Front facing camera - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to mod my vibrant with front facing camera is there an apk. For that or does it only work on certain roms im running trigger. 3.0.1.

It works on a lot of ROMs and even if some don't support it right after flashing, you can always get the FFC apk in a recent thread. (It works on Trigger)
My problem with FFC is banding; it's beyond my tolerance.

As he said, you can activate it on every rom, just install the ffc.apk from the thread in the development forum.
But I think that trigger already have it (most of the custom roms do)

If you haven't bought a camera yet, make sure to get the newest one that doesn't have the banding problem

What's the newest one can you post a link

Sense roms

I was wondering if there are any sense roms for the vibrant, if so can you someone please direct me? I check but couldn't find any. Thank you
nope, a launcher pro sense theme, but no functioning roms. There was one a few months ago in the works but it fizzled out
That sucks. Thanks for the response.
There kinda is one, but it's still in a very alpha stage, with things then breaking constantly.

Can you give me a link if you know where one is? I can't find a good one. Thanks
flipnotiq - I found one and a launcher with similar widgets. thank you
I don't have a link, but it's at the very tail end of the galaxy sense thread in the Dec section. I haven't personally seen the thread pop up in about a well or so, but I know it's using a gb sense leak, on top of some CM7 parts and that some of the drawing features of sense don't work.
If you don't know how to debug your phone, when most common tools are useless then don't even bother with it.

Yeah I googled it and it looks like a lost cause. Guess I should have done that first. Still there are some nice roms out there for the sgs. Thanks
for anyone that comes across my inquiry this link looks like the last stand.

looks like they're working on this one again
Here's my list of things that work/dont' work:
broken:
camera
cell data
GPS
video record
radio (of course)
HTC Locations
not rooted
can't see external SD card
works:
pretty much everything else

I find this funny. There's more hope of a miracle getting us GB GPS to work than a fully functional Sense.

Yeah that sucks. I just picked the phone up yesterday, rooted it and started playing around. Not a whole lot if time reading up on these particulars. Still some nice smooth roms though and I'm glad I could amuse you.

Though I did not test it since I'm fine with the normal one for cm7.
There's no need to say anything about flaming. If you have a problem with someone that posts in reply, just report them. Stating it will just antagonize people to flame you.
im actually attempting to complete smali edits from the DHD miui rom and OMFGB to get the ffc working from the DHD MIUI camera.apk.. wondering if anyone has an easier way
i just been seeing a lot of hating lately, so much anger....
Edit: --- yeah never mind, these smali edits are gonna take me forever and a half and i partially don't know what im doing! ****, i just want FFC with it..

i9000M=Vibrant T959?

in the website " http://galnetmiui.co.uk" they have thier 1st ICS builds of MIUI
i have downloaded the i9000M rom, and took the risk and flashed it into my vibrant t959 expecting that would screw my phone actual buttons,
but the think that it's working flawlessly! been using it for 4days with no single hiccup.
the question, how did it work?
Is everything working ok? including GPS???
i'm 99% convinced this is a troll.
Agreed.....It's a troll doll!!
It's true but that isn't real ICS, they claim it is but its not.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
the only think i didn't try yet is GPS, i'll try and give a feedback.
and for whoever speaking about troll,,,, no it's not
you want some Screens? or video would be better.
i knew it's ics from SDK. but still it's amazing.

yes please, i wasn't trying to be rude but we get ALOT of trolls, you don't know how many trolls claimed they got gingerbread updates from Samsung Kies a few months ago...
You may be right, but idk, make a video please i wanna see what its like, also how is the battery - sorry for the question, but just curious haha
quick overview.
http://youtu.be/y55NfCkeEBE
batt is not the best think, i squeezed 1D 20H with minimal use.
this is the default kernel, dunno if 2.3 kernels would still work on this? since it's not fully ics.

Its not from the sdk. It is GB woth some ICS features in it. Besides, even if its real, what is the point of ics without any of the features of ICS?

that's not the issue here, my question is how the rom for i9000M worked on vibrent T959...Technically

[Q] I'm Confused.

I've been hearing a lot about my aging YP-G70 and its ICS camera fix. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to be able to play Ingress (JUST GOT MY ACCESS CODE!) but I don't want to revert to Gingerbread again. I'm still confused about the progress being made here though. JackPot apparently fixed front cam, but was this released? Also, is the choppy back cam fix released too? I just can't keep up with this anymore... THX in advance!
Love, (jk) arc

Never knew about the front camera fix. Its probably only on his own ROM as he has also got HW working on his ROM but not released it. Don't think there's a fix for the choppy back camera thing. The devs may have been secretly chatting via PM to make the back work for ICS but who knows? I've also wanted Ingress, looks great.
IDK but I saw a legit looking video with an ICS GP 5.0 INTL with a working front cam. It also had a back cm fix, but it was super choppy and didn't really work. I'll see if I can get u a Link

I'm not sure about ICS, but the CM10 nightly has the partially-working camera released.

Does that kernel also include hardware acceleration working as well?

touchwiz camera on 6.0 aosp

ive been looking around for the stock S5 (or S6 or S7) touchwiz camera apps for use in an AOSP 6.0.1 rom, but havent found anything so far. I could be blind, but any existing threads or links to the apks or how-tos would be very appreciated!!
i guess i should also say that ive tried open cam (no panorama in it) and a few other camera apps, even some paid ones, and i just rather like the the TW camera app. Of course, im rooted, have twrp 3.0.2-1 installed. The ROM im running is a build directly from the source code a friend of mine developed called Cyanide, but its an iteration of 6.0.1 (if any of that helps )

no but i did finally get my AOSP cam to stop infinitely focusing on the panoramas. The aosp cam still pales in comparison to the TW one IMO. Probably a little late in the g900p's lifespan for this. Most folks who are smart enough to do so have moved on to new phones

its for technical reasons, that samsung camera never has been ported to AOSP Roms. to get the samsung camera working the Samsung Framework is needed. But you choose AOSP to get rid off Sammy FW. so no chance to port this cam to aosp.

drat. well, thanks for the answer! it resolves the quandry and now i dont have to wait for something that will never happen. I just wish there was a TW ROM that is newer than MOAR. I LOVED MOAR, but its a bit aged now
Try snap cam hdr...
I've tried so many camera apps to find a proper alternative for the stock camera.
Snap Camera is the best i've found but it's freaking me out, that no App can film in slowmotion like the stock cam.
