MUST BE ROOTED WITH FREEZAS ROOT

CHANGELOG

V1 (Aug 25)- Allows for recording up until you run out of space instead of putting a time limit on everything

backup the entire folder system/priv-app/samsungcamera6 , delete the apk, then copy this over to system/priv-app/Samsungcamera6

Download at bottom of this post

After that set the permissions (id recommend checking the original apks permissions before u delete it)
Reboot, (see if the app even shows up), then try recording 4k, it's around 21 minute record time with stock internal storage, with the 256GB sdcard it should be much more

MUST BE ROOTED

my goal is to unlock unlimited recording

samsung allows unlimited on 1920x1080 but not 4k

they even have variables for "limit recording length by system and storage"
but i dont want to root just yet to test
after that im gonna look and see what i can change with the bitrate and quality
then try to make it so u can take a snapshot while recording
then try to make it so u can listen to music while recording

I managed to accomplish this on the note 5 but size limitations and no sdcard slot it sucked.Te note 7 camera was completely rewritten compared to the note 3,4 and 5 and I haven't had much time to play around with it on the note 7 to understand everything fully.

if someone is feeling ballsy go ahead and backup the entire folder ystem/priv-app/samsungcamera6 , delete both the apk and the folder in it, then copy this over to system/priv-app/Samsuncamera6

delete the _src part of the filename

After that set the permissions (id recommend checking the original apks permissions before u delete it)
Reboot, (see if the app even shows up), then try recording 4k,the 10 minute timer is still there but i want to see if it goes past. Looking for ANYTHING over 10 minutes
I understand it's off the subject. I downloaded the file and would test but… Are we even rootable yet? To my knowledge we are not. Atleast chainfire anyways. Is there a confirmed root method out yet?
