Original Camera 4.4.4 - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
my camera app is crashing at start after I tried to install the 4K & Timeshift mod. Can anyone upload the stock camera so I can revert this mod? Or do I need to do a factory reset?

go in to settings/apps/all/camera common then clear data should work after that

Factory reset won't change anything since you pushed the apks to system already. Next Time, make a backup, just Download Titanium Backup or something of the like.

factory reset wont work try restoring an old nandroid backup else backup important data and flash stock firmware

[Q] Backup in Recovery

I've done a fresh install of a ROM, done all my settings, installed my apps/ringtones and removed some system apps.
If I do a backup now in recovery mode, will this do a full restore including all above changes?

[APP] Gmail 4.2 unreleased version

Hi...
The test version on next Gmail 4.2 is out and here is the way how you can get in on your phone?
1. Open TB (Titanium Backup)
2. Take backup of Gmail app then uninstall it from TB itself
3. Reboot in recovery
4. Flash the zip (http://d-h.st/1C9)
5. Reboot and enjoy
p.s. - Its running fine on my phone and in case you face any issue then delete the Gmail2.apk from system/app and restore the old gmail from TB.
Thanks to Ron Amadeo who posted this over AndroidPolice
---In case anyone has any issue with this...please pm me.
cheers,

Thank erpurohit!
I'd do everything in your steps, except not uninstall the older gmail app.
I uninstalled first time and then kept getting update notification from Play Store (i.e. it didn't recognize the v4.2 installed).
Then I re-installed V4.2 without unintstalling V4.1 and no more notification.
flashed the zip, without unistalling old gmail because titanium backup kept crashing..
now I'm stuck at the remics-JB logo

I think you can revert back to original one by using the backup created during flashing and saved in your sdcard/universalflasher
or try clearing the dalvik, cache.
I just renamed the old one to gmail.bak and copied the new file to /system/app folder thenc hanged the permissions to 644 and rebooted it works like a charm

you can also try to rename the file using aroma installer in recovery.

Is the problem fixed bro?
You probasbly had another issue to begin with.
tb contantly crashing on backup is a bad sign.
Good luck bro!
Pinch to zoom? Awesome! I think it is a bummer that it took google that long to implement the feature.
Thanks!

[Q] seriously need help

I accidentally deleted some system files from my phones. I want to ask that will restoring my ROM will bring me back those files or is there any other way so you can tell that as well.
The files I deleted were related to sound so now there is no sound on my mobile phone now. I also want to tell you that I am using stock android 4.2.1 rom.
Restoring is your best bet. If you have CWM you can also restore a nandroid, reflash, or factory reset.
If you have a backup to restore that should work. Factory resetting the device will not as it just formats /data & /cache leaving /system the same as it was before. If you dont have a backup you can fastboot flash the /system image from a Google factory image.
thanks
Thank you for the reply.
didn't work
The restore option didn't work. What should i do now?

Did you factory reset before restoring the backup? Yes?
Then you need to start fresh = flash stock through fastboot.

All apps force close (CM12.1)

Hello,
on my girlfriends S4 Mini all apps force close imidiately. She said it started one morning and didn't stop since then. I tried flashing a new nightly and fresh gapps, format cache/dalvik but it didn't help. I just could installeverything again but She needs backups of some apps (data) and sms. Unfortunately, Titanium Backup is not working either.
Does anyone know a way to fix the force close or how to backup appdata / sms without using apps?

Hi there. Just solved a similar problem with one of my friend. I wiped data+cache+davik or say factory reset, from custom recovery and problem solved. But cant say about the backup thing.

I have solved the problem now:
-Made a Nandroid backup
-Wiped dalvik, cache, data, system
-Clean install
-Used Titanium Backup (Menu/Extract from Nandroid Backup) to restore sms and appdata (had to install the apps out of playstore first, then restore only data, not the app)
-Works.

Cant disable extreme power save mode or boot anymore..

Okay so i think i bricked my s6 edge plus... I debloated it and i must of disabled the touchwiz launcher since i didnt use it..So now i cannot disable it ..i rebooted in recovery and cleared cache thinking maybe that would fix it but now when i boot it just stays at the tmobile splash screen..any help? i know i can factory reset but i dont want to lose my data so is there anyway i can fix it like reflashing stock firmware ? It is non rooted and stock recovery.

You either need to Odin flash stock original official firmware
or re-flash whatever zip file rom you have flashed.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

You will NOT loose the data unless you do a full wipe which includes data.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

I did a data wipe in recovery earlier before reading and lost my data.. is there anyway that i could recover any of it like my music mainly? thanks

Your music should be in your internal sdcard, if its not there that
means that you selected to wipe internal sdcard and or you have
done a "factory reset" in stock recovery.
If you done either of those things you cannot restore your music
unless you have backed it up with dropbox, google, onedrive or
other cloud backup services.
Good luck,
Have a great day!
