So my video camera FC's IMMEDIATELY every time I try to zoom in or out while recording video @ any resolution. I'm using an AT&T D850 it is rooted no xposed or anything just removed a few bloat AT&T apps. Anyway I'm using ART now but on Dalvik it did it also. Here is a logcat I started it after I had already started recording the video and I tried to zoom as quick as I could after hitting enter to start the log cat, and since it FC immediately after the FC I hit ok on the phone and stopped the logcat. Still captured a bunch of stuff...and I can see where the error happened I just have no clue what it means.
Anyway here is a link to my logcat. logcat.txt

Hi guys,
Any idea why the camera closes when recording at 720p? I can record fine with the next resolution (widescreen 800x480). If I set the resolution at 720p and press the record button, the menu freezes for a few seconds and the camera closes, showing me my homescreen. I've never been able to record 720p before so I don't know if it had worked when it was still new. I have this phone for a month now. Restarted the phone and everything, even installed task killer and killed everything before recording but still no luck. I tried searching on the net but I think nobody has ever encountered the problem before. I don't have any other video recording app. What I do have are camera/editing apps: fxcamera and picsay.
Anybody knows what I should do? I don't want to wipe my phone because I already have a month's work of modifying, downloading, etc put into my phone.
Also, my phone IS NOT rooted.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I just found out that it has the same problem with the online HD mode. So basically when I try to shoot at HD, it crashes.
EDIT 2: I noticed that when I'm in HD recording mode (720p and online HD), the digital zoom bar on the left disappears. It appears with all the other recording qualities. I guess this is part of the problem.
Yesterday I had exactly the same problem .
Thats what i have tried , and finally fixed the problem :
1. Go to application manager ( the built-in one ) -> all apps -> Camera app
pressed "Force stop" . DIDN'T WORK
2. Restart the phone ( fastboot ) -> DIDN'T WORK
3. Shut down the phone , Started it ( Slow booting up , not fastboot )
FINALLY WORKED , camera started to work once again
-> Just need to shut down the phone , and boot it up without fastbooting ..
Now the camera works , but haven't understood what I had done that the phone camera stuck .. :/
My HTC one V, on the first day the video recording worked fine. However after that, when I try to record a video it will not work. The camera is fine and everything just when I press the record button, it makes the sound that it is recording, but there no timer to indicate that it is recording. None of the options work except for the HOME button. When I click the HOME button, the camera is still "recording" mode but it never records anything. I have to restart the phone to end the camera process.
I am planning to root and flash a custom ROM to see if it fix it but I am waiting on a new release of a ROM. In case this does not fix it has anyone know how to fix this issue.
Try this...
I was having a similar problem with the music app... i went to app manager, force stopped the app and cleared data... that fixed it... you should try that with the camera app before flashing...
Hello,
Yesterday I purchased the Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch for Virgin Mobile (SP-D710VMUB). I am incredibly happy with the phone so far, however when I downloaded Instagram, I discovered that recording video caused the phone to freeze, and eventually restart on its own.
After searching for the problem, I saw that some LG users had a problem where only the front facing camera would record. I thought I'd give it a shot, and the front facing camera works perfectly. No freezing or crashes. I also so the post about the Epic 4G Touch where users had to disable 'Use Instagram's Advanced Camera'. After disabling the option, I am unable to select video, and am only able to take photos.
Nothing else seems to cause freezing or crashing in Instagram, only taking video with my rear camera.
I am running on Jelly Bean 4.1.2. I am not rooted, and the phone is completely stock as of right now.
If anyone has any information, or any idea as to what may be causing this problem; any advice would be much appreciated.

Here is a link to an Instagram apk. I would try it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2332178
Just delete the instagram app you have installed...download the instagram apk. from the link and install with a file manager..( es xplorer/astro )..to just list a couple...any file manager/browser will work. No need to be rooted..so don't worry about that.
That being said..I do not use Instagram..So this is just a guess on my part...Read through the whole thread..( I just skimmed )..Could be other users having this issue as well and might have a fix..But from what I saw..it looked to be working.
Thanks for the reply! I tried the apk you linked (v4.1.0). Unfortunately, I still have the same problem. However, I did discover that it isn't freezing and crashing immediately when pressing the record button anymore, but instead when I finish recording a video.
If you are using the 4G Epic Touch, could you please install Instagram and attempt to record video to see if you have the same problem? I'm not sure as to whether this might be a problem with my phone or with the Instagram app.
Thanks again for your reply.
EDIT: I noticed that the phone's buttons remained responsive for a short time after Instagram froze. I was able to hit the home button after it locked up following the recording of a video. After making it to the home screen, I was able to go back into Instagram only to find a still frame of the video I just took, and black bars in place of the Instagram UI. Android soon reported that Instagram wasn't responding and allowed me to force close it via the prompt.
I don't know if this information is relevant or helpful to anyone, but I thought I'd post it anyway.
@Auze
ill try it later..as of now im downloading 4.3 gapps for a new rom on my gtab 10.1...
But to me it sounds like an app problem...
Thanks, if you don't get around to it, it's no big deal. I appreciate your help. I agree that it sounds like an app problem, although I am curious if it happens to all 4G Epic Touches.
For anyone that has this problem, I worked around it by filming a video with the stock Camera app, and then going into Instagram and uploading that video from the Gallery. It will go right into the Instagram video editor, and you can proceed as normal.
Getting a weird one. When I am video'ing, and I try to zoom in, the camera then crashes with "Unfortunately, the camera has stopped"
I have tried with Google Camera, which I have installed, and the zoom seems to work fine, but I would rather use the LG G3 camera app
The zoom works fine when not recording, and when taking stills, but only crashes when actually recording
Edit :
Have done a full factory reset, and have just let the phone update what it needs from the Play store (google services etc), have not installed any 3rd party apps ... and still having the same problem
Initially the zoom worked, but rebooted the phone and now the camera stops again
If I zoom in to say 5x and then start teh video, it records, but as soon as I try and zoom in or out, it crashes
The phone is stock, LG-D855 and running V10h-EUR-XX
Hello, plese help.
I have [ROM][8.0.0][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 15.0
I can't download files from my phone, also camera don't save recorded video. the app says "error, video file may be corrupted" after recording. Photos are saved succesfully. I think both problems could relate to file permississions? but i'm lost, how do I even check these permissions? Ḯm using gmtp and upload works fine.
Edit:tried another camera app. this time the message is:
java.lang.illegal argument exception
surface was abandoned
Edit: no luck downloading with another cable, also mtp-getfile gave same error "Error getting file from MTP device"
Did you enable Camera2 API? I'm on stock 8.1 (Root + camera2 API enabled) and I can't record videos with 3rd party apps. I always get "error, video file may be corrupted" too.
Camera api2 disabled or enabled from opencamera app, makes no difference just slightly different error message. Default/original camera gives no errors but video file size is 0kb. I'm pretty sure the video did work when I first installed the rom, so it should be just some settings that I have changed.
I can only record videos with the stock camera without any problems. Others apps just give a "can't record video" warning.
Let us know if you find a solution. Good luck ?
Video seems to be working again. Settings/Sound/Other sounds and vibrations, I disabled everything and now it works!?
Oh, really, thanks a lot. Now, I can record with Cinema-FV5 and Open Camera
EDIT: It worked after applying the settings and restarting. After several minutes, the message reappears (and the phone has to restarted again to be able to record videos again). So, this is a temporary solution
Yes, it seems to be only temporary fix, very frustrating. Default lineageos camera isn't working either just freezes the screen.
