Camera.apk and Video.apk - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys can any of you pull out camera.apk and video.apk from your ROM.. i would just like to try it if its going to work with MIUI. thanks!

It won't work. That is, if you're trying to get the ones from the Samsung roms. They hook deeply into the touchwiz ui, and therefore won't work. (Not even sure I'd they'll install, let alone show up in your app drawer).

I just noticed that you were also the OP to the other thread I replied to. Just a word of caution, try to post everything on 1 thread. The mods may not like all these different threads.
Anyway, check out my response to your rooting issue thread.
EDIT: Forgot to answer your question on this one LOL. I would reflash your ROM.

He is using 2.1 so he can't clear the cache. He would have to use root explorer, remove vending.apk from /system/app, reboot then reinstall the market.
@shahkam I was doing some test on updating the market on 2.1 but things didn't work out. If you want to stay with 2.1 the only thing I can suggest is use erickwill's custom 2.1 which already has tweaks but it's based on the stock 2.1 rom.

Yeah anyways i go back to 2.2 and i tried his rom also and got.same market issue it is because of the new market :/

Interesting...are you having trouble browsing the web using 3g/2g???
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Being blocked maybe?!
This doesn't seem an error on your rom, this seems more likely that something is blocking your download.
Not sure if this is your case scenario but i can't download any apk and others from my university.
If you are inside some company network, or something like that this most likely is the reasons.
When the download shows on the top it means your rom is trying to download, but the server may have been blocked, so it will keep trying for a long time, also may give you some small lag during that.
If you can download apk files from other sources it means that they may have blocked only using domain filter or ip filtering.
To be able to access the market doesn't mean that the server isn't blocked, only means that the main domain isn't blocked, i don't which is the server for market downloads so i can't tell you how to check this, but the best way would be to get try multiple wifi hotspots or a home totally not firewalled connection.
If it downloads but doesnt install try unmounting your SD card and download, try again and see what happens.

Best camera flashes?

In my first post I posted when I joined this website I asked about a camera app for cm7 that was like the stock vibrant camera app. I now want to know, after some info given to me in that post, what are the best camera apps that can be flashed, by rom manager or odin, and are compatible with cm7 that closely resemble or are nicer looking than the stock 2.1 camera. I think my biggets thing is just that the 2.1 cam looks like it takes the whole phones screen rather than cm7 which has a black line at the bottom which makes the camera look smaller. Again any and all help welcome and thanks in advance
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Actually you could really just take any 3rd party camera app and push the .apk to the directory of system/app/ with root explorer. The app will then become a system app. You don't neccesarily have to flash it via Odin or CWR.
Sent from my SGH-T959 (Samsung Vibrant)
Ok thanks so my new question is if I was to rip the camera.apk app with root explorer and replace it in cm7 would I keep the 2.1 camera? I know you can do it to remove or add apks to roms but I didnt know if the firmware versions would be an issue (ex 2.1 cam on 2.3.7)
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Although it should work, I'm not 100% as I've never tried it. So make sure you're play it safe and do a backup... I would suggest you do a backup in CWR (or a Nandroid Backup) just in case as you can never be to safe. Plus I wouldn't delete the 2.1 camera.apk, just move it to another location like to your sd card. This way if the CM7 camera doesn't work you can just switch it back with the original one.
Ok thanks for the info im actually gonna try it sometime today ill be sure to post if it works or not

Alright, hope everything works out for you.
Well flashing the apk from 2.1 on cm7 or the miui rom(forgot which one) didnt work I liked the miui one but it didnt have an app drawer and the controls were a little bit weird but I like some of the stuff. I guess the mods can close this now I figure I cant flash the old camera anyone who reads this and finds out how to do please pm me. Thanks for the help you guys

[MOD] Contacts.apk (Yellow Pages REMOVED)

Here is a modified stock AT&T Contacts.apk file without the permanent Yellow Pages contact at the top. The is for rooted users only.
Replace the Contacts.apk in /system/app using Root Explorer. Change it's permissions to RW-R--R--. Reboot!
WARNING: Do not use this for any custom ROMs, only for use on a stock AT&T ROM! Also, remember to make backups...
Funny, I never even noticed the YP thingy on the top of my contacts till now. How lame. When I clicked on it, I got a force close. I must have already frozen whatever that button links to...
Thanks, maybe that apk can be swapped out for the stock one in our custom rom(s)...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk
Awesome work!! This is verified working.
Niceeeee. Like to see dev work like this. Great work. This should maybe be in the themes and apps section though. Not a criticism.
How obnoxious of them to stick that YP in the contacts ?
Thanks, I tried posting in dev but it said not enough posts . I remove the yp app and mine force closed also when clicking the contact. It's crazy how much bloat ware came on this thing. I'd like to see a stock Samsung contacts.apk to see what else they hacked up
So just did this and now Contacts is missing from my app drawer and it wont launch from my launcher tray......... and I cant make calls the phone shortcut is gone.....
You need to restart the phone...

I've rebooted multiple times. I tried again same deal not sure what the issue is. I'm on TPC's v2 ROM not sure if that would cause any issue.

I have it, PM me you email addy I'll mail it over to you. I would upload it but I'm at work right now.
I haven't tested this on any of the custom ROMs, only the stock AT&T ROM. I'm not sure what they did with their Contacts.apk file. If you upload the one from your ROM, I can see if I can make the same mods that I did to the AT&T one.
Didn't work for me either, and also copied it over stock apk and don't have a backup. Using TPC V2 ROM. Any one have stock Contacts.apk for that rom?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk
Using Go Contacts EX from the market for now. It's a little much, but works for good as a replacement for stock.
Looked over in the dev section- will probably be flashing a new ROM soon anyway

Idea for MultiWindow

Hi guys,
This just ocurred to me. I was reading that the korean jb has multiwindow and that its hardware is very similar to our notes. Both use a snapdragon S3 and the adreno 220. Can it be posible to port? I was just trying to port multiwindow into my own and I was able to make flashbar appear, get the toggle in settings. When you open the first app it opens like normal, now the second you see that it has the little box to divide the screen, but it opens the second app in full. But you'll see a bar in the middle that is the divider for multiwindow. I don't know something im missing or something. Will post pics later So you can see what im talking about.
I'm drooling with anticipation. ..I hope you figure it out!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
This is as far as I have. I have modified the following
SecSettings.apk to add the multiwindow option
android.policy.jar
services.jar (I saw multiwindow smali inside so I did not modify any of it)
Added:
FlashBarService.apk (Taken from the N7000)
multiwindow.jar
com.sec.android.app.multiwindow.xml
com.sec.feature.flashbar.xml
com.sec.feature.multiwindow.phone.xml
com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml
I dont know if I'm missing other things to get it fully working. Im just learning.

No. It's like I opened the app in full, but I see the divider.
Maybe the apps themselves are tide into the multi window app. Have you installed the browser from the Korean note and tried it like that?

I believe lildoggs may be somewhere in the general direction. I've been reading threads from the n7000 and note 2 threads about modding apps to be capable with multiwindow, if they aren't already supported. So if you can install the browser and maybe messenger app from the korean note, and they work that would be great. If not maybe try this tutorial from this thread to modify a few apps yourself and see if it works.
also check out this multi window manager app from the playstore if indeed you did get it working to maybe mod an app. I'm not dev, but just throwing out some things I think may be of some use to you.
I'm currently at work but will try them when I get home. Like I mentioned before from my research I see that we already have the smali files for multiwindow inside services.jar. Maybe we need the apps to be compatible.
Good luck man.

Some guys over on the Note2 have found that there is a module for exposed called all apps it looks like that allows any app to be used with the multi window.

Flashable KitKat Apps

Included in this zip are the APKs and needed libs for all of the currently working KitKat Apps. I have only tested this on the Google Experience ROM, but should work for any AOSP based ROM. YMMV with touchwiz, but feel free to make a backup and give it a shot.
-CalendarGoogle.apk
-Chrome.apk
-DeskClockGoogle.apk
-EmailGoogle.apk
-Exchange2Google.apk
-GalleryGoogle.apk
-Gmail2.apk
-GoogleCamera.apk
-GoogleHome.apk
-Hangouts.apk
-Keep.apk
-LatinImeGoogle.apk
-Maps.apk
-PrebuiltGmsCore.apk
-Street.apk
-Velvet.apk
For Email and Clock, you may need to clear their data after flashing this.
As usual, I am not responsible for anything this may do to your device. Make a backup.

I like the launcher. Haven't played with much else yet.
Edit:
I was surprised as well. That's why I threw a zip together.
I'm using all of them. Can't really tell much of a difference with most. Very subtle changes. Pull to refresh in email, and its more like the gmail app in design. Clock has a better way of sewtting the alarm and the font looks cleaner. Google now is improved. Thats about it as far as I can tell.
I do like the launcher though.
Edit: double post
Is GoogleGallery working 100%, last time I check it was FC when trying to edit a picture, also is there any real difference in the Camera?
Thanks.

Gallery will still FC trying to edit, and the camera icon is different, but thats all I can tell. I dont use the camera much. Photosphere is kinda cool, but I think thats in the old camera as well.
Hows the battery drain with the new launcher? I'm assuming with google now always running (or is it not?) it can be a drainer.
Hasn't been any worse for me. Technically, its always running all the time anyway even in the old system.
Not too impressed with the launcher, using some of the apk's though
The link is not working. Thank you anyway.

You can extract them and install almost all of them one by one. I think maps and clock are the only ones that wont over right whats currently there. I had to delete them before I could get them to install properly without just pushing the APK over the current version with ADB.
Also, Some apps wont work properly without the libs. You'll need to be rooted to push the libs to /system/lib/
Are all camera functions working?
Anyone know if the camera app is 100% working? Photosphere, etc? I tried another 4.4 camera apk, but it FC all the time.

That's because you didn't have the lib files. Its working perfectly for me.
