Gear 360 File Access & Stitch - Easy Media Access

"Gear 360 File Access & Stitch" is an Android app that allows users to access and manage images and videos from their Samsung Gear 360 (2017) camera. This solution works as a workaround for the official Samsung app, which is incompatible with Android 11. By installing an HTTP server on the camera and using Street View mode, users can copy files to their phone and stitch images/videos into 360-degree panoramas. Stitched files are saved in the Gear360 folder on the device's external storage.

This is a solution to access camera images and videos on Samsung Gear 360 (2017 version) camera.

As the official Samsung app is not working on Android 11, this solution is a workaround to continue using Gear 360 with Android mobile phone.

This application requires:
1. To install the http server on the camera
2. To run the camera in Street View (OSC) mode

Please see the detailed instructions on my Github repository for installation and connection. URL to Github repo:
https://github.com/ilker-aktuna/Gear-360-File-Access-from-Android-phones

The http server on camera will serve the files on OSC (Streetview mode) And the android application will access the files, copy them to the phone.

This application also stitches the images and videos to photosphere (360 panorama) format on user request (STITCH function)
After the stitch operation, metadata for identification of the files as 360 degree panorama is also injected to the jpg and mp4 files.

All images & videos copied from the camera are copied and saved on the phone's external storage Gear360 folder. If stitching function is used, the stitched files are also saved on the same folder.

Video stitching takes a long time.

Too complicated appz🤯🥶🥵..... I even watched his own tutorial yt videos, gethub..... Still don't understand what should I upload on my sd card or how to get access to the camera.... I think he's lack of English language knowledge and our understanding of complicated coding as users, make things worse.... Please simplify things or make tutorials on yt for us, non professional coders, thanks😎😊

I would love the opportunity to justify the 5 star rating, however I can't understand how to carry out Part 1 of the installation. I enjoyed using my Galaxy 360° camera and would love to be able to use it again but I have not used git hub before and can't see how to copy the files and folder structure to the SD card. Please could anyone explain how this is done? Thanks. Success!! Ilker replied to my comment quickly and explained how to download the zip file. Very happy with results.

I am trying g to use the gear 360 camera. I haven't used this yet but being strong g armed to rate it to be able to use it. So let's see then. Will come back and change my 3 if it's GREAT or if it just wasted minutes of my short life.
