I have the stock OTA ICS update on my Droid 4. I have always hated the stock camera app on the droid series. I like Camera Zoom FX way better. So, I changed the dock to use it instead, easy enough, and then set the app to be my default camera app.
Now, how do I change the camera app on the lock screen? I had thought that setting it to default would do it, but no. Also, cannot seem to find settings for it.
Help anyone?
Thanks.
Hmm... No replies... Does that mean you cannot change the stock apps on the unlock screen?
Maybe you can try to delete the camera app thru root explorer and then rename the app to camera
Worth a try
Do not attempt without backing up first!

I've been messing with my Captivate a lot for the past few weeks, rooted and flashed once I got sick of waiting for an update. I've tried most of the major roms out there and am having a great time learning about it all.
I have a problem and would appreciate some advice on the simplest way to solve it. Whenever I try to enter the image gallery, I get a black screen for a few seconds, then it vibrates a few times and kicks back to the home screen and gives me a failure notification. It does this regardless of what rom I'm running so I'm assuming it has something to do with the file structure on the card? If I data reset, will this fix it?
I looked around but didn't see an apparent answer for this specific issue. Thanks
Try this, download sgs tools from market. Goto uodate stock apps select gallery

Hmmm, I downloaded it and it doesn't seem to do that much. I don't see any options like that for sure. What is that program supposed to do?
After I posted I realized the app I referenced is not on the market.
Have you tried deleting app data
settings, applications, manage, all, gallery, delete data

wow, thanks! That did it. I just upgraded the stock app and it's fine now. This app looks really useful, what are some of its other uses?
Secret codes gets you into a bunch of useful things
like lbs test mode for gps
the updated gallery you installed is also supposed to help battery somehow.
I do not use it all too much though, but I keep it around

Hi everyone I want to remove the default phone and internet app from my phone. I know how to remove others by just deleting the apk in system/app like the gallery and FM radio, but the phone app is different you get force closes.
I'm using dialler one and opera instead but the default ones still pop up sometimes and because I've changed my dpi to 192 the phone app looks crap and annoying.
Can someone help with this please I did a search and couldn't find anything but to be honest the search in the xda app is below par.

Hi, i use Titanium Backup for this. It can backup, freeze and uninstall any app.
First i freeze system apps i do not like, so they are still there are can not be used by user or system. If there is no side effect after using mobile and reboot i uninstall app.
Hope this helps - Cheers
You need to be rooted to remove system apps.
Yeah thanks I am rooted used titanium never even thought of trying that have done the phone app but still unsure on the android browser.

Hi
then first freeze it with Titanium, it doesn't hurt
My phone is rooted and I took the liberty of uninstalling some of my stock apps. One of which was the stock music app. I have no need for it since I use Poweramp. However, to my surprise, I found that it leaves the controls in the notification drop-down when it is not installed (as shown in my screenshot).
Since I didn't back up the app, I have no way or reinstalling it. Does anyone know where I can download the app or if it is possible to remove the controls without reinstalling the app?
As of now you have to have it insralled to get them to go away,

Just put this in system/app and reboot.

Thanks! I didn't even have to reboot. As soon as I put it in /system/apps, the controls went away.

Hey
Running aokp ROM 4.1.2
I turned on my phone this morning and noticed my set wallpaper was missing. I tried to locate it but my photos were all gone. I went into another photo app and they showed up so I am lost what to do.
Shortly after my phone rebooted and was loading for 5 mins. Eventually it loaded up and still I can't not access my photos in gallery. Very strange so I forced closed the app but reasons i dont know as i cannot get it back as normal!
Is their a way i can just use quickpic as it shows all my pictures and delete the gallery stock app? also i am wondering if their is a camera app that would work best with quickpic, as the stock cam will try to find the stock gallery app to store my pics to.
Thanks if anyone can help me.

Can Antone out there help me get the Google launcher, gallery and camera working properly? I've tried a few fixes on this site and others for the launcher but none work for me although some HTC one owners are reporting no problems.
When I try open the launcher app it crashes right away. I've changed the defaults and put in a new sys/lib file also but still just crashes on start.
Camera works as well as video but crashes when I try use pano or photos here. The gallery app same. Crashes on start. Please help if u can. Thanks

What ROM/Kernel are you using? Are you rooted? That sounds like the kinda errors I get when I flash a new base without wiping.
I'm rooted but not on a custom ROM. And I didn't flash anything just installed the apk files. It works perfect on my galaxy S2 although the OK Google voice search only worked for a day. But won't work on my one. ?? I really want it on my one though
