Flashing Photosphere app on the S4 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General

I found this thread: http://droidviews.com/2013/how-to-install-android-4-2-photosphere-camera-on-samsung-galaxy-s4/ that says a person flashed the Nexus 4 photosphere apk with TWRP and it worked on his GT-I9500. Has anyone tried this before?

Camera doesn't work but the gallery does, I can view old photospheres from my nexus 4

Am using a stock one I tried fixing by downloading the modded Skype but still no luck I really want it to be fix I use Skype all the time
Have you check the person at the other side that calling thru skype...maybe their front camera that cannot support the gnote big screen...the best way to test is gnote with gnote..
Or else try it from pc skype to your phone

Flipboard not compatible??

I just bought my note tonight and am installing apps and noticed Clipboard is not compatible for my device. Short of a custom Rom, is there a workaround?

Here's a link to one on this site, not sure if its the same one I used (also from xda) but I have Flipboard running on my Gt-n8010. It was running a little oddly until it updated now runs good. Make sure you have an installer, pop on sd or extsd and you a good to go.

Ok I have been informed that you need to be rooted and flash in recovery otherwise photosohere will force close. I dont know how it will work on the note that way.

Link to updated apk with the correct libs for the s4, my note isn't rooted anymore so I can't flash this to test it.

Thing that gets me is that Goog just releases a slightly newer version of Android and doesn't tell anyone. -_-
I installed it without root and works fine for me, no flashing just installed the apk.

Second link in my third post is the flashable zip. It fixes the crashing while using photo sphere on the s4. I don't know if it will work right on our tablet. You can try if you want, just make a backup. If you already tried that then it needs some dev work..

Awsome works perfectly on mine, which is unrooted stock rom just installed apk like any other app. Cheers
Bit of a learning curve trying to line them up though.
Thanks, it`s beautiful!
The 2nd Camera doesnt work.
It works great on my S4 mini but when I try to take pictures with the 2nd camera, the app says that the connection can't be done. What can I do?
Pd: sorry for bringing this old post back to life.

Jelly Bean 4.2 camera & Gallery apk

Here's the standard camera app from jb , comes with photosphere which works with our phone.
Must be flashed in recovery and you will still have your moto camera app.
The advantage to using this is there's a actually shutter button on the screen which allows you take pic much quicker

Also allows you to take photos while recording video

You have to have a rooted device? The apk was also made available on Droid Life but I'm pretty sure they said that it replaces your camera and gallery app

I don't think it can replace your original camera app... at leat not just like that, because it's a system app. I'm pretty sure you can have one copyrunning from system and another one along with the rest.
No I believe it does nor do most flashable zips

Didn't notice that was a flashable zip. Just installing the apk (link in the other thread) works just fine. Just tried it myself. You do get 2 gallery icons, though, since you have it installed twice (one in each partition).
Yah one is the moto gallery the other S4 gallery

Yup. Still cool, although I guess I'll see if I can change the apk's name or icon... you know, just so I can tell one from the other.

Well, for anything other than Photosphere, I'm still more leaned to use Moto's camera app, you know? I like the slow motion vid, the layout... and I'm not even sure if I'm getting 10.5mpx with the stock Android camera app... which doesn't matter for Photospheres, but for everything else, I'd rather keep .
Moto camera definately comes with more options, for those who want the money shot in slo mo , moto camera it is

You need root I believe, there's libs that are required for photosphere. Never had an android device that wasn't rooted within a day if purchasing it

I know there were libs for the 4.2 camera which was a pain, but wasn't the 4.3 GPE one just install and go? At least with some devices...

I have no idea, but almost positive there's probably and apk for 4.3 camera that installs in an unrooted device. Let me check my other 2 phones that are running jb 4.3
Its a system app so it won't install
Found this and it seems to install as a standard apk

Lost HDR+ camera mode.

Hello all,
So far loving the N5.
I need some help. I seem to have lost my HDR+ setting in the Camera. I did have it and now it is missing.
So far I have rooted my device and changed the compiler to ANT. Would any of those remove it? Maybe I'm being stupid and changed a setting in the camera, but I have tried everything. I know when using flash it was greyed out but now its completely gone.
Any one else lost it?
Be easy on me its my first Nexus and been searching for the last hour on XDA
I'm running ART and still have access to HDR+ so i don't think it's that.
Thanks for the reply DirkGently Are you rooted? I'm going to reset my phone in a moment to see if that fixes it.

I have HDR+ using the new runtime ART and rooted so I can only think that it could be either down a software issue or hardware issue if a reset doesn't fix it then I would return your phone to where you bought it and get another

try clearing the cache maybe?(cache may take a long time to clear)
if that doesn't work, i can pull my Googlecamera.apk and upload it
If you are rooted, try going here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516061
There is a modded camera zip and a stock camera zip. Maybe try flashing the latter to see if it helps.
So far i have cleared all data from gallery and camera. Now I just reset my phone and no luck if someone could upload the camera apk I could try that.
Is there a way to disable it?

Thanks to everyone that helped out.
I found the culprit. I changed my build prop to be a Galaxy Note 3 so I could run Polaris Office.
I have changed it all back and after a camera data wipe it all returned.
So if any of you want to change the device name for any reason, it will disable the HDR+ mode.
