Will the Galaxy Camera ever get an update to 4.2 (official or not)? I couldn't find anything so there's probably no information about that I guess.
Since I share one digital camera with several people it would be cool if everyone could have his own account on the device.

i bought that camera and its amazing.not for professionals but its for us who loves Android ofc:victory:
is possible to port dialer on that cam?im not asking like something it must be done,im just wondering if that is possible
Hello XDA-Devs,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
You guys have been a great resource in getting my Nexus 4 rooted, and flashed with CWM + CM11 + Franco Kernel (Which has made a huge difference in usability, and battery life).
However, my boss has some questions for me since he now knows I am a "phone head".
He used to have a note 3, and loved the Samsung Mail App. He said it was the best mail app you could get, and it had a lot of similar functionality to outlook. He is wondering if it's possible to install the Stock SAMSUNG mail app to his Huawei Ascend Note 2. He also asked if he could flash the Samsung 4.4.4 release to his Huawei without getting all the AT&T bloatware attached. I've done an extensive amount of googling between yesterday and this morning and could not find a clear answer.
From what I understand, you cannot flash the stock Samsung S4 / Note 3 / S3 ROMs because the phones do not have the same hardware, but can I get the APKs from the Samsung stock apps?
Would be a huge help if anyone has an answer for me. Or if anyone has the APKs for the Samsung email app, please send a link!
Each Samsung Device firmware is based around what is called Touchwiz Framework. This is propriatory to Samsung device and hence most of the Samsung apps will not function without it. Some of the Samsung Apps do function without the Touchwiz framework but there are additional steps necessary.
Please post in Galaxy Note 3 General so that the right experts for that device may be of help.
Today was a day of bad news. I just read this article and apparently the Lollipop update does not bring the new camera API to the Xperia Z1/2/3 series. I could cry!
Now I was wondering, since Custom ROMs can alter so much for a device, whether they can enable the camera API even though Sony doesn't. It would be awesome if there's a developer who could manage to do this - if at all possible of course. I was planning on making a video of these potential new camera controls, but I was surprised to see that Sony just didn't allow the API to be used (I don't know the technical details so correct me if I'm wrong about the actual phrasing there).
Do you have any thoughts on this? Are you a developer, and do you have any experience with this or similar APIs? I for one have no idea if it can be made to work with the Xperia Z1/2/3's camera at all. I'd love to know! :highfive:

I'm not entirely impressed with the camera either, and can't believe we have waited this long for Sony to release the lollipop update, which not only doesn't improve the camera, but its also just 5.0.. i thought the whole delay in the lollipop update was due to the initial quirks in the 5.0 build meaning they would roll out 5.1?
At this point in the game with the competition you cannot be releasing flagships marketed as the worlds best camera which is actually very mediocre. I'm truly disappointed in Sony and will likely not be holding on to my Z3 for much longer.
As it stands, have you tried the 20mp SuperiorAuto xposed module? I have seen quite a significant improvement, if you can live with the occasional crashes...
Hey guys
in the past i had a galaxy s6 but i sold it and now i have an iphone 6, ive seen that CM13 is available in Galaxy S6, but i sold my s6 cuz i had the nxt issues:

I was wondering about z5....but so many people are compaling about that device. And I have had a z5 in my hand, and it took awfull photos (low light). I was breaking my s6's back panel, BUT I re purchased the s6 yesterday again. I have tried the 6.0 with it, and looks promising ( I love the manual camera shutter sped control).
come back. this is a cheap device already, ($300-350), and there is non better on the market what have this huge amount of features like s6 (with 6.0 )
Why would you go back to a device where your main issue is the OS? That's just wierd.
Get a Nexus if you want AOSP.
The CM13 you are referring to in your OP is a TEST build and should NOT be used as a daily driver. Bugs, things are broken / not working.
Sounds like you might wanna research some other phones / brands before jumping back to a device your not comfortable with IMO.

im asking what about new firmwares, have them fix major galaxy s6 issues like ram management?
Samsung will release the gs6' sourcecode after the marshmallow release. This will make the custom rom community much more effective. Looking forward
Edit @renolzSry: I meant kernel sourcecode

Hi all.
I recently got a Samsung Galaxy s6 Edge. Loving the phone, but was surprised not to see raw support and shutter speed ability in the stock camera app, as last may I was convinced I had read that it was going to have an 'exciting' camera update. After some research, I discovered this had been updated and implemented in Android 5.1.1.
So does this mean even with the impending 6.0 update, that the only way to use raw or tinker with the shutter speed will be via a third party app? If so that seems a bit lame. Hoping someone out there can shed some light on this.
I do love my lg g4 but compared to the s6 edge it looks ancient, the camera capabilities are simply amazing though. That's why I don't get why Samsung hasn't made it accessible from their own app?
FYI I have manual camera and can't use raw mode, it's non exist for my phone. I can change the shutter speed though
