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.

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...

How do you fix permissions? I have my photo sphere working, but when I take a picture with flash, app freezes.
i flashed the 4.2 camera earlier. i took one picture, it gave me a error, after it froze, it said that it couldnt access the gallery. after a restart, i went to the camera, cant access it says cant cannect to camera. this is for the new 4.2 camera, and i have the stock camera as well....dont know if this is or was an issue to begin with. but it says the same thing for it as well. cant connect. it also duplicated my gallery. any help is appreciated

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.

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.
Also, because of this I have working flash as well.

No, it's not unstable. You did something wrong, or your ROM is interfering.

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.

its the media profiles that messes it up. i pulled the one out of beanstalk and moved it to the ETC folder and it works now. heres the file!
Works well with AOKP, btw I didn't the flashable zip that was included in that thread and had no issues at all.
I'm not rooted and I got it working fully but for some reason mine only goes to 8mp. Not a big deal for me but still would like the option.

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that both the launcher and the new google now seem to work fine on the LGOG.
Everything is pretty snappy and there are some cool new features.
Wanted to let you know, the new google now has something similar to the "always listening" on the Moto X and it's really cool.
Haven't run into any issues, but if any of you guys do, go ahead and post them!
Steps:
Manual
1.Download and install PreBuiltGmsCore.apk, Velvet.apk, and GoogleHome.apk like any other apk.
2.Using a file manager as root, copy libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so over to /system/lib and overwrite if prompted to.
By Flashing
1.Download and flash GOOGLEHOME.zip.
2.Using a file manager as root, copy libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so over to /system/lib and overwrite if prompted to.
New 4.4 apks including Hangouts, new camera, new keyboard, new google now and launcher:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-google-home-android-4-4-launcher-apk/
libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so:
https://copy.com/aGcxY (Thanks jblazea50)
Confirmed working on:
Carbon ROM
Slimbean
CM 10.2
Troubleshooting:
-If you can't find /system/lib, try a different file manager
-If Google Now force closes, try changing the language to English UK (though this doesn't seem to make a difference on the LGOG)
I can't seem to get Google now to go past "initializing". Tried changing the language to no avail

To get Google now/search to work, you need to take the file from the zip and place it in system/lib and change permission.

I am hearing that this thing is pretty ugly due to it being for a 1080 screen and most phones are still 720.
If you have it loaded can you attest to the "ugliness" due to the screen difference. maybe a screenshot?

Has anyone gotten this to work? I've tried everything and I can't get this launcher to work??? I can get google now to work but when trying to open the launcher to work it says "google search has stopped" Idk I'm about to give up...
idk how i got here...
Same boat, FC Google Search when trying to use the launcher. Everything else seems to be working, saying "Ok Google" works if Google Now is open, but have tried all fixes for the launcher and still get FC's.
I'm gonna try to make a list of ROMs that the launcher works on (after file overwrite at /system/lib).
Could the people that it works for please let us know what ROM they're on?
