I am on Stock ICS but my camera app is very slow and autofocus is also not working properly. Also, the gallery app is very slow and really takes time to zoom the pictures (Picture viewing app like QuickPic works really fast).
I just want to know that if I flash JB(4.2) Camera app, will it work better. I want to know that whether it will replace the default Camera app or will work as a separate application ? If it doesn't work properly how can I remove it?
Link for JB 4.2 Camera and Gallery app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965895
Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah it will work fine, youve to be rooted though.
It will work like a separate application and you can remove the app by removing the apk files and lib files /system/app and system/lib resp. We'll get into details if you don't feel like having it, first see if u like it.
Edit: BTW, the photosphere mode won't work for our phone since our phone doesn't have a gyroscope.
If auto focus and stock gallery are a problem, there's always the RazrM camera app in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32286710
It has multi shot and shutter tone toggle which the 4.2 is currently missing. Also you can link the gallery from the camera as quickpic and autofocus is as good as any moto camera app.

When you click on the gallery icon on top right of the camera screen.. it'll ask you to select a default application to open photos.

Theres no widget to directly toggle 2g/3g, the max you can do is get to the Mobile Network Settings page and select the desired network
i use 2G-3G On Off widget by curvefish from play store.. gets the work done..
are you able to select 2g or 3g network from Settings/Mobile Networks/Select Network ? if not then heres a mod to change that

Hi
i want to share to all razr i owners this amazing gallery app.
Just copy to sd card and install as any app with the explorer of your choice
You will have the amazing view with all your pictures, and pinch to zoom or unzoom to show more or less pic to the screen
Enjoy!
thnx mate, can u upload the purple walkman app with the visualizer???
Hi
i dont know of what application you are talking about exactly, anyway, if you are looking for the latest walkman application and visualizer, you can use the two files i post here
A few .zip with more options and system files, framework and more are available, but it seems because of our blur rom, it doesnt appear to be flashable on our Razr i
install these two as normal apps.
waiting feedback

Thanks :good:
It works well on my Razr i except the equalizer but not very important.
I installed the gallery too, and it seems to be better at any points
good to read
this gallery app is amazing! And with it i can manually add geo-tag to my pics that doesn't have. I was searching a simple way to do this and didn't find for Android, just for PC
Thank you so much!!

Can we add widgets using the xperia gallery?

Hey
I really dislike the sony album/picture viewer and was wondering how can I change so when I take a picture and click the preview it opens up in quickpic app not the sony album viewer? or any picture I view will open up using the quickpic app?
Thanks

Goto
settings/apps
and clear the defaults for the album app
Next time you open a picture you will be asked which app to do it with, choose the one you want and click always.
Quickpic app is and will always be my default picture gallery.

Thanks! I was going the wrong way about it. Have updated .. Is there anyway of changing in the camera app the default picture viewer it opens up with album still? or is that just locked and id need to use a different camera app?

I have exactly the same problem. I've tried to disable the Album app, but then I can't open my pictures from the Camera App. It all worked fine in KitKat - the camera app was lunching the quickpic. Ever since I've updated to Lollipop it looks like Sony is forcing users to use the Album app, not very nice :/

Forcing? No. It is default. Want another one? Root.
Hello everyone, I really hate to bump an old thread, but I'm having this same problem. I sincerely dislike the Album app, so I've been trying to "fool" the Camera app by renaming the QuickPic apk just like the Album apk, with no success until now.
I am, of course, rooted. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Same here. Any possibilities to change the default app, which is opened by the camera app?
Also unable to change from the default Sony Album app to Google Photos. I used to have it set as default but then something changed/updated and now I am unable to change it back. I'm even unable clear defaults for either of the apps as they are not highlighted in App Info etc.
I guess that the default photo viewer is part of the camera app (just a guess), which would explain why you can't change it...
I got the same issue. One solution might be to just use Google's Camera app instead? And disable original camera and album apps. Or would that mess with something else? Like starting camera from camera button/lockscreen?
The Google Camera does work fine with the phone but when you press the camera button outside of the app, it will open the default camera app. Inside the app will just take a picture.

Thanks, but how did you install the fix?
Just follow instruction in the following post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61614006&postcount=7
I uninstalled everything-literally. Works for me. I kept only video editor, timeshift burst, and the analyzer srvice. Opencamera and quickpic for me.
Could you do this for Xperia Z5 Compact?

The best and easiest solution is to root your phone and remove the Sony album app from system/app folder and install any other app from play store (quickpic is the best). I have been doing this on every Sony phone that I have used till now.
Couple of issues I have and wondered if someone could help.
The camera function places a huge grey chunk over 1/3 of the screen, with the capture button and settings. Can this be made transparent?
The pre-installws gallery app seems to have no means of separating photos. I've got my WhatsApp media jumbled with the photos I take and the other videos I've taken. Am I being silly or is this just a garbage attempt by Sony to revamp Android? Additionally, how can I change the default app that is opened through the camera, when trying to explore the media.
Thanks all
Renz
Change the resolution to a 16:9 resolution to get rid of the grey side. That's what 4:3 looks like on a 16:9 screen.
You can't change the default app from Sony's own camera. If you want to use photos from a camera app, use the Google camera app.

In album you can change how your photos are displayed, try the folder option from the left menu.
To change the default app,go to apps in the settings and click the app you want and clear default option.

no , you cant change the default gallery app from there. you can only do it by decompiling the apk and changing a line , or with an xposed module . sony camera doesnt give you the option to change the default gallery app that is launched from the sony camera

hi,
is there a way to enable taking pictures in b&w?
thanks!
No need. Post editing just kill the saturation. Gray scale is preserved.
Shooting it as a raw file will yield better results after post editing.

what do you mean " post editing"?

The built in camera app doesn't do it. Lots of third party camera apps in the store do. Or you can use an image editor after taking a colour photo to make it black and white. Google Photos can remove saturation or use one of several filters.

Snapseed can do it post editing. There are simpler tools if you just want to kill the saturation.
Being able to adjust the contrast curve be nice... When editing color images I normally kill the saturation to initially dial in the contrast curve using just the grey scale ie a b&w image, then dial up the saturation to the best level.
It's really not a big deal...
