Will Inserting Custom Camera Sound file into custom rom work? - AT&T LG Optimus G

Will inserting custom camera sounds into a custom rom camera apk(Snow jb) by means of Winrar Work? I tried inserting the custom sounds directly into the camera apk but then the camera would force close. Thanks in advance.

Not sure, but I'd guess you would have to decompile the app (apktool maybe), swap out the sound file, then recompile and sign it. Haven't done anything like this, just taking a guess based on stuff I've read.

I don't think you have to go threw all of that its just an ogg file under system/media/audio/camera_click.ogg I would assume you could just replace it with a different ogg file named the same and make sure permissions are correct.
Edit: forgot to say I always delete this file so I can have a silent camera

The actually camera sounds are inside the camera apk. I believe the camera sounds in system/media/audio/camera are for the stock camera, i guess my camera is the at&t camera and has its sounds in the apk..

[Q] IS it possible to switch dialer apks

I want to switch dialer apk from one rom to another should just use take files and place them in rom from my computer using win zip then re flash the rom? is there an easier way... sometimes it doesn't take...
Take the dialers...
The original one located in system/app
Rename it from dialer.apk to dialer.apk.bak
Then put the other dialer in, system/app
Reboot see if it works fine.
If it doesn't you'll get fcs.
If it works then it works.
If it doesn't...
Go back to system/app
Delete the dialer.apk you got from another rom.
And the original you had remove.bak from it and reboot..
I suggest you only switch apk from vibrant roms, using others like... Htc dialer probably won't work and sometimes you may have to re flash rom.
P.s.
Use root explorer to do the renaming moving etc. it's a paid app, worth it!
If you want a free, use astro file manager

Send me your email address and I will send you the dialer tab apk and the phone apk from the old malice with the call recording feature, if that's what your after. You can just use root explorer and drop them in system/app.

The only thing mine does is create empty audio files. so I had to replace them (phone & DialerAct.) with the ones from an earlier Bionix ROM.

[HELP] bootanimation w/ sound

I found this smoked glass animation and applied it with root (no roms) by just replacing the stock one in /local/data folder and works well but want a sound I picked out and don't know whether the stock kernel supports sound.
If it does, could you guys help me out? I don't know how to mod the .desc.txt file...
I will look when I get home.
Files should be in /system/media though.

I tried making you files to copy and paste into your system. It was fine, but the audio clip is crap, and you can barely hear it. When I converted it to mp3, (which by the way was your problem.........need mp3 or ogg), and added gain, it about blew my speakers because you have a nasty sound which sounds like someone putting a needle on a record at the start.
Thanks a lot for helping

Not to annoy anyone.... But, could anyone tell me how to make it find the sound file?

I would download a boot animation with sound, and one without sound, then extract both of them and look at the file structures for each. Open the desc.txt file on both and compare them. You will find the main difference is that the boot animation with audio has an audio file in the zip file, and is called up in the desc.txt file.
Best to use 7-Zip.
When zipping your files back up to create the bootanimation.zip, you need to set 7-Zip to:
Archive Format = zip
Compression Level = store

[Q] Need help making a boot animation for thunderbolt

I have tried a multitude of the other guides for other devices, but so far no luck. I have the pt1 and pt2 folders set up just need to know the config for thunderbolt.
Thanks
Garrett
Drop pt.1 pt.2 into "bootanimation.zip" Use Root Explorer to copy it to the system/media folder. Make sure its the right folder, check "system/customize/resources" if not media if you didn't know. Text file in zip. Works for my thunderbolt running Bamf Sense3.0 RC4.9 Running stargate bootanimation.
http://db.tt/boP69kE
Take wife, take car, don't touch my Thunderbolt...
I dropped a link to my bootanimation.zip file. Just add your pt.1 pt.2 to the zip and drop it in your "system/media" or "system/customize/resources" file, which ever one it is. Use Root Explorer, if you didn't know that is. Use at own risk. I don't know what you files are. Make nand backup always....
Take wife, take car, don't touch my Thunderbolt...
You need a .txt file to let the phone know what part to run when and at what fps but I can't remember the code, my suggestion is to find your stock ani and look inside it for this

I don't get it, I have a part1 part2 desc.txt all put into a bootanimation.zip, I can't get this thing to work, my png's are set to 480x800pixels and they were edited in photoshop. I can't get this thing at all

try this one
http://www.mediafire.com/file/e6eajlp9paa7up0/bootanimation.zip
OK so I looked at your ani and this is what I suggest
First the only folders that should be in the zip is part 1, part 2, and the desc.txt
When I opened your zip these files were inside two other folders
Second change the PNG numbers to start at 1 (they currently start at 3
Third change the numbering to 3 digits instead of what you have now. Ie 001....etc
I can't guarantee this will fix it but its all I got. Lol

Sorry bro, wife had a baby last week so ive been a bit busy, LOL....I can't find anything in the .zip that would be out of the ordinary to make the images stretched....even when previewed they are Crystal clear....I'm stumped.

[APP] MIUI Camera on CM7

The attached camera app, MIUIcamera-signed.apk will let you see the MIUI Camera on CM7.
Installation is simple, just install end enjoy!
Thanks to csdj92 for figuring out that I had to use the signed version and thanks to kaos217 for posting the signed apk (attached) (originally posted here)
If you're like me and hate having multiple "default" camera apps, using an app such as Root Explorer or Astro File Manager you can go to system/app/ and rename Camera.apk to something else, or delete it all together
Cheers!
Okay, so before anyone on here insults me for asking this, I've tried searching it out and I've found that other people have been able to do this (specifically, on the Evo) but I haven't been able to get it going.
Since MIUI & CM7 are both AOSP build, shouldnt I be able to remove CM7's camera and replace it with MIUI's? I don't like CM7's camera implementation, but I LOVE MiUI's camera.
From what I gathered in this thread, I had to backup the stock camera app, delete it. Rename the MIUI Camera to camera.apk, place it in the system/app/ folder. Then I had to long press on the camera, set permissions to 644 (read) and reboot.
I reboot but I get an error saying Com.Miui.Camera has force closed. Any help?
Attached is the MIUI Camera APK
Try downloading the signed apk on the second page from the OG post. I tried with the one on your post got the error, then tried with the signed apk and it worked fine.

I tried the signed APK and it doesnt work either.
Scratch that, when I tried restoring with Root Manager it or pushing it via ADB, it didn't work, but when I installed it like a regular package, it worked just fine. Disabling the CM7 camera now
Thanks

I think there is a newer version of MIUI camera available... I'm gonna try to sign the new version and release it.
Thanks man, been looking for a better camera since I left all sense behind.

I never said that AOSP's camera was good either. I like MIUI's camera.
What a real shame about the camera, and also the shocking battery life off 7.2!
i am going back to 2.3.6. I had a better time with that.

Install Nexus 4 Camera on Razr HD

I did not port this over I just am giving you a way to install on your Razr HD.
Download the zip from here ---- >http://d-h.st/lVe
Then follow the directions from here ---> http://pastebin.com/gcHJrFQc
Remember to edit your build.prop ---> editing your build prop can lead to future problems.
Have you tested it? Is there a bigger difference?

I installed it via es file explorer. Not gonna really change the picture quality much but the software is much better imo. No more 10 second shutter lag
i want to try this but im being a scardey cat.
i dont think i know enough about this.
is there a step by step?

if ur scared of adb, use es file explorer. Make the root directory writable in settings. The adb commands in the instructions are just pasting the files from the zip into the system/lib and system/app folders. Then u can use Rom Toolbox Lite to edit the build.prop
Thanks
Wow, thanks for this! I can confirm that it works with the 4.1.1 Jelly Bean leak. This was my first experience using adb too, so the instructions were nice and easy for my newbness.
Is there any way to hide the old gallery and camera?
Can this be done with the keyboard and alarm clock from the Nexus 4 too?
Google play says that my phone is a "Motorola Galaxy Nexus" now xD
would installing this via root explorer have any correlation to why my 4g hasn't worked since I installed? the camera and gallery seem to work fine, and i copied over the apk, lib files, and edited build prop all according to directions.
otherwise, 4g is out in my area.

So this increases the shutter speed right?
Because thats the only thing I cant stand with the camera.
