Just downloaded it from there... and it's acting wacky! The image is a bit skewed and then the preview of the pic it took is also blown up too much.
Gonna extract it from MIUI for Inc2 which is what I probably should have done.

Man I would love a deblurred version cuz the lack of internal memory on this phone is driving me crazy!!

Any update??

sorry, just had a baby boy so a little distracted from posting. here it is just replace original build.prop with this one, then do a factory reset and you will have a deblur version.

Hmm think i'll try this out for a while til my upgrade. Do i unzip it...replace it where? in the system folder? and then just factory reset??

Unzip the downloaded file (will contain build.prop)
Get a file explorer (like es file explorer) and go to setting and select the root explorer
Explore into "system" folder, and create a backup of the existing build.prop file (to your memory card)
Replace it with the unzipped build.pop download.
Factory restore and you're done! If you don't like, just copy the backup build.prop file and overwrite, factory reset and you're back Blurred!
one question though...how does one transfer all blurr contacts to gmail? Tried this file on my wife's phone and could only restore gmail contacts...

Yea got it to work...deblur is much appreciated....phone is way more manageable and I can actually download apps again!

are there any differences in this file other than the addition of the line
Code:
ro.mot.deblur=true
??
Edit:
Found the answer, good work. Only issue I had was the one time init was black text on black background.

This is a pain in the ass. Go to each and every contact, unlink them then delete the blur contact so you're only left with the gmail contact. Then go to your accounts and sync gmail contacts so they are all synced to google. Turn off sync to blur if possible (sorry its been a while doing this cuz I got an atrix that allows me to choose where I want contacts saved). This should solve that.

The method posted works just fine, if you're stuck at the boot animation, reflash from the sbf and try again, it's certainly not bricked.

It didnt brick it.
I reinstalled the stock froyo. Works fine. Thanks. I had accidentally uninstalled the blurhome.sys or whatever.

this build.prop overclocked the terminal?

Don't know about that but it might be because when I used this tweak, my device would reboot every 5 minutes or so. Flashed back to stock froyo and hasn't had a reboot since

Nope.. If I remember correctly, it disables having to log into a blur account, and disables the home launcher (causing the screen to be black). Probably a few other small things..
To avoid the black screen, you can copy an apk of another launcher (launcher pro, adw, go launcher, etc) to /system/app/
Been awhile since I did this, so I may be missing something

you'll need to be rooted, and use an app like Root Explorer, or any app that has a file manager that can access system level. go to System>App> and find two files, one is SamsungCamera.API and SamsungCamera.odex either change the name of both of these files (eg: SamsungCameraOLD.API and. odex) or delete them, either way SamsungCamera.API and SamsungCamera.odex should not exist anymore. now that you've done that, use that root file manger to place his hacked SamsungCamera.apk and place it in the same folder (System>App>). then restart your phone.
note* you may need to mount your R/W card, you can simply do that by the giant button at the top of Root Explorer.

Thank you! I figured it would need to be dropped in somewhere just didn't know the right location for it. :good:
EDIT: now that I got in there and looked the only file I have is SamsungCamera.apk. Now showing any .API or .odex files?

If you're on a deodexed rom, then you won't have those files. Just reboot after dropping the apk in there, make sure your permissions are correct, and you'll be good to go.

What are the correct permissions? I tried flashing the zip through CWM but no go. I'm on a deodexed Rom also tried dropping the Samungcamera.apk file into system/app...
Thanks

I hear there was a camera mod that made shooting videos a much higher quality but it only worked for the international version of the GSlll. Perhaps doing it for this would be possible at a later date?

I am actually working on the higher bit-rates also. I have a few versions right now, in testing, the only issue I am running into right now is that when you use the power button for the shutter, it also triggers the power menu. It still takes the picture and all, but its an annoyance.

Has the video recorder always had that click-click sound whenever the ringer volume is on?? That's really annoying. I thought shutter sound in the camera controlled both.

CWM and TWRP installs are interchangeable in most, if not all cases. Definitely when you're talking about a simple script like this one.

I saw that the codename android ROM (i know the its a different ROM build but maybe he has some ideas) has a the power button as the shutter already. Maybe you can ask the OP if he could advise you on the issue you are having.
Here is the link to the ROM.

[Fix] MMS Compression

Request from this thread fulfilled.
Here is a deodexed apk with a 2MB allowance. I haven't had any compression issues since. Replace your LGUSMms.apk in system/app with this one, fix permissions, reboot. Any problems let me know.
edit: 5MB with 5MP added, though keep in mind that carriers still have their own restrictions. If you really try to send a file that big, your receiver may not get it.

Can I or you tear it apart to make it 5mb? Thanks also.

Absolutely. Just have to take an extra step and rename the matching odex file to LGUSMms.odex.bak, or simply delete it.

What should the permissions be? Also, if I delete the odex file, will it write a new one on boot?
Edit: When I placed your file into the system/app folder, phone rebooted before I could do anything with the permissions or odex file. All seems fine, but still would like to have the above answered.

rw-r-r. Nope.

I have a quick question, I did the 5mb apk. I went to send a 3.97mb pic to a friend and when it sent it was only 262kb. Is this because of the parameters of the attachment?

That's because the dimensions of the picture to be sent have not been changed, to send a higher resolution picture they would need to be changed to 2580x2048 for 5mp (which personally is a great size right around 1mb, and for 13mp it would need to be 4208x3120 (which is huge). Would be nice to have the dimensions changed for a greater resolution MMS.

I just noticed that when I am in the messenger app, when I go to insert smiley and go to the heart smiley it is all messed up.
It shows it as &It;3 instead of the <3. Weird.

If you're talking about Facebook Meesenger, you have to disable SMS/MMS messages go to FB Msg app/settings/SMS/MMS and uncheck both boxes.

No, it's not compatible with RootBox, because RootBox doesn't use the LG MMS app.

Camera mods (Unlimited recording)

MUST BE ROOTED WITH FREEZAS ROOT
CHANGELOG
V1 (Aug 25)- Allows for recording up until you run out of space instead of putting a time limit on everything
backup the entire folder system/priv-app/samsungcamera6 , delete the apk, then copy this over to system/priv-app/Samsungcamera6
Download at bottom of this post
After that set the permissions (id recommend checking the original apks permissions before u delete it)
Reboot, (see if the app even shows up), then try recording 4k, it's around 21 minute record time with stock internal storage, with the 256GB sdcard it should be much more
