so i was able to install it manually via root explorer i chmod 644 to both libs and apk files it installs bt force closes. on xda i have read it works on other 4.0.4 devices I wonder if anyone is willing to test further and try to fix the problem btw gallery sorta works
 
we need a dev on this lol ill upload and link to the camera/libs and @javahnvj13 once i upload the files place them in the right places with the right permissions just chmod 644 them all and logcat | grep camera
 
Yeah we do ha and yeah i'm kind of noobing it up over here so what is chmod 644? ha and i know what logcats are but i've never made one, how would i go about doing that?
 
ok chmod 644 is the same as normal permissions rw-r-r-- like that logcat yu can do it over adb or directly from the motion via terminal emulator typing(without quotes) "logcat l grep camera > /sdcard/camera.txt" umm that l should be a pipe do it by pressing volume up +l

I tried installing the apps from two different zip files still no luck force close each time. The permissions are what they should be. Let me know if you guys get any thing going. Should we have a. Odex file for this like all the other system/app files?

there is the chance that stock camera is causing problems bt idk if we remove them we may cause a soft brick. if anyone is willing to risk(just use the unbrick guide in case it doesn't boot properly) it. just remove the stock gallery+camera and the corresponding odex files as well And if ur willing to test plz provide a logcat(if u may)
 
I tried that
I put the orginal gallery file and camera as whatever.apk.bak and tried running the nexus camera by itself, no luck the gallery works but camera does not work.

I tried the same install on my friends htc evo he did it through recovery and it works except the actual sphere camera but i think that can be corrected by changing the name in the build prop.
