, and xboxfanj for all the hard work.
Expect updates on XDA as they come, as usual.
Peace!

You guys are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Full AOSP support!?!?!? Wow, i had to wait months on my last phone. I can't wait so excited!!

"We want ChameleonOS to run on as many devices as possible and to do this we need help from the community. We're looking for those of you interested in being a device maintainer for devices we will support officially. For us to consider a device to be officially supported it must be able to be built using all of our projects found in the ChameleonOS repo manifest. Devices that require one or more stock projects to be removed and replaced by a modified version that allows the device to function correctly will interfere with our current build system. If this is the case, you are more than welcome to maintain your own unofficial builds
Since we originally based ChameleonOS off of CyanogenMod, any device that has official support for CM 10.1 will be easy to convert so that it builds for ChameleonOS. We'll be putting together an easy to follow guide on how to create the necessary projects to be merged into ChameleonOS in order to get your device into our system. In the mean time let me go over some of the requirements we have for individuals interested in being a device maintainer.
1.Familiarity with repo and git
2.Familiarity with the android build system and building a ROM from source code.
3.Know how to use gerrit code review and be able to submit patches to http://review.chameleonos.org
4.Able to debug, troubleshoot, and fix build issues.
5.Willing to keep all projects related to your device up to date and test new changes to verify everything is working as intended.
If you have a device that meets our requirements and you are willing and able to be a maintainer for a device please contact me 0xd34d(at)chameleonos[dot]org. Make sure to provide a couple of references to projects or work you have done that relates to android development. Some gerrit commits are always nice as well as links to threads for ROMs you have worked on. Please don't include any references to ROMs you may have ported. I've worked on ports myself but I don't consider the work done on a port comparable to working on a ROM from source.
Thanks in advance to all those that contact me!

[PORT][ROM] Samsung One 3 [ALPHA 1.5.1 Dev Test]

Hello AT&T SG3 User(s),
I have created Samsung One 3 a PORT of HTC One to Samsung galaxy s3,
I had a report of a XDA Member that it worked on his att sg3, so i need an att beta tester to test this for me,
because if this is true than porting it to the SG3 International might be easier ( Hopefully ), and ofcource will i make some fixes for the att sg3 if this works
Original Topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284615
Download Link to Dev Test v1.5.1: removed
Reason why it will work faster on SG3 att than international is because of the chips
Samsung Galaxy s3 International: 1.40GHz Exynos 4412 (ARM Cortex A9 + Mali 400MP)
Samsung Galaxy s3 AT&T: 1.50GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4
HTC One: 1.70GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600
Pleas tell me if it works or not

First, your zip will not flash because you have a folder in another folder.
Second, you had better change the mount points in your updater-script before you brick someone's device.

Listen,
I understand you want to be innovative and bring new things here but this should be done internally. You should NOT release something like this on an open forum where most people don't read and follow directions. Also, releasing something you won't flash or can't flash yourself is just bad practice. While this isn't your fault, being a dev you should know this. This is brick after brick waiting to happen. I'm not being a hater as I appreciate what you are trying to do but this is just a bad idea.
