It seems like a few days ago when I was putting in picture frames on my home screen then, now, I tried to shoot more photos and the screen would go blank and then revert to the home screen. The same thing happens with Gallery, but Camcorder still works, saving videos and everything.
It also seemed odd that my Google Maps stopped working, so I had to uninstall what I had in here and install 3.3.1.
I'm using TheOfficial's 2.6.29 with the AOSP-1.6_r1.4-DRD20_v2.3.2. I kind of hate to wipe if there is just an easier way to fix it, if it even DOES fix it.

Hi,
as you can read in the headline I have a problem with the main camera app on my unrooted Sgs (Froyo 2.2 through Kies). Every time I take a picture with one of the special camera features (panorama, coupling shot, etc) it starts the process and everything goes.fine until it tries to show the results but it just shows the last taken picture of the standard setting.
However when I restart my phone all the pictures I did are there, even in the right order.
I think either the camera app are the gallery app are broken or even something else.
I tried to replace both apps with SGS-tools from the market but nothing happens (I think I need root for that?).
Other file browsers aren't showing the pictures too.
Anyone else having the problem?
Is it possible to temporary root my phone with z4root to replace the apps and unroot again or wouldn't you recommend that?
Thank you a lot.

Edit: it seems I can access the pictures through the file browser but it takes a looooong lag before finally showing them in the gallery app and it only shows them in poor quality (panorama pictures are pixelated like hell ) until I restart.
Its so weird since I don't have any problems when shooting in standard mode.

Yes, another camera thread.
First off, my camera seems a bit sluggish, like it pauses when I tap the gallery pictures, or settings.
Second off, when I exit camera, the screen like, re sizes itself, I have it in "8mp mode"
Does anyone else experience this?
I use Camera360 (free version) instead of the stock camera, but it tends to behave strangely as well... This may be completely unrelated since you're most likely referring to the stock camera. Anyhow, the camera will go to a black screen after I've taken a few pics and I'll have to close the app before the viewfinder will fully function again.

My camera360 does that too. I think the screen is funny there cause its not formatted for the qHD yet. The camera issue, I think is a update Camera360 needs, cause on my GFs Captivate, it doesn't have that problem.
Hey guys,
I am using a rooted droid bionic with only programs on the approved list frozen.
When in the stock camera app, it now defaults to landscape mode, and will not change as I rotate the camera. It causes pictures to now appear as if I was intending to take them with the camera sideways, so I have to rotate them often to make them correct.
Rebooting doesn't fix the issue, and the problem seems to now persist when in skype (sending me turned on the side with front camera), and potentially google talk (I haven't tested yet). I would think it was related to frozen applications, but it just started happening a week ago.
Any tips or ideas to help would be great, let me know if you need anything more from me.
Thanks,
Cobalt
Play around with your resolution settings. I had a similar issue with the camcorder and found that unless I use 720 or 1080 resolution it always messes with the orientation. The Camera also has an option to use HD (6MP to fit the screen). I find using that is better then setting it to 8MP which messes around with orientation at times.

Tried. Didn't seem to affect anything. Both changing the picture resolution and the camcorder record setting, nothing happened.
On the other hand, I tried the fastboot and FXZ recovery method, and it seems to have worked, to some extent? It now correctly registers the orientation change when saving the pictures, but still does not rotate the icons when using the camera app. As an added bonus, it left all my accounts/programs intact, and just flashed the system files.
Technically fixed, I guess?
Yesterday I rooted my phone and after a day of use everything seems normal except that I've just noticed that I've only got two modes in the camera app. Where there were previously several options in the camera mode selections (the square icon with four circles) screen including Zoe and Video, now I only have two Camera and Selfie.
Also, when I take a picture the app crashes immediately after taking a picture. The little icon with the last picture taken that takes you to your photos is also missing. The google camera app works perfectly as far as I have tested, but I really like the zoe camera.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?
Fix it, somehow
I haven't extensively tested this, but in case someone else makes their way to this thread with a similar problem I have found a solution.
I installed the apk of the HTC Camera app. Someone in the Verizon M8 forum posted it here:

For a while now, I haven't been able to zoom in/out properly using camera apps that I've found on the app store (particularly Z Camera and Camera360). The problem is that when these camera apps are open, the image you see does not zoom. So if I pinched zoomed (or even used the volume keys to zoom), the live view you see does not zoom. However, once you actually take a picture, then the zoom actually shows up. Here's an example to hopefully clarify the problem:
Using the Camera360 app, I pinch zoom to 8x but don't take the picture yet. The live picture view on my screen stays at 1x even though I zoomed to 8x. Then, I take the picture and when I view/open it, the image is truly zoomed in to 8x.
As you can probably guess, this issue is a bit frustrating since you can't really tell how much you've zoomed in/out until after you take the picture. The strange thing is that the stock camera app works perfectly (no zoom problems).
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 Active-i537. This problem existed when I had UCUAMF3 (4.2.2) as my firmware. I've done a factory reset, and that didn't solve the issue. I just installed UCUCNE3 (4.4.2) in hopes of fixing the problem, but that also hasn't helped.
Any ideas as to what's causing this issue and how to fix it?
