I just tried it on my stock rom and sure enough, it won't work. Silly isn't it.
Anyway, just use another camera app. LG Camera app worked for me no problem.

voice issue

well i've tried cm10.aokp and miui. and seems i cant record anything using either the stock app or a download and if i do manage to its seems its really low or has a bunch of static. also in arket when i try to search for an app using my voice it just acts as if i didnt say anything or its not receiving what im saying if anything at all. i was wondering if this is just me or can anyone else confirm this. i had one other person confirm this on miui but on aokp and cm10 they just say those bugs were fixed weeks ago. any help is greatly appreciated
nvm it seems i have to put my face right next to the top mic like literally and scream at it on those roms for it to pick up anything. which is odd because stock does at a normal distance >.>

when i said stock apps i was correct since those apps are stock to those roms >.> and the other time i said that the aosp roms did work as well as stock did a.k.a tw. so both times i said stock were the correct usage in its own case.

[Q] Phone locking immed after call

Just as the title says. Whenever I hang up a call, the phone will go dim for about 10 seconds, then lock. It's irritating if i have to make another call right away. How do i get it to just not do anything after a call?
If you want us to help you a few more info would be appreciate. Are you rooted or not? If you're rooted are you on stock ROM? If not on stock which ROM are you using? Are you using a custom kernel.? If so ,are you undervolted, over clocked, under clock, do you have a screen off profile?

No root. 100% stock. Screen off profile? I've messed with the display settings. I can get it to change somewhat. I can get it to go to a swipe to unlock screen instead of my pattern lock screen. But can't figure out how to get it to just do nothing after a call.
HTH.

Hmmm..Mine goes right back to the home screen. But Im not stock so that may make a difference. You can try this

Not really strange, when your taking a call and you want to send that person a picture of something you see in a shop, etc etc..
Are you on stock rom because after googling the problem it seems to be a touchwiz limitation.
Would like to hear from others.

Extra Volume button

I just noticed that this button does not work
Once I reboot phone, it starts to work... but only for one call. After that call, it does not work again.
Anyone have this problem? know how to fix this?
Tried to disable the button and re-enable... does not affect it. Still same problem.
Thank you.
it runs JB 4.1.2

There's a button "volume increase" that appears during a call. What's the confusion? Need to read the TOPIC not only the post.
It gets disabled when you use Bluetooth, just fyi.

thanks for attaching the picture...
I do not use Blue Tooth, thus it is always off.
Try unchecking, rebooting, then re-checking the option shown under Phone settings.
Maybe Rom then? I'm sure you're on Stock kernel. Mine never was disabled!

I have no idea. It is a T-Mobile (USA) phone... I am not that advanced with stuff like this when it comes to phones.
For T-Mobile, follow the link and basically follow directions for unrooting. It will load stock everything for you. File other directions if you want to root afterwards.

Thanks, but won't it void my warranty? I tried it with another phone, and right after that when I tried to get updates, it said that my phone is not eligible for updates anymore.

Returning to stock will put your phone back in warranty state. Just don't root and you'll be fine.

Nice camera but it won't focus until we get a proper fix. The script should work though.

Yeah, considering it's CM based I think Android 4.2.2 and above may be the only way to go, even the WIP 4.3 code might be necessary for some functions. :crying:
I love this camera, But the focus issue still remains.
I appreciate you trying to find a fix for us!

I believe this is something that can be fixed, but its gonna be quite a *****. The International LGOG's camera works on AOSP perfectly, and they have 13mp as well. I really wonder whats so different from them, and why this is such an issue for us x_x

Interesting, I wish I could help. I only know how to flash roms :/ i'm a noob hehe
But i'll be more than glad to help/test anything that can help improve our devices.
If u look at this screen shot it says the focus area is 0,0,0,0. Shouldn't it be different like set to a certain amount other then zero...

Also the metering area is all zeros also ....

This is what Google says about the focus and metering area ....

Could it be the camera no longer calls back to the focus parameters ?

That's what someone in the International forums said. Its possible

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

Could this help?
If you look at the script that allows auto focus to work currently on AOSP roms, it shows that you need to kill the mm-qcamera-daemon process first before opening the camera app (any app that uses camera). It seems that the process doesn't end when camera app is exited and that may be the problem.
you know I wonder if you were to set the kill all process upon exit in developer options if that would kill that process allowing the Camera to fully restart

Lol, idk haven't tried just threw out there what popped into mind
I am no expert on the autofocus problem, but I set the "don't keep activities" option in Developer Options and opened and closed the camera at least 15 times. I don't see any focus problem.
