New Camera/Gallery 4.2 CWM

Hi, This is my first Thread on xda, so please be easy on me...
I found and tried this new Camera/Gallery for the Nexus 4 on the Epic4G
I can confirm that it's fully working with the latest CM10 Nightly Nov 1st.
The gallery feels and looks much faster and better than the older one
and the camera looks cooler and it's feels faster at taking pictures too.
Update: The new Photosynth shooting mode Doesn't work on our phone because it lacks gyroscope sensor [Thanks @nvertigo for pointing this out]
Flashable CWM
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...gallery-app-with-new-ui-editing-photo-sphere/
if flashing didn't work, you might need then to do it manually as in this post
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...220830-jelly-bean-4-2-camera.html#post2279243
*You need at minimum ~12.2 MB of empty space before flashing of the actual system rom!
I Uninstalled the stock launcher and replaced it with another launcher from the market to solve this problem.
*To force the new Camera to work with hardware button, you might need to disable/freeze the older gallery after selecting the new Camera/Gallery as a default app.
So again here are the steps for the easy way to install the new camera:-
1- Install Third party Launcher of Your Choice
2- Uninstall the stock launcher (Trebuchet)
3- Flash the New Camera with CWM or TWRP (camera42_patched_v2 CWM Flashable.zip)
4- Open Gallery and click on the Camera icon, and then you will have a choice to select your default gallery/camera (select com.google. Gallery)
5- (Optional) To force the new Camera to become the default one, go to settings/apps/all and select Gallery with the version 1.1.40000 and disable it or delete it, don't disable the new gallery that has the version of 1.1.40001.
6- That's It, Well Done!.

I flashed this in CWM on my Epic 4G running AOKP (ICS 4.0.4) Milestone 6, stock kernel and it didn't seem to work. The stock camera app would load instead. Then I remembered to re-flash the ZIP and this time I did the 3x Wipe Cache and 3x Wipe Dalvik.
I rebooted and hooray, both the gallery and new camera are working without any FC's so far. Plus, I deleted the APK for the stock camera app and the new one loads up just fine with the hardware camera button.
You guys really should check out the "time lapse" video recording feature. It's pretty slick!

This didn't work for me until i updated to 11/01 nightly CM10. I managed to get the app running but it FCs when i try photosphere. Any advice?

youre probably missing the photosphere lib in system/lib
from not enough space in the /system partition

Thanks, that solved the problem.
It's not FCing anymore but I'm getting the error that a lot of people seem to be getting in the android police link. photosphere is extremely slow almost completely immobile after the first shot is taken, properly moving to the blue dot is impossible, and going left and right is impossible. is photosphere working perfectly for you guys?

No, I have the same problem here too

According to reddit, this happens because our phones don't have a gyroscope. I guess this is a brick wall.

I had the same issue, but I got it to work by downloading both .zips, extracting both, then I deleted the live wallpapers and gallery2.apk in /system/app and copied over the files from the manual .zip to /system/lib then I copied the new gallery/camera from the flashable zip to /system/app, set permissions for all the files, rebooted and there it was.

I went a head to test the flashable camera again and wiped Data/Cache/Dalvik/System and flashed the latest nightly cm10 Nov 09 rom
The problem is Cm10 System partition is full, look at the first picture attached and you will notice Titanium backup reporting that system ROM has only 81.9 KB of Free space!. So if you tried to flash the new camera with CWM it will NOT be actually installed even though the cwm manager says the flashing was successful.
To solve this problem, you need to free 12.4 MB from your system partition. so if you install another launcher from the market like Go launcher or Lightning Launcher etc... and uninstall your stock launcher (Trebuchet) from your system rom you will have the required 12.4 mb for the new Camera flashing (like in the attached picture 2).
So again here are the steps for the easy way to install the new camera:-
1- Install Third party Launcher of Your Choice
2- Uninstall the stock launcher (Trebuchet)
3- Flash the New Camera with CWM or TWRP (camera42_patched_v2 CWM Flashable.zip)
4- Open Gallery and click on the Camera icon, and then you will have a choice to select your default gallery/camera (select com.google. Gallery)
5- (Optional) To force the new Camera to become the default one, go to settings/apps/all and select Gallery with the version 1.1.40000 and disable it or delete it, don't disable the new camera that has the version of 1.1.40001.
6- That's It, Well Done!.

Galaxy S2 - 4.2 Photosphere and Gallery FULLY WORKING

A Fully Working Jelly Bean 4.2 Camera (with Photosphere) and Gallery (with Editing)
After much work, here's a fully working app.
Tested on the Galaxy S2 GT-I9100. (Also suitable for the International Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note)
Just flash the attached ZIP file Camera_4.2_GT-I9100-rishtrix.zip
This does not require copying of files to system libraries, editing and setting permissions. Its Simple, JUST FLASH it !!
Obviously, this requires a deodexed rooted phone with Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and up
Flash the file via Recovery.
Hit the THANKS button if you like my Post. and let me know in case of any issues.

Works in CM10 (4.1.2) ?
This flash, replace the original camera to Photo Sphere ?

flashed, added one more camera and gallery in app drawer, photosphere working, but video recording not working(

Yes this should work on CM10 - 4.1.2
It will not replace the original app. It will create another camera app and another gallery app.
The best part is you can use whichever you want.

Yes at the moment video recording is a bit of an issue.
But since it creates a separate camera app, you can always use the stock camera for video recording and this one for Photosphere and Gallery Editing.
At least Photosphere now easily works on Galaxy S2 !!!

Doesn't work for me, photosphere works partially, it is discalibrated, can't hit blue point.
Any solution?

This should work if flashed correctly. It requires the use of the gyroscope.
Check if thats working fine and calibrate your device.
As of now, it has been tested on Galaxy S2 and works fine for many users. Which device are you using ?

I've calibrated my Galaxy S2 and still does not work.
Maybe im doing something wrong with flashing, but application open's it's like gyroscope doesnt work correctly.

Always get suspicious when a new registered (jan 2013) user claims to have something finally working and have stuff to download and install. Be vary with files you download and install on your phone/computer. If this turns out to be a real thing then thanks and props to you OP but understand my suspicion.

CM10 Camera Issue

Ok, I've commented about this several times in the CM10 Discussion thread and nobody seems to give a rat's bum...
When I take a picture, the EXIF info is saved as December 2008.

There are not much differences from ics 4.0.4 to jellybean 4.1.2 so i prefer to use stock rom which has less bugs
I'm using hono stock cwm flashbale v20c
I need help to port or add qmemo app from v20f bell rom to v20c at&t
And i wana add it to quick setting menu to be able make screenshot.
I did ask it in a new topic before with no result and success !
You are a developer and i used your rom liquid nitro ,Can you add it to quick setting menu ?

Why not just run v20f? Once you put in the APN info it runs just fine with AT&T and with the additional tweeks it offers better battery life and a newer improved Adreno driver plus it offers the quickmemo you love its a win win for you.

Vibration on key press are too strong??
Does anyone feels that the vibration when hitting the "menu, search, back" buttons in CM10 is to strong??
Is there any way to reduce the vibration feedback?

This question is almost exactly like, if not completely different than the thread topic... but to answer your questions: I wouldn't say it's too strong, but it seems that it vibrates twice for each press. no.

Have you tried reflashing the camera and the lib files as well ? i know the lib files have something to do with editing photos and stuffs, cuz i had to flash them after installating the 4.2 camera with new ones or editing would not work, maybe try to reflash the right lib files that comes with the camera version you are using.

You can extract them from the .zip of the rom you are using or a basic CM10 if you are using camera 4.1, if using 4.2 you are gonna have to find the complete package that comes with the lib, look for the thread called "android 4.1 to 4.2" and extract them from its package or extract them from a CM10.1 package (not sure that works tho, used the android 4.1 to 4.2 package in my case)
As for the files, you need to extract:
In the zip, they are in system/lib and are named libjni_filtershow_filters.so libjni_latinimegoogle.so libjni_mosaic.so and liblightcycle.so
Once you extracted the files, (backup or rename the old files 1st) copy them to your phone's system/lib using a root explorer (es or root explorer w.e you like to use) and make sure to change the files persmissions to r-r-rw and reboot your phone.
If that doesnt work, l really dont know ...

[Q] Stock Jelly Bean Camera

Hi.
I'm amazed with lgog features, but I want to use stock jelly bean 4.2 camera(like on nexus 4) as my default camera. But no apk from different devices with different firmwares is working on my E975!
I'm on stock jb. Please, help me to install camera app!
Ps. When I install any gallery2.apk and push some files into system/libs gallery works fine, but camera app doesn't launch.

Does anyone have an answer?

No you can't.camera is not just the gallery.apk,but framework too.so it will never work a 4.2 apk on an a 4.1.2 framework,not without modding that apk.
Also don't forget nexus 4 has 8mpx camera,whule the 975 has 13mpx.so stop trying.

But you know, there is a port from 4.2 to 4.1 which includes some lib files that you should copy to /system/lib. I've tried this method too, but it didn't work for me. Anyway, thanks for your reply

This mod helps out the quality of the stock 4.1.2 camera, but doesn't add any of the features of the 4.2 camera. Its better than nothing, better than stock, and retains 13mp integrity.

[PORT] OxygenOS 2.2.2 Camera for OPX

i started with this port for oneplus 2. after some modifications and help of testers it works now for oneplus x too. most of the things work!
bugs:
- opening recorded videos with stock player inside camera let's crash gallery. go to gallery instead or use other player/gallery
- dark picture with force flash on daylight (rom issue?)
- manual exposure limited to 2sec (rom issue?)
edits:
- added first zip
- added updated port and a version for sultanxda's rom
- added new zips, better HDR performance and new gallery
- added new zip from @etoy, out of newest OOS 2.2.2
- flash in recovery and enjoy. stock or other camera apps will NOT be replaced!
- previous users of h2o cam should uninstall old version first
thx to me for deodexed oos301 rom
don't copy nor upload it somewhere else!
to be continued...
