Hey everyone
I was wondering if anyone could help me, every time I open the resident in camera app it crashes and if on the rare occasions it does work it is very unresponsive
Thank you
Mark
Use 'Camera ICS' from the market. Much better UI and it doesnt crash.
If i helped you, click the thanks button!
i am already running ICS
thanks

He means install the Camera ICS application.
cheers guys that app works awesomely but i have another problem now, the front facing camera is really really dark
thanks
Ah well, i noticed that problem while using skype. But, so far as i know, no solution. I have to sit infront of a very bright light, like a high power table lamp for it to work.

Here's a small .zip file that will remap your search button to open Camera.apk
Flash the .zip in recovery. There is also a .zip to revert to stock as well. Enjoy!
Sweet, thanks. That's gonna make life a lot easier!
From a rooted I-500 with XDA
Works perfectly
Its working most of the time but sometimes the camera comes up but its just a black screen and sometimes it says Camera failed. All in all it works most of the time. Nice work!
great find thatdudebutch! I see that the concept behind it is pretty flexible, have you tried running any other programs with the softkeys?

Yeah I just tried it about twenty times in a row and no blank screen. Wonder what the deal is? Camera in fact opens quicker remapped to search IMO.

I get the camera failed error/black screen about every other time I start hit search, kind of causes a momentary phone freeze. Thanks for your work on this though, its an awesome idea.

its weird man, ive been pressing it all day and it loads every time, sorry maybe if you got a second some time you can connect phone to adb and run a logcat while hitting the button so we can see what the problem is

Hi guys, i`ve installed the CM 9 last week and this is working fine, but wen i take a picture my camera doeseng get automatically focus, i have to touch the screen on the place i wat to focus before taking pictures....is there any configuration where i can put my automatic focus back?
This is important to me because i use my camere alot, and touching the screen is a little annoying.
Other problem is the panoramic camera that doesen`t work, i have the image on my screen, but when i start taking the picture it says I`m very fast, and then whe i get slow my picture is very, very short.
I would be very thankfull about some help.

I didnt find anything about this on the forum.....
Hi,
I have created a new app for the Xperia U, that will give you "disco lights" in the illumination bar.
Now also works for Xperia P.
So far it only has a few modes. It does both plain blinks and also blinks that are driven by the music you play.
Pro version has more colors and can run in the background.
It only works on Xperia U or Xperia P, and it also requires ROOT to get individual access to the LEDs.
On anything but a rooted XU or rooted XP i'm sure it will do absolutely nothing...
It's called U-Disco and you can find it at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rundgong.udisco
Pro version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rundgong.udiscopro
Try it out and let me know what you think.
If you have suggestions for fun blink patterns, let me know and I'll try to include it in upcoming releases.
Hi,
I have tested the application and what I think is great! But I wish that the lights are activated only when you make a pressure on the touchscreen buttons. Is what you know to do that?
Loved the crazy discos...
Great idea, and nicely implemented. :thumbup:
Possible to add an option to turn off the LED?
Regards.

The LEDs should go off when you change the selection on either drop down list.
Sometimes you may need to toggle audio source on and off before it really goes off
It's cool. Haha, I feel like little child playing with his torches.

Nice! I see you've finally made it public. cool!
Need to toggle first to make it works

great app and great idea..!! Request :- please add more options for light patterns with music... they look really cool with the music!!
Simply awesome............ make it more smooth if you can... great app by the way....
Nice app will use it alot..
Confirming that this app works fcking seXy on Xperia U with CM9 (fxp145) ALso, love the rainbow thing Gr8 job And hell the music thing works toooo seXy on CM9 also ..............
But why the LEDs are back to normal if i am back to home screen by pressing back button its nt permanent .
But the left led is stable ..dont do anything
Btw, Made a Quick Review http://youtu.be/6Tn-tZPzAxE
Good job, thanks!
Too bad Android closes it when I play a memory intensive game, such as Dead Trigger... It'd be cool to have the light effects while shooting
Can you do a root version and make it stay in the memory of the phone?
Could you make it turn of when the screen does and turn on when the screen does cause that'd be perfect

The default behavior for an app is to shut down when you press the back button. If you want to keep it running in the background you can press the home button instead.

I don't know how it works with high prio processes on android, but I can look into it.
I also don't really know how good android is at deciding when to kill apps.
It is supposed to only kill apps when other apps need the memory, but I guess it is possible that it kills apps earlier than it really needs to.
Anyone know how good this works?
I don't want to change the app so it makes the rest of the system run poorly by holding on to memory that really should have been released.

Well, it works with apps which are not very ram hungry, such as Jetpack Joyride and others.
WOW i love you *_* miss function for perma on

Yes, but if the android framework is doing a good job it means your game really need the ram, so if my app stays active the game may not work so well any more.

Yeah I understand this. A few MBs can mean a lot in some games...
cool app reminds me of my old SE W830 that has this orange walkman button that also lights up according to the beat of the music. is it possible for you to include another color?
I want to turn my galaxy s2 into a actioncam, therefore i need an app that can records with the screen locked or off. is there an exciting or developed app that does that.
thanks, Robert

This is almost a perfect program for it, only it doesn't rotate the camera, and i have to put the camera in upright position on the steering.
If there's another app for rotating the movie's its perfect.
Thank a lot
Greats Robert
Its almost impossible to type a fast conversation. Is Skips keys, gets stuck, lags.. but the most annoyung thing is that you press some keys (random) and the phone doesnt even recognize that you press them... ive deactivated the Skype as they say it was the problem..., but it seems to keep on going.. I also have an s5 and you can type way much faster with no lag....
Can you please guys help me solve it? It happend with google and samsung keyboard.

When I use Fleksy, the only time I get lag is when I am using it within a text editor.. I recommend you try it.. They recently went freemium, but the app was one of the Galaxy Gifts.
