Did you try to turn on the flash before you start to record the video? I tried that, and worked. I use the stock camera app on ICS.
Yeah i tried that and didnt get it to work :/

Camera help

I have the T889 and 90% of the time video will not save into the phone or it will not play all the way through. It's running my Rom v3 I also had this same problem with my Galaxy S3 running frosty jb Rom before I upgraded to the Note 2 anyone know why I'm having these problem and how to fix them.thanks
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Just some more info that may help when it does not play recorded video all the way through it given me a message that saying video cannot be played even though it plated some of it and it recorded it. Other times it just does not save into the gallery I knows not just a problem with this phone as I also had the same exact problem with the galaxy S3. I'm not sure if is just custom ROMs and I should go back the stock or what.

For it not saving after your done recording, I found out the hard way you HAVE to hit the stop button and make sure your not hitting the pause then exiting the app. Not saying this is what you are doing, but I was and that's why it wasn't saving. Hopefully you find more answers! Good luck.

The flashing process worked flawlessly.
Boot Anim is working , but no sound , i don`t know if it`s supposed to have sound but it doesn`t.
In the initial configuration after flashing , i cannot pick apps for tiles but if i cancel that and try to put them manually it works.
Gallery - gallery is fast , maybe because of quickpic , the pictures made with the camera appear rotated 90 degrees to the right, the camcorder is working.
Torch - not working of course because no flash ) but still .. it gives FC with the process net.cactii.flash2. And also , the bulb on the screen does light on , fc`s , but still the process remains in the statusbar with no posibility to close it.
Clock - everything is working , night dimming , picture gallery , music and alarm.
Swipe to remove is working.
Music - ok
Videos - are ok and smooth with the default player , however it doesn`t find movies that are not in /dcim folder , also MX Player is not working for some reason.
When long pressing something in filemanager it takes a pretty long time for the options to appear , maybe 3 seconds.
Lock screen - ok , not working after flashing but it worked after reboot
Network is good here , calls and messaging are working perfectly ongoing and incoming
Wifi - working
Data - cannot test, i have no data plan
Bluetooth - i tested only with one guy , the devices paired but i couldn`t transfer something , maybe because his battery was almost dead so i`m not sure about this.
GPS - i used GPS toolbox and left it to lock a position for about 10 minutes , it didn`t lock. Although in Google Maps it is working but maybe because of wifi , not sure. I can`t test with anything else as i don`t have any navigation software because i don`t use.
Deep Sleep - working
Also , int2ext4+ script is working perfectly , i have a 1 gb sd-ext partition on a 8 gb class 10 sd card.
Sorry I didn't reply soon but GPS works after I edited gps.conf works nicely in sygic GPS navigation I didn't use any 3g data plan
Bluetooth well.... It worked flawlessly!
Network is working great!
Still have to test some things when I get time
I didn't get lock screen problem(did a full wipe)

Some bugs I have found while deep testing the ROM:
1.After capturing video or picture. While previewing the image or video its rotated.(screenshot included)
2.Torch.apk FC's because of LED not available in gio camera(I think u could use Tiny Led+Flashlight from play store
3.Setup wizard doesnt show up in first boot. Only the launcher settings come

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102980
is some thing like that can work ? in case we have some thing like it foe note 2
guys plz reply me !!
It happens when you use exynos abuse. You can uncheck it again and your camera will work again. Flash a 4.1.2 custom rom and you'll be fine.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Yeah, it's a aide effect of the early exynos abuse patches. They changed the permissions of a certain file which led to the camera just showing a green screen.
Newer kernels should have a patch built in which don't affect the camera, so you can disable the exynos abuse apk's patch and still be safe from the exploit while enjoying your camera

[Q] (FIXED) Screen Rotation Reversed

Hey folks. I've mostly been a lurker around here for a number of years and never posted but I've recently encountered a problem I can't seem to fix on my own. Here's some basic info.
Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919)
Stock ROM (rooted)
Android 4.2.2
BB Version M919UVUAMDL
Kernel Version 3.4.0_562219
Recovery Clockwork Mod Touch
The problem I'm having is that I have to leave my phone with auto rotation off. If I turn it on, landscape and portrait rotations are 180 degrees off, flipped, upside down, etc etc. I've been searching high and low for some way to fix this and no dice! Please let me know what I can do. I have tried accelerometer recalibration and a few apps but I just can't get it to work right.I would like to avoid a re-wipe. I finally have everything just right. Wipes irritate the heck out of me because I guess Clockwork Recovery can't access backups on the external SD card? Ugh.
Problem: flipped screen, camera up side down, camera flipped, screen 180, screen upside down. Reverse portrait, reverse landscape.
Fix: Had bad kernel. Flashed to a newer ktoonz kernel and it fixed the problem.
BTW: I just realized that my camera is also in fact flipped 180. Sheesh. This is a royal pain.

Are you perhaps using a kernel not meant for tmobile? I ported roms for the galaxy s 3 and they always did that unless you used a kernel meant for your devicce.

Im not sure what lernel that is im sorry.just got my s4. But anyhow is it a custom kernel that you flashed? If so make sure you got it from a tmobile thread. Or if you would rather it maybe easier to flash a tmobile kernel such as ktoonz and see if that fixes the issue.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Just figured out its a custom ktoonz kernel. Replaced it with old stock kernel with suid removed and problem seems fixed by my sd card went south when I did. Cant mount it. Copying files off it now.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
Can any1 please link me the most recent stock kernel? Having trouble finding it.

Seems all fixed. Settled for flashing the newest koontz kernel. Cool.

I am seeing the reversed auto rotation on my wife's GS4(SPH-L720) and it is stock unrooted. She has made no changes to anything! Camera and menu's are upside down. Web pages are upside down. She needs to keep auto-rotation off, just to use it! Others online with the same problem have been doing factory resets with no luck. One person did 3 or 4 factory resets and still has the same problem. My rooted GS4 is ok (so far) but hers (not rooted) is driving her nuts. She will never root hers (and would be angry with me if she knew mine was rooted). Any help at all would be appreciated.

If it is stock and unroofed the only explanation would be hardware IMO..... There isn't another explanation especially if a factory reset doesn't help it.

That's what I was afraid of.
It must be a pretty significant issue as a great number of people online are having this same issue!

Reset factory do not solve trouble.
Is there any one find an issue ?
Thx for help
I have the same problem. I flashed official firmware and is not solved, I'm on CM13 right now, will try to flash a custom kernel. I have problems with proximity, accelerometer, temperature and light sensors too.
