my phone camera suddenly stopped working after flashing to dutty rom v4.
i dont use the camera that much. but i went to use it yesterday and i got the following error
"Unable to capture photo. Unable to get frame data from camera device"
i have tried to hard reset and i have flashed to aztor x rom. but it doesnt seem to have fixed it. is this a hardware fault or software. i have also downgraded my radio version. the only thing i can think of is..it might be the hardspl version im using which is 1.93
its a mda compact IV.
hope someone can help
regards
anyone can help
try changing you radio, that should sort it
iv tried that.. ive tried several radios
ive installed many different roms. everything is working fine except for the damn camera
patr!k's solution from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2643794&postcount=12 worked for me.
It might apply if you use Advanced Config. Check your "Encode photos in portrait mode" setting. I actually had to set mine to "No" which is not the default. Strangely enough, it seems like the option is programmed to the opposite of what it says.
didnt work. thanks for your reply

Hey everyone ..
i was using my Blueangel normaly and so happy with it until i faced this problem before 2 days ..
I was texting my gf while i was out and kept on even though the battry gave me a warrny that its really low .. i ignored and kept SMS's her until it went off.
i went home charged my device but its not connecting to the network. it shows either "No Service" (where it shows X beside the signal tower) or "Searching" (where it shows ! beside the signal tower).
Please anyone knows how to turn it on im really in a bad situation here.
Note: just to let you know im using WM5 Hemi's rom and upgraded it today to Xplode's rom just hoping it would help.
Well when i tried another sim on my blueangel it worked and my sim card on another mobile it worked also. im really losing my brain
44 views no one have a slight idea..
anyways thanks alot everyone for visiting
Hi,
All I can suggest is to re-install radio rom! prob 1.15.
If not that then ensure flight mode is NOT active, and battery's fully charged
Also when you reset BA, on first screen does the R show a none?
If so reset, twice, its a common problem with BA and WM5, it isn't able to intialise the radio rom before WM5 boots.
It seems wierd that another sim worked on your BA, must be a faulty/damaged sim.
I also note you've tried the non-working sim on another phone and that works! Wierd that too!
Hope that helps,
Sunny
Have you tried to manually select the network in the "Phone" settings screen? I've heard of similiar problems being fixed by that.
well after i asked here and there and got disappointed with I-Mate people.. they know nothing at all
an IT in my company told me the problem is with my sim card. its damaged cause of the change in the battry power (as he says) it damaged the frequency that my mobile use to read the sim so there for it would work on any mobile except mine.
so i would change the sim but it needs me ages to get free and do that.
THANKS ALOT TO EVERYONE ATLEAST READ MY THREAD OR TRIED TO HELP
YOU GUYS HERE ARE THE BEST
By the way
sunny: the Radio is already 1.15 from ages. but thanks alot for trying to help me.
Fraser: I tried to manualy select the network but it says there is no network which is funny cause there is 4 networks in my area.. actuly im working with the same operator so im inside the tower LOL. the signal streth is the best here.
Thanks alot mates
No problem!
Thats what we're here for!
Regards
Same problem
I once had the same problem. Now I'm no genius when it comes to these phones and it actually took me a whole week to get an idea of what the hell happened to my phone. Basically, these phones are Quad Band (GSM 850/900/1800/1900) and for some reason after I upgraded I lost my signal. I found a little application that let me reselect my band (its not built into windows for some reason) and that solved my problem. I just selected "Auto select" and the problem was solved after a soft reset.
Now, I can not remember what that application was but maybe that can give you an idea of what to search for.
No Service issue

Hi, is there more 'democratic' way to resolve this issue than reseting BA twice?
After installation of xplode's R4 for noobs an old version of R 1.06 was left on BA. Thinking that this was a reason for No Service of the phone I dumped latest R , but double f..reseting necessity still persists ...
Is that a normal thing to reset twice such an advanced device when you want even just to call smbdy? Thanks
there is a lil bug in my roms, after totally draining both bateries when you power it on it says NONE for radio you have to soft reset it again in order to work. I have never had a band selection problem but it is possible reason for this

Hi hi there! First of all please accept my deepest appreciation for such a great work you have done to make us - PPC ordinary users - little bit more happy Just one small note - is it possible to upgrade your downlodable R4 file with all necessary ROMs - Radio, etc., etc. With the intention that every Noob trying to upgrade his/her BA, should do it in a push of one button - not searching for separate latest ROMs and HowTo instructions? Thanks for your time!
P.s. Sorry it seems came out little bit off topic....
well it is possible but i have no time to do it. or you can try to copy the radio nbf file into the folder of the nk.nbf and run the upgrade utility
Any solution on this matter ? I am using Helmi MW6 ROM with radio 1.15.00 and i'm having the same problem.
I've searched the forum but found no solution yet.

Is your sound working OK?
If not, then it's definately a wrong RADIO ROM.

Wow, that was helpful...NOT!
I'd try a second HR to see if that cures it. I try to make sure that I always do a HR after installing the ROM, don't know why but it does seem to help.
i had that problem with a tilt that was flashed to a kaiser rom. camera wouldn't start...just lagged and no feed came through using dutty's No5 rom. his No5 version for the tilt(or whatever number it was) got the camera to work but no gprs connection. his No6 rom has all things go.
only a few had the same problem so it went unexplained, so just flash around. good luck, as i don't really have a better answer as i was in the same boat
Same problem here camera is just black and laggs like heck
I havent checked my sound yet because as I said I havent unlocked the SIM yet, still waiting on the code but everything else works great. I dont really need the cam buti have it there so its hard to ignore it. Ill try what you guys recomment and will post back. thanks guys

What's wrong with my post?
When you have a Kaiser with the latest ROM and latest RADIO ROM, your camera and sound will work. However, when you flash a (cooked) HTC ROM you have to downgrade your RADIO ROM. If you don't, your sound and CAMERA will not work!
hmm interesting, i have to wait till i get it unlocked to test the sound (you are talking about calling sound and not just keyboard/ ringtones, etc right? how do i downgrade my radio rom? can you please point me out to a link and to which one i should be downgrade it to.
hmmm, i just checked and i do not have sound so i think that its the radio rom. dammit, i knew it wasnt going to be that easy. Gotta find a way to downgrade my radio rom now, any help is appreciated
johan had the right answer, it was indeed the radio rom, changed my radio rom and it is working flawlessly. thank you guys alot for your help! Love the damn phone
It's the radio
you need to tune in the right station with the right radio j/k... just download other or posibly NIKI radios works great!
Sorry for my English.
Hi, got a very big problem with my Kaiser - Vario3. Bought it from UK by e-bay. There was (maby) original T-mobile ROM. When I`ve done all settings correct and tried to connect, the display backlight have flashed to maximum, but Kaiser was still working, but without data connections. I`ve tried many 6.0 and 6.1 ROMs with many radios and everyone freezes it. Display backlight turns on max and freeze. Hard reset solves nothing, after entering PIN, freezes. But without turning on phone part of Kaiser is all OK. Only one ROM, which is able to make Kaiser useable, is T-mobile ROM ...but no data connection, if I try to start data, display backlight turns on max and Kaiser is freezed.
Anybody able to help?
Hardware dead?
...pls.

What you need to do is read the kaiser WIKI as unfortunatley it isnt as easy as just flashing a ROM you need to install hard SPL, and unlock it first. All of the information to sort the problem can be found in the WIKI
I`m not greenhorn. I`ve got hard SPL etc. I`ve read lot of wikis, forum threads. But nothing helps me to solve my problem. So...?
If this is happening with every ROM you install then I would think that it may be a bad sector on the phone causing this in which case the seller has sold you faulty goods
I think so. I`m waiting for PayPal result, I sent my problem there. But I still hope, that is possible to solve this with software tools too. So if anybody has the same problem, and has solved it, I hear (read) you.
Or developers with any great idea? It seems like any T-mobile branding problem, because phone is useable only with T-mobile ROM, with any other ROM just as PDA without phone.
...?
Hi guys, thanks for looking in at my problem.
I decided to move away from N95 for the greener pastures of an MDA, of which i had previously had a Vario, and liked the basics of it, anyway,
I have a T-Mobile Compact IV (Diamond -Diam200) with original shipped ROM
ROM: 1.37.110.3
Radio 1.00.25.03
I was wanting to increase battery time (cute coming from an N95 i know), reduce battery heating prob, speed up and 'fix' some of the little bugs on it.
So i followed guides and instruction from the guys on here and things were going so well.
First off i used the unsigned HardSPL, which worked as instructed.
Then i flashed it to RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
This worked, but had an issue such that I could receive messages, but got the dreaded "Your text message cannot be sent."
And when i tried to check settings for text/voice messages it constantly said 'cant connect try later.'
So, hope your still with me here and havent dropped off,
I tried, in this order, but still the same error.
Diamond_Radio_1.00.25.08
SwiftBL-WWE-Diamond-v7-0-Full-12MbPP -good rom btw
RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
Neither solved my problem, so i re-flashed back to original ROM, found on here also. Now I can text happily again, no error.
What am i doing wrong?
UPDATE:
it would seem as though only Radio 25.03 works for me with any of the excellent cooked ROMs.
Anyone shed any light on why? and has this any known major deficits ie battery power, etc?
Thanks
I got my mdac4 on Thursday and found that the stock rom was quite slow and pug ugly! So rather than rebrand the touch pro I installed the Swiftblade rom and ended up with a nice fast device but no sound at all and I had problems sending texts. So I then installed the panosha rom and 08 radio and very nice it is!
thanks Stunno, found the fault, it was my dated SIM, got a new one today and dutifully upgraded to 25.05.
Job done. Good times
Hi all, had my Kaiser a while now and have been using a few different ROMs in this time which have all worked great! The last ROM I used was HyperDragon III. It worked fine for a few days, then started playing up massively. It intermittantly works - Some times I won't receive anything for 3-4 hours, then receive loads of texts and missed calls at once.
T-mobile checked the network, etc. and everything was fine. Re-flashed it back to the original ROM from on here (T-Mobile UK) and it's still playing up the same!
When I put my SIM in a different phone, it works perfectly.
What else can I do/try? I *think* I flashed back to the right radio too but not 100% sure. How do I check what radio/rom versions are currently on the phone?
Thanks!
Radio version can be found @ bootup R: , remeber that the recomended radio may not apply to you as there region specific, so the best bet is to look @ people sigs in your area and see what radio they are using?
Your in the UK try 1.70.19.09 on cooked ROM it's what i always use
R:1.27.15.32
G 22.51.88.13h
D 156.00.00
That's what I got on startup.
For some reason too, when I restart the phone, before it comes to that screen it shows the Hyper Dragon screen first!
I'll try a different radio and ROM then I'm worried it's not a fault with the actual phone..
never mind, advice already given
Well I've upgraded to 1.70.19.09 Radio and Anryl Ultimate Release 3.
Phone seems alright after 20 minutes, but it'll need a few days of testing.
It's not looking good so far - I've just soft-reset my phone and it set the time back to 13:32.. Which certainly isn't the time! It was doing this before when it wasn't working properly too.
This ROM seems incredibly buggy too! Opera keeps closing itself, as well as a few other programs.. randomly!
Help please! I'm frustrated.

Some times if you don't do a hard reset right after flashing successfully, before the phone set up, things will act buggy. Make sure you do the hard reset.

This should do the trick. I think the recent Hyperdragon Roms are WM6.1 and the radio you had listed is for WM6.0. This can cause all sorts of hangs/volume problems etc. Also check which SPL version you have - A WM6.0 SPL can also cause hangs etc if used on a WM6.1 rom.
EDIT: sorry, only read the radio bit of the fix.
Make sure you get rom/radio and SPL all matched ie WM6.0 or WM6,1. Most of the latest roms are WM6.1. If you find Anryls rom buggy, just try another one - I love the Garmin series.
Thanks for the advice How would I check which SPL I'm on?
Unfortunately I've hard reset it with Anryl and still running terribly. Lost the network this morning too so I received a text a few hours late.
I think I'm just going to go with a ROM that's as lite as possible now!
Sorted - I've upgraded to Hard SPL 3.28 and I'll flash the ROM to something lighter. Thanks guys
It appears to be working fine except I'm still having the problem of it changing the time!
Just checked the phone and it's saying 16:50.. Although half an hour ago it read the correct time. Any ideas?
I'm using Galarm 1.4 if it makes a difference. Running Athine Lite now.
Sorry everyone - Phone still isn't working properly. On the correct SPL, correct radio and correct ROM.. done a hard reset.. And it still just keeps losing network! Think my phone might be broken in some way?
I *assume* it's under warranty.. I got it under a year ago, but got it due to an insurance claim of my Hermes, they replaced it with a Kaiser.
When I phoned T-Mobile, they said although I got it from the t-mobile store, I'd need to speak to my Insurance company.
BUT I'd need to put it back to standard for Warranty purposes! I've no idea what I'd need to go back to..
thanks everyone
bump - anyone?
