[Q] Photosphere with 4.2 camera - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Has anyone gotten Photosphere to work with the Prime? It crashes after taking the first picture. I got a logcat of it happening. I don't have a working device to see what errors normally occur, could anyone with PS working post a logcat?

Hi there, I installed it. What did you think? It was quite good everything worked except for the 360 sphere thingy. Like you said it crashes when you click the shutter.
I don't know if I liked the gallery app that came with it. Just 2 rows of big square images. It was also missing some of the editing functions we have in the stock gallery app, like red eye reduction.
The best bit was the camera interface, full screen image with transparent settings, pinch to zoom. Looked really good. But again was missing some features we have now. Like the face warp effects when shooting video.
A blend of the current stock gallery and the camera ui interface from 4.2 would be sweet

I was able to get it installed, the zip i had contained a bunch of added needed libs. There are 2 new icons, another camera, and another gallery. When i go to do a sphere, i dont crash, i just get a message that states that our device isnt supported yet. Model: Transformer Prime TF201 (asus)
I'm using the one that i installed on my One s http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965492 it works well, i just cant seem to geotag them, so i cant upload.

Best gallery app?

Can anyone recommend a good gallery app, paid or free. I installed gingerbread and although I like the new gallery it's just so slow. It never loads all the thumbnails so I can't tell what each picture is without pressing it.
I appreciate any suggestions.

I use QuickPic -- its free on the market. Great gallery app, fast, smooth, loads up images in NO time.
I'm using Gallery+ right now cuz I hate 2.3.4's Gallery, gotta try that QuickPic one.
I use Quickpic. Love it.

+1 for QuickPic
will have to check it out; i HATE that the new gallery is all timecode based; i have all my pics (i am a published pro photographer and cameraman) organized meticulously and the new gallery wont let me just see everything in the old froyo file system. plus it is (WAY) slower and will not properly load thumbnails so 95% of my shots (which i keep in full res on the external SD card) show up without a thumbnail or title.
totally unacceptable to me. also i dont do social networking (AT ALL, i call/tango/skype if needed and talk or text but i prefer REAL human interaction) so tagging etc is useless for me.
+982343 for QuickPic
Super fast, and also renders images you use for WALLPAPER without any quality loss; if you set a wallpaper using the stock gallery vs quickpic you will see a stark difference.

yep, i noticed this straight away, with the wallpapers, and luckily quickpic does them perfectly, best gallery ive used.
Is the crap quality wallpaper thing a problem with the atrix gallery app or is it the same on other phones?
You guys are all correct, Quickpic is great. I need to start recommending it to people. Thanks again.

Another vote for Quickpic here... Flashed 2.3.4 a few days ago and I have been more than disappointed with the new stock gallery app. Quickpic is definitely the answer. It organizes everything for you.

Quickpic has my vote! So much easier to use!
Agreed quick pic is great but I also use b and b http://gallery.breadandbuttertool.com/ which has better folder options in certain circumstances imo. Those 2 though are all I need really!
quickpic!!
Quickpic is about the best.
But one feature that they ALL lack is an ability (option) not to recursively show subfolders.
ie, I have a folder called pets, and inside two more called cat, and dog. From the main gallery I only want to see pets and any images in pets. If I want to dig into cat or dog, I want to see those as subfolders. Just like folders in Windows.
If you like the idea of this, send an email to the author of quickpic. I requested this and he likes the idea. He said maybe if more people request it.
Okay, my personal mission aside.
Has anyone frozen (TiBu) the stock gallery app? I don't like it, and I'm tired of it littering my /sd with cache folders all over the place.
Yet another vote for quickpic.
Hey guys. I did a factory restore on my phone for reasons unrelated to the gallery, but when it was done, the factory gallery now works flawlessly. It loads up almost instantly and the thumbnails are perfect. I still think I like quickpic better, but I thought I would let you guys know what happened.

I have tried a few gallery apps because i totally hate the stock gallery app as well. I love how smooth QuickPic is. They recently released a latest version of this app, making pinch to zoom look like eye candy.
Have a look at this youtube link and see for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQdOwRCh__g
*Note: This is the old version of QuickPic though....the latest version is WAY smoother.

[Q] Is there a way to change the camera app located in the lockscreen?

I've recently downloaded camera Zoom FX which is a fantastic alternative for the stock camera. I've set the app as my default camera app and added it to my dock. However, I couldn't find any settings to make the camera app located on the lockscreen (by swyping the lockscreen to the right) substituted by camera zoom FX.
Any suggestion on how to do that?
Thanks in advance!
download Widget Locker
Thanks. So there is no way to define this in the stock screenlock?
Brilliant question. This was the first thing I wanted to know when I saw the camera shortcut on the lock screen...i may just add to the question..is there a way we can add any other shortcut to it? Like message, mail, call log etc...?
Widget Locker allows this but I can't find a way to do it stock.
why would you want to replace it? camera zoom fx doesnt offer video recording right, so the stock camera is handier ir am i missing something here?

Some people don't take video that much. I hardly do. Mostly still photos.
Also, there are other camera apps that do allow for video, so being able to change from the stock camera is a helpful mod.

absolutely buddy...i don't either...wonder why is only camera as an option there...hmmm..anyways...any hope ICS would open up other options?
This is definitely a good question. I'm sure a dev could figure it out.

Here's another great reason to change the default camera button on the lockscreen The ICS camera on the Droid Razr!!!!!!

Anybody figure this out yet on how to change the default camera on the lockscreen without Widget Locker?
Well, FWIW, it is possible. I don't know how but CM7 allows for 4 different shortcuts of your choice on the lock screen. If you can do it on CM7, I imagine it's possible with any rom.

How to apply my own wallpapers...

Hi All,
I apologize, I know this has been covered before, but I am confused and having some issues applying my own photos for wallpapers on CM9. I used to use the HP wallpaper applier when I used CM7, but it keeps crashing with CM9.
Anyway, I have high res raw photos that I can resize to whatever I choose. I used to use 1536x1024, but now it still crops/zooms/blurs it when I apply the wallpaper. I've used the stock one, ES and quickpic. I have also tried other resolutions, but it still crops/blurs my images.
Can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong? Is there a way to get the HP wallpaper app to work on CM9?
Also should mention I'm running 120 dpi, if that makes a difference.
Try using OI File Manager in conjunction with the HP Touchpad Applier.

I'm currently on CN. I will flash to CM9 and see if I can figure it out for you. Give me about half an hour so I can backup, flash, etc.
What version of CM9 are you on?
Sent from my MIUI Evo 3D
Ok, I flashed over to CM9 Alpha 2. I can finish that HP Touchpad Wallpaper Applier force closes. I installed OI File Manager then retried the HP Touchpad Wallpaper Applier and it worked perfectly. I tested it with multiple wallpapers with no negative effects.
I recorded a video of it if your interested.
My suggestion is try uninstalling the wallpaper app, re install, install OI File Manager and it should work. Worst case scenario is having to do a fresh install of CM9.
Sent from my MIUI Evo 3D
Yes if you install the applier and the oi file manager the app works pretty dang great, no crashes or issues, if you need wallpapers (which need to be at or above 1536*1024) you can get them in my thread in my signiture
Thanks guys. I installed oi file manager and it the app works now! Except, it still crops my photos and zooms in a bit. Nothing terrible, but it still does it.

The reason it appears to be cropping is because the Touchpad is originally 1024x768. The app requires a higher resolution to account for the scrolling wallpaper effect. If you have multiple screens, take a look to get an idea if what I mean.

I personally use multipicture live wallpaper and it pretty fantastic..yes it has a bit of cropping (but not much) but i think all of them do. I recommend it because you can have it switch wallpapers at set intervals or by simply double tapping any blank area of the screen to get a new image. I downloaded a bunch of images from some of the various wallpaper threads and I found a bunch of ipad wallpapers from flicker. Very pleased with this app check it out...

also there is a paid version
Thanks guys. I'm ok with the cropping, just thought I remember it not cropping but taking the full image with CM7.

Senseless ROM bugs

Hey guys! I've recently started using Fourth Bar Jellybean (and by far the most impressive desensed ROM yet), however there are a few bugs I've noticed that desensed ROMs all tend to have and I was wondering if there would be any fixes for the following:
Google Play music turns the wallpaper on the lockscreen black and doesn't show any music controls
HTCLinkifyDispatcher.apk tends to screw things up. For instance, if I click a link to YouTube it will take me to the browser page instead of the YouTube app. If you delete or rename HTCLinkifyDispatcher this fixes the issue, however in chat clients such as imo, IM+, or Google Talk, clicking a link will crash the app.
Those are the most prominent bugs that I can think off right off the top of my head. Like I said, Fourth Bar Jellybean did a REALLY fantastic job of desensing the ROM, but a couple of HTC Sense bugs still remain.
Let me know what you guys think - is there a fix for any of this?
Thanks!
If Rom devs changed their base to a telus base the link issue would be fixed all round without the need to modify anything, the Google music part I'm not sure of since I don't use it.
sent from a smooth place where my fingers trace across the screen to see your face and make you scream!
I think the google music doing that has something to do with the theme. It's not playing nice I'm most likely a bug. I remember flashing a theme and some music controls weren't showing up but they were there since I knew where they were I clicked. Are yours still function?

This thing though is that it's not really a theme, I think it's an issue with the lockscreen itself. Come to think of it, it seems like EclipzeRemix got his to work in his Project Butter ROM. Maybe the apk can be extracted from it and reflashed/replaced in Fourth Bar?

It's worth a shot, don't ya think? Better to try and fail that to sit doing nothing until your rom dev fixes the issue, though I do think it may be a system issue, tried updating the app itself?

[Q] does the 4.2 camera app have facial effects/ special backgrounds

i have installed the 4.2 camera app on my galaxy nexus and i cant find the facial effects/ backgrounds like the ics and jelly bean camera apps had? did they remove it completely or just hid it somewhere?
I'd like to know this as well. Are they hidden or simply removed? Anyone know why?
For me, it seems like they removed the effects completely. I use 4.2 on the Nexus 7, which doesn't usually support the stock camera app. But I installed the app from the market (back when i had 4.1 on the tablet), and the 4.2 update changed the camera app to the new interface. Life effects seem to be gone, can't find them anywhere. I don't know why Google removes that stuff just like that, was a really funny feature in my opinion.
Nevertheless, i tried to find a way to get the old app back (my N7 is unrooted) and found this app: "Camera ICS" by Moblynx
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moblynx.cameraics#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDIxMiwiY29tLm1vYmx5bnguY2FtZXJhaWNzIl0
I works fine for me, there also is a paid version, but the effects work fine in this one. :good:
Thanks I didn't know that existed. Still don't see why they just wouldn't leave those options in. Also, the background options (where it says lay down the table for a moment) I was never able to get that to work in this or in the official google camera app. Is there some trick I'm not doing?
I think you have to have a clean, single coloured background for it to work. Try a simple white wall or something similar. And when it says "lay down the tablet" of course don't put it down, just make sure you get out of the picture for a moment, then back in. But it doesn't really work very well. Just a little gimmick, the facial effects are much better
