AutoAwesome Video - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This feature was enable on my HTC One M7 and I use it all the time. I guess the S5 is not supported but the Note 3 is? Anyone know a workaround?

I took at look on my Note 3 but cannot see the effect you are talking about. What is AutoAwesome Video?

It is part of the Google Photos app.

Make sure that G+ a Google Photos is saying in your settings. Took a few picks the other day, and within a few mins, the Noti for auto awesome came up

Auto Awesome is the name given to the tool used by Google to create these motion videos from images you upload to Google Plus either through your cell phone or computer. When the right set of photos is detected in your Google Plus photo album Auto Awesome videos are created for you to share as you please.

I'm not sure what this means? I check google plus setting and don't see a way to turn on autoawesome. I can view photos I have in my autoawesome folder that was created on my htc one before.., my gs5 never create any autoawesome photo or video that I recently took.

yes your right, there is no option to check off for the Auto Awesome, it just does it automatically of course lol, but, If Google +, and Google + Photos arent syncing, Auto Awesome will do nothing. I think ya may wanna Google Search Auto Awesome, cause i believe it only works when a certain number of photos are taken. I could be mistaken tho

Did it work for you on your S5? Cause I've taken like 40 pictures and 5 video at a party and nothing happen this past weekend with my S5 and nothing. and my photo are backed up to google + photo
Maybe I'm not making myself clear, but you see the instruction at the bottom on how to create a movie/picture. I don't even see this option to create auto awesome video.

Hello !
Any update on this topic ?
Did anybody find a way to make auto-awesome movies work (on manual mode) ?
Thanks,
Quentin

Ive GOT It! BEEEM its nice but how to...

Its fast its nice but how can I do following:
Install programs only on sd card for saving internal memory?
stop the sound of fotocam by shooting a foto?
enable led on recording videos?
thx
To Put the Apps on the SD Card you must Root your Nexus.
To stop the sound of the Camera you can disable the sound in your settings by pressing menu.
Enable the LED during recording may require root as well. I think thats the only way, possibly with Nexus Torch. Not sure though.

To stop the shutter noise just place your phone on silent or vibrate
ok to set on vibrate is a way but i would like to unenable it...
two more issues, how can i use adove flash f.e. i would like to view the desktop youtube site version but it wont work... is there a way like its shown in some presetation videos?
is there any software out for sharing the connection (wlan or 3g) with a windwos computer, my nexus one would became a wlanstick?
I've heard Camera FX on the market has the ability to turn off the sound. Not sure, but someone mentioned that.
Dolphin browser will allow you to set yourself as a "desktop" which should make all website's show up as they normally would on a computer, but I don't know if youtube would work like this. It might require flash update that we will get shortly.
Eitherway, your youtube thing will be fixed soon.

You could program your own widget, or find one that suits your needs better in the market. There isn't an easy way to change them otherwise.

[Q] Nexus 4 Photos Missing Data

My Nexus 4 seems a bit Hit & miss with its ability to take a good photo. The main problem appears to be missing data when the subject of the photo is moving. Attached an example. Is this a common and/or a known issue?

Thanks for the suggestion - but that's just another Instagram like app which I've already got a few of. It's the HDR option that looks to be the problem.

Google Camera

Anyone have a download link for that? I have reinstalled it on over dozen ROMs with titanium, but not an option here. I am assuming app.apk's can be installed here.
For some reason, Google doesn't make it available here on play store.
Nevermind - got latest apk

Thanks. The difficulty was finding a site that would not try to install a download app and also some very intrusive cookies (not unlike those that XDA tries every time I set them up on another computer).

I just installed it as I was commenting on your post. It is only a 5 meg download and show up when you hit your settings button on the camera. This seems pretty cool, Thank you.
Here is a direct link from the play store, YOU NEED TO BE LOGGED INTO GOOGLE IF YOU IN A WEB BROWSER ----------------- IF YOUR NOT LOGGED IT YOU WITH GET A MESSAGE SAYING THIS IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY
also you may or may not be able to see this on your phone and may have to log in on a pc and then click install to phone. if this helps you please let me know and also hit the thanks button

Google Camera - "Cannot connect to camera."

Hey guys, I was testing out the Google Camera app (because I like to consider all of my options) when I noticed that trying to switch to video mode causes a "Camera Error: Cannot connect to camera." All other 3rd party camera apps I've tried have worked with video. Does anyone else know why this may be happening? I'm guessing because it's just not fully compatible with the G4 camera, but I'd love to use Google Camera as my daily use camera app.
Double check the permissions on the app and make sure it's allowed to access the camera.

Yes, it is. It works for normal pictures just not for video.
Odd. Unfortunately I'm not sure then.

Yes. Everything seems to be in order.
New Google camera apps have a different API or lib (for videos and panoramas) only present on the Nexus phones. The last version of the Google camera app that works on any phone is 2.7.008 available on apkmirror, but with Moto G?, if you want to use photosphere or paborama, you have to focus in the main camera and the switch to mode that you want... Otherwise, you'll get a really blurry photo.

It's not that I particularly need the Google Camera for anything, I just saw the error and didn't understand it.

Got it working but it's not the complete feature i think. I clicked a photo with motion enabled using the P3 camera port. It showed me the timeline but it didn't recommend any top shot yet. Also, this doesn't work on smartbursts ( I thought Top Shot will replace Smartburst ).

Uninstalled it through play store. go to play store search the Photo app you will get the uninstall option.
I have installed the apk and this option is working fine on my phone using the op instructions.

On Pie, Havoc ROM, also using cstarks latest.
It works but it is not the latest version of photo, is there any chance for an updated version?
The resolution is very very low
Pixel 3 top shot pics are 1 mb, this one here is around 250 kb!! Is there a way to get atleast 1mb photos from top shot on pixel 2??

Can you port pixel visual core service from Pixel 3?

Yes
Can confirm working on Pixel 1. I was only about to get 2 recommended shots on one very recent picture taken using the Pixel 3 camera app. So that might have something to do with the fact that none of my old ones have any recommended shots. Also, the recommended shots are HDR enabled and ~700kb.
