Android 4.2 Photo Sphere

Has anyone gotten photo sphere to work on the Samsung galaxy 3? You could download the apk from pocketnow.com and then copy it to the system/app folder. I tried that and it won't install.

Not to insult but did you restart after pushing it to system? I've had apps refuse to install but once I restarted they were good to go

I downloaded the flashable zip and installed it on my TMo GS3. Works fine. PhotoSphere heated up the phone a bit. Had the Camera crash taking a regular photo. That's about it thus far, but I really havent had a chance to properly test ad nauseum.

T-Mobile Galaxy S3 T999 w/AOKP M1 [4.1.2]:
I installed the Android 4.2 Camera + Keyboard bundle and both are working well except for one issue. I cant take and view the sphere photos, but sometimes I get the camera app freezing or not opening. I have two cameras installed and I'm thinking maybe it's good to have only one?

The reason why it force closes is because you can't normally take a picture with just hitting the button you have to to
Tap the screen (manually focus) then wait for it to focus and hit button. Everything works properly when doing that. So basically manual focus every time is needed

I don't see the stop button whenever I use the Photo Sphere or Panoramic mode. I'm running PA 2.52.

Works great on my S3 with Serenity 1.2 ROM thanks to that awesome guy DG ... sphere shot is amazing and keyboard is great thanks...

Like sarani84 says, before you hit the capture button tap the screen to manually focus and than take the picture. Everything works for me on AOKP M1 with mikeramsay's apk.

How do you fix permissions? I have my photo sphere working, but when I take a picture with flash, app freezes.

Play Store 3.9.1.6, Gmail 4.2, camera 4.2, keyboard 4.2 , and clock

I am posting these because I keep seeing links go dead on to much leaked android 4.2.X stuff. None of these are from me at all, Just sharing what I find. I've seen androidpolice and other sites have to remove there links to some of these app's, so I am just posting what I got and will try to keep stuff up to date.
This guy: http://www.qbking77.com/index.html has a lot of videos on the changes in the new leaks. Also search his youtube vid's for instructions.
Google play store is cool because you can remove old app's you don't want any more on your app history etc.
Gmail,s biggest change is that you can pinch-pull to zoom in-out. And swipe to delete a conversation.
The new keyboard has better swipe and lots more to.
I think the new camera is bad to the bone! Do a google search and read up.
I hope ya'll like these, Just remember to use at your own risk
This is the new play store 3.9.1.6 : http://d-h.st/vSI Install like any apk but you have to have unknown sources selected in order to install anything from anywhere but play store.
New Gmail :http://d-h.st/6Uf, you have to use something like rom toolbox etc. to uninstall gmail. Then reboot and instll and your good to go.
This is both camera&keyboard together : http://d-h.st/tQE . Flash this in CWM orTWRP
This is camera only : http://d-h.st/Qd5
This is keyboard only : http://d-h.st/RWx
This is the clock: http://d-h.st/S4P <-I have not tried the clock yet!!!!

Links
You got the same links for play store and gmail they're both the play store :silly:

Thanks, I fixed it.

What is the clock?

Camera:
- Taking pictures is fine, really good quality both front and back
- Sometimes the exposure options don't apply
- 360 sphere panorama is BADASS
- Normal panorama is perf
- **Video recording is bad quality, and the playback is just static and never shows what you recorded**
Keyboard:
- Settings crash when you try to add your own word to dictionary
- Swiping method works perf
Gmail:
- Can't get it to delete my old gmail. Maybe its my ROM or something that doesn't let me mount as r/w, so I put it aside for now.
Play Store:
- Deleting uninstalled app history functions great.
- No bugs as of now everything works as it should

You can use apps like titaniam backup or rom toolbox to backup your data. Some roms don't like data to be restored though. Or you can back up your rom first and try a dirty flash,just wipe system and cash without factory reset depending on what rom you are trying.

Camera issues

I'm running CM 10.1 & my camera reboots every time I take pix with flash enabled... Not only on this ROM though but aosp ROMs period... So does anyone know of a camera I can use on 10.1??? If so can u link me to??? Thanks in advance

Sometimes it takes longer than a couple of hours before someone can help.
Anyways, can we have a little more information?
When you downloaded CM10.1, did you do check the md5sum to make sure your download wasn't corrupted somehow?
When installing these various AOSP Roms, did you just wipe /data and /cache?
In past Roms, have you ever tried a camera mod or something that might affect the camera?
Are you using a custom Kernel?
I would try the following:
Verify that your download was complete (md5sum). If not, redownload.
Do a full system wipe. Not just a factory reset. I'm thinking something left over in your /system is interfering with your camera.

I've done all that bro.... no cam mods... nothing... everything is as it should b... and it only happens on AOSP roms for me.. on two different s3's... I don't need a fix I just wanna know if I can just use another camera app.. if so.. can someone lead the way

try downloading an apk for a different camera. also trying making sure you kill all your apps and release some ram. I never had the cam issue but had so laggin issues n what I just explained fixes all that. also when u downloading the rom and installing it. did it give u the option to choose different cameras? like with morph we get to pick which cam app is wanted.

Is there MP4 support with this ROM? Many 4.3 ROMs I have tried, do not have native MP4 support as of yet.

Thank you sir!

This would be perfect with the camera toggle + good working audio mod like AC¡D & Noozxoide or V4A...
A power button quick toggle would be awesome too - I'd like to keep this physical power button in permanent retirement.

@Cameron581 halo will be in next build, hopefully up tonight, @JesusWazBlack No thank u and the whole community for the inspiration to do this at all @zhab Got u man I'll throw some audio in and some toggles, thank u guys for the ideas keep them coming...

This is totally easy to Add but its a annoyance for me add photosphere camera I have the flashable zip its just a time consuming thing I guess

Great job! You're a brave guy opening the floor to any kind of requests!!
I know one guy that will go nuts about how super amazing this is cause of linaro!! LOL
Me....I so wish that sugar pill word would go away!
Tho I know its faster/better to build with.
Thanks again! I'll be trying it out for sure once 4.3 gets a little more smoothed out. Even taking my N7 back to 4.2.2 for a bit. Lol

Great ROM, but...
-MP4 files on the SD Card, cause the Gallery to reboot the phone
-Focal PicSphere doesn't work at all. It force closes Focal
Nothing was dirty flashed, 100% clean install.

@tribalartgod - remove all your videos and photos from the internal and external sd cards, clean flash, take some photos/videos to create a new DCIM directory, wipe dalvik & cache, reboot, then move the old files back into the sd card

Yeah, I got desperate and started looking through other devices threads. I even made a noob mistake and flashed a ROM for another device and bricked myself, thought it was just a flashable zip for photosphere. Don't know what I was thinking, it was late at night. Thank god for backups.

Not sure how much this will help the effort but... If your using team lgog sources it's a rebase of the e975 if they have it working for them I would try the same files/method/apps whatever they are using to get it working... now if it's just not working for 4.3 or for any e975 rom we might just be SOL until someone figures it out
