After using CyanogenMod versions 9 through 10.2 I made the decision to switch to SlimRom and I am now running SlimKat 4.4.2 Build 4.1. During my entire time with CM, I had an easy time working with ported photosphere enabled camera apk's. However, upon the move to SlimRom, more specifically, the update to KitKat, the photosphere mode of the camera apk I had been using for several months was not working. Although I could take pictures with every other mode of the camera, whenever I switched to photosphere mode, the viewing screen would turn black, with all the rest of the UI working as normal. When I go to move it around, I can still see the dots for lining up the first photo, but it won't even let me take photos with this blacked out screen. I've attached a photo of the app in photosphere mode for better clarification, and I'd really appreciate if someone could help me out here.
Thanks in advance!
I have Slimkat as well. I do know the included Camera does not have Photosphere. If you are using a different app then please post a link so I can give it a whirl and post my findings.

Yup got it. I will take a look and post back. Have you ever tried the Google Edition Camera ?
EDIT - I tried the Camera app from
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/a...e/NewCameraApp[2].apk
It worked pretty well for me. I am on Slim-d2lte-4.4.2.build.4.4-WEEKLY-3771and KT747 Kernel.
Weird...that was the one that started me on my search for new photosphere apks...
I tried installing the GE one and saw your edit, tried that one again, without luck on either of them so I tried another full wipe, updated to that latest weekly and after a few reboots and system app changes, the GE one appears to work for me. No black screen, the images stitch well and I can view them afterwards, seems like its back to my expectations. Thank you very much.
Glad its working for you. Please see the note on Slim Rom's home page. Google has release a new Camera app. That's working wonders for me.
I will also try that.

I'm running into this exact same issue on the 2014-04-23-d2lte LiquidSmooth nightly using the new Google Camera. I clean flashed that and installed PA GApps Full + Keyboard. I wasn't running into this issue on PacMan Rom though, so I'm not sure what the issue is.

Hi,
I've created a flashable zip based on the files extracted by dmmarck (it's all his doing! I'm just packaging it). Just flash from CWM or TWRP.
Everything should work: regular pics, photosphere, gallery and editor. On my device, it all coexists nicely with my existing camera and gallery.
Edit: just noticed that garner had updated his own thread with more things working. It seems his archive contains fewer files, which is great if you want to save space. If it's not working for you, though, try this version.
Thanks cyansmoker!
For me garner's zip didnt work. Yours did!
Trying this out now! Thanks!

Anyone having heat issues with the new cam?
I've heard claims that, yes, it can run your phone pretty hot.
Not sure what it's doing.
Works perfect!

I just noticed that JB 4.2 camera does not have some features what ICS/JB camera has...
Is there any way to get JB 4.1.2 camera for an second camera without another gallery app? ICS camera ("+" version from play store) does not have good features what JB 4.1.2 camera has! :/

Thanks a lot, I was trying to download the zip from another thread but it just keep disconnecting and restarting. this is working perfectly.:thumbup:
Currently using dark paranoid 2.25.1 tablet mode and this camera app working much better and faster than the stock 4.1.2 camera. Loved that photosphere shots.

the ONLY problem I am having with the photosphere is that it seems to snap pictures when the blue dot isnt directly center of the target. Its close to but not directly center which leads to most of my pictures being "off" from one another.. I wonder if theres a way to slow down the speed or pause it for a second so the blue dot lines up correctly

In my case, I found out that actually slowing down while panning with my phone made things better. I guess my phone was having a hard time figuring out what I was aiming it at.
i've tried to slow it down also (this isnt the panorama selection but the photosphere), but once the blue dot to line up the next shot gets close to the target recticle center where it should be(might be a better word), it snaps the next picture before even getting in the center if that makes sense
I get force close when opening both camera and gallery app. Hmm.. not sure what's wrong though.
I have a cwm backup, but is there other way to restore old camera back? maybe someone has the original apk for camera and gallery?
if not I'll just do a full restore.

I've tried the other zip and this one. neither seems to work for me. i only see the normal camera and gallery apps. i am using BAMF current rom. I do see a gallery2.apk, gallery4, and googlegallery. any idea what's going on? is there a way to create a shortcut to the new ones?
nvm, fixed it, renamed other apks, changed perm and rebooted...

I believe that as long as you delete /system/app/GalleryGoogle.apk and reboot your phone, you should have access to your old camera.
Of course it is different from ROM to ROM...

rename the gallery2.apk to gallery.bak, then try to install. I dont see a gallery4 on mine (current Bamf), just a GALAXY4, which is a lwp and googlegallery is what the new one is (I think).
Will it work in Galaxy s3?

I have the 4.2 camera installed and successfully captured a photosphere photo. Now, how do I view it on the device? I can open the photo in Gallery but it's all crammed on the screen. I'm supposed to be able to pan around like in Google Street View, right?
Is there a specific version of Gallery that I need?
Have you tried using QuickPic? I don't know if it will work as i don't have the new camera, but it might
You need to view it in the gallery that came with the 4.2 camera. When you use that gallery, there are extra "buttons" to push that allow you to interact with it. I normally use quickpic as well, but it doesn't give those options.
When viewing the photo in your 4.2 gallery, there should be a button on the bottom of the photo you press which enables to the photo to look as though on google street view.
I see that button but it doesn't do anything. It lights up to let me know I tapped it, but then the gallery crashes. Should I re-flash the 4.2 camera? Or can someone point me to a download link for just the gallery?
I appreciate the help - you guys are great!
Side note: if I upload the photos to Google+ I can view them from a PC. Looks pretty sweet.
But I want to show them to my parents next week and they don't have internet so I really need to get these working on my phone.
the gallery and camera are included in the same package. i don't believe you can just flash separately. i would just re-flash again, and fix permissions. then it's the 2nd gallery in your app list that you need to use.
wasnt aware that you could do that with google+. maybe i actually have a reason to use it now. thanks.

If you're really wanting to get the photosphere to work, you may want to try a full wipe and then flash the 4.2 GAPPS
Galaxy S3 AOKP 4.1.2 JB 11/12/12 Build
Task650 Underwear kernel. (Conservative/Noop)
I was able to resolve this by downloading the camera from a different source. No need to do a full wipe or install any of the other gapps.

Hey guys, I'm running Jellybam 5.1 on my Bell Note 2. However, I've run into a rather annoying problem. The camera doesn't work! It'll take a picture ,but then it'll freeze and then flash 10 seconds later. When I go to view the photo in the gallery, it appears blank and then crashes. Also, it seems as though the quality of the jellybean camera is inferior to the stock camera on touchwiz. Any solutions?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

that happens to me too. also, i have problems on phone calls too.
i dont have a solution to that, but i suggest you to switch to AOKP or CM10.1 rom. save a lot of trouble.
Its the aosp 4.2 camera right? I believe if u turn off the flash it shud work ok.....not sure cuz im on a tw based rom but give it a shot

Turn off the flash or just press the blue button on the screen to take the pic instead of pressing the screen first.
Hello to all,
Im new to the forums and rooting, so I am still learning, please bear with me.
I have SEARCHED this for days and days, and still have no answer. Please don't flame, if you know where to find the answer please direct me to a link
With that said:
My dad has a SGH- T989 (Tmobile Galaxy S2).
His issues:
1) phone didn't receive calls all the time
2) when factory camera app opens all images were fuzzy or staticy
3) images of static when taken didn't save.... random icon app shows up in gallery
4) If you used Skype - camera was fine
SO I knew it couldn't be the camera itself.... so i decided to root the phone and update firmware/software and see what happens
I used CWM, then Jedi Mind tricks V6
phone seems fixed, camera screen seems fixed (no more fuzzy), but..... when you take a pic the image is a generic icon still. See pic I took with my GS4 attached.
any idea whats going on?
I have read that 4.2.x may have this issue.... should I try a different ROM?
Thanks for any direction

Try a ROM that is 4.1.x. I had a similar problem where a lot of my pictures didn't show up, so I switched to a different ROM and it seemed to have worked. I'm on Infamous right now, and it works fine. Or you can try JediJelly, which is similar to JMT, but is updated and works rather well.

No I haven't but ill try that now
I really love the stock camera app that is pre installed on the Find 7. I did find it sad that once I tried installing a new ROM like AOSP or Cyanogenmod, I lost the camera app with special features. Features as 120 FPS or GIF Animation etc are all gone. Is there a way to return the app back to such ROM or is there a similiar app that does the same kind of tricks?
Normally stock cameras won't work on any custom roms, there's dependencies and blobs from stock that would need to be ported over, It would be awesome if someone would be able to do this, the stock camera app was pretty sweet.
I would love to have this feature, I like the Google camera app, but it's nowhere near as powerful as the colorOS one.
Subscribed to this thread... Simply to expect some very kind developer would be kind enough to port Oppo Stock Camera App to be able to run on AOSP custom ROM or on CM12 with Lollipop...

German but they write it gave the camera app. You must download the file and install first CommonCamera2.apk and then OppoCamera2.apk.
I have not test it.

Almost impossible to work it out for AOSP.

Exactly the reason why am not flashing other ROMs as the camera feature is important as it is being used for work and leasure. I tried so many ROMs since my S2 days, however, after weeks of experiencing the Camera of the Find7a, and comparing it with CM and other android , the Oppo version really nailed it for me. Have you tried the super macro? Lately, this was included in the COS V2.0.5Beta.
You can try this now on AOSP builds, it works on my Find7a CM12 as the OnePlus One is a "hardware copy" of our Find 7!

My situation is, I can take using ultrahd but when I look at the picture size, it was only 3-5 mb max which to me that it's not working , on colour os rom, it was usually around 9mb. And the picture itself is much sharper. For the slow shutter, it can go up to 30+seconds,but in reality it's only around 2 seconds. The picture end up really dark.
oh yeah, the mod and plugins need an update to suppor the new cm/oppo camera blobs including it's HAL for it to work on newer roms
