I have the at&t tilt with wm 6.1 installed from manufacturer. When I enter camer mode I can see all menus but where the preview should be, it is black, when I take a picture it displays an error. Have never flashed or modded anything. I tried to resolve the problem by using different camer cabs, didn't fix anything. It is covered by warrenty but don't think it is anything I shouldn't be able to fix. Anything help would be great!
Thanks,

Did u try to make a hard reset?
I would also download the latest update from htc and install it if the hard reset does not work, but fair warning if you do end up doing that you should back all your data up because it will clear it out....
Yes I tired a hard reset, a soft reset and a "hardware reset" as recommened by HTC. Still nothing....
Also I have already went to the HTC went, typed in all of my S/n number and everything and it said i have the latest version of everything.
Hi,
I've also the same problem.
I've loaded WinMob 6.1 update from HTC.com. Now the camera is black
But when i take a photo, it works - only the live-preview is dead!
Someone knows a solution?

I had the same problem. I found an camera cab on here and it fixed it. Search for 'HTCCamera 5.04.29195.00'. It might not work for everyone but it worked for me when my preview disappeared.
Hi,
thanks for your message!
I've searched for the cab, but i haven't found something like this.
The cab is only included in some ROMs - is it possible to download without a complete ROM? Do you have a link?
/Edit: yeah, the cam is now working! I've done an video call and since then the cam is working perfectly!
This could be the solution...

I have the same problem yesterday after tweaking the hide sim contact and activate the burst & sport mode for camera. However, not too sure if the above tweaks was the caused.
Did a hard reset and its back to normal.
I have the same problem since yesterday night onwards. Didn't do any tweak or change of setting. This just happened out of nothing. Anyone can solve the problem? (other than doing a hard reset).

did you happen to install CE Star on the phone?
I did but it was about 3 weeks ago and the phone was ok.
I believe the issue lies with it. If you have not register your copy of CE Star, this might happen. To verify this, uninstall CE Star and see if the problem goes away.
its is CEStar issue. pls register your CEstar.
Registered and solved. Thank you!
Thanks......I have solved mine too......Well done !!
I am having the strangest problem. Everytime I turn my phone off and on again the dialer starts up along with the wifi settings. On top of that none of the buttons work except the middle directional pad, power and camra button. I have no idea what is wrong. One day everything is fine then the next its not. Any help will be appreciated.
Hard Reset
I just reflashed and the problem is still there. Except now instead of the wifi setting I get the ringtone creation tool and it creates a new dogbark midi file everytime I turn my phone on and off.
Any help? I have reflashed 3 times now.
If you've done a hard reset and it still does it, it's pretty much a hardware fault by definition. Return to vendor!

Not true at all. If you were to flash to another ROM, I'm prtty sure it'd be gone. It's more than likely a softare related issue and check your start-up folder to see what it has there.
I was, perhaps incorrectly, assuming the OP was on original ROM as he didn't detail what he had changed to
I was on L26 diamond V4 when it started up. Then I flashed to V9....then I restored all my settings and rom back to the original ATT and I am getting a new replacement phone today lol Thanks to everyone who responded.

My Kaiser has been acting up since today morning.
The buttons/keyboard wont work and the voice recording program will start automatically and create files for every 4-8 seconds back to back.
I'm running Dutty's Dual touch ROM.
I reinstalled it and it worked perfectly fine for few hours until when i started txt messaging again....
any suggestions

Are you performing a hard reset after the rom installation?
Also what applications have you installed?
Next time post this in the thread where the rom is, try to stick to forum rules
Also what do you mean your keyboard is broken? Is it simply not functioning at all or are you typing a sentence and " it cmes out lke tis"
oops thanks, I'll post it in that thread. Basically I've been using it for good 5 months and no other applications have been installed.
Keyboard is not broken...the send/end/email/windows start buttons wont work...only the touch screen works.
and yes i hard reset it after the installation
seems like the problem is not with custom rom/firmware and its with the phone in general.
I'm now running stock firmware and the butons still dont work and it acts weird as soon as i turn on (example - goes to phone mode and dials EDFC, and then opens voice recording and starts recording small clips for every 4-6 seconds until i bring it complete stop)

Sounds like one of your buttons is stuck. Maybe try dusting the button area with canister air duster? Hope you don't have to do defective exchange, but that might be in the cards.

If i read you correctly, reinstalling the OS fixed it temporarily right? Maybe you got a corrupted file download and should redownload it again? It seems odd to me that the buttons would work short term after a reinstall.
Also , you can try other roms aside from Dutty's ( while his certainly is nice ) there are many alternatives. Pick one that has the radio included just to make sure you dont have some sort of firmware corruption. Also update Hard-SPL to the newest here.
Just a few things you could try

Yea I tried that too, but now it just wouldn't work...I formatted the memory car but i couldn't format the device, i called HTC and they asked me to send it in and they will take a look at it and said will fix it. I have to return everything back to stock and see how it goes.
Thanks guys
hey guys, not sure whats going on, but my tilt lately keeps freezing, but it only freezes when i go into landscape mode. i've ran the same programs for a long time (palringo, google maps, live search, kaiser tweak and srs wow) i'm not even running skyfire anymore, and i've uninstalled my opera browser but it keeps freeze. i've done some reflashes and hardware resets, and only ran the above programs, and it still ends up freezing when i put it into landscape. Anyone know what could be causing this? it doesn't matter if im typing landscape in notes, palringo, PIE or anything else, always freezes. The ironic thing is that if i bust out my stylus and type w/ that using the soft keyboard it seems to run just fine (but slows me down A LOT). any help would be much appreciated.
Do you mean your hardware keyboard lags?
If so in software is a speedup keyboard .cab.

no its not a keyboard lag by any means, the phone literally freezes. i dont even have to type when its in lanscape mode for it to freeze, as soon as the screen changes orientation it freezes immediately

Thanks for clarification, just that you say soon as use onscreen keyboard no issue, are you using a stock ROM? Does it happen on a clean flash no programs installed?

sorry, i should have given a lot more info, but i had to jet to class. Anyways, its not the stock rom, i'm running NATF's Lite rom (no TF3D). I actually downloaded originally around september/nov/dec of 08 (dont remember, but its been months that i've been running it). And never had a problem with it...now all of a sudden it seriously craps out everytime i run it. I tried running Hyperdragons IV Lite and i was experiencing some of the same problems. I'm really starting to think its one of the problems i'm running, so i'm going to to a hard reset (again) and see if it runs just palringo, and google maps w/out any problems. its just getting super frustrating to be honest. i'm running the exact same programs that i've ran for the last year, but now its deciding to act up. hopefully its something in the software and not hardware
ok...so i got home, and installed the OEM att tilt rom. really, no matter what program i install, pretty much anything. the freezing occurs. any out there familiar w/ cell phone hardware? i'm thinking that might be the cause, if so...do you think there's anything that can be done/replaced to fix it?
Hi, this started happening to my just today also! At first I thought it was the onscreen keyboard that made my phone freeze (as I have seen others with the same issue) and thought I could fix it by using another keyboard app. I used SPB's keyboard and it prevents my phone from freezing and I'm able to type things using it. BUT my phone STILL freezes when I put it in landscape mode and try to type something. It freezes after typing a couple of letters. This is stock ROM; I've never flashed it.
Is there a .dll I can use to repair or anything of the sort?
Btw, I'm using a Tilt. Thanks!
anyone have any method ..to prevent this problem???
I find that if restart the phone few times will freeze at gray screen .."the original HTC gray blank screen with loading box in the middle" but the antenna reception green light is normal blinking (all the button not functioning).... -solution have to press reset button below ...
so now everytime install new program very scare to restart .. if un lucky ..will stuck at that screen.... really wonder why ...is it the WM6.1 not stable???
I use motorola linux ..no such problem...

Try the relevant ROM thread also look at your hardSPL version. Some users have fewer freezing probs just by updating hardSPL.

Not at all, there's definitely something wrong with your setup if it wont even boot fully. Maybe a hard reset and some testing between installing each individual program will weed out the culprit. That said I've found (at least the HTC official) WM 6.0 ROMs to be much more reliable and stable than WM 6.1 ROMs.

Not as such - hardSPL is made by dedicated folks who have customised the OEM version but installing it will mean you no longer have an 'official' setup. That said, you can always revert to the official HTC SPL if needed for eg a warranty return. You could also install a newer HTC SPL for your ROM (as long as it's compatible *be careful about this* - eg I'm using the 1.93 HTC SPL with my ROM instead of the 1.56 SPL). This is all explained in the Kaiser wiki (through the xda-wiki button above) so it's well worth having a good read there
aaaahh I looked around. and I can't find a driver to reinstall for the hardware keyboard... I'm assuming this would fix it~
Sorry to double post but I just wanted to say I fixed the problem by backing up and restoring with SKTools after doing a hard reset. It makes me think, what exactly caused the problem in the first place if doing this fixes it? Is there anything that SKTools leaves behind in an All System backup? Perhaps something messed with my registry causing the keyboard to freeze the phone when used.
I'd hate to think my phone can actually get spyware now. Maybe Skyfire's true desktop viewing of webpages allows for this to happen?
Let me know what you guys think
" used Spb's keyboard and it prevents my phone from freezing and I'm able to type things using it. BUT my phone STILL freezes when I put it in landscape mode and try to type something. It freezes after typing a couple of letters. This is stock ROM; I've never flashed it."
If I will you to avoid ...uninstall this soft keyboard ... use back the original keyboard at the time being and see... if u restore back what is the diff compare to now ... If I not wrong still the same ...
FYI, I got this freezing problem is after I have install PCM kb 0.14 ...then I try install & uninstall & install ..and need to restart the phone ..2 out of 4 time is freeze at loading screen .. now really worry is it b'cos I uninstall it at the same time have remove certain original files .....
WM is diff with windows ...lack of tool to chk which system files damage .... I really hate hard reset ..just like computer... imagine keep format the hard disk ....

If only restoring a full size PC was as easy and quick as hard restting. Sure there's a little work involved in reinstalling apps after completing the hard reset but if the apps are well designed ones that install via activesync, that's as easy as going to Activesyncs add and remove programs function and ticking a box. If this is not available then maybe the old app is the cause of the problem?
A hard reset every now and again is very useful for maintaining peak performance and it certainly weeds out whether a problem is hardware or software related pretty quickly.
I updated to the ROM on HTC's website under software download. Now, I have distorted colors after a soft reset. Hard resets don't fix it either. The only fix that works SOMETIMES is if you put the PPC to sleep via the power button & then wake it back up. This sometimes resolves the issue. All 3rd party apps worked fine on the previous (shipped) ROM & I haven't changed anything. Before this msg, I tried all the avenues in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3638336#post3638336
although it's more or less for the newbs, which clearly I don't consider myself to be, lol. Hmmmmm............. Any clues? Thanks in advance
I had this same problem, but it was caused by trying to use a 1.56HSPL rom with a 1.14 HSPL. Once I flashed the 1.56, worked like a charm
Tried it both ways, bro. I was unsuccesfull everytime. Believe it or not, I would prefer a little screen that pops up & says "DENIED!" At least I would know that it didn't work. Lol, thanks for the reply, though.
Did you get this sorted out yet? If not PM me and I'll help you over AIM/MSN.
