Hi SGS Folks!
Have you seen how the new Sony's Cameras capture Panorama Photos by moving the Camera all the way the scene you want to capture?
Well today a beta app developed by Sony can do that in our Mobile Phones...
I've found the app in the original thread for a X10 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116055 and i've corrected the script so we can also enjoy this beauty app...
DISCLAIMER!!!
Always do a back first in case it breaks anything and i'm not responsible if anything happens to your house, your town, your country or your dog... Use it at your own risk though it doesn't mean a major threat since the propetary files go to framework without breaking recovery or something else...
Instructions:
1.- Download and flash through CWM 3+ this script:
1.1 - Download Script
The script contains two SE Propietary files needed for the app to work.
2.- Download and install the attached app named:com.sonyericsson.panorama.apk
Install the app normally through any explorer like a side load.
3.- Enjoy!
Attached you may also find a few pictures taken it really works good on daylight!
Glad my work? Buy me a Beer!
hi mate,
you can already this on the Galaxy S using default camera app. Go to the shooting mode setting and select panorama view from there.
Thanks!
I know we can do this from the Stock Camera but what about the people running on CM7? I heard that it can't be done right?
Anyway i think it's a cool app to have
And in stock camera the picture size is 640*480
Thanx for the app,
Viva Guate!
Enviado desde mi galaxy s
so using this app, i can take panorama picture with full 5Mp.?
does this work in CM7 on others phone??
ie: nexus one/ htc desire
Yes it does. Go in the Android app and games forum. I've made the files for specific phones...

You can use the camera in portrait mode, and get a quite large picture that is 640 vertical, if your hand is steady. Mine wasn't when I was testing this afternoon, and I got only 1968 by 544 (I think it throws away the strips that don't match among all the pictures - so the steadier you are, the larger the vertical number of pixels will be.
"Application not installed" when I try to install it after flashing the CWM package first. I'm on Insanity CM 17. Would love to see this work as I used the panorama mode freguently with Samsung Roms.
just google photaf .... that's much better than this one and it's not beta.
Finding this to be a great app! Easy to use and pretty intuitive.
cant get this to work...
followed the instructions on the first post but keep getting "application not installed"
CM7 nightly #47
hi
i confirm...on miui 1.9.2, after installed script with cwm, when i click on apk from estrong file explorer i got APPLICATION NOT INSTALLED
any solution?
thanks
regards
Good app, thanks man. Work is fine on F1 Sgs V6

Panorama Beta on SGH t989
Hi folks i know i don't have the same phone as you, and it's been described as "only a galaxy s2 by name" fairly often on these forums, but i'm very much a fan of this app, sony panorama. I had it on my evo 3d, and even with the built in panorama feature in the galaxy s2 phones, i feel this one works much better for uninterrupted panoramic shots, whereas the galaxy s2 feature stitches pictures together resulting in blurs where the stitching takes place and discontinuity of the image.
Anyways. i apologize for this being my first post i have actually been reading around these forums for quite some time, just never signed up for an account.
i was wondering if the file listed here for flashing could be changed to work for the SGH T989, as i have used several files meant for the 19000 such as the v6 supercharger. However, i have also tried to flash a bootanimation only to find under further research that my stock rooted rom does not have an "insecure kernel" and can't flash bootanimations and the like.
So yeah, i was basically wondering if the reason the flash did not work is the same as the bootanimation, and if there's anything you can do to help me obtain this awesome app.
SGH t989 Stock Rooted Rom
Anyone know of a way to add the stock gallery to Rootbox? I found the app but can't get it without losing my camera app. App can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34482124#
I was able to manually install it through system by changing permissions, well you know what I mean, but as stated earlier Iose my camera. Anyways, if someone knows of a work around or a similar gallery I would very much appreciate it. Thanks for your time.
idk how I got here...

Not sure if you got an answer to this already or not, but the LG gallery is separate from the LG camera, the Google gallery has the camera built in. I was trying the opposite earlier, linking the LG stock camera to the AOSP gallery, but I ran out of patience. Don't know if this helps you or not.
Just wondering if this has been done or not. My gf would love the same camera as I have on my nexus 5.
Thanks.

It's available for 4.4.2 but when one tries to download from playstore on our note II it doesn't show up,in the desktop play store it says incompatible so many of us grabbed the apk and it installs fine.Now where the problem begins is not all users are lucky depending on which 4.4.2 ROM or to be honest not really sure why get FC,but the most common reported problem is the wrench icon for settings when clicked it gives FC (not for me) ,and some of us tried various techniques to get it work i uploaded my /data/data/com.androidGoogleCamera folder on this Thread ,but didn't really help anyone when they copied pasted mine on theirs,so to sum it up i played around with google camera but at least for now it doesn't offer anything more than what our stock samsung camera app offers ,i use stock samsung and lenovo camera the most.
I have installed Paranoid Rom 4.6 BETA 1, and it was great. Now, i had a problem with some apps like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram: when i go to the upload a photo section i pick it, but when i publish it, it turns all black. If someone knows a flasheable zip to this problem, or some advice it would be so much helpful, thanks for your attention, Marco
I assume you are using a one plus one?
The fix is to change the setting in Instagram. Turn off high quality processing

I got it running and no issues with the ROM itself, I like it alot, but the whole playstore and getting aurora to work made me give up, I was not able to get my preferred playstore apps.

Solution: Uninstall Aurora and reinstall it from F-Droid.
Before I dive in, 2 questions:
- I'm still runnin the december update, do I need to update to the januari update before I can flash Calyx?
- Is there a way to backup my current install?
Edit: I bit the bullet anyways, first updating to the Januari update, painless process, btw. I decided that I didn't care about a backup.
First impressions: Very nice looking and I saw pretty quickly that within CalyxOS you can back stuff up outside of the bootloader.
Had the 'Aurora store' bug, fixed after reinstalling it.
Gonna love exploring the OS in the coming days.
I have one question about a launcher: I have the paid version of Nova Launcher, and I'm logged into Aurora anonymously, so I can't DL paid apps. Does anyone have an alternative to Nova Launcher? I absolutely love this app (the gestures etc. are a dream) so preferably a FOSS alternative with close to the same functionality would be awesome. I have been able to migrate to FOSS/free apps for all of my paid ones, but I still can't find anything better as a launcher.
Edit2: Might have been nice for them to put a warning before flashing that it will completely wipe your phone.. I made a few last minute backups on the internal storage before flashing. Everything is lost now. Luckily I back stuff up often, but I still lost stuff, so a warning from them might've been nice.
Edit3: I now can't log into my google account (for retrieving my whatsapp backup Fixed by using another phone and copying the local backup to my Pixel) because it can't connect to the server... know error apparently, but I can't find a fix for it.
Why oh, why, do I always decide to try this stuff on a sunday evening when I should go to bed...

Thanks, I'll give that one a shot.
I ran into something I didn't see for years on a smartphone: ADS!! Since root is impossible and not recommended, adaway won't work.. Any other solutions?

or the new Adaway, also with rootles mode VPN: https://github.com/AdAway/AdAway
Just got the februari update.. the most painless update I've ever had on a smartphone. Really digging CalyxOS.
About the adblockers; I already run a 'normal' VPN, so VPN based ablocking won't work, right?
Some other random questions:
Any suggestions for (preferably FOSS) keyboards? I currently use love swiftkey, but I refuse to sign up to download skins, can't seem to restore my backup, and I don't trust Microsoft. I can't seem to find a lot of open source ones.
I also have some shared calendars from google that I unfortunately need to use, but I don't want to sign in to google on my phone. Any tips to get this to work? I can import regular google calendars into my nextcloud, but not the shared ones.

About the adblockers with VPN - you can utilize "Secure DNS" option in Android. I highly recommend NextDNS or BlahDNS for no-logging, adblocking DNS service.
As for the keyboards, there are AnysoftKeyboard (has swipe), OpenBoard and FlorisBoard. I am using Anysoftkeyboard and I am pretty happy. I'm beta testing it, and new version should be out soon. Also, Calyx has a firewall feature that allows you to block internet access for any app you want. Just go to the Settings -> Apps and then Data Usage and you can block Swiftkey from there. Calyx Team is currently working on a better UI for firewall, should be out in the following months.

I'm liking Anysoftkeyboard so far. I only wish you could remove the smilie and voice buttons, that would make the spacebar a bit wider.
Will the scureDNS stuff work nicely with a VPN, since they use their own ones, AFAIK. I got it to work, just wondering if it doen't mess with the security of the VPN.

You can delete the smiley button. Look in "bottom" layouts, and pick minimal or classic

I love using Anysoft Keyboard
I just tried calyxos first time it today myself for 8 hours today. It ha sbeen very nice so far, although most of that 8 hours went in to setting everything up.
Soemthing I hate is that the google camera apk from aurora store is super old.. Ibut that is not calyxos fault.. Probably not that the small arrow to lower the keyboard is ont he left side and doesnt seem to be adjustable either..?
Will have to look around for some safe place to download a more recent gcam or I guess use some port.. Too bad I heard the ports are always buggy and bad and since I got a true pixel for the first time ever I was looking forward to run it with the best possible camera software.

I am using GCam 7.3.018 by Urnyx05 since few weeks and it is all good... If I remember well, I got it here https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-urnyx05/
I don't know if the version 8 does the job on this device, I did not try but am interested to hear back if you try

I went ahead and installed the latest official Google camera software from apkmirror. I didnt want to go through the rabbithole of finding what port is the least broken, while also getting the latest and greatest update wise..
Altough now that I've used it for a few days im suspecting I don't have HDR. I cant find any options with HDR anywhere in the app, so maybe something wrong as I heard that if you run googles own gcam on custom roms (I guess calyxos as well?) You loose HDR?
Also its quite annoying that you have to use Google photos to o preview the pictures and I don't want to use that.

I can just say that downloading the version 8.1 linked in the thread I referred to in my previous post should make you happy... I just tried it and all seems to be working without any hassle. And it does not look like leading you to a rabbithole.

I guess that is why people are porting the app. I have working HDR (at least the option is here and can be switched, how to make sure that hdr is ok btw?) and I can check the photos with the alternative gallery apps, or at least with the default gallery. There is an option in GCam to allow using gallery other that Google Photo.
May I ask why Google photo is a problem? Looks like you can block all privacy-concerning behaviors...
Then, more generally, I am running CalyxOS with default microG settings on this device since two weeks and everything is just perfect. All is working perfectly and the battery consumtion is really good.
Great job! Perfect ROM for me on this device.

Exciting! I just went ahead and downloaded the gcam mod you linked to, latest version.
I was already quite happy with the camera just moving from a xiaomi Mi 8 with lineage - using the f-droid open camera only.. Totally worthless experience imo..
At first glance there is definetly more options here including HDR. However the third party picture viewer is still not optional..
Honestly you are right I could use google photos and just remove internet access but I would rather not.. But if Im forced I guess I must.. Did you do anything special to get third party gallerys to work?
About the calyxos on pixel 4a 5g .. I absolutely LOOOOVE it man.. It is lightyears ahead of lineage experience that Ive had past 2 years. Love it!
