THIS IS NOT MY WORK - I found both of these mods on pocketnow.com, I haven't been able to find the original creators of these. If anyone knows who they are please link to them on this thread and I'll edit the OP.

Who is the source of this? If I were to use it, I would like to know who to credit.

I would as well, but I can't find it. I read about it in the article that I've linked on pocketnow. I should just point out maybe that it was in no way through my doing that this is available. I just wanted to spread the news, that's all.

Don't know, I installed it and it's working fine on my HTC One X, still testing though.

just flashed,
on my nexus s slimbeam, seems to work, maybe not so smooth as swipe or touchpal but the dictionary seems better

Good to see it works for others too.

I installed the new camera apk (by moving to system/app etc) on my nexus s running blackbean 6 and it works! But it keeps fc'ing when i open sphere camera mode!
I deleted the old gallery app should i have kept it? Or does it fc for you too?

I haven't been able to try the Camera mod yet, I'm only linking so that others can try them. The keyboard however does work for others, and I'll try it soon.

The keyboard is working... strange to write with it if youre not used to it! ;D
But id rly like to try the sphere mode!

What are the exact permissions i news to change and should I delete the original galley apk if I'm doing this

Agreed. Camera works for Cam and Video but not Pano or Sphere (FC). Does anyone know if we must delete something, or fix permissions?

Camera apk on Nexus S i9023 stock 4.1.2 (deodexed-zipaligned) works well... I've found PhotoSphere fix, but after all, it says me: "Your device is not supported yet: Nexus S"...
No FC but this... I think that in two-three days it will work...
PS.. sorry for my english..
PS 2.. even "normal" panorama work.. no FC..

You have to fix permissions after copying it into system/app! Panorama actually works for me just sphere is fc'ing...

From recovery you can choose fix permissions.

installed the keyboard on my omega30 sgs3.. everything works fine, but its annoying with the keyboard as it doesn't seem to learn new words?

Any way of installing on a stock unrooted i9250?

Nop, you're wrong on that one. Google said that 4.2 is still called Jelly Bean because it's a minor update. Just like 2.0 and 2.1 had the same name, or 3.0 and 3.1
These things happen
I'm off topic there. Good one for this app ! I'll wait for PhotoSphere to work though

Just installed it on my Galaxy Nexus: panorama works, but photosphere crash.

Gallery Will Not Open
I flashed the files . The camera works fine, but the gallery doesn't open. When I hit the gallery icon it says "Unfortunately Gallery has stopped." I've tried reinstalling and several other avenues and end up with the same results. Is anyone else having this issue? I am running Scott's CM10 Rom.

Working fine on liquid smooth.
This doesn't affect the gallery man. Your gallery doesn't work because you flashed the 4.2 gallery. Idk why it doesn't work.it should. Didn't you back up your old gallery?in system/app

Try to clear data+cache for Gallery in Settings -> Apps -> ALL -> Gallery.
It's possible that Gallery is using old data from previous version.

My understanding since cm10/jb camera and gallery is in one apk file, maybe if you have Rootexplorer go to System/Apps/GalleryGoogle.apk then Fix Permission select Read and Write save then reboot your phone see if that works.

If it's working correctly, you'll see a blue dot. You aim the reticle so the blue dot is in the middle. It will do a countdown then take the fist shot. After that, when you move the phone up, down, left, or right, you'll see other possible blue dots. Same procedure. You can do a 360 view or just a partial. Click the shot button to finish.
It will take 30 seconds or so to compile. You'll see a message in the notification bar.
Pretty cool that it works this well on this old phone.
Picture will be in the gallery.
I have a separate, working zip if the packaged photosphere doesn't work. I can post a link.
Good luck

This might be a really stupid question, but how do we know if it worked? My app info reads 1.1.40001
