[CWM] Camera Fixer for cm9, aokp & cm10 - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey guys,
With the recent spring up of roms I thought I would include a camera fixer if you are having problems connecting to the sgs3 camera.
Simply flash the following file in CWM.
Thanks to id10terrordfw for the fix

Nice! Thanks a lot

Camera will still freeze on click to focus after 3 times of auto focusing quickly... When I force close the camera it can be not reconnect to camera until reboot.
This is true after installing this patch as well

Yes, this will happen even with the fix.

So what exactly does this fix... my camera worked the same way before as it did after the fix... Try to push to focus 3 times and it freezes... camera fc's then i can't connect to it till reboot. this is exact scenario as before the fix...
Just curious...

(Unless on task's AOKP) It allows the camera to even function. CM9 and 10 do not work without this at all. You get the "Can't connect to Camera" error upon opening it. Until a permanent fix is found, this at least lets you use the cameras on the GS3 on AOSP derived ROM's. I believe task650 incorporated this into his later builds.

got it... thanks

Maybe this only works for one of the camera types (I heard there are a few) cuz I'm running cm-10-20120718-UNOFFICIAL-d2att rom, and I still get the cannot connect after installing this in CWM. It seemed to install fine...
Anyone else having this problem?

I tried flashing this on the cm9 rom for my lg optimus net which has same problem of camera not connecting. But it was no use! Any suggedtions on how to fix it??

Every camera fix I've installed on cm10 7/20 has caused me to lose access to all gapps, both via wifi and mobile data.

I have updated to the latest release of CM10 (7-20) after confirming that the ROM flash did not have a working camera, and it did not (Could not connect to gallery after first two pics taken) rebooted, cleared data and cached (not that I needed to after a clean flash...but just to rule out any missing variables) got it to work again then started messing with the settings and locked up the camera. Then the next time I opened the camera I got the could not connect error. So I flashed the CWM fix and same issue, after 2-3 pics could not connect error. So I pulled the files and manually placed the in the System>Camera data folder replacing the other files with Root Explorer and set permissions. So far no green screen or problems seen thus far.

edit edit: looks like pressing too much autofocus derped it again aww man .. lol

4.2 Camera fully working!

I've gotten it to fully work on my phone. I started from scratch. Factory reset, flash ROM, install everything you want or need, except leave the gapps files off. Rebooted my phone and installed the vending.3.9.16.apk. No problems with any of it yet.
I take that back. Having FC's after opening and closing both of the a few times. Don't know what exactly it is with the gapps that's effecting it but as long as I leave it out it works perfect.
I have CM10 installed and everything thing works on this camera except the regular camera function will freeze after first shot, unless you manual focus first.

I keep it installed but i just use stock camera instead. The new features all work fine, plus the new gallery is pretty slick. There will be a fix for this problem soon I am sure.

I could not get a handle on whats going on with it. Sometimes it snaps on, other times it takes forever or not at all. It's really weird. Right now I'm tethered over wifi so it's working.

Known current issue with the rom. It doesn't handle the /0 folder properly. I just formatted my sdcard to fix the issue, then pulled my data back over.
This is only the 2nd public build for GNex that China has made, so there are gonna be bugs.

init.d support, fixed GPS, fixed TCDMA-64, some kernel optimizations, WAY more stock icons, and weather enabled lockscreen (still not perfect on that,) hosts file patched to block ads, AdFree app is installed (can't get it from Play Store anymore.)
Next build should have a lot more though.

I tried it but no WiFi killed it for me. Probably will kill it for everyone else too. Aside from that, I agree it's a good port.

Haven't touched CM10.1 nightly ROMs for a while. But the LED Notification stopped working, stayed on an older version of CM10.1 nightly.
Gonna try that when I get home. Also PA made it to this device. Also the Jedi mind trick Roms. So many options. Wow head's spinning.
Leaning towards CM10.1 though.
No signal, can't play video
I was using CM10.0. Updated CM10.1 with corresponding gapp.
-Can't register on cellular network anymore. Can't set AWS frequency in the factory testing mode.
-All of my Video apps start legging, play videos for a little while and quit after about a minute, say video format not supported. Even though the video is mp4 format and it was playing it before quitting.
How should fix it? Flash kernel? Which kernel should I use?

I tried to resist flashing this ROM but had to give in to temptation. Said to myself no more flashing when I got into boot issues with JMTJB6. Odin flashed stock and left it unrooted! Was happy...but then temptation. Happy I did it, rock solid, butter smooth, doesn't seem to have any lag.

Thanks that did the trick. I was going mad at why the LED notifications stopped working.
Also still on the non-touch recovery, 5.0.26 the one that needs the Darkmod scripts to wipe cache and do full installs.
Also had to turn sensor on/off before it actually worked. Read that from another post from someone that helped me.
Thanks again dude.

Flash video was not smooth for me. Even with latest Adobe update. But no MHL to TV support was the deal killer. Other than that it was fine.

Are you using a custom kernel? And did you wait the 10 minutes after the flash?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
No custom kernel. Flashed it days ago...reboot occurred today...Yes I did wait the 10 minutes after initial flash.
Is this a known problem? Would a custom kernel like uber kernel be more stable? I really like this ROM so far as is.

Leaked 4.3 camera works perfect with our device ibcluding PHOTOSPHERE

Should work on all 4.0+ aosp ROMs. Just delete/rename gallary2.apk in system/apps then install the apk like normal
I'm posting this because I'm running it right now with zero issues on thddudes beanstalk rom

But when it uses 25% of your battery overnight there should be something wrong. I tried it myself. Photosphere is not worth the no deep sleep new feature, lol.

I tried this running CM 10.1 and it seemed a little laggy for a while. Also, the quick settings did not match up. i.e. I would try and select one scene mode and it would actually pick another. If it was more stable I would use it. I prefer this new quick settings menu over the radial menu
Works well on stock Rom too. I also have problems with settings not matching up.

Meh... It's ok. I still prefer the MIUI camera, even if I don't have front camera support with it. IMHO, it's better than CameraZoom as well.

I am on AOKP and this only half works. It does do photosphere, but it only does 1 picture then it is fuzzy thereafter and the video is horrible and not usable. Does anyone have a .zip to flash back to stock camera and gallery? blah. i did a backup before but it was a a couple weeks ago and I am just not getting around to trying the camera.

This works great. It's how I restored my camera
meh
4.3 camera works fine on LG Optimus G F180k. I now have two Camera apps and two Galleries. The only flaw I encountered so far is the picture size. It only goes 8MP maxed and my camera supports 13MP so I only use it for PhotoSphere. The PhotoSphere works well, so far, haven't tried it outdoors yet. The new gallery app is a step up from the stock I had.
I froze the stock gallery and use the gallery app that came with the 4.3 camera. I didn't freeze or uninstalled the stock camera. I'll probably use'em both.
My theory here, maybe this works well with my phone because it first came out on Nexus 4, which is also a LG device and Optimus G and Nexus 4 almost have the same hardware with just a lil' variations like the camera. (N4 with 8mp while LGOG with 13mp, some models have 8mp too just like the N4)
and another thing, the 4.3 camera creates another directory inside DCIM folder. So the two cameras have two different folders inside DCIM.

Would you mind sharing the miui camera that you are using. I've tried pulling the apk files from miui ROMs but I always get a FC. It would make my miui v5 that much more complete.

What I'm really wanting to get my hands on now after seeing some previews, is the new focal camera from CM.

It is doing this with CM10 and Task's AOKP.
