How to improve camera - new idea?! - RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I found out, that the newest SW-version for the VERIZON DROID RAZR M includes camera improvements.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...ate-version-98-15-66-brings-mostly-bug-fixes/
I would like if we can get these improvements for our razr I too. Maybe it's just a updated camera-app. Can anybody help?
I already wrote in the Razr M forum, but noone uploaded the updated camera app until now.
Thanks!

Anyone know whether this update will come to the razr I? Praying for this to fix the camera performance which is the only thing I hate about this otherwise awesome phone.
I've posted in the Motorola forum but no reply from moto...
Thanks

Google chrome on AOKP ROM

Has anyone using this ROM been able to get google chrome to work? I can install and open the app just fine but when I go to request a webpage, it can resolve websites just fine and the loading bar moves along but nothing ever displays. Does this happen with anyone else?
Sent from my XT894 using xda premium
Same thing for me. Seems like it works perfect other than the fact that the website doesn't actually display.

Exactly!
Exactly! The interface looks really clean and simple. And it appears that the pages load very quick. Just the one little problem of not seeing anything.
Haven't tried this on the D4, but from other devices, Chrome doesn't work because hardware acceleration doesn't work yet. I imagine once we get custom kernels (if that RAZR exploit pans out) or once we get an OTA to ICS and get a 3.0 kernel, this will be resolved.
And fastboot files. That will definitely speed development up knowing you have an unbricking method.

I'm curious what RAZR exploit your talking about, as I haven't heard anything about custom kernels on RAZR or Droid 4.

I'm referring to this thread:

Looks like it is a hardware thing, so if it works it should work for the Bionic, RAZR, and Droid 4!

I can't install the .apk. I've had this problem before with my old Atrix 2. Usually a reboot would fix the issue but this time, no dice. And its not the .apk file as I tried it with files I've already installed. When I hit 'install' nothing happens. I did a quick search and I think this may be common among Motorola devices?
I probably should start a separate thread.
ETA: It was the screen adjuster that was blocking it. I found the solution.

is it better than the standard swype pre installed ?
I've never been a fan of Swype but this keyboard is pretty cool. Seems a lot more responsive than regular Swype. Some pretty nice features in 4.2. Not gonna bother with the clock, though. The circles are a nice touch.
To anyone that is having problems: make sure to move both the original LatinIME.apk and LatinIME.odex from /system/app.

I wasn't able to use it by just the apk . was always giving keyboard has stopped working . However managed to make it work by adding the required .so in lib .

Email app not working

I wrote this on the moto forum also. I have a moto droid og and I would like to use a different ROM but I can because it is a work phone. I need email,Exchange to work. My question is there a way to take the email app from the nexus 4.2 update and use it on a ROM on the moto droid. The email app did not work on 4.1 and under so Google has fixed that issue and that's why it does not work on the ROMS I have tried.
Any ideas guys be cause I am out of them. Thanks for any help in advance

[TEST] Root Call Blocker/ Call Master/ Project Delta needs help with issues on AHD JB

Hi guys. Im one of the developers of Root Call Blocker and a number of other apps using a custom build root telephony layer. There have been recent reports of our apps behaving badly with the new official JB updates.
We need people to check whether this is true - especially people with CDMA devices which we have no access to. Either way, please download the free versions of the apps in question (look at bottom of post for links) and perform some simple tests:
- call yourself from blocked numbers
- text yourself from blocked numbers
- mms yourself from blocked numbers (CM/Delta only)
If something seems to be working fine, please try again just in case. If you have problems, go to Settings and find the "Write to us" item. Once you click on it, be sure to mention in the description field that youre from xda - just put XDA TEST or something.
If you can, please try to include the number that was supposed to be blocked - the logs consist of thousands of lines, so that will help a lot.
Root Call Blocker - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.rootcallblocker.beta
(trial allows one item, you can use groups to block more)
Call Master - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.blacklist
(this one is completely free)
Thanks in advance. Also, you can write about problems here if you like!
I used to use this app on my inspire 4g with no problems. I tried using it with atrix HD and it keeps killing the cell reception over and over. Reboot doesn't help. Just FYI.

Stock camera app now with working download link!

Recently I started to use AICP as it seems to be the most stable for Verizon at the moment. The lack of the stock camera app kind of bugged me and I get that almost all roms will change the camera app. Some people hate the stock app others adore it and others got used to it. I have the apk for the stock app right here and it had been working flawlessly on my xt1575.
I will be uploading mirrors later tonight in case my Dropbox link isn't working
Sorry for the long wait but I'm finally back with a new mirror!!!! https://Bit.ly/1SQgll2
I take no credit for anything I just found the apk
This is not a flashable zip I can make one later if it's needed
This has not been tested on a xt1572 device. Either varient.
Feel free to test for me
If this works for you feel free to leave a comment and a thumbs. Or don't I don't care ?
Thanks. I to found that the stock camera is my preferred app. I had a backup with titanium and I just restored it to system. It works with the twist motion also. I'm on Slim Saber.

No problem. enjoy glad I could help! Also quick question how do you find the preformance of slim?
Slim is very good. The developer came from the G2 to this phone. So I followed suit. ?

I'm using the stock camera and gallery on AICP now. Works fine on XT1572. Got used to it whilst using stock ROM and kinda like it's simplicity.
Link is no good anymore.

That one is ported from the moto g so I'm not positive if anything was changed although I'm pretty sure that the moto x style/pure camera app is the only camera app with the front flash as an option. Seeing as the moto g does not have a front flash it wouldn't make sense for the moto g to have that as option hence there may be a difference. This one came straight from the moto x pure and will most likely work on both varients of moto x styles in every rom. Hope this answers your question!

The Moto G version has the front-facing flash as well so i think that is taken from the X Pure also. It also has the advanced ladybug control activated and both camera and app are installable apks. The app also just got updated a few days back so it is the latest one.

I gotcha. See, when using the stock apk you posted (btw, thanks. ) everything is dandy except I cannot swipe right-to-left to get at the gallery. It just shows the grey placeholder screen. I'd love to have the camera integrated into something just so I can review the last picture taken or what have you.
Any thoughts?

Here's the Moto gallery. Move it into system/app, set permissions, reboot, and you're good to go. It's working fine on AICP for me.
Tyvm for this I'm also running AICP and missed the moto camera, hate the Google one. By any chance can anyone point me in the direction to get the moto gallery as well? Thanks in advance.
Lol you beat me to it thank you for upping the gallery link ^
