SlimKat Camera for AOSP Roms?? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Love the camera in SlimKat RC2 but ROM is a bit buggy is there anyway to mod the camera in SlimKat RC2 to work on AOSP ROMs like ProBam/PA? I tried swopping out Camera2 apk's but that doesnt work... hope someone can assist thanks
reason: AOSP ROMs only have fullscreen aspect ratio not the normal 4.3 (unless you go down to 7MP) and the controls on the SlimKat camera are amazing.

Copy the camera 2 apk into system/app and change the permission to rw-r-r
I tested it and t worked on the latest cm 11 nightly. To change permissions use the cm file explorer and while its in system app hold down on it, hit properties, then permissions, then uncheck the second box in the second row.

Thanks, but tried exactly that, changed permissions and tried to install but keeps saying app not installed???, rebooted (cleared caches etc.) but same issue... any other ideas?
EDIT: Got it right! just copy the camera 2 apk from slimkat to sys/app it will ask to overwrite or cancel, select overwrite (your camera icon on homescreen is now missing), camera will not install if tapped, dont worry, Now go to Apps and clear data from Camera, and uninstall updates, then it will ask you if you want to install the factory version (which is now the slimkat version in sys/app) say yes and voila you now have the slimkat camera on your AOSP rom. its a much better camera app than the std AOSP one, the slimkat one has many more options and control incl the 13MP 4:3 aspect ratio...

Try a clean flash..
Factory reset if coming from different ROM.
Wipe cache,dalvick,data and system then Flash ROM and gapps.
check /system/app/, if you have duplicate apk files in there, delete the duplicates and reboot.
Gallery I see:
Galaxy4.apk
Gallery2.apk
GalleryGoogle.apk

[APK] OnePlus One CM 11S Screencast 1.0.0.2 for Nexus 5 (screen recording) (ROOT)

Hi guys, after the CM 11S was ported to our loved Nexus 5, the only app that I like from this firmware is Screencast..
Very simple to use and seems bug-free..
The only difference from the CM11S, is that to start the app, we dont have any buttons shortcut (on the OpO you can press VolUp+Power).
I dont have modified anything.. Extracted from rom zip..
Tested on Nexus 5 CM11 nightly 07-18-2014 - stock CM kernel
APK Download and screenshots in atch section down here..
Flashable Zip HERE
Thanks to @vin4yak
How to install:
- Copy the APK to \system\priv-app\
- Set correct permissions
- Reboot
I'm not responsable for any damage to your devices.
Backup-Backup-Backup.. And remember, Backup!!..
All credits go to @[SIZE="4"]P4R[/SIZE] for his CM 11S ported for Nexus 5 - Thread link
PS. I hope I have not broken any rule.. in case, let me know..
Thanks, tested on pa 4.5 alpha2 and works
@Mako0
Here's a flashable zip: https://www.mediafire.com/?d41qtmv5ffk4m1h
PS: Make sure you have a recent backup if anything goes wrong. It shouldn't, but it's better to be safe than sorry

Years are passed since I've started to find a way to change even Screenshots folder..
I hate Android default folders location
I think its mainly because these apps are ported from phones with no ExtSD to begin with so the feature is useless.

Other then move files on extSD, I want to set a different folder even on internal memory, for example using only one folder for photo and Screenshots, and other media files..
Even on Chrome's or stock browser (and others) you can't change the download location..

[APP][5.0+][4.2+] Sony apps and libraries ported to Lollipop

Just flash this zip in recovery : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347843173
Now, enjoy easy install of Sony Apps. Maybe they wont install, so push them to /system/app or /system/priv-app

Flash the zip. Maybe it fails. Now read the text displayed by the recovery log. Says you must mount system manually on TWRP or CWM, and reflash zip.
Not work :/
E:Error exe****ing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/SonyFiles.zip'.
I mount system manually..
I use TWRP.
I've extracted the walkman app and installed it normally and it worked flawlessly on CM12.1 Hammerheadcaf.
A bit off topic: I tried to install the walkman app on my Stock G2 Lollipop 5.0.2, it got installed, but when I open the app, it Force closes, the same with lower "8" version ports. It used to work on Stock G2 Kitkat.
Does these apps work on stock Roms like cataclysm? any workaround to work? want to try walkman/music app :
Edit: I tired walkman/music app on stock cataclysm and it's working great. Thankx for the port. There is no clear bass in this verson? sound enchantment takes me to stock equalizer

This features requieres additional Sony files. You can use Viper4Android, its workin' perfectly with Walkman for me.
You gave me an idea. Stay tuned

Thats not off topic dont worry
Try to make a logcat, or make a backup of Stock LP rom, and flash the Sony files flashable zip to see if it resolves. I recommend you to make a backup in the case of flashin results in a bootloop, i just tested it on Euphoria-OS AOSP on my Nexus 5.
If not, make a logcat extract and submit it to pastebin.com, and post the link

Are you sure /system is mounted ? If yes, maybe there's a problem with your TWRP version

Tried multiple times to restart, deodex system apps, and grabbed logcats, but still crashes and never reached any bootanimation, so i stopped it for now, hoping somebody one day will help me
Ohh. Sad to hear that. Wish i could help but i don't have knowledge to porting stuffs. Good luck for the future.
I installed Album normally, runs ok but there are graphical glitches here and there. Then I tried flashing the API zip but it showed an error. (I did mount system and I'm using CWM)

I dont faced it personally.. Dont use CWM, its discontinued, use TWRP instead, and it should work.
I just updated Music app to 9.0.1.A.3.0 Beta
Sony seems to have added a quick button, with new settings, allowing to read some playlists.
Here's APKMirror changelog :
Change log:
- Quick play button (Experimental feature)
- Color picking on landing page items
- Misc bug fixes
** Please note that the beta application is not fully translated. **
I wont notify every update i make and upload on my Sony AndroidFileHost Folder, so subscribe to Sony Music app updates on Pushbullet, and when you see an update, the ported apk will be available here as usual, within 24 hours.
Cheers

How to flash S4 camera and Task Manager in Aurora N4/S6 ROM?

Hey guys, I flashed the Aurora N4/S6 Lollipop ROM on my GT-I9500 a month or so ago and it's the best ROM I've flashed so far. I do miss the S4 task manager though and the S6 camera is buggy so I wanted to know how would I flash these two items again? Would I have to refresh the Ron again or what?
There are other camera apps on the okay store too.
Google the s4 camera app because someone may have already extracted the camera apk.

OK, what about the task manager? I'd prefer to use the stock version
Sorry, I'm not sure about the stock task manager as I don't have an s4 at the moment.
Maybe someone knows of a way to extract the apk from a stock ROM?
I'd also rather not have 2 Camera apps. If I could flash them in the aroma installer that came with the ROM, that'd be better
Here is the stock camera
https://mega.nz/#!JhJGDI6J!Qf8k8HX4-vcN4eoH_T7mBD6DLNU8jiwugOD973270Gs
And i haven't task manager, u can use another task manager app from store.
I flashed that camera app and it made things worse. The app no longer opens now and just crashes and my phone is lagging now. Was it supposed to "optimize" 222 apps when I rebooted?

Reflash camera zip file then wipe cache and dalvik, after reboot ur device, go titanium backup and wipe data of camera app.
Ur stock camera is ready for use...
Ok that worked.
I'd like to say I'm free of issues but I have one last issue that needs to be remedied. When I first flashed the aurora rom, I couldn't record any snapchat videos. They would be green and distorted. I was hoping flashing the stock camera would fix that but it didn't. Anyone else have this issue with snapchat videos?
Edit
This what my Snapchat video looks like

Anyone?

I've just flashed this rom. The UI is great, rom is smooth. But there are some problems of course. Gallery app is not working, I can take photo but can't open it in gallery. And the sd card does not seems to show up. But good thing is since it based on H2OS, I can flash Arsenic kernel and it's working fine. Do not disturb mode is always enabled, I can't turn it off, but phone still rang.
Edit: sd card does not show up in default explorer, but it shows and working in Solid Explorer. Both flashing open gapps and magisk are working fine.

"Screenshots are in the Chinese forum"... It is is written right in the first post!
Click the link
Just flashed.. Great animations, graphics, sounds and a unique feeling in general.
BUT! This rom asks for every single app for internet and location permissions! from calendar to gallery and notes, in music app and so on.. And if you don't to give permissions there is only an "exit" option and you can't use the app! Maybe it's safe but it seems to me a little shady.
There are many chinese apps preinstalled which explains the size of the rom.
Furthermore some notifications are in chinese and you don't get what they say.
I flashed opengapps after flashing the rom with no success, so I used a google installer from their store and it worked just fine..
Photos from the camera are stretched and Gallery doesn't show anything as mentioned..
wifi/bluetooth/data works fine.
Just updated the post.
details on the ROM: UI experience is unique compared to the other custom ROMs available, but very similar to H2OS. The only difference is that Flyme's launcher has tons of themes online (I hated all of them tho). ROM is really good as a daily, it contains both camera apps, OnePlus' one and Meizu's one. And after enabling Google services via the Google Installer apk, there are no issues either. And any kernel for OOS 3 will work on this ROM; I'm using Arsenic kernel. I've also flashed Magisk v13.1 and it is working without any problems with Greenify and Naptime running
