The original camera of the N6 is in system/app/googlecamera.
When you have root access.
The name is base.apk. you could backup the original and rename the HTC camera.apk.
Then overwrite.....and hope.
BTW there a lot of very good cameras in the play store, a very good one is Camera FV5.

My phone is fully rooted and i'm using chroma rom. there was no such folder but i created one and placed the apk there and changed the properties to rw-r-r. after reboot the app was there but force closes every time i run it.

If this app is pulled from a Desire HD stock ROM, it will never work on the Nexus 6. Google changed under the hood how the camera operated between Android 2.3.x and Android 4.0.x. The camera change would plague many phones, my Dell Streak included. In the Dell Streak forums was a single Android 4.0.x ROM that never made it past an early beta, simply because it was not possible to get the camera working. From what I recall the developers mentioning at the time, they would have needed to write a wrapper for the existing Android 2.3.3-compatible camera binaries so they would work with the new OS.
No one wrote such a wrapper for the Dell Streak, and it's unlikely you'll get one here. Especially as much better camera apps are available in the Play Store. Someone already mentioned Camera FV-5. I would add Camera Zoom FX to the list.

This is the ripped apk from the droid x
I got a dev over in their forum to get it for me but it's unable to install on our aria's
hoping to get it working for us cause that would be awesome
any ideas?
ERROR: Application requires API version 8. Device API version is 7 (Android 2.1-update1) looks like you will have to test drive the new froyo for aria if you want to test this unless there is a way to update api on the android, and i doubt it.

Ya i was just about to post that i went ahead and tried on a 2.2 VM and it gave same error.
maybe someone with a droid X can run the manifest viewer from here https://www.isecpartners.com/mobile_application_tools.html
and see what all its checking for.
Moved to Themes and Apps, as this is not Development related.
This app is now available in the Android Market.

Is it? I just searched for Blockbuster, didn't find it.
It was published to the Android Market by Blockbuster on accident, apparently it has to be optimized for each device so they pulled it. I installed it but I haven't tried it at all.

[Q] Market thinks my Hero is not compatible with apps

I installed CM 7.0.3 last Friday, I'm beginning to see more and more apps that say "installed" (from earlier) but trying to re-push them to my phone they now grey out my HTC Hero on Sprint saying the device isn't compatible.
I have the feeling this is an issue of the market assuming my HTC is stock and the newest builds of the apps are not compatible. Is there a way to indicate I'm using Android 2.3.3 so I can have Google Maps back?
I was able to get my Google Music beta as a .apk from someone and it installed fine manually and works great but was another just as above that wouldn't work through the market.
Hey I am having the same problem with the market not recognizing my hero. I am actually just looking for the google music beta app, =P so if you had a link I would appreciate that vmuch.
Look here

Might be what's effecting you. ""Might""

There is a copy of the music.apk but I believe you need to have the invite from Google Music Beta first before it will work. I had mine, loaded on PC went to my phone and was as I described above. Got the file from someone and loaded logged in and it works perfectly.
Thank you, I will try the links above
I would say that yes, that is affecting me, but I can't be the only one with a handset that wasn't designed to be running Gingerbread but is obviously compatible.
With all of the ROM community support of aging devices seems there must be a work around for this that is going to start to become a larger problem.
Making sure I make backups of my apps from now on seperately from my CWM recovery backups.
To get Google Music from the market, you have to edit your build.prop file. The instructions are in another thread. A simple search will find it.

change your buid.prop to say device is a "DROIDX", & youll have access to even more apps, & the google music app is in the cdma hero section for download, use the search
just cnanging the banner to droid x wont do it the apps that arnt available for are made for hdpi devices and tablets so when u try and instsall them itll say parse error
In your build.prop located in /system change your ro.opengles.version value from 65536 to 131072. So your end product looks like this: ro.opengles.version=131072
Can you edit that file with an app, or do you need to use adb? I tried using es file explorer but no dice, it's probably in use by the system eh?
Edit: forgot to enable root permissions for it...derp.

Photosphere addon in CM11 Nighty and Gapps works fine

Hi, I like report a great work of a lot of people:
Install CM11 (I install Nighty 20140206)
Install GOOGLE STOCK PACKAGE. I intall 2014-02-07 version.
Install Photosphere addon. I install v0.2.4 in 720 resolution.
Take care and read the Treats!!
I find a bug photosphere works fine, but the panoramic mode doesn't work if you install the addon, take care and think first what does you prefer. [SOLVED]
Fixed panoramic error:
Steps.
Go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
You only need install MICRO MODULAR PACKAGE of "Photosphere Camera Addon Module"
In your device execute the file browser and go to :root/mnt/shell/emulated/
in this folder create a file ".forcephotosphere" inside you write "tuna" and save. (you can copy a .txt file, rename an write "tuna").
Wake up in recovery, clean cache and install "pa_photosphere-module-4.4.2-20140123-signed.zip".
Thats all.
The instructions in original thread you can read this in the second post:
"Added a new feature to force a Photosphere Camera/Gallery install on non-Nexus devices (thanks to the AOKP team for the inspiration).
To use this feature, place a file in /sdcard/ called '.forcephotosphere'. Inside the file, type the name of the device for which you want the camera installed. Valid choices are:
hammerhead (to install Nexus 5 Camera/Gallery)
flo (or deb) (to install Nexus 7 (2013) Camera/Gallery)
manta (to install Nexus 10 Camera/Gallery)
mako (to install Nexus 4 Camera/Gallery)
tuna (to install Galaxy Nexus Camera/Gallery)
Please do not expect ANY support for problems that may arise if you use this feature"
You can see that P880 used "tuna" install.
thank you for your thread TKruzze!!!
:highfive:
You can use Photosphere in Camera
I am installing right now.
You can also just use BaNkS GApps? He also offers a camera only zip.

So far the photosphere works good for me - but since I flashed it, I can no more save pictures on SD-Card when I using the camera and video respectively.
Before I flashed it was possible to save on SD-Card.
LG running on CM11 Nightly`s

True, Camera does´t have options to choose the folder to save pics... It always uses the internal memory, remember that Nexus don´t have SD card and the google photosphere stock camera 4.4 is for Nexus, but you can move pics with a browser explorer or pics browser app I use QuickPic and is easy.

You cant. Without HTC Sense framework and the needed Sense files the camera wont work. IT is part of the reason HTC went with a software based camera. This way it forces you to use HTC or be stuck with a 4 mp camera.

I found an application called "A better camera" and it does all the things that the stock htc camera does but it can allso take pictures in the dark without the led and still maximize the light it captures (a thing that the stock camera does not do).
So i got the things i wanted from stock rom..while using the things i love to have from cyanogenmod

[Q] What's the best way to run Hearthstone on the Nexus 6 (currently tablet only)?

Hearthstone is now available for Android tablets. It's supposedly optimized for Lollipop and KitKat as well. The question is, how do we get it to run.
So far I have followed this guide to download the .apk and .obb files.
http://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone..._run_hearthstone_on_any_rooted_android_phone/
Once I install it, I can run the program but it gives me a "Only available on 6" and larger tablets". Sounds like we need to change the DPI or the device name on the build.prop.
Can someone help figure out the best way to do this? The guide calls for Xposed which is unfortunately not available for Lollipop. The main thing is that I don't want to change my DPI for the entire phone just to run the game.
Thanks!
I'm in the same boat, also have a nexus 6, eagerly wanting to play some hearthstone!
Tried changing the DPI of the whole phone and the game runs fine, just need someone to patch the apk or try and find another workaround for the screen check
Yeah I figure we can come up with some sort of workaround to make it less inconvenient!
They're having some success at this link, using a modified APK:
