Hi! I mod google edition camera for s iii mini to saving photos/videos to memory card. There isn't option in menu, it saves files automatically to memory card. It looks, that it works just good, but need more tests
Bug:
- can't access gallery directly from camera app (it will open, but it will not show any pictures)
Download and flash in CWM.
Code:

Also maybe do you know how to mute the camera?

I try to mute camera sound by editing apk, but without success. But for this exist really easy solution. With some file explorer navigate to system/media/audio/ui, locate "Cam_Start.ogg", "Cam_Stop.ogg" and "Shutter.ogg" files and rename they or delete. This will permanently mute some camera sounds.

There is an Xposed module to save photos/vids on external SD card, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2408880&highlight=xposed. You can also access gallery directly from the GE Camera.
It works! :cyclops: :highfive:

Yes, that mod is working great.
I've been going nuts on the latest CM11 nightly 4.4.2 with the camera not being able to save its pictures to your sd card automatically and also multiple crashes...some fixes I found, writing new permissions mostly just didn't work or wouldn't stick if you rebooted.
I now have 2 different optional APK file and INSTALL fixes...1st is just the camera apk which I ripped out of the liquidsmooth cm based kitkat 4.4.2 which works flawlessly. The 2nd is a gallery apk fix that I ripped out of the slimbean 4.3.1 rom and it reinstalls the gallery apk which also has its own camera that will install along with it...both fixes work, both camera's are slightly different from each other though and function differently based on the gallery that is installed
This method requires Titanium Backup...you can get it on the play store and the free version will work just fine
HERE'S THE CAMERA APK FIX:
-backup your systems "camera" app before doing anything! don't blame me for losing the camera if something fails
-once backed up, uninstall the camera app and if using titanium backup, move the backup files to another location out of the titanium folder located in your INTERNAL storage
-download the camera zip files I made here
-extract the zip file and you'll get a folder named "camera files"...copy and paste the files inside, do not extract any of these files, to your titanium backup folder located on your INTERNAL storage
-once copied over, open up titanium backup and look for the camera apk file with a line through it and should say beneath it "1 backup"...click on it, hit restore and choose app and data, that's it! it should now be there and fully functioning
HERE'S THE GALLERY APK FIX:
-backup your systems "gallery" and "camera" apps before doing anything! I won't be held responsible if this doesn't work for some users
-once backed up, uninstall the gallery and camera apps
-download the "com.android.gallery3d_1.1.40012.apk" file I made here
-install the apk file by simply clicking on it and choosing install, it shouldn't need any special permissions but if so, refer to next step
-install the gallery apk by using a root file manager (I use root browser lite) and move the apk file to system>app, change the permissions to rw-r--r-- then select "ok" and then install it and reboot. after reboot, you should now have your gallery back and a newer camera icon that is darker gray in color with a dark blue center camera lense, open the camera app
-go to it's settings>more settings and to the right you'll now see an sd card icon, click and select the sd card and test it out!! that's it
video of using root browser lite to change permissions...in the video, it's a silent screen recorded guideline, my app was already installed, so I highlighted the options that show how to change the permissions and then when I highlighted showing "cancel/view/uninstall", if it wasn't installed the option would say "cancel/view/install"

*Newly added!!*--reinstalling sprint zone and voicemail
to install, follow the exact same steps as installing the camera/gallery apk files
-voicemail apk link: com.coremobility.app.vnotes
-sprint zone apk link: com.sprint.zone_4.6.017
if this worked for you, please post up and let us all know
giving this thread a bump...i revised the apk installation steps since redoing this process after a few updates of cm11, they fixed the camera as far as adding the option for sdcard storage but I've been getting a lot of hang ups and crashes then "unable to retrieve camera" error messages when trying to open back up, even after a reboot.
I even installed today's release of the cm11 nightly and the camera was a crashing mess over and over, so for any having these camera issues, here you go!
im wondering if i will ever be able to use the sprint voicemail. since i loaded carbon 4.4.2 and wondeing if there was any way of making it easy to make a call from your messaging by just sliding either right or left instead of tapping?

yes you can! I have done this already, I installed the voicemail and sprint zone apps on my cyanogenmod 11 4.4.2 and they work...I'll make apk's for them as well and post them up, give me a few
edit...all uploaded for you my man, just do exactly the same as I noted doing for the gallery app installation, where to place it and changing the permissions, any issues post back up
Just wanted to say, tried most if not all AOSP roms and for some reason all of them freeze when switching back and forth. This is the only one that works 100%.
Thanks for the find.

Just a heads up, the stock camera in slimkat (4.4.2 ROM) works perfectly, the devs fixed it on that rom

awesome, this camera apk I have listed here is from the slimbean 4.3.1 rom which is probably why it works perfectly on 4.4.2 slimkat, same devs
thanks working on att gs3 on metropcs running unnofficial Beanstalk 4.4.2 rom 20140206 release... fix "cant connect to camera" error. Thanks again
Thanks so much! I first created a backup. I used root explorer for the whole thing. I tried uninstalling via TiBu first, but it didn't actually remove the camera and gallery apks. I then tried ES File Explorer, but that requires you to set root to Apps and ADB, and I had deselected ADB some time ago.. I downloaded the apk and copied it to /system/app. I then manually deleted the two apks, changed permissions on your apk and installed. Rebooted and works wonders. Thanks!
I would like to suggest a n00b-oriented, step-by-step guide.
1. Use your favorite recovery manager and back everything up. This way, you can always go back if you mess something up.
2. Download and install Root File Explorer (Free).
3. Launch Root File Explorer. It will ask to download and install a few tools. Let it.
4. Go to where you downloaded the file (probably sdcard/Download). Hold your finger on the name and select copy.
5. Press the "Home" icon on the bottom left of the screen.
6. Click on the folder named "system" and then click on the folder named "app".
7. Select paste to copy the file here.
8. Press and hold the newly copied file, and select "Permissions".
9. Set the permission to rw-r--r--, or 0644. In other words, select "Read" for all three, and then select "Write" for Owner. Everything else should be unchecked, and hit OK.
10. Scroll down and fine GoogleGallery.apk and GoogleCamera.apk. Select GoogleGallery.apk and press uninstall. Then long press the apk and delete it. Do the same for GoogleCamera.apk.
11. Find the new apk that you just downloaded (com.android.gallery3d_1.1.40012.apk) and press it. Select install.
12. Once installed, back out of everything and reboot your device. When the device reboots it will say it is updating 1 application.
13. You are now rebooted with the new, fixed, camera. The icon is now darker, and with a blueish/purpleish lens.
14. No, none of your files have been deleted. Enjoy your working camera!
15. Check out the new options! In the extended settings, you can now click on the SD card icon and instantly select to use your internal storage or your external SD card (if present) to save your photos to!
16.Give goku2778 your Thanks!

Found this out last night, the camera that comes with the Gummy Nightly (AT&T Galaxy S3 Android Development forum) comes with a camera that has more settings and the shutter sound can be disabled via the android system settings/sound options. I don't know if the shutter sound option is always there in system settings as I didn't check the previous roms.

the other camera I listed does have more options to it if you wanna give it a try, can't hurt none, actually let me try it on mine right now see about the shutter sound....
nope, shutter stays on, it just gives the option to make the power button shutter (take the pic)...sorry man, I could care less about the shutter sound myself lol if I come across another 1 i'll bump this again, maybe I can find that gummy camera apk online and test it out

Thank you, I'll have to try it out. I have verified that the Shutter Sound option (under System Settings/Sound) is not available in another rom (Liquid Smooth) so it looks like the developer has to manually add the option (not built in to the camera). And Liquid Smooth's camera settings are detailed.

been wanting to try that rom out myself, maybe I'll install that today and check out the camera...and then, rip it out also lol I'll bump the thread again if I do that
edit...so I've been to liquidsmooth and back lol same exact camera as the 1 I added yesterday, only differences is the system settings with more options like disabling the shutter sound. so I guess just stay on that rom for now for the shutter options, I tried lol
Trying to do this fix on beanstalk on my galaxy s3, and when I try to install, I'm getting a parsing error. Any idea when I'm doing wrong?
I've backed up and uninstalled my original camera app, and moved the first linked camera app into my system/app folder. Changed the permissions to rwrr,and then when I try to install I get the parsing error.

weird...try this then, delete that out of the system folder, download it again and just open it and hit install, see what happens then...is this beanstalk 4.3 or 4.4? if it fails again, try the 2nd optional fix, that has been the more all around solid fix so far for both 4.3 and 4.4 roms

Hi All,
Apologies for the novella below but I wanted to be as through as possible.
Been having a few problems with my M8 & I was wondering if any of you had some helpful tips.
At the moment I'm running a One M8 on 5.01 with stock Sense, Rooted with SuperSU installed & Xposed Framework & Xtended settings for tweaks & whatnot.
I'm trying to add a custom Unlock sound & having some real problems & I'm not too sure where they lie. I was hoping someone has had a similar issue.
There is a feature in Xtended Settings that allows you to modify your Lock/Unlock sound but it only allows you to select one of the stock Ringtones, Notifications or Alarms.
My plan was to just add the sound to the same location as the stock notifications however when I use any file manager with Root access to transfer the tone it will copy, show up in the Notification sound menu of the stock settings but will make no sound when its selected & will not appear in the tone list in Xtended Settings.
If I then navigate back to the Notification tone folder my custom tone will not appear, if I try to transfer the tone again it will cause my phone to hang & then reboot... It seems to me that its a problem with my phone not having access to modify files on the root of the device but surely that can't be the case due to the the modules installed requiring Root access... although I may be wrong as Windows is more of my strong point than Android.
Any help would be much appreciated folks.
Let me know if you need any more info.
Thanks :highfive:

This happens with my Nokia X too and I can't able to play
a video of Res 320*240 and can't able to change wallpaper.
I should suggest you to flash your stock ROM cause there is no
stable ROM available for nokia x or build your own custom rom by learning android

Hi there,
For the benefit of increased privacy, how can I modify the permissions (such as microphone, camera, body sensor access) for system apps, like System UI or Accessibility etc?
I wish to have access to such permissions to choose what I feel is required/necessary.
My phone (G985F) is rooted with Magisk and I have already removed/frozen a bunch of bloatware but like I mentioned would like to revoke some permissions for 'system apps'.
Please can someone assist me or point me in the right direction, thanks heaps.
Andy.

Thanks for your reply. I think you may have misunderstood what I'm asking here, while what you've shared is relating to modifying app permissions installed on the phone, it does not allow modification of 'system app' permissions as I stated I'm trying to do in my post. Currently, upon attempting to do this for say System UI (a system app/service) for example - I am unable to revoke microphone permissions due to it being greyed out and saying "Device needs this permission to operate".

Its probably because those permissions are a must for the phone to operate. Somethings are just needed to make a device work.

Theres also CCSWE app manager which also has the ability to disable system apps and i think individual processes within the app, if you know exactly what your looking for.
