There is an app MyRoll that you can use to view any image on your phone, however I have not been able to find a way to make it zoom in on any of the images.
Here is the link for the app on Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flayvr.flayvr

I had this issue when I was using my 360 on an HTC Desire. I really hated the build in photo viewer app, so I disabled it in settings. Every time I went to customize the watch face it ended up crashing. Once I realized I had disabled photos (or whatever the stock photo app is called) I re enabled it and then custom backgrounds worked. Kinda dumb, but I just didn't think about it since I had been using other stock watch faces and Facer before this.

Using Fire Phone Camera App (Lenticular mode) on other Android devices

There is a lot of information about using android apps on the Fire phone but I have not been able to find any about getting the stock camera app to work on other android devices.
I would like to be able to use the lenticular function on another device that is running android Lollipop (or any version, even through DuOS) Or if it's possible how do I find and then install the fire Camera apk? I know that it uses the dynamic perspective cameras to view afterwards but it doesn't on other tablets that do no have it so there shouldn't be any special hardware requirements.
The lenticular camera option just lets you take a picture then onion skins (shows the previous picture transparent over the screen) so you can align the next picture - and so on, then creates a gif/ animation that you can save and share or view by tilting the phone. On the fire phone it lets you view by moving your head but it works by just tilting on other tablets. I've yet to find another app on android or otherwise that allows for this function and it's the best feature on the fire phone imo. It seems like this would be a very easy app to make or feature to add but Fire Os Camera app is the only place i've been able to find it. If there is a way to get the app to work on other devices that would be great or if there was a way or another app already around that does the same thing - even better!

The stock camera app relies on a vast amount of the amazon framework, so unfortunately not a feasible option.

{TOOL}{APKtoTV} Convert any app apks and games apk to a tv app!

i have been browsing around trying to find out how to get any app to show up on the stock nvidia sheild tv.
i have came across this windows tool called {APKtoTV}. which you can convert any apk to make the apps show up on the homescreen as a tile.
i thought i would share my finding so everyone else can enjoy this tool.
so here is the link to this page where i found it at.
LINK - http://nvidiashieldzone.com/shield-android-tv/apk2tv/\
ENJOY!
HERE IS MY VIDEO PROOF OF THIS TOOL WORKING BY SHOWING YOU MY HOMESCREEN SO YOU CAN SEE THIS WORKS.
https://youtu.be/VO3sAdKdebE
This is a sweet little tool. I used it to get WatchESPN on my Shield TV with a better looking banner until ESPN finally releases an Android TV version. If they ever do...
Nice share reading it I see what it doesn't do
What it Does NOT Do
- Fix portrait apps to be landscape
- Add Shield Controller support or alter how Shield Controllers work with the app
- Fix, alter or otherwise remove the "touch only" requirements for apps
- Make an app work that doesn't work through regular sideloading
- Fix any bugs or glitches with the app running under Android TV (in fact, may introduce new ones)
What I use to force apps to be in landscape mode is this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2331514
Cheers
Nice Find :good:

This app works for me- for the most part. I've converted some apps that were already installed on my shield but were not showing up in the main launcher. They converted fine however I lost mouse support for them so it wasn't really a benefit as I couldn't use the app properly. I'll keep fooling around with other apps but for now just forcing apps to go in landscape mode and launching from the sideload launcher is fine.
I'm on Windows 10, it complains about not finding java on startup (even though it's installed) and comes up with errors when saving..
I find a website have many apps for TV
www.apk4.tv
The app doesn't seem to be updated anymore... but seems some one has made an on-line tool doing pretty much the same: http://atvlauncher.trekgonewild.de/

animated photo as lock screen problems

I used to be able to use an animated image from the phones lenticular photo mode for a lock screen. Now if I try it just says preparing to share and then makes a really cruddy blurry picture that isn't even animated out of the moving picture instead. I am on 4.6.6 and have the amazon photos app icon. I tried on two other phones in the family and we all have this issue. Anyone else having this problem and has anyone found a solution yet?
maybe due to the most recent updates, for example i can no longer use the built in video app to stream from online, it just doesn't work since they updated the photo apps

I understand fire phone is not their priority but it seems a bit odd to kill lenticular functionality and leave it since that is basically the best thing the phone has going for it. Disappointing.
you can go to "applications & parental controls \ manage applications\ Filter by downloaded
click at photo and uninstall update.
you will can use 3d dynamic lock screen by lenticular photo again.

Top Apps That Require Google Services, and a Workaround for Huawei Phones

It’s no secret that Huawei’s latest flagship phones does not support Google Apps. At launch, there was a way to sideload the GMS and Google Play Services, but that was quickly taken down. That leaves us in a weird place. We have this flagship Android phone but a limited app store, the Huawei AppGallery, and no Google apps or services.
We wouldn’t really know this we use require GMS to download or to use. That doesn’t mean there aren’t work-arounds for Google’s own services or some other apps. Below are some of the 10 most popular apps and services and how we managed to get them working on the Huawei Mate 30 Pro without GMS or Google services installed.
Watch the Video Here
APK Pure
Since we don’t have Google apps, that means no Google Play Store. Going around and searching for each new app update and apk as they are released is annoying to say the least. APK Pure is an app store that essentially replaces the Google Play Store. It’s a better service to use than downloading APKs directly because it supports installing split APKs. This means apps like Spotify can be installed through APK Pure even if you can’t sideload the APK normally. It will even handle installing updates!
To install APK Pure, all you need to do is sideload the APK Pure app. Once installed, you can search for and install any apps you please. It makes for a very good replacement to the Google Play Store.
You can install APK Pure pretty easily
Download the APK linked below
Install it.
Enjoy your new App Store.
APK Pure
Telegram
Telegram is one of the apps that doesn’t require GMS at all. You can sideload it and use it normally. The only downside of not having GMS installed is the lack of location services. Many apps, including Telegram, require GMS for finding and sharing your location in an app. Telegram, being one of those apps, won’t have access to your location without GMS. This isn’t a huge deal as every other feature works perfectly. To install this app, you can install it through APK Pure or download it through APK Mirror and install the APK yourself.
Installing Telegram is actually really simple.
Open APK Pure
Search for “Telegram”
Select Telegram and hit “Install”
Enjoy your honestly amazing messaging client
Telegram on APK Pure
Gmail
Gmail is a bit of a special case. For Gmail, there is no app that will work. Other email apps like Outlook work, but Gmail doesn’t. That doesn’t stop the web version from working. You can easily just go to the Gmail website and have full access to Gmail and your email. It isn’t as great as the app, but in a situation like this, it’s the best you can get and it’s good enough for the basics.
Gmail Website
Skype
Skype is one of the older and most loved chat platforms. I’ve had it for years and it’s easy to use and honestly just great. Luckily, not having Google isn’t going to stop you from being able to speak to your friends and family on Skype. Everything in the app works perfectly fine without the need for GMS.
To install Skype, it’s simple, just use APK Pure.
Open APK Pure
Search for “Skype”
Select Skype and click “Install”
Enjoy Skyping your friends and family
WhatsApp
WhatsApp is probably one of the most popular chatting apps worldwide. There are over 1 billion people on WhatsApp. WhatsApp can’t just leave you in the dark if you don’t have Google services, so they don’t require it. That’s right, you can use WhatsApp on the Huawei Mate 30 Pro without it. It works perfectly with no features missing.
Installing is as easy as pie as well.
Open APK Pure
Search for “WhatsApp”
Select WhatsApp and install it
Enjoy messaging your friends “What’s up” on WhatsApp
Facebook
Last but not least, Facebook. Facebook doesn’t require Google Services what-so-ever. You can just sign into your account and it will work perfectly. This is because Facebook designs their apps to work on any device, no matter the services installed. All you need to do is sideload the apps and it will work perfectly.
Installing Facebook is also super easy to install
Open APK Pure
Search for “Facebook”
Select Facebook and click “install”
Facebook is now installed and works, sign in and catch up with your friends.
Facebook on APK Pure
Twitter
Twitter, like Instagram, doesn’t require any PWAs or require GMS. All you need to do is side load the app and it works! Just like Telegram, it won’t be able to find your location. This generally isn’t an issue though, you can just type in a location to find it. Installing this is just as simple as the others, all you need to do is sideload the APK and it will work.
You can easily install Twitter with a few clicks
Go to APK Pure
Search for “Twitter”
Select Twitter and click “install”
Enjoy tweeting!
Twitter on APK Pure
Instagram
Instagram is one of the most popular social media apps I’ve ever used. Luckily, it works perfectly without GMS. Unlike Telegram, every feature in the app works. All you need to do is side load the app. You can install this through APK Mirror or APK Pure.
Installing Instagram is something you can do in a snap
Go to APK Pure
Search for “Instagram”
Select Instagram
Click Install
Take and post all the selfies your heart desires
Instagram on APK Pure
LinkedIn
LinkedIn actually works really well without GMS. Everything about the app works so you can check in on your contacts really easily. The only thing that won’t work is signing in with Google, but that’s not a huge deal since you can just sign in using your email. Everything else about the app works.
Installing LinkedIn is just like installing most other apps.
Go to APK Pure
Search for “LinkedIn”
Select LinkedIn and click “Install”
Enjoy connecting with your connections
LinkedIn on APK Pure
Spotify
Spotify is one of the great apps that doesn’t require GMS what-so-ever. All you will need to do is install the APK through APK Pure. Spotify does use split APKs which means you won’t be able to sideload just once APK like many other apps. Once installed, it will function normally. You can sign in using Facebook or your Spotify account, everything works.
To install Spotify, it’s really simple.
Open the APK Pure app store
Search for “Spotify”
Select Spotify and click “Install”
Follow the prompts to install Spotify
Enjoy your music!
Spotify on APK Pure
YouTube
YouTube is by far the largest video media site on the internet. It has almost every video you would ever want to watch. It has so much and can entertain you for hours on end. Sadly, YouTube requires GMS as it is a Google app. Luckily, there are alternatives.
The first alternative is just using the YouTube website. You can go to YouTube.com on the Huawei Browser and have full access to your account. It will also allow you to sign into your account and view all your recommended videos.
The next way to get it working is using YouTube Vanced and MicroG. Luckily, neither of these apps require root. Installing is pretty simple as well.
Download the MicroG and YouTube Vanced APKs
Install both MicroG and YouTube Vanced
You can now sign into your Google account and view all your recommended videos and subscriptions
YouTube Vanced and MicroG APKs
Google Photos
Google Photos is the absolute best service Google has ever released. It allows you to store all your photos in a high quality formats. This is an amazing service, but sadly, it will crash without GMS installed. That means you won’t be able to use the Google Photos app. Instead, you can use the website. The Google Photos website allows you to view every picture you’ve taken and synced with Google Photos along with allowing you to upload photos to Google Photos.
Alternatively, you can use the Huawei Gallery app. The Huawei Gallery app allows you to sync data with Google as well. Using stock apps on your phone is always better than alternatives, so syncing with Huawei Gallery with Google data could really be your best bet.
If you aren’t into Huawei’s Gallery and want to use Google Photos, you can use the Google Photos website. It is really simple, all you need to do is sign into the mobile website through the Huawei Browser app. It has a great and easy to use UI along with the ability to upload photos.
Google Photos Website
Google Maps
Believe it or not, Google Maps is one of the few Google apps that actually works on EMUI 10 without Google apps. The full app doesn’t work, but the main and most important ones do. You are able to search for locations and navigate to the location. You can’t sign into your account or use previous locations through location history, but the main, and most important, parts of the app works.
To install Google Maps, its actually really simple.
Open the APK Pure app store
Search for “Google Maps”
Select Google Maps and click “Install”
Enjoy Google Maps!

Look, Google services are a huge part of Android, but that doesn’t mean you need them. It’s not going to be a perfect experience using a Huawei Mate 30 Pro without Google apps, but it works and most important services you might be interested in running on the phone should work well. There will be an outlier here and there, but most of the time it will be fine.
I bought my Mate 30 Pro, the Chinese LIO-AL00 variant, before the Google app ban and I was disappointed to see it was. As I used the phone without Google apps, I realized that they are less and less necessary if you are willing to work around it. The hardware and cameras are just so good, it’s worth the trade-off of ease of use for that amazing hardware and camera.
