Are you running a custom ROM? Most (all?) of the ics/jb ROMs have issues with third-party camera apps.
Aw yeh, that may be it, running cm9, well, that explains pretty much everything, haha, didnt think of it, well, thank you for the answer

With just bout any ICS rom (except maybe Virtuous Infinity, which is painfully slow right now), any app other than the stock camera app the rom comes with, will usually exhibit problems on the image (corruption etc). This is normally true of any '3rd party' apps on those roms.
The work around would be to snap the image with your main camera app, and then import it into instagram from the gallery.

Ok, so, Thanks to aread22 We have a 90% working cam, since we still dont have 720p and some effects ares still broke, but share and set as both work which was the original goal of this, and while we dont have 720p recording yet, im sure we will get there (eventually )
Heres that Cam:View attachment HTCCamera.apk
oh and btw, its from the 1.84 desire sense rom.
So things still to fix:
-720P
-Some effects (graphic intensive ones, probably gpu related)
(and i really hope some mod doesn't move this thread to q&a like my last thread, WHICH WAS NOT A Q&A THREAD)

and one of the people collaborating with us on this is cmylxgo along with g.lewarne,dandiest and a few others should be contributing too..
ok, anyways.. i have been pouring over smali files for days, trying different files in lib,bin and from looking at the log, my current guess is that the issue lies with the recording of audio when you hit record, which it runs into an error when it tries and crashes the apk.. i dont know if thats correct and im not sure what needs to be done to fix it, but thats why we have a dev thread for eh?
How about 720 recording ...is it just not possible cause I figured someone would have figured this out by now

well, that isnt something i believe that can be done at the moment, but i do believe it is possible and from what i have read its mostly a kernel issue, seeing as how wp7 can do it on our hardware and thats all software..
but before we even approach that here, i would like to get just basic recording working with the newer camcorder function..

What about A/V sync in Sense builds? I've been flashing and flashing, and have yet to find a truly working camcorder in this regard? Is this likely to be fixed?

well, who knows? maybe the different version of the camcorder could fix it? who knows until we get it working...
i think people are more likely to be using the camera so if we get a camera,it will be a big breakthrough and then the camcorder will probably come after you figured out the camera,keep up the hard work
Keep up the good work ! And this thread deserves to be in the stickies !
Finally, I'm glad to see that you've taken the initiative to get this moving. Can this also apply to the currently non-working camera that appears in the new Gingerbread Sense build by iMilka (and for other future builds)?

well, who knows, what i would like to see is people posting logs from alogcat at the time the try to run the camera (if it fc's as soon as you open it) or when they hit record (if it fc's there)
i dont know what the issue is with the gb camera (does it fc on open?)
but i wouldn't mind if this say, became the thread where we work out camera issues on all builds
and if enough people posted log snippets, just maybe we can find a commonality and that would head us in the right direction..
as it stands im figuring that the issue lies in the kernel or the libs, with the kernel looking more likely, im figuring it needs updated code to be compatible with the newer cameras and more then likely if we can get the newer camera working here, then the gb camera would also..
logcat
here i have attached the logcat. this is my first time. so im not sure if ok. i have started the logcat and then i click the camera then it did soft reset and reboot i close the logcat.

what camera apk is this and what rom?
and do this when you post these, look at the time on your watch or computer when you hit record and mention that. as long as its set the same as your device (your pc should have its clocked auto synced just like your phone so its times should match). this way there wont be a need to do a bunch of fishing for the error in the log.. oh, and set your log type to long under alogcat preferences..
edit: ok i see this is the gingerbread rom..
and wow lots of permission errors and a java failed binder transaction then all your services die..
and another odd, it seems to be connecting to htc database servers to check for updates..

Sooo.. for ex. I have frankinstein droid 1.5 rom, when i hit record it doesn't work, and i must reboot my hd2.

Hi guys
I originally asked this in the Q&A section a week ago, but I wasn't sure if it belong here in the apps section instead. Since I didn't get any replies, I'm thinking maybe I should have posted it here to begin with. I hope someone in this section might be able to help.
If I'm not supposed to put this in two areas, I apologize. I'm not too forum saavy; just looking for help for my issue.
Thanks a lot guys
--- Original post ---
Hi everyone! This is my first post here so I hope I'm doing this right. I'm not sure if this should be here in Q&A or in the App section but here goes.
I really love my Epic 4G. Up until a couple of weeks ago, I was still running Dk28 with midNIGHT rom 3.1. Then I finally switched over to the wonderful CM9 Beta1. I am loving it so far, but there's one thing that bothers me. The camera.
One of the things I used to use on the camera very frequently was the panorama/wide shot function. I really hate the sweep panorama of the ICS camera because with the crafts I make, it's just horrible and it's always distorted because sweeping and me don't get along. The camera that was on my leaked Froyo had the feature where I would click the first picture, and while moving to the side a green box would guide me and then automatically take the next shot when it lined up, then I'd move again and it would take the next shot. It would then put the images together for me.
I really need that feature back. Is there a way that I can install that camera app back onto my phone in addition to the updated ICS camera? I really like the smoothness and speed of the ICS camera for normal picture taking.
I can pull the camera.apk from my original install, but as I said, I don't want to overwrite the ICS one, which I fear because they have the same name and I don't know if renaming it will make the difference. I want both. If someone could guide me in getting both on my phone, that would be great. I'm sure there must be a way, but I don't know how to do it. I've read a lot on these boards so I figure if anyone knows how to help, the great minds here do!
I hope I've explained this ok. If I'm not clear, please let me know. Thanks much!
p.s. I've tried a number of camera apps from Play. I don't like the wide shot ones where it has a ghost image for you to line it up manually either, so please don't suggest that.
I'd love to see the old TW camera on CM9. The ported TW apps thread a couple posts down mentions this, but i haven't seen anyone post a successfully working version yet.
Hopefully someone who knows what they're doing can figure it out for us. *crosses fingers*
Wishlist? Anyone?
Lol....I was running the peoples rom last week and was wondering the opposite. If there was a way to put the ics camera on that tw rom. That's an awesome rom and has the tw camera (obviously), but maybe just flash that and try it for a while?
On a side note.....Not sure if its just me, or does does the ics camera take much better (normal) pictures, even when zooming in quite a bit? I've been wondering if something was done in ics to better utilize the camera hardware.

I find the ICS camera to be really nice for just normal pics. Definitely faster and does seem to be on the clearer side. But I'm really needing that old auto panorama/wide shot feature. (non sweeping motion or ghost line up).
Hi peep. I decided to start this thread because I don't wanna go OffTopic in the CM10 Quarx thread.
The fact is that I own a RedLense Defy, and since the first time I had it, I always tried to use Cyanogen. It was first the CM7 release, CM7.1, Cm7.2, now CM10 Quarx and Epsylon3... and in all the CMod ROM's I've had, they have the same trouble: filming quality is not good at all.
The only ROM that fit my necessities about the Defy's camera, is Walter's MS2GINGER. He did a great work there, and I've been using it for some months so far. But is a stock-based ROM (thats maybe the reason of why does it works there).
I would love to have a Cyanogen ROM with a nice filming quality. Even if its not 720p, at least a good wide 480p image. The first thing I've obviously tried is moving libraries from the "HD" zip to CM, the media XML, and some build.prop configs, but nothing happened (bootloop). So I ended thinking: its imposible to use those on CM.
So did someone try to improve filming in CyanoGen? Do anyone of you know a way to make it work, or the reason of why is it impossible on Cyanogen?
Thanks.

It means that it is POSSIBLE, I guess. :victory: And I totally think so, I don't believe a locked bootloader can make it all imposible for those with an advanced knowledge on linux and Android development.
But isn't any developer actually focused on the camera here? I searched on the forum but didn't found anything. I mean yeah, they are all fighting with the bootloader, but not to make a better camera so far.

Sorry, I re-read the post and realized that it was only related to opengl stuff... it was not a generic workaround for kernel modules.
We still need the bootloader unlock

Ok I guess I'll have to say bye to a CyanoGen MOD with a proper camcorder. Stock's the choice for me.
Ok, i already anticipate replies based on "use the damn search", ...please do us all a favor and don't clutter the thread with that kind of posts, try to max your posts number somewhere else :silly:
Anyhow, atm i have tried to install few JB roms on my HTC Desire GSM, the latest i have installed is JellyNow(btw: battery friendly), but still the same problems remain, the damn camera works but not so stable, often results in soft restart and when watching video as well(sometimes)
Is there a stable JB rom with camera and video working?
Please reply with posts where you can speak from your own experience, everything else is without arguments.

Simple answer is NO.
There are Nikez and VJ's CM10.1, but the camera and video are choppy and tearing.

yup, i have stumbled upon this one a week or two ago, but i have read somewhere that its development has come to STOP, apparently lack of developers in their team....i am not sure if this is correct information.
Although i might give it a go, to see how it goes...all i need is daily driver, i am not that active user, because JellyNow can hold 2days, but it isn't usable any more, sometimes i cant answer a phone-call, because when ringing screen doesn't respond as it should, just showing incoming call, then it needs up to 5sec to start reacting....wierd.
Anyhow i am still in a hunt for a fine balanced rom....the problem is i am now addicted to JB stuff, beacuse it almost has it all i need within OS, so need for installing additional apps is minimum.
Tnx
I'm using jelly time and the camera and video work perfectly fine...I've been using this ROM for a good 3 months now...I will just add though that for some reason I can't find the camera now to use it lol but I think I disabled it cuz I never use it and would always accidentally open it....
I'm using jelly time R29,
I hope this helps you!

ROFLMAO..
Hi guys.. I finally installed jellybean on the phone, but there was some issues regarding some crucial(for me) functionalities of the phone;
Mainly the camera, It takes pictures with the green thing of course (I don't mind this one), It shoots videos with focusing and all, but it doesn't really shoot 30fps (I tried apps like lg camera and camera ics but it's all the same). There was some talk here about changing some system configuration file to make the camera shoot in 26fps, but that doesn't seem to be making any sense... Now the second thing is third party apps that use the camera, as for example camscanner that has some weird issues inside of it.. I open the program, I switch to batch mode(this one takes a lot of pictures), I take the first image which goes normally but after that all I see is what I had taken, I can take new images, but there is no preview(and no focusing). Notice that this app worked in gb, and had no problems, And that the whole range of apps that shoot multiple images has the same problem (handy scanner for example) . So did any one get around those issues... I heard that CM9 is better so can anyone confirm if camscanner is working there (the batch mode), Or maybe if someone is using a different one that doesn't have those issues ; These are really some serious drawbacks to the available custom roms, So I think they should have been at least mentioned.
Thanks in advance !
Dude you should really read what Arco said about the SGW camera in CM before claiming it´s not working that well like in GB. It´s a dirty hack to make it work at all so it will also not work well with all the camera apps out there. In CM9 its working a bit better than in CM10 but regarding smoothness and compability with other apps it´s about the same. So you are not telling us something new and everyone who is using CM9 or CM10 is also aware of this.
So if this is a big issue for you, flash back to GB and use this instead.

Thanks for the response, I might do that ... As for now can someone confirm that camscanner is not working on CM9 as well ?
I also have the same problem with the app above in camera jb+ (Takes the first picture, freezes), and I heard that some people are using it flawlessly... So please what rom are you using ?

Thanks for the response. I myself noticed that the camera even in CM10 is faster than stock, except for some issues... However someone just confirmed to me that the issue that I'm talking about here is present in cm9 too, so it seems that the camera is the same in all avaiable cyanogenmods for this phones !
