Superfine Mod for our Note - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Just saw this article on pulse, the gs3 got this new mod and it changes the quality of the camera. When can we expect that on our note?

APK alone won't be enough. There are some needed libs in order for this to work.
Guess we'll just have to wait till someone ports it to our Note.

We will probably get something similar or just a port.

I have this option on Saurom 7.1.... Not sure if it's the same but....

Id like to test it out but Im out all day. Someone test if they can and report back or I could see if i can port it over. May take some time but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Instructions are simple:
"replace original SamsungCamera.apk in system\app\ with this one using e.g. “Root explorer” or something… You need a rooted Device!"
Since it's just an apk, there shouldn't any harm in just testing it out -- just be sure to make a nandroid backup and be prepared to use adb to push the original SamsungCamera.apk back to /system/app if it causes any sort of bootloop/fails.
My suspicion is that it does rely on some of the S3's unique framework or lib files, and the camera hardware itself is also different, so it probably won't "just work"... but ya never know! lol
I also posted on HyperX's site to see if he has any interest in getting it ported to our i717...

Have a link to that CWM zip? It may contain additional system files that support the apk, so I'd like to take a quick look at it.

if this works, it would be sweet!

I just tried to install the apk...doesn't want to install!. I changed permissions and put into system/app then rebooted...it was worth a try but nope...

I did the same. Flashed and put in system/app. Apk stays but doesn't show up. Missing some libs or something to make it work. Maybe someone will make it work.

Its a mod that increases the resolution of the camera. It makes taking videos a bit more smoother and it increases the fps of 1080 and 720 video. They say that 60 fps is soon to come.

on my Note and there is a Superfine setting in Settings>Resolution in the camera app - don't know if this is a Gingerbread setting or if it comes along with Saurom.

[MOD][For i717 LE2/LF5/LF6 ROMS] -phMOD- (Beta2 6/5/2012) Adds most SGS3 "Stuff"
phMOD beta2 for ANY rooted and deodexed LE2/LF5/LF6-based i717 ROM
This will NOT work on the stock Official LF6 build that comes directly from AT&T -- rooted or otherwise.
This will NOT work on CM9, AOKP, or any other AOSP-based roms.

What is phMOD?
For those custom ROM users who may have been considering a switch to a different ROM just to gain the SGS3 Touchwiz "stuff," I whipped up this small mod to make it easier to get all of the same functionality.
**If anything is missing or broken, tell me and I'll be glad to make another update!**
**The only thing that requires FJ's modded kernels (those with init.d support) is the higher-res ICS boot animation.**
**Please report back with the results on various roms so that I can add them to the tested list.**
Note: This is a BETA mod, so please be sure you have a nandroid backup handy in case I accidentally screwed something up.
Changelog
BETA2 (5 June 2012):
-- Added S-Note (Official)
-- Fixed S-Voice (different modded version with supporting files - seems to work much better! Thank you Mahmood!!!)
-- Added SGS3 Audio files (notifications, ringtones, alarms, ui)
-- Added SGS3 Live Wallpapers (DeepSea, LuminousDots)
-- Removed FJ-specific system files which "should" allow this to work on any i717 UCLE2 rom that uses FJ's modded kernel with init.d
-- Added EVEN MORE SEX APPEAL!!
BETA1 (25 May 2012):
-- SGS3 Touchwiz Launcher
-- S-Voice (Modded version to fix network error)
-- A few SGS3 Touchwiz widgets
-- Flipboard
-- Higher Res ICS Boot animation
-- Some minor debloating (Yellowpages and YPmobile)
-- More sex appeal
Instructions:
1. Flash the zip in CWM
2. Wipe caches (Cache + Dalvik)
3. Reboot System
**Thank you to every single genuine i717 ROM developer!!!!**
PS: This happens to be the very first time I've ever crafted a CWM script. It was cool to learn how and finally contribute something (albeit something VERY minor) to the community! As a former coder (15-20 years ago! Yikes!), this may have just inspired me to do even more... maybe... we'll see......smali scares me! lol
why did you do this when there is a rom that does the same thing

Because you shouldn't need to wipe everything, flash a full "ROM," and then have to reinstall everything just to get a few new apps and files that actually require nothing more than a much smaller flashable zip (aka a "MOD").
This add-on gives you all of the same functionality while allowing you to stick with your own ROM.
Thanks for the addon, it's nice to have a standalone package!
I am here to learn.
Well this add on makes sense IMO instead of flashing the same rom to get a add on !!! Good idea OP no we don't have to restart everything for it

Mine seems to be working, for now, but it looks like a lot of people on different phones are still having that problem -- even with the modded apk I included in this add-on.
I'll look into it some more and let you know what I find out asap!
jwood55812 said:
It does seem kind of vindictive to point out a specific rom, and show how you can take the unique parts from that and put it into another rom. I realize these aren't massive changes so it doesn't really warrant a separate rom, but like I said, feels vindictive. Thanks for the addon though, it's nice to have a standalone package!
Edit: With quotes like...
"For those who may have been considering a switch to the OnlyOne "ROM""
and
"or, perhaps more accurately, this "Add-on" -- will give you everything you get in the OnlyOne "ROM.""
it just seems like you're publicly dogging the other rom creator

Since being "vindictive" was never my goal, I'll change the language around in an attempt to make it sound less harsh. Sorry about that!
EDIT: Done! Since I think I already succeeded in making my original point, I went ahead and removed those references in the OP.

You could always just open the ROM's install zip, browse to the updater script and remove the delete entries for system and data. I know I have successfully done that in the past to alleviate a "heavy re-install session".
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT MAY HAPPEN FOR DOING SUCH!

You're right of course, that would work. In fact, that's essentially how I made this simple mod (with a little research to ensure I had working apk's and other support files)
Not many users want to mess with cwm zip files and scripts, though, so I did the whopping 10 minutes of work and testing for you!

Can you try wiping cache and dalvik, fix permissions (in cwm), then test the app again?
If that doesn't work, use TiBu to wipe data for the S-Voice 4.0 app, then try opening the app again.
Worst case, I'll make a beta2 to move svoice-signed.apk to /data -- which seems to have helped some people get it to work more consistently.
Let me know!

Youre out of line buddy! Almost reported your post, but we all make mistakes
OP: Thanks for coming up with this. With a little tweaking this could be real good. Just remember how many people were all like "I want the sg3 stuff" Now its here, and you get ridiculed... doesnt sound kosher. Thanks
Flashed, everything is smooth as butter except svoice. Constantly FC on me. Other than that its awesome.

By the way, if anyone wants to provide me with the framework-res and build.prop files from other UCLE2-based roms, I may be able to make versions of this mod that work for those as well. (doing so may require risky testing, so up-to-date nandroid backups are highly encouraged!)
If nobody provides those files, I may just go hunt them down myself -- but, I'd have to download all the other full roms and updates this weekend to do that, so it would be much faster just to upload those two files for me here.
EDIT: It may even work on other UCLE2 roms by removing those two files from the mod altogether. (I didn't do so originally because I really wasn't sure if they're necessary, and keeping them in doesn't seem to harm anything on FJ's ROM, so I thought it best to err on the side of caution and leave them in).
I'll get something out to test that theory later today!

It's not built for the Nexus, it is built for the Endeavor (One X). I am tweaking the zip, will post results.
EDIT: As expected, it doesn't work. Phone just bootloops. I will be working on a AOSP ICS conversion mod for our own device. I will post it when it's somewhat off the ground. For the record, the AOSP apps from that ZIP do work, just extract them and push them to system/app I tried contacts, phone and MMS so I can vouch for those. Only thing is (and this even happens with the MMS app ported to our phones) MMS messages don't work, only SMS.
EDIT 2: I was going to hold off on releasing this until it was a bit more completed, but seeing as more than three of us want a stock looking phone. Here you all go :

DIFFERENT CAMERAs for i717

hi...i was wondering if there were any different camera apk's that i could flash on my i717 Note. i am currently on Jelly Beer 3.35. I'm looking something from a different device that maybe has different tools/options than the one on this ROM. i beleive the camera that it has is the ICS one. ive heard of people using camer apk's from Motorola, HTC One X and other devices but not sure how they did it. i didn a search but couldn't find anything for the Note i717. could someone please point me in the right direction......
Use a camera app from the market.
Read what kind of cameras and features are available for your note. Download the rom, unzip it, copy the camera apk. and any dependencies to your phone.

I did not see this feature available by itself, but I did some digging and found and tested a version that works on the Note 2 (See this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048668
For reference it works on my deodex rom (see pic), not sure about odex (or if any Xposed mod works on odex for that matter).

Yes, you are Odex. According to above it will work for you. Just install the .apk. I wouldn't use the 240 version.

Works perfect on S4 to get around the bug where it drags a different icon just load all the apps you want to have multi window then reboot and they will be in alphabetical ordered and its easier to drag them in place and keep the icons you want.

I have tried to get a logcat but there is literally so much spam going on with my current Touchwiz rom that i find it a waste of time to comb through it or upload it. When I finally flash a AOSP rom i will try again and upload a logcat. Here is a tutorial with i found to be complete crap and lies...

They said it works when obviously it doesnt. I noticed they they installed in on the international version with the 8-Core and we are using the Quad Core model. Maybe that is the reason.
Any help will be greatly appreciated and a donation will surely follow once we get this straightened out.

Yeah, I would be curious if it worked on an current device w/ aosp or AOKP rom, as opposed to a tw rom. I really think that tw screws the photosphere up...idk...a few more flashes and I'll know. BTW, got a link to the photosphere app? I lost mine on backup and for the life of me, I can't remember where I got a good version of it...

I tried Carbon rom and it did not work there also, i believe that is built off of Cyanogenmod so i'm pretty sure its something to do with our device specifically... but what do i know. thats why i asked this question in the first place.
Google hasn't released the code for photosphere so its buggy on aosp ROMs
ill be glad to try it out when they do. why wouldnt they have something like this ready for such a great phone?

Bump i would like to see some more progress.
I see that in the SlimBean rom he has a Addon for Photosphere but i dont think it is compatible with our phone =/
Also the AOSP Roms have the GalleryGoogle.apk that work but stripped of the photosphere... come on people someone has to know how to fix this.
:leads for help::

Samsung is saving "S-orb" to be released as a feature of the galaxy note III. We'll get an update adding it then.

I managed to get it to work on the DNA(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2017875) but I've tried and the same way won't work here.

Yes this does work on the DNA i have also confirmed this... but it does force close on our S4. I have checked that zip against a couple other zips i have found the the md5's have checked out and are the same.
Also changing the build prop does nothing to stop the crashing.
Photosphere for I9505 now available...

put it on your sdcard and make sure install from unknown installers is checked and click it. Choose install and bam. I tested on Hyperdrive TW ROM.
Works like a champ on Clean!

also i have heard that if you have any other version of Gallery.. aka Gallery2.apk you may have to delete that first to get it to work.
OMG I love whoever got this working . Thanks. Works great on Jellybeans build 3!
only thing that sucks is u cant change default storage location. everything will go on internal storage
Works great on rootbox rom.. Storage internal hmmmm...

Yeah, I don't know which rom you are using, but on my rom I ended up with two gallery's and two camera's, which makes sense sort of. One gallery and camera for tw and one gallery and camera for 4.3 photosphere. I chose to leave them, but to each his own...
