Couldn't find this posted anywhere so here it is for anyone that needs it.
SamsungApps won't correctly download this package on gingerbread roms so I had to downgrade to 2.2 to fetch it for everyone.
Installing this apk then running it will update your built in camera(s) firmware to version OZ. Install directly from sd card, no need to push into /system (discouraged actually, as this app will ask you to uninstall it after it runs)
I'm not entirely too sure what has changed, but why not keep it updated if the update is offered.
This is the same update offered through SamsungApps. Nothing new, just an installable apk people can use to update their firmwares if they are outdated.
Enjoy.

It doesn't change the camera itself just the firmware. The OS version won't matter. I guess I had already upgraded mine at some point because it said mine was up to date.

Can't tell a difference either. Bit its done now. Don't remember panorama being an option but I musta overlooked it.
All I noticed was slightly better handling the camera. Pictures seemed to be a little easier to blow up and edit. Not a critcal update if you ask me, but haven't delved any further into it.

Did anyone else have this upgrade their Facebook and Miui Music with blue themed ones? I want to thank my camera for it since I have no idea how it did that.
After installing this I was screwing around with my camera settings and ran the update firmware. It said I wasn't running the most current version so it updated something with my camera firmware then installed Samsung apps in my programs.
Not a bad thing I guess, its kind of like a mini market with 20-30 programs.
Light sensor is more accurate and adjust faster in this version.
Yay, this update brought back the ability to disable GeoTagging pictures that was lost in the firmware update that was released around the official Froyo update time.
This update fixed my camera lag. Awesome!

2.2 is stable, and what most of us run now. You can get a fix to those issues by reading the topic, those files have been posted you just need to push them to your phone.
*Edit* and that sucks that threads, closed; i just noticed that. At least we got a nice fix up to our system before losing more support. I think that this new LG coming out is really going to hamper development for the gs4, which is a shame because this is a nice phone.

Nothing wrong with trying version 2.0 or 2.1
Personally I like 2.2 but I need to return the phone to the store next weekend so I would like to have 2.1 or 2.0
Right now with 2.2 I have 220MB of FREE RAM (which is pretty neat)
With 1.9 I had 200MB
So yeah for 10MB-20MB I would stay hours testing and testing
I think it's worth it since the thing I like the least about Android is the lack of memory and the apps that automatically run
It's insane killing them
I've tried at least 10 programs that auto-kill, none of them works perfect
So that's why I REALLY appreciate 2.2 for now
There is one that has zero Bloatware, for sure I'd like to test that, I believe it was 2.0
I run autokiller memory operator on both mine and my g/f's gs4s and I don't have any memory issues. I already pm'd you with a link to the topic you should visit to return to stock. As far as removing bloat goes, I prefer 2.2 having it all because the roms released without the bloat had issues sycing facebook and twitter correctly and had other issues as well. I have titanium backup, if its an app i dont want--its important to know what an app does before you remove it--then that program will rip it right out. Works great for moving apps to sdcard as well.

The problem with Titanium Backup is that the apps in

I believe wifi tabs have different hardware then 3g ones. Build prop could be one fix but I think there might be a hardware check or something that is preventing video for some.

SO i take it, Netflix only works on GSM overcome Roms...Sprint tab rooted with original Rom does not work. The screen just disappears when you log in. SMH at Google. To many software/hardware versions for any company to make a app right.
i ment in like australia..
Works fine with the new Gingerbread ROM on Tmo US.
another +1 on overcome 2.0 (2.3.3) i havnt had much time to test but it loads and plays. ill see in the next couple days how it works without wifi. at home it seems to be all well.
comming from technomancer's cm7 port overcome is MUCH MUCH smoother, cleaner, faster and has none of the issues i used to have with cm...but thats what you get with ports that arent updated regularly. the older overcome worked well, but i chose cm7 because of the settings and such, and back a couple months ago there wasnt THAT big of a diff (and cm is whats on my g2...so i thought id prefer it) now after using the latest 2.0 i cant believe how well this tab functions now.
so, netflix made me switch roms, and it works!!...but i got a bonus surprise with how well overcome really is.
very good day for my tablet!
Works perfectly on my us tmobile tab with overcome beta 1 and 2.3.3! Picture quality is very crisp. Streams with no lag
Works so well that I was on the phone with netflix yesterday and was telling the guy on the phone about it, info on 2.3.3.
and the the netflix app in his email got me 6 free months of service via coupons.

Tried that first - then installed from Play Store and same results.
Had a buddy on stock 2.3.5 test it out and he gets the same freezing/crashes. Pretty sure this is an issue with the app and the I727/I727R, not the ICS leak.
Anyways, gave it a 1 rating on Play Store and left feedback that it doesn't work on our devices. Been happy with Pixlr-o-matic (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pixlr.OMatic) anyways...
I also wanted to try the new Instagram app, but now seeing that other ICS roms and stock GB are having problems, i'm inclined to think there's a bug with the first release of the app in general. Hopefully it is fixed soon!
sucks, weve waited too long for this..
mine still says compatible for all my devices including my skyrocket
I have ICS and they let me install in on Google Play.
But yeah, it's crashing like everyone is saying even if you can install it.
Personally, I've never ever had an app crash this bad where I had to hold down the power button for an extended period of time.
What a shame. Looking forward to a quick resolution.

Mine works fine until I try to take a picture myself and get to the filter screen. Are you able to take your own pics and apply different filters?
My fully stock Skyrocket is running the app fine so far. I've played around with the filters using pics from my gallery and while taking new pics.
Although now that I think of it I haven't uploaded any pics with it yet. So maybe I've just stopped before the issues occurred. I'll have to play around some more.
Hi guys,
I was wondering if there is any options left to improve sound and camera quality on the Nexus 5? My hearing isn't the greatest but I can hear perfectly fine on my moms cell and other cell phones. If I could get the volume a tad higher on my Nexus 5 that would be great. Also, another problem I am having is I have Rottweiler puppies that I am trying to get pictures of. They don't like to sit still so I am always having to refocus and when I try to refocus the pictures just look like crap. Like the lighting is always messed up and stuff. Is there any way to fix this? I use to use the volume mod and camera mod which seamed to help a bit. However, I do not see any new releases for the newest android build. I had tried installing them a while back and I could not boot so I don't think they are compatible anymore. If someone could offer me some alternatives I would be very appreciative.
I got one more question as well. If I want to fully clean my internal storage before installing a custom rom what is the best way to do so? Is there anyway to remove the folders for installed programs but still keep the files there needed for rooting? I hope that makes sense. After doing a factory reset I still see folders from previously installed programs and apps.
Thanks,
Rocky
I would seriously consider installing Jishnu's Camera Fix. Make sure to grab Version 1.5. I had similar complaints not too long ago and this mod fixed most of them. Best of all, you don't have to download any new Camera apps, this mod just tweaks pre-existing files.
The download links were removed from that thread for some reason. Here's a download link to the latest version: N5_Cam_V1.5.zip

Hiya guys,
I am still having problems with the volume on my phone. In call it is very low! I have never heard it this low. I don't know what the heck happened but it seams like its even lower than normal now. I have tried viper4android but it doesn't seam like its making much of a difference. I'm not sure if it even affects in call volume or not. If any of you guys have any solutions please let me know.
Thanks,
