Yes this is safe, but Backup first

Yup, won't do any harm. Using QuickPic as a Gallery replacement and A Better Camera for the default camera app and all is fine :good:

Can I change the camera preview to launch another gallery app?

Hi fellas,
I did my searching around but couldn't find this solution.
Currently, the preview thumbnail on the camera can only launch Samsung's Gallery3d app. Can I change this to another app?
I'd like to use GalleryICS, coz it's alot faster.
I tried copying the APK into system/app and renaming it to gallery3d but that didn't work.
Thanks in advance!
Any help?
Up again....!
Change it

Not that I know of, but you could try the stock JB camera, which includes a Gallery and a Camera app.

Thanks for the reply!
I did try out the app "Camera ICS" but didn't found it to be that good. I've also heard the pix quality is affected. However, let me try out the 4.3 camera.. that could be a good compromise

Stock Camera app?

Does anybody have the stock camera app apk? I really don't want to have to reflash my phone as it is set up how I like it and am really liking the stock+root - debloated w/ launcher setup as of now. The problem is that the stock camera isn't working, once it goes on, it becomes unresponsive and won't take pictures.
I have been using the Google camera, but I am missing features of the stock one and always prefer to use the camera app that was created around the hardware.
I was wondering if anybody had a link to the stock camera app so I could reflash it and replaced the old, broken one. I have tried to clear data and it still gives me the same issues.
Thanks!

[Q] Worst image quality on gallery

Hi guys
I found that when I shoot a photo, it has a very high quality when is on shooting, but when I search for it in gallery, its quality is a lot decreased, comparing to it while I was shooting. How should this be fixed? (I use Camera FV-5 for the camera, and QuickPic for the gallery)
Maybe should I apply a mod/tweak, or some mods to build.prop?

Try stock camera or Google camera. And just you can use stock gallery. Try it. And tell us what is the result?

I'll try it, thank you. With Google Camera i've already tried and had worst quality both on shooting and on gallery . I found a solution, modifying every photo after the shot with an image editing app, but it means a big waste of time...Do you know if I should download stock apps? Or do I have to extract them from stock firmware compressed file?

Its your choice. But may be there are something wrong in your rom. Which one have you used? If you have a custom rom you should have to try a stock one. And if you are on stock then try to re flashed a firmware.

Back camera not saving pictures! Help

Hi,
So yesterday I was out and I took a few pictures and noticed the camera app was NOT saving them. The front camera worked fine and saved correctly but every time I take a picture with the back camera it seems as though it's taking the picture but doesn't save it.
I updated today to 7.1 and same issue. I tried uninstalling the app updates but still same issue. Any idea? Can I flash the camera app somehow?

You may want to try to download another camera app, or use another app you may already have (i.e.: Snapchat), to see if it's the camera app or the camera itself.

You may want to attempt clean install

The picture is not saved even after clicking!

The default camera app is pretty good. However, when I click a pic, it shows up in the down left corner but when I click that, it doesnt shows up in the gallery. Its so frustrating! Due to this, I am forced to take two clicks in the camera. What could be the issue for such a bug? Shall I download another camera app? Which is the best if I want one? I have also noticed a bad battery drain! The 5000 mah doesnt lives up to its hype. Hope the future OTAs will solve it. Waiting for Pie now...

Install another 'Gallery' app, example 1) Foto gallery 2) Quickpic .. etc
Set the 3rd party gallery app as default. Click a pic from your stock Cam and then check if the image is being saved and previewed/opened in the 3rd party gallery app.
Pie update will come by the end of this quarter 2018, first priority Asus Zenfone 5Z then Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1.

I am using the "Foto Gallery" already. Dont like the Quickpic much. And Foto Gallery is set as default as well. The moment I click a pic, it shows up in the preview circle but it never shows up in the gallery. It became frustrating gradually. I am using another camera app called "Camera MX" now. It solves the problem for now. I wonder what causes such an issue. Hope the Pie update will solve all this. Especially the battery drain.
Thanks a lot for your reply. Hope things will be better soon!

Wait a minute! I just installed "Quickpic" and set that as default and it works!! So may be it was the Foto Gallery's issue. I never liked Quickpic much but guess I will have to use that for now. All my clicked pics are easily opened from the preview circle.
Thanks again buddy! I never expected this to be a gallery's issue. Back to the original camera app now. Phew!

Glad it worked. Simple troubleshooting
You could now try re-installing Foto gallery app, set it to default gallery app and check if it's still giving the same problem or not. If problem is resolved then you can continue using Foto gallery and uninstall Quickpic (as u said u aren't fond of).
If the problem still persists with Foto gallery app then I guess u need to stick with Quickpic for a while.
Btw, I'm using Foto gallery app and it works fine on my Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1.

Yeah sure! Thanks
Would have liked to use default camera app
The suggestion of using another camera app is valid but the fact that I cannot use beauty mode and bokeh effect in camera mx makes me feel bad about not being able to use the default camera app. I just got my pro m2 yesterday and m facing this bug due to the update. Very disappointing!!!
I am also same problem so how can solve this problem?
