Found it, ill try it out

OK that doesn't do what I need, I'm just trying to take a screen shot of a video.
Like off of YouTube or a video I recorded

Try frame grabber. It's 2.99 in the market. It works for vids localy but for streaming I can't say.
Hope this helps.

You can grab just one frame. Hence the name.

That works!

anti theft app that takes picture of assailant??

a friend of mine has this for iphone. basically, when an incorrect pin is entered on the lock screen the app displays a custom message the user inputs and uses the front facing camera to take a picture of the person who is using the phone! really cool. any idea if anything like this exists for droid?

Something like AndroidLost maybe
Camera
AndroidLost can take pictures with the front facing camera in case the phone is stolen.

it's not ICS ready yet, this feature works, but not under ICS, yet, the next update will fix it.
source: communication w/ the dev.

I emailed the dev and they emailed me a beta apk that works on ICS

Thanks for enlightening me about this super app! For just a few bucks you can remotely lock and wipe up to 5 phones, take pics, track the location on Gmaps etc. Simply amazing!

Great recommendation. Just installed the ICS beta...works great and I'll be buying the app.

So....will the app automatically send the picture to your email or it requires you to select "auto upload to Google+"? I hope not the second option cuz I HATEEE the way Google+ not letting us deleting the uploaded pictures from our gallery.

I don't make a habit of complaining about permissions. But why do we basically have to give this app control of everything, Skynet style.

i know where is your question coming from - but i have to tell you that you would be surprised how many apps are accessing the same info as this one is. i dont wanna call names - but titanium back up - for example and much more. try LBE privacy guard and find out. almost all GAMELOFT games are asking for emei and even sms log or call log mate/location as well - so i think it will make no difference and if you wanna be able locate your device remotely or even make a pic you have to givea permision to the app providing such a service.
you have to live with it or not use the special "protection"

I loaded this and it works fine on my Galaxy Nexus. The only thing funny is that the pictures seem to be rotated 90 degrees clockwise from the way the phone was being held.

The version of cerberus I used with my GN has an option where the screen goes all white and then snaps a picture with the front camera as soon as the screen is touched.
I also setup Cerberus to email everything to an account that isn't setup on the phone so if the phone is gone, the person holding it can't delete the emails.

Any idea when the ICS version will come out officially?

Good stuff! I was looking for something like this! Another app you guys may want to try is an app that locks down your apps with a password or pattern. I havent installed one on my Gnex yet but I used one on my EVO (actually, come to think of it, it was native to MIUI).

Works fine so far, but seems to be missing the HDR option.
Plus, Photosphere seems to be bugged, most of the panoramas i try to shoot come out pretty borked. I have the impression that it doesnt actually save more than 3 captured images... but maybe its just me.

BUG: Opening an MMS picture with the gallery in this APK, results in a blank picture, and mostly crashes the gallery app.

both download links are dead

New google camera

I found this

Thx ! Works fine on my Nexus 4

- Does photo sphere work aftr installing it?
- Is root required?
- Also, its written on various blogs that it will replace existing gallery.. so do we need to back up the existing images/videos etc?

Can we install this alongside pur stock camera app like a regular apk, or do we have to install it as a system app and replace the old one?

Yes, photo sphere works. Root is best because if you install as apk it will install to data/app, so you will need to go the system/app and backup & delete or rename as bak the previous version. Existing images and videos are still there.

I have not installed it yet as I am at work. I saw it posted on the forum and they all said it worked good so I thought I'd share

I installed it from someone who posted it in another thread on XDA earlier this morning.
Liking the improvements to both the camera and the gallery and at least to me the camera doesn't seem as sluggish as before.

Also, the fact that you can snap the shot with the volume rocker is sweet!!

Installed but uninstalled. PhotoSphere didn't work correctly. It was not able to read the gyro sensor hence the angels were odd.

What baseband/radio are you using? I found that version 33 and below break some of the sensors on both this new version and the current 4.2 camera software.

same on my phone, stock rom/kernel.
it takes only one hemisphere, definitely not getting the sensors right.
the rest of the dots that should be on the other hemisphere, just overlay the already taken pics.

YouTube Vanced - auto brightness

Hope everyone is having a good day.
Does anyone know of a way to tweak YouTubeVanced so that it gets a similar brightness optimisation setting as those under Video Enhancer? Currently I can't seem to find any way to add apps to VE or an auto brightness increase setting in YTVanced either and have to manually increase the brightness for videos.

This should work. View attachment 4835121

Did some investigation as I saw that YT Vanced still didn't go full brightness as consistently as Video Player or Netflix. Turns out YTV Full Brightness is only invoked for specific HDR enabled videos (it does say so in the description). What would've been nicer is if all YTV videos got Full Brightness for all videos incl non-HDR, as how Video Enhancer setting is treating the other 2 apps.
