Greetings All!
I tried searching the forums for this, but the closest answer I could find was (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916771) - and I'm still confused.
I have a rooted Note II running a stable official Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 with Android 4.2.2.
My question is in regards to the stock camera for the Note II. I really liked that application versus the camera app by Cyanogenmod. I was wondering if there was anyway to overwrite the new camera app for the stock one.
Here's what I've tried so far:
1. I have access to another Note II (a friend of mine's) and I tried backing up the Gallery.apk (and the SamsungCamera.apk (or something like that)) and sending it over to be installed on my phone. I turned off verify apps, turned on Unkown sources, froze Cyanogenmod's gallery app, and then tried installing the gallery.apk, but to no avail. I also tried installing SamsungCamera.apk. I also tried making a backup of cyan's gallery app, uninstalling it, then installing the apks. The error I always get is "Application not Installed."
I have the apks that I'm trying to install uploaded to my Dropbox here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/uqub4hgp80yv8i1/lZEpewNM7O
I haven't yet tried to use the adb command to install the app. Could this make a difference?
Thanks so much in advance. If this question has already been posted, I'm sorry, but would appreciate a link pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks Again!
By stock camera you mean stock camera app provided by samsung's touchwiz? If yes, from what I know it's not yet possible or not possible. As CyanogenMod and Samsung's stock ROM has different frameworks.
It might be possible if someone can port it.

Sorry, but does this also go for the messaging app (the framework issue)?
Thanks!

I've been running Cyanogenmod on varied devices for maybe 3 years now. Wife had it on her original HTC EVO, I've put it on multiple co-worker phones, and I have two HP Touchpads with it for around 2 years. I love it.
However, Cyanogen doesn't have the awesome camera that the native Samsung app has. I have tested over 5 top rated Camera apps from Google Play (Pro HD, Camera MX, Cymera, etc) and none touch the ease, usability, features and quality of the native Samsung app. The "Best Face" & "HDR" are freaking awesome. I haven't seen any app that can touch those two, especially the HDR quality. The 'low light' feature is awesome too, but I didn't test to see if other apps offer the same.
l'd love to donate some change if someone could work out a proper port to Galaxy devices. I can't really goto Cyanogenmod & use the associated bland camera app. With a new baby @ home, that best face is a godsend. The HDR has really popped bunches of our pictures too.

Agreed.
I installed Beanstock (4.3) and love it except...I'm missing the features of the stock camera app, most specifically HDR and low light. Would love to have these features back and would donate as well if someone could help port it.
i also want stock samsung camera i have tested many camera apps but none of them can match samsung camera.
hope someone can help us or guide us
I would also second this! Low light and hdr are by far the best. I NEED an alternative to the stock cyanogenmod but I have fallen short on every search. I would galdly contribute to a fund for a solid camera app. Does anyone running CM have any suggestions for a camera app.
if i wanted to port the touchwiz framework so the samsung camera app will function properly, how would I go about doing this? is there a ton of different files that would need handpicked or is there a folder or some type of label that would mean it goes with the touchwiz framework? or would this take a considerable amount of work i.e. more than one afternoon...
the camera on cyanogenmod was the reason I went back to stock because the samsung camera just takes amazing pictures. the CM camera is a little more grainy and does not focus as well.
hello - "bumping"
any solution found yet?

Okay... 8 megapixels is cool and all - but after owning both phones, I believe the Evo is better... BUT the camera app/ stock in the Epic IMO is much nicer than the Evos.
My question? Can anyone port or mod the camera software from the Epic to use in the Evo? The Epic has all kinds of goodies included in the apk. I would pay /donate to see this happen. I have all the camera files for the Epic if needed or you could get them from custom rom biuld from the Epic forum for 2.2... LMK your thoughts please. I would rather have 5 megapixels and that camera software than 8 and no special goodies.

When I read your subject line, I at first thought you were asking if you could pry a camera out of the epic and solder it into the Evo. You meant the camera APP.
Given that there are third party camera apps (Vignette, for example), it might be possible. But the question is whether Vignette had to do something specific for the Evo, or if Samsung has done something specific to lock it to their phones. You could try downloading an Epic rom from the forums here, find the camera APK in the ZIP file (probably in system/app), and install it. My hunch would be that it won't work, but it doesn't hurt to try.
I tried that. I took all the files out for the Evo camera from Myn's rsl 5 beta (out of the rom using JZip) and replaced them with the Epic files and apk... It booted and the phone works - no problem - but no camera app. It must be specific to the Epic. There has to be a way? Even to make it like an app? To just install on any android? I'm writing this from my Galaxy Tab and it has the same camera app...
The Samsung has panorama, beauty shot, add myself, etc. And the close ups are much sharper.

Hi SGS Folks!
Have you seen how the new Sony's Cameras capture Panorama Photos by moving the Camera all the way the scene you want to capture?
Well today a beta app developed by Sony can do that in our Mobile Phones...
I've found the app in the original thread for a X10 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116055 and i've corrected the script so we can also enjoy this beauty app...
DISCLAIMER!!!
Always do a back first in case it breaks anything and i'm not responsible if anything happens to your house, your town, your country or your dog... Use it at your own risk though it doesn't mean a major threat since the propetary files go to framework without breaking recovery or something else...
Instructions:
1.- Download and flash through CWM 3+ this script:
1.1 - Download Script
The script contains two SE Propietary files needed for the app to work.
2.- Download and install the attached app named:com.sonyericsson.panorama.apk
Install the app normally through any explorer like a side load.
3.- Enjoy!
Attached you may also find a few pictures taken it really works good on daylight!
Glad my work? Buy me a Beer!
hi mate,
you can already this on the Galaxy S using default camera app. Go to the shooting mode setting and select panorama view from there.
Thanks!
I know we can do this from the Stock Camera but what about the people running on CM7? I heard that it can't be done right?
Anyway i think it's a cool app to have
And in stock camera the picture size is 640*480
Thanx for the app,
Viva Guate!
Enviado desde mi galaxy s
so using this app, i can take panorama picture with full 5Mp.?
does this work in CM7 on others phone??
ie: nexus one/ htc desire
Yes it does. Go in the Android app and games forum. I've made the files for specific phones...

You can use the camera in portrait mode, and get a quite large picture that is 640 vertical, if your hand is steady. Mine wasn't when I was testing this afternoon, and I got only 1968 by 544 (I think it throws away the strips that don't match among all the pictures - so the steadier you are, the larger the vertical number of pixels will be.
"Application not installed" when I try to install it after flashing the CWM package first. I'm on Insanity CM 17. Would love to see this work as I used the panorama mode freguently with Samsung Roms.
just google photaf .... that's much better than this one and it's not beta.
Finding this to be a great app! Easy to use and pretty intuitive.
cant get this to work...
followed the instructions on the first post but keep getting "application not installed"
CM7 nightly #47
hi
i confirm...on miui 1.9.2, after installed script with cwm, when i click on apk from estrong file explorer i got APPLICATION NOT INSTALLED
any solution?
thanks

Panorama Beta on SGH t989
Hi folks i know i don't have the same phone as you, and it's been described as "only a galaxy s2 by name" fairly often on these forums, but i'm very much a fan of this app, sony panorama. I had it on my evo 3d, and even with the built in panorama feature in the galaxy s2 phones, i feel this one works much better for uninterrupted panoramic shots, whereas the galaxy s2 feature stitches pictures together resulting in blurs where the stitching takes place and discontinuity of the image.
Anyways. i apologize for this being my first post i have actually been reading around these forums for quite some time, just never signed up for an account.
i was wondering if the file listed here for flashing could be changed to work for the SGH T989, as i have used several files meant for the 19000 such as the v6 supercharger. However, i have also tried to flash a bootanimation only to find under further research that my stock rooted rom does not have an "insecure kernel" and can't flash bootanimations and the like.
So yeah, i was basically wondering if the reason the flash did not work is the same as the bootanimation, and if there's anything you can do to help me obtain this awesome app.
SGH t989 Stock Rooted Rom
My phone (running stock, rooted 4.1.2 at the moment) is getting a little unstable, so I am going to wipe and start from scratch. I'd really like to go back to CyanogenMod-based ROMs, but AFAIK the pen support in these is awful -- S Note is no longer there, and there is nothing in the Play Store remotely as good, and all of the useful annotating tricks are missing.
If this is no longer the case, can someone let me know? I am not in the "scene" and there are so many ROMs posted in so many places that I have no idea where to start. Otherwise I think I will probably grab the rooted 4.3 ROM that dropped a couple days ago and try that on for size.
Thanks gang.
I'm running the gt-7105 cm10.2 .0 and I have been using the papyrus app in the play store. I'm pretty happy with it

No ROMs based of anything other then tw have the functionally that your looking for in terms of the spen. With that said, you can get some decent apps that make it less painful.
When I run cyan or any other AOSP/AOKP ROMs I install spen launcher along with notebuddy and cm spen add on. That combination will allow a pop up menu when you remove the spen that allows you to have access to your spen apps. As stated papyrus is a good one, gnote found here on xda is another, write and sketchbook, you can backup or extract sketchbook from stock ROMs and it installs fine.
Hi! I am currently running the unofficial Lollipop ROM in my Note 2 and I am very happy with it. However, the camera apk is not good. I miss the several adjustments from the samsung camera apk I had for my Note 2 when running kit kat. Does anyone have the note 2 camera apk from kit kat 4.4.4? Thanks!!!
Same thing with me (but for different reasons).
My camera takes a pic, but it takes ridiculous long to appear in the gallery, so the camera blocks. I need a second camera app.
Another Camera
Check here guys might be what ya'll need.

I still use this camera on my Note2.
Enjoy...:good:
Camera apk
I'm in the same boat with those that are not fond of the camera that comes with the unofficial lollipop roms. I tried installing this apk, but it did not work. I get the app cannot be installed error message. Are there special instructions that I should be following? I would really love a different camera on these roms.
Thanks
That's strange... I have the stock CM12 camera app working perfectly... Well, with one exception: I can't select the flash, so... no flash... so, ... well... I guess that's ... not perfect.

Hey guys
So I flashed latest CM11, and cool as this ROM is and how smooth my tablet is running, the camera really sucks. I did a search on XDA and it turns out many people think the same way and there's even a poll comparing some other camera apps to TouchWiz and CM12. Well, I really liked the Samsung stock camera and even though I could use some other apps that seem better in theory, I would like to do the comparison myself. So does anyone know where I could find the stock Samsung Tab Pro camera app? I did a search but had zero results. My last resort is to flash my stock backup and copy it from there but I thought I would ask here first before doing all this. Thanks for any help.
David C.
Even if you take the trouble of getting the APK from your stock backup, there's a great chance that the TW camera app relies on the TW framework and will not run on CM11.
