What camera effects do you mean? The different shooting modes? All you have to do from you camera is hit the settings symbol to the side then click on settings symbol again then click on the settings symbol scroll down and turn flash on. Now you can leave it on auto or just leave it on.

Hi there I'm sure you are talking about the various filters like "vintage" ,"washedout" etc....and the answer is no...you can't enable the flash light.....I guess samsung hasn't been able to implement it...or maybe the flash ruins the filter effect...anyway...no flash while using effects....hope this helps you

Happy to help...and yeah hope they fix it
You can take pics with the filters on (though I never noticed much of a difference) and flash. The way I get around the no flash limitation is to manually turn on flash then set filter in the camera app. In your widgets tab, there is a widget marked "Assistive Light", which basically makes your LED flash act as a torch. I do need my torch from time to time so I actually have the widget itself sitting on my homescreen and with a press of a button, I turn on the torch then enter the camera app to do w/e I need to do.

I tried to take a picture to a document in a completly dark place , and I couldn´t focus, i tried with default sense camera, camera zoom and camera 360, in my previous phone, samsung i900 it switch on the flash while focus an then took the picture.. i cant do it with hd2.. any help will be highly appreciated..
t seems that anyone ere likes to take pictures in the dark)
Yeah i know where your coming from, anywhere it's very dark or very bright it's impossible to see when your trying to focus,i was on the beach today with my son and taking some snaps of him playing and i couldn't see with the sun but thankfully the photos turned out ok but with my old digital camera i was able to see a lot more.
Just take the picture. The flash will come on and the picture will be able to be seen.
This is something I was stuck at too. Normally, on a phone with flash, in the dark, trying to focus would temporarily activate the flash to let the phone see where to focus, and then fix the focus on the spot and shoot the picture.
My HD2 won't do that. Just one of the little things no one thought of.
use the torch app widget to flick the torch on, it will; stay on when you jump to camera and focus will work.

pro-hdr-camera has a torch option in the flash settings which keeps the led on so you can focus in complete darkness, bought it just for that feature. also take pretty decent shots.

These are some changes I noticed on the new 4.1.2 XXDLL4 ROM released for India.
1- Better browser performance. Now I see the browser like a 'real' desktop. I always had flash player installed but there were annoying white empty spaces in some websites, but now there is no more.
- Browsermark results (mobile view)
(Desktop view)
2- There is a three dot icon while calling. Don't know what it does or it's meaning!
3- Obviously the most flashy feature is the introduction of ink effects!
Different colour options are available, if you like
4- You can edit notification panel now, add or delete as per your wish. You can now permanently disable the Mutliwindow too. So holding the back button won't enable it anymore.
5- AnTuTu benchmark, if anyone is interested.
6- The number format in SMS is weird! It splits the number! Bad.
7- Sorry I don't find the continuous input prediction to be better, nor Swyping.
8- There is a cursor control option in keyboard settings, however you won't be able to use it with Continuous input!
9- And I hate the new 'slim' clock font introduced. Loved the previous bold look WAY better!
10- And I think the S Note application is faster than before now. It'd take 3/4 seconds to create a new note before, and it seems faster now, say 30%? Or am I wrong?
11- When the font size was selected as Normal the cursor was not seen in some applications like Tapatalk and others, but now it is fixed
So if you guys are noticing anything else kindly share here.
I think that the spaces between numbers are good? Easy to read.
Mine is BTU, nothing yet on Kies
Still waiting

One thing I noticed, a VERY welcomed addition i might add, is the Gallery "ACTUALLY ASKED ME!" If I wanted my Facebook photos to appear or not! Thank god for that haha.
Is there any Lag?
Zooming in gallery was laggy in poland 4.1.2
is it the Same Here ?
Here's my list
1. Camera feature: Hold Volume to focus, release to take photo
2. Video feature: Press Volume to start recording, press again to toggle flash.
3. 480p Flash Video Works (if you have latest Flash Player 11.1.115.34 Installed)
4. New Samsung Keyboard Feature: Cursor Control, Continuous Input (If you didn't already have it)
5. Customized Notification Toggle Icons
6. New Notification Toggles: AllShare Cast, Smart Stay, S Bean, Driving Mode, Blocking Mode
7. Brightness slider can now be disabled, but who would do this?
8. Stock web browser rendering improvements, seems to load pages faster, but I can't say for sure.
9. Ink Effect with S Pen on Swipe lockscreen, and customizable ink colors.
10. Gallery in normal list mode is now 3d rendered. When you flick it fast, the photos tilt.
11. Brightness control notification disappears at 5% battery. Don't like!
12. New save option for HDR shooting mode for camera. Save HDR only.
13. Write notes to front of the picture with polaroid type frame...
14. Video Player app's alphabetization is fixed.
15. Screen capture icon for Video Player app is changed.
16. Multi Window with Video Player adds sharpening to entire screen.
17. Bug fixed when full screening Video Player from multi window (no more notification bar).
18. S Planner has new post-it option.
19. Groupcast
20. Vibration and pop noises when Email is hovered with S Pen in Email app.
21. Handwriting recognition bug fix where it used to only first take in a few strokes interpret only the first few letters, then resume, but it would mess you up in the process. No longer an issue.
22. Click on the picture of your contact, in Contacts app, and it is integrated with services such as facebook, skype, maps, etc.
23. Set music in slideshow in gallery? Was that there in 4.1.1?
24. The slideshow music plays when you choose "Play continuous shot" in Gallery with photos taken in continuous shot mode.
25. In landscape mode in Gallery, the last shared option icon is present next to standard share icon in gallery. This may have been there in 4.1.1. Just seeing it for the first time because I probably don't share photos often.

When I flash this Firmware via ODIN, will the cam firmware be updated?
When not, how can I update manuelly the cam firmware?
Excuse me for my bad english.

Its the same if you update via odin (using full stock rom) or via OTA update/samsung kies. I tried both methods successfully and the rear camera & phone FW versions remain same (i.e. ZKF107 & ZKFJ03 respectively).

Hi guys,
I am hacing a problem with the autofocus on the default camera app on the nexus 4.
Before when I clicked a picture at the last moment it would make sure the camera is in focus before snapping a picture.
But now it just focus hunts with the focus shifting back and forth and the final result is unacceptable.
I want it to go back to the way it was before.
If I use another camera app like say the ever note camera it works perfectly fine. I'm only having a problem with the default camera.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks a lot guys
Its the way it is.

I understand your problem, but IMO it is not really a problem. Just tap on the object you want to focus and then tap on the circle to take the picture.
Just tapping on the Circle sometimes keeps the focus and sometimes not. its better if you tap and hold for a while before you release your finger.

Hey, thanks for the reply.
I just installed a custom camera app instead and its working like a charm. Its called QuickSnap.
The funny thing is that the default camera used to work perfectly fine before the 4.2 update.
Great!

Thats good, I myself noticed this thing on the stock camera app. but then again just few more taps fixed this but yes I tried Snap Camera
there no such issues with that, even on Instagram camera.
But I don't know why i feel that stock camera app is the best.
Cheers!
I'm having this big problem too.
Any of you guys notice that sometimes when using the flash it'll show the picture as overly bright right after you take it? but once you view it in the gallery it looks normal

Nope, i've searched everywhere but nothing.
Hi, i was thrilled to use the Galaxy S5 as my daily especially when i used the camera quite often to do my work. But when i want to explore more of its camera mode and move to samsung app store it was a huge disappointment when it says "Your device or country is only available for limited service". It really is annoying and defeat the purpose of having "download" option when i can have none
So, my question is, is there anything i can do about it? i tried vpn but no success or i might do it wrong.
It would be better if anyone have the apk for it:
I'm looking for:
Surround shot mode
Sport shot mode
Sound & shot mode
Animated photo mode

Hello everyone!
Can I somehow disable beauty mode for the front camera?
My face is too smooth when I am using a video call on Skype, Viber, Messenger and I hate that, so if someone knows how can I disable it that'd be awesome!
My P9 Lite is rooted tho.
With much thanks!?
Anyone?

Camera app settings aren't kind of working for the thing I want to do.
Yes, I CAN turn off the beauty mode when I am taking a selfie, but I CAN'T pick whether I want my face to be beautified while I am using skype video call for example or not. Thats what I want, thats why I told you that my phone is rooted, if its possible to make some adjustments in the root directory to disable it completely.
I dont want my face to look smooth and unnatural while I am making a video call.
Hopefully you can understand me what I want. ?
Thanks for your advice though, but that is not working for me.
I have the same problem please help
