Hi,
I have recently flashed a new ROM onto my SMT700 which was mostly successful however I am having a problem where the camera freezes as soon as the call starts. I am also unable to take live photos using the app. No other app is having this problem. I have tried using older versions of the messenger app and that seems to have fixed the issue with live photos however the video call problem is still there. I have tried reflashing the ROM and even downgrading to a 6.0 ROM (current is a 7.0) but nothing has fixed this issue. I cannot go back to stock since my backup is broken (I cannot see any partition options in twrp when attempting to restore) so I am currently stuck with this problem. I am also unable to download the stock firmware as every browser I have keeps failing to download it from ant site (SamMobile etc). Any help would be appreciated

Hello!
I recently updated to 4.3 and rooted the device using Odin, however the default camera app is no longer responding - it gives me the following error message: "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped working".
Things I've done to try and fix it:
1- cleaned cache and data but that didn't solve the problem.
2- also reset the device to factory through settings but it didn't work either
3- re-install camera.apk (wouldn't install using Titanium)
4- install new stock camera from 4.3 rom (installed but got the same message)
5- manually replaced the files for the camera (system/app/SamsungCamera.apk and SamsungCamera.odex) AND Gallery (SecGallery2013.apk and SecGallery2013.apk) with new ones
Issue still persists...
Any ideas? Pls help.
Thanks!
if you're using xpose mod and wanam update to the latest wanam.

Thanks but it didn't work.
I got it solved today thou in an unexpected way by actually using the Back up feature within ROM Manager - the phone went into back up mode (like recovery mode where you see the little android robot and command lines), waited until the back up process was finished then rebooted without choosing the option to "fix possible root loss" warning. After that camera was finally back again.
Then I recalled that the last time I've done this back up through Rom Manager there was some sort of problem during the process which interrupted it so I realize now that somehow it affected the camera (have no idea how they relate thou) - but the fact is that as soon as it successfully finished the back up the issue was automatically fixed. Weird, stupid and very rare, I know... At least is fixed!

Not to thread jack, but do you have the apk for the stock camera app from 4.3? Thanks in advance
I've had exactly this same problem. Do I have to run a backup to fix it?

Hi! After upgrading to 4.4.2 the Facebook application fails and closes automatically delete data and tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the same thing keeps happening to me, this is the case I want to go back to 4.2.2 for me but working again I left it in a permanent reboot ... no solution yet ...
I have not installed Facebook onto my tablet. I will do so to see if there are any changes I can do to make it work with my kitkat CAGrom. However, most likely you may want to send feedback to facebook, which can be done on their main website for desktops. It may be an issue for all intel devices on kit kat. I am not sure.
As for the SD-card notification. It is part of what samsung put in. So on the stock firmware it will always be present. restl3ss has worked on the fix for pimpdroid and I am doing the same for CAGrom.

I don't think it is the rom that's the problem. I have same problem with Facebook to and I have stock 4.2.2 on P5220. It's the last updates from Facebook that's the problem I think.

Hmmm, I have a p5220 and recently flashed the KitKat stock rom cleaned up and rooted by Restl3ss. Facebook works fine. But Gallery force closes. I use Quickpic so it doesn't bother me.

Now is working fine, without any problem. I don't know exactly what happened, probably it was an update, but now functioning normally. I did not look to see when was the last update.

I have a known camera issue in which I cannot solve.
My camera does not work. Any app that tries to get to the camera fails.
I know that is not an hardware issue because on stock ROM the camera works.
Crash report:
java.lang.RuntimeException: startPreview failed
at android.hardware.Camera.startPreview(Native Method)

NOTES ַ& UPDATES
- I updated my firmware to NE4 so I cant install CM11
- I noticed that on CWM recovery its asks to ROOT my phone if I dont have one. This ROOT makes to phone to not detect the camera even on stock ROM.
- I used S3Rx_UCUFNE4_AROMA_11-9-14 to install the stock ROM. The camera wont work until I removed the KNOX app.
- I have tried to install ROM cm-10.2.1-d2att_for_NE4 and its the same problem
- Installing different kernels make my phone stuck on bootloop.
- The camera worked for one time only on CM10 after enabling " temp unroot" and than remove it in superuser app. But after this its not working.
Here is that things that I have tried:
- I checked to camera with no SD card so that gallery is empty.
- I updated my firmware from UCUFNE4 to UCUFNE4.
- I have installed different camera apps.

IDEAS
I think that the problem is with the kernel or something with the ROOT.
Any room expect the stock one have broken camera.
I WILL GIVE BIG DONATION TO THE ONE WHO WILL SOLVE THIS ISSUE
There is a corrupt image or video file in your gallery that is preventing the camera from connecting. Look in your gallery for any recent files that just show a black square for their thumbnail and then delete them.
After that, clear data for your camera app and maybe even restart your phone just to be safe. It should work.

Have you tried to revert all OS updates and flash original stock with odin and then root and install cm11 ?
Sent from my LG-D802
I tried various of the recommended fixes , nothing worked for me, but installing the nexus camera from the google play somehow fixed the problem and my camera works again
While updating/installing apps from the google playstore, the phone will crash and bootloop, and requires a full reinstall to get it working normally. I've attached 2 logcat files for both roms which give the same problem - Mokee5.1, CM13 on a clean installation with pico gapps and manually selecting several apps to install. One other custom rom also gave the same problem so I didn't bother trying any other custom roms. Reverting back to stock MIUIv8 gave no issues.
CM13 used to be mostly problem free until a few months ago I think when the update/install issue started happening. The playstore auto update is normally kept disabled on my phone so I'm unaware about when the problem really started happening.
Edit-
It doesn't seem to be happening anymore from a short test after flashing my CM13 backup but I've moved on to LO14.1
It may have something to do with some other complaints that people are having. It looks like some issue with Cynogenmod since Sept/Oct 2017 which needs some patching.

Can confirm the issue with CM13 on my Galaxy S3. Unfortunately, I do not know a solution. Just stick to older app versions.
Hi.
I have gt-i8190n version, with latest stock rom 4.1.2 with root.
There is a problem i would like to have your help. It concerns with youtube app, after it updates to latest version for android 4.1.2 it opens and start working ok. but when i close the app and later on open again, it shows me a message saind that there it a newer version for youtube app, and to update. When i try to update, clicking the button, it opens google play store, but no updates are avaiable.
The only way i can work around is going to settings, clear app data, and it works again normally like the first time. But after the 1st use (closing and opening app), it cames back the message to update again.
Is there any way to overcome this permantly (not updating android, stock rom works very nice for daily use, comparing to alternate roms like lineaageos (tried CM 13.0 - android 6.0.1 during one or 2 months it has several random reboots and lagging... and no NFC).
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
