If I am note mistaken it's either Shot&More or another version of the Burst Mode.
I remember seeing this function in action, at their Live Broadcast Release Preview Introduction for either the Note 5 or the S6, but I cant find any youtube video of it.

I was only able to find one of the MODE apk that work, the rest of them won't install

The mode I finally found for my photo that I posted is called Surround Shot that has several other features.
I found a youtube video about it and I am sharing a link.

https://youtu.be/_Z943NlJ64g?t=2m4s

OK found out alittle more about the app in reference to my photo that I post. The app was release back when S6 was release. The app was called Shot and More that was under the Surround Shot app. So it was an app within an app within another app. Crazy. I was able to install the app but it not functional. The phone or app freezes for about 15 seconds and gives you an option to send a notification about the failure to Samsung. I went ahead and just beg Samsung to bring that app and Live Broadcast back!!! I'm sure i'm not the only one missing these apps.
Funny thing is that Samsung beg for us to stay with them after the failure of the Note 7, and said they made the Note 8 better.
In my eyes, removing some of the great software apps is not making me happy either. I think it's time for me to dump Samsung and just go with Google Pixel 2 XL....
Them removing these software is a deal breaker for me.

Here's a better youtube video of the "Surround Shot > Shot & More > Drama shot" that was added into the phone. https://youtu.be/TwKJttyNGss?t=3m12s

Camera quality is fantastic awesome.
The build is solid, light to wear, no heat issue.
Cons:
Third party app icon look ugly as no match with it.
Big issue - All voice chat is dead, no sound once GEAR connected, include Whatsapp, LINE & WeChat.

wow seriously how can the camera be that good? and it even performed well in low light.
now im really excited to get one lol.
PS, they should allow only people who have tried them at least a couple of days to post reviews instead of these blog site reviewers who can't even give it a fair and honest review.
to the OP, so how do you like it after using it for some time and do you think this will catch up in terms of buyers?

Are you one of the winner of count down to 3 ? the store you take picture in is the same in the garden midvally in malaysia >< and yes i am 1 of the winner too, the gear is awesome , specially the software is stable and is as smooth as butter but i have to say, the notification is a hell of wrong stuff, the gear is bad in the way, it din't show you all your notification like FB or wechat, you have to download some extra apps in samsung apps stall to get the notification =.=

Yeah! I am on of the lucky winner.
Ya, agree on the notification, Samsung shall do direct show all the notification instead ask people look back at phone for certain notification like from Facebook, this is somehow silly.

Sony's new Camera Apps(Portrait Retouch & Background Defocus)

Will we get this new camera apps for our Z1 with an firmware update?

i would've thought it would be added to Sony Select camera apps rather than in a new firmware.
why make a separate camera add-on store and then not use it.
only guessing
personally id rather they made some good video camera apps. already alot of decent photo apps on the playstore but barely any good video camera apps.
During the CES live stream they said that background defocus was a Z1s exclusive.
But @niaboc79 has confirmed he'll port that apps once we get Z1x dump files.
And if we know and we know that he's developing for Z family of Xperias (we'll get his eXistenZ ROM) - we will get all of that and I'm sure many more aps and features from new devices...

It will come via Sony Select like all the other camera apps
Of course we get all this... c'mon patience guys. The Z1s is not even on the market, they sell it from the 22nd on (update: looks like some shippings are done).
We will have KitKat, a better Camera App and a whole bunch of updates and so on and on and on. Time by time.
Meanwhile why you just don't enjoy this awesome phone?

ESPN SportsCenter App

Does anyone have this working on their Nexus 6? It says not compatible with your device, for me and my buddy both.
Never had an issue with it on my N5 and I use it more than any app.

Is that just the latest version's apk? I'll go that route but hopefully ESPN/Google fixes this, assuming it's thinking the device is a tablet or something.

Yep. Seems like it. Just watched a video on it.
Edit: It's probably a DPI thing. It will get sorted out soon.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Shows that its compatible here, I am on a custom dpi though. At 480 dpi right now.
never worked on any of my tablets. Pull it off another device and and install. Will work fine
I used the APK on both my N6 and N9. Working fine.
Watch ESPN works. I wonder if they have not updated scorecenter for android 5. Last update was 10/14

Have you noticed any issues using 480?
I thought it was an Android 5 issue. My N5, when updated to 5.0, didn't allow me to download it either.
I'll try changing DPI to see if it works.
I'm not 100% sure. My DPI is set to 493, and I can download it. But what I cannot download is the ESPN FC app.
My device is compatible for this app ..
This might not be a popular opinion, but if you can't download ScoreCenter, just download Yahoo Sports. Yahoo's app is a million times better than ESPN's. Trust me, I used to swear by ScoreCenter, but I heard a bunch of people on Twitter hyping up Yahoo's app. I finally gave it a try and was blown away. I don't even bother with ScoreCenter anymore.
Just use market helper to spoof your phone.

I think issue isn't android lolipop its the screen resolution that i is causing the issue I pulled apk using myappsharer from another phone I can post if anybody needs.
did they finally start using video clips that aren't from dial-up? that's the reason i uninstalled earlier this year.

No. It was never "compatible" with any tablet I've owned. I'm sure the issue is screen size

Dual Camera mode / app

Anyone else notice the dual camera mode app is not available on the note 8?
Not even in the download area of camera app add one. It’s on my s8 plus.
There seems to be some confusion about this as well, since on the note 8 dual camera means using both rear facing cameras at the same time. I'm wondering if they can't use the old front/rear cameras at the same time because of the dual rear facing cameras? At any rate, we really liked the pic in pic mode, and hp\ope someone can mod it in, or samsung restores it in an update.
I forgot about this add on. This one's also missing, now? I was just about to post about the missing Surround Shot app. Is it just Samsung trying to push their 360 camera? Screw that noise, those two apps were awesome.
Can anyone here find the APK to add both Surround Shot and Dual Camera Mode (pic in pic mode).
this is all the shooting mode listed under mine.

Nice! Any chance you'd also have the surround shot one?
i have it on my t mobile note 8, I had all the Samsung camera add ons downloaded on my s7 edge when so when I did a system restore, it downloaded them for me from the galaxy app store
I just tried installing it.. it looks like it works, as you see the picture in picture and can swap, but when you take a photo, the inset image does not show up. You'll also have to uninstall it in app manager.

Maybe a software update on camera will fix this random glitch
One of my pics taken( not the screen ) was green similar to that when using flash at night. I didn't think much of it at the time.

Same for me also, but only using Camera PRO mode, Manual Focus. When I try to manually focus on object, green glitches will show on screen

The green you see when using manual pro is just a feature that lets you know its focused on that specific area.. It is not a glitch

What kbrn is talking about (green cast while in manual focus) is a feature called "focus peaking", and, yes, the Note 9 does do it (as does the Note 8, and my wife's S8).
(But that's not what we're seeing in the OPs post since the pics are in Auto.)

Thanks for clarifying, that makes sense. Yes like I said it's likely a software or hardware issue for OP.

I also have this problem after upgrade to Android 9, when I left the camera on background and come back, I see the green code for all the screen of camera:

Looks like Samsung knows about this, on other forums they supposedly ask for patience, but I did not found an official announcement. Somebody knows?
