Stock ROM, with original camera? Any mods, etc.? Have you tried a 3rd party camera and got the same thing?
Not stock rom. But I can't remember what one I installed, original camera and yes I've tried a different one same results

I gave you a thanks because almost none of the people you helped give you one.
I can't understand why this guy don't give more information or follows the xda rules and is searching before posting.

If it's the same with all camera apps, swems like it could be hardware. It would be a good idea to know which ROM you're using though, since you might find it's a rom-related issue, and you can communicate in rom-specific thread. Try a camera app with manual focus and see if it works properly.
That makes sense to me, how can I find out what rom it is?

I have just downloaded 'a better camera' that supports manual focus. That takes good photos

I would appear that it might be a ROM issue I'm going to download a stock ROM and try that. Thanks for your advice.

The popular iOS app is now available for our phone!
The only problem i had was that it would force close when choosing a photo from the gallery. Other than that its a great app!

I'm having an issue where it FC's everytime I try and take a picture
I'm having that same problem. Has anyone figured a way around it? I tried restarting my phone, but that didn't help.
another with FC
Epic touch on Mijjahs Rom and I get FC once I click on the camera icon to port a picture... lame
What you can still do to upload for the time being is go to your gallery and share the photo through instagram. It acts as a post. I think the app works fine for people with a stock phone.

Probably true, but then I would have to choose... root or instagram.... Uh thats easy I prefer ICS and there's plenty of apps with Filters.
It's also force closing for me on Calk's latest FC24 ICS rom. I haven't tried it on GB. I'll probably flash Blazer 4.1 and see if it runs.
Can anyone with a GB based ROM tell me if it's force closing for you also? It only crashes when you try and take a pic. Hmmm...

Hi, I have a question. What do you mean by sharing it through Instagram and have it acting as a post?
I went to the gallery, shared an image, selected Instagram, but it took me to the "filter-apply" screen, which is the point where it force closes.
Am I doing something wrong? I wouldn't mind editing photos in another app and just posting them on Instagram, and I understood that's kind of what you meant.

When you share it via instagram it allows you to use the filters. Atleast it did for me. I was thinking about trying to flash to FC24 to see if it did anything but I guess it's not working for you either. Hmm, anyone wanna try on a GB build?

I'm flashing Blazer 4.1 (gingerbread) right now to see if it works. Will post update in just a few minutes.
(I was reading the reviews for this app on our device in the play store and all the people who have stock e4gt say it works fine btw.)
**Update: it's working on GB. It's a little flaky still but I am able to capture pics and upload okay. So it's definitely ICS or some combination of things on ICS. I'm sure it will be working when official OTA comes out. I'm going to go back to calk's ICS for now as I don't really care enough about instagram to use GB. I've been just fine without instagram since it came out, and I'll be fine without it for a while longer.
to get photo upload to work, go to the my profile tab (last one to right), then in the upper right hand corner click the settings dots. once in there, deselect IG ADVANCED CAMERA

What's the "instagram advanced camera" supposed to be?
I am running the CM10-20121018-NIGHTLY. I noticed once I flashed this rom with the newest gapps, now my camera is maxed out at 3mp instead of 8.
I searched around and read through the forum for the CM10 rom on the development forum. I am not allowed to post there yet i guess, but from what I gathered other people are having this issue too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924561&highlight=3mp+8mp+camera&page=93
Its unclear what they mean by "you can have 8mp camera, or 3mp and picasa sync". I would much rather have the 8mp camera, I don't even use picasa... but I don't know how to go about that. I tried flashing a different version of gapps, but it didn't help. Is there a way to do this and not lose the new gmail app with pinch to zoom? (Or at the very least not have to clear data and reflash the ROM?)
Thanks

flash a different older gapps and then install the latest Gmail Apk I have it
Thanks for the response, I didn't think of going with an older gapps, just tried that, still doesn't let me use 8mp.. :/
It's starting to look like I'm gonna have to clear data and reflash.. Is there a way to uninstall gapps without clearing data?

I have no idea I've never downgraded gapps b7t I'm pretty sure the gapps aren't the problem I think it's the rom that happens sometimes
Oh ok that makes sense. Thanks for the help bud. I'm choked, I was loving this Rom... Maybe I'll try the AOKP jb rom

No problem! ... I think it's just a certain nightly though... try erickwills CM10 I was on it with no problems now I'm running PA though
I'm running the current stable version of CM10 and love it except for one problem. The camera sucks now. It will not focus. It seems to be stuck on infinity even though in the settings I've changed it to everything from Auto to macro.
Is it possible to load just the stock camera on top of the CM camera module?

Can't run stock camera on cm due to drivers not playing well together. But U can run the android 4.2 camera. There are flash able zips all over the place for it. Only downside I've seen from it is if flash is on it'll crash gallery but that only happens to some people. Either way its worth a try sense flashing it won't replace the cm camera just runs along side it.

Thank you. THAT was a helpful answer.
Now I just gotta find that zip.

Well, Now it's really broke. I flashed the camera file from your link and when the new camera launches it crashes when I try to take a picture.
So it's gone from bad to worse...
I re-flashed the file 3 times with now the same results. Even the old camera is crashing now.
It's ashamed I can't get this working because I really love CM10 otherwise. Apparently it's just my device though as others seem to not be having this problem.
I feel like a dolt for having to ask this, but where is CM10 for this device? I checked the get cm website, and the development forum here, and couldn't find anything aosp except for miui.
BTW, a broken camera is a hallmark of anything CM.

Here's the link for the Sprint model.

Just browse up a level for different models and "nightlys".
It's great that this forum covers so much but unfortunately it also makes it difficult, even using search, to find anything.

Sounds like something went wrong with the flash. Maybe the lib files were missing.

Could it help to flash one of the recent "Nightlys"?
I've never done that because it's taken me so long to get the layout of all my apps and pages the way I like them. I know there's some way to back that up but that's for another post I guess. Too new to the whole rooting and ROM flashing process...
I don't think I ever had problems with the CM10 default camera, try a clean flash and try again, and yes, the 4.2 camera does fc on the gallery, sadly its the only reason I can't see myself using anything CM based , I love it, but the default camera basically throws the whole ROM off for me

Yeah it only fc if the flash is on but that's a killer for me. Only hope is when cm 10.1 hits SG3.

I had the same problem.. sorta.. after snapping off a photo, the camera would just freeze, then warning / pop up stating 'gallery not responding'.. I ended up dumping and starting over. I'm using the CM10 build date of 11/13 and so far so good, camera and gallery working correctly now.
I'm running CM 10.1 & my camera reboots every time I take pix with flash enabled... Not only on this ROM though but aosp ROMs period... So does anyone know of a camera I can use on 10.1??? If so can u link me to??? Thanks in advance

Sometimes it takes longer than a couple of hours before someone can help.
Anyways, can we have a little more information?
When you downloaded CM10.1, did you do check the md5sum to make sure your download wasn't corrupted somehow?
When installing these various AOSP Roms, did you just wipe /data and /cache?
In past Roms, have you ever tried a camera mod or something that might affect the camera?
Are you using a custom Kernel?
I would try the following:
Verify that your download was complete (md5sum). If not, redownload.
Do a full system wipe. Not just a factory reset. I'm thinking something left over in your /system is interfering with your camera.
I've done all that bro.... no cam mods... nothing... everything is as it should b... and it only happens on AOSP roms for me.. on two different s3's... I don't need a fix I just wanna know if I can just use another camera app.. if so.. can someone lead the way

try downloading an apk for a different camera. also trying making sure you kill all your apps and release some ram. I never had the cam issue but had so laggin issues n what I just explained fixes all that. also when u downloading the rom and installing it. did it give u the option to choose different cameras? like with morph we get to pick which cam app is wanted.
does anyone know a camera oriented rom or the best app for camera modes and features, I'm into phone photography and am trying to make the most out of my S4
Your best bet would be to search for the best camera with your preferences and get the apk file for said camera. As for a ROM, with as much time/effort it takes to build a ROM, I dont think there is such a ROM that you are looking for giving that not many people ask about or want one. I could be wrong tho. Find a nice slim custom ROM and set up your phone as you see fit.
