SGS2 camera rig testing, need help! :)

I'll try to shoot a short film with sgs2 in next few weeks. Managed to attach it to my dslr rig and sound will be recorded via zoom h4n & ntg2 shotgun mic. I did a quick test today with lgcamera because that is the only one that I found that had infinity/macro focus option, but no ISO settings. The stock camera is practically unusable because of the continuous focus. But lgcamera had a lot of problems and the videos know to end up with glitches and freezes sometimes. Is there a camera app or modified stock camera that has focus settings (auto/infinity/macro)? I'm on non-rooted sgs2, int version.
Here is the test video
and here is the rig

[Q] Camera flex cable (tiny) extension

Hi
I bought and disassembled a nexus 7 recently for a design project I am developing.
I was hoping to play around with the position of the front camera (an inch or so). I knew the flex cable was short but I thought finding an extension cable would be easy.
Turns out it isn't.
I wanted to ask if anyone here knows if there are extensions cables available for the camera connector used in nexus 7?
I found MANY "test cables" for iPhones but unfortunately they use a different connector, and other suggestions I find online all involve the use of microscopic soldering skills (which I don't posses)
Any input would be appreciated
Here's a photo of the connector

How to change sim card reader in XT1562?

Hello!
My Moto X Play XT1562 has contacts of sim-2 broken.
I've found spare parts like on images below.

Is it possible to change SIM-reader without heating or soldering?
As I see on image contacts are snapped to motherboard. Is it so?

Same problem here. I found a video tutorial on youtube.
Search for "Moto X play Sim slot change" , the channel is "Mobile hardware solution the mobile phone doctor"
I just bought parts in Aliexpress but haven't received them yet

The Honor 8 Pro comes with Google Cardboard, here are some pictures

The Honor 8 Pro's box can be converted into a VR headset. Here is what it looks like.

You forgot to show how the telephone needs to be placed at the bottom of the box, which makes it impossible to operate when you put the cardboard with the lenses on top of it.
Also, I found it impossible to keep the lenses close enough to the eyes to have a sort of immersive 3D view.
All in all a ridiculous gimmick. I'd rather have a nice phone cover or better quality earphones in the box than this stupid gimmicky thing.

will not be much of comfort tho,
