Hi guys I'm on ICE 2.0 MM rom And there is a massive lag on the camera app. I installed regular m8 camera during installation of the rom. Any ideas why this is happening?
I'm gonna move on to JW7.5 if there is no fix for this ThankX
Solution to camera lag:
After multiple factory resets and reinstalls I found out the solution.
The camera lag is caused by HTC Speak app update.
I don't know what link this has with the camera but number of people have reported it
So in order to fix this perform the following steps:
1-uninstall HTC Speak Update
2-force close camera app
3-restart the device
These steps worked for me.
Camera is working fine now and maybe a even snappier.

I am currently running CyanogenMod 11 (M3) for t-mobile. I really need help fixing my camera. I was having problems with my camera earlier but now it is constantly force closing. Just recently the camera updated to Google camera and I was hoping the force would not occur any more, but now it's even worse. If any ideas how to fix PLEASE tell me because I have many needs for the camera. This how the problem occurs: I try to take a picture and it will take it then it will freeze and I have to kill the app. Then I try to restart the app but I get an "Camera error: cannot connect to the camera." The problem was really bad after I flashed the ROM so I deleted that camera and flashed a "better" one. I try to use the other features of this updated Google camera but none of them work such as: lens blur, panorama or photo sphere . I would really love having these features working or even taking regular pictures without any force closes. I have to use the camera everyday so please help as soon as possible. Please anyone help me solve this problem!!!! (Current Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-T999)
Thanks for the help in advance!!!!
Go back to stock..
I tried the new Google camera on C-ROM and had the same problem. Like the previous poster said, go back to CM stock camera.

If you really want to stick with CM 11, maybe try flashing Ktoonsez's kernel. I've been having this camera issue (that's only temporarily fixed if I reboot) for a while, but yesterday I flashed KT747 and it's been working since (knock on wood).
Hi, did anyone had found a bug creating photospheres pictures with the Streetview app or orther, i have oxygen 3.1.3 and when i tried to create a photosphere the app just take 1 photo and does not allow me to continue taking the other photos, have someone tried it after the firmware update Oxygen 3.2.1?
The bug is still there with 3.2.1.
Have anyone tried in a custom rom?
I can confirm this bug with OOS 3.2.1
Seems to be fixed in 3.2.2 thankfully. Photospheres and panoramas are now quick and reliable. Google cam still doesn't show in the store but apk mirror to the rescue!

This is not working in 3.2.7, if it was ever fixed in 3.2.2. then it is broken again
I contacted support, they don't know how to solve it, don't say if this a known bug which they are planning to fix and just suggest to return the phone
This has been reported by me the day the phone came out. It hasn't been fixed and probably will never be. Haven't tried a custom rom. I think it has something the do with the bad camera drivers. Since snapchat also has issue and any other 3rd party app also is struggling a bit.
Its finally here! The first final release for Nougat 7.0
For now its through SPFT. If you want the OTA you'll have to wait until next month.

Enjoy!
OTA "is working" for me...
I have to download .zip file from UMI DIGI site copy to SD card and use "Local update" in phone update menu. No personal data will be removed.
Hi i am using version from october 20161017.
Must i first upgrade to 20161721 and then upgrade via SPFT to Nougat?
No need for that. Flash it from your current rom.

Because this is the first official version of Nougat the optimisation for Wakelocks isn't the best. Also when you upgrade to a totally new Android version you need a at least 3 charge cycles where you go from 100% to 5% before you charge your device up to 100% again. One thing I've done due to the poor Wakelock management is using greenify, it works even better if you have a rooted device.

The lens is not the software is bad. What about third party camera apps? Are they still black?

The dark camera issue has somewhat been resolved in third party apps. I noticed a bug that still persist using the selfie camera on snapchat, taking photos looks fine but if you try video recording the screen goes very dark like the previous dark camera issue.
If the poor camera was just down to software don't you think Umi would've fixed it already? I mean i had this phone since July 2016 and not much has changed. I never got this device for the camera though but for the reasonable hardware for a very cheap price.

Try Open camera app on play store. It stopped twitching of the picture. But it was dark. If it's not great!
Im not an expert but i think the problem is that they take the camera module from i.e. Samsung Galaxy s6 and some new processor from MediaTek and can't make them fully compatible...or something like that...
i am asking here because in the umi forums no one seems to be interested in responding to questions.
does anyone still has android 6 installed and rooted? i would need the apk: mtkquicksearchbox
this is the grey searchbox enabled on the homescreen by default. with this one you could search and find everything and i have no idea why i now have to cope with that bad google one.
Any root methods for Android 7.0 of UMi Super?

I have bad news for you. THe Mtkquicksearchbox doesn't work on Nougat 7. Before switching over i saved the APK and when i tried to install it after i upgraded from N6 to N7 the app just won't install.
I believe it has to do with something on the writing permissions on the system. Even after rooting my phone and giving rw permission in es file explorer it wouldn't work.
I prefer the mtk quicksearch over google and hope this might come back in a later software upgrade by Umi but i highly doubt they will put it back in future releases of N7, i could be wrong though.

thank you for this answer, i suspected something like this.
Sim Card Not Detected
I updated my Android Umi Super through the local method.
But now my simcards cannot be detected.
I have tried re-booting...cold boots, Airplane Mode On Off
Simcard removal... Another Local Install
Etc.
What Should I do.
Updated to the latest firmware, now I'm getting constant soft reboots...
Tried through local OTA and the soft reboots started. Redownloaded and managed to get it to flash through local OTA again in between soft reboots, no change. Full factory reset, no change.
Tried updating through SPTool, still getting the same soft reboots every minute or so.
Any ideas out there?
Pls so I shouldn't download the v7.01...... Again if there will be problem right.
Microphone not working well after update
Since my upgrade to android 7 on my UMI super I have found a few bugs:
1.) Banking app is not working any more
2.) When I do a video chat with my friends they can't hear me at all and mostly hear white noise. This is the same on skype, messenger, watsapp calling etc. This was not present in android 6. I have reset my phone and still both problems exist Anyway to revert back to android 6?
Have they fixed the crap/no gps lock issues??? Or is that just a pipe dream???
Hi I just upgraded officially my Samsung Galaxy S9 G960W One UI Major PROBLEMS is that:-
1: Whenever you open the camera app by double clicking power button and take instant snaps the camera does not stores any taken picture and simultaneously the camera app freezes and shows 'camera app failed'. Now the camera application is constantly showing this warning and freezes even though I try to open camera normally.
2: The new animations are sometimes fast and snappy just like previous ones but again I feel like these are new and not properly been tested and these animations stuck sometimes in 3rd party applications as INSTAGRAM, Whatsapp, Snap, etc. Honestly, I feel like about this One UI animations as I'm using some cheap 3rd party play store launcher.
Honestly, I want my old Samsung experience (UI) back it's because I never experienced any single problem with that one for 5 months of using this device.
Pros: 1: Experiencing one hour (approximately) improved battery life. 2: Better ram management 3: New animations feel little more snappy than the previous ones. 4: Better notification panel layout and scrolling down of apps for one hand usage.
Final verdict: One UI update desperately needs an update to fix this major camera issue.
I also updated to one ui in 16 january.
Camera and animations don't have any problem, battery life isn't very good, and I have few things here and there that Samsung should fix. I hope february update will fix all bugs and make One UI more stable...

Through none of the Pie betas has a camera problem like that been reported that I know of. I'm not sure your problem requires an update. Have you cleared the system cache since the uodate? That's something that's always recommended after or immediately before an uodate.
Yes I did cleared cachce right after the update.

Factory reset
Factory reset is not the solution for these problems and I didn't buy the premium product to keep doing factory resets.

Bro factory reset isn't the solution for everything, some people are finding even more bugs after resetting their device... These unnecessary corrupted files from the old software will likely be gone after clearing the cache.
I have a mobile that its version is China. With which I was having a lot of problems with Google services. So I have decided to put a ROM in it. The ROM that I have put is AncientOS that is in the xdadeveloppers forum. My mobile is a Realme X (RMX1901). The fact is that everything was perfect, I followed all the steps, and I was happy because everything was working perfectly but the front camera has stopped working like that from one day to the next without any sense. It has not taken any blow, nor has anything happened, the camera is retractable and it does the effect of opening but then the camera or any application that has a camera such as Instagram or WhatsApp does not work. I've tried other ROMs and it doesn't seem to work either. I do not know what to do, I am very lost and that is why I seek help in case it happened to you with another mobile and what I should do.
Any comments are welcome, thanks really
