I am running MIUI Has anyone found the power button/low battery camera hack available for MIUI? I have looked high and low for it but can't find it for Vibrant MIUI.
Does it exist?
I have tried to install it from SGS Tools but the install fails saying it can't find busybox. Busybox is installed (I use other apps that require it). After five tries I downloaded the busybox installer from the market and tried that as well but had the same result with the SGS Tools.
I also tried installing the camera apk itself but it won't install. I tried flashing it via CWM but it will not take that way either.
Has anyone successfully installed the hacked camera on MIUI 1.6.17? I use my camera more than anything else and having the power button hack is critical for me. I was shocked MIUI didn't have it out of the box as I was coming from Bionix NextGen and expected something so popular to be a standard feature.
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
I got GT-I9000 on 2.2.1 / J9000XXJVE / Dark_Core_1.0 running Darky's v9.5.XWJS8 (Voodoo 6 kernel), Ex4 lagfix active.
My problem is that non of the 3rd party camera apps, like Camera360, Vignette etc are working. When I start the apps they ether FC, or show me info about the camera driver problem (screens attached). Stock camera apk is working flawless, and no problem with it at all. If someone be so kind, and help me find a solution. I really don't want to flash software again :/

I would also suggest going into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications and clearing the data for every application you are having trouble with.
If that doesn't help, perhaps you should reflash your kernel or try a new kernel to see if that solves the driver initialization issue.
Thank you for reply. Unfortunately changing kernel didn't helped. I switch to speedmod, and the same problem occurs. Think I'm gonna flash whole rom later today. The funny thing is that only camera-based apps are not working. Oh well

did you delete system email.apk before? had a similar problem with barcoo once and solved it by reinstalling the original mail.apk. have read it several times that this seems to cause force closes in third party camera apps in some way
Return back Email.apk, if you removed it.
Thank You all. That was the problem in 99%. I've remove the email apk, but didn't have the chance to restore it manually, I've just reinstalled the rom.
ok i read mostly , or should be majority of SGS 2 with G version having camera failure problem..
i am one of the G version user having camera failure problem and its kinda frustrated
how ever i solve my problem after google works and asking around..
the tricks to overcome camera failure issue is by replacing your phone camera.apk
the first thing you need to do is root (which give you power to modify your phone system)
here is the link for rooting your G version.

I'm NOT going to take any responsibility if you permanently bricked your phone or your girlfriend/boyfriend breakup with you because of this . My experience say only people who don't read and don't follow the step properly will brick your phone..
ok, after root then what? you can solve it by follow this few simple step.
1.download this root browser via android market in your phone
Link
or any browser you prefer, but must support root so it can modify data in your system..
2.download this
http://www.mediafire.com/?8x8z9tlw8f4xxox
3.Open your root browser and browse to /system/app, and move your 'Camera.apk' and 'Camera.odex' (for use as a backup) or you just delete it
(cz its rubbish that cause camera fail, it cant do the job so throw it to thrash bin
Don't worry, if you really deleted and want back here is the stock rubbish camera.apk
Stock Camera SGS2
4.Copy the camera.apk that you downloaded and place it in /system/app
5.Close your Root Browser and run the camera.
6.Tadaaa you are done
Try reboot if it don't works..
or
If the camera fails to run or shortcut is missing. Go back to /system/app with your root browser and try to install it. DO NOT DO SO IF YOU SUCCESS run the camera

Sgs2 i9100g camera problem resolved
Guys, I think I have got to the root of the problem. I too was getting the "Camera Failed" problem on my SGS2 I9100G for quite some time. I tried everything to no avail. Then I uninstalled all applications which were sharing the resources with camera, those were the Flashlight apps. I rebooted the phone & since then I have not been getting the problem. I hope this solution should work for most of us. Anyhow guys please try this & let us know ur experiences.
Link to stock camera is dead. Could someone re-upload it?
Thanks in advance!

Maybe, but you'll need to get camera app for I91000, not G.
Also, did you try to install camera firmware update? To get it search for "camera firmware" in Samsung Apps on your phone.
No camera firmware in Samsung App

When I try to install it says Application not installed
Hi,
I can't seem to install Google's new uploaded camera. It seems many people have this problem as well (at least in the Nexus 4 section which is my device as well).
The error I got was "package file was not signed correctly...". That was when I had the photosphere camera so I deleted it's .apk and .sh files. After that I got the error "application already exists". Deleting the AOSP camera doesn't seem to help as well.
Any suggestions?
P.S this seems to be a custom rom problem, for example Slimkat users had this problem as well and the developers had to release some fix for it.
flashing the PA new google camera addon module, does not permit to upgrade / install the google camera from play store, it says that is not possible because of a wrong signature, then if i remove with root file explorer from /system/app and i try to install from market it says that application is already present, do someone know how to solve that? i'm on OmniROM
Solved...
Install apk from here:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/04/16/breaking-google-releases-stock-camera-app-to-the-play-store/
Worked for me without having to delete anything.
yes but the apk let you install mat it's not connected to google play store so if any upgrade exit you won't be able to installa automatically
Yep that is a problem... But you can just install the new apk again when it's updated that's all.
Is the still no solution for the problem? I'm experiencing it as well on my Nexus 4 running PA 4.4 rom
Use modular gapps
I am having zuk z2 plus and I recently installed a custom ROM (pixel experience 8.1.0). On first istallion the Google moded camera seams to be working fine but after a factory reset ,I again tried to install but the camera is not installing (" app not installed").so please help me out
Hi all. New to the forum. I have been searching the web for the last hour or two and haven't found a solution to my problem. I have used the search feature on this forum trying to find a solution but I don't think there's a thread for it. Im trying to install the showbox app. So I clicked the let unverified apps download button. We're good there. Now after I download it I go to file manager and try to install it, but when I click the install button the phone doesn't do anything. Almost as if it's not registering the touch to the install button on the screen. Tons of people have had these issues. Many other forums and videos say to uninstall or close out your screen filter apps or screen apps. I have no such apps. Version 4.95 and older I have all tried, the same thing happens. . Any Insight on how I can get this app installed please let me know. And if there is a thread send me a link. Thanks.

try with a file manager such as root browser maybe?
@BrewCrew94!!, since you mentioned the Install button that means you made it to the Package Installer so we can rule out the ROM's file manager.
You don't say what ROM you're running. For a time there was a package installer bug that plagued some ROMs. That was eventually fixed though.
If it is an overlay problem there could be something missed that's blocking the install button. Even a ROM's built-in appbar could do that.
You could maybe try Install Button Unlocker from the Play Store. If that helps then there is an overlay issue somewhere. If not, then not sure at this point.

Standard problem, when some kind of overlay app is installed as many of those use the top layer of overlays.
Every button on a deeper layer does not work in this case.
Thanks for the responses! OK so on my axon 7 I haven't a clue about what rom I am running. Nothing custom so I'm assuming I am running the latest version. I recently downloaded MI Favor. I could Check the settings later. I found a solution to the problem by creating a new user on the phone and strictly only downloaded it. It works through the file manager but doesn't work on my main phone user with all my apps. I heard of the overlay issues but I couldn't figure out what the problem app could be.
I mentioned that Install Button Unlocked app, well, I think that publisher has a companion app to identify overlays. There are others like that also. Maybe one of those can help ID what's blocking the installs.

I have updated the new showbox
Hello!
I installed the file and updated the free version of showbox v5.26!
Hi. I recently change my phone ROM to a custom one, after one year using the phone just as it came.
I installed Pixel Experience+, which its great, but there's two stock apps that I miss: Mi Screen Recorder and Mi security app.
Stock screen record was awesome: Just one touch on status bar to start recording, a floating button to start/stop and it let you record system audio and mic audio, choose 1080/720, 30/60 fps, etc. The Pixel experience+ one its just start/stop and nothing else, I don't even know if it's HD.
Security app was great too: Good trash cleaner, and a App Lock option by pin/fingerprint that it works great.
Is there a way to install those apps in Pixel Experience rom ? I tried to install apkmirror apks but it didn't work. Maybe it's something that it needs to be flashed. Or something that it just can't be done, that's why im asking.
Thanks!
ps: I just intalled the ROM, I didn't root the phone.
Some of them.
Short answer is NO at the moment there isnt any zip file that you flash it and boom Mi apps installed. (like the gapps) What you can do is to track & find which Mi-apps you want to install (manually).
What i had done in the past was to find the Mi Home launcher apk and the gallery i thing if you search you may find more apks but keep in mind that you can replace every single one app, just search for an alternative.

Thanks for the answer. That's bad new, I really liked those apps.
Yeah, I tried to download Screen Recorder and Mi Security apks from akpmirror and install it, but I couldn't.
I guess I'll have to try a third part app lock and screen recorder. Any suggestion?
uum... try to avoid 3rd party app lock (your custom rom may include that option already) as for screen recorder nop i dont have any suggestion. :|
