Hidden (kinda) Tiny Planet Feature! - Nexus 4 General

I haven't seen this talked about too much. Did a search and nothing came up as well. But if you take a full 360 photosphere, you can make it into a Tiny Planet!
Instructions:
1. Open your camera and switch to Photosphere mode.
2. Using Photosphere, take a FULL 360 picture. You must hit EVERY spot possible.
3. Save the picture and allow it to render.
4. Open your gallery and tap on the picture. If you did it right, you will have the option to share to Google Maps (using the share icon) and also in the bottom right will be a button to turn it into a Tiny Planet, which opens up more options.

I asked about this in another thread. Apparently this was a early feature of photo sphere but got removed in final version. Let's hope we see it make a come back would be awesome!!

I'm running the latest OTA and it is there. But like I said, it has to be a FULL 360 photosphere. Meaning you need to get everyone single spot you can see. This will also allow you to upload your photosphere to Google Maps.

Ohh cool. Will try it out. Thanks

Dude this is cool! Thanks!

I can't believe everyone with a Nexus doesn't know about this neat-o feature.. Seeing as it'd exclusive to your phone..

Looks cool.

Also if you take the photosphere and flip it 180° in the gallery editor, and before saving go to the last tab in the editor (the one with the +/-) the first option will be the tiny planet, but this time it would create an inverse tiny planet. The sky in the center and the surface on the outside. A little more difficult to create, but can look really cool.

Nexus 4 has native emoji support

If this has been posted before my apologies. After getting my nexus I combed threw the settings and discovered that the keyboard has native emoji support. Now not only can you see emoji but you can send them now. To enable them go into your android keyboard settings then goto add on dictionaries. Enable emoji for English. Next go down to the advanced keyboard settings and enable switch to other input methods. Lastly go back to keyboard inputs and check the input iWnn IME. Once all these steps are down you will have a small globe icon on your native keyboard. Press this to switch to your new emojis! ?

When you say keyboard inputs do you mean input languages? I can't seem to find the last step.
Nevermind, I found it, you have to go into settings->language&input I was doing everything before that from the keyboard.
Very nice of you sir
Thank you

I'm also an my iPad and I can see them just fine, I'm sure Android doesn't support the iOS 6 emojis though. ??????????????????????? how does those look on 4.2? I won't have my Nexus 4 until Monday/Tuesday so I won't be able to test these

I wish I could tell you, I'm also currently playing the waiting game with google .
I too would like to know if iOS 6 emojis work on 4.2 , if someone can tell us that would be great.
They show up just fine on my GNex.. so I would imagine do on the N4 as well.
This is great, thank you! I use to have to copy and past within the messaging app on my galaxy nexus when it had cm10

Total Android noob and bought the N4 last Sunday. Did a factory reset and seem to have lost the iWnn IME file on my phone and can't use the emoji feature.
Any help?

It's been reported that a factory reset gets rid of the Emojii iWnn IME app. I think it's available on the Play Store anyways? I'm not sure. If anybody can pull it from their phones and post it here - that'll be great.

Can't use same camera effects taking pics as editing pics?

Does this make sense to anyone? There are a few nice filters in the camera app, granted I don't particularly like filters. I just want to experiment with them from time to time. If you edit a pic already taken, you get different effects/filters than you get before taking the pic.
I'd rather apply my filter/effects after taking the pic rather than before. But doesn't seem that's possible. I've already gotten an app for this, so I don't need any suggestions. But kind of bothered HTC chose to do this.

Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
All I got from the OP was I don't like a feature I know I have no control over...useless. Camera and the editing software on Android phones are generally two seperate programs, so yes something (filter, effects, etc.), that the developers choose to leave out of one side of the software is not intertwinable with the omitted functionality of the other program by default. You would need to build or more likely wait fora custom Rom that incorporates the feature you 'prefer' which will probably never happen.

Scrapbook

Maybe I'm missing something, but Scrapbook doesn't seem to be working correctly for me. I searched, but could only find info about YouTube not working right, which I already knew how to fix.
I remember, at least I think I remember, a demo of Scrapbook where they would be on a webpage and the would use the S-Pen and circle a portion of the page and it would save it, basically for later reading. When I use it, it basically takes a screenshot inside the circle I draw and only shows that.
Was I wrong in my thoughts about Scrapbook, or am I doing something wrong?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
yes whatever you circle on the webpage is shown in the scrapbook, but the web address is listed right above that and you can click it to go back to that webpage...
also how did you get the youtube videos to work???
I believe you can click share on the YouTube video.
Edit: just tried that and it didn't work. Forget I posted lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk 5
You have to remove updates to get YouTube to work like it does in the demonstration. Guess Scrapbook doesn't work with updated YouTube. Hopefully Samsung releases an update that allows it to work properly.

there isnt one. widgets will be like before, a long press on the home screen brings up a menu where you can chose widgets.
I'm excited, I'll be getting it at launch.
It's a very well designed device from the looks of it.
As for the video, I wish he would've shown more of what's new in 4.4.
I know what YouTube, earth, chrome, calendar, the play store and keep look like...
I would've liked to have seen more of the new launcher and how widgets are added, the new way search is handled, etc.

I think this is an earlier build of kitkat, it has the old youtube and the version number says KeyLimePie. The screenshots that were leaked seem to show the more updated version.
Edit - as said in video description

ill be honest with you, i feel the same way about hangouts. ive been replacing hangouts with gtalk until about a month ago, for that exact reason. hangouts did slightly improve, thats why im using it now, but it is not the best app. oddly, it runs quick without issues on my nexus 7, and on my friends note 2. but on the n4, it has issues. hopefully its update will correct that for the n4, and hopefully it runs as perfect on the n5 as it does on my n7.

I am pretty sure that Google has smoothened out the hiccups you speak of. I for one think that the Hangouts and SMS merge is a smart one. I bet users who has never used Hangout will now get familiar with it.

I just hope they give some options to hide groups of people and separate sms chats from hangouts. I don't need everyone from Google+ showing up. Most I don't talk to, but like to follow for news ect.

How do you send multiple pictures at 1 time

On my galaxy you just hold and press 1 pic and then you can select as many more as you want so you dont have to send them 1 at a time. Am i doing something wrong or missing something? I cant seem to send multiple photos at 1 time

There are 2 ways. The first is click the Paperclip icon, go to your gallery, select your pic. It then is put into your message. Now just repeat the process (click paper clip...). It will place a pic everytime you do it. Second way is click the paper clip, add your pic, then click paper clip again but this time click the Slide option.

You can go to gallery, go to camera shots (so all your pictures show up), then press the share button on the top right of the screen. Then each picture you touch will be shared with out going back and forth between apps.

I was speaking about Sense 5.5. I've been switching back and forth between InsertCoin, Flex's & Hawk's 5.5 ports from the beginning and that doesn't work and I'm pretty sure it doesn't work on Sense 5 either.
