Hi guys. My issue is that I was trying out an alternate camera for my rooted A116 and I accidentally ended up downloading and flashing the wrong version (which isn't compatible with this device) and the camera fc'd on launch.
But I had taken precautions and made a Titanium Backup of my old Gallery.
.
Since I couldn't restore the old gallery directly due to the apk having a different name (it was a 4.3 apk) I had to manually go and delete it using root explorer. But I accidentally ended up deleting other files similar to gallery, which I suspect are related to the camera. That's it I screwed up.
Even after restoring the old gallery all I get is a very laggy gallery and no camera application (will not launch from gallery or lockscreen either) same result with trying to flash stock gallery downloaded from this forum.
I even tried flashing the 4.1 gallery but same result. Every time I get a laggy and a buggy gallery and no camera app.
Also tried installing 3rd party camera and gallery apps from the play store. All of them showed error and failed to launch camera and the gallery was the same... Slow and buggy
So can anyone please help me get back CAMERA+4.2 gallery?
I'm on Android version 4.2.2 which should be the latest available on the device.
Thanks! :'(

will suggest you to take a backup of your application & sms ( app backup & restore , sms backup & restore) and contacts and reflash the ROM as no one will be able to blindly guess which all apks you deleted.

I deleted the files in system/app which had a gallery icon and had similar names (like you could tell they are related to gallery/camera)
If anyone with stock camera can give a screenshot of their system/app root browser I can point out the missing apks.
EDIT: In the worst case scenario does anyone have a flashable zip that will allow me to go back to stock easily and maintain root? Of not what I'd the safest and the easiest way?

Ok so i got my first rom and was messing around with it ( bi winning v3) and i went to the SGS tools app and selected the option to update stock apps and this is where i screwed up , i tried to install the modded 3d gallery and the hacked camera.apk but after i downloaded both of them , and went out of the app , i noticed my gallery and camera are both missing from the app menu and if i try to open something that has to do with the gallery the app would crash , so does anyone know how to get back my camera app and gallery app? i read you need to flash , but what do i flash exactly??
Download bloater from birgertime (app section)
Don't install the stock gallery, it's a hog and slow. Try quickpic in the Market, lite, options, fast.
Or else you can just unzip the ROM using.go to system/app in extracted file..there you will find the original gallery and camera apps.just replace the gallery and camera apps using root explorer in system/app

Root your phone and install the Google gallery again.
Or look for the stock gallery on this forum.
If you don't want to root your phone backup what you can,and do a factory reset.

I have both the note 2 gallery and the Google galley both installed and working. Though camera doesn't work correctly for the Google 4.2 when using flash.

GoogleGallery.apkm is a system app..system apps are not meant to be installed..they are not signed so cannot be installed in the normal way..to use a system app you will need root...after you are rooted move the apk to /system/app forder and give rw-r--r-- permission and reboot..

Its not possible without root.
You can download QuickPic from the store so you can see your picture's again.

Hello
two days ago I flashed the DHD from my daughter with Sabsa Prime V12.
All seem to be ok but we still missing some apps.
There is no galery app to view the pictures, no musicplayer app, no calendar app and no mail app except gmail.
So it is necessary to install all of them from Play Store or is it a error? But I have exactly done what is described into the installation video fro sabsa prime.
Or is there a error which results into this missing apps?
Are the apps shown in the system apps? Or just go to root of your system /app and install them
FRIEND IF I HELPED YOU
HIT THANKS
I must take a look in the evening when my daughter is back.
Can I simply install them like all other apk?
Yes install them normally
IMP to browse root of your syestem , download a good file manager and give it root access if they are not shown in settings-manage apps-all and if you don't find in syestem/app then you might have to reflash the rom or simplly download them from play store
Hello,
I was erasing some stuff with titanium backup and I delete intentionally the people app, because I didn't want my phone list on the google account; however deleting people app has broken somehow the dialer too and now I can't use it anymore.
I tryed to delete totally the stock dialer and installing a new one downloaded from google play store but it still doesn't work (I couldn't see while calling).
I tryed to download and use the .apk files from kitkat but none of them works.
My phone is a Moto G and it's rooted.
Could someone please give me a suggestion about what to do?
Thanks in advance!

Ok nevermind, I solved flashing the stock rom with a guide

Try clearing the data of that particular app. If that doesn't work, try clearing only cache and dalvik cache. Then reflash the os and bootup.:fingers-crossed:
Thanks for the reply
Installed camera from play store the icon appears for a second and then disaapears .I tried everything possible. Camera still not working. I think it's hardware problem. I haven't tried flashing my stock camera its not available online
