[Q] Apps that use Camera not working with Darkys ROM 9.5!

I just installed Darkys ROM 9.5
A great ROM but all my apps that use camera are FC'ing or giving the message that camera failed.
This includes, Goggles, Evernote etc.
However, the camera app itself is working fine?!?
Anyone encountered this problem and have any idea of a solution?
Thanks!

I guess it is the same problem I experienced with 9.2!
If you deleted the email.apk, third party apps stop working! Does not make any sense at all but that's how it is!
In the darky forum, someone posted a fix.

Yes its a standard Darky problem search Darky posts and you find it .

Thanks!! what do i do with the attached file. Where do I install it? Or is it a flashable zip.
I searched in draky's rom thread, but with over 3K pages its getting a bit out of hand!

ok..this is weird. I got all the apps that use the camera like goggles and camtranslator are working again. But the camera app itself is now missing.
There is no camera app in my application drawer anymore.
I was using the hacked camera..so tried restoring using the scripts in sgs tools but still no camera.
Anyway, I just downloaded camera 360 and its working fine, so its not too big a deal!
thanks!

Oh, if that happens, there is also a fix to restore the cam apk. ;-) Check darky forum or wait till later so I can upload it. I don't have access to my files right now...

[MOD] GPS FasterFix Europe

GPS FasterFix Europe
What does it do : It will change/create your "gps.conf" file, so your phone will connect with the Nokia NTP Servers in Europe instead of Google. You should get a faster GPS fix.
Installation : apply zip in CWM Recovery
For which ROM´s : All

All NTP Servers listed here, you can edit "gps.conf" and change the server with your prefered one : http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/
-------------------------------------------------------
Hidden menu fix : use nokia servers & avtivate SLP Auto Provision
all credits to conceptics @ modaco !!
To get it to work as flawless I have made the following adjustments that seem to work well:
1. Go into the LG hidden menu
2. Go into GPS Test
3. Go into System Settings
4. MOLR Protocol (is set to User-Plane)
5. SULP Setting -> SLP Server Setting, I created a new one for the nokia servers (slp address: supl.nokia.com, port: 7275, no cert and no TLS setting)
6. SLP Auto Provision is activated
I'm in Switzerland and with this settings (supl.nokia.com), the GPS fix is relatively quick and works consistently within about 10 seconds of starting Google-Maps.
Still not sure if this is indeed FR15 related or if the problem is purely SSL Certificate related. If it is SSL Certificate related wouldn't the problem be much more widespread and wouldn't google already have updated the certificate by now?
Anyway, hope the above works at least as a temporary workaround.

this fix really works like a charm, you nearly get an instant fix !
access hidden menu :
In launcher pro you just press and hold on one of the home screens until a menu shows up.
Select "Shortcuts" then choose "Activities" scroll down until you find com.lge.hiddenmenu.
tap on it then tap on HiddenMenu. now you have a shortcut on the home screen.
if you have cooked ROM without hidden menu, you can use my zip to install in recovery first :

First, the Optimus 2X doesn't have a gps.conf file at all, so the fix is about creating the file, not modifying it.
Second, this fix works for any ROM.
Third, thx for sharing

my zip can´t be the reason for this behavior ...
it just copies "gps.conf" to system/etc
if you like to remove it : navigate to system/etc with root explorer, mount rw, and delete "gps.conf"
that´s it !

does it work for the stock rom???

Nice fix, just pushed the file with root explorer on system/etc, now faster fix work on Stock Rom (V10c).

Even though we didn't get fully working google now voice search, but we still have s voice
thanks to Wanam for S Voice for non S3 device
if you want S Voice on your device, you must delete some of the applications which is you think not really important to you, then you can have it

okay this is the final solution, you dont have to delete as much as u can to free system space,
what i deleted on my system/app is, CMWallpaper and on system/media is boot animation, thats all, and you will get more free space

S note still not working even after tweaks (rom xxls1)

I recently flashed the preview of the stock JellyBean for our device on my phone. Thanks to all those who made it happen. Of course it came with some bugs and there were various bugfixes. Flashed them and followed all guidelines, everything but one works -- S NOTE!
I have SNote_Q1.apk and
QuickSnote_Q1.apk in /data/app
SMemo_Q1.apk
SMemoProvider_Q1.apk
SNoteQ1_Provider.apk in /system/app
as the forums and threads I've read instructed us to do.
But S Note still doesn't seem to work. It always force closes when I initialize it. The pop up note works though.
A thread said you should first start it from the widget before the it will work but I do not have the widget. Any help please? Pls be kind. Thanks!

Ok, make it simple.
1) go classics jb beta rom thread and looking at the last few pages, please find mr. Vijai post which he post the link for the snote app which contain around 74mb++.
2) After downloaded that both file, copy to your smartphone sd card.
3). Using root explorer, copy both file into system----app.
4) fix permission and restart.
5) After phone reboot, find snote widget and lauch the snote for the very 1st time.
This method are almost works for all jb leaked rom.

Kids mode apks?

Can anyone pull the kids mode apks from their tab and post them for me? I have a debated Tom that I love but my wife wants those apps back...
The only ports I can find are from the 5th and they don't quite work on this tab.
Probably don't need all the apps within the app but will need the kidsapps, kidshome, installer, landingwidget, and parental control apks...
Any help with this would be awesome.

Well, I would probably be surprised if that Kids Mode began to work. Firstly, it's this version of the apk for Kitkat. Second, it needs Touchwiz. Correct me if I'm wrong.
At least on CM 12.1 I couldn't run a version for Android 5.1.

someone will probably have to have it installed then pull app data for libs folder if there are any. then you would need to flash the /data/app/name of apk folder with libs to the correct area and also the main .apk to /system/app
but then again some manufacturer's apps are not compatible with aosp or cm based roms and need porting to work
(if that is what you are running)

Pls don't put the installer file here, my device has it.

Having had a crack at this myself... On my newsed SM-T325 I just got myself. I can only suspect that the clue is in the name seckidsmode... Sec here referring to security al-la knox mode perhaps?! no, not so much as full on knox, as such. But is still tied up somehow in as far as once its gone its gone. At least this is what I found when I tried to reinstall it back onto a rooted, but otherwise stock... And 0x0 valid SM-T325.
You might not care to hear it, but the only way I was able to recover (Twice now, as I write this!), was to re-flash the current BOC1 Firmware on top of everything again. Thankfully this hasn't tripped up my Knox... yet though I need to re-install TowelRoot + SuperSU again, unlike Knox however, you can install, and use this Kids Mode while rooted. But, as to reinstall it again after you've yanked it?
Well lets say that I'm kinda interested to know that One too...

Mute point now... But, I was on Stock at the time.
The only way I managed at the time to recover the Kids Mode, was to re-Stock, and to not removing it to begin with.
