[Q] HTC Desire Camera stops on videos recording

Hello Every 1
I am not a noob but have to survive on this matter. I have HTC Desire with S-Off
I installed Aurora v04 Rom and I had asked this in the roms replying page but got no answer there. Now the problem is that when I start Video recording the camera stills for 2 seconds and my desire auto reboots. If any body can help me then It would be thank full. I love aurora v04 rom and its all features but just the camera issue is my damn target. I have used many HTCcamera.apk 's but had the same problem please bear with me if this question is already asked or answered.

Try another rom?

I've used Aurora and honestly, this is way faster and more stable, and has all the same features/tweaks (maybe more!!)
It's my daily Rom now and the videocamera works fine
Make sure you have CM7r2 hboot.
Good luck man

Custom rom help

I am a new user of the HTC DHD, i wanna know if there is any rom that has the least bugs and good battery as i am on the official 2.3.5 android and the battery life is making me wana die, i need my wifi all the time so please suggest a rom which has no problem with wifi and app running
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app

Which rom do you currently use ? the stock one ?
If so, Sense consumes a bit more battery than AOSP roms.
I used to have Cyanogenmod 7.2 with LordModUE 8.9b7 kernel. And it is very very good.
That's for GB roms.
Both JellyTime and IceColdSandwhich roms are good too (but still in beta).
But Wifi is far from being cool with a battery ... Wifi is energy-greedy!!

If you wand the stock HTC look a recommend android revolution
If you wand better performances and battery life use AOSP(android open source project) or Cyanogenmod of AOKP(android open kang project)
Ice cold sand witch have verry good battery life (only bug is camcorder for wat I know)

Which one do u recommend? Aosp or aokp?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app

Cyanogenmod 7.2 is rock stable !
Most of the GB rom are very stable too, and almost bug free.
You have to try each rom, Sense feeling ? Aosp one ?
I used SmartDroid for a long time and really enjoyed it.
Newer roms, 4.0 or 4.1 based are still buggy and lack some features but are already very fast and gives you the most recent android experience.
It's up to you to find the one that fits your needs.
One more point, updating your Radio can be good for your battery too.
I personnaly use 26.14.04.28_M without any issue. (but I may update it now, as I've just flashed Jelly time )

I think i'll go for the cyanogen 7.0, does it give a better battery life?
And btw what is "kernal" and which one should i use and how?

Go for 7.2 instead of 7.0
7.2 is the stable one for Desire HD: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=ace
A kernel is the core of the operating system. To extremely sum up, it deals with your hardware and your programs.
Installing a new one can give you some optimizations, better response, better battery etc.
I personally used the LordModUE kernels. Here is a direct link for the lastest version: http://blackice.omca.co.uk/download...ger-kernels/lordmodUEv8.9-CFS-b7-2WCR-TUN.zip
But be aware that to flash a kernel, you need to first boot with the kernel of the rom (here the CM one), then flash the new one.

First of all, and prior to flashing any rom, you need to perform a nandroid backup.
This is a backup of your current ROM, making an image of each partition, to be able to restore it later, in case of a crash or anything else.
Once you've rooted your phone, a recovery should be installed.
To perform a nandroid backup, you reboot into recovery and choose "backup".
Or, you can install Rom Manager from the market, and choose the same option.
Once this is done, and only after this, you're good to flash any rom you want !
Another method exits to reflash the stock rom, using RUU.
I won't explain this as you can find your answer on this forum.
EDIT: don't forget to check MD5 or SHA1 sum to check the ROM/kernel integrity you download.

I use camera a lot is there any jelly bean custom mod with a working camera cause I am now bored to look at the dame gingerbread is since past 1 yr almost....want some change....
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app

As far as I know, Jelly Time has a working stock camera app.
Actually, video recording in 720p is the only issue. Then, yes, I can take pictures with the stock app on Jelly Time ROM (currently beta 11).
If you want to record a video, you'll have either to change the resolution to 480p or use another app from the market (Videocam Illusion I believe, didn't test it though).
More information here.
The others JB based ROMs are currently too immature for now, and are not as stable as JellyTime.
Also, please be warn that you need to read the opening post (OP) carefully, the moderators are getting annoyed with all the same questions, which answers can be found in the OP.

Advance Ace Hack Kit - a tool developed by former xda member attn1 used to root, SIM Unlock & ENG S-OFF (ENG S-OFF allows you to flash custom ROM's without security checks e.g. md5 checks, bypassing restrictions placed by HTC on our device). He removed the link to it from the forums as he left xda due to personal reasons. Search attn1 ace hack kit on google to find it, as he hosts it on his website now

A mod already said it's ok to link the website as long as the link isn't for a direct download to the aahk

Yes your contacts, data and all personal data will be wiped upon flashing a new ROM, as flashing a ROM almost always requires you to wipe the data partitions. I reccomend you backup all of your data to avoid it. If your android and Sense version is android 2.3.5 and Sense version 3.0 then then you will have to downgrade your software version then attempt root

Rom HD Revolution Wifi problems

Im currently using Rom Revolution HD 7.2 with no problems so far. When tryng to update to 8.1 some wifi problems started, so when 9.0 was released the problem persist.
The wifi connection resets it self and/or loose connection, so i loose all conectivity capacities when wifi is on.
I tried reinstalling several times, with de same results. So finally im back on 7.2 ... ( with the normal sense lag of this version...)
Any advise? Now has been released the 9.1v , but the changelod dosn´t say anything about wifi.
Hope you can help me.
Cheers

I know, the most of people do not have any problems too, but i saw a user posting the exact same problem than me. I can´t replied to him, because my account is too recently created :angel:
But for sure it was a rom problem, i never had before wifi problems. Using stock and HD 7.2 rom..

Did you follow all the instructions (i.e: run super wipe script , flash the correct boot.img etc..) ? I was on 8.1 and now on 9.0.0, didn’t have any WiFi issues on either of them.

I follow all the instructions when installing from stock to 7.2 .
From 7.2 to 8.1 and 9 i try wiping cache, data and delvik only.
Its necesary to flash again the boot.img?

Of course you have to !!!! the kernel is in the boot.img ! Next time follow all the install instructions when flashing a ROM. If some steps can be skipped then the dev will mention them in install instructions. Flashing the boot.img is a must for any new ROM.

Oh crap!
Il do it right now and post the results xD

Yeah, please post us the solution - hope the kernel update works for you
PS. I've also updated without any wipe (but boot.img 9.x.x of course ) and all seems to work fine.

Solved!... I didnt use de boot.img thinking that was not necessary coming from the same rom... my mistake by assuming..:banghead:

The first thing you have to do is to root your device with advanced ace hack kit (search in google), then you can flash custom ROMs. Be careful using the aahk, you must follow the instructions attentively.

Though risky, the benefits is worth it. Jellytime FTW!

Jellytime is the best until yet.

JellyTime is good but I prefer the AOKP Nightlies. Now that BT is fixed it is my new daily driver!

gps problem

after rooting my desire i decided to change ril. from that point all the custom roms i install they have one and only on problem. they dont lock any satellite no matter how much hour searching...i left it one day from 10-30 minutes and the other day 2-3 hours....in open space. nothing. it was searching and searching...what you sugget ? i have tried everything. gps fix, gps status toolbox, reset and download gps.conf, even the a-gps patch. nothing worked at all.
thank you

You flashed radio or RIL?

just RIL

Think of RIL's as the driver software between your OS and your radio. Change rom's and you change RIL's.
But your radio is not changed. The radio and RIL need to work together. You need to find out what radio you have and download and flash the ril for it.
Note there are different requirements for different rom's. With a bit of searching in this forum you can find the right RIL for your ROM and radio.
