G3 camera crash while zooming in video mode - T-Mobile LG G3

Had any one experienced the crashing of the camera app while trying to zoom when capturing video. I'm on art and using 1080p video capture.

You're not alone, mine does it rooted and my wife's does totally stock

No crash on mine. Factory wipe and u will be ok
AWESOME G3

Mine did it yesterday. I did a factory reset and so far today it's been fine. Might want to try that. It did it while I was trying to do 4K, 1080p, and basically any type of video while zooming. I used the Google Camera App and it worked fine but that wasn't good enough of a work around. I'm hoping I won't have any further issues.
There's also another thread that has this issue reported. Might want to look over there for any other help.

Then we could lose root and have to re-root right ?

No you just loose data. Before you download any app or load data test the camera and see if it running well. If it not try another ROM if that don't work unroot and flash factory ROM. Then reroot and start all over.

Video chat apps using the Rear Facing Camera.

I know it has to be something I missed but I recently rooted using the SimplerRoot for the OTA. Since the root, I have had apps disappear fro the App store and both Fring and Qik are using the rear camera vs the front facing one.
This is a fresh root. no backups from my previous Rom have been installed. Any ideas.

Actually, I have not tested it. Video chat isn't much fun when i can't look at the person.
quality when recording is wonderful, when using qik it's actually not that bad . i would give it maybe a 7 out of 10.
i didn't use skype so i can't review that

I fixed the issue. I found another version of the Rooted OTA and flashed it to the phone. everything works perfectly after the reboot. both the cam and the missing apps are working brilliantly.

[Q] Snapchat recording time jacked on CM based ROMS

I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this problem; but on any CM Rom I am having problems with Snapchat in terms of recording time for recording time. For some reason it is not maximized (or doesn't go to the time allotted). The video stops extremely short, and only gives about one second of recording time. Does anyone that uses this know why?

I'm also having this problem, mine just records about 5 seconds and plays back like 3 seconds.
Has anyone found the fix for this?
This is still a problem!
Has anyone found a fix or a workaround for this problem?
Bump!! Running uXylon. Very short Snapchat video recording with both front and rear facing cameras. And i'm not sure if this is could be related but the video recording quality in Instagram is terrible -- very pixilated.
Sorry to bump this thread, but I've found the fix is to go into the settings and change the video quality from standard to low quality. Hope this helps everyone!
I have also found you can set the camera quality back to standard after performing the previous fix and the issue seems to disappear.

All you have to do is change the camera settings to low, and the camera orientation to 180 and it should work! I had this problem as well.

This does not work!!
Had a dream about this... Try going to Camera app and go to video setting, in the recording setting change the video to a lower one. Then go back to Snapchat and see if that works for you. Mine was at 1080p and when I changed it to 720p it started working amazing. Try setting it lower if that doesn't work for you. Mine was only recording for 1 second and would stop, after this I can record the full length allowed now. Let us know if this works for you

Tried this. Did not work.
Also, the in-call sound have kept disappearing, so I can't hear the person I'm talking to.
I'm changing rom to Jedi X today, excited to see if all of my problems will be solved.
Did anyone find a solution? I'm having the same issue and none of the solutions above worked for me.

[Q] Snapchat Video Recording/Playback Error

I'm using a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 on CM11 with TWRP. I cannot seem to get video recording or playback (although I am not very sure about video playback, I've only received pictures in the past while) to work. With an older version of Snapchat, video recording appears to work but then right before I am about to send the video, a message pops up and says that it cannot play the video. Is this related to "Camcorder does not actually record to storage" in the TeamChopsticks "Known Issues That Will Be Fixed"? If not, is there a way that I can fix this?

I've been having this problem with all jellybean ROMs, including stock.
I'm with ya, most likely a Jellybean problem. So if you absolutely need it, maybe revert to an ICS rom or go to stock.

the only fix I've found is to use an older version of snapchat , but you unfortunately lose many of the newer features
You wouldn't happen to have an older version would you
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
working version
I have had these problems too, I find that the version that works is SnapChat 3.07, lets you use front and rear cam for pics and video with no issues.
I just googled for the APK
Im running CM 11 nightlies. I think it's something to do with video framework. I have similar problems with the Tiny Chat app.
I tried googling but couldn't find it could you pm me a link

Camera Problem Video Recording Auto Focus

I have an auto focus problem when video recording with the OPPO Find 7a.
The camera auto focuses perfectly when not video recording, continuously readjusting focus when pointing at different objects. Once video recording has been started, however, focus is locked to the last focused length, and it does not auto refocus no matter how you move the phone. In other words, there is no continuous auto focus.
Since auto focus does work when not video recording, I believe this is a software problem.
I have tried the following:
Factory Reset
Updating ROM to ColorOS 2.0
But both methods failed to fix the camera focus problem.
I am looking to try the following:
Updating / Resetting the Kernel
However, I am not sure how to do this. Can somebody help me please?
Thank you community!:laugh:

Thanks for your test.
I actually did not have this problem until recently. I believe I may have messed up the camera part of the kernel.
I tried googling "oppo find 7a stock kernel", but could not find anything.
Would you know where I can download the stock kernel?
Thank you so much.

It's the boot.img. Download either v 1.2 or 2 Rom to computer depending which Rom you are using and extract from zip file. I don't think it is the kernel if you already tried the beta Rom and still have the problem.

You are right.
I flashed the boot.img (kernel, thanks for telling me!), and the focus problem in video recording is still present.
Would you have any suggestions as to what I should do?

Go back to your vendor and complain. You should get a one to one exchange.

I contacted my vendor and this is what they said:
...continuous auto-focus feature is not implemented yet in the video mode. OPPO assured that they are working on including this feature in future firmware updates.
Now I'm confused. I'm pretty certain that continuous auto focus works before.
Can someone double check with me?
Thank you so much.

Hi, I just checked again. There is really no problem in focusing when video recording for me. I move away from an object with words and come back. The words come into focus again. Maybe you should send or show them a sample video, or someone else can suggest something else.
I have same problem. If I recording video with different objects in near and far of me camera still refocused objective.
So recording some sceneries is not possible.

Camera force closing after failed attempt to mod it.

I was trying to mod my camera following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2778570 but then my video camera wasnt working. I then tried to instal another mod because someone said that fixed their issue which was the same as mine (video causing force closure). http://www.droidviews.com/jishnus-camera-mod-for-lg-g3/
What now? I just want to be able to shoot nice photos and videos

The jishnus camera mod is what I used and it is working perfectly.
I also had camera fc first time I tried it, then I read carefully, copy all the files, change permissions, but the one thing I missed was "delete the LGCamera .odex" file.
So once I deleted that file, rebooted, and everything was/is working great!
Hope you get it right, let us know.
