Pictures on Google Earth

Hello,
Can anyone advise if there is a way taking a picture on your camera and then having it display in something like google earth/google maps so it shows where the picture was taken from?
Cheers

yep, theres a function in the new camera for the htc (im not sure if theres just a .cab to install, yyou may have to flash a ROM) and then in the camera, theres an option for something like a location picture, along with image, video, panorama etc.

All you need to do is activate GPS photos using HD Tweak no need for the new camera

I've enabled the GPS option on the photos but how would I get these to show on Google Maps? Any ideas?

Enable light for video?

are there any ROMs that enable the light for video recording. or is this not possible? i would assume it would just need to be enabled some where in a root rom since the icon is there it just doesn't enable it when you press it in the camcorder app. i've done a search for this with no luck. i'm sure someone here has asked this before or would like this enabled. TIA.

I am also interested in this.
I suspect it that it wouldn't be possible to integrate this into the android camera app.
Not sure though.

If your rooted then use Xposed Framework

I would have used any call recorder there is, IF it was able to record both sides when using a BT headset.
Unfortunately, there seems to be none around. And believe me when I say that I have tested them all....

Even unlocking the hidden built in call recording functionality?
Sent from the mighty Note II

Hmm. That's actually the only thing I haven't tried. Simply because I thought
it would have no impact, since BT recording DO work, but only the other part.
And since no one has ever actually confirmed that BT recording really work.
Anyway, thanx for the input. I guess I'll give it a go. :good:

There is no separate setting to enable in the settings menu. In order to be able record calls (both sides of the conversation), you would need a rooted device. Then install XPOSED framwork. Download and activate the 'Call recording' module within the XPOSED framework. Check youtube videos on how to installed the XPOSED framework.
If done properly, you should find a call recording Icon in you CALL screen (when the call is active).
cheers.

I hope i'm not too late to answer your question.
Just wanna makes thing clearer:
If your device already rooted and already installed Xposed Installer,
then open Xposed Installer --> open "Download" section, find "Enable Call Recording" module, click on it then download. Before that, you can see in "download" section if you're already install the module or not.
After you install "Enable Call Recording" module, back to Xposed Installer menu, open "Modules" section. check the EnableCallRecording module.
then Reboot.
After that you can record your conversation manually (as far as i know). When you call someone, Record menu (with cassette icon) will active after the phone call is active (when someone you call pick up your phone call). Then you can record the converstion by touch the cassette icon.
REC files are saved in "Sounds" folder in your phone memory. The file extension is .amr

Love that application. Especially since it upload my conversations automatically in the cloud.

There are many call recording apps for Note 2
As of 2015-06 there are many free apps that record calls on Note 2.
Make sure you only have one of such apps installed, since having multiple call recording apps may cause issues and prevent those apps from recording a call.
None of these apps require a rooted Note 2. I've tested these apps on my unrooted GT-N7100.
Apps are listed here randomnly, it doesn't mean that app no.1 is better than others:
1. Call Recorder. Clever Mobile
2. Record My Call. RMC - Android Call Recorder
3. Call recorder. ViktorDegt
4. Total Recall. Call Recorder. Killer Mobile
5. Automatic Call Recorder. Appliqato
6. Call Recorder - ACR. NLL
7. Call Recorder. Boldbeast
8. callX. Automatic Call Recorder. SMSROBOT LTD
Personally I liked callX the most. I record to .mp3 using High quality settings. Sound quality seems to be as good or even better than you get when using other call recording apps on Note 2.

[Q] Xperia M video/still camera questions (blueish tint)

Greetings, Xperia M, Build 15.1.C.2.8, Half-rooted (unable to do the full root, I don't know why so I can't do the RW thing)
Like most of you have probably noticed, the stock camera firmware has a bluish tint problem. The camera works great in the daytime, really good actually. But doing some camera app testing in a darkened atmosphere I took some pics in my bedroom with the flash, and the pics look really BLUE. My walls aren't blue, they are yellow haha. After testing with other android camera apps such as ProCapture, the pics look as they should (no blue walls). So it's obvious that it is the stock sony camera firmware that is at fault since other camera apps make the pics look normal.
So saying this I went ahead and froze (disabled) the stock camera app so I could launch ProCapture with the hardware shutter button. But now I have no video recording app ugh. So two-fold question please:
1) Is there a way to make our hardware shutter button open up a different camera app such as ProCapture? If so, how please? (Like mentioned above I was only able to half-root it, the full root instructions just haven't worked for me no matter how many times I tried)
2) If not, and I do have to disable the stock camera app so I can launch ProCapture with the hardware button, can you recommend me what video recording app I can install that can takeover just video recording duties? I think it would need to be for video recording only otherwise I may run into problems with the hardware shutter button again. It has been remarkably hard to find a video recording app on the app store! I have no idea why this is.
Thanks much for your help. BTW, I like the phone. For the price, I think it's really good. And more importantly, the size and shape fits me perfectly :fingers-crossed:

For your 1st question.... I'm not really sure on the x m but when I was still using an mtk phone I was able to change the camera button to open any app I want in android.policy.jar or was it framework.jar (cant recall).. Cant remember which smali it was but I stumbled on it via search for text using notepad++ ... I searched for com.android.gallery in our Xperia case you should search for semc.android.camera (not sure if thats the correct package name for the stock camera app) and change it with the package name of the camera app or whatevar app you want the camera button to launch

try this lg camera : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677645

Thanks for the replies. As far as LGCamera goes, it seems to not have been updated in almost two years so I left that one alone. Did find an app called "A Better Camera" which also has video recording in it. So I disabled the stock camera and have just been using A Better Camera and it also launches from the hardware button. Better pics too in the dark with the flash. At least my yellow walls aren't blue
Edit: Okay, I have found a way to be able to launch a third party camera from the hardware button WITHOUT freezing (totally disabling) the stock camera app. This then will allow you to use a third-party camera app such as ProCapture etc (that don't have a built in video recorder), allow you to switch between the third-party app and the stock video recorder, but then also launch the third-party app using the hardware shutter button. In other words, the best of all solutions.
You need to at least half-root the Xperia-M (many threads found here how to do that) then get the AutoStarts app from the play store: (not allowed to post links yet). Just search AutoStarts from Michael Elsdörfer
Once you start AutoStarts, scroll down and find "Camera Button Pressed". Select Disable for all the cameras EXCEPT the one you want to use the hardware button for. You're done now. All the camera apps that you selected disable for will still work when using their icons, the one you didn't disable will be the one that starts with the hardware shutter button.
Note: I also tried the app "Default App Manager Pro" and set ProCapture as the default camera. But that didn't do anything, no effect on the hardware shutter button (still opened the stock camera). So far the AutoStarts method is the only one that has worked for me.

Zoe on cm based roms

I have sense camera working fine in candy rom, I can download Zoe from the play store but when it opens u get an error, is there any way to get it working?

Pretty sure it relies on the Sense framework, no?

Do u have raw mode enabled in the camera as well???

Yes and no, it shows in the options, it allows you to see it and view Raw/ manual through the camera but on taking a pic it closes bad times.

I'd read that it was available on the play store, also that people had got it working but I got that error, not the end of the world.

If whAt youre trying to do is enable the zoe camera in the htc camera app, here's whAt I know . It's disabled in camera app by default on m9, however, if you go to system/customize/acc/default.xml, under the camera section, find the string that says "can enable zoe"- change from false to true.. however that by itself doesnt work , then find the string that says "features version" I believe on the m9 it says 8718- Change that to 13414 then reboot. Go into camera app, zoe camera is now enabled and selectable- However, now Raw camera has disappeared and isn't selectable.. I'm currently workingto find a modded camera.apk that has all camera modes selectable (Raw, Zoe, Bokeh, Photobooth, split capture, selfie, ) etc...

Cheers mate, but even the app won't load it up so not sure if it'll work or not.. Will keep that in mind though.
