The error is a spoof, just reboot, it installed.
With that said, anyone else have screen dim when loading the new LG Camera. When I pull battery and reboot the dimmed screen goes away, any other work around, as I hate pulling the damn battery.

Is there an easy way to root the official OTA? I want to remove some bloatware and flash the LG cam. The reason I'm on the stock official is because of the baseband which made a huge difference for me (and as far as I know, there's no other way to get it)
Thanks in advance

hmm.... It gets stuck at step 5...

See post 4 above. Xboarder provider rooted v21e OTA, you can flash over the LG update. It will preserve the baseband. Then simply flash the LG Camera.
Xboarder also provided a bloat remover.zip that you can apply that removes all the TMobile bloat. It could not be simpler.

If I understand correctly, this will replace the Gingerbread camera with the Froyo camera. It doesn't sound like it's possible to have both on the phone at the same time -- is that right?
The reason I ask is that I'm really much happier with the way the Gingerbread camera works with the flash; the Froyo camera generally overexposed nearby things, but the new camera does a good job of regulating the flash and shutter. I'd like to have all the bells and whistles (that I haven't needed yet but might be handy someday) from the Froyo camera, but I'm not willing to sacrifice the improvement in flash photos (which is something I do pretty often).

[Mod] Bravia engine for Better picture taking and video recording

ive already posted a modded camera with a modded mediaprofiles.xml for better camera abilities, but after doing lots of research here is another mod to add on top that will make your camera top of the line
ESPECIALLY in darker settings(SINCE THE SGS4G DOESNT HAVE A FLASH)
originally the .zip comes from temasek HOWEVER i revised the script to work for our phone
Directions:
download
put onto sdcard
go into cwm
flash
enjoy
It will automatically be set in, so just use your camera
Thanks:
temasek
Sony

Downloading and flashing! I hope for this cam to be faster.
Edit: Done, it works.

dsex does it again lol
Thank's aren't asked for but aappreciated

Will any apps (3rd party camera apps specifically) take advantage of the mediaprofiles.xml file?

the bravia engine has never been introduced to the sgs4g yet, the camera mod with the xml file from the booster should be the same from the ICBINB one

The quality of the Camera is not great at all - so I was so happy to find this post...
Is there any way I can apply this mode without flashing? For example - something like the way APKs are installed. Or pushed somehow ?
I have a rooted SGS4G but no CWM.
I do apologize if my questions sound stupid. I don't have that much experience. Just enough to root my phone and remove the bloat...

Why not flash a Dr.Honk kernel with Odin and you will get cwm/ ext 4 and voodoo? If you need help you could always message me and I'd be willing to help

Why would he flash Dr. Honks kernel? Why Odin?
If he is rooted on GB he can use SGS Kernel Flasher to get one of BH kernels with CWM.
There are detailed directions here.
We need to keep it simple for noobs

Call me noob or even better - call me lazy
I was just trying to find out if there is an easy way to "install the mod" for the camera....Avoiding flashing and using different kernels...
It's a shame having such a Camera and not using its full potential.
I don't know how difficult it could be for a Developer to create an APK.
Think everybody having SGS4G will really appreciate having such an APK installed on his/her phone...
Another thought (if its possible to create such an APK) - why don't you put it on the Android Market? Suppose there are a lot of SGS4G owners that are not familiar with this forum ...
lumin30 -> thanks for the link
BTW - I've read almost all the posts in the section for the SGS4G... I just don't want to "dig deeper" in my phone. Rooting and tweaking it is enough for me. I'm not a big fan of Overclocking...

Well the tweaks we've put together make overclocking useless,
there are apks out there that install tweaks such as sdcard booster which installs the readahead tweak, but really cwm is the best way to flash tweaks
As for your answer you can get the apk root explorer or any other file manager with root access and move the files to their appropriate place as well as fix their permissions, but you would really have to know what your doing to use that method which is why flashing is actually the easiest ways for users even noobs :/ its a complex tweak
If you need help I know the community/ myslef would be more than happy to assist you so that you could enjoy your phone that much more

If I remember correctly to open a dev account with google to post things, even free things, costs like 50 bucks. Then you have the issue of people installing down rating and possibly reporting it as a fake/fraud.
Even if you post it and forget it that is money out of your pocket. And a potential for people to attempt to defame you.
I know this because I helped a friend create a theme for golauncher and OMFG the headaches. Finally just pulled it. It was limited using the tools provided by google and still had people *****ing and moaning about it not working on their phone...
BTW just because you install a custom kernel doesnt mean you HAVE to OC. It gives the option and opens the doors to other improvements.

Oh man I don't remember the thread it's from... for that maybe someone could post the zip or which thread it's in.
Try searching for "LG cm7 cam". I'm sure it'll only he for our device. And just to be sure just make a backup of your ROM then flash it.
In my opinion its amazingly... freaking amazing. Especially how you can adjust the exposure when it's too dark for the camera, and also for the camcorder.

building from source is fine & a lot of people really waited for someone to start posting/hosting the builds additionally to xkonni. (Thank you from my side, too!)
I think he just asked you that if you really would like to contribute & develop for CM10.1 on the Ville you please contact them on irc as they would love to have some additionally developers but you need to organize it somehow.
But if you don't then please don't state that you are
