    You can download the Google camera app from here:

    http://www24.zippyshare.com/v/27632072/file.html

    It installs separately from the built in camera so you can always uninstall it if you don't like it. I had it set up as default on my S3.

            Maybe I was wrong because I got in touch with xdadevelopers and they are of the opinion that the 'wipe cache partition' command was left out of the new Firmware.
            That makes sense when you see the Android robot fall over with an exclamation mark and the words 'no command'.
            Time will tell.

              Mine says no command.
              Android Icon is lyng dwm with A red exclamation.
              And Wipe cache is throwing Error too.

                I know the scenario you are facing but it seems that ALL S4 phones show the same - even mine!
                When you go into Recovery mode you see the Android robot lying down and the words 'bad command'; but I still went ahead and tried 'wipe cache partition'. It only took a second for the screen to refresh and I am now thinking that it was successful because we are only talking about a few hundred kilobyte of data, not megabytes. The S4 processor would be able to remove that amount in a split second.

                    Anonymous, 15 Sep 2013shubham- last week your were spouting ref update via kies ... moreno one company advises also clean install of windows but why we prefer it. cause is cleaner and all bugs get removed. and if you don't believe me, it's written on many threads of xda. I remembered you that you were the one who wrote bad about my age and all and own wrote immature comments. Also your comments were deleted due to inappropriate content in it. please leave the page as nobody wants you here. anonymous you don't even have a name here.

Please don't be angry with me . it could also be that his country might have got it as the update schedule depends regionally .

                      I HAVEN'T GOT ANY UPDATE. stop bashing on others and make a gsmarena account before commenting bad on somebody.

                      I always remember my comments.
