No TouchWiz apps need TouchWiz in order to run.. Basically it won't work on any other Rom

samsung camera

I hate touchwiz... so rooted and flashed a new rom, but i want the samsung camera? is this possible is there an APK? please and thank you
If you flashed an aosp ROM you'll never get the Samsung camera working. You should really search cause this had been talked about so many times it'll make your head spin!

as mention on the first reply, the samsung camera will not work on any AOSP launcher and etc.
the Sasmung Camera apk needs the TWLauncher in order for it to work.

woops xD haha sorry. i just woke up and i'm not myself now...
maybe i should grab breakfast. hahaha
Maybe instead of flashing aosp rom. Could you not keep tw rom. Install a launcher with aosp theme. This way you get aosp look and feel while still keeping the stock camera mate.
Just a thought

If you hate touchwiz you should not buy a samsung galaxy s4??

I remember when people used to ask about the HTC apps being able to be transferred to AOSP yes it's possible in theory but no one will do it because of the ever changing updates and such and also the fact it's a lot of framework to change, however if it was done it would be seriously good, also i'm sure Samsung probably would say something along the lines of a lawsuit if we did manage to port it all over.

how to extract camera app from s4 ?

Hello, i want to install cyanogenmod but from what i read, camer app sux, so i want to install the samsung stock apk, i haven´t flashed CM, (still have touchwiz) how do you extract an apk from the current rom to install it on another rom ???
the touchwiz camera will not work on aosp-based roms as there are framework variations. the 4.3 camera is working superbly for me. cheers.
The cyan camera is great IMO, only issue I've noticed on some aosp ROM's is the HDR being too dark. Easily fixed by just unchoosing and rechoosing the HDR option. I like the focusing a lot more than the stock camera.

Google Play Edition VS Touchwiz Features

I'm thinking about flashing a Google Play Edition ROM on to my S4 i9505 but I keep wondering if I'll miss any of the Samsung features if I do. Have you made the swap and did you miss any Touchwiz features?

I tested this GE ROM on my i9505 and I was really impressed. So smooth and real Android "feeling", what I missed was
SmartStay
S Planner Widget
Samsung Camera
Amount of shortcuts for settings
I know that some parts can be fixed with e.g. xposed framework and gravity. At least this annoying "unlock SIM card" bug was there.
Nevertheless the GE ROM is the better ROM in my eyes, finally I switched to CM 10.2 nightlies for testing.
Cheers

Camera issues. Please help

Hey I'm currently having a problem with camera apps which are lagging/freezing my phone up. The only way to make them work correctly is to covert the app to a system app. Anyone know why this is happening? I have tried a few ROMs which are asop kk, not tried a stock ROM .
EDIT: tested a stock rom and camera and play store cameras are fine. Anyone know why i'm having problems with ASOP roms?
Which camera apps did you used?

Sorry I have a I9505, and tested first *whistle camera selfie* (this froze instantly) then, camera zoom fx and a better camera. the stock camera2 worked fine. roms used C-RoM asop, cDroid simple. and slimKAT.

If you want ALL the camera working as you should expect avoid aosp roms or similar.
I am also waiting for a working CM rom but I daily need my camera working at my finger, so I stay with 4.3 ROMS.
Cheers all, bit of a shame really. But guess I'll have to use stock roms then. Wish TW has asop Lockscreen and blurred to see wallpaper

TW versus AOSP ROMs

Hi all, I have been using the galaxy series since E4G and have used both stock based ROMs and AOSP based. I am currently on Sac's ROM 3 and have been curious about running AOSP on my gs4. So anyone that that has made the change to AOSP, did you miss any features only available to TW based ROMs? Like the stock camera? Or calendar app? I use Nova Launcher so I don't really care about the TW launcher.

I actually prefer the stock camera and calendar in aosp over tw.[emoji3] I'm a huge aosp fan and always used those type of roms. There are so many 3rd party apps out now for those who don't prefer aosp stock gapps..

The ## dialer diag features in ASOP ROMs is often missing, and perhaps was missing in every ASOP ROM evaluated to date.

I installed cm11 and the voicemail feature was missing, I prefer touchwiz due to more completeness but asop seems a bit quicker with less lag, you won't have the camera with touchwiz due to software optimization.
Check these pictures out. I took them using aosp camera that's in PA gapps. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2758046 To me its just as good as tw cam. If you use Banks's gapps gives you the Google cam with photosphere and other cool effects.. Then there are tons of apps that can tweak different things..

My guess is just daylight. I've had AOSP camera take pics as good as touchwiz but ONLY outside during the day. Indoors with florescent lights or at night never came out as good.
