I dont think I dreamt it, but in a firmware I believe there was an option to tag the pictures taken with the camera with GPS coords.
I can not find how to turn it on nor if its available with CM 4.1.1, anybody got some idea?

I thought that was only certain software apps that did that such as Footprints.
it was in jf1.5 but i cant seem to find it in cm 4.0.4 so idk if it was a Google thing or what because cm used alot of htc stuff

wrong my friend! completely wrong! Dream and Magic also geo tag photos out of the box with the stock camera app, just switch it on from the settings.
i often geo tag photos of cool places to skate i see while im out, and then the Co-Pilot app has a menu that shows all your pictures that are geo tagged and it will take you there!

Well why don't you take a screen shot because for some reason in my settings it doesn't show it? Thank You
I don't have that option with CM 4.1. What rom are you on?
No one has that option it was like another thread was opened with some one saying something with the camera and then when we wanted proof they never showed it.
ok so ive hade my g1 for about almost a year now and the camera is really starting to piss me off.
when i first got the phone it was loaded with a dev phone mod from cyanogen 3.something i believe. anyways when i first got the phone and used the camera it had options for different settings, light filters (day,night, incandescent, fluorescent, etc) and pictures effects (B&W, sepia, etc). later i found this site, started updating rom files and changing themes and whatnot. ever since then the camera options went bye bye.
anyone know of a way to get these settings back? or anyone know of any apps that do the same thing?

Just about any camera app. And if you flashed cyanogen's rom right you wouldn't lose the camera app.
When I flashed to the newer version it didn't get rid of the camera app. The camera appis still there it just didn't have the same functionality it had before. The icon itself looked different and once loaded up the camera screen looked different. I no longer have the ability to change the settings like I did before. I was just wondering if anyone else had an issue with or what fixes there are without running a completely seperate app.
If there isn't a fix the app will work. Just seeing what's available option wise
Hi there. I just updatede my speedmod kernel from k12t to k12u. And after that apps like barcode scanner and goolge goggles doesnt work. But my camera første... any solutions?
Sent from the Galaxy
Same here, but I experienced this with former kernel too.
Switching back to other kernel didn't fix it.
So I don't think that this belong to the kernel itself.
I switched a lot forward and backward, like cam FW or cam- and barcodescanner-apps, SGS Tools with cam hack and so on but still no clue.
I'm now on Doc's ROM without any failure before JS3.
So, now the cam is working for taking pictures but as soon as I switch to video it FCs. Same with all scanner apps.
EDIT: switched several times between 12t und 12u and between that to hacked cam app (SGS Tools) ... and just right now its working again. so, absolutely no clue but waiting for next impact.
EDIT2: seems that others before had similar impact: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11036914&postcount=12152

Read from post#8059. It's the email.apk...
I formely switch to the new email.apk from Galaxy Tab and I can enforce same issue again and again when using the new email.apk.
it doesn't occur with old 2.2.1 email.apk.
Someone need to teach Google and Samsung the idea of "Modular".

You are the Man!!! Restored the stock email and everything is working again.
Thank you just saves me from a full reinstall

Pst... let me tell you a secret... I did this 9 times.
To be honest: there was a slight feeling that it could be the email.apk because I switched that many times too - but I tought that it is too idiotic to talk about.
So, your request helped me too because before I wasn't searching seriously.

Everytime I try to use the front facing camera on my Droid 3 it says "unable to intialize" and I have to power off the phone to reset the camera. I've found lots of people that have had the same problem (why didn't I find these posts BEFORE I bought the phone??) but I've not found any solutions.
I have not made any modifications to the phone. It is not rooted. It says my system is up to date.
Is there anyway to fix this?
Thank you for any help I can get. I am beyond frustrated
Factory reset? Probably a software problem.

Tried that (more than once, just to be sure). No luck.
Any other suggestions?
Which version of software do you have? Go to Settings, and go to the bottom and tap that and look at the version (post a screenshot or picture so we can tell).

It is System Version 5.7.906.XT862, Android Version 2.3.4
(Sorry for no screenshot,I tried a handful of screenshot apps and didn't have any luck with any of them working right.)
I have the same problem with minomoto
Do you have any third-party apps that use the ff camera? For example, have you installed any anti-theft security apps installed that may be set to use the camera if somebody has stolen the phone? Is it possible that one of those running in the background is not releasing the camera for other apps?

I didn't install anything like that and I don't think any of the bloatware has anything like.
This same issue suddenly struck my Droid 3 a week ago. I'm running stock .906, rooted, most Verizon bloat removed. Never had an issue with any camera apps accessing front or back cameras, then suddenly my front camera either shows black or won't initialize. I searched the web pretty extensively, but haven't found any definite fix. I've tried clearing the system cache and deleting the camera app's data with no result. I'm hoping to avoid a hard reset if possible, as I hate having to set everything up again, and by the reports I've seen it's only helped a few people.
You could create another ROM slot and try that from Safestrap. But it might be the hardware going pfffftt.
I know some others have had the same issue I believe they had to sbf. If nothing else if the issue survives an sbf you will know it's hardware

Problem seems to have shown up after Google+ apps started to populate phone.

Just checked and no problem, the stock camera app opens and is ready in less than a second. The current rom I have on my (originally) at&t model is the korean open 409N also.
Maybe check the lg sites for a newer (or even older) version of the camera app? If it's not the app, and everything is pretty much stock, it may unfortunately be a hardware issue...
Hello, any reference where and what exactly firmware I needed? I mean I am fine on downgrading to pie but didn't know the process of doing it. Btw here's the image of my version of my V40

I think you've misunderstood. I'm not suggesting you change the firmware (I have the exact same firmware you do (well I have 30d and u have 30e - a security update), and no problem with camera app).
I was suggesting you try a different version of the CAMERA APP. LG makes changes to the camera app and makes the *.apk available to download, you'll have to search for LG camera app to find it.
It does seem very unusual you'd be experiencing such a lag when opening the camera app though. You'd almost have to bet that something else you've installed (not stock) that is causing the delay.

Well, in the interest of helping you narrow it down, I can tell you I just used lgup to install the latest korean open kdz (the one you're on, 30e). My camera app opens as it always has with other roms, in less than a second.
so, anyway, I think you can rule out it being anything to do with the specific rom...

thank you currently downgraded to pie but seems the problem exist. It's a camera hardware fault.
I had a verizon V40 and the camera went to crap with the A10 upgrade. Viewfinder was laggy, very similar to what you describe. Also, I think it was telephoto that would show parallel lines across any bright \ white objects. This was a stock rom, stock cam app, and the problem continued after multiple factory resets. Found it hard to believe it was a hardware issue, as it happened immediately after the A10 upgrade. I second year promised the phone...while I did get a brand new phone, it was the US unlocked version. So, as you know, that means no advanced calling (video) within the verizon dialer app and no vvmail.
Found that this GCam mod works. Install the app, then copy the XML (you have to remove the ".txt" at the end, xda wont let me upload it otherwise) to "/internal storage/GCam/Configs/" (make the folders) and then open the app, double-tap the black space to the right of the shutter button, then choose "restore". The app should then work perfectly, with all the cameras available, and no lag in the viewfinder.
hello the problem is solved by replacing the camera. its a hardware fault
