Where is android.os.SystemProperties?
This is the class in the Android source code:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/eclair-release/core/java/android/os/SystemProperties.java
See {@hide} in the class JavaDoc? That means this class won't be exported as part of the public SDK.
The camera app uses it as it's internal and they won't use the public SDK to build it.
You may still be able to get at this class
by reflection or
by getting the source, removing
@hideand making your own customized SDK.
However pretty much by definition you are now going 'off SDK' and therefore your app may well be broken or get different behavior on OS versions as the Android folks will make little effort not to change this class between versions.
If you use the "reflection" option, you may use the class below
