Looked at the sticky, but did not see this issue. It was happening on my cyan builds once I went to donut. I swapped, updated all, wipe, install per instructions, but the prob found me again. This time I am not the official 1.6(DRC83, 2.22.19.26I) Anyone else have this happen to them?
Fixes?
Okay, so the time ranges between 30 seconds and a minute.
From what I am seeing, I may have to revert back to stock settings and give it a go. If that works, then I will attempt to ROOT again.
I only began having this issue after I upgraded to 1.6 via cyanogen.
I swapped ROMs hoping to solve the issue ( thought it may have been b/c of the experimental/beta version)
But after being on this build for one day, I am already experiencing the issue again. I even went as far as repartitioning and wiping before I started so it would be a clean slate.
ljnick19, this is an interesting problem. What call settings are enabled for you when this happens?

I have made zero changes to the standard setup there. All is normal. I have not fully customized since I applied the ROM b/c of time constraints. Just getting basic apps back on from the market.

The HTC recovery may have messed your radio up. Try reflashing the radio.
Thanks for the input! I was worried no would have any ideas. I'll give that a shot. Now when reflashing the radio, do I need to do the whole-radio, spl, rom, wipe thing? Or just radio?
I am also using Ra v1.2.2 recovery, could that be causing issues w/ 1.6, Donut ROMs?
One more issue to add: AdvancedLauncher (processandroid.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. FC almost every time i press the home button. Made the mistake of making advanced launcher my default home button action...
For the launcher make sure you have the latest version. Then reinstall or run fix permissions. U only have to flash the radio, and the recovery should only affect flashing the roms
Thanks a mill for the help, I really thought this was going to fall flat. I'll attempt later this afternoon and post results.
For those of you that took a moment to not only read, but to assist, THANK YOU!
Results are:
I went from OTA 1.6 to Cyan 4.1.999
I wiped and repartitioned the sd as well as redoing the radio
So far, I have not experienced any FC's. Unfortunately, I have not made a lot of calls either. Crazy thing was that on the OTA build today, calls seemed to be functioning, but the FC's were excessive.
I also ran fix permissions as well as cleared the dalvik cache.
Again, thanks for the support. I hope to pass it on if I am ever able to help, it is appreciated!

I just rooted my Nexus yesterday to Cyans mod. I ve rooted before (tons of ROMS on my G1) so Im not a complete noobie. The ROM runs absolutely perfect and smooth EXCEPT for when I try to record video. Every time, and I do mean every time I try to record a video, the phone freezes for like 3 secs, and then reboots.
Camera shoots photos fine, and this is the only problem I have, but it is becoming a problem, considering I just bought the phone I searched the forms for this problem, and used multiple search strings and found no results.
Has anyone ran into this problem, and if so have you found a fix for it?
**MODS..I deeply apologize if this is in the wrong section.I worked a 10 hour shift and am half asleep while writing this. Please feel free to move if you see fit**
**EDIT..ok..NOT COOL...I just tried to watch a video, and that also no longer works. Anyone know of a fix for this?
Same issue here. Meh...
Ended up switching to Froyo. Hope Cyanogen keeps up.

If you've flashed the 'Froyo' radio then you'll have to downgrade it before video will work, or move (back) to Froyo.
If you haven't changed radio then I have no idea!
same here. the test video i took when i got the (ph)one was amazing quality so i'm looking forward to this working again!
If you guys were EVER on Froyo. It updated your radio. If you then went back to CM builds, you will need to downgrade your radio to the eclair radios in order for the camcorder to work properly.
The phone hasnt been on Froyo (that I know of), so thats not causing my problem. I tried to flash the prerelease before I was rooted, but it was US only and didnt work. I didnt however update my radio when I flashed to Cyan, but I was told this wasnt causing the problem. At this point, anything to get my cam and videos working again!
Would be awesome if Cyan, the man himself, could hook us up with a fix or some advice on this one!

if you attempted to flash the froyo stock update, it included the new radio. its very possible that it successfully flashed your radio, but failed to install the froyo ROM. you can easily check if you have the new radio by going into your settings and checking the baseband version. i bet you are on the new froyo radio, which is known to break video with all 2.1 ROM's. and vice versa, the old radio breaks camcorder on 2.2 ROMs.
so each time you jump between a 2.1 and 2.2 ROM, you have to flash the associated radio as well.
GOOD POINT BRO. I will check this now...
**EDIT** that was it..I must have went to Froyo radio unknowingly. I flashed the stock Nexus radio, and vids and video recording are now working just fine.
Hope this thread helps the others. I foolishly searched "cant record videos" and found nothing, when I should have searched "cant play videos", as there are many threads on that one.
Again, thanks for your help!! Didnt expect a solution so quickly!!
It also seemed to give me 3g problems when I just flashed back, but I ll deal with that one tomorrow after work
Same issue
I have a n1 with 5.0.7.1 and my phone also reboots upon trying to launch the camcorder feature. I'm going to try out the new 5.0.8 test3 with 720p hack add-on and see how that goes.

Any luck? I recently upgraded to CyanogenMod 5.0.8 and immediately after updating I noticed the change. I can watch videos in Gallery just fine, but trying to record (or open Settings) in the camcorder mode causes the phone to hang and then reboot.
I never once tried to get anywhere near Froyo. I'm still waiting for CM6. Any advice on how to restore video functionality? Should I downgrade to the previous version of CyanogenMod? Is that even possible?
As I said, I highly doubt this is a Froyo issue, but it's clearly related to upgrading to CM 5.0.8.

So, to be perfectly clear, did you or did you not update your radio before flashing 5.0.8?

I am not aware of ever having modified any "radio" functionality on my Nexus One. I bought the phone retail at the beginning of May, so it had stock 2.1. About a week later I flashed via USB to whatever version of CyanogenMod was current then. (I'm sorry and embarrassed I can't be more specific.) Everything worked flawlessly.
Then about three days ago, I downloaded the CyanogenMod Updater app from the Marketplace and used that to move to CM 5.0.8. I also performed a backup with Titanium, from which I restored after updating to CM 5.0.8. Since this was done, I my phone freezes and reboots whenever I try to record video. I mentioned the Titanium backup because perhaps the Restore System Data feature resulted in broken settings. But I do recall seeing "720p video" in the changelog to CM 5.0.8, so I'm guessing that's probably the culprit.
I don't understand how the radio would be affecting my camera, but I'm willing to try anything. If we assume that somehow the CM update did change my radio settings, how would I go about correcting that? Should I just wait for CM6, or is this radio problem likely to persist if I don't address it specifically? Is regressing to an earlier version of CM an option?

D'oh. This was clearly it. Because I got CM 5.0.8 via the CyanogenMod Updater app, I did not see that I was supposed to update the radio to Froyo independently of installing CM.
I tracked down the radio image (the Full Update Guide has all the info, for any interested persons) and flashed with that, and sure enough, I know have smooth 720p video recording.
Thank you so much for bluntly and persistently calling my attention to the radio image issue. I'm going to go back to playing with my favorite toy now. =)
Hello, I have a weird issue, like the camera is split the image, like the left side is on the right and the right to the left seperated with a black row. also the color is switching to purple, pink.
I'm running on the last stable cyanogen (6.1)
and last radio (5.12),
also I tried pershoot kernel and wildmonks, other than the stock cyanogen kernel
I also try to wipe, data, cache, davlik,
fix permissions, erase camera cache
nothing worked.
here a video of what i'm talking about :
youtube.com/watch?v=cqCXUFNM9QM (sorry bc it's my first post I can't make it playable from here)
the video was recorded in 720p but also happening in camera or any other quality.
I tried to see if it wasn't a hardware issue by reinstalling the stock android 2.2.1 and it hasn't happend. I really don't understand why i'm getting this and it's look like i'm the only one to having this.
the only thing that I have not tried is to downgrade the radio, but I don't know if the issue is coming from the radio...
Thanks!
Hi all,
I've been unable to find a post about this for quite some time so I decided to make a threat about it.
I have a recurring problem with my captivate. Usually after about 2 weeks of using a ROM my phone will have 2 issues pop up simultaneously. They seem to always happen together. It seems to happen after my phone shuts off and will not turn back on until I battery pull. Once I do that I am presented with these two issues:
1.) When I try and toggle Wifi it attempts to then simply says "error" underneath it. I have found a few threads about this but no answers
2.) Upon installation OR restoration of any app with Titanium Backup my phone does a soft reboot (goes to spinning CM logo or for ICS goes to the multicolored squares flying around).
Edit: On the newest MIUI it now says "insufficient storage available" instead of rebooting when I try to install an app after the issues crop up, wifi "error" is still the same
I've had these same 2 issues occur with CM7 Stable, RC, and many nightlies, MIUI, and TeamHacksung's ICS build. I believe it may have happened with cognition too but am not positive.
I do not restore any data with TB. Before each flash I wipe system, cache, dalvik, and do factory reset and still this issue occurs without fail after about 2 weeks on any ROM and the only fix I have is to flash a new one.
Nandroid backups DO fix the problem. If anyone is willing to look through logs or something and see what was different I would be eternally grateful and certainly send you something through PayPal
Any help is greatly appreciated and I am willing to try anything at this point. Thanks!
Sorry for the double post,
Is there a better forum to post this in?

Nah this is the right place. That's a very strange problem you're having though, and I don't know what the exact solution is, if there even is one for this. The only thing I can suggest is going back to stock, and then reinstalling CM7 or whatever you want

Thanks,
Well happened again on newest MIUI. Gonna go back to stock and start over. I'll update the thread if it does or does not happen again.
Unfortunately after using Odin to go back to stock and rerooting/flashing it happened again on the most current build of MIUI. I'm currently at a loss for what to do. Has anyone heard of or seen anything like this?
Thanks in advance

Just curious, have you tried leaving it stock and seeing if it happens on a pure stock ROM? If so it could be a defect with the phone?
If you flash back to pure stock and the issue doesn't come back, maybe try a custom ROM that's closer to stock, not a CM or MIUI or ICS build. I haven't seen this issue, just trying to suggest some solutions.
I had this same problem with my fascinate. I flashed 1.10.21 MIUI follwed by glitch 13.1. This combination used to work, or so I thought. I flashed back to stock, 1.12.1 then a different package of glitch 13.1 and my wifi started working again. I know the captivates and fascinates are somewhat different, but try this out and see if it works.

I guess I could try that, I just like CM7/MIUI so much. Another thing that happens is many different applications start FCing after the problems all begin.
I tried to restore to a nandroid backup I had made before it happened this time and I received an MD5 mismatch which I believe happened last time I tried to restore...
New info:
I have not realized this before but it seems that I start getting a message that says, "Google Talk Authentication Failed", around the same time. Also FCs happen much more frequently. Is there anything I could be doing to cause this?
New Info
Just going to keep this updated with things I have tried in case anyone ever searches for this that has this issue:
Full format of SD card and odin back to stock did not prevent the issue from cropping up on the DarkKnight3 ROM with Icy Glitch. At this point I can only assume it is somehow hardware relatedl
This phone is driving me crazy. I haven't seen this issue reported by anyone else before, so I'll try to sum it up:
I have a Galaxy Mini, with CM 7.1 RC1 installed, which I can no longer update or replace its ROM, no matter what ROM I install(I've already tried CM7.2, Andro-ID and every other ROM that I could get my paws on, it's hopeless; CM9 also seems to work, but it's so buggy, it's unusable), the microphone won't work anymore, even after clearing everything and fixing the permissions, I have to revert to CM 7.1., which is the only release which has a halfway working microphone implementation(it's buggy, to say the least, people just barely hear what I'm saying). There is a patch for libaudio which suposedly fixes the mic, but after installing it, ceases working, so I always have to revert to my CM7.1 Nandroid backup. I would install the vanilla Gingerbread again, because everything was working fine on that, but there is one small issue...the data cable broke not too long ago, so I'm stuck with only a MicroSD card reader, which is not of much help, because I can't flash it with Odin and, as this will be sold next week(the buyer asked me to reflash it with the original firmware), I'm not willing to buy a new one for it either.
My biggest mistake was that I forgot backup the original firmware, which might have been the simplest solution for this problem, so I'd be very grateful if someone could kindly dump and upload his/hers stock ROM backup from cwm, so I can try to restore it and finally get the mic working again. Also, if you know any other solution that might fit in this scenario, I'm willing to try anything.
