I absolutely hate the note 2 gallery. Its laggy and "chunky". I use quick pic mostly , I do have 4.2 gallery installed but mostly for photosphere.
I like the stock gallery but its been replaced in the German ROM.
Anyone know of any conflicts ?
hello there
I've hated the integration of Google Gallery + Camera ever since JB was released!!!
the main reason is that the Gallery app has a "swipe to delete functionality" within the filmstrip view: this feature might be loved by many - I understand that - but it's extremely hated by me !
now here goes the dilemma... I hate the stock Google Gallery and want to replace it with QuickPic or whatever BUT I am soo in to the stock Camera !!!!
back in the ICS days, the camera.apk was separated (sadly I tried pushing the ICS camera.apk to JB but I kept getting FC)
so what I want is the one of the following:
- Find a way to MOD the GoogleGallery.apk in order to completely disable that ugly swipe to delete freak
OR
- Find a way to separate the Camera from the Gallery
OR
- Find a way to make the ICS work on JB 4.2.2 without FC (plz don't suggest to install that ICS Camera app from the market coz it doesn't work as it should be and the photos resolution is too low and it's full of ads / notification push ads...
Thanks in advance for anyone who is able to solve this dilemma for me
anyone????
not even a suggestion???

The on-going debate about the S3's camera when using Touchwiz vs. an AOSP ROM made me wonder about the camera apps itself. Which camera app do you primarily use? Coming from the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, I actually miss the AOSP camera app (where you have the touch-wheel that lets you adjust settings on the fly). The stock TW camera app isn't quite as intuitive (e.g. to change white balance, I have to press the Options button and scroll down through a litany of settings just to change it).
I've been tempted to try OTHER camera apps, like Camera MX. Does anyone have a preference?
Snap camera. Easy. Love it. There is a thread here somewhere where the developer is active in it.

I had been using this camera https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moblynx.camerajbplus&hl=en until getting onto 4.3.1, whenever I use a 3rd party camera, it's fails and then no app can connect to the camera, I have clear the cache and dalvik cache to get the stock camera to work. But if the the jb+ camera works for you I'd recommend it. I use this camera when I'm not in a rush https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.pro&hl=en (there's a lite version too I think) It just gives you complete control of your camera. It's great for arty fartsy stuff but if you need to take a quick photo it might not be the best the app.
Stock Camera
I use the stock camera, but I just downloaded VSCO Cam, I'll see if its any good.

I was upgrading some of the system apps on my phone with KitKat versions, since the LG stock versions weren't that great. I downloaded the KitKat camera app, and from what I read, was advised to remove the stock camera app to prevent any problems. I backed up the stock LG camera app on my SD card, and installed the KitKat camera app. I got the panorama mode to work, as well as the filters in the KitKat gallery app. I thought everything was working, so I deleted my backed up camera app, only to figure out later on that the Kitkat camera app would freeze anytime I tried to take a video. Granted, the camera on my phone sucks horribly, but I could not find a way to get it to work with the Kitkat camera app or even the early 4.2 Camera/Gallery app. So what I'm asking is, can anyone upload the LG camera apk and odex file that comes with the LG Optimus Dynamic II? Or would it be possible to try and get my video camera to work with the Kitkat or 4.2 camera app? I've uploaded a cat log file, but I'd rather not do much work since the camera is not that great at all, and I just want to be able to take videos on my phone.
I'm still on stock ROM, rooted. The default camera app is missing some features I used regularly on my old phone.
Are there any recommended alternatives? I have Open Camera installed and it seems to work fine and has more features. Any better apps?
Also, can anyone tell me how to change the default camera app for things like the lock screen camera launcher? I can't find a default setting for it.
