HTC Zoe on Nexus? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know this is a long shot but here it goes...
I used to have the HTC One, and I LOVED that phone. I switched to the Moto X, and loved that. Now I have the Nexus and love that. Now I want the HTC M8 because I think I will love that. Anyway, you get my point...
But one thing about the HTC One that i liked a lot, was the Zoe feature. Not so much making the slideshow for you already, but the fact that it took the 3 second picture/video for you so that you could make a clip with it. I know Google's Auto Awesome does this already, but just a basic slideshow. Is there any way to port that feature for the camera? Or if not, an app similar to that?
Thank you

Yeah I looked into it and figured if we couldn't even get the sense launcher, there was no hope,
but is there a camera app that would do something like this? I could edit it myself, or use Google Photos to edit it (although navigating that app is a PITA) but just a camera app that, you, or someone else that knows that could work?

Yes and No...
I don't mind Sense at all, I had a few issues with 5.0 with the small things like a black BG on the dock, etc. But I really want to take small, quick movies when i press the shutter button, so that I can make quick, small edited movies that don't look like the boring old slideshows they have now. I want it to be an "animated slideshow"

[REQUEST] Take Desire Camera to Cyanogen?

As it says really.
I tried the Desire ROM for a brief period today and I've got to say the Camera/Video app is gorgeous.
Love the wide screen and face recognition.
I'm presuming this ISN'T a HTC app so it can be ported across?
Anyone willing to try?
This cam is 3 Mega pix nexus is 5.

wow lol. you think megapixel has anything to do with anything lol! 80% of the time you noobits make me laugh. the camera.apk is supported with multiple framework images and htc's custom files. Theoretically it is possible to build their code and images onto our framework and merge some necessary files but it will take tons of time and knowledge. So I'm basically saying it wont happen anytime soon and when it does you should donate to the genius who did it!

Yo Hero what is your problem calling me a noob. I don't know Java, one of you biggest fan but keep talking down to your fans and you will end up fan less.
Do you know what?
I wouldn't care anyway. the camera is never going to be brilliant and I bet it would be difficult to tell the difference.
Shame it would be so complicated though.
re: the Camera - no flash or 5MP support yet. Altho, having snooped around, it does support Cameras up to 8 Megapixel! Still investigating...

This is per Paul in the Desire thread. SOOOO, the camera is MUCH better all around, not just with it's face recognition, etc...
Its file from Desire ROM. Try to install.
But I like 2.1 stock cam better.

My bad bro I truly am sorry. I just have alot of pent up rage from modaco. That guy ticks me off. Just try not to answer questions with false info yanno what i mean. but on-topic i have just tried porting framework.jar,easopen,pimlib,and htc.resources with proper permissions and correct .apks and it does not seem to get past the 1st boot screen. will post back later with newer results. btw I really just want my HTCMusic.apk!!!!
You can definitely see the difference. The biggest one is usability. Then for lower light shots, you can use a manual ISO settings instead of the automatic one, I tried it with ISO200 and there was almost 0 noise compared to the automatic ISO. Then you have click to focus and automatic face detection + more.
HTC Camera on Cyanogen will be awesome.

[REQ] HTC Album port for Nexus One

I found that the Gallery3D loads photo extremely slow. Will anyone make a port of the HTCAlbum.apk for the nexus?
+1 to that.
I agree would the amazing to have
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
The same, cooliris loads waaaay to slow.
I'd be cool with that.
HTC apps can't be ported they require the sense UI to be running.
I think you will find that you can't port htc widgets, htc album is not dependent on sense, its just an app. I think it can be ported, i think its possible.

well all i can tell you is that people have been trying to port the HTC apps since the very first hero system dump, and the only one EVER ported was the camera.

Not true. stericson managed to port HTC Music back in the cupcake/donut days.
The point is, the photo album app is not reliant on sense. Widgets like friend steam are sense reliant. I think its technically possible.

Designz,
The guy is an obvious pleb, Flaming at the first oportunity, Its people like him we dont need on these forums, spoiling the productive atmosphere.....
I had a Desire previous to a Nexus One and Evil cooked up a barebone ROM with Sense/Rosie totally removed, and the gallery works completly independent of sense.
I will have a chat with evil, as he is the guy who has the quality to do this. Its also good that we have a 2.2 sense rom to play with, so the compatibility is there The app will most probably just have to be de-odexed....
I will look into it

What rom are you running? If your running a Sense rom you will still have the required libs for the gallery to run. No matter if you removed the SenseUI launcher.
EDIT: Didn't see your last post. So you are still running a Sense rom. All you have done is remove the Rosie, all the libs are still on your phone. But please prove me wrong...
Libs can be ported no?
I remember Evil also transferring the 3D gallery to the Desire... I hope it can be done. Its beyond my ability, but to a coder it could be childs play

But i had a desire and was running 2.1 sense on it

Intersted in this as the cooliris gallery is annoying me.
Is the quality of pics better than the froyo gallery ?
Bumping this to see if there was any progress or answer ?
Bumping this, would be awesome to have HTC Album.

I keep hearing about sense 3.0 having panorama

i cannot find the settings any where
That's because it doesn't exist in the Sensation.
there is a app somewhere around here that works pretty good
im still trying to figure out why HTC took away some nice features that the older sense versions had..

I even mailed Pano guys from the iPhone as that works pretty well - they said they would make an android version but not seen anything yet.
galaxy S 1 had a feature for panorama which was half decent - not sure why this isn't in yet... photostitch and other apps I tried didn't work so great imo... not sure if they have improved in the last 6months or so...

[Q] anyone know if there is a way to put sense 3 or 3.5 on the samsung roms?

You did try the phone before you bought it, right?
1. Print this out.
2. Acquire scotch tape
3. Tape to phone
4. ?????
5. Profit!

well do you just want the launcher and widgets or the whole set of menus dialer and more?
you can use 3rd party apps like go contacts and launcher pro and go weather or beautiful widgets or fancy widget and replace the lock screen with a market ap but to port the ui takes work both ui's have some kernel integration and the phones use completely different hardware so it takes a lot of work from experienced developers and none here have any interest in that. best i can tell you is to buy a sensation or it's canadia equivelant if you are not satisfied with market app.
though i do like mikeys suggestion.
I prefer Mikey's suggestion, agree with Dani's and suggest you look at how the proposed Sense port went for the original sgs and then come back......
I used Sense with Cookie's improvments. The GO Launcher and ALL of its addons are actually far superior - then add 2 quicklauncher - and this phone DESTROYS sense. Just a bit more work to get all assembled - but its all there and WAY MORE.

Getting TRUE sense UI on samsung based rom is (impossible??). Porting them is a lot harder then anyone might think.
sense is very heavy. i remember even 2 years ago on windows mobile phones it consisted of thousands of files. and it seems to only have gotten more bloated. its definitely not impossible, but its so intertwined with the framework, it would take alot of work. htc is not going to make it easy.

yeah I didn't know.. I know they port all the time from htc to htc so didnt know how it was from htc to another model or another model to htc.. the sense 3.5 for my inspire was great but the phone button broke, so i got the samsung infuse until the next htc came out.. I do however like some of the feedback i got and with a few free apps from the market ive got it dialed in with the htc looks without the battery cpu and mem hog.. may just get the galaxy 2 and mod it the same way and see if i can hold off on the htc.. but i hear the htc holiday aka raider is going to be amazing

Coolest Features of the GS3?

So I am still trying to figure out how to turn on that one feature where you can reject calls by saying "Reject!" Maybe its not supported on my ROM (I'm on the newest Synergies builds).
Therefore, I was wondering if some of you could list some of your most favorite features of the GS3....whatever that may be in order to make your day-to-day operations easier.
Thanks!

My favorite feature? The unlocked bootloader
I've been running CM10 for a week or so now and I have to say that I really miss the tw camera on the stock GS3. I don't know if you consider the camera software a feature or not but that app is amazing.

Yeah I think there are ways you can take it out of the TW ROM and place it into CM10...I'm just waiting for CM10 to stabalize and off I go! I've had it for a few days and seems good! the HDR Camera+ and Camera360 are great too!
I haven't seen anything like that. The TW camera app is what has kept me from going to CM10. I also like the TW calendar more than AOSP.

Believe me, I've tried to get it in there. I've ported over various tw framework files along with it but just can't get it to work.
Let me qualify this by saying that I'm no dev and don't *really* know what I'm doing
MB when JB is released officially for this phone it can be ported.

killer feature
Unofficial AOKP Jellybean is working breat for me. Only ROM I've used so far and I have had zero issues mentioned in its thread.
I hated TW and VZW bloat was too much
Personally, the one thing I would love if it worked right is the smart stay. I love the idea behind it, but in practicallity, unless I have the phone oriented just right it won't work. I've check the camera without moving, and I've had more than 3/4 of my face in easy view and still the screen would shut off.

The smart stay doesn't actually recognize your face. It throws that little eyeball notification in the status bar so it will distract you and your eyes move to "see what it is" the camera picks up your eye movement(or doesn't) and either keeps the screen on or not.

i think the tw cam is based on code from the touchwiz framework. i doubt you can use it on cm10. but the aosp camera in the i9300 forum is really nice if you want cm10. i also love the phone and contacts apps. and the motion controls are really cool.

Seriously? Well that actually sounds really stupid now, because I've actually been trying to train myself to ignore it. I hate that thing and find it really distracting. Also, how then is it supposed to work in an app which displays in full screen mode?
