Camera keeps backing out - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I recently master reset my phone and now for some reason my camera keeps backing out when I'm taking pictures, it doesn't do it all the time but sometimes it does it over and over again. I clear defaults on camera but still having random issues. It does not Force close, it just backs out. Anyone else Having any issues?

I seem to have exactly the same issue. I am rooted and use a stock kernel but it used to do it also when I was not rooted.

But what build are you on? Are you rooted? Did you update? If so how? (Ota, Odin, cwm, twrp)
Did you try factory reset again?

You can try this if u want.
In the dialer enter this code:
*#34971539#
The camera firmware menu will open. Press the first button Cam Phone fw check
If the cam fw is different from phone fw you can then press Phone to Cam fw Write
This will update your cameras fw to current.
May or may not fix your problem, but could be worth trying.

Handwriting recognition problem

yeah it's supposed to be there. It's either the rom you're using or some kind of mod you flashed (if any) that removed it. Try factory resetting it or installing another rom.

The only problem with that(and any one that I have used) is that the flash does not work. If FC's when the flash goes off.
I have yet to find a version that has a working flash.

What Rom are you using? You are the first person I have seen that say the flash works.
I have been thru many roms, even flashing back to stock and thus unrooting, then rerooting and none of the versions I have tried (3. or 4, including the one here) have a working flash.

In that last photo, you have the flash turned off(you can tell by the empty circle on the right). In that case it will work great. Don't mistake the light coming on in that case as the flash. The lighr you see is used to focus only.
Force the flash to be on or set to auto and take a shot in a dark room. When the flash tries to go off it will force close the gallery.

So, no Force Closure but your flash didn't work as intended right? I assume we should see "something" with flash, unless you were in a field with nothing to reflect the flash.

Sorry, just getting back to this. As mentioned above, if that is the picture then it doesn't look like your flash went off. I'd expect to see at least the flash in the photo.

Ic what u talking about didnt notice cause pictures are I take usually no flash.I use other camea app usually and use the 4.2 gallery to edit pictures and stuff.

Did you remove any of the stock apps before updating?
No the only thing I did was remove the camera shutter sound and adfree
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
you have to go back & edit the file you did and reinstate the shutter sound...happened to me too
just change it back to a "1" & it'll go thru
Dam I deleted the file when I did it. Could you possibly upload it for me?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
oh, you actually deleted something? I say just use LGNPST to V9, then go to JB...safest
You don't lose your data (most times) w/ LGNPST, but it can happen, so make a backup of anything you want to keep
Ok I tried all day and couldn't get it to work. It wouldn't allow me to select a dll everything's grayed out, so I downloaded a system dump file and replaced the camera file rebooted still no luck says there's no update and says I'm still on zv8
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
you have to be in download mode to select a dll file and etc
Ahh alright thanks directions didn't say go into download mode till after I select the dll

If you run into anymore issues with LGNPST you can PM me or jump on IRC and ask around there.

gps nav. not working

Rooted my lg and gps nav app will not find location and start navigation. Google Maps does locate me just fine. Anyone have an apk so i can try reinstalling or know of a way to get it working? I have a good 3g connection so i know it's not that.
Did you just root it? Did you install a ROM? Need more info to solve the issue...

Sorry bout that, just rooted it, haven't put a new rom on. it yet
Rooting shouldn't affect any apps. You can try clearing app data's in Maps and Nav. Maybe even turn on WiFi to help it find location faster.

ZV9 or ZVB? Have you tried a reboot? Or cleared data/cache and force close app?

Hold the power button down until it powers down to simulate a battery pull.

Vol Down quit working ?

My vol down won't work anymore..? I'm on the carbon ROM.. Twrp .. And it doesn't work when I try download mode either
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
Does it work from the black screen and text menu. This is reached by turning off your phone then once your phone is off do this. hold vol up and the power button. The second you see the lg logo let go of both buttons. It should go into the menu i am talking of. If so press vol down two times then press the power button and wait 15 seconds. The phone should reboot let it do its thing. If you boot into twrp the button works and you have another problem. If the phone just turns off then its that button.

Its the other problem, it is the button, but ive never had water damage or drops

I recommend taking it back to complete stock condition. Using the kdz method. The one that sprint repair techs use? And return it for another. You'll still be in Warranty for hardware defects.

You could flash stock zvc, or zvb and let it update. Then in FreeGee restore to stock. Only option I can think of

Update? Or bin? Links to both are in the root guide.
Edit. That would be for LGNPST which won't work for you. Oops
There is an odexed stock zvb rom in Devolopement. I think from TheShadow1.
Edit 2. Not a good night for me I guess. The zvb ROM is also linked in the root guide. Odex and deodex
