APK alone won't be enough. There are some needed libs in order for this to work.
Guess we'll just have to wait till someone ports it to our Note.

We will probably get something similar or just a port.
I have this option on Saurom 7.1.... Not sure if it's the same but....

Id like to test it out but Im out all day. Someone test if they can and report back or I could see if i can port it over. May take some time but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Link to the mod:
http://hx-custom-roms.com/galaxy-s3-mod-hx-is-back.html/comment-page-1#comment-45062
Instructions are simple:
"replace original SamsungCamera.apk in system\app\ with this one using e.g. “Root explorer” or something… You need a rooted Device!"
Since it's just an apk, there shouldn't any harm in just testing it out -- just be sure to make a nandroid backup and be prepared to use adb to push the original SamsungCamera.apk back to /system/app if it causes any sort of bootloop/fails.
My suspicion is that it does rely on some of the S3's unique framework or lib files, and the camera hardware itself is also different, so it probably won't "just work"... but ya never know! lol
I also posted on HyperX's site to see if he has any interest in getting it ported to our i717...

Have a link to that CWM zip? It may contain additional system files that support the apk, so I'd like to take a quick look at it.
if this works, it would be sweet!
I just tried to install the apk...doesn't want to install!. I changed permissions and put into system/app then rebooted...it was worth a try but nope...

I did the same. Flashed and put in system/app. Apk stays but doesn't show up. Missing some libs or something to make it work. Maybe someone will make it work.

Its a mod that increases the resolution of the camera. It makes taking videos a bit more smoother and it increases the fps of 1080 and 720 video. They say that 60 fps is soon to come.

I have been skimming through the Android development and original android development forums in search of a TW-based ROM that is extremely lite, with everything but the bare necessities removed, but haven't been able to find one. I might have accidentally gone by it, but I cannot find any.
Do you know if such exists? I am not willing to go with AOSP just yet.
With extremely lite, I'm talking at the most 250mb ROM size, instead of TW's 1300mb.
Isn't HyperGalaxy TW based and very lite? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695562
I use it but I don't have TouchWiz on it, if I remember correctly though, that is because I removed it manually. I do believe it comes with TouchWiz as default. And all Samsung apps, no AOSP.
You can also remove even more stuff from it if you find it contains things you don't want. It weighs in at 226MB.
It's awesome. Chicks dig it.

No FM Radio on mine, but searched for the term in the thread and found this link to a flashable CWM zip that contains the radio app. https://www.dropbox.com/s/dcc9ibksklg85jx/Gallery_FMradio.zip
I don't know if it works or not, or if the FM Radio required libs have been removed from the ROM, and I don't want to try it since I hate radio with all my heart and will not succumb to even clicking an FM Radio icon once. I would have to sell my device after that since it would be forever tainted. :silly:
You should ask people in the HyperGalaxy thread!
There is a whole host of add-on apps that have been removed linked from the main post. In fact there might be another thread just for the hypergalaxy add-ons.

Hey Guys,
I found these over in the Galaxy Nexus forum but it works with my PA 2.53 Nov.4 build. Its the Full google apps for 4.2 Jelly Bean including: the Launcher, Gmail, calendar, clock, ringtones, wall papers, camera, gallery, keyboard, and playstore 3.9.17. I found only one issue so far and its that the launcher doesn't show a tab in my settings so i can modify homescreen settings and whatnot. You can still use the original that comes with the ROM though. Its pretty cool so check em out and let me know if you see the same issue i did or any others and try to post what ROM your using and your kernal) if its different than the one that came with the ROM (ex//im using PA 2.53 Nov.4th with the KKX. 12 kernal) so others can help as best as possible.

Its not the video player that is broken its the recorder, it doesnt seem to be supported or something for some reason. I just download camera ICS for video recording and it works fine. The camera and gallery would be worth it to me but along with that you just get an updated version of Gmail and other google apps. It's cool if you're into staying up to date with the newest and greatest.

This one? The one that has the gapps listed in the first post? 4.2 gapps will just cause you problems with the camera, and it's a downgrade from the 4.1 camera.

Hello i am currently trying to get the 4.2 Photosphere camera to work with our phone but have had no luck... It force closes and breaks. Sometimes i even get the message "Camera not found." I have tried to get a logcat but there is literally so much spam going on with my current Touchwiz rom that i find it a waste of time to comb through it or upload it. When I finally flash a AOSP rom i will try again and upload a logcat. Here is a tutorial with i found to be complete crap and lies...
http://droidviews.com/2013/how-to-install-android-4-2-photosphere-camera-on-samsung-galaxy-s4/
They said it works when obviously it doesnt. I noticed they they installed in on the international version with the 8-Core and we are using the Quad Core model. Maybe that is the reason.
Any help will be greatly appreciated and a donation will surely follow once we get this straightened out.

Yeah, I would be curious if it worked on an current device w/ aosp or AOKP rom, as opposed to a tw rom. I really think that tw screws the photosphere up...idk...a few more flashes and I'll know. BTW, got a link to the photosphere app? I lost mine on backup and for the life of me, I can't remember where I got a good version of it...

I tried Carbon rom and it did not work there also, i believe that is built off of Cyanogenmod so i'm pretty sure its something to do with our device specifically... but what do i know. thats why i asked this question in the first place.
Google hasn't released the code for photosphere so its buggy on aosp ROMs
ill be glad to try it out when they do. why wouldnt they have something like this ready for such a great phone?

i recently installed the Cyanogenmod 10.1 on my GT-I9305 but after the i realized that the old storage is gone "internal storage" so it says that i am using more than 50% from it even it's a clean install meaning the old data are still there and i am not able to see them , so i went to the recovery mode and the old files and date were there and a new folder with name (0) has the new apps and data , so the question here is how can i view the old data storage so i can move them to the new one , or to view them on my computer , i am new in XDA so i couldn't post it on the Cyanogenmod forum . thanks in advance
This is not I9305 forum .

Personally , I am very happy with SlimBean (AOSP) as it delivers speed and gives me all features I want. The only thing I miss is the AllShare app for my AllShare Cast Dongle. Regarding camera, the AOSP 2.6 app gives most of the Samsung TW features, for Samsung S Planner, I use the stock Google Calendar App and for Music I use Poweramp, maybe try them, Poweramp got a free version as well.
