This is really annoying!
Every time I launch the camera, it asks me if I want to save to the sd card. I have the SD card icon selected in the camera app but it keeps on asking EVERY TIME!
Is there some way to stop this annoying behavior?

I used to have that too on KitKat... Updating to Lollipop fixed it for me. Which version are you on?
cheers
Lollipop!

Well that's strange then. Maybe to try the general things: Have you tried cleaning data and cache for the camera app?
That's a good idea - I'll try that and report back in a while. Thx!
Have you changed your DPI? When i changed mine, the sd setting wasnt visible on the screen and it would ask where to save every time i opened the camera app.
Any solution to this issue?

Hi, did you ever find a solution to this issue? I have the same thing going on...and have seen other threads with similar complaints on other websites (though with no solution)...
I tried the solutions and it worked for a while but today, it asked again! I have no idea why, so I cleared the cache, restarted the phone and it's not asked again, at least for the moment!
It's not a great fix but I don't really know what's causing it!

My phone has been acting really weird. Throughout the day, I will check my phone and see the time. I am using Fancy Widget Pro and for some reason, after a while, the time on the widget and system no longer match. It's about a 5 to 15 minute difference. It really depends. I was also using setCPU and when I would charge it and the take out the charger, SetCPU would not change back to the profile that I made. Another problem I have noticed is when I plug the USB-microUSB from the computer to the phone, when I finish and take the cord out, the computer knows it's gone, but my phone still thinks it is there. The only other problem I can think of, which is the biggest, is I don't think I am receiving text messages. I sent a couple to myself, and never got them. The only way that I know to fix this problem is to restart my phone, but I never get those texts back. Any help would be awesome. I have already tried Odin and going back to a different stock ROM. I have also done countless factory resets. I have no clue what is going on. If you need anymore info on what I am running or anything, just let me know. Once again, any help would be awesome.
P.S. I am on EH06, deodexed and pre-rooted. I also flashed maddoggin's lockscreen mod. I don't know if that helps, but I might as well put it there.
Thank you.

Have you frozen and services/programs? This is the only thing I can think of, but I am no where near an expert!

No I have not. Will that really change anything? I just flashed stock EH17 (unrooted) to my phone to see if that would stop this from happening. What would I freeze?

Well, i guess if you were freezing programs, maybe something got frozen that was related to updating. The USB issue i have had in the past, and that has always been fixed by a reflash for me. The time not updating, I have had that as well, and for me it was related to Juice Defender and my data settings. I am not sure how much flashing you do, but I have noticed that if I have flashed a few ROMS/Themes/Kernels, over the course of a few days (especially going back and forth from Froyo to GB) I will start getting all kinds of weird issues happening. Usually when that happens, I will back up my SD card, wipe it and reformat it, Odin back to stock EC05, and start the whole process over again with re-rooting. Sorry if this was not much help. Just trying to give my experience, albeit limited!

No, I appreciate it. I have been flashing a lot lately. I have never re-formatted my SD card, but I am sure I could figure out how to do that. I was thinking it was the ROM I had, but then I flashed a different ROM and it still did it. I will go about reformatting my SD card and let you know how that goes. Thanks for the info man.

Hey, no problem. To reformat the SD card, what I have done, is just copy the whole card to me PC, then go into CWM and there is formatting options in the mount and storage section if i remember correctly. then, i will just copy back the apk's and pics, music, etc...
I have 2 questions.
1) When you reformat your SD card, did that solve your problems?
2) I went into task manager and didn't see L1 or L2 RAM. Where do I look?

1) fixes some problems, definitely increased stability, if you do a lot of deleting, adding, moving, etc..
2) in task manager click on the RAM manger tab. But seeing as Android managers memory on its own, clearing L1 and L2 RAM is useless and only causes problems (sending and receiving texts) in my opinion.

I am formatting as we speak.
Do you know what aspect of a fragmented sd card wld cause those issues. I've had the clock issue using fancy widgets and cldnt find the cause. Is that something than can be rectified without formatting my card. Where and what are diff roms putting on the external sd card besides the android secure folder. Sorry I'm pretty ignorant re: flash media fragmentation. Doesn't make sense to me brains.
adamdelozier, thank you very much man. Seemed to have fixed my problem...... Been running it all day after the format and everything is working great. Once again, thank you very much.

Ok So I'm having some issues with my SGSII
I am rooted and I'm running Juggernaut v3.7
When I try and use my camera app I get a warning: camera failed message
It started off happening after my phone had been on for a while (I would get the error message and then reboot and the camera would work fine for a short amount of time, before the error message returned) now I am getting this error message constantly and the only way to get the camera working again is If I reboot into CWM and wipe data,cache,dalvik & reboot or go through the wipe process and re-flash the Juggernaut v3.7 rom. But still even doing so only enables the camera once and then I'm back to my original issues. I've searched the site and other resources available before making this post. Most of the information I have come across with users having similar problems refer to the I9000 and not the SGH-T989.
So my questions are (of course):
Has anyone had these issues?
Has anyone that has had these issues (if any) found a solution?
And does anyone know If this is hardware or firmware related? - (Or can someone point me to the right procedure of figuring out if it is a hardware or firmware issue?)
Hope to hear from someone soon thanks XDA
Sounds like hardware, or could be kernel, you could try a different kernel ..
Best way would be to Odin back to Stock, and see if it still does it, if it does it on pure stock , you know it is a hardware issue ...

Thank you for the reply, I have found a solution to the problem (so far at least no issues) I removed the sd card, re-inserted the sd card and did an sd card format and the problem has gone away. Well at least for the last 12 or so hours anyways. Hope this helps anyone with the same problem.
I was just about to say, check your SD card. Same damn thing happened to me a few weeks ago. All it takes is one corrupted image on the card to completely bork the camera.

Yeah, I was just messing around with it and figured out that the sd card format may have been corrupt, or it could have been a bad file messing with the camera process in android. T-mobile actually sent me a new one that should be delivered today, I'm going to have to send it back now that I have it figured out. lolol
**BTW** I'm using your throttle fix lolol thanks
No problem, glad to help
Hey...not so fast...LOL!
Totally hate to revive such and old thread, but I am currently experiencing the exact same issue using Juggernaut 5.0, and the VKL1 radio, with faux10m kernel. I have in fact remove all external sd cards, and still the camera app keeps giving me Camera Failed. I'm wondering if I install a differnt camera app from Google Play, if this will be a solution? Any tips/advice is quite welcome. I'll be back and let you know if installing another camera app works! Thanks in advance.
I had the same message as the OP pop up when I had my vibrant. I ended up having to buy a replacement camera.

This happened to me after throwing my phone at my bed, it bouncing off, and hitting the wall. When activating my camera, I got the message.
Called T-Mobile, told them the problem, and got a refurb. Now my phone has all sorts of problems!
I have no idea why the Android market has suddenly gone dark and i cant see the main screen, when i click on my apps i can see them as normal and if i click on settings comes up as normal and if i click the search button and type in the name of an app it shows the page as normal but anytime i click back the page is just black ive attached a screenshot of this, only happened after i switched SIM cards but i switch SIM cards all the time and nothing like this has ever happened before, i was playing around with Titanium Backup earlier but i don't think i made any major changes and as far as im aware the market was fine then.
Has anyone ever experienced a problem like this before and any solution?
Cheers

Go to Settings - Applications - All - Market. Clear data and try again. Should that not help uninstall any updates and open the market again.

Top man that does the job
I upgraded via kies yesterday and have been exploring since. Only big thing I have noticed is that that photo gallery is almost unusable for me. Major hang ups. Do you think I just need to wipe it and start over again or are others experiencing this gallery slow down?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Some gallery apk on certain jb roms have known issues. So it is not your phone
i would try to delete the android/data folder on your internal usb storage. There's some files for your pics/images thumbnails and sometimes gives problem when updating rom... Just delete those and restart... android will recreate them!
Don't do anything. It will fix itself.The caching of the thumbnails takes forever for whatever reason but after a day or two, it finishes and starts working properly.
I had the same exact problem. Someone else suggested the same thing and after a day or two its worked without an issue.

I still think the 4.1.2 TW gallery is pretty awful in comparison to the AOSP/AOKP gallery, or even apps like Quickpic....Even after letting it cache, it's clunky at best...
Good evening, just lately I have encountered a bug when trying to install APK's. When I go to install via Package Installer it will open up the screen and when I go to press next it doesn't do anything, I have tried rotating the screen and pressing Next and it just doesn't work whatsoever...
I powered off my device and powered back on and this seemed like it fixed the problem.
Is/has anyone else encountered this? I've also noticed ometimes when typing on the keyboard the sound goes tinny for 5 seconds or so and go back to normal, it's been like this since unboxing too.
I haven't had this issue exactly, but when I install a new app and it asks for permission to access my location/storage/etc.. I can't press Allow.. I can press Deny though no problem at all. Right now I'm manually going into apps/permissions and granting all my apps whatever I think it needs.. Just a pain to do it that way though!
I had this issue the other night. It seems an invisible overlay gets stuck sometimes. Not sure what app or why, but clearing all the recent apps fixed it for me. Try that if it happens again instead of waiting for the phone to restart.

Also had this problem two days ago and restarting seemed to fix it. I was disabling some of the stock apps at the time so I wondered if that had something to do with it but I don't know, don't think I re-enabled any of the apps or anything before or after the reboot and so far it's been working since.

Thanks for your feedback and I have also had that problem too. Of course yes we can go into app settings and enable and like you stated it's a pain haha. I know this isn't the place to point these problems out and get them fixed but it's nice to know I'm not the only one ??

Yes dude, that's correct and thanks for that valuable information I do clean my cache regularly and can't say I've come across the problem for a while, so thanks again.

I'd like to mention I have disabled and uninstalled quite a lot too, but I can't say if this adds to the problem. It'd just be really nice to hopefully get the new build of software that was recently announced on Xperia Blog but I can't say if this will fix the problems etc. I don't know? ??

I've experienced this issue as well and the culprit seemed to be an overlay permission from another app. As I'm sure everyone knows, this phone's screen is very bright even at it's lowest setting. I like to read at night and the light bothers my wife so I started using an app called Nightowl that further dims the screen. Nightowl produces a overlay that dims the entire screen. If i happen to be running nightowl and try to install the app, I can't tap install. Once I turn off the app I'm able to install like normal. Hope that helps lead you in the right direction as restarting the phone every time a problem presents itself is kind of a bummer.
