Hi
Tried out a lot of those Google Camera Apps lately. While some of them are pretty nice, I would still prefer to use the LG-camera-app, especially since it's the only one with 4K60p, HDR-video, etc.
However the overly aggressive noise reduction and sharpening (and this aquarell kind of filter) destroy a lot of otherwise good pictures.
I saw in one of the GCam Mods you can actually choose between different libraries.
The settings for the JPG- and video-processing are saved in those.
Would it be possible to add the same option to the LG-camera-app?
Or maybe not even an option, but just the app not using the standard-libraries (located I believe in /system/vendor/lib/camera/).
Currently you would need root to replace those files.
Of course someone would still need to edit those files properly.
Projects like that were already done for other phones. Most of the time though they're talking about "chromatix" libs, which I couldn't find on the G7.
However the libs in /system/vendor/lib/camera/ have similar names. Maybe they were just moved there by LG.
I wish I could do that myself, but so far, I didn't even manage to fully decompile the LG Camera App apk, which someone posted here.
(I have also almost no knowledge in Java, let alone C++ libraries. )
Good idea! I Hope someone Can do It!
Bring back the LG V10 camera and that would do it! V10 vs G7 camera below check on computer to see the real difference in details. WTF happened LG.

I decompiled the camera apk the other day with java show and I tried to search and understand the code but I wasn't able to understand (it was my first decompiled code and I am only in 2n of IT). So maybe someone with more experience could see the code and change the value of the image processing and noise reduction.
APKTool is supposed to be ther best tool for decompiling.
However it gave me an error-message of missing frameworks.
Reading on its site, I need to install the LG-Frameworks, which are on the G7.
But I am not sure, which exact files and where to find them. :/
defcomg made a tweaked lib that lowered noise reduction for the G4 in the past. Maybe we can port it...?
It would probably be easier to just edit the LG G7 libs to turn down the undesired effects.
However this solution only works with root or a modded app, which can use libraries not being in the specific root-folder.
(And as far as I understood, with root you don't get OTA Updates anymore, right?)
Any progress on this? Could someone make a tutorial on how to modify libs?

I've just started breaking open some apks and playing around with the idea of changing some elements I don't like but I don't know if it'll ever be much more than that right now. It's mainly the Advanced Launcher I've been poking around in and blueifying (yes it's a word, shush!) I used the Eclair theme that's around here but anyway less chat, more pics... all three of them >_> Gotta start somewhere, right?
First thing I changed - the app drawer handle

Deleting icons now becomes a game...
I tend to lose interest quite fast in doing things but this is kinda therapeutic. If someone out there could tell me how to go about testing themes on an Android VM it would speed things up a lot considering I only have one G1 and it makes it painfully slow to test things. I'm gonna go hunt around for the information anyway but if anyone wants to point me in the right direction I won't complain
A quick way to test things now would be to use the new MetaMorph. You can test most things without flashing.
why would you flash the whole thing? up to now, you've only changed Launcher (I'm ignoring all the other icons you changed on purpose), so all you'd have to do is, after you modified your pngs (and put them back in the apk) just "adb push Launcher.apk /system/app", it will automatically overwrite the old launcher (killing the process first) and then load up the new one with the changes (don't re-sign it, don't listen to people, makes things worse)

I haven't been flashing the whole thing, only the themed files such as the launcher. I did try using "adb push" but for some files I tried it on earlier it lead to big problems with gapps FC and loss of all wireless service. Thanks for the heads up on MetaMorph. I found how to run different ROMs in an emulator but I'd have to throw on a Linux install for that so MetaMorph will help avoid that.
I'm looking to build an flashlight app with the LED flash. I know this has been done before, but I'm planning on making the most basic, Metro-style app possible, with really well fitting icon and interface. All the other apps out there that do this are ugly or have ugly interfaces. I'm planning on putting it out for free on here, and if Microsoft accepts it, on the Marketplace.
Only problem is, I'm not sure how to active the LED flash. According to this post, it's something to do with this:
Code:
ID_CAP_CAMERA
. So how do I use that to activate the flash? Having trouble figuring it out.
Thanks.
Please post in correct section.
Firstly this is a question
Second, its about software development.
Moved to WP7 Software Development
I know it is in the undocumented Mango APIs somewhere under System.Reflection. Somehow you capture video without really saving it (with the flash setting on).
Anyone have any more insight into this? I dont really care for any on the market they all have too much "extra" crap or terrible looking icons so I just figure I'll make what I want myself but I too need to know how to get the constant on LED. Anyone care to help?

It was discussed here a long time ago (should be in archives, available with forum search) but also take a look to the Dave's article and app http://www.daveamenta.com/2011-01/led-flashlight-for-windows-phone-7/
So, the key points are:
- you should delete recorded videos by yourself;
- to bypass marketplace validation, you should use Microsoft.Phone.Media.Extended assembly with dynamical load and dynamic function references.

Trying to get rid of that damn autofucus camera sound.
I've deleted the five .ogg files on the folder /system/media/audio/ui/:
Cam_Stop.ogg
Cam_Start.ogg
camera_click_short.ogg
Shutter_01.ogg
VideoRecord.ogg
Then:
Created file: "local.prop" with value of
ro.camera.sound.forced=0
copied it to /data
Rebooted
and STILL get that flippin autofocus sound!
Anyone have any ideas?
Currently running Stock rooted FE10 (via sfhub) with plus kernel.
Calks ICS v1.5 has the camera sounds removed. Download the rom and check the zip what's been removed maybe. I know Calk's roms are as close to stock as possible with multiple tweaks and fixes to make them more efficient which is why I stick by them. If you just want me to rip the camera out and make it flashable, let me know.
I'll pull his camera apk and push that and see what happens, thanks.

Here's something that looks like it will work for you too:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1556480
I checked one of the flashable zips and its not just the camera.apk but also a media file that it replaces also.
There should of been a camera_focus.ogg.

Due to the law in certain areas, some of the camera sounds are now locked in the actual .apk file.
Either learn how to edit this yourself and remove the sounds, d/l a rom with it already edited and replace yours or get an aftermarket cam.
I opted for the first one. It really isn't that hard to learn to do.
Camera360, Angel Cam Dx and numerous other cam apps have options to mute. Camera360 is one I really like and its free on the play store.

Got it done with the apk mod. Those laws were enacted by moronic lawmakers, who don't understand technology, under pressure from more fearful people, because of the low life creepers doing 'upskirts' and other weird sh$t. You know protect the kids etc..
But having your camera zip, zoom and wiz at a recital makes you look and sound like an ass. And could cause a parent to get his ass kicked for making noice while another's is on stage. ;p
Hi,
The cardboard still works on games which have their native implementation of side-by side graphics. It also worked on apps which were using cardboard v1 sdk. The cardboard template I used to make mine was http://pcpress.rs/download/MojAndroid/print_yourself.pdf
Now, in cardboard v2 apps, the left and right images are way apart from each other, so, its impossible for human eyes to focus.
Here is a screenshot :

}
So, is there any way to make cardboard apps work on this device?
an update, I experimented with https://www.google.com/get/cardboard/viewerprofilegenerator/ and this is what i came up best with:
Its a bit blurry/pixelated, but the ppi of our phone is way too low for stuffs like vr. Might not work for your eyes and lens.

Thanku soo much that worked well till now i was using a custom viewer profile made for one plus u can find it in the link below .... that also solved the issue of double vision but still its little blurry i guess its the matter of ppi proper setting of ppi may solve the issue i am not able to create a custom viewer profile so it will be really helpful if someone finds the fix..... thanx again

Hi guys...
Had this working fine before and now it's screwie..
Gear VR works fine.
Google Cardboard when starting , has the inter-lense adjusted to far apart. The two images are seperated to much.
Is there a way to start from scratch (by deleting some config files?)
The left and right displayed image need to come together / closer.
Ive deleted cache/data for Cardboard and uninstalled / reinstalled
Anyone have any ideas ?
First day on new Samsung Galaxy S21 FE phone. After some hours, I noticed that I don't have a search features in Settings anymore. It was there as expected on Android, but now it simply disappears. Any idea what can change this behavior?
Additional info - I made debloat as instructed in XDA forum for Samsung phones. Maybe there was something which could damage it?
You debloated it Dependencies...
Be very careful what you disable especially with the smaller Samsung system apps. Some are useless bloatware, but many just sit there unless needed.
In Android 10 Samsung added dozens of small system apps that preserve the UI functionality and appearance. Android 9 on the same device didn't have them but both look and behave nearly identically.
The "damage" isn't permanent. Either undo the edit(s) that caused it or a factory reset will purge all the edits and revert it to factory default settings.
Tnx.
I didn't find a solution, so I made a factory reset.
Now it works again (until my next debloat session ).
I use a package disabler and block about 80.
Some of the lists I've seen are way more than I would do. Things like that settings search feature which can be useful at times.
I poked around a bit, this is the app that provides that service.

Tnx. As I wrote, I have already made factory reset. I will be now more careful

I really appreciate you making this comment even after OP had resolved their issue. It's very helpful for future people who end up searching Google for the same issue, like I just did, haha.
I found my search function missing as well and I figured it had to have been dependent on an app I disabled, but I couldn't imagine what app. Thankfully I landed here and your comment saved me a lot of time I would have spent scouring up and down the apps list.
Funny thing is I don't remember ever even seeing the Settings Suggestions app when I was debloating. I definitely would have figured out what that was for and not disabled it. I used the app "ADB AppControl" on Windows and I did run the "Basic" (lowest level) Debloat wizard, assuming it wouldn't disable anything so essential, but I'm certain that's what must have disabled it. So there's a warning for anyone else, always be careful with one-click solutions! Hopefully this helps anyone else who ends up here on another future Google search.
