Can anyone make or find a hacked camera and musicplayer apks so that at ten percent they will open and use the power button to snap a pic. I tried a hacked camera apk from a cappy rom but it didn't work any ideas?

These seems like such an oddball feature that I can't think of any reason it would exist for any phone... Why would you want the unit to auto-snap a picture when it reached 10% battery?

i did not read the OP correctly that is weird. What i was wondering is, is there a way around being able to take pictures when your battery level is low. Such as at 10% or below the camera does not let us TAKE pictures at all which is kind of crappy IMO. anyone can help with that would be great.

Yeah use the power button to take the pic and also to let us take pictures and use our music players and camera under ten percent battery it is like that on all galaxy s roms I would do it but I'm to inexperienced just looking for some help. As I stated the apks from the cappy do not work on the infuse all I get is fcs.

Poor grammar strikes again.
The OP is asking for a Camera that operates under low battery conditions, and can take pictures with the power button in addition to the on screen button.
Gotta admit, I was scratching my head on this one. Seems like these could be useful features. But it also seems like at that low of battery percentage one might also want to conserve power?

You can conserve power by.... not using the Camera app? Rather than having it forced on you.
Let me rephrase this I'm not looking to conserve I want to be able to use my camera and musicplayer under ten percent battery and use my power to take a picture

The updated Infuse Rom will allow both functions for what you are looking for. Infused v1.5.3
So far, no music lpayer hack.....
Decompile camera.apk ...its in the smali code...I don't recommend running the camera below 10 percent personally. Samsung put that feature in there for a reason...just my opinion

I don't see a reason to also implement that into galaxy music play. It's like travelling home from school just to find out battery is below 10%

nothing really... i just bought it and used it, i did not mod it..
I was able to turn it on, just one time... and it get to samsung and the sound from the booting screen made a strange noise, after that im not able to turn it on but it still looping on battery like the video
Then its not likely a software brick.
Its extremely possible that the battery is bad or that a wire may be loose inside

ok, ill buy a replacement, thank you!
Okay I've seen people already posting about these issues, but nothing ever seems to be figured out. Either the thread dies, or the person swapped it out. Well I'm not able to do that. So here we go.
I spent $20 on an I727 Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. The phone did not come with anything, but I have an S4 charger, and a Note 3 charger. So I figured wth I'll be fine in that department.
Anyway. The phone will not charge. It says "Charging paused temperature too high". If the phone is off, and I try to charge it, it shows a caution sign next to the battery.
When I got it, it was running some version of ICS. I flashed JB, but the problem is still there. Needless to say the cache partition has been wiped, and I have done a couple factory resets. If I'm not mistaken, these guys shipped with gingerbread. So if someone thinks that will help, I'll try it, but I don't want to use that old system.
So I looked into other fixes. I saw that a possibility is the charging ic. Is that located in the usb part, or the actual mainboard? I'm not good with soldering so I may be out $20 if that's the case.
So what do you guys think?
Also gonna add this. Phone was not In use for around two hours. I feel like that is waaaay too hot.

For comparison, here's my note 3 battery info. Running much cooler, and been in use muuuuuch longer.

I wish someone had some input. anything, guys.
I called Samsung, and the device is out of warranty. So the repair cost is $70, in case anyone wants to take this route. I do not. They couldn't tell me what was wrong.

I'm guessing it's the battery. I'd try a different one if you can or buy one. They're not that expensive.

Thanks. I ordered one last night off Ebay (all the Amazon ones were in China). It's supposed to be here in 2 days.
Have you tried to charge it by using usb cable connected to a computer? I think it could be charger problem, both chargers for s4 and note 3 have higher output current。Try a different charger with lower output current eg 1A.

The phone itself will limit the charging current, unless overriden via custom kernel, and since he's flashed a different rom I'd have to rule that out. Hopefully it's just a bad battery as that would be the cheapest fix...

I have tried using my desktop's usb port. Same thing. The only way I can get this thing to partially charge is by wrapping it in a cold pack. It gets that hot. Obviously I leave the battery out now for fear of a fire. Should have my replacement battery on Thursday.
Let me just add this really quick; just from the little bit that I have used this little guy, I think I may actually like it more than my note 3 (AT&T). It's just so easy to customize. With the Note 3, I'm so limited in what I can do.
Got the battery today. The problem still exists. What's next?

just a suggestion
1. open the phone as best as you can (remove battery and sim,memory cards)
2. use a q tip and rubbing alcohol and wipe everything you see, do it a few times
3. wait for 5 minutes, put phone back together
4. see if it works if not try step 5
5. remove all items again and put phone into 2 freezer (sandwich bags). I would suggest leave in there for 2 hours
6. remove from freezer and let sit for 30-60 minutes at room temp to warm up
now try charging
if that fails you can go extreme and freeze the phone remove and try charging it right away
let us know what happens
it was probably water damaged and shorted some of the circuits inside
Will try that out tomorrow. Thanks for the advice. I will let you know how it goes.

I meant to open up the device as best as you can, try to get to the guts of it and wipe clean with rubbing alcohol.

Still planning on trying today, but life is getting in the way. I'll pull the mainboard and usb port completely, and rub em down. The screen is fine, so I see no reason to subject it to anything.
Edit: I also got a hold of a local repair shop, and all the guy said was "Hi, honestly it's not worth fixing, you are better off buying a new phone. since the value of S2s is pretty low." He obviously doesn't get that this is not my main driver, and I am doing this for the sake of knowledge and fun.
Okay. I did the alcohol thing, which made it able to charge while powered off. It used to not even do that. It's in the freezer now.

Unfortunately the freezing method did not help. Also the moisture indicators show no signs of moisture in the phone.

Do any of you use extended battery for s4?
If yes then which?
which one is safe to use and has a good capacity?
I'm using 4360mAh Extended Slim Battery.

does this battery fit into the phone with the original back cover?
Or does the back cover need to be changed?

You can use the original back cover because the extended battery has the same dimension as the stock one
So this is not going to work with 9505 international?
Mostly if it won't fit they will send an extra back cover so it will fit perfectly!
