Hey Guys, Somehow I have managed to delete the app for my generic camera app that comes with my galaxy s phone.
I do have lots of other great camera apps but Im really keen on this one and cant find it anywhere.
Any help to find the.apk or the name of the app would be great.
ok not sure about the stock app but sgs tools will allow you to install a couple of modded ones including one that is the stock version but will allow you to disable goe tagging (which I cannot believe the stock app doesn't allow kinda pissed me off when I first realised that) and also take pictures when in call or low battery scenarios.
It MIGHT even reinstall the stock app but I am not 100% sure on that one

I am currently running the cm6 posted by darchstar on 8/15. I was wondering if there was anyway to enable time stamps for the photos taken with the included camera app.
of course i know i can download on of many camera apps from the market but since i don't need anything more than a time stamp, and honestly its not something i can't live without. i don't want to install another app just for something so trivial.
The default 2.1 HTC camera has a time stamp option. It works -- I just tried it. But it's in Sense-based ROMs
I see you're on CM6...so I don't know if you could just simply push or install the HTC camera via adb and have it work on AOSP? Not sure if it would need any of the Sense framework files for it to work or not. I feel like I remember seeing an earlier Sense-less ROM (I think Ic3Rom) using the HTC Camera just fine. If you try it, nandroid backup first of course.
Well I guess you can ignore my previous post. It appears that won't work -- this thread asked the very same question and the answer was no: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=757422
yea i tried pushing it already thought i would ask if there was a work around oh well its too good to give up just for a time stamp on a photo.
It sucks. Im rooted, but still stock rom, and it crashes my phone all the time. It just stops playing music (and then loses memory as to which playlist/artist it was in, as well as current song)
Is there a more stable app for media playback? Or, what can I do to stabilize my baby.
As I said, I am rooted, have LPP installed, root explorer and that's about it. Im not oc'd or uc'd, and I have renamed/disabled lots of the trash APK's ..
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Depending on the .apk's you've deleted it could possibly be one of those but I remember the stock music app gave difficulties and would close or act unstable so unless you know for a fact you haven't touched anything related to the music app then it's just something you'll have to deal with until you install a different music app(google D1 version; basically the same thing) or switch to a custom ROM with a different app (usually google D1 version).
Hope that helps.

Does anyone have the name of the d1 version? Or, maybe a different app? And yes, I'm 100% sure I didn't touch anything related to that app
I believe the apk is MusicGoogle.apk I think you can find it in one of the 'blurless' ROMs Epic 2.5 has it. I would just download the rom and unzip it into a folder and search it for the .apk in the system/app folder (on your computer) then out it in the sdcard and install it from there.
See if that works.

Thanks man, ill give it a shot when I get home.
Update on the issues: handset sms (the app) appears to be the culprit. I don't know how or why, after uninstalling it (I had a hunch based on text receipt and crash/reset issues) I no longer seem to have issues.
I currently own a ATT S4, it's rooted with Wanam Xposed Framework, Nova launcher, Stock Nexus messaging app, etc... And I must admit I really like this phone a lot, after having an Nexus 4, and Galaxy Nexus before that. The battery life on this S4 is freaking amazing, easily 50% better than my Nexus 4. I get 5h -5.5h On Screen time every day, and I really like the 1080p screen, very beautiful. And this phone is plenty fast for me, no lag with Nova set to "Faster than Light"
TouchWiz is pretty much hidden away with all the other .apk's I have installed. But the one thing I HATE on TW is specifically the Dialer and Contacts. Swiping to make a phone call is ****ing stupid, and not being able to swipe from the contacts to the phone dialer is another mistake.
And pressing the Phone app, or the Contacts app, are the only two apps, that have a slight pause or delay, not really lag, just a pause till it opens up. No other app does that, everything else opens up in a blink of an eye.
But other than that, I do like TW, and the other cool features it has, and I use. But would love to find a stock Nexus Dialer and Contact .apk, but not sure those would ever work on a TW phone ? And I can't flash any zips, due to being on MF3 firmware I can only do .apk's with Root Explorer. Is there something similar to the stock Nexus dialer/contacts on the Play Store ? And something that is not laggy or worse than even the stock TW ? Some of the Play Store might look like a stock Nexus app, but are actually slower, and worse.
I found this app on the Play Store, and it seems very much like a stock nexus dialer, pretty quick, and light
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dexetra.dialer&hl=en
Checked my Greenify settings, this 'dialapp' is running big time in the background, with lots of wake times. Looks I need to delete it now. Dang, can't I just install the stock Nexus dialer from an older 4.2.2 build, and delete the Samsung TW dialer ?

Try exdialer and contacts that's what I use and love it. You can change the interface to make it look like how you want. Try it out https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.modoohut.dialer

I tried both apps, Dialerapp and ExDialer, and they were good, but still have TouchWiz running behind them, when pressing to hang up, it shows the TW interface there, or some other areas still show TW. I thought these apps would erase and get rid of TW 100%, guess not.
I suppose I could try to delete all Samsung Phone / Dialer .apk in /system with Root Explorer ? Would love to be able to push a 4.2.2 based CM10.1 phone.apk, but I think that might screw things up ?

Find a guide to try flashing the zip. I think either you would have to change the script of your device and edit it or flash the zip via safestrap. I usually look into the international theme forum they have a bunch of great ports that work for our phone also.

was there any solution????
I really dislike the default Samsung gallery app and I'm wondering if there's a way to specifically make it so Quickpic can be accessed through the stock camera app by pressing the preview button in the top left corner. Freezing/disabling the Gallery app does NOT prompt you to select a default gallery app when pressing the preview button.
Instead, it prompts this message:
(Because I can't post links to external images, see the first attachment.)
I should probably add that there are no permissions for gallery to open as the default gallery, so that's not the issue. (Quickpic is set as the default).
(Because I can't post links to external images, see the second attachment.)
Is there any possible way to get the stock camera app to use Quickpic as the default gallery? I'm rooted with no custom ROMs, just default TouchWiz.
Thanks in advance!
Nope

If you're rooted and have the Xposed framework installed, try this xposed module:

I'm sure he would've preferred that answer when the last reply in this thread was made.
A year ago.
Please don't revive old, dead threads.
I'm not posting this for the sake of OP, I'm posting it for anybody who asks the same question, gets directed to this topic by google, and gets disappointed by the NO answer - while in reality the answer is YES it's possible.
And by the way I've had the same question several years ago, when I had a Samsung Galaxy S, then again more than a year ago, when I got an S3. Didn't hear about Xposed then, so I just accepted "it's not possible" as an answer. So even a year later, the answer is still relevant and might be useful.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work with my SGS3. From my understanding you should uninstall/freeze the default gallery app and next time you try to open the gallery from the Camera app, the phone should ask which app should be used to view the picture.

I tried freezing. It won"t work either. My problem is getting to albums from the Contacts app, when I need to add a picture to a contact. If I freeze the Gallery there will be no Image option in the Contact Photo window opened for selection of the photo source for a contact. It means I cannot get into my albums for photo selection. And since my contacts photo album is organized by name, I am having hard times when looking for a right photo for my contacts. QuickPic could solve this...
Don"t understand how this so basic and obvious feature is missing in such a complex and long time running on millions devices OS?

I feel your pain, I have similar idea. But maybe the blame is misdirected, the Contacts app comes from Samsung, doesn't it? They made some of their apps too tightly integrated with each other, not giving the user the flexibility to choose the gallery app. I'm planning to try another ROM (e.g. CyanogenMod) to get a look at the pure Android experience.

Does anybody have the stock camera app apk? I really don't want to have to reflash my phone as it is set up how I like it and am really liking the stock+root - debloated w/ launcher setup as of now. The problem is that the stock camera isn't working, once it goes on, it becomes unresponsive and won't take pictures.
I have been using the Google camera, but I am missing features of the stock one and always prefer to use the camera app that was created around the hardware.
I was wondering if anybody had a link to the stock camera app so I could reflash it and replaced the old, broken one. I have tried to clear data and it still gives me the same issues.
Thanks!
