[Request]Jacked camera and musicplayer

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%

Lol. I have been putting the hacked camera in every port I've done. Haha

I have no idea how to fix this. I've tried three roms eaglssblood ice singhui and Hellfire Phoenix. I installed Trinity on Phoenix yet it is still draining battery. Why?

Try calibrating your battery.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

There is a rogue app in your drawer. download watchlist app, it will keep track on other apps which are hogging your system.

Battery calibration won't and doesn't do anything useful... its more then likely an app or something running constantly. What's your screen on times? Post a screenshot of your battery usage.

I'm on 2.3.4 with practically all the bloat and more removed, holy hell battery is terrible for me... if testing to find rouge apps doesn't work I'm gonna factory reset and just not install any thing. Today I didn't hardly use my phone (no work) sat around on the computer, paid some bills watched some movies and TV, sent two text messages and read 3 emails battery was at 65% after 3 ½ hours... 3 of which was idle time and screen off. Never had it so bad before.

Anytime. That's usually the first thing I do when I install a rom based on lg stock. That app runs constantly eating data and ram. You will usually gain almost 1mb of open ram by just deleting it.

Ya I knew there was something I was missing, considering my average use on most 2.3.3 roms would be at least 16-20 hours, I was barely getting 10-11 hours after the update. So thanks again!

On what type of usage? I can hardly get more than 8 hrs on medium usage .
What the hell is qem_warlock .it's been on my kernel warlock since I unplugged.

I pretty much don't play games and don't stream music or anything like large data usage. I call text browse and read articles and such, XDA and Facebook is about it for other usage though, light in most eyes, and I under-clock the phone to 700's usually.

Ya I agree, the phone at 600ish on stock kernel runs just fine for texting and calls and checking Facebook... usually what I run when I'm out at bars with my friends cause it usually ends up being a weekend without my charger, I've over clocked the phone maybe twice, no point in my eyes lol.

Its not bad, but it could be better. It looks like u lose signal a few times throughout the day. The phone searchin for signal will def drain ur battery. That was really the only thing i noticed. Looks like ur awake time and screen on time r pretty dead on (better than mine) so ur peob not havin wakelock problems. Do u use the facebook app? It is a huge battery hog.

I like the Friendcaster app for Facebook. It does everything the official app does and it's a lot more resource-lean. It's also easier to use, IMO.

I use the mobile sites for fb and twitter n it def saves on batt life. I also turn off google location (only turn it on wen i need navigation). And also lower the brightness of ur display to abt 20% or so

Also runs a ton faster.

Properly configured, Friendcaster uses C2DM for notifications which is already running anyway, so there's nothing extra polling in the background.

I've got notifications disabled with Friendcaster and it uses 1mb of RAM when it runs in the background. The upside is that I have the option of "sharing" with my other apps.
I'm one of those annoying people who always posts pics of their kids and articles that no one else likes to read, so having this option is important to me.

Im on scv6....the phone and contacts mod didnt seem to work but i dug deeper and found this radio mod and its a noticeable difference indeed!
Sent from my MB865 using XDA App

Checking it out now...I haven't noticed much of a difference. Hardly any of the other settings in the first menu of Spare Parts on SCv6 work, the regular Spare parts stuff works as normal. I've been playing around with it since installing SCv6, I got excited with all of the options in there but the excitement died when I could get almost nothing to work.

This sounds cool, but surely there is a catch if it randomly improves speeds so dramatically, right? Does it shorten the lifespan of your phone or something (lol)? And what exactly does it modify to achieve this speed boost?

My downloads are faster, net based apps like xda, engadget and sac bee load up faster, even gmail loads and syncs faster. This is how it should be!

No idea. But if you can, make sure to enable this radio mod!

oops

I would like to know where I can get this. There's a lot of talk of how great it is, but no talk of where to get it. I know there is a spare parts app on the store.
Or is this something that is a mod on the ROM you're using?

Took the .apk and incorporated into another. Hit 10520kbps without Hotweiss' Radio mod, and after enabling the mod I hit 106960kbps on data speed test. So far, so good... I'll keep playing with it, but seems to be a winner as far as I can tell!

I've noticed some minor improvement, but I seem to have a less reliable connection.

Well, if you actually used it, it's quite normal that it has a high amount of energy consumption. The Camera Hardware is engery hungry.
If not, and a reboot doesn't fix it, I'm alredy running out of ideas. Maybe some additional informations (e.g. Better Battery Stats) can help to identify the problem

Have you searched? A Google search brings up apps like reality piano, airdroid and a yahoo messenger being culprits. Any of those?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app

its the camera daemon. if you started the cam, and exited it, but didnt close/kill it, it temains running under some circumstances. either "kill" the camera or just reboot to fix it.
