Did you follow all of the instructions correctly?
Look In OP in this thread. Pick a camera link. Now once you've done so:
1) Download apk to sd card
2) Use Root Explorer and copy it to system\app
3) Rename existing HTCCamera.apk to HTCCamera.bak
4) Rename the new camera to HTCCamera.apk
5) Long press on new HTCCamera.apk and click permissions

As far as widgetsoid, I cannot help you. But there are Quick settings in the notifications bar. Save your phone some space, and delete Widgetsoid.

I got widgetsoid working and the camera I am using is the one that comes with the ROM I dowloaded another but turning off wide screen made it work but mirror is unable to notice it so my best course of action is switch camera's

I had the issue you have to go into settings and actually enable it. Crazy right?
I'm having an issue with Messages forcing close
as well as the phone being overall slow as hell. I'm going to uninstall some thigns to see if maybe that could be the case.. Put literally.. Preview 5, without the toolkit seemed to treat me a lil bit better.

[CLOSED] UCCW closes

I've been taking the time to create a theme with UCCW lately. However, UCCW frequently doesn't load the widgets when I start my device. They just display the loading icon. I also experience frequent crashes and reinstalling the app does not have an effect. Is this due to an OpenGL live wallpaper or is this a known issue?

There have recently been problems with the latest version of UCCW (2.8.8), which many users have said causes the app to regularly crash. It also did something to the main settings of the app as it resized all of my widgets which made my carefully set up home screen look terrible!
I have since rolled back to version 2.8.7 which fixes the problems.
I suggest you check the version number, and if it is 2.8.8 then try and get an older version.

Wrong thread?

You might have some luck if you ask in one of the huge UCCW threads in the main XDA themeing subforum. Im sure someone has to have it still.

I did. Editing first post now, someone got me a copy of 2.8.7 and all is well.

This happened to me, the weather widget disappeared, i was using new zealands metservice one and was stumpped for days....
So, have you recently moved it to sdcard in the application manager recently as that was what i did and it disappeared, when i moved it back device storage and then the widget was back.

THANK YOU ! you have led me in the right direction , turns out I have disabled the widget in the applications section and have completely forgot about it . Also the weather widget only works with the TouchWiz not the Nova Launcher .

hangout app emojis after update 4.4

Hello guys,
quick question here.
I updated last night my sprint galaxy s4
but now I don't see the google emojis on the hangout app
I only see the samsung emojis
Thank you. !
EDIT:
a user said this:
Samsung baked a custom hangouts in the rom to show their emoji instead.

Not exactly sure how that happened. My emoji button is attached to the text input bar on the left with location and photo on the right. There was an update released in the past few days. Tried uninstalling updates and reinstalling it?

I just updated to swifty keyboard and indeed, the emoji icon does show up.
kind of strange

Is there a way to go back to the hangout style of emojis? I dont like the samsung looking icons, rather have the stock hangouts.

today I checked the hangouts app and it is showing the stock emojis
I am not sure how it happened but it is back.
Although when they display on the text field it shows the samsung ones :/

Exactly, I dont like that, I see the stock ones since I use Swiftkey. But when I enter them in or anyone else on the chat enters a emoji it shows as the samsung one. EERRRR

As long as you're stock, there's nothing you can do. It goes beyond just the hangouts app. As if they built it into their framework or something. Any emoji displayed on the phone at all will be displayed as the samsung version. I could go into more detail but, meh...

[HELP] Disable S-VIEW

Hi fellow devs nd members of xda,
I have got problems with my Galaxy S4.. The sview is flashing throughout my screen without any S-Cover or any magnetic material. This happens randomly.. So I need to disable the s-view service and associated files.
I have tried the following :
1. Disable s-view from system settings
2. Renamed and changed permission for system/app/sview service.apk
I heard from another developer to change the value from OPEN to CLOSE in hall_detect file located at sys/devices/virtual/sec/sec_key. But I can't write into the file or rename the file.. The only thing I can do is change the permissions, but that doesn't help..
Does anyone have any idea how this sview works. It's become annoying when I play movies or games on my S4..
Many thanks
AJ

If you're rooted you could try the xposed modules, there's one in there that disables S-View.
I will edit this post if I find the specifics.

It's as close as you can get without disabling the sensor. I didn't hook into the phone so that might still show the S-View window, but that's no biggie. Also, the Smart Stay icon disappears, but hey, that can be a plus

You saved my ass, thanks for that. After getting root and so on I tried to follow your instructions. The App was there and I stopped it but needed only one tap (clicked once ->Force Stop) and then stick it on the phone holder but again the S View Cover Screen comes on (with time/date and status bar). I have no clue what to do now because I can't deactivate the app even.
EDIT: When I deactivate the app per third party app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.SystemCleanup.Inteks.org) the black screen comes on without time and date. So there is any other process that start when a magnet comes close to the S4 ?

Yes, of course the holder has magnets too so yeah I know its triggering that view but I thought that view could be fully disabled without a custom rom.
A custom rom is no solve for me right now.
The Question would be how the S View got removed in the roms then I could do the same for my stock rom.
Found out that the Hall Sensor triggers that but found nothing to disable or something like that.
