Samsung Optical Reader APK - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've seen some other threads talking about the lack of the Optical Reader on the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4, but just that it is lacking. Can anyone get the APK for this and upload it? I would really like to use it, but haven't found anywhere that I can get my hands on it? Would really appreciate the help! Thanks!

Thanks, but I'm not rooted, so I don't think this works for me. I tried it and got nothing. Said it couldn't do it since I don't have access.

Is anyone able to provide an APK of this for me? I'm sticking stock unrooted for now, so I would like to just be able to get the apk and sideload it. Thanks for any help!

Anybody have the apk? I've read people suggest downloading camcard from the Samsung app store but it's not the same app

Messaging Bug

Has anyone else found the messaging app to be extremly buggy? I have the stock ATT rom and haven't made any major mods to it. It's constantly freezing, the text input field is always hidden, etc. Is there a fix somewhere? At this point I'm even willing to pay for an app, but I can't find any. SMS chat doesnt work with 6.5.
Please and thanks for any help!

Thanks! If that works, you will be me hero!

I'm inexperienced with custom ROMs, but I think its a 50/50 chance. Give it a shot and if it doesn't work you can simply unistall it. Everything will be like before. That's the beauty of CABs.
no luck
not compatible with system.

did you get the error before installation? if so, my guess is htc put in a check to see what rom ur running so the fix cant install on another device. maybe a good dev here can decompile the cab and remove the check/block.
cannot d/l from htc site....
Just got around to installing this. My messaging app wasn't giving me much trouble prior to now, so i just installed it. It froze right when I opened the first message and backed out. Just tried again and it froze again. Way to go HTC.

It's still open. Just sign up here:

the only other thing you can do is use the ADB. However offering software, or requesting software that is paid, or only available a "testing group" is against TOS of XDA.
Thanks for all the replies, im going to try the beta for right now... and i wasnt requesting any software, i was just asking for tips/suggestions...
Thanks to all though, im doing more research on adb...
which command though can i use to pull an installed application ?

Since swype comes preinstalled on the mytouch, it does not go against its tos to pull it, distribute it or install it on another rooted mytouch as long as it is the same version that comes on the phone.

I know you weren't asking for it. I was just squashing that bug before someone else asked.
you should go to the g2 apps section they have a app called swype restore works on my mt4g it pulls the swype files from a backup that has swype and installs it on to the rom your using

You answered your own question. adb pull will pull a file from the phone.
I rooted my mt4g. I threw cm7 on there. but swype is gone. I have my stock backed up. And i'm sure theres a way to pull it through to cm7. but i don't know how. help?

Go to the cm faq sticky. There's a post on getting the stock swype back on, but I would just join the swype beta program and download the latest swype beta from their website. That's what I did and I think it's better than the mt4g stock version. It has voice to text button too. My 2¢
Sent from my HTC Glacier
I'm assuming this will work. Don't know much about much but
Adb pull system/app/swype.apk c:/
Is this against tos? If it is I have no intention of breaking the rules, plz delete the comment

[Q] Best method to root 6.2.1 if we have not done it prior

I have not rooted prior to 6.2.1 but really want the android market so now I must root. I have a few questions;
I keep seeing something about having to download root explorer from the amazon market to use the new method, would es file explorer work?
Sorry if I'm way off base on any or all of this, I've never rooted anything
I'm tech savvy so i could do it if i had a definitive list of all the progams needed and preferably a video tut of the process. Im seeing a few different ways so im confused as to which way i need to do it. Could someone please point me in the right direction ? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
You seem to have the ability to read and write the English language why don't you go over to the thread where this is being discussed and read the information that is offered and make a decision.
There are tons of threads on this very topic as this is a very hot topic...And in each thread it will tell u what u need to root and etc....Just look up how to root 6.2.1
i hope this helps......

[Q] GT-I9502 I9502ZNUAMDI ROOT help

Hello, I'm in China, Beijing with my girlfriend and her mother bought her this lovely Samungs 4 chinaunicom phone. It doesn't come with any google services, and my girlfriend really wishes to use these google services. She wants to root it, but I don't know much about this topic. I was wondering if someone can write a detailed guide or point me in the right direction. I see so many guides for different androids. I was just hoping to know what to do for this model.
Thank you so much everyone!

Hi,I have uploaded some files that wil be used to root the I9502 and flash the recovery.
First, put zip file UPADTE-SuperSU-V1.30.zip and the google apps in your sd card. Reboot your phone to the Download mode.
Extract the two zip files: i9502-csc-root.tar.zip and i9502-cwm-recovery.tar.zip
Then connect your S4 to pc,and open odin. You should choose CSC for i9502-csc-root.tar.md5 ,pda for i9502-cwm-recovery.tar.md5. Start to flash them.
After that,reboot your S4 to CWM. WIPE the data and cache before install UPADTE-SuperSU-V1.30.zip .
At last install your google apps. OK, that's all. Enjoy it.
