It's not worth the trouble, but in the future, it's good to note that you
can almost certainly transfer the Motorola camera APK to any other phone.

All you need to do is install any free backup and restore utility, and
click on the "system" button to show system-supplied apps, and then click
the button to back them up to either the internal storage or external
storage (which I don't think your Motorola phone has).

If the Moto Camera APK is backed up to external storage, you can pop that
sd card into another phone, and then access the APK with any free file
manager program by just tapping on the APK. If it's backed up to internal
storage, you can connect by wire to a PC and then connect the second phone
by PC and transfer the APK over to the second phone that way.

Whether or not that APK will then actually install on a foreign phone
(other than Motorola) would remain to be seen.
