No Movie Studio Vid Editor on my GT6210 (US version)??

Hello,
Has anyone found a good alternative to Movie Studio? I've been using it on my Iconia A500 (10in. screen) and find it worth having. So other than the smaller screen, is there an oficial reason why we 7.0Plus owners didn't get this "standard" app.... or did everyone but me get it?
I've just downloaded a couple .apk's posted here to try to side load the app, but I guess I'm wondering if my GT6210 should have come with it in the first place.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Don't worry I'm on the same boat as you...have original tab my 7.0 Plus is on the way as we speak. Movie Studio is a huge improvement that I loved in the other Honeycomb tabs. I'll be sure to update you on if mine came with it. In the meantime, were you able to install a Movie Studio apk you've gotten your hands on?

Yes , I was able to install the "deodex" version from this thread http:// forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990465&page=2 - look for the file in post #12. But it didn't quite work for me. The UI doesn't adjust for the smaller screen (though the lower screen resolution is most likely the issue), so the video playback window blocks the top timeline and half of each control on either side. This made it basically unusable for me- the only good news is the app is otherwise working --clips imported, drag and scrubbing worked, imported clips played in that oversized preview window- without crashing. So if the UI could be tuned with a little hack-fu......
Anyway, hope this helps ya in some way. Please let me know if you find a solution. Thanks!

I just installed this app -AndroMedia https://market.android.com/details?id=com.techcatmobile.andromedia&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS50ZWNoY2F0bW9iaWxlLmFuZHJvbWVkaWEiXQ.. and so far I like what I see! It's free and looks like it can do the job. I've only done a quick test, but this may even be better than Movie Studio - though it has a small add at the bottom of the screen and the UI lacks Movie Studios modern look, but in some ways this one is more intuitive.
Worth checking out for sure!

Well I'm not sure if you want to install another app to do this, but there are multiple apps which allow you to "adjust" the resolution of your screen which should allow you to view the complete app. I know I saw a nice looking app for this purpose but unfortunately cannot remember it off the top of my head....I've also tried AndroMedia on my original tab which I have until my new tab comes tomorrow but it just FCs but am happy to try it again with the new dual-core! Hopefully we can get this figured out...just one of those apps I reallllly want!!

There are apps that will adjust my screen rez? I'm guessing they must simulate the different resolution, or are they tweaks/hacks? I've heard of the tweaks that change the dpi or pixel density, but none that change screen rez. I'd be most appreciative if you can recommend any reliable ones.
AndroMedia works fine on my GTab 7.0+- no FC's ... yet. Maybe by the time we get this video editor app figured out, Samsung will release a version that works with the smaller tabs, lol. I'm amazed at the lack of any real alternatives to Movie Studio.... isn't anyone using Android devices to shoot video? Or are they not doing anything more complex than 1 take shots...? Not to rub anyones nose in it, but check out what Avid just released for the iPad- http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/avid-studio/id491113378?mt=8 better than iMovie and will export working projects to Avid express! I just started working with it (I need to use iOS and Android for work) and have to say it's pretty amazing. Come on 'droid!
Anyway, thanks again for your input on this issue!

[Q] Supernote on Tab 7 plus?

I am trying to find a good note taking app to go along with my GT-P6210, and I came across the Supernote app on the Asus Transformer. I have heard some great things about it, but I can't find it in the app market. Does anyone know if its compatible with the Tab 7 plus?
Also, if you know of any good note taking apps for a college environment, feel free to suggest. I am looking to be able to make bullets and sub bullets (something evernote cant do) and I would like to be able to write or draw directly into my notes with a stylus.
Evernote w/ skitch allows me to write/draw, but the downfall is that it groups all my drawings seperate from my notes.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Supernote is specific to that tablet but there is an extracted apk though it's not optimized for our tab. Search the forums for it.
You can try quill.

I looked up quill and I may be wrong, but it looks like you can only write. But I found a Supernote apk so ill try that out and let you guys know how it is.

It's working, but not fit to screen... deleted.

Supernote is such a good app...........but it doesn't fit the screen. The sidebar gets cut off so you can't use certain features. It would be amazing if it was optimized for our size tablets

I like Supernote so much I've adapted to using it on the GTP with parts of the app being off screen. I'm hoping that if Asus ever releases the Memo 7" tablet to market there will be a version of Supernote for it. They've teased it at the 2011 & 2012 CES.

alternative to supernote
The app that I use more is Catch Notes, cause it lets me syncro with my phone, but it is not on the same league.
Give GNotes a try. I just recently discover it. It has bullets, you can type, handwrite, attach a picture, a video or some sound.
But actually, I was so busy trying to find a good app, that I didn't realize how good the stock application included in the tablet is. I'm taking about the one that can be found in the bottom bar. You can attach pictures, you can synchronize (haven't try yet), you can write anyplace in the sheet, handwrite (better than GNotes) and it floats on top of the other windows, allowing you to take notes while you are reading an article, for example.

I totally agree with you. The stock app is totally good! It even syncs well with Google docs.

Issue with Camera

Hello. I've just installed MM 6.0.1 by downloading the stock rom. As default, the Motorola Camera was the one in my phone, but I as usually do, I set de DPI to 270, so, the Motorla Camera doesn't work. The Google Camera doesn't show up at Google Play. I've installed the .apk but the first time I run it, it appears the tutorial and I have to swipe left to see the video feature. When I arrive at this point it shows me that "We can not establish connection with the camera" and it closes. I've tried to do the photo at the very beginning of the tutorial and it allows me to take photos and selfies, but it closes if I want to make a video. Any possible solution? THX!

This is a well-known issue which I had as well, although it was on a different device running marshmallow. No matter what I did, when I swiped to Video, it threw an error. There are several suggested fixes around for a similar problem, i.e. for devices which can't access the Google camera at all, not even for stills. It took me a while to find the solution that worked for my problem, and it was driving me nuts. The thing that worked for me was quite simple, tho - downgrade your Google camera app to a previous version. The latest version as of now is 3.2.045. The version that cleared up my problem was 2.7.008. A long time since, I've had not one issue with it The apk for 2.7.008 is easily found online. Obviously, tho, you will lose some very minor things when you downgrade, but very few.
By the way, why not consider another video app, even if that solution works for you? The Google camera one is good, but I've got a few I like a whole lot more, and each for different reasons and situations. My favorite is probably A Better Camera as a great all-rounder, or Camera360, which has a load of killer effects and tools. Camera Zoom FX and Camera FV-5 are really nice, too. Again, they are all easily found on apk sites. Load them up, have a play round, and keep what you want. It's a lot of fun, really
HTH :fingers-crossed:
Oh, and a side note... if anyone likes playing around with editing videos, Cyberlink's latest PowerDirector is muy nice, even on my Nexus 7. Full featured for a tablet app, and remarkably workable and fast.

Showing photos on an exposition

Hey guys,
I'm a photographer, and soon ill show some of my work on an exposition. I would like to show some pictures on a tablet and create the possibility for the audience to slide trough a selection of photos.
Basically, im looking for an app or website that restricts the user in all actions besides sliding between photos fullscreen, also no enchancing and stuff if possible. Best case scenario it would be possible to completely lock the tablet and not give anyone the possibility to quit the app. I already checked a lot of presentation or photo frame app, but none of them really fits the job.
Ideas will be greaty appreciated.
Im working with a kobo arc 10 HD tablet with root, android 4.2.2

Ability to use front and rear camera at same time

I use a app called Torque with an addon called Track Recoder as a dash cam while driving. It's a great app and it ties into a bluetooth OBDII adapter so i get real time info on my videos. Right now I can select the rear camera or front camera but would like to use both. The option in the app to use the front and rear camera is there but from what I have read it's part of the OS only allowing me to use one camera at a time and I can't get around it.
Is there a custom rom or will rooting the phone allow me this option? I have rooted plenty of phones in the past and have no problem doing it to my S8 Plus if that is what needed.
Anyone have any insight? Would really like to be able to record my drive using both cameras.
Thanks!

Do you have access to the Samsung app store ?
---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 PM ----------
If you do. Search for something called Dual camera. It's an add on by Samsung free to download. Download and enjoy man

I have installed that hoping it would work but no luck. It will work if using the Samsung app but anything outside of that it won't. I attached a couple screen shots from inside the app I am trying to use this with. From what the developer said it was specific to the Samsung S8 and the OS, which is why i was hoping maybe a root and custom rom might solve the problem for me.
I selected the forward facing camera for camera 2 and it just says it's offline.

Here is the note from the developer of the app.
I have a s8+ which does support dual camera but not through tracking recorder. there is a app from Samsung called dual camera so yes, dual camera works. just sucks track recording wont allow it. i need it because i need to record what passengers do in my vehicle.

Hi!
That uses samsings proprietary APIs (which basically use their own chip to do picture in picture on the main camera picture – so the app only sees one camera)
Unfortunately Samsung haven’t made this API public, so it’s not possible – if someone managed to reverse engineer it then that’s great, though it’s not public and not a ‘standard’
Sony did it properly (as did LG) and as a result, using the Android standard camera API it can correctly see 2 cameras, however samsungs can’t as they don’t become visible as 2 seperate cameras, but instead ‘merge’ the picture into the ‘first’ camera and I currently have no way to access that proprietary(read: a custom way the manufacturer decided to do it instead of the android way) to get it to work
