[Q] 4.2 gallery works but not camera - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Since this is my first time posting I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that has helped make this forum as good as it is, I have learned so much about my phone from here.
Now my issue at hand is that my camera on my GSM galaxy nexus does not work, since upgrading to jelly bean 4.2 I can't seem to get it to work, but my gallery works just fine, now I have tried multiple Roms, and wiped my phone many times, have also tried with twrp and cwm neither of which work, I have also searched every where on the internet to no avail, is there anyone with any insight as to how I can fix this?

You changed ROMs but did you change GAPPS?

I thought I have tried a few different ones, I guess I am not really sure I know I have tried just the camera and gallery zip from more than one place, and I am running the cataclysm rom which doesn't say you need GAPPS sperate

Just wanted to clarify I just tried installing 4.2 GAPPS and it's still doing the same thing any other ideas

POssible finding for Force close fix for S voice...plz read

*NOTE PLZ READ FIRST not responsible, your actions are your own*
Did a little digging and found this from the GS2 9100 Section (not For our t989 model)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679856
claimed to fix force close for S voice on GS2 9100
...any dev figure out how to port this over to t989 or if this can even work on ours?
thanks
S voice already runs perfectly using the zip in our theMes and apps section. You just have to use a Samsung ROM for full functionality.cm9 doesn't have all the Samsung apps so you will get force closes related to that issue

I installed SVoice on the stock ICS ROM for the T989 and the network errors kept occurring until I changed build.prop. Even after I changed that however, SVoice just kept FCing. Finally gave up on it and deleted it.
I have it working great on tdj latest tmo ics and thats with touch of color theme on top. Are you flashing zip or just trying to install apk?

I installed the zip via cwm, I removed .apks from /system/app to make room for 30MB voicetalk.apk, I set permissions, I changed owners, I re-installed via root explorer, I rebooted, and was still getting FCs. I was also getting constant network errors until I edited my build.prop to mimic the s3, but I was never able to stop the FCs.
I didn't change anything with root explorer. Just flashed and darkside cache wipe and rebooted. Voila..MAGIC!!(future voice)

Jelly bean issue with files

ever since i've flashed jelly bean, i had an issue with my files..
for example, my photos don't show up in the gallery app,
i cant access any of my music regardless of which music player i use..
however, if i use solid explorer then i can view everything just fine.
i have searched about this but couldn't find a good explanation.. please help
Good luck, nobody yet seems to know the reason or a fix to this problem, myself I reverted to an ICS nandroid for now. Theres a couple of threads floating around in this same forum related to this issue. Look for sd card problem or something like that.

do you know if this happens for everyone on jelly bean? regardless of whether they flashed a custom jb rom or get the official ota?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
All I know is mileage seems to vary.
Many users (myself included) have absolutely no problems with JellyBean.
I haven't even tried any AOSP releases yet...I only ran the OTAleak that was converted for Toro users...still no problems.
I tried the I/O leak, Bixie's first version and the latest. Everytime had the same result... missing media. -___-
The only time I got some media to show in the galery was after fixing permissions in CWR and even then most of the media didn't show up

just wondering.. if you use any type of file manager/viewer, is your sdcard named "sdcard0"?
hope that makes sense.
Same prob...
I am facing the same problem.. Over all, my S3 has slowed down after this JB update.. Buttons got sticky and response time of device has increased .. Is there any fix.. Pls help..

[Q] [HELP]Can't use 8MP camera (maxed at 3mp)

I am running the CM10-20121018-NIGHTLY. I noticed once I flashed this rom with the newest gapps, now my camera is maxed out at 3mp instead of 8.
I searched around and read through the forum for the CM10 rom on the development forum. I am not allowed to post there yet i guess, but from what I gathered other people are having this issue too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924561&highlight=3mp+8mp+camera&page=93
Its unclear what they mean by "you can have 8mp camera, or 3mp and picasa sync". I would much rather have the 8mp camera, I don't even use picasa... but I don't know how to go about that. I tried flashing a different version of gapps, but it didn't help. Is there a way to do this and not lose the new gmail app with pinch to zoom? (Or at the very least not have to clear data and reflash the ROM?)
Thanks

flash a different older gapps and then install the latest Gmail Apk I have it
Thanks for the response, I didn't think of going with an older gapps, just tried that, still doesn't let me use 8mp.. :/
It's starting to look like I'm gonna have to clear data and reflash.. Is there a way to uninstall gapps without clearing data?

Problems with camera on CM10

I'm running the current stable version of CM10 and love it except for one problem. The camera sucks now. It will not focus. It seems to be stuck on infinity even though in the settings I've changed it to everything from Auto to macro.
Is it possible to load just the stock camera on top of the CM camera module?

Can't run stock camera on cm due to drivers not playing well together. But U can run the android 4.2 camera. There are flash able zips all over the place for it. Only downside I've seen from it is if flash is on it'll crash gallery but that only happens to some people. Either way its worth a try sense flashing it won't replace the cm camera just runs along side it.

Thank you. THAT was a helpful answer.
Now I just gotta find that zip.

Well, Now it's really broke. I flashed the camera file from your link and when the new camera launches it crashes when I try to take a picture.
So it's gone from bad to worse...
I re-flashed the file 3 times with now the same results. Even the old camera is crashing now.
It's ashamed I can't get this working because I really love CM10 otherwise. Apparently it's just my device though as others seem to not be having this problem.
I feel like a dolt for having to ask this, but where is CM10 for this device? I checked the get cm website, and the development forum here, and couldn't find anything aosp except for miui.
BTW, a broken camera is a hallmark of anything CM.

Here's the link for the Sprint model.

Just browse up a level for different models and "nightlys".
It's great that this forum covers so much but unfortunately it also makes it difficult, even using search, to find anything.

Sounds like something went wrong with the flash. Maybe the lib files were missing.

Could it help to flash one of the recent "Nightlys"?
I've never done that because it's taken me so long to get the layout of all my apps and pages the way I like them. I know there's some way to back that up but that's for another post I guess. Too new to the whole rooting and ROM flashing process...
I don't think I ever had problems with the CM10 default camera, try a clean flash and try again, and yes, the 4.2 camera does fc on the gallery, sadly its the only reason I can't see myself using anything CM based , I love it, but the default camera basically throws the whole ROM off for me

I had the same problem.. sorta.. after snapping off a photo, the camera would just freeze, then warning / pop up stating 'gallery not responding'.. I ended up dumping and starting over. I'm using the CM10 build date of 11/13 and so far so good, camera and gallery working correctly now.

Here is the new 4.2 camera with working photosphere. It works awsome on the latest T&K AOKP and on CM10.1.. haven't tested on anything else !!Here is the thread where I found it..

This is a noob question, but does this work like the stock Gallery/Camera combo where you can see your Picasa folders? When I was rooted and using a stock Rom I would always upload immediately to Picasa and delete from SD/phone and still be able to see my pics in the folder. Since I switched to JellyBam Rom, I no longer see anything from Picasa, although I can still upload pics to Picasa. I flashed GAPPS 4.1.2, and everything works on the apps, except for the Picasa/Gallery thing. Any help in figuring this out would be greatly appreciated.

This is correct! Thanks for the heads up on the AT&T SGS III. However since "Action" scene is required to be able to use without freezing users should also note that "Action" scene does not have Flash functionality. (No Pictures in the dark). "Auto" mode still freezing up when Auto-Focusing. I'd say if you want the camera to play with Photosphere and never take pictures in the dark then this APK is for you.
That's is working with no problem on JB 4.1 TW base.And the good part : it not replace the TW camera!

I don't know about saving to SD. It doesn't delete your gallery it adds another one beside your original.

About the 2 gallery's/2 cameras: In your app drawer after flashing the first one is stock, second one is photosphere. Just go to the app info and disable the stocks.

I've been running this for about 3 weeks and I have never had to set the scene to anything in order for it to work I just leave it on Auto. It just worked 100% straight outa flashing.
Also, because of this I have working flash as well.

No, it's not unstable. You did something wrong, or your ROM is interfering.
