Camera locking pda2k - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Yesterday, I tried to take a picture and my device locked up. So i soft reset the unit, tried to take a video this time around, same thing. So then I hard reset the unit, no soft apps installed just base app from i-mate and tried it again still the same thing.
when i launch the camera app, i get the preview on the screen as usual before i press the button to capture the shot, now when i click the capture button the picture has distorted lines on the screen and when trying to take a video, it appears to work fine, but when i play back the video the image is a static image of the first still shot i took....
this is so strange, the camera worked fine on the 3rd of January, no new apps installed, nothing taken out either, no hardware changes whatsoever... no rom upgrades done so far etc
anyone having similar problems?
my rom rev info:
1.12.00 WWE
date 09/02/04
radio ver# 1.02.00
protocol 1337.32
extrom 1.12.134 WWE

Camera Issues

Camera doesn't work
I went to use the camera on my Dash the other day but when I pressed the camera button, nothing happened. I've tried every which way to get the camera to work but everytime I try to load the camera application nothing happens. I've gotten the camera to work in the past so I don't know why it doesn't work anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks!
By the way, I'm running WM6.
press and hold the button
I am fully aware that you have to either hold the button or press alt+camera - I read the manual. I should have made that clearer in my original post, sorry.
s620 camera problem
Hi guys, really would appreciate some help on this...
I just got a HTC s620 from shipped from the states (I'm in New Zealand), and I've noticed a problem with the camera.
The first day I got it, I was able to use the camera despite it being a little buggy and it would crash at times...
Since the second day, everytime I try to go to the camera or video recorder app, the app will crash. The little loading symbol comes up for a few seconds and then everything stops. I am able to go back or back to the home screen. I have tried soft resets, multiple hard resets, but nothing works!
It is so frustrating, this is such a great little device, but the camera issue really skunked me!
Do you thinking re-flashing the ROM would help? I am hoping that when WM6 comes out, it would solve my problem...
It's hard to get it serviced as I am overseas!
me too
I've been having the same problem and I have WM6 - I think it started happening after I upgraded. I would reflash the ROM but the thought of deleting everything and have it still not work is a little scary...
well...I flashed the ROM today with the HTC WM5 version...
still no luck! Now I'm starting to think that this is a hardware fault...
Any ideas?
Excalibur Camera
I`ve read in other article (don`t remember where), that the HTC Camera is limited by software in 1.3 mp... actually, the camera has 2.0mp.. anyone knwo anything about that? With any kind of patch, it`s possible to record videos with a better quality?
Thanks,
Regards!
oh, that would be so cool.
Not that the camera is what made you buy this phone, but still, if you can better, then why not!!!
I'm hoping some1 knows about this.
tatarezende, send us the link for this forum where you read this.
That would be soooo awesome !!
Shouldnt be that hard actually to extract the 2.0mp driver from a some newer device with 2mp, like the S710 maybe!?? Would be really cool...but we should have a glance on the article..
hm...if we can hack or tweak this camera to take pictures at 2.0 MP - that'd be the ice-breaker cause that's the only thing this phone's lacking and that's a minimum requirement of a 2.0 MP Camera based on the standards today.
now, i personally use a Ateksoft Cool Camera as my camera application,
http://www.ateksoft.com/
check it out. it really works. i've used it a couple of times, you have to play around with the settings to get it to work properly but yeah, the pictures are quite vivid.
so... still no news about unlocking camera?
Yes sirrrr that would be nice

Broken Camera?
Hey everyone, first real post here.
I purchased a "new" T-Mobile Dash about a week ago, and received it about 2 days ago. I just unlocked it to make it work with my network (AT&T), and while messing around with the phones features I noticed that the camera wasn't working.
I've jumped from 3 different ROMs: The newest official T-Mobile ROM, the newest Roger's ROM (not sure what number), and now I've finally found and downgraded to T-Mobile's WM5 ROM (1.11.531.1)
Only now that I have downgraded to WM5 does the Camera application actually boot. At least now it displays an error message, "Unable to initialize camera. Failed to set up the camera device." I am assuming that this is a hardware issue, any thoughts?
Camera not working on DASH after upgrading
Hi,

Thanks
Dee

YES I tried the hard reset it still didn't work. I have not tried reinstalling the WM6, can you send me the link to download the same as I don't have it anymore.
Thanks
Agree with you... can't get the camera to work. Only get the spinning "loading" symbol for a couple of secs and then nothing happens. WM6

HTC Desire video recording problem

Would you be so kind and tell me how to video record on this device (HTC Desire)?
I go to Camera, choose video, format (for example 720p, MPEG4), then it sasy ''press optical trackball...'' (just like when i take photos).
Ok, when I press this optical trackball nothing happens.
So I assume I can't take videos.
This phone is 2 weeks old and I've updated it with 2.2 FOTA.
Not rooted.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. Would ''reset to factory defaults'' help?
Strange.
Do you have a microSD card installed?
Yeah, I have.
The one I got with the phone.
Samsung 4g, sdhc, Class 2 I think.
edit - Few hours ago I've tried reset to factory defaults and that didn't help.
Contacted HTC and will see their response.
But if any of you know what might be a problem, please help.
edit 2 - also tried another SDHC card, 8gb, clas 4.
Got the same problem.
I have video problem as well
whan I starts the video recording the phone stop working and for 10 seconds I get alarm sound the the phone restart
Hi. I have a similar problem. I cannot record videos although I can take pictures. For video recording when I press the trackball it disappears and after I stop pressing my figure the trackball appears and automatically adjusts the zoom and clicks like when it takes a picture but nothing happens. I can move the trackball around the screen. I have an 8 gb micro sd but the same problem was with the original card of 4 gb.
Think I have same problem
Cannot record videos with camcorder anymore.
Nothing happens when pressing trackball.
Exit to home is slow, and after a failed try, an application/service called "Mediaserver" takes cpu and drains battery.
Searched, but have not found any solution, only many more having the same problem.

If I am right, I read about this problem. Try to delete the last video you've recorded. Or remove all the content from your camera folder (sdcard/DCIM/100MEDIA) - in case first solution didn't work.
Thanks!
Deleted all pics, movies and thumbnails from sdcard/DCIM/100MEDIA.
Works like a charm, really thought it would be something more tricky.
Think the app needs a bugfix, one corrupt jpg-/3gp-file shouldnt break camera, camcorder and drain battery...thats bad error handling.
Thanks a lot for the tip!

I have the same problem ,,, any ideas ??

"Unfortunately, HTC Sense has stopped." when shooting photos

Hey,
I have this weird issue on my HOX, it started this weekend and it's SUPER annoying.
First, some background: 3.20.401.1 software version, all stock HTC and untouched, CID is HTC_001.
The problem happens every time I launch the HTC camera app - sometimes the message appears before I take the first shot and sometimes the message appears after I take the first shot. However, as long as I'm in the camera app, the next shoots won't cause the message to appear, if I close the camera app (capacitive "back" button), Sense completely reloads and every attempt to relaunch the camera app and take another photo (again, only the first photo) would cause the message to appear again.
What can be the reason for that? It pretty much makes me think more than twice before I take a picture...
Is it possible that my phone is running on low memory? I have attached a screenshot from HTC Task Manager, just in case
I want to try and find a solution before going all the way with factory reset.
Please, if you have any creative idea, I would love to give it a try.
First of all, go to application management and clear data of the camera app.
If that won't work, do a factory reset. The final resort would be to send the handset back for warranty repair.

Thanks for the advice.
Tried clearing the camera data and restarted my phone but Sense keeps crashing when shooting the first photo.
Guess a factory reset is inevitable.
Hope it's not a hardware problem.

Can't record video at all. No radio, too

Heya there, I have this a505G which is giving me headaches. Since my sister bought it, everything worked but video record function. Photos work well, even hyperlapses and slowmo sometimes but if I try to record a good ol' video, it just gets stuck in there. No counter begins, but I can take photos from the button in the right. Stop and pause do nothing to help. The phone came with android 10.
What I tried:
·Cache clearing. Data clearing. Factory reset.
·Alternative cameras, Open Camera and Footej
·Flashing 3 different sammobile firmwares, all android 10 (only ap slot)
·Flashing 1 android 9 sammobile firmware (ap+bl since android 10 bl didnt let me flash android 9 system) And now I cant unlock bootloader weeee
·Patting the phone really gentlemanly with a battle axe
·Crying to google to find no one has ever crossed upon this problem in this device
Any ideas?
PD:When I try to use the radio which sometimes after a lot of patting detects my earphones are indeed connected, it says something between the lines of "radio cannot be turned on while the camera is in use"

DASAITA PX6, 360° Camera stopped working

Hi there,
I have a Max10 PX6 in my NP300 Navara and it worked just fine until recently. Now the Camera just shows a black screen when shifting into Reverse or activating it via the steering wheel button. I already wrote an email to the support and, after a while, i was told that the issue is known and i should update the MCU.
First of all I can't imagine why updating a system which ran without problems until it stopped to do so should make the camera work again.
Anyways, I updated the MCU and still get the black screen instead of 360° Birdview. Considering the size of the NP300 thats a real pain in the neck.
Anybody out there who might be able to help?
After updating to current MAX10 Version still only a black screen when shifting to reverse. The factory unit displays 360° Camera without a problem.
