help please!

I am new to this, not a developer, and trying to do what's needed to install the s5 camera on my s4. When I go to file explorer and try to rename to samsungcamera2.bak it won't let me, it says "task failed" ...is this because my phone isn't rooted?
I've been giving some thought to rooting my phone because I purchased it outright so I don't have a warranty to worry about voiding, but I'm not exactly sure what it does or if I'll completely screw up my phone trying. It seems like there's been a lot of things I've wanted to do south my phone but couldn't bc it wasn't rooted. Please let me know if I have to root to do this and what the risks are, and maybe include a link on proper directions how to do so. I appreciate your help and this forum! =)

I also don't know how to tell what ROM I'm using, I don't see an option in my settings or about phone that tells me...

HDR not working at all and it isn't better at low light like someone said. All it do is changing metering mode to matrix. If you set your metering mode to matrix in normal mode you will see completely no different between hdr on/off.
Any fix?

Works on Lollirom?

Hi! I was looking to have S5 camera app on Lollirom V 5.0 for S4.

Do you anyone tried it out? or the procedure explained is only possible on Kitkat based roms?

Thank you for any reply! :)

    Oh right finally I get S5 camera working.
    Of course S5 Camera works only on KitKat touchwiz based ROM. Don't ask to get it working on Aosp ROM. Don't work on odex ROM you need a deodexed one.

    If you have i9500 (octa version) and after follow my guide you get bootloop flash THIS instead of my zip. With this method it's not sure that all things is working.
    If you've an S3 or a Note 2 absolutely don't try to flash this mod! Use this variant.



    Make sure to follow all my instruction correctly.

    Instruction to install it:

    1. With a file manager rename in System/App the SamsungCamera2.apk in SamsungCamera2.bak.

    2. Chose and download only one (both works at all resolution) of my two zip:
    - 9.6 mpx (16:9) as default if you prefer full screen photo --> http://www.mediafire.com/?i4vlkemfbcvjm24
    - 13 mpx (4:3) as default if you prefer max resolution --> http://www.mediafire.com/?txbw7m5cxa1tvlv


    3. Flash the one that you choose through recovery and reboot.

    4. Wait until it optimize apps.

    5. [Optional] Go to settings and delete cache and data of Camera.

    6. Now launch the Camera.

    7. If you want you can download all S5 modes from HERE. Install as a normal apk.


    Tip: if you want to restore old camera go to system/app rename SamsungCamera3.apk in .bak and rename the old SamsungCamera2.bak in .apk. Then reboot.

    - What's not working:
    Changing resolution (more than 8Mpx) Fixed with Camera Fix
    Record Videos from back camera (with any resolution) Fixed with Camera Fix
    Tour Mode Fixed in V3
    Slow and Fast Motion Fixed in V4.2
    Panorama (depends on rom)
    Continuous Shooting
    Shot & More
    Selective focus
    Limit MMS (for video recording)

    - What's working:
    Everything except what is written above.

    Thanks to:
    @sorg for resolution and recording fix
    @Djimmy for his note 3 porting thread
    @nplnpl for testing
    @Mr.Bola for Tour View fix.
