Issue: My camera is now taking pictures that are completely saturated anything white is coming out so oversaturated that it's impossible to see who/what it is.
History: I flashed SZ 1.4 with Tiamat 4.0.5 at the time on September 24, i can confirm that the camera was taking pictures perfectly fine on September 23 because I took a bunch with the Evo camera. They were perfectly fine.
I haven't taken any pictures with the camera since then. I noticed this issue today when I tried to take a picture.
Solutions tried:
1. Flashed a number of kernels with appropriate wiping of dalvik and cache in between, no change.
2. copied the camera.apk file from the original ROM after deleting the one found on the device in \system\apps, this didn't work, camera is still borked.
3. Flashed the stock rooted OTA ROM posted on this site. Camera is still borked.
4. Downloaded and installed a 3rd party camera application. Camera is still borked.
Anyone have any solutions or am I looking to replace the device because the camera went bad?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please and thank you in advance.

Hi SGS Folks!
Have you seen how the new Sony's Cameras capture Panorama Photos by moving the Camera all the way the scene you want to capture?
Well today a beta app developed by Sony can do that in our Mobile Phones...
I've found the app in the original thread for a X10 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116055 and i've corrected the script so we can also enjoy this beauty app...
DISCLAIMER!!!
Always do a back first in case it breaks anything and i'm not responsible if anything happens to your house, your town, your country or your dog... Use it at your own risk though it doesn't mean a major threat since the propetary files go to framework without breaking recovery or something else...
Instructions:
1.- Download and flash through CWM 3+ this script:
1.1 - Download Script
The script contains two SE Propietary files needed for the app to work.
2.- Download and install the attached app named:com.sonyericsson.panorama.apk
Install the app normally through any explorer like a side load.
3.- Enjoy!
Attached you may also find a few pictures taken it really works good on daylight!
Glad my work? Buy me a Beer!
hi mate,
you can already this on the Galaxy S using default camera app. Go to the shooting mode setting and select panorama view from there.
Thanks!
I know we can do this from the Stock Camera but what about the people running on CM7? I heard that it can't be done right?
Anyway i think it's a cool app to have
And in stock camera the picture size is 640*480
Thanx for the app,
Viva Guate!
Enviado desde mi galaxy s
so using this app, i can take panorama picture with full 5Mp.?
does this work in CM7 on others phone??
ie: nexus one/ htc desire
Yes it does. Go in the Android app and games forum. I've made the files for specific phones...

You can use the camera in portrait mode, and get a quite large picture that is 640 vertical, if your hand is steady. Mine wasn't when I was testing this afternoon, and I got only 1968 by 544 (I think it throws away the strips that don't match among all the pictures - so the steadier you are, the larger the vertical number of pixels will be.
"Application not installed" when I try to install it after flashing the CWM package first. I'm on Insanity CM 17. Would love to see this work as I used the panorama mode freguently with Samsung Roms.
just google photaf .... that's much better than this one and it's not beta.
Finding this to be a great app! Easy to use and pretty intuitive.
cant get this to work...
followed the instructions on the first post but keep getting "application not installed"
CM7 nightly #47

thanks

Panorama Beta on SGH t989
Hi folks i know i don't have the same phone as you, and it's been described as "only a galaxy s2 by name" fairly often on these forums, but i'm very much a fan of this app, sony panorama. I had it on my evo 3d, and even with the built in panorama feature in the galaxy s2 phones, i feel this one works much better for uninterrupted panoramic shots, whereas the galaxy s2 feature stitches pictures together resulting in blurs where the stitching takes place and discontinuity of the image.
Anyways. i apologize for this being my first post i have actually been reading around these forums for quite some time, just never signed up for an account.
i was wondering if the file listed here for flashing could be changed to work for the SGH T989, as i have used several files meant for the 19000 such as the v6 supercharger. However, i have also tried to flash a bootanimation only to find under further research that my stock rooted rom does not have an "insecure kernel" and can't flash bootanimations and the like.
So yeah, i was basically wondering if the reason the flash did not work is the same as the bootanimation, and if there's anything you can do to help me obtain this awesome app.
SGH t989 Stock Rooted Rom
I was using the evo4 camera on my Froyo Inc. I updated to the rooted OTA GB and have not been able to get the evo4 camera apk to install.
I really liked having the onscreen picture button instead of the trackball or the tap and hold picture take option.
I have tried several ways to get this installed. If anyone has done it, I would appreciate a walk through.

i think you need the evo GB camera because they might have changed something in the Inc GB that makes this not work anymore.
Guess I will head over to the evo forum.
Thank you. Wasn't sure if it was my method. Probably changed something up.
I forgot a step. Evo4 camera installed
Looks like I had to run the adb shell and first move the HTCCamera.apk to the app.disabled folder.
Without rebooting, I installed the above file through CWM Recovery from the SD card.
Rebooted the phone and I have the old evo4 camera on my GB Inc.
Looks like I spoke too soon. The camera and camcorder open but FC when I try to snap a picture or record video.
I've been trying get this working as well, I pulled this camera from an evo GB rom. It works without force closing, but there is a small graphical glitch after snapping a pic.
I have the evo camera working but you have to set the review duration to no review or else it force closes.
That got it working.
Video recording work on this? I hate using the trackball to take pics. If video recording works might have to install.
Camera and camcorder work. You need to set the review time at no review.
I've tried using different roms even tried stock and different camera apps but i'm still having similar problems. For example: when i use the stock camera app, i can see everything just fine. When I take the picture though you can't see anything. I then go to my gallery and take a look at the photos and its just a black picture. Right now i'm using Silent Camera app, When i app loads the screen is very blurry and distorted. After I take the picture though the picture comes out perfectly clear. I'm not sure what's going on. Right now im' using PAC All-star rom. I've tried everything and don't know what to do. Hopefully someone can help me out with this. Thanks!
u tried Odin stock? if GB 2.3.6 camera app out of the box isn't working, it may be a hardware issue
I am currently running CyanogenMod 11 (M3) for t-mobile. I really need help fixing my camera. I was having problems with my camera earlier but now it is constantly force closing. Just recently the camera updated to Google camera and I was hoping the force would not occur any more, but now it's even worse. If any ideas how to fix PLEASE tell me because I have many needs for the camera. This how the problem occurs: I try to take a picture and it will take it then it will freeze and I have to kill the app. Then I try to restart the app but I get an "Camera error: cannot connect to the camera." The problem was really bad after I flashed the ROM so I deleted that camera and flashed a "better" one. I try to use the other features of this updated Google camera but none of them work such as: lens blur, panorama or photo sphere . I would really love having these features working or even taking regular pictures without any force closes. I have to use the camera everyday so please help as soon as possible. Please anyone help me solve this problem!!!! (Current Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-T999)
Thanks for the help in advance!!!!
Go back to stock..
I tried the new Google camera on C-ROM and had the same problem. Like the previous poster said, go back to CM stock camera.

If you really want to stick with CM 11, maybe try flashing Ktoonsez's kernel. I've been having this camera issue (that's only temporarily fixed if I reboot) for a while, but yesterday I flashed KT747 and it's been working since (knock on wood).
Wow, everyone is well? I recently came out of OSS Beta 21 for an AOSP only with bugs, however I went back to OSS BETA 21 ... I gave the Wipes and installed it, however as you can see I can not hit photo with whatsapp camera at all, all The permissions are ok and I've already cleared the application data.
It makes the sound of the photo but nothing happens.:crying:
Report WhatsApp about the issue and wait for them to fix this bug in the next update.
