Virtuous Saga v.1.0.0 camera.apk

Hi,
In the Virtuous Saga thread under development it is said that if you reinstall camera apk from system\apps you get the panorama mode back. Curious as I am I tried that, but there seems not to be any camera.apk in this zip!
Can someone explain? Is another ZIP meant te be source of this camera app?
Thanks!

PS to mods:
I am active on XDA for about two or three years now. I never had to ask questions, because I actually search and read... Therefore I was unpleasantly surprised when I noticed that I can't post in the development thread. I believe that I am know asking help on a specific rom in a thread that is not intended for this...

Search for HTCCamera.apk in /system/app/.
You have to make 10 posts or so... to be able to post in the development section.

Thanks, I found it!
But after installing it there is no extra panorame mode.
That doesn't surprise me, but it's the same app that was already installed...
Does someone know how to get this panorama option in the scenes menu?

Thanks zyotty, for replying.
It is still not clear to me though... Do you, after having done as you describe, have amaze running, or the standard htccamera.apk? And did you install amaze from Play Store, or do you have an apk for that?
Thanks again!

Yes, you can use ES File Explorer (don't forget to activate "root explorer" function, and mount file system in the app) if you don't have RootExplorer installed.

Haha! I have been using ES File Explorer every now and then for years, but I did not know the Root Explorer feature! ;-) Thanks for pointing that out.
The permissions seemed to be okay as they were, nevertheless I reinstalled again, but no panorama mode... I'll leave it there, because one of these days that will probably come in one of the many new ROMs anyway...

Thank you very much, exactly what I needed

[ROM] [4.2.1] Stock rooted - Deodexed/Zipaligned + More

EDIT: Sorry guys, i won't be updating this with the new versions of android as my n7 broke. Sorry!
Hello people,
I made a zip file you can use to install stock android 4.2.1 on your nexus 7 using CWM
All downloads: HERE (Thanks to goo.im)
How to install:
Wipe data (may not be needed if you upgrade from stock)
Format /system
Install Zip
Reboot
Those zips contain the /system directory from a fresh 4.2.1 installation and the boot.img from the 4.2 factory image.
I removed recovery-from-boot.p
The rooted zip also includes SuperSU.
I will not include busybox, because scrosler already made it. Scrosler's thread
If you prefer Superuser instead of SuperSU, you can just install the official zip which you can find here. It will override SuperSU.
Addons/Extras/I don't care what it is called (can be installed in any ROM):
All extras are now hosted HERE (Thanks to goo.im for awesome hosting)
Extras info:
install_AOSP_browser_4_2_1-grouper.zip: This installs the AOSP browser in any ROM
deodex_zipalign_4_2_1-grouper.zip: This deodexes/zipaligns your ROM
odex_unzipalign_4_2_1-grouper.zip: This odexes/unzipaligns your ROM
clicking thanks would be nice... if you want...
Thanks to all that did!

Update: apparently if your rooted and have twrp installed it pick's it up and installs it no wipe/data needed also keeps root access

I think so. I actually made this for people with custom roms, so they don't have to flash the factory image.

Seems fine to me. People just need to make sure to uncheck the "use accelerator" option and download it directly. It should be a .zip not an .exe. If you see that you've downloaded an .exe, you did it wrong.
On a side note... this download is wicked slow.

Tried SE, still not able to move anything into system/app. It was suggested In the viper thread to try reflashing elemental first, then dirty flash viper. If that doesn't work only thing to do would be to completely wipe. I did come from ICS without wiping everything in twrp (ran the wipe in aroma though). Could that have anything to do with it? I know that's farfetched but I'm not sure what else it could be.

i know. re read the OP
edit: just an update. i dirty flashed both viper and elemental and im still unable to move the files. only thing left is to do a complete wipe again.

Make a zip to flash in twrp. Or use a zip from themes that flashes system apps... Open with 7zip and replace those files with yours.. then close zip. Flash in twrp.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

i finally had enough time to do a complete wipe. this time i am now able to move files into system/app with the viper file explorer. es file explorer is still not allowing me to move them correctly. i havent seen any reports on this anywhere (xda, other forums, etc) so im not sure whats going on with the app. its definitely updated for JB so im a bit confused. thanks for the replies everybody, appreciate your time. :good:

[APP][4.4+] OmniSwitch: Recent apps switcher for all KitKat ROMs

OmniSwitch is a recent apps switcher created for OmniROM by maxwen, you can read more about it here. Even though the app was developed for OmniROM, it works on all KitKat ROMs. Users of non-KitKat ROMs can take a look at OmniSnitch.
The attached .zip file is to be used with custom recovery and flashes OmniSwitch.apk (extracted from OmniROM) to /system/priv-app, the app needs to be in this location for the kill apps function to work. You can also copy the attached apk to system/priv-app, you will also need to set the permissions to rw-r--r--, do not install it. If you're interested in the source code, you can find it here.
This thread was created with maxwen's permission.
Edit: I have changed both files, from what I saw with the tests I did, both methods work now. Thanks to ultimahwhat for the new apk and to OrglCe for his zip creator.
Let me know if there are any problems.
Edit: If you have any permission problems, it should be fixed after using lucky patcher to remove signature verification on your phone, as always, this is at own risk.

I have tried both ways maybe it's the cm11 rom for the U which is the issue I'm not sure though

Tried flashing it on stock 4.4.2 setup (rooted) on Nexus 5. Keep getting failed to gain permissions errors. Checked root explorer and correct permissions were shown however.

ive flashed the zip, now how do i enable and use it??

I'm also getting the start failed error, I'm trying to figure out how to fix it.
I think I messed up with the signatures/certificates, I'm busy looking for a solution.

In the meantime, found a potential workaround, hope it is a kosher suggestion... Omni switch was included with and working on pac rom, so I just extracted the apk from one of the nightlies and copied it into the appropriate directory, changed permissions. Did not get permissions error after reboot and am able to use it with drag handle. Now if I could just replace the default recents launcher...

Hmm just to clarify, your on the OnePlus 2 running OxygenOS 2.0.2? it should be just as showing in the screen shot. Just under gestures in device section.
Also could you do me a favour? could you extract the settings.apk from the zip and push it manually to prv-app/settings/settings.apk? Change permissions and test.
OK just ran a test. Looks like the mount path I am using to mount system is not working correctly. Just extract the apk manually and push it to the folder it will work.
I will make a new update later this evening.

Sorry about that guys. I was using my updater script from my Nexus 6. It looked as if it was installing ok, but wasn't mounting system correctly. Re-wrote updater script from scratch, let me know if there are any problems
