Hi,
as you can read in the headline I have a problem with the main camera app on my unrooted Sgs (Froyo 2.2 through Kies). Every time I take a picture with one of the special camera features (panorama, coupling shot, etc) it starts the process and everything goes.fine until it tries to show the results but it just shows the last taken picture of the standard setting.
However when I restart my phone all the pictures I did are there, even in the right order.
I think either the camera app are the gallery app are broken or even something else.
I tried to replace both apps with SGS-tools from the market but nothing happens (I think I need root for that?).
Other file browsers aren't showing the pictures too.
Anyone else having the problem?
Is it possible to temporary root my phone with z4root to replace the apps and unroot again or wouldn't you recommend that?
Thank you a lot.

Edit: it seems I can access the pictures through the file browser but it takes a looooong lag before finally showing them in the gallery app and it only shows them in poor quality (panorama pictures are pixelated like hell ) until I restart.
Its so weird since I don't have any problems when shooting in standard mode.

If you are wanting a gallery app that is smooth as homemade vanilla ice cream and as fast as a Shelby Cobra, give this one a shot. Free @ the app market. You won't be disappointed!
It mops the floor with the stock Android gallery or any other gallery that I have tried.

I've been using Quickpic on my DX for some time now. It is my go to image app. Loads so much quicker than gallery. Good call!

Just do a search on the market for Quick Pic. You'll find it. The link you supplied takes me to a redirect back tomy isp's search page @ Roadrunner.com

I've been using this on my g tablet as well. The stock gallery just doesn't scan my images (tnt lite 314)
Awesome

Just found this today. Much faster than the stock gallery, and for some reason lately my stock gallery doesn't load all my images :/
I have one question though, can we install this and delete the stock gallery? Will that interfere with anything? Cuz I don't use the stock camera or gallery. Camera360 and QuickPic are what i'm using for my photos.
camera360 (found on Amazon, not Android market) and QuickPic are both nice finds,thanks!
Pretty darn quick. I like it! Thanks for posting.
Anyone knows if you can stream pics from your CIFS/NTFS shared folder on your home server?
I've been using Quick Pic on my phone for a while now. And it's just as great on the tablet.
Hi, can QuickPic totally replace the Gallery?
I don't understand how more people are not frustrated by the fact that picture can't be renamed after taking a shot..?
I would like to be able to rename the pictures as soon sa I take them, and from stock camera I can see the picture taken, but I can't rename it. Can QuickPic be accessed from camera (review of pic - right bottom corner)?
Thanks, Cheers,
Nenad

I do know that after installing QuickPic, I went into File Explorer and navigated to my DCIM folder where my pics are stored and clicked on a .jpg file, then the box popped up asking me which app I wanted to open the file in, Gallery or QuickPic. I set the check mark to "Always use this selection" and then tapped on QuickPic and made it the default .jpg viewer. You will need to do this for each graphics format type; .png, .tif, etc.
I do not know about the camera preview because I am running CM7 at the moment on my tablet. Anyone whom has used CM7 knows the downfall of the camera quality and I try to steer clear of even using the camera with this rom.
You can do as I have stated above, setting the file associations, and see what your camera app uses for the preview when you take a pic with your tablet. Then report back to us and let us know if this, in fact, does actually replace the default preview app for photos from the camera app.
[EDIT] I have just confirmed that if you install QuickPic, when you take a shot with your camera app and tap on the preview selection, it does give you the option of setting QuickPic as the default preview app from the camera.
Nope.
I made a QuickPic a default app to preview Jpegs (and other formats), but the problem is stil there:
From Camera app, when I hit a "image viewer" button, it opens a Galery-like 1 picture screen (on back, the Camera app is shown for taking more pictures).
Is there a way to tweak Android to use QuickPic instead (like "Registry" in Win?)
Cheers
Loving this app
Great app, I've been using it for a while. Was really happy when I found it, the stock Gallery appy is garbage compared to this app.
The pics and icons load right away, instead of sitting there waiting for no reason.

I was using Serendipity 6.3 and now Darky 10.1 rom, and I never got the option to choose - it always shows the preview in stock gallery... Can I remove the it (the stock gallery)?
BTW - I just left a "review" at "App Brain":
The best gallery app (IMHO)! Let me put out the facts others didn't: I just love the "rename" option - one can take a look at the picture, and directly rename it if you want (when the picture is in full screen. It would be nice though if one could do the same from a thumbnail preview - with a long press menu - the option lacks there...). One more minor issue makes me have another picture viewer installed: - if you open a hidden (.name) picture from a folder that has more then one hidden pics, it will show this one, but will not show any oteher by sliding, as would for non-hidden pics. It would be nice to have an option "show/ hidden files", and if the option is on, it would show all the hidden pics, and if it is off, it would show none. If this issue was not present, I would have had just QuickPic installed of all the pic viewers! Once again - thanks for the best gallery app - please make it even better!
Anyone having issues with date sorting? Looking at the details of each photo, the date is right but QuickPic seems to put them in a different order
Hi all..I have a GN 7000 w/ XXLRQ. and the Speedmod kernel.
I want to take and send mms using the front camera.
The stock messaging app won't allot it.
Handcent messaging won't allow it either.Although. Handcent will allow the front camera use, but NOT allow 'limit for mms video", so you cannot send for too large of a file.
Has anyone been able to use your front camera for mms sending?
And if so... what app and *how to* do you do it?
Thanks for reading. All replies are welcomed and encouraged.
thanks again
oops.. i meant to say "Video" mms.... not a regular still photo pic, but a Video mms using the front camera... sorry for the mistake
Use kicksend......

Why don't you just take a picture using the camera app and then attach it to your mms? Why so complicated?

you are so right. Thank you for bringing that to my attention... In fact, I DID ERROR in stating my question. I wanted to ask.....
" I want to shoot a VIDEO mms using my front camera..
the stock mms wont allow it, neither will Handcent.
i did look into Kicksend briefly, but it doesn't appear to be a messaging type app,,
Does anyone know how to, or know of a messaging app that allows VIDEO mms using the front camera of out GN7000.. using XLRG.? thanks...
The app camera jb+ lets you shoot videos using the front cam.

but.... can you use that front cam to shoot and send video mms?
sure you can shoot video with the front cam... save its file ....
just cannot send it via mms...
can you link us to this app JB+ .. we'll give it a go to see if we can use the front cam to shoot and send video mms.
thanks
You can send every video stored on your phone as a mma. There is no need to have an app with that functionality built in. And the camera jb+ app is available on google play.

I can send an 'mma' as an attachment on a txt message??? mms??
Please explain how todo that?? thanks.....
Sorry mma was a typo, I wanted to write mms of course
Simply start writing a sms, click on the attachmet symbol in the bottom left corner and select video. The gallery opens and you can choose the video you want to send. Of course if the video is too big it won't work so I suggest you use the lowest possible resolution to record your video.

The OP's point appears to be being missed here.
They want to make a short video message using the Limit For MMS function (295KB max file size) AND Self Recording using the front facing camera simultaneously.
This to me appears one of the most obvious of uses for sending video via MMS yet the SGS2/ICS does not allow this.
you are correct sir.... cannot be done with stock or hand cent , go mms... sure wish you could... using the rear.. you have to hope that. your shot is framed right.. and spin the phone around twice while recording.. does not look good....
any other suggestions????
Tried JB+ ... Needs More Work
I tried JB+ (spent £1.49)
JB+ does not appear to offer the Limit For MMS function (295KB max file size) AND Self Recording using the front facing camera simultaneously.
Neither does JB+ appear to do Macro Focus unlike the Camera app on ICS
JB+ appears more user friendly/dumbed down perhaps but apart from the Panoramic View function, an amusing novelty, I think this style is a backwards step.
If they restored Macro Focus and enabled Front Facing MMS then I would think better of them.
Hi all.
I've been using the Revolution HD ROM now for a few days and i love it. The only thing im having an issue with is getting the Zoe camera to do a sequence shot, or object removal. I have watched some tutorial videos on you tube and tried it myself but i simply don't get the options when i click edit/retouch. I have shot tons of Zoe's today which would be perfect for object removal but im still not getting it. After i have shot a Zoe i click on the edit option and the only option i get is to trim the video clip down. Am i doing something blatantly stupid or something?? Any help would be appreciated its driving me up the wall!!!
Adam
You are probably recording movies not zoe shots. It only works with zoe shots.
For this, press the camera on the left side (landscape mode), so that it gets blue. Then take a picture. It will record three seconds, which you can later retouch.
What I do do is turn on the Zoe feature so that it turns blue then press camera. I must have 30 3 second clips on my phone, some of them perfect for object removal, cars driving past the camera and such but I still don't get the option. It's proper starting to do my head in now.
All you need to do is hit the edit icon and its there

I don't get that option I get a page allowing me to trim the video and the buttons cancel and save.
It's right there under retouch when your on a Zoe

Once again, you need to turn zoe on (blue) and then take a photo, not a movie.
The edit options you get are only for movies, so you probably recorded a movie. Take a still instead.
Well I flashed my Rom again this morning without wipe and all my options suddenly came up. Must have been a dodgy flash or something. Thanks for all your replys.
Good. Must have been a strange flash
I noticed that on my friends M8 there is a video record button along with the
Picture shutter button. It is placed right below the picture shutter button as shown in my attachment.
Is this possible to get on the one mini 2? My one s had this as default and I really miss it.

We can have it by uploading the last camera.apk .. but the others features will be missing because our device is not supported. Search for eye camera.apk on google
