[Tutorial] CM12 for Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo! - Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo S5310

Hey xda-developers,
It's me Gio, and I made a tutorial for you guys on how to get Android 5.0.2 on Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo but then the correct way.
First of all, me or the developers that made this ROM and the developers who made the other stuff are not responsible for any damage, this is completely your choice if something screws up. I don't think that something will happen but you will never know what happens. And second, I would like to thank the developers (flex1911, MatheusAlves and the others who made the project).
Tutorial:
1. Make a backup of all your data that is laying in your device. Think for example about important text messages, contacts, photos, or something else.
2. Make sure that you will be able to restore that backup after. So put it in your microSD card or on the computer.
3. Download the new ROM from the link which you can locate below this tutorial.
4. Place it in your device and boot your device into TWRP or CWM. Personally I find TWRP much more handy but your choice.
5. Wipe data, cache and dalvik.
6. Flash this ROM and if you have any other zip to flash (like a Dolby extension or Google Apps), do it after flashing this ROM.
7. Wipe cache and dalvik one more time to avoid errors.
8. Reboot your device and wait till you see the homescreen.
9. Download Wake Lock and install it on your device. (If you are going to install it from APK4Fun for example, you probably need to accept unknown sources from Security in Settings).
10. Open Wake Lock when it is installed and tick the PARTIAL~WAKE~LOCK. This is important to avoid numerous reboots, don't forget to enable it again after every reboot since it may dropout when your turn off your device.
11. Download keylayout.rar from the link which you can locate below this tutorial.
12. Unrar it, and copy the keylayout folder to your device.
13. On your device, open up the Files app.
14. Go to the hamburger menu left above and then go to the gear icon which is the settings.
15. Go to General and then scroll to advanced, and then tick on the first setting of advanced and change it to root modus.
16. SuperUser is going to ask you for permission, accept it.
17. Locate now your keylayout folder and then copy the whole folder.
18. Go back to the hamburger menu and you will see home with under it this symbol "/", tick it and go then to /system/ and then /usr/.
19. You will probably notice that there is already a folder named keylayout, just do nothing with it, you will now paste the folder you copied earlier just there and if it askes to merge and overwrite, just accept it.
20. When it is done, reboot your device and your home button will work again.
Download links:
1. ROM
-- ht tps://goo.gl/KnXXsP
2. Google Apps
-- ht tps://itvends.com/gapps/gapps-lp-20141212-signed.zip
3. keylayout.rar
-- ht tps://goo.gl/l04S6x
4. Wake Lock
-- Google Play -> search for Wake Lock PowerManger
-- ht tp://dl3.apk-dl.com/store/download/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl
What works?
- EGL
- Touchscreen
- RIL
- Internal Storage and microSDcard
- Sensors
- Bluetooth
- Wi-Fi
- Camera
- Hardware keys (after changing keylayout)
- Wi-Fi tethering
- Audio
What does not works?
- Microphone
- Mobile Data (2G and 3G)
- and some more stuff but did not across them
Thanks for reading and I hope that you are helped after reading this. Again, if you want to thank me, only do it for the cleared up tutorial, the people who made the ROM and the fixes are the ones who you should thank actually!

Whuuuuu
Thank you man !!
but this Rom is different from Flex rom !?
waiting for the stable version
we want to fix the sound recorder problem :'(
waiting for more success : الضحك:

Well, something it's something. Do you have can fix any other bug? Like the problem with theming or App2sd, you should also find a solution to those bugs.

####Install Instructions####
- Copy the andboot folder to the root of your SD

Android uses your storage card. To go back to wimo you have restart you device.
When you want to update android: Download the files and over write the existing files.
Once installed Android, I can enter to Android, and Restart my device, I can go to my Windows mobile , So I want to Android again, How can I do? Need to install Andriod again????
does this work on the NEON?
Boot manager
I think there should be a boot manager.
ther IS a bootmanger:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792
Kernel Panic...
I had a kernel panic during the haret booting. then said..."Rebooting in 3 seconds..." then it freezed. Help.
@nik2208:
Do you have linux or programming experiences?
@rhombus:
I did not test it on the neon, just on my nike 20keys, you could try it and let me know.
@ebautista:
Do you use the zimage in my package? Try using another zimage, maybe the latest on the vogue project page works.
For the data connection i found that ppp is not invoked because i get an error that says that only root can run /bin/pppd, so maybe the data connection does not work becase pppd is not invoked, i will make some tries to check that.
@m0rph3us
both
Very good, i am working on the data problem, first of all pppd had permission problems so i fixed that, pppd is now called but it fail when it tries to create a pid file becase it says that the filesystems is read only... do you have icq or msn so we can se what we can do next?
@12432
i think this time is different: the installing procedure tells that the process is going to overwrite the rom..
the old android version used the storage card like a guest..not this one..
@12432:
Dont choose to install it on the nand, choose sdcard partition or image files... Android will be installed on the sdcard and winmo remains on the nand.
You did a great job man, got it running on my HTC Nike, and it performs better than other android ports ( looking to speed and connectivity ). The only downsides at the moment, is that i can't activate XT9 dictionary while writing a message, and the camera functionality ( every port had this for as far I know, so can't blaim you ).
So my question to you is, do you know any way to enable (Dutch) XT9 on this rom? I got the device running on Dutch language now, but in the dictionary-settings, there are no known words, whatsoever. Since I don't know if there is any way to browse my storage card ( didn't see any explorer or anything ), i can't install it like a cab or anything.
Would be cool if i could get it running, would make it a wonderfull android port
I have an old android 1.5 with data working, it can help you for the data on 2.1 ?
[email protected]
Ok guys, big step foward, i am connected succesfully to the internet, but dns does not work, this means:
- If i open the browser and type www.google.com no page is displayed
- If i open the browser and type the ip-adress of www.googl.com, the page is displayed
so there is just a little dns problem, maybe tomorrow i am able to solve it, even the 3g icon on the top is not displayed...
why am I not able to install the os?
after the choice "install" the procedure starts formatting..
then, and after a lot, a message tells
"can't umount /data: invalid arguments" and goes back to initial choice list..
After installation process when you are back in the list choose fix permissions,then back In the list choose quit than wait...after a few minutes Android. Should start

Basic Setup with Stock and Market for GTAB

I did this basic setup for my woot acquired GTAB. The primary reason was to keep the stock ROM but get the fully functional Android Market. I wanted to give these instructions out to real newbies who may want to do the bare minimum to keep their TAB up and running with all apps and without doing a flash with custom ROM. I wanted to include a more step by step for people who are less tech savvy so please bear with the details if you are a tech guy.
1. Get the Over The Air update to update to 3588. The OTA push happens automatically if you have connectivity (wifi is setup). You can also check it via the updates app that should have come with the stock ROM.
2. Download the enhancement pack - TnT Enhancement Pack v3.1.4b file from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=74HGJNEL to your desktop or laptop. The file name should be TnT_Enhancement_3389_v3_1_4b.rar
3. Try opening the file using winzip or any zip program. If it doesn't install winrar version available at http://www.win-rar.com/download.html.
4. Extract contents to a local folder on your computer using the zip/ winrar program. It has files update.zip, a recover folder that contains a command file
5. Connect your TAB to the computer with the min-usb cable and activate the usb transfer (I think it comes up with that option)
6. GTAB should show up as another drive in your system. With windows explorer browse this drive to locate the "sdcard" folder.
7. Copy the update.zip and recover (containing command file) folder from the location you extracted on your computer (step 4) into the sdcard folder identified on step 6.
8. Power off
9. Power on by pressing and holding the volume + button and the power button simultaneously.
10. The TAB should show a open box screen in a few seconds and after some time should turn back on to the main screen with new apps installed. You should see the market apps icon as well
11. Do the market fix remedy to see all applications in the market by steps below. I added an alternate market fix (if you don't see all apps)
a) Run market
b) Open settings->applications->system applications
c) Force close Google Services Framework, then Force Close Market
d Go back to Google Services Framework, then clear data
e) Run market and confirm you get an error
f) Reboot
g) Wait 2 minutes and try Market to get all applications
h) If this doesn't work, look at the directions again and make sure you follow them exactly
Alternate market fix Steps - I haven't tested this but looks like a few extra steps (You need Titanium Backup installed and have opened Market and surfed around a bit. Thanks to blackjaguar who pointed to this)
1. Settings->Applications->System applications->Market then Clear Cache (if any) then Force Stop
2. Go back one and then Google Services Framework then clear data then Force Stop
3. Go to home and open Titanium Backup
4. Select Backup/Restore tab
5. Select Google Services Framework
6. Select Wipe Data
7. Go to home and open market (it will error and close)
8. Reboot your tablet
9. Open Market and you will have full market
The above steps are detailed in another thread

Thanks to all the hard working Devs at XDA especially Roebeet and rothnic. A lot of work has gone in creating these files.

I just got my gtab from woot and basically wanted the same thing you did: the stock gtab plus the market. I followed your directions after spending the last week reading the massive amounts of posts on this forum. The only thing I did differently was installing CWM between steps 1 and 2, and repartitioning to the recommended 2048/0. It seemed like most people end up having to do that at some point. Your market fix however, didn't work at all for me. There's another fix posted by tsm26 that worked great for me. Its slightly different:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12563333&postcount=4400
The only app I still can't find in the market is Firefox, but luckily its available from ftp.mozilla.org.
EDIT: Just got the acore process problem, and had no contacts or /data/data folder at all. Used this fix and the problem is gone. Looks like it works for TnT Enhanced as well:

from other parts of the forum i went with the fix of using titanium backup to wipe data related to contacts (believe there were three separate items, contacts, contact synch, and something else). btw, I am running VEGAn 5.1.1.

I am going to update this with alternate market fix for anyone who is interested. Thanks.
Step 6 confused?
Just received my gtab and following your steps to install this upgrade, however after connecting gtab to laptop I see 4 folders at the root of "E:" when browsing through windows. I assume that "E:" is the sdcard directory and these folders are located in it. The folders I can see in this directory under the windows "E:" drive are - .android_secure, Android, DCIM & LOST.DIR. However if I browse to the "sdcard" folder using the file explorer on my gtab I don't see the .android_secure folder, but do see a folder called "update.zip", that I don't see when browsing the "E:" drive in windows. Now I am really confused? Do I delete or rename the "update.zip" directory currently residing in the "sdcard" directory on the gtab and then copy over the recover and update.zip folders that I just downloaded?
My tap ui version is 1.1-3389.
Are there any suggestions?
I think you need to disable the USB sharing and you will see the files.
This worked like a charm. I decided not to root and mod, at least for now, so getting the market is great. I didn't show the sdcard directory, but I had update and an empty recovery directory, so I just replaced them (after copying the old update.zip). It wiped out the photos and videos apps on my main screen, but I found some interesting replacements. And the market fix worked great too.
But I still can't find Words With Friends... Just checked the market from my laptop and it thinks it's not compatible with my device. Oh well.
I followed the instructions to the T and the market wont work... someone please help!!!!!
The first set of instructions did not work for me, but the alternate set did work. I now appear to have a full market. Awesome!
Just for the record, I am running the stock ROM updated to the latest VS release.
EDIT: Whoops, spoke too soon. No apps will download from the Market. When I try to download a free app, I get a "Starting download..." message but that's it. I'm also doing this at work... I think port 5228 might be blocked. Is this the reason? I will attempt from home tonight...
Help!

I've gotten to this point, but how long is some time, it has never turned back on to the main screen and now really won't boot at all, just goes to a blank screen and sit there.
Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated! Hope I haven't done something terribly wrong!
Spoke too soon?
Maybe I spoke too soon. Doing the market fix got me a lot more on the market, but there's still a lot of apps that I can't get. So many devs put their apps in market and nowhere else. Don't they realize that this is not itunes? (BTW, I've hit web sites that send me to itunes to download their apps...) How many other devices has google not approved for the market and are stuck like this? Even Firefox is undownloadable on my Android. Is that really the market fix or should I be able to access more?
So frustrating, but finally something seems to work
OK, new theory. Apparently I had to do the market fix twice. I also followed the video on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9817939&postcount=17
That's not the gtab, so it looks a little different in the menus, but the steps still worked. I guess it threw in an extra step of clearing cache on market and force stopping it before stopping google services framework. Well, Firefox doesn't show up in market, but so far everything else does. Now I have to try to remember everything I've been trying to download.
I had to do the Market fix twice, but that was no sweat.
Perfect, gunajay; thank you very much for your concise directions.

Everything is working great using this Enhancement Pack and Market Fix. My question is whether my gTab is still considered stock with these changes? The forum messages about the new firmware update all caution against applying it if you are running an alternate firmware from 3588. I don't know if I am under the Enhancement Pack and Market Fix scenario or not.
no sdcard - help please
Hello all, found this post and as a complete newbie I was excited to see what the GTAB could be transformed into. Not quite ready for custom ROMS so I figured I'd start with Clockworkmod and trying to install the standard android market.
Problem is when I hook up my gtab I don't see an "sdcard" folder... Anybody have any ideas why that would be? How do I work around it?
I have the following folders:
.android_secure
Android
clockworkmod
DCIM
download
kindle
LOST.DIR
Master
Music
Photos
recovery
Videos
update.rar
Thanks in advance for your help!
Will this work with 4349?
Does anyone know if gunajay's instructions will work with with Stock 4349 and Market?

[Q] RC1 - SDCard (lost media files) and other minor Issues

I recently flashed my Viewsonic UPC300-2-2 with VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition STABLE RC1 using ClockWorkMod 0.8 using this process.
I have been working with the gTablet for several days and most everything is working very well. Specifically, I can;
1. Play compressed MPEG-4 (FFmpeg) movies
2. Sync ITunes (with Market app) and play files with stock player
3. Use wireless WAN, wireless LAN (access files on home PC), and wired USB connections
4. Access Market and install several games, Adobe Flash 10.2, live wallpapers, widgets and more.
5. Open and Edit (but not create) Word, Excel, Powerpoint and PDF type files
6. Download and read Market books
7. Very fast application launch and execution
However, I have had problems with the SDcard2 slot and a few other areas, as these observations indicate;
1. CWM skips SD backup - When running CWM backup, near the end of the backup process, I see the message 'SD-EXT not found', 'skipping backup'. I don't know if this is referring to the USB slot or to the SDcard2 slot.
2. Formatting SD corrupts system partition - when inserting my 4GB SDcard2, the system didn't initially recognize it and recommended formatting. The same card was NTFS formatted and had just been viewed on an XP machine, so I know it was working. At any rate, nothing was on the card, so I let the gTablet format it. I continued to use the gTablet, but when I ultimately rebooted, I could not boot and saw only the new animated ROM logo screen (the first thing you see on boot) flash over and over endlessly. I tried clearing cache, clearing user settings, and even reinstalling RC1. Nothing worked. However, when I repartitioned (2048,0), then the system began working again and I went back to reinstalling all my applications and re-personalizing the system.
3. SDcard2 files are being erased. I can't be certain when this occurs, but I've seen three occasions; after using CWM to backup, after rebooting in general, and after performing disk operations (create/delete folders, copy files) using a file manager. Note the files only are erased and not the containing folder - answer; I found a post to add an empty file called ".nomedia" to the root of any folder containing media. I did this by creating a new file using ES File Manager on the tablet. This worked in that I no longer lose files, but it didn't work in that Gallery and my Video players no longer can find these files. I also read that copying media files from SDcard to SDcard2 would prevent lost files. This is not the case. Copying media files from anywhere to SDcard2 will result in loss upon boot (unless .nomedia file resides on SDcard2).
4. Files readable after SD Hot remove - SDcard2 cannot be removed without unmounting (via settings, storage). This doesn't cause system failures, but what I observed is that the SDcard2 contents, after card is removed, are still accessible. I can view/play files that are no longer there. I assume there is a cache for the SDcard2 that is responsible for this behavior.
5. SD insert on Standby crashes system - SDcard2 cannot be inserted when gTablet is in Standby. If I do, then I cannot resume with one short press to the power button. The system instead performs a full reboot.
6. Screen lock turns into a reboot - Standby cannot resume after long periods, even if plugged in to AC. I've seen as little as a couple hours later, the system will not resume and must be fully rebooted.
7. Sound levels are low. When playing music or video with the stock players, I need to turn the volume to max to be heard through the built in speakers.
8. Force stop message is displayed for certain applications when the gTablet is resumed from Standby. I have seen this for Google Maps and Words with Friends only so far, if these programs are left running when the gTablet is put into Standby. Thoughts are this might be related to the wireless connection? - answer; this not related to Market problem, as I originally thought. I did several changes; I loaded VTL.Launcher 1.6.2, set wireless to never off during screen saver (advanced wireless settings), and installed the latest PERSHOOT kernel. The launcher may have solved the forced stop, but since I cannot duplicate the problem, I cannot be sure. Since it works now, I'll let that sleeping dog lie.
9. Gallery displays duplicate icons for the same file, after I copy a file over the USB link to either SDcard or SDcard2. If I try to delete an icon within Gallery, the source file is deleted, but Gallery continues to display the 2nd icon. The icon continues to display the photo miniature, and when selected, will display the photo full size. I assume this photo is cached somewhere since the source was deleted? - answer; I found a post here to clear media cache & reboot; go to Menu> Applicaions> Manage Applications> All> Media Storage> Clear Data. Reboot.
10. Clock 'option bar' is not visible. When I select the clock icon from the 'app drawer' (all application icons) view off home page, then the Clock application displays date and time and weather full page on the screen with an option bar at the bottom. However, these options aren't accessible because the home page task bar is presented on top of this, covering half of the clock option bar horizontally. It looks like the clock options are alarm, tunes, and home.
11. Button Registration - Sometimes (frequently) finger-to-screen registration isn't working and buttons do not respond - answer; I've found that gojimi has a tool that is much, much easier than calibration.ini. Find his tool here.
12. Command response sluggish - Sometimes (rarely) the gTablet seems to stall when responding to button pushes before application launches.
I've read other posts enough to suspect the SDcard2 isn't working on RC1, but was working perfectly for prior ROM versions. In my opinion, the problem seems to be cache related for this SDcard2, and something the OS does to media files only upon boot.
1. Normal behavior
2. NTFS is not supported by android
3. The only fix is .nomedia and yes it tells android not to look in those directories for media so it won't erase them. It's a bug
4. What?
5. Don't do that
6. This is a well known bug maybe solved with a custom kernel
7. Depends on the rom and the video player
8. Standby on tablet is different that a phone. Standby is a deep sleep not just screen off
9. Reboot
10. don't know
11. search "calibration.ini"
12. see answer 11
In gingerbread the internal sdcard is "emmc" and the external is "sdcard". On Froyo internal in sdcard and external is sdcard2. Some gingerbread roms have made the cards act like froyo however
Thanks, I will follow your references and report back to original post what I find out as an answer for others.
Also,
2. the NTFS was reformatted by Android to (FAT32??) whatever Android requires. The real problem I saw was that when formatting SDcard2, the reformatting process corrupted the system partition. The gTab still operated until I rebooted, then I experienced boot loops, and had to repartition.
4. Exactly! But, I'll follow your advice for #5
6. I'll search too, but if you have time, can you explain the differences in function between Kernel, ROM, OS and Hardware? I'm thinking of a system architecture diagram/flow or description.
9. Yes, if I reboot, the ghost icons are removed. However, if I again copy a photo from my XP machine over USB link to gTab, to a 'pictures' folder at the root of SDcard, then Gallery again shows two Icons groups for each picture.
2. Don't format sdcard in tablet. I just don't trust it.
6. When you install a rom you are installing the OS and the kernel. You can install custom kernels on top of that to replace the stock kernel. Try Pershoots latest and make sure you use the correct version...froyo and gingerbread.
9. I call it an Android bug. It needs a reboot to flush the cache

all the links i came across to upgrade to ICS are all 'UPDATE.APP', no zip files.
Huawei doesnt have it on their site anymore. I was hoping you could mirror it or something.
BTW i tried rooting using the method for the U8800, does not work.
hello, we got Root, I can not insert a link (no rights), copy the post:
1. Set the wood on your computer.
2. We enter the engineering menu of the body. (*#*# 2,846,579 #*#*) further ProjectMenu - Background setting-Log setting - Logswitch - LOG on - turn on, return to the ProjectMenu - Damp & Log include all items (total 4 points). Exit and restart ProjectMenu of the body.
3. Connecting to a PC the "Settings" - "Applications" - "Unknown sources" - turn on, then "Quick" - disable, then "Development" - include "Debug on USB" and "left on"
4. On the PC, disable antivirus, run SuperOneClickv2.3.1. and in the upper left corner click "ROOT".
5. On the pop-up windows give the "OK", a window with a proposal where a register just turn it off.
6. The ending of the whole operation will be a few lines (about half the screen) at the end of the last word "OK"
7. Turn off SuperOneClickv2.3.1, then "Options" - "Applications" - "Development" - turn off the "Debug on USB" and "left on" turn on "Quick", disconnected from the PC, restart the body.
8. If done correctly then open desks and one of them will see the icon "Sueruser" versiya3.0.7.
9. Return to its original condition and value of LOG on Damp & Log
PS
A small addition to the previous post, namely, after the root note two folders on the SD card and bugreports sleeplog. Remove the contents. If they continue to be replenished, then go to step 2 do the engineering menu, and then claim 9. Restart the body, clean folder on your SD card.

Yea I think I my have found one..... Waiting for it to finish downloading if its the one we both seek I will post a link.
EDIT: trying this one now -
1.)Download the bootloader menu tool - recovery-v8.img 5.5 MB megauploadDOTcom/?d=GN3NFEWS
2.)Download this zip 2.3.6 Sorry I can't post links in my first few posts apparently. pm me will email link then someone with more posts can post link.
3.)Turn phone off, Hold down both the volume up AND the volume down keys without letting go also then press and hold the power button. After a while your whole screen should go PINK. your usb cable should already be plugged in and this should mount a usb drive on your computer that you can access. Open it. There will be a file in there called recovery.img , rename it to recovery.old, then copy the recovery-v8.img to this drive. Rename it to recovery.img. Pull out the battery and re-insert.
Boot the phone by pressing and holding only the volume up key and the power button. This should load you into the new recovery image. From here you can load the .zip file from the menu.
Phew.
Its good to have a working phone.
PS its a custom rom thats already rooted and has root explorer installed. NICE! Oh ad you can install google apps from google. just google gapps-ics-20111125-2.zip

If you have 2.3.6 firmware your phone will be NOT recognized on your PC by pink screen !!! By reason of lock on 2.3.6.
You can install Chinacom 2.3.5 firmware and use this procedure(pink screen) again,and will be OK.after that you can install any custom rom also 2.3.6 !

Root Hauwei U8860 with ICS and Gapps
So I gave up on Gingerbread. I am now running ICS with Gapps.
I did it by the following steps.
1.) install the ICS demo provided by huawei
2.) Replace the recovery.img with the v8 one via the pink screen method mentioned in my previous post.
3.) download the gapps ics .zip to your sdcard and rename it to update.zip in the root of sdcard.
4.) Boot to recovery menu by holding power button and volume up button, then slect update zip, then chose the update.zip. once completed reboot.
5.) when you boot into ics login to google talk with your account first via 3g data not wifi data. then gmail.
6.) now market should work!
Also you can root ICS easy with any rooting tools. I used RootThat-v1.0.0
PS I emailed/pm'd the gingerbread rom to all who requested it. I found it unstable though.
!
no bro.newest version of ICS for Honor is with kernel 3.0.8 ! is pretty good but still not stable and on testing.it is rootable also with oneclickroot not only over pink screen.link what i give you that is very stable version of 2.3.6 but not rootable if you have "bugreport" inside phone,if not it is possible to root
regards

Problem with camera

Hello all! :victory:
Until now, the problems with the camera. Writes "Unknown error" and everything on it. What I've tried:
1. Formatted the memory card and ran the camera - 0 Effect
2. Folder of photos renamed to exclude tables in your gallery
3. Flash 2.1 and to follow the instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12061644 , the program copies all the files on the sdcard, then as I understand it fills them somewhere, and then writes the device: not found, many many lines, the phone restarts and the camera icon does not appear in the download mode.
4. Flash 1.6. camera works without mistakes (2.1 almost no mistakes, yet there are such errors, we have to restart the phone)
5. To the point decided to install ADB, thought due to the fact that it is not - will not install.
6. Disassemble the unit disconnects the camera and connected - the effect of zero
7. Blocked the bootloader by hand and updated through SEUS Pro, also for 0
+
8. I copy files manually and run init.es209ra.rc. - don't working =(
But there is a joke - a third-party application photographs, but does not remove. Yesterday needed a short video ... epic. Help please) has long been tormented with it, since 2012. The new module is not offered, it is necessary to finish off the old, if he does not come out - then buy, where to go...
