Reverse cam vid upside down - MTCB Android Head Units Q&A

Hi just bought a quad core Joying unit and also the reverse camera that goes with it. Due to the layout of the car I only had one choice to install the camera and now the video is upside down. Is there an easy way to flip this to the right way up? The options give me a setting to change the view from left to right but not to flip the image totally.
Thanks
***********Edit - Answer is no. Move camera so it faces right way up. ***************

[Q] How to make the "reverse landscape" default?

I have the Samsung Flip cover on my Note II.
Most apps can be used in landscape mode in both orientations but some use just the "default" landscape orientation. Unfortunately, this is the one with the flip cover in user's direction. When the phone is on the table it is slanted downward away from the user and also prevents me from setting the note standing as an "A".
Is it possible to tell the phone to use the "reverse landscape" orientation as the main one?
Also, can I get the stock launcher to display in landscape mode? I've seen there are some utilities for this but none seem to work perfectly. I've read that the next Android version should make this possible..?
(btw, I must say I really dislike the side buttons that are sticking out too much compared to my good ol' Dell Streak - makes it easy to press them unintentionally)

Camera Zoom Fx issue

Anyone here use this? I try to snap a pic in landscape and it saves it sideways. I can always rotate it, but I shouldn't have to. Camera ICS saves them correctly.
Using Tiny's CM10.1 rom.
Does the same for me. Cant find any setting to change it. I dont actually use the app anymore, but bought it back at christmas time when they had the sales for 99 cents. Thought the effects were cool.
Just realized that it does work... The wrong way. I turned it volume buttons down and landscape worked the way it should. There doesn't seem to be a reverse landscape option though. I think I'm going to email them and ask about it.

I always hold mine that way to take pictures - and I use Camera Zoom FX a lot, I have no use for the effects but it's one of the few camera apps that handles display rotation correctly. The stock app is the worst, it rotates the whole display and with the glitchy preview it's a nightmare. Camera Zoom FX rotates the buttons and nothing else, much less stressful on my poor Dinc's GPU. It does only work in two positions though, but I never noticed that before and I take a lot of pictures (it's easier than writing stuff down - lol).

I do like the stock camera and the way it's integrated with the gallery, but it just sucks on the Dinc. CZFX is a really good alternative. Camera ICS is nice but I like the look and features of this one more. I emailed them on the 21st. Still haven't gotten a reply. Volume buttons down just feels upside-down to me. lol. Hopefully they'll implement a reverse landscape feature sometime. Until then, I can deal. Just made it my default cam and assigned it to the Search hardware button. I don't use it anyway, so it's nice to have a dedicated camera button. I use QuickPic as a gallery, so I deleted the Gallery2 apk. Freed up some system space. Default gallery seems to take forever to refresh after I move pics around with a file manager (even after hitting refresh).

[Q] Quick Thread: Remove 90% toggle, add flashlight (xposed)

Hi, first post, great forum!
Thanks to this forum I managed to root and install xposed on my AT&T G3. VERY happy, and I highly recommend this.
There are two small issues that I'd like to change without changing the look a lot. I really enjoy the stock look and feel of the phone.
First is the brightness toggle in quick settings. Right now there are four settings. 0%, 50%, 90% and 100%. With 100% being labeled as such on the toggle. I'd like to remove the 90% option completely so it would just go from 50% to 100%. Is this possible without adding some entirely new quick settings app?
The other thing I'd like to do is add a flashlight to quick settings. Xposed allowed me to add one to the power on/off menu but that's as far as I could get.
Also, the two faces in selfie mode, what are those? It's definitely not dual camera. One mode they face each other, the other they face away. I can see no differences.
Thanks so much!

Hi. To answer your question about the "two faces" in the camera... If you set it to where they're facing each other, the camera will save the picture as flipped. This means that it will be a mirror image of what appears on the screen when you take the picture. If you set it where they face the same direction, the picture will save just as how you see it on the screen. Hope this helps!
If you have xposed download G3 Tweaks Box. You can add the brightness slider in as seen in my screenshot. Also if you hold volume up it will turn on the flashlight(one toy enable it). The tweaks box has a lot of great features just look around in it.
Here is the option for the flashlight.

Question Is 'Stand mode' even possible?. Use front display/camera while unfolded

Hello,
sometimes I'll find usefull using the fold in 'stand' mode, semi flexed about 60 degrees, and working with the front display/camera, is this even possible? I can't find any 'mode' to force using the front display instead of the internal one.
Also, it will be usefull to use the front screen camera while using the phone semiflexed, but again, I can't find the way to select this camera while semiflexed and with the internal display in use.
Thank you !
Hello,
I don't know what settings you have but at 60° I still can see the exterior screen here and front camera is matching exterior too. I tested with closed phone, start screen then open at 60°.
Ok at 45° it's switching to internal screen. Not sure what you mean, but you can play with labs settings and flex mode.

Hey ric, you point me out to my problem, If the front screen is 'on' y can open the phone until more or less 60º, i was ttryng the opposite, start with the phone opened, and begin closing it. Thank you!
Regarding the use of the front screen camera while in flex mode and using the inner screen, is this possible?
Wait i don't understand. If you are watching front screen, front camera is working. But I think it's impossible to use internal camera (no sense to do this no?) Try also modes and routines if you want to test actions with folding status

sorry, i didn't explain it right.
I want to use the fold in flex mode, or even unfolded, but be able to switch (inside the camera app) all over the cameras, even the one in the front 6.2 screen
Why don't you turn the Fold 180° and youse the main camara at the Back. Ok, the phone lays on the front display in this case. Put a silk or paper towel under it and it will be fine.

that's the reason, because I don't have anything protecting the front screen, but yes, that's always an option. Anyway, samsung should let us use all the cameras while unfolded.
well, maybe they should. In my opinion the front camara is the least favourite one to use in almost all possible situations. Selfie? Use the main cam unfolded with the front display as preview. Video call? The display cam under main screen does a good job for video calls and the big screen is amazing for that. Semiflex? Use the main cam for things behind the phone, it's amazing for that.
Just don't use the front cam. I mean, ok, if you need a quick mirror to check your face, than it's the quickest cam ready to check. But in other cases i avoid the front cam.
