Installed CM11 - KitKat 4.4.4 and the camera, at times, locks up and won't take a picture. I have tried the stock apk for the 4.4 camera and the same thing happens... Any ideas?
I just ripped off 3 shots in short succession on my homemade build (T889 specific 4.4.4 CM11). It worked fine for me. Are you able to reproduce it reliably? Which gapps are you running? Try dirty flashing the rom over your install if you haven't done so since your last gapps flash.

Alright, I know the camera isn't broken because the camera works on any rom that isn't cyanogen based. I made sure i wiped all data and cache before installing cyanogen and I got the correct gapps too, but every time i try to load any camera app, it errors and shuts down. the integrated camera app says "cannot connect to camera" and then closes right away after opening it. How is this fixable? what am I doing wrong?
Bump, Im having the same issue. Its perplexing to say the least.
What camera are you using? I was on Paranoid Android 2.54 and when I flashed the 4.2 camera, it did not play nice. Taking a picture will freeze the app and then from that point on it never connected to camera. Are you pulling the right Gapps?

I flashed black bean v7 along with the gapps they posted on their website for bb7. I've been flashing the 4.1 gapps on the 4.1 Roms and 4.2 gapps on the 4.2 Roms. I did a bit more research and a few people have mentioned a bin file that they grab from the stock image and put into /data on the new rom. I'm going to try that in a bit.

T-Mobile SGS III
Hi I don't know if this is the appropriate place to post this but I was wondering if anyone had a known fix for the camera for my t-mobile galaxy S3. It used to work before the last two snapshots of CM, now it just says Camera has stopped working on all Camera applications. Maybe I should go back to the last stable? That was a while now.. Thank you in advance! Also Have tried flashing Slimkat, seemed to work but I care for the ROM much. Maybe can someone point me in the direction of a good ROM to use?
Try Nexus Camera
I was on CM 11 M12 and was having a similar issue. Any time I would try to change the flash status the camera app would fail (Cannot Connect to Camera) and not come back until I rebooted the phone. I switched from CM11 M12 to Pac Rom 4.4.4 KTU84Q and had the exact same issue. Tried the CM Camera Fix App (CMFix) and that did nothing. I went and got the Nexus Camera App from the Play Store and haven't had any issues with the camera since. It's kind of weird because it appears to be the EXACT same camera but it worked for me.
Hey guys,
I've been trying to remedy this for a couple weeks now and am having no luck at all. The problem first started after updating from stock 4.1.2 to Slimkat 4.4.4. I'm rooted and I couldn't update over Kies, so I went straight to custom.
The Rom in general is fantastic and I would have liked to continue using it but in third party apps (snapchat) the front camera gave has the wrong aspect ratio, resulting in a stretched image and being ultimately unusable. I use snapchat a lot, and this was a dealbreaker for me. I asked in the qa thread, no reply so I tried others. The normal front camera works fine.
I've been flashing roms like crazy trying to find ones that worked for me, and I've found that the only ones that work are samsung based touchwiz ones.
I've googled around and the resounding answer is that it shouldn't be happening after CM updated, but every CM based rom results in the same issue.
I really like CM and it's derivatives and I'd like to go back to using it. Not a fan of touchwiz.
I've been through (in order):
Stock 4.1.2 (everything worked fine)
Slimkat 4.4.4 (fantastic, camera problem)
Dirtyunicorn (fantastic, camera problem)
CarbonRom (fantastic, camera problem)
CM11 (fantastic, camera problem)
AOSPA 4.6 (fantastic, camera problem)
Liquidsmooth 5.0 (favourite, but same front camera distortion)
Stock 4.4.2 (everything works, still touchwiz)
Likewise S5 4.4.2 (everything works, awesome rom, currently using)
if I try back to AOSPA 4.6 and same problem as before occurs
Every time it's a full wipe, fresh gapps install, etc
Thanks in advance.
E: All Rom versions are the current stable release as of about a week ago.
E: Using the current TWRP now, was using the current CWM touch up until I got a bootloop and had to odin in twrp to fix it.
Bump?

just a real shot in the dark , but tried clearing cache in snapchat ; or uninstalling then reinstalling. or if have tibu then restore from 4.1.2 when was working. is there a Q&A for snapchat ? sorry dont have more , probably already tried these. ¿
or here is a different version/style , dont know if it would make a difference tho.

Hi there, I've try many android 6.0 ROM on my LG F180 (Korean version Optimus G). Seems like everyone of them's rotation function is not working. If I flash back to 5.X rom or kitkat roms. Then it gets back to normal. Does anyone got the same problem? Does anyone know how to fix it? Or I did something stupid? Thanks!
Mine is working just fine with Nitrogen OS (E975)
Hi there!
I am having these issues ever since I flashed 5.1 unofficial CM12. The rotation and auto-brightness went broken. Here's what helped recently:
- did a backup of my ROM in TWRP
- plugged the phone to a PC and got all my data properly copied, including the TWRP backup (it turned out to be essential, but that's just my fault)
- downloaded original KK firmware for my phone edition, also downloaded LGFlashTool 2014
- went back to stock using instructions from XDA
- rooted again and got TWRP recovery up and running
- did a full wipe, yes, including internal storage (yet I don't know if you need this, I just went for it)
- flashed the ROM I chose (im my case it was the CM12 backup I had cause of gapps issues with 6.0)
Don't know why but the sensors worked perfectly for me at that moment. I have broken them again by flashing another custom ROM over the CM12 and today I am going to give it another go.
Also, while browsing XDA I came across various posts stating that when you downgrade to stock or actually even another ROM based on official KK and only then flash the custom ROM it should all work again. In my case it seems like a coincidence, or the internal storage wipe worked miracles.
Good luck!
Mine is working. Did you tried the XenonHD 5.11 or the XenonHD 6.0 rom?
got the same problem

I did try on XenonHD 6.0 rom, but the rotation still doesn't work. All others Kit Kat or Lollipop ROM are fine for me. BTW, Are U having F180? or E975?

I've got the E975.
Did you do a full wipe?(dalvik cache , etc..)
I think you did , because you tried everything , but maybe not
I've got a massive battery drain issue with 6.0 Xenon HD. (50-70% overnight)
I've installed all the same apps as on my previous rom.(1-2% overnight)
Anyone else?
how about the camera? do you are able to do photosphere or panorama pictures with google camera app??
So, I went ahead and installed CM 14.1, and it's fine, but I absolutely hate the Cm stock camera app and would love to have the Oneplus stock camera. I can't find the apk or libs from anywhere. Any help?
there is this, working on official cm13:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/themes/port-oxygenos-stock-camera-cm-t3451721
This port is working on CM13 and even on some mods based on CM13 (BJRR but not all versions) I doubt it can be used on something different. It can be even dangerous - for example on latest BJRR 13.11.2016 you get bootloop. We still wait for modified version. So don't flash something not confirmed working with the very exact version of your ROM.
