No camera app? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone know where the hell the camera app is? It works from for example the tapatalk app, but not in the launcher

The N7 has a camera app, it just doesn't have the launcher icon visible/available.
Paul has been gracious enough to "make it so".. Get it here in his thread;

Hope that helps,

You can use 'Camera Launcher for nexus 7' from Google Play Store to launch the default camera app.

Any way to use the front camera as a bar-scanner?

Well what the fukkk

Didn't want to start a new thread on this so I thought I would ask here. Can the front app be tricked into being used for something like the chase bank app to take pics of checks? Anybody have any experience with this?

I think what he's saying is that this feature exists in ICS for the Galaxy Nexus but not for the Nexus S....

Is there any news on a port for touch to focus?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I am missing this feature too.
Any idea why no third-party camera app does this? Is it OS level stuff so it can not be enabled simply by app?

To the top?

Maybe a dumb question but is there a way to jump to the top of chrome or any other app...sort of way iPad n iPhone does when click near clock?

There isn't a setting anywhere that I've found that enables the fast scroll go the top of the page iPhone style. There may be a third party app or a script to run that enables that functionality. If anyone knows of such a modification, please chime in.

I was just thinking this today. To my knowledge there isn't anything. I'm going to look on market.

No, however, some apps build in functionality for jump to top.
Just from Google responses, it looks like the Dolphin HD browser has this built in

I'm not sure about this, but I don't know if that's possible as the app probably relies on some components of Sense. Just like how we can't get the Touchwiz unique features onto our AOSP roms.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
It would only be possible to use it on a Sense ROM. So I'm going to say no.

I have looked into getting zoe unfortunately it is built into the sense framework I have ectracted the apk and even changed my build.prop to the htc one but without sense the app will not open. Sorry
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda premium
Anyone know of an app that would give these same features as the htc one camera app?

[REQUEST] FB Messenger floating head style notifications for SMS

Specifically something that emulates the ability to 'open' a head and reply without entering the app.
I've had Floating Notifications for a little bit on my phone and it's just not what I'm looking for. I also used to use SMS Popup years ago which was quite good but I'd rather something less obtrusive that lets me chose when to see the popup rather than it just appearing and interrupting whatever I'm doing.
Is there anything out there like this? I'm sure I head of something when they first added it to FB Messenger but I can't seem to find anything.
EDIT: I've just installed SMS Extension but I'm not sure it's what I'm looking for.

You will have to download the launcher yourself. Here's the link- http://www.mediafire.com/?3ina0fd8fwki5fo

Installed this so big thanks to gnotelover, but one question.. How can I add more homescreens?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
Select an app or widget, and then move it to the right of the home screen and keep going. A new screen will appear.

Thanks, been trying that and it doesn't work, nothing happens...

You need to move the icon to the edge of the screen to the right, hold it there for a little. It should automatically take you to a new screen.
Thanks guys, human error... I was trying to do it with a widget, but it works with an app, not a widget..

Is this Google Now Launcher the same as the 0.10.1.920880?
Or what is the version number for this new one?

Thanks Jhall8. Do you also happen to know how to stretch wallpapers too? I can't get any wallpaper to fill up the screen even very large high def images.

Thanks again. I've tried that already but didn't bode well with my favorite walls. Tried clearing data in Google search got rid of the black bar on the right of the wallpaper but stretched way too much. Oh well.
Can anyone confirm whether the latest version of Google Search and/or the latest Google Now launcher goes back to the 6 x6 grid that Google search version 3.1.8920880.arm had? Every time I tried updating to new Search version it cuts off one of the columns which throws my whole homescreen setup and wigets off. I think the updates cut it to only 5 columns
