I am not sure where I am going wrong. Im looking to turn on the GPS location tag in the camera app. The problem is that there is not way to enable it in the settings of the camera app.
Is it hidden somewhere else?
On my Verizon NI 4.4.4 S-5 the location tag is set in the camera settings. You hit the gear icon and up pops all of the various settings. Location Tags are in the row that is third from the bottom on the left hand side.

Thats the problem...... not there!
found the option.....you have to change it to front facing camera to see the shutter and location options

Is there a way to disable geotagging of photos?
So far I found you can disable location under Settings->Location Security->My Location.
But I wanted to keep that on, but just disable it for the camera app.

Open the camera app:
Menu > Settings on the left side onscreen menu > Click on the wrench > Unclick GPS
I don't see that option, I am running EE 2.0.1 though (DK17), did they remove it in Froyo?
What about just turning off gps when taking photos?
That works but I use maps and navigation a lot so I usually keep location on.

I finally got around to poking at the camera software on the A7 and noticed a Watermark option. Oddly enough, when I try to flip the switch it doesn't turn on. Is anyone else having this issue or know what I'm doing wrong?
Works for me, and it puts the date and the text "by AXON" in the bottom right corner of the photo.
Puts the date but allows me to input whatever title I want with a subtitle and to set whatever colour I want...
I have the Chinese Axon 7, 4gb ram 128gb rom.
It finally started working for me. No idea why it wouldn't previously.
And now it's not working again. I also had the camera app freeze on me and had to reboot my phone.
So it turns out that if you open the camera app from the lock screen, you can't enable and disable the watermark. But if you open it from the app drawer you can.

Thanks for the tip :good:
Hello,
I'm starting to hate my S7 Edge, and I'm really missing my Edge 6 Plus. Has anyone else had these problems and perhaps have any advice for resolving them? I've searched around and can't find any other reports of these problems.
First, if I'm traveling, *sometimes* I can't use the Google Navigation App if I'm in motion. For example, if I'm driving home, and I decide to get gas, if I say "OK Google, navigate to the Gas Station" It will of course find a close gas station, and allow me to choose which one. After I do so, the app will plot a course, but then will fail to acquire a satellite. The app will just sit there constantly saying "Acquiring Satellite" (or something to that effect, I can't remember the exact error) but it never does find the satellite. The only fix for this is to repeatedly turn off and on the Location services, until eventually it just works. Which is extremely infuriating not to mention dangerous while driving. I rememeber falling in love with my S6 Edge Plus because it had such an easy time navigating and this S7 Edge is so consistently terrible at locating my position.
Second, this is a problem I did not know I had until today: After mis-placing my phone, I went to the Google "Find my phone" web page on my computer, to force my cellphone to ring. I have used this service before with all my other phones and it never failed to force the device to ring. But this time, my S7 did not ring. Luckilly I was able to find my phone on my own. When I did locate it, i noticed that there was an icon in the notification tray saying "Ringing phone" and yet the phone was NOT RINGING! With the phone in hand, I tried to use the webpage to locate my phone by ringing it again. The same thing happened. It put a notification up that my phone was "ringing" in the phone's notification display, but made no actual noise.
I checked the settings - > Lock Screen and Security -> Find my Mobile, and it asks me for my Samsung Account Password.
Why my samsung account? Why not google? I don't understand.
So I signed in, and google location service is set to ON, as expected. Remote controls is also set to ON. There is a notification at the bottom that says to track and control my device, go to: findmymobile.samsung
So I go there, and I tell it to ring my phone, and what do you know? It rings my phone perfectly. Noise and everything.
How do I switch it over to google's service? I really don't like most of Samsung's software offerings, and would prefer to use native google apps out of convenience. I don't remember ever having this problem with any other galaxy device. Not even my tablet does this.
Can anyone help?
I haven't had any GPS problems with mine (U.S. Sprint version). What are your location settings? Make sure it's set to use GPS, and not just network or WiFi.
Find My Mobile and Android 's service are two different things FMM is Samsung's product. To make sure Google's is active, go to Device Administrators and make sure Android Device Manager is turned on. Then go to Apps, scroll to the bottom and tap on Google, then scroll down and tap on Security. Make sure 'Remotely locate this device' (and 'Allow remote lock and erase' if you want that) are turned on.

-Android Device Manager is turned on in the Device Administrators Section.
-I am not sure how to complete the second instructions. I do not see "Apps" as an option in the Settings panels. Can you advise where to find it?
Thank you!

Settings / Applications
Scroll to bottom, tap Google (on my Sprint S7 Edge, it's the very last item).
Scroll down until you see "Security" and tap there.
The first two toggles (on mine) are "Remotely locate this device" and "Allow remote unlock and erase."

Ah, I was able to find the settings under Google, however both are already checked. Are there any other settings I need to check?
{{Edit: I toggled the setting just to test it, and now it seems to be working. I don't know why this worked, because the setting was already properly configured. But it works now. *shrug* Thank you so very much for your help and patience!}}
Glad to help. I seen lots of things get fixed when you toggle a setting. Something in the settings file got corrupted, and toggling the settings on and off rewrote what should have already been there. At least that's my guess.
Hello, after last security patch (february 2019), the normal camera on the back isnt recognized by software. I mean, in any app i open, there is only front camera and back tele camera.
Searching for a solution to bring back "portrait mode" and normal, but not zoomed photos.
Thanks in advance!
Enter settings - apps - disable camera app.
Reboot and re-enable camera app. This should do the trick
I can't enable any intelligent feature in camera settings.
Can anyone help me for this?
They all are greyed.
Screenshot attached
Switch to the rear camera when you want to edit those setting, they aren't available for the front camera.

Im sorry but its only available for a perticular mode.
I just found.
What about if your rear camera is grey as well
The Greyed out toggle buttons will only be available in "photo" mode. Before pressing "settings" in camera, make sure you have selected the "photo" mode.
