This sounds pretty sweet, even tho I'm not rooted myself.

I'm wondering why Samsung set these limits, there must be some stability issues with this, otherwise it makes no sense to me. Btw, is Note 3 FAT or NTFS as standard?

Is it possible to set smooth mode by default so that you don't have to set it everytime? (Changes don't get saved with stock camera)

Limit? I dont have it.
sorry I have not root my n900 yet.
so I have not use your mod yet. I appreciate it.

But The stock Camera only shot photos on recording [email protected] .
If you use Smooth motion(60fps) , You can't shot photos and record together.

So your mod had remove this limit from stock camera ?

Big thanks.:good: sorry my bad English.

On MJ7 ROM this limit is absent.

Possible cause is CSC region restriction.

EDIT
I checked out. You are right. Not posible on stock camera. With my last camera this limit is gone until you switch to 30fps then back to 60fps.
