CWM zip fix for Front Facing Camera? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Apart from going back to JS8, is there anyone has a fix for the front facing camera orientation or is there a custom rom that fixes it? I'm getting desperate...
Using Fring video test call, the received video is upside down. Tango and Qik are effected too. I'm getting corrupt video recordings from the FFC using Qik.

damain posted a fix and several rom makers ported it over to their roms as fixes and updates

I've been looking for an update or kernel but am a bit of a newbie as regards custom roms etc. Is it possible just to apply a camera fix on the stock JVH ? I do have cf-root.

Have not found a fix for this yet. Is it a gingerbread bug or is it just galaxy s owners are having this issue?

+1, I was using Damians's JVH kernel and his CWM fix worked great. Not sure if it will work with CFroot, most likely not.

Camera not working

Hi, i've got a litte problem.
After flashing my Milestone my camera is not working. I've got a screen but when i am pressing button then my phone got a black screen and I have to remove battery. I don't have this problem with FroYo G.O.T., only with Mods and roms from Brazil. Can anyone help me with my problem?

Same problem, with camera screen bluring... I've read that it's regard to the kernel, but I've made a rollback to 2.1, and still with problems, any idea?
Ovitz, it would probably be of massive help if you said what ROM you've flashed...
I have Iceandfire CM7, i can't make a movie but i cant make a photo. My camera is fully working with Froyo G.O.T. and stock 2.1
If you go to the CM7 site it says in the list of bugs using the side button for the camera "unleashes hell" I suggest you have a read through the rest of the bug list

[Q] Problem Galaxy S i9000

Hi all!
I have a problem with my Galaxy S i9000. Audio recording isn't working in video camera, recorder and third part apps but i can do a call normally! the problem is born when i changed the stock rom (Froyo) with another one (custom) and is still not working with all roms except MIUI or cyanogenmod 7.1! but i want to install a ICS Rom. what can i do for solving this problem?
thanks
P.s. now i installed CM9 and i want to keep it!
P.p.s. i'm sorry if I have done some grammatical errors!
Hi, is the bug you described still the same now that you are using CM9? And which version of Cm9 are you using?build 17 now replaced by nightly builds , if you are on the latest nightly you should post a bug report (attaching relevant info as asked for in opening post) in the developer post.

as you said you directly come from froyo to ics..............ffirst you have to flash gingerbread version XXJVU...............then go to ics…...……...this is the right way to flash ics rom.......by doing this your problem will be short out.
i'm sorry, maybe i'm not explained so well.
I changed Froyo with a stock Gingerbread and i had problems with recording...after this i flashed another custom gingerbread rom and i had the same problem...so i tried a MIUI rom! with this ROM everything is working fine (the same with CM7) but now i installed CM9 Nightly (ICS) and the problem is came back... it's a strange problem...
p.s. when i flash a rom i ALWAYS do a full wipe.

Strange camera problem

Whenever I flash a custom ROM from stock eclair, the camera just doesn't work half the time. The camera app would open and it would just be a blank viewfinder. I found that closing and reopening the camera like 3 or 4 times fixes it temporarily. When I leave the phone sitting for a while and try to open the camera, it always opens with the blank viewfinder.
I tried searching about this but I guess it isn't a common issue at all, so if anyone can offer any advice I'd appreciate it

Well this really depends on the ROM you are flashing when coming from Eclair, which ROM did you try, and which kernel with that?
Well, I was on Team Hacksung's ICS build 17(icy glitch v14 b6), AOKP(same kernel), Doc's Master(the kernel that came with it), and Slim ICS 3.1(the kernel that came with it). I also tried a custom gingerbread ROM which I can't remember the name of atm.

OK, I think the problem is that all of the roms you've been flashing are ics builds and all of the ics builds for the galaxy s are ported at the moment, and because they are ported they don't always work. So my guess is that your camera doesn't work because of your ics builds, why don't you try a ROM built for captivate like fasty ROM or darky ROM or even cyanogenmod7?

I actually have tried cm7 but the camera would not open at all with that one.

None of the CM build are made for the captivate, try a rom built from stock and see if the issue happens on that. Maybe try legend rom from crt it is a very good rom based off of stock kk4.

I've tried flashing legend but that got me into a bootloop. I have successfully flashed Simply Stock, but I had the same camera issue.
This was a while ago, but I remember having camera problems as soon as I got the official gingerbread update from froyo. If I remember correctly the camera would always force close as soon as I opened it.
you must have a hardware problem.
camera works fine on ICS for the past 2 months at least. nothing but bad advice in this thread. i am running AOKP right now. used camera today.. used it now.. it works.
cm camera works fine, cm IS built for captivate, or in those thoughts... CM isnt built for any phone..??..
Well, I should also make it clear that the camera always seems to open with no problems on stock eclair or froyo, so yeah... it's a pretty strange case. I don't really want to trade everything else great about ICS and go back to froyo because of my ocd lol.

That's kind of what i meant lol its not a stock build.

Um, so is it unlikely I'll ever be able to fix this issue then?
Had same problem with every ICS rom I've tried. Seems camera only works with LCD density set to 220, at least on my phone. Check if it makes a difference on your phone. Under Settings > ROM Control> General UI> LCD Density

Dear Friends,
It's more than 1 year that I rooted my Nexus one and Installed a custom rom. After that when I'm going to use my video cam, I see "Forse Close". I tried many many roms and apps, but any app which is going to use video cam lead to "Force-Close". the photo camera wonderfully works normally in any roms/apps!!
Is there anybody can help me? thanx

1st what rom are you using
2nd what have you tired to fix it
3rd ask the person who made your rom or in that thread
If i help ((( HIT THANKS ))) today is my 420 b-day LONG LIVE FREEDOM
Did you try restore the image back to the previous rom and try to reinstall the trouble rom again?
Video worked fine for me in CM7.1 and CM7.2, both of which are Gingerbread. It also worked on Froyo.
Video is known not to work on the early ICS firmwares.
I did but video cam still not working

[Q] camera failed, downgrade to 2.2

Hi good afternoon,
I have red some forums for my SGT p1000, but never found answer to my question.
I have tried several ROM (4.04, 4.1.1) but still can't find the one with good camera. While opening the camera, it always crashed "Camera not responding". Also, tried some application from Google Play as advised in other forums but they still failed. stucked at camera initialising"
I also restocked using Overcome safe method.. tried the camera, and it also indcates "Camera failed".. I am not sure what have happened since I came from 2.2 ROM wiith the camera working flawlessly.
Can someone give me an instruction on how to downgrade to 2.2 and link to official 2.2 ROMs..
Thanks and really appreciate if someone could help
why don't you just use the overcome gb stock safe method that you used before.
it will be an official GB JQ1 rom.
why must it be a 2.2 ?
Edit: didn't read that you said overcome stock safe also has camera failed.
strange.

no, it's not just sound but the camera won't open.. that's why I want to try 2.2 to check if my camera app would be fine.
BTW, what JellyBean ROM are you using?
I'm using SCH-I800 (gtab verizon) and I'm stuck with camera not working. Error : camera has stopped.
I'm tried 2 rom : cm 9.1 p1c and aokp milestone 6.
Anyone got issue same me?
MDP issues
Could MDP issues crash camera hardware??
Could changing ROM from an MDP to a non-MDP crash the camera drivers??
hope anyone could clear things.. thanks in advance

I've had the same type of problem on my vzw tab. I played around with CM9 and the app would crash if using the flash. Right now I'm on an unofficial "beta kang" gb 2.3.5 ROM and the camera almost completely works, except it crashes if I try to use the front camera in video mode. (The front camera works for snapshots, and it works in other apps like Skype). The stock roms seem to be the only ones that have a 100 percent correct working camera. There are rooted stock roms out there, so I'd suggest one of those.
