Good Slideshow Maker app? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried 5 or 6 slideshow makers/video editors in the past week. They all seem to be full of ads, and only a couple have a paid version that's reasonably priced. Most look shady. I just want to create short videos from photos with decent transitions. Music is optional but would be nice. Suggestions? Maybe an XDA test APK?

Thanks. I have Pinnacle Studio on my PC which does a great job. Looking for something on my phone. I don't see an app from them.

Better Camera App in the Future

Do you guys think there will be a better Camera app available for the Nexus 7 that will fix any color issues or distortions and just make those 1.2 MP as perfect as possible? I'm not trying to get beautiful, gorgeous pictures (or videos) out of this thing, I just want a few photos and vids here and there like any other person would.
So do you think a better Camera app will eventually be available or is the current one as good as its gonna get? Thanks in advance.
Depends on what you call 'better'. Vignette is available in the Play Store and is now Nexus 7 compatible.

Batch converter for MP3's to make them more Nexus 7 compatible

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good MP3 converter that I could use to lower the bitrate on 360 MP3 files? They are talk only educational files (study material for a licensing exam) but they are inexplicably recorded in 256kpbs making them over 6GB together. As they are basically a lecturer talking I really don't need such high quality and since our 16GB Nexus devices only come with 13GB of usable space, that's almost half the space right there!
So what do you folks use to batch convert? I've only found ways to convert one at a time and...like I said...there's 360 files! LOL
I use dbPoweramp. Works quite well and is multithreaded.

[Q] Facebook app?

Has anyone found a good Facebook tablet app that looks nice on the Nexus 10? I'm fed up of Facebook giving us a disgusting upscaled phone app.

I use friendcaster but it doesn't have a polished look, it's just practical.
Most of the time I end up with the website version.
I'm wondering this too, the fb app is terrible on here

Friendcaster is probably one of the better apps for Facebook.
Offers duel pane viewing, color change, etc
Basically it's tablet optimized unlike the official facebook app.

Flipboard does the job for all your social networks. Looks great on the large resolution.

Where's Friendster I can't find it, all I get is some gaming app when I search for it in Google play.

I use Flipboard also. I like that it is kind of a one stop shop for things I want to read. You have social networks, news sources, and the like. Plus the app is quite polished.
That's friendcaster not friendster

What are your favorite PAID APPS?

Just got a $25 Google Play giftcard from my GF as a part of my Valentine's Day gift (part 2 will be the Galaxy Gear 2 when it comes out!).... so my question to you guys is what are some of your favorite paid apps for your Android?!
PS- I don't really play games on my phone, so game recommendations are appreciated, but I probably won't buy any!
You NEED ROM toolbox pro (there's a sale right now) it has all the goods you need. And Titanium backup if you don't have it.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
I agree. Those two are very good, but also I love the SlideIT keyboard. You can try the free version for like two weeks before buying. Poweramp is a great media player that I bought way back on the OG Evo, but I do like the stock one on this phone. Drastic is a great DS emulator if you wanna catch up on Pokemon. And of course there is XDA Premium or HD.
@daniel4653 Already have ROM Toolbox Pro and Titanium Backup (with pro key also)
 @negativzeroe Already have SwiftKey.... I live and die by it! haha also I do not use my phone to play music and not too big on gaming on my phone as I said in OP and already have Tapatalk.
Thanks though fellas.... bring on any more!
Who can forget 3minit…… I love smart volume + and also of Course tapatalk pro

I don't ever do games but I tried Zen Pinball's Empire Strikes Back and wow that's amazing. Its only like a buck and really shows off the phones screen. Battery sucker though.
Lapse It PRO is a really awesome time lapse/stop motion app. You can record in full hd with pro, me and the kid been making Lego movies with it.

The S4 can already record in slow/fast mo.
These are most of my paid apps. I see others recommend them too and you've already got some too.
Titanium Pro, RomToolbox, RootExplorer, Greenify (paid/donation) version, Smart IR Remote, Mobile Odin Pro, SuperSU Pro, 3Minit (paid) and iSyncr for iTunes.

Lol I shouldve emphasized the stop motion animation part, it's actually really cool, you can set it to auto so you don't have to keep pausing and recording and it's extremely fluid. If you like making stop motion movies anyway.

Share HDR Content Here!

I wanted to create a place where we could all share HDR video content we find online, so post your YouTube links for any cool HDR videos you find!
Here's one:

Hdr doesn't work unless the app forces it on which only the Amazon app from Samsung can do for now so viewing these videos is useless until we find out how to force hdr on. If you don't believe me I can show you a logcat that shows the Amazon so forcing it on but not YouTube

Do we really need a topic just for this?

Why not? HDR Content is really scarce and it would be great to be able to take full advantage of our screens by helping each other out.

HDR is going to be a revolutionary thing in terms of TV image quality (at least on OLED displays). For smartphones though... it's cool that Samsung included the capability, but it's BARLEY a thing in the TV world. Smartphones aren't going to see anything meaningful with HDR for a long time. I tried watching an Amazon episode when I first got the phone (one that has HDR enabled on my LG OLED 4K TV) and nothing in particular let me know any type of HDR was enabled. Maybe it wasn't working yet... maybe it's not working at all. Either way, it's probably nothing but a gimmick. When it becomes mainstream and used on YouTube, that's when I'll care.
