Android Camera 4.2 Freeze - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey guys, I can't reply to the actual thread due to the fact that I have less than 10 post. Even though I've been a member since 2007 lol. Anyway just an observation, With the new Android Camera 4.2.zip from androidcentral I can do the photo sphere just fine, front facing camera works just fine, recording video front front camera and rear camera work fine but if I take a picture with rear camera it will snap the photo and lock up. I am running CM10 with the nightly from last night (Nov 2, 2010) is the date on it.

Same here. On mine It was working for a while. Now, I can take one photo and then the camera freezes. Shortly before that happened I started seeing an error saying something about not being able to access the camera when I tried to run it. It was working for a while, now it's not. Tried rebooting a couple times. Tried using Titanium Backup Pro to "Freeze" the other camera/gallery apps. Did not seem to help.
I'm running: Galaxy S3 T999 (T-Mobile) with AOKP Jelly Bean Milestone 1.

Having similar problems on AOKP. It's still buggy so I would just re-flash rom and re-install google gallery to get old camera+gallery back. 4.2 will release to AOSP in about 10 days so just sit tight

Same problem here, it seems that it works for me if i disable the flash-led, but freeze with it or when it's set on "auto" (and a dark place)
PS. I'm running Galaxy S3 with Omega 31 with siyah kernel.

Were are you guys downloading it at?

here you are sir, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965895

i got same problem on rooted stock

well
a reboot fixes it it appears that flash brakes it, so no flash for now

Workaround for this:
Change camera mode from Auto to any other mode. (Here I chose Active).
If you want Auto mode, make sure you tap screen first to focus the camera.

Same issue for me. I'm running Galaxy S3 with Omega 34 srock kernel. It freezes only when using flash.

This is a known issue. The issue being the camera is designed for 4.2 and thus won't work properly on 4.1. Unfortunately, there's really nothing that can be done (aside from the workarounds already mentioned), believe me I've looked. Until we're on 4.2 (CM10.1, etc) the 4.2 camera just won't be fully functional.

working now
Guys, it works
just found an amazing workaround. when you need to use the flash - long press the shutter button. it will use the flash to focus, only when it shuts down the flash, release the press.

I have no issues using the 4.2 camera. I'm on stock jelly bean. Photosphere works and it doesn't freeze. *shrug* I googled 4.2Camera_t04.zip. works great.

So you can take pictures in "Auto" mode without tapping the screen first and it doesn't crash? If so, you're the first person I've seen that doesn't have that problem.

Ya...I use it all the time. Only thing I dont like is it doesnt have the picture preview in the camera app anymore. Oh well.

didnt know if anyone wanted it.
it opens takes photos does panoramic but photo sphere doesnt work says phones not supported it installed as a downloaded app so you have it and stock im using rooted stock v3
It's POS in comparison to our TW camera. I tried it (from different source). Sphere works but there is no viewer for it so it has to be uploaded to G+ and viewed on the computer.
Otherwise it lacking so many features it's almost unusable.
Takes pictures but that's about it.
yea the panoramic and sphere feature is the only thing cool about it.
Try the one mentioned by ramjet in this post. I believe it has been patched to remove the device check. I tried it on my EVO 3D and it worked. The sperical view in the gallery works just as intended.

It works great, no FC for me.
what specific version did you succeed in trying on the sprint note 2? does it install ALONGSIDE stock camera and gallery like it does on my S3 ?
the tw camera is pretty dope is 4.2 cam better ?
the 4.2 camera is total CRAP (compared to the S3/N2 camera). but you want it. because photo sphere is "dope" as you say I run them concurrently on my S3 I hope to do the same on my new N2.

[Q] Problem with front-facing camera recording

Hi there,
I'm having some issues with my front facing camera and recording. I am running CM10.1 (RC5) on my SGH-T999 and for some reason, every THIRD recording from my front facing camera freezes my phone and forces a reboot.
This is very irritating when using apps like Snapchat or the new Instagram video feature. The Instagram feature especially, because it is a "tap and hold to record," and on the third tap/release it forces a reboot on my phone.
My friend seems to have this issue as well on his Verizon S3 (running CM10). However, I've tried to Google a solution for months now but have yet to find a working one. I just recently decided I wanted to fix this problem because the new Instagram feature isn't quite as fun with this issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! This is also my first thread on the subject so if I am missing any vital information that could be helpful, please inform me!
EDIT: I should add that the camera works fine when on stock ROM. However, I've really grown attached to CM10.1 and am hoping I can fix it without reverting.

The problem isnt the camera or the ROM, its the app. The new update for Instagram freeze everyone cameras. But strangely you added Snapchat, this app running fine on CM10.1 4.2.2 for me. Have you tried to uninstall the camera and flash an other one ? Go see this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1966426

I will try update now!
It is any app involving the camera, even the camera app itself. I can record perfectly fine for the first two recordings, but when I try to save the third recording via any app (Snapchat, Instagram, basic camera app) it forces a reboot.
For example, on first recording I can record a 30 second clip; on the second, I can record a 3 minute clip. However, for the third, no matter how long the duration of the previous recordings, it will always crash.
This is only on the front-facing camera, though.
Again, I'll go ahead and try the link you sent me and come back with updates; thanks!
It's been happening forever. Just like when you go into the language & input area, and do something, press back, force close. Every time.
Honestly, the CM camera is pretty lacking (all of the CM apps are). If it's an issue for you, there are other ones on the market. Oh wait... no there isn't. Plenty of camera apps, no video apps.

Aw man, so there's no fix to this? Would you be able to recommend any other custom ROMs similar to CM that have a working front-facing camera? I know it is a rather juvenile reason to switch ROMs, but all my friends are doing front-faced recordings via Instagram and Snapchat and I'd love to join the fun.

I don't think it's a juvenile reason at all. Actually, I think it's pretty incredible that it hasn't been fixed yet. The camera is arguably the second most important part of the phone. I'm sure it will be fixed in time, but it's just a reminder that we are nowhere near 10.1 stable yet. They may think so, but I beg to differ. I'm reminded of when 10.1 was brand new. Phone calls wouldn't work half of the time. Some people are still having occasional issues (me included).
Unfortunately for you, most AOSP ROMs are based on the CM code. Looks like it's either live with it, or use a TW ROM.

I used Wicked for a time, but the I think the dev is cheating on us with other devices
Had just commented on this in the cm thread... Damn that sucks. Having the same issues. My main camera can capture pictures in a third party app but as soon as I switch to ffc I crash into a hard reboot. Don't know if that transfers over to skype but man that's a bummer. I know that Google hangouts uses the native cm camera so that works but instagram, fb, and even snapchat sometimes (at least for me) will frag some times.
I missed you aero! Haven't seen you over in cm land but then, as you posted earlier, you got off the nightly train for a while. Miss your knowledge and expertise

The problem occurs on all Rom except those based on TouchWiz.
Every third recording with front facing camera on any apps freezes the phone and forces a reboot.
It is strange that almost nobody talks about this problem.

Oh Shoot. My bad. I keep forgetting it all the time.
Are you using the Social Media apps to do the video Recording ? If yes, can you follow the bellow steps ?
1. Wipe Data for all the social apps you can possibly use to do Video Record.
2. Go to Recovery, wipe Dalvik + Cache Reboot.
3. Do not open any of the social Media app.Use the regular Camera app. Do the 3 video recordings and report back.

Seeing as this thread came back alive, does this also matter with audio recording? Using viber and what's app you can make wifi calls and leave voice sms respectively, but every time I try to do so the audio sounds like I'm 10 underwater with Optimus prime talking

Camera problems?

Hey everyone. I am an Optimus G user, but coming from Sprint's side of the land. I know well enough that we have camera problems (no auto focus) on AOSP roms (camera is great on stock ROMs), but I was wondering if you guys had any issues with camera on your AOSP builds? Maybe some of us could collab with devs here and see what we can do. Our AOSP ROMs would literally be perfect (and a LOT would be officially supported) once the camera issue gets out of the way. I heard that we borrow a lot of custom code from the Nexus 4, which is why our camera is so screwed up, but I also heard the Sprint and International Optimus G's have the same 13mp camera, so here's to hoping for something. Thanks to anybody who takes out the time to look at this and respond!

Official cm works great, no camera issues (But pictures still ****ty though), i think thats the reason of no responses.
On aosp, auto focus stops working when you exit camera app for 1st time. And starting to work if you wipe camera, till next exit.
Probably on exit its sending invalid lense parking settings to camera, causng it to hang. Or something like that

[Q] Xperia S photo focus issue?!?!

Hi guys...
There's one stupid and annoying issue that happens in my Sony Xperia S when taking photos!
I don't know if it's global, but i don't think so, because i didn't see anyone else claiming about it.
When i'm taking photos with close focus (like 20cm distance), i press camera button to focus and it shows green, but the image is a little blured, and i press the button all the way down to take the photo even with the blured image, and then the pre-visualisation of image is well focused...
I have already tried to focus again like 20cm distance, and then move the phone so the image gets not blured, like with excellent focus, then i take the photo, and it gets with really bad focus... -_-
I have already tried different camera mods, like advanced stock camera, cybershot mod, all the same.
Any one with same issue? Any way to fix it?
you can fix with root
you need to edit build prop though
Ill paste some things for you to put in your build prop later

I have centered metering, ISO auto, auto-focus i have already tried single, multi and touch focus.

Taking photos with flash at night, preview is really fast and i can't see if it do the same like without flash...
I have to try to record with my brother's Honamy, maybe it's visible while recording that way, since i can't capture screen while taking photos...
The worst problem is when i try to take macro photos or taking photos with super macro lens. Being really hand-stable isn't enough. I have to get used to this focus issue :/

[APP] OnePlus ONE CAMERA Ported/Modded (CyanogenMod 11 & 12)

CONFIRMED WORKING ON CM 11 & 12​
Hello S3'ers
Story behind thread: I recently got my ONEPLUS ONE device. Very excited and lured to root and unlock the beast i headed unstoppably to the OnePlus Official Forum and while going through some of the treads and posts i just happened to come across an app, "CameraNextV5" and threfore downloaded it. Then, had a thought (heavenly, i must say, as unintentional it was) of trying it on my other device, happening to be our own S3 (i9300), and surprisingly it worked. Now, sharing it with y'all friends here.
Alright then, after that, not so interesting story being said... LETS GET TO THE APP
NOTE: Am not the developer/modder/owner of this app in any way. It was solely the hardwork of abhi08638 for the ONEPLUS ONE , which can be found HERE​
Now, my little description of the app:​
WORKING:
1. Filters like posterize, mono, sepia etc all work flawlessly
2. Video recording is great
3. Autofocus is great
4. Settings are all effective
Note: There are some "Experimental Settings" bundled in the Settings tab, but i haven't tested them personally. May be will do later or help yourself and lemme know to update here.
NOT WORKING/ERROR:
1. Front Camera
2. Slow Motion rec (NOT INCLUDED actually)
ISSUES/PROBLEMS:
1. When activating front-camera, the app crashes with a dialog, "Can't connect to camera".
After this you wont be able to start the camera again and the dialog is persistent.
2. When trying to activate the Panorama/Photo-sphere the app crashes with the same dialog above.
Solution: None till now, only full-reboot helps. Sometimes, i personally had to Uninstall it and Re-install to continue using.
Note: 1. I advice you guys dont go with those two options (Front camera & Panorama) in this app.​ 2. There's a flashable zip available but, i suggest installing the app just as any other would be better & easy.​

Tha's all mates.
Happy clicks then...!!! :good:
SCREENSHOTS: IN THE ATTACHMENT. VERY VERY DETAILED. :cyclops:​
Please thank the developer for his awesome work. I linked his OnePlus One thread up there in the intro, but, just if you missed it.​THANK abhi08638 VISITING HERE :good:​
Edit: I just happened to know that the developer "abhi08638" updated the version to V6. Will test later, you guys can check urself also, link is the same provided above.
Do not flash the zip from my thread because it contains OnePlus one specific files and you will most likely be stuck in a bootloop

Glad you visited :good:
I did mention that in the last "NOTE" as a suggestion though.
Very good work here! The app works perfectly, on my device, the front camera also works. Sometimes the different filters will be stuck and nothing will change, but for me, that isn't a real problem! So I will be using this camera as default

Quite a Rom-skipper you seem to be...
installed on i9300 cm12 unofficial weekly 6 and everything worked except for panorama.
copied libjni_mosaic.so from the V16A zip to system/lib and then panorama started working but regular camera froze when taking a photo.
tried some stuff, ended up installing the stock cameraNext v2 from somewhere while also keeping that libjni_mosaic.so file in system/lib and got the camera working again as well as panorama
no idea if that file is needed for panorama to work but now that it's working i'm not gonna touch it...
would be nice if the modded version worked for me as well but this is still awesome
thx
Camera app works for me S3 neo(i9301i) with BlissPop 1.9 except panorama.Quality of the pics and video is perfect.It would be awesome if someone can fix panorama.
Edit:Fix put libjni_mosaic.so in /system/lib
Nice camera app thanks a lot for all

hdr function is missing out...any ideas to gain back hdr function?
Thank you so much ! I'm happy now with no errors and I use rarely front cam and "never" used panorama so It's all good for me.
