[Completed] Please Help Me (I am severe problem with my Android Tablet PC video recording)

Hello,
Awesome XDA developers. I am seriously in need for some helping hands for my Tablet PC. I have got a China Octa Core 7 inch tablet pc with WUXGA display, MT6592 Octa Core processor, 2GB RAM, 16 GB ROM, Android 4.2.2 OS , 13.3 MP REAR CAMERA, 5.3 MP front camera etc.
So far the tablet is so good with Android 4.2.2 OS. The china company recently gave me an updated ROM for the tablet PC. The update includes Android 4.4.2 OS. I installed the firmware with SP Flash tool 5.5. After installing the OS, I was very happy to enjoy KiTkaT. Every thing were perfect.
Except one strange problem I am facing with Android 4.4.2 KiTkaT upgrade. I can take photos in 13.3 MP high resolution with the rear camera. But when I record videos with "Fine" recording mode or any other modes (low, medium high or fine), the video gets recorded in 640x480 low resolution only. I tried every camera settings did not work. I also check the "build.prop" settings & "camerasize.xml" settings. But nothing worked. For both the front (5.3 MP) and rear camera (13.3 MP) records videos in 640x480 low resolution where as the same camera take photos in 5.5 MP (Front Cam) & 13.3 MP (Rear Cam) resolutions.
But for Android 4.2.2 OS, both the cameras could record videos with 1920x1088 resolution when you choose "Fine" as the video recording mode. I am a beginner level developer. I can not get anything to fix the problems. I reported this to the tab company, they said the firmware company can not fix the problems now. And asked me to use the Android 4.2.2 OS. I have also googled for possible helps with this firmware problems. I found that modifying libcameraservices.so & media_profiles.xml may fix the problems. I found the file "libcameraservices.so" and copied to my PC, opened it with a HEX Editor but am not that expert to correct it. Please help me.
Can the XDA forum experts help me with this miserable problems. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Please help. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Thanks & Regards

Those are libraries that are included in the firmware. Those can't be edited with a Hex editor. Not effectively anyway. What I'd suggest instead is to see if you can install Google Camera App.
But if that too does not work, then for you, the only other thing might be going back to 4.2 short of rebuilding the firmware with right libraries.

Tried Google Camera But Failed

Thanks for your quickest reply to ma text.
I installed google camera. After getting it installed from the play store. It closes with an error when I try to access the camera settings. I also tried to do a trick by copying the "libcameraservices.so" from the Android 4.2.2 firmware & then copying it over the "libcameraservices.so" Android 4.4.2 firmware. Then I rebooted the phone, but it got stuck in the boot logo never rebooted.
Is there any possibility to correct the parameters of libcameraservices.so (Android 4.4.2 firmware) to fix the error..?? I am not that expert in building a custom ROM yet. Can you please help me out..??

Here is the libcamerservices.so for bot Android 4.4.2 & 4.2.2
Hi,
I am upload the "libcameraservices.so" file that I copied from the both the fimware system files. Is there any expert who can check the difference between these two..?? And correct the parameters so that it is possible to record video in 1920x1088 resolution for Android 4.4.2 OS as well.
Thanks & Regards

VPN on Android L

Is there any VPN working on Android L? I can't even log into my Google account and restore my apps in China because everything Google is now blocked....Hola doesn't work, fqrouter doesn't work either. I'd really appreciate if someone could help me with it.
Thanks.

Um you do know that L is a developer preview edition, not necessarily ready for daily use...? I would read thru a bunch of the L threads already out there there might be a hack

I had the same problem. I use VyprVPN for China and couldn't even log into my account. Tried to set it up manually and also failed.

[Q] Android L slightly different from the publications

Hi, not sure if this goes here but here it goes.
I have installed Android L on my Nexus 5, I downloaded the official image from the google developer's site, but as I am looking at pictures (specifically comparisons between KK and L like this http://www.talkandroid.com/211731-check-out-a-visual-comparison-of-android-l-versus-android-kitkat/) I find that there are many things that I dont have, for example a gallery, my android L did not bring a gallery .. or apps like Gmail, keep, etc still look holo blue or KK style not like the nice pictures in many websites showing a new interface.. so to touch base it seems I am running L but the GApps are still KK. Could I have missed to do something at install or what could it be?

[Q] Android L - Camera RAW ability - any App yet?

Hi there,
I read that Android L (finally!!!) allows to pull raw data from the camera and save it as Adobe DNG file. Is there any App yet that makes use of this?

[Q] Android L Preview to "Stable" update, clarification needed

Hi guys!
Small question, or rather clarification needed.
With Android L Preview installed on device will I get all upcomming release updates or stable, final version will require me to perform clean install?
I am just curious if Android L was really released for N5 or Preview version is really something totally different...

Please post in this thread.

Note: When the final Android 5.0 system image becomes available, it will be posted on the Factory Images for Nexus Devices page. To continue development (and receive future system updates), you should update your device with that image as soon as possible.
