[Q] Taking Screenhots

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is some easy way to take screenshots.
Other Samsung devices have a shortcut for this: http://opensourcehacker.com/2011/02...g-galaxy-s-and-other-samsung-android-devices/
The Glide seems not to have.
So is there any other way? E.g. by defining some app in "Settings > Applications > Quick launch" ?
Or is "Screenshot" an app, removed in OsiMood-Rom?

I use the 'Home + Power key' combo to take screenshots. No special apps installed. Screenshots are saved in the 'ScreenCapture' folder.

mhh ok... my glide seems to recognize this home+power shortcut but it throws me an error:
The application com.sec.android.app.screencapture has stopped unexpectedly
:-/

Sorry for your trouble. I've soft-bricked my phone several times tooling with apps I shouldn't have and such, and I am rooted on the Craniam OC Kernel and the stock rooted ROM, but I've never had issues with screen capture working. I don't know how extensive your mods are, but is it possible some app manager is freezing some component of the system that screen capture needs? Shot in the dark but I hope you get answers.

if you have OsiMood or INC3PTION, you wont be able to use the HOME + POWER for screenshots for it is considered to be a bloatware so removed....you can search the Glide forums for the screenshot.apk found in stock ROM.
Errrr....just take the attached file and put it in /system/app

^^^^^
Thanks and any precautions like say giving permissions while placing in that folder??? Thanks again...
UPDATE:-
Done and is working perfectly... Thanks... Just use the "mount RW" option when copying that attached file to /system/app folder... No need to change the permissions.... Thanks a lot again...

Oh yeah sorry, forgot to metion that you need system to be writable (RW). About permissions, just give it full (rwxrwxrwx), Android will change and give it the right permissions after a reboot....

Hi there - I am on OsiMood and have replaced the existing file with the attached one - but it's still not working for me. I get the "...has stopped unexpectedly".
What to do?

Hi - thanks for your response, but I'd really just like the stock screenshot app; it worked just fine and is free. Why can't I use it?
Thanks! :good:

Sorry don't know was just recommending an alternative that works for me. Also I like that it is not always running in the background and only launch it when I need it, unlike the stock one that is always running.

[Q] 4.2 Camera APK?

Forgive me if this is a pointless question, but I'd like to know how to install the 4.2 Camera on a ROM? I apparently flashed the 4.3 Camera app and have been getting reboot issues with it (sometimes when I use the camera in apps like Instagram, it'll reboot when I try to take a photo) and the only fix (so far as I know) is to revert to the 4.2 Camera, but I don't know exactly how to go about getting that? Would anyone be able to help?

I had this problem before. Follow these steps:
0. Download the 4.2.2 Gallery2.apk
1. Use Root explorer or ES file explorer and navigate to system/app. Backup your current camera or rename gallery2.apk.bak .
2. Copy the Gallery2.apk
3. Restart your phone.
This should fix the problem. If you're still getting problems PM me and I will try to help.

Hi, I found this topic earlier because I am having the same issue as afrobull. I followed the instructions--thank you! I'm still getting reboots. I know the camera 4.2 installed and I got the "android is upgrading" message when I rebooted. Is there anything else? Thanks again for the first tip.

Have you fixed the problem? If not have you uninstalled the Camera APK, clear cache/data and deactivate the app? And then install the apk.

first off have you installed anything in regards to sound(mods, apps....) if you have uninstall them now!!!
second off if you have installed apps since last audio uninstall them if that does not work go into recovery and do a factory rese(backup apps first) do NOT install apps after wipe and check if audio works if it does it was one of your apps if not bring phone in for repairs
you go in to recovery by turning off phone and holding power and vol+ until you see the lg logo then release a second and press BOTH buttons again and hold then chose factory reset
edit: beccause you did to try swapping it if they allow that otherwise it needs to be send to LG repair

I'm having same problem.
Can you send me default build.prop file or factory reset is necessary.
Also, did you later manage to modify build .prop without loosing sounds?

What lines did you mess up in the build prop? I'm having the same problem. Happens when I change my LCD desnsity to 530 with Root Browser. It's happened twice. When I tried to overwrite my build.prop with the one provided below it soft bricked my phone and I had to flash stock rom from my computer.
Thanks

Guys,
Any time you make edits to the build.prop make sure you take a copy of the original so you can revert back if something gets messed up.

This has happened to me also. I edited the build prop with Root Explorer and it has messed up sound settings.
I had changed the value for Multi window for all apps.

Hey Guys,
Could someone please provide a new link to their working build.prop file?! Preferably stock.
The link above no longer works!!!
The same happened to me while editing the build.prop file
Thanks in advance

[Q] Camera not working

Hey gus,
today my Camera suddenly stopped working properly. When i try to use dual mode or start taking a video, the app suddenly crashes.
I already tried a factory reset. After that I could not even find the app installed, it disappeared. When I reinstalled it (backuped the apk before reset) I got the same issue: dual mode and videos not working. The phone was rooted and I used the camera mod that sets the 1080p framerate to to 60 fps, but the camera worked properly until today. In addition to that the media profiles xml should be original again since I did a factory reset, so this should not be the problem.
Anyone pls help me.

Maybe someone can upload his/her camera files so I can try installing another apk? Its possible I got a damaged apk or so..

When you change something in protected area i.e. system you change it for good. No matter how many factory resets you do it would stay the same. Applying camera mod involved modifying mediaprofile.xml that is in system/etc folder. Only way to fix it would be to grab the stock mediaprofile.xml and put it back in the system/etc folder.

I guess I'm not the only one having issue with the camera mods. I changed framerate to 1080p60, but got worse results and the phone got stuck on the boot screen. Had to use the flashtool to go back to stock. If your phone boots, restore the xml as previously mentioned. Im curious, which version of the G3 do you have?

Thanks for your answers
@enaybee: could you please upload your original file? I just dud a backup of the apk, forgot the media profiles.
@garykl: Got the german 16 GB version from 1&1

Here you go media profile xml

Thanks man, now I just need to reinstall it as a system app, can you explain what i have to do? I put it in the priv-apps folder and etc folder, rebooted, but nothing happened

Just grab the mediaprofile.xml and place it inside /system/etc directory with the help of any file explorer that gives you access to system folder (requires root) like root explorer or es explorer. Make sure stock file replaces the modified file. Reboot and that should take care of the issue if it was only caused by the mod.

I already did this with es explorer, set the permissions to rw r r and rebooted, all files are in the right folders.
Still no camera app

Maybe it doesnt work because we got different phone versions?
I checked the model number and it says D-855
Edit:I dont know why, but suddenly the app appeared in my drawer. Problem solved, thanks alot for your help [emoji106]

"Unfortunately, Camera has stopped." message, please help!

Hi,
On my LG G3, camera displays the unfortunately camera has stopped message. I cannot access the camera using this application nor through any 3rd party applications. I can however access the front facing camera using snapchat but not the rear. I have tried the method of clearing cached, data then force stop it and reboot. This does not solve the problem. I have also rebooted the phone in safe mode to determine if it was interference from any 3rd party applications however even in safe mode I got the message, which leads me to think maybe a hardware problem. Can anyone offer some advice?? The device is not rooted. I go on holiday next week and was looking forward to taking some good pictures with it too!
Regards
Ajay

did you make any mod for the camera ? like video quality or bitrate ?
if you did your problem is with the permission of the files you changed. it happended to me too.
i decided to reinstall everything since a wipe didn't solve the problem. later i discovered that i forgot to chance the permissions. so the reinstall was unecessary...all i had to do was give the right permission as was stated in the post about the camera mod.

Do you have a 3rd party flashlight app installed? I had a similar issue and backtracked my installed apps a bit. I removed apps that I knew had access to hardware (removing each one at a time and rebooting my phone after each) The 3rd try was my flashlight app. After rebooting, the camera was back to normal. Also... the front camera likely worked because it doesn't access your camera's flash. Just a guess on that last part mind you. Hope this helps.

but a cse flash deletes all apps which he had done and still no luck, seems like a hardware issue to me

I agree. A hardware issue possibly caused by an app that isn't talking the camera flash's language. Just saying... I had the exact same issue less than 12 hrs ago. I see your point though.
