[Q] cm camera - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to get the cyanogenmod camera without installing the rom? Like I have pa3 and I love this rom and don't wanna switch over to cm just for the camera, so is there like an apk file or zip file to install and use the cm camera on pa3?
Thanks!

Just extract the camera apk from the cm rom and flash it..

You can't flash a apk file. You install it from the phone not in recovery mode.

I didn't mean flash the apk, I meant zip it into the appropriate folders and flash it.

There's no zipping and flashing. You push the apk to system/app/, set permissions and reboot.

Idk how to do any of that :/ what should the camera apk be called? How do I set permissions? Will it still work after I update my rom or flash gapps?

I tried that, couldn't find an answer, so then I posted this thread. Like I found gallery2.apk, went to install it and it didn't install. Then I didn't know what to do after that so I gave up

Giving up won't get you anywhere.
Using a root file explorer, go to system/app/, mount as r/w, and copy that gallery apk to the directory. Set permissions to be the same as the other apk's in the directory. Reboot.

Depends on the file explorer. Usually, long press the apk after copying it, select permissions or similar. They'll need to be set as rw-r--r--.
Searching the cm thread just yielded great results for me by the way.

Hmm so I did all the things you said, but when I go to open it says gallery has stopped without even opening. What do I do now? :/

You sure you fixed permissions correctly?
Try clearing app data.

I think so, I long pressed and tapped on permissions, I got a 3x3 grid and then looked at other apps in the folder, the grids looked the same. I even went into cwm and did the fix permissions thing there also. And ya I tried that, didn't work

can I get the new Samsung keyboard(on Tab 2 7.0 with 4.04) for my Galaxy Nexus?

I'm really loving the new Samsung white keyboard on my Tab 2 7.0 with ICS 4.04.
Is there anyway I can install this keyboard on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus or
other Android tablets/phones?
Thanks!
Yeah, it should just require you to pull the APK and associated lib and put them on any other device that you want to use it on.

What do I do with those two file if I want to use it in another Android tablet/phone?

try sticking them in the same folder you found them in. Install the apk after sticking it on the new phone. it will have to be an odexed rom. And don't forget to set permissions
I have read elsewhere that Samsung apps need the touchwiz framework in order to function, but worth a try

I just tried it... after hitting "install" button, it will start installing, but several
seconds later it will tell me the apk cannot be installed...
oh well... it was worth a shot.

Stock Browser or Smart Scroll Compatible

Hello all.
I've finally been able to resolve the instability issues iv'e had with custom kernels and roms on the galaxy s4. My current issue is that i've installed [ROM] [TeaM VeNuM] The Blu Kuban S4 (Currently BETA) with the [KERNEL][SPRINT][TOUCHWIZ][5/22/2013] KT-SGS4 - MDL - KTweaker. My only issue is that i can't seem to find the stock internet browser. I tried installing the BrowserProviderProxy.apk(37kb) but it doesn't seem to be the proper file. Anyone know where I could get the file or what browser is compatible with the smart scroll?
The file is SBrowser_SPR.apk.

You don't install it. You need to use a file manager like root Explorer or es Explorer and copy the apk to the system/app folder. Set permissions and reboot.

ya man I was going nuts trying to figure out why it wasn't working. Finally I extracted that from one of the roms around and voila! Works like a charm. I don't have an account where I could upload it, otherwise I would. Same rules apply, paste it in system/app along with sbrowser_spr.apk and permissions rw_r__r__

I tried this but it did not work. I used esExplorer and copied the apks in the /system/app dir and changed the properties of the files to rw- - r- - r- -
But regardless of the apk i attempt to install, they all fail except the BrowserProviderProxy.apk.

FauxClock Problem

Hey all--just wondering why I can't seem to delete the com.teamkang.fauxclock folder from mnt/shell/emulated directory.
I've moved on to a new ROM & I'm trying out a new kernel; no longer have fauxclock app installed. Don't see why I can't remove it now. Any help?

Haha--my thoughts exactly. I've always used CWM since Gingerbread, so I'm wondering if there's any other way?
Okay so I got over myself and flashed TWRP. Now I'm looking at the file manager and I can't find the mnt directory anywhere, so I still can't get rid of the fauxclock folder from mnt/shell/emulated.
Any help?

Are you rooted?
If yes, then placing the apk in /system/app MIGHT do it.
It's been a while since I've had to do this, so my memory is a bit hazy on if that's all you have to do.

If you do this, best back up the original first.
Also you MUST set the permissions to 644

I've done that and still no luck.
Even if I put the original back where it needs to be I'm still missing the original Samsun keyboard.
Feel like I'm missing a step or doing something wrong.
I'm using es file explorer, Root explorer enabled and changed permissions after copying to system/apps.
Any other advice, am I missing a step?

Same hear, tried everything I can think of. It must be dependent on something from the new Firmware that's not in older ones.
Put your original Samsung keyboard back and restart and you will have the original one back.
