What camcorder app can I use in ICS roms? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The stock ICS camcorder isnt working in ICS so what can I use instead that will give me the basics like I had in the GB roms?

So far none. You can try and download videocam illusion from play store.

Thanks.
I'll go back to 2.x for now, vcamillusion was okay but the quality was junk and would record choppy at higher resolutions.
Ahh well, one day, or I'll get a new phone at some point I suppose.

[APP] Instagram out now for android

The popular iOS app is now available for our phone!
The only problem i had was that it would force close when choosing a photo from the gallery. Other than that its a great app!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.instagram.android
I'm having an issue where it FC's everytime I try and take a picture
I'm having that same problem. Has anyone figured a way around it? I tried restarting my phone, but that didn't help.
another with FC
Epic touch on Mijjahs Rom and I get FC once I click on the camera icon to port a picture... lame
What you can still do to upload for the time being is go to your gallery and share the photo through instagram. It acts as a post. I think the app works fine for people with a stock phone.

Probably true, but then I would have to choose... root or instagram.... Uh thats easy I prefer ICS and there's plenty of apps with Filters.
It's also force closing for me on Calk's latest FC24 ICS rom. I haven't tried it on GB. I'll probably flash Blazer 4.1 and see if it runs.
Can anyone with a GB based ROM tell me if it's force closing for you also? It only crashes when you try and take a pic. Hmmm...

Hi, I have a question. What do you mean by sharing it through Instagram and have it acting as a post?
I went to the gallery, shared an image, selected Instagram, but it took me to the "filter-apply" screen, which is the point where it force closes.
Am I doing something wrong? I wouldn't mind editing photos in another app and just posting them on Instagram, and I understood that's kind of what you meant.

When you share it via instagram it allows you to use the filters. Atleast it did for me. I was thinking about trying to flash to FC24 to see if it did anything but I guess it's not working for you either. Hmm, anyone wanna try on a GB build?

I'm flashing Blazer 4.1 (gingerbread) right now to see if it works. Will post update in just a few minutes.
(I was reading the reviews for this app on our device in the play store and all the people who have stock e4gt say it works fine btw.)
**Update: it's working on GB. It's a little flaky still but I am able to capture pics and upload okay. So it's definitely ICS or some combination of things on ICS. I'm sure it will be working when official OTA comes out. I'm going to go back to calk's ICS for now as I don't really care enough about instagram to use GB. I've been just fine without instagram since it came out, and I'll be fine without it for a while longer.
to get photo upload to work, go to the my profile tab (last one to right), then in the upper right hand corner click the settings dots. once in there, deselect IG ADVANCED CAMERA

What's the "instagram advanced camera" supposed to be?

Camera missing after CM-10 Update

After I updated from CM-9 20120909 to CM-10 20120915, I lost my Camera. Is this a known issue or did I loose a file during update. I pulled the update off Goomanager and flashed through TKRP. Also , what is best 3rd party camera app for the S3? I didn't mind the stock app.
I flashed the CM10 9/15 nightly coming from CM9 and I got a stock camera. You can try re-downloading the file and then re-flashing or you could get this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=slide.cameraZoom.
I don't use it myself, but I have a friend who swears by it.
Not sure on CM9, but on CM10 disabling the gallery app kills the camera.

Thanks! I will take a look later tonight and see if this is my problem. I went ahead and flashed back to CM9 earlier today. I might wait on future CM10 updates. I also started to notice the flicker issues folks were talking about.
I would say try re-downloading CM10. Asides from the camera issue, I've actually noticed less flicker from my download of the CM10 9/15 nightly compared to my old CM9 build. Granted my CM9 build was older than yours (I think 8/25), but from what I understand, CM9 isn't even supposed to have flicker.

I had zero flicker with CM9's current update. I flashed CM10 9/18 last night by doing a complete wipe and factory reset, since camera was missing on the CM10 9/15 I flashed updating from CM9. It's weird , after flashing 9/18 I had camera when I opened up my Gallery , but no camera icon on the homescreen. It seems when I flashed gaapps, I lost the camera option all together. There is a generic camera Icon shortcut on the lockscreen, but it will not open. Am I missing something here ? Gallery is enabled.
Did you flash JB gapps? Since CM10 is based off JB and not ICS that could be it, although I don't see how gapps could affect the camera.
You saved my life!

Did you read 3 post above tours? You need to flash gapps if you did then you have a corrupt download.

Problems with camera on CM10

I'm running the current stable version of CM10 and love it except for one problem. The camera sucks now. It will not focus. It seems to be stuck on infinity even though in the settings I've changed it to everything from Auto to macro.
Is it possible to load just the stock camera on top of the CM camera module?

You've done something wrong. Many people are running this ROM with no problems to the cam

Can't run stock camera on cm due to drivers not playing well together. But U can run the android 4.2 camera. There are flash able zips all over the place for it. Only downside I've seen from it is if flash is on it'll crash gallery but that only happens to some people. Either way its worth a try sense flashing it won't replace the cm camera just runs along side it.

Thank you. THAT was a helpful answer.
Now I just gotta find that zip.

Well, Now it's really broke. I flashed the camera file from your link and when the new camera launches it crashes when I try to take a picture.
So it's gone from bad to worse...
I re-flashed the file 3 times with now the same results. Even the old camera is crashing now.
It's ashamed I can't get this working because I really love CM10 otherwise. Apparently it's just my device though as others seem to not be having this problem.
I feel like a dolt for having to ask this, but where is CM10 for this device? I checked the get cm website, and the development forum here, and couldn't find anything aosp except for miui.
BTW, a broken camera is a hallmark of anything CM.

Here's the link for the Sprint model.
http://get.cm/?device=d2spr&type=stable
Just browse up a level for different models and "nightlys".
It's great that this forum covers so much but unfortunately it also makes it difficult, even using search, to find anything.

Sounds like something went wrong with the flash. Maybe the lib files were missing.

Could it help to flash one of the recent "Nightlys"?
I've never done that because it's taken me so long to get the layout of all my apps and pages the way I like them. I know there's some way to back that up but that's for another post I guess. Too new to the whole rooting and ROM flashing process...
I don't think I ever had problems with the CM10 default camera, try a clean flash and try again, and yes, the 4.2 camera does fc on the gallery, sadly its the only reason I can't see myself using anything CM based , I love it, but the default camera basically throws the whole ROM off for me

Yeah it only fc if the flash is on but that's a killer for me. Only hope is when cm 10.1 hits SG3.

I had the same problem.. sorta.. after snapping off a photo, the camera would just freeze, then warning / pop up stating 'gallery not responding'.. I ended up dumping and starting over. I'm using the CM10 build date of 11/13 and so far so good, camera and gallery working correctly now.

Looking for best ics or jb rom.

I know this is an old phone, I am going to turn them into gps systems, mainly of course they will be able to wifi. Download apps and such, but their main purpose will be for gps navigation.
So what is the best rom, one that everything works plus great battery life.
Phones won't have any cell service, just wifi, so cell phone service isn't important.
Nvm wrong phone lol

Stock rom is GB, so really not a good choice.
Best might be the wrong word, so what ics or jb romm is fully functional? I am looking at threads the ones I am looking at the camera doesn't work and so on.
Need camera to work, 4G not needed, but navigate without camera is useless.

Give cyanmobile a shot. It is gingerbread so everything works and to top it off it has many ics/jb features ported over. Plus it has a massive amount of settings to customize it to your liking.

Snapchat - why it isnt working good on custom rom?

Hey guys.
Why the hell app called "snapchat" is only works good at stock TFT?
I had problem at every custom rom with that app - like random crash,camera doesnt work or was recording etc
Why,just why?
Last month I was if a gingerbread rom, I used 2 ICS roms and both snapchat wasn't working. Maybe it's because of ICS...I don't know, I really want to know what is happening too
