Just figured, the cwm script has the wrong mount point.

Working perfectly now. Its a nifty feature to have.
Thanks

What is this?

The optical reader integrates the samsung keyboard with input ocr capabilities using the camera to scan text. The standalone app is useful to translate text on the fly by pointing at the camera.

Any chance to install it manually??(no cwm yet).

thanks

Strange Samsung excluded Optical Reader from the Note 3, it is there in the S4. I installed an alternative called 'Photo Reader' from the Play Store, but the app crashes on opening. I modified my phone a little bit (Vega Root, Foldershare (incl. fix mount points)).
Is there anyone who tried this 'Photo Reader' app on the Note 3 who can confirm it working on the Note 3?

You can install manually (I did that way) simply by copy the zip structure in the corresponding folder structure. There are no overlapping libraries, so no risk that anything go mess. The only thing are the permissions to be set as discussed in the OP

I've tried flashing this, verifying permissions and then replacing apk and lib files with ones from the latest S4 4.3 ROM.
The final step at least got the app to launch but it still won't OCR. I also tried installing the optical reader database from Samsung's App Store.
I was wondering if anyone has tried Abbyy Mobile TextGrabber? Is it pretty much the same thing? If so, I might just buy it!

check the permissions of the folder system/photoreader and the subfolders (should be drwxr-xr-x 755). This activated the on the fly OCR functionality.
I'm on sm-n9005 xxubmj3 rooted odex.
I've reinstalled it manually because seems the cwm script is faulty and setup the permission manually and it works flawlessly.

Working great on GT-N7000. No FC. I'm on RocketMIUI v3.
I just installed the apk and it works but I guess it depends on weather the libs are present in the ROM. Rocket ROM had it preinstalled.

Try this (I haven't tried yet):
Extract library from apk
Put them (the four *.so files) in system/lib with correct permissions
Delete library folder from apk
Put the apk In system/app with correct permissions
Reboot

Worth a try!
If anyone does try this method, don't forget to re-sign the apk after editing.

Add Multiwindow Support for Apps thru CSC file

UPDATE: A fellow xda member created an app that will help you add multiwindow support for your app through feature.xml. You can visit his thread here.
This maybe a simple way to add multiwindow support to apps without having to modify apks and at the same time be able to update your apps without losing multiwindow support just by editing a simple text file. This may or may not work for you.
I don't have a note10.1 but as I was trying to port some features from the note10.1 to the note1, I came across a smali code fragment that checks for multiwindow supported apps in CSC file as well as excluded apps so I tried to investigate further and found out that you can actually add multiwindow support for almost any app by just adding it's package name in feature.xml or other.xml in /system/csc folder. So if you look into your feature.xml file you will see the code below.
Code:
<CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>-com.google.android.apps.maps,-com.google.android.maps,-com.google.android.gm,-com.google.android.talk,-com.google.android.youtube,-com.android.chrome,-com.facebook.katana,-com.twitter.android,-com.kakao.talk,-com.android.email,-com.android.mms,-com.sec.android.mms.kor,-com.sec.android.app.snotebook,-com.infraware.polarisviewer4,-com.infraware.polarisoffice4</CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>
What to do?
Just delete all package names inside like below:
Code:
<CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp></CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>
Then add the package name of every app you want to have multiwindow support like this...
Code:
<CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>com.android.vending</CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>
and add another like below (separated by a comma) :
Code:
<CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>com.android.vending,com.android.settings</CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>
If you notice, there are no "-" prefixes to package names and there are no white spaces (this is very important).
How to find the package name?
You can look into the /data/data folder using root explorer/solid explorer/root browser and find the folder that corresponds to the app you want to add. The folder name is the package name.
NOTE: If you have the feature.xml file but doesn't have the <CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp></CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp> code above, then just copy the code above and insert it into your feature.xml file.
NOTE:If you don't have the feature.xml file but have the other.xml file, just copy the code above into your other.xml and edit it and insert the apps you want. Remember to reboot after editing for the change to take effect.
This feature works for my stock rooted deodex note n7000 (not modded for unlimited multiwindow apps).
* The smali code where I got this idea from is note1 JB 4.1.2 so for note10.1 it may also be only available for JB 4.1.2.
If it works for you show some appreciation. Post feedback and share your experience for the benefit of others.
I have a note 10.1 and I tried this. I got into the feature.XML file and it doesn't look anything like that. I would love this to work... but I am still on ICS and wonder if that may be the problem.
Any help? Or was anybody else able to do this and make it work?
Ok I got the file by default all google apps are mutiwindow enabled but the same still do not have this feature
I am 4.1.2 but unfortunately haven't got a multiview line in the xml.

You must mod feature.xml in System/CSC folder. At the end of this file there are strings for multiwindow. In these strings I have only added "com.dropbox.android". In this way Dropbox didn't become multiwindow but yes all apps in the original list (Gmail, youtube, Facebook etc etc)

Replace system odexed apps with deodexed - MTK6589 Android 4.2.1 Device

Hi all, I have a Chinese clone of Galaxy S4 called No.1 S6 with MTK6589 Cpu and Android 4.2.1, well, I tried to replace some system app like contacts, phone dialer and messages with the same apps taken from the Slim bean 4.2.2 Rom for the Google Nexus 4 that has the same screen resolution. I odexed the slim bean apks with dexopt-wrapper as explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462648, I signed them with auto-sign software, so I put them into system/app folder with right permissions, deleting old apks first, rebooted the phone, wiped cache in recovery and when the phone booted the apk I replaced was gone, so I wanna ask u if it's really possible to make this kind of replacement or I made a huge mistake, of course this is a noob that talks...

It's maybe an stupid question but, did you tried to install it normally? With the apkinstaller or filemanager.
Well, If it's to replace other apps. Uninstall it first and then try to install your port. Without any wipe or so.
Unfortunately these apks can't be installed as normal apks, the installation fails if u try, and I can't uninstall them neither because system apps have to be replaced manually in system/app folder. So the question was if the problem is with the odex file or the signature or if there is an absolute incompatibility between OS and the ported apks that I want to replace. I'm afraid that's not possibile at all because system apps have deep connections with the OS...

Last night some apps were updated automatically, and since then my dialer, sms and contacts apps crash whenever i try to use them. If I boot the phone in 'safe mode', those apps work OK, but I can't use the other apps I have (except for the play store).
Any idea how to fix that without resetting?
How can I check which apps were updated?
