[Q] Camera App Freezes on Click - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently after upgrading my CM7 version to the latest final build. The camera app hasn’t been able to take a picture. I would click the button to take a picture and then it just freezes the app and I have click home to get out of it.
Any Ideas on what might be causing this? I really don't want to have to wipe the phone as reinstalling and syncing everything takes too much time for me and I have finals coming up and can't have my phone not with all my info for more than a few hours due to a business I am setting up

Wipe only cache and reflash the ROM, that *might* do it.

Yup I agree. Also it might be a bad dl zip. If what duce posted doesn't work try just redownload the zip, do a full wipe, and flash away. Id also try reflashing your recovery it might help.

thanks guys, il try those and get back to you

Almost 100% Awake Time

Since I upgraded to DamageControl 2.09, I have been experiencing almost 100% awake time, and my "Sync" icon is constantly being displayed.
I didn't have this issue with 2.08, so I'm wondering what I can do to clear it up. Is anyone else having a similar issue?
Thanks in advance!

Is it unplugged from the wall/charger/computer? Have you stopped playing with it long enough to let it go to sleep?

Yep. I leave it sitting on the table most of the time... Seems like it's constantly trying to sync something, but I can't figure out what/why.
go into settings/applications/running processes. I bet obex service is running thanks to calendar and come.htc.bgp. If that's the case, killing that process is the only fix I've found. It's a bug in the Sprint 2.1 ROM upon which DC is based.

Odd, I'm running the same ROM and not getting this bug. Try wiping and reflashing. Don't install apps from backups. Install apps from scratch and only pick the ones you need first. I ran the ROM without any of the apps I like first and I've NEVER had this issue. Then I started adding apps directly from the market without using Titanium or any of the other backups. Worth a shot... for science, right?

Yeah, I decided to re-flash it last night, and it seems to be working fine now. uptime is about 15 hours, with awake at around 1.5 hours now. Much, much better.

Wow! Subcypher is right! I haven't used titanium backup since loading infinitex's deodexed sprint ROM and I have no problems with 100% awake time.

[miui gps fix]come on!! Let us test it!!!!!

hi everybody!!!
Firstly, thank you for wasting your time read my post which may not actually work for your device.
Ok, let's begin.I believe that I find a way to fix MIUI GPS problem. Maybe works for CM, but i haven't tested it.
It was all begin from I found a phenomenon that the first boot after I flashed a GPSfix.zip(download from MIUI.com), GPS would work perfectly, but the second time i booted, the third time i booted, GPS just broke down. So i thought that it was the script in the GPSfix.zip that made GPS work!!
Obviously, what I need to do is that to make sure the script runs every time I boot my phone. So I got an app "autostart.apk" for help. And then, I modified the script picked up from the GPSfix.zip.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALL INSTRUCTION
1. flash gpsfix.zip in cmw.
2. install autostart.apk, reboot your phone, and click yes when ask for root.
3. Put the autostart.sh to /data/opt (you have to create opt folder yourself),reboot
4. use angrygps.apk for settings(mebased,cold start,sulp.nokia.com,7275) and testing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECLAIMER
1. Also I would not be responsible for any problem caused.
2. I AM NOT a developer. I HAVEN'T STUDIED LINUX, NOT TO MENTION ANDROID. what i did is search on the Internet, holding the ethusiasm to MIUI. SO any suggestion is welcomed!!!!AND I hope a developer can carry on GPS fix job,cause I have no knowledge of android.
3. Sorry for my pooooooor english. BUT I think you can understand what i said.
4. I am not sure whether this way is suitable for you or not. If not, I am sorry. And I hope you can fight for MIUI GPS throughout, for you, for me, and for every Vibrant!

Strange, GPS has worked for me just fine on MIUI since 1.9.2. Sometimes GPS won't activate (satellite icon won't appear), but a reboot has always fixed it.
I was thinking the same thing. Ever since I've been using MIUI I have had a working GPS. I didn't know GPS was broken on MIUI.

Same exact issue I'm having with MiUi.
GPS fails to activate/engage(sat icon does not appear)... unless I reboot then GPS works.
Anyone know why, or a possible fix?

Every gpsd I've used in my own fix or any other fix seems to be really sensitive to lock-failures - if you back out of an app that's trying to get a fix, for some reason gps never comes back online.
If I can get a fix first thing, this seems to never happen.

I think you're right, that has been my experience as well.
Regardless, it's reassuring to hear I'm not alone!
To everyone who said there GPS has always worked on miui, has your navigation worked too? Because my phone knows where I am if I'm still but never moving.
And I have been on miui since they have said to have had working GPS and the only think that worked for me is the cm7 fix. Well until 1.5 came out.

I hope someone figues out a fix. I really hate rebooting to get GPS to work.
You know what also was working since last night. I downloaded ADVANCED TASK KILLER, and killed everything, and it had the same effect as rebooting. The built in task killer in miui does not have the same effect. This ATK trick was working up till about 10 mins ago when my GPS wouldn't come on no matter what! I was forced to reboot. Other than that the ATK trick worked. You know what else....I found going into App manager...finding the APP GPStest and clearing the user data for some reason has the same effect as rebooting also, makes GPS in Maps work.
Strange observations I know.

(UPDATE) WORKING AGAIN. Camera just stopped working (capitivating 4.2.2)

Hi I have been using the "captivating xperia 4.2.2 rom from sepphi for about 3 weeks and I first must say great work.
I just noticed today my camera has stopped working. Everytime i try to start the camera i get the error message" unfortanalty, the gallary has stopped" . Could anyone Tell me how to correct this? thanks in advance .
Update: I went ahead and ordered me another phone because i use the camera on my phone often, while waiting for the new phone to
arrive I thought I would give a complete erase and full install of 4.2.1 captivating one last try and what did it do but worked! LOL
It was like the 3rd or 4th try doing it the same way each time. Anyway just thought I would give the good news and thanks for everyone's help.:good: Since I have already ordered me a new phone I have this phone still listed on swappa.com for sale. see me sig for the link.

I get that sometimes on CyanogenMod 10.1. What I do is go to Settings>Applications, find the Gallery app, then press "Clear Data." That usually fixes the Gallery app until the next CM 10.1 update.

It was working great but then stated giving me this error when trying to open up
the camera app only, I can view the gallery photos still though.
UPDATE: I finally decided to try a full / clean install of another rom but still no luck.
The camera app will start but the shutter graphic never opens up and i hear a "click" sound

I got this error when I turned on the big mem setting without first going into the camera and changing the video quality to 480 instead of 720.....also if big mem setting is on, sometimes even after flashing a new rom big mem is still on.
Im not getting any updates needed via notifications or goo manager. I did a fresh complete delete n install of aocp 5 and hellybean lastest roms and still cant get the camera to work, very odd I must say. That being said Im totally lost on this one. I havent changed any of the memory settings that im aware of.Is it possible the camera has become defective for no reason or is it probably a software issue?

I'd say to try going back to stock KK4 at this point, test your camera, it it works, work your way back up to the ROM you wanna use. If it doesn't, it's probably hardware.

Was your phone already on 2.3 when you got it?? Otherwise, you should have Odin KK4 with bootloaders already.
Either way, here it is: http://hotfile.com/dl/137871658/d25...O_Bootloaders_Re-partition_Full_Wipe.zip.html
You'll need Corn kernel afterwards to get back on the ROM you want to use: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26710533&postcount=1

I mute the phone and when I try to start the camera It shows the camera app start(but the lens never opens on screen) but I still hear a "click" sound and then the app force closes with the error message. I have went back to the captivating 4.2.2 Rom by sephhi (my favorite for the cappy by far)and will just use the phone as is until I hear of a fix in the future. I will keep monitoring this thread if anyone finds a fix please advise asap. Thanks for everyones help.

Your reply isn't very clear. Did you go back to stock KK4 and try it and that gave you the black screen? If so, yes it is hardware related and we can't fix it for you, you'll need to have it repaired. (mobiletechvideos.com might be able to)

Anyone know how much cash I could get out of this phone if I sold it with captivating rom 4.2.2 installed on it without the camera working?
I may just sale it and purchase a new phone. Thanks:good:

Having a custom on it won't make it more valuable. Most people like to get them clean.
Also, they were around 60$ last time I checked, I dunno now.
If you're looking to sell, PM me
Re: [Q] Camera just stopped working (capitivating 4.2.2)
I wasn't saying because it has 4.2.2 its valued more. Just was wondering the value of the phone and was stating the current Rom(and by far the best IMO) installed on it. I just recently purchased this phone GSM Network unlocked for $160.00 locally. Thanks for everyones help:thumbup:
I will take $110.00 for the phone and take a loss. I'm not techy/smart enough to attempt to repair the camera myself LOL, if anyone is interested PM me.

Phone goes crazy when (I guess) overheated

Hi guys, I have annoying probnlem with my LG 4x... When I work little bit longer on my phone, it just starts to behave crazy. Screen starts to "touch himself" I just look at it and he starts to get in menus, opening pictures, closing apps, opening new ones... I just lock screen for 10 secs and than everything is fine for few minutes. Than same thing again. This happens with every ROM and every karnel I try til now. Works fine only with stock. I'm now on Beanstalk 4.4 and iodak 9.95. Thanks!!!

No worries, nothing out of the ordinary in the logs, its looking more like hardware(hopefully im wrong). It might be worth testing a stock rom under the same conditions again, if there is no issue, then theres something weird going on. btw 50c is fine temp for cpu, around 75c is the limit.
Can you get a screen recording of it? (most 4.4 based roms have this functionality built in) this could be helpful also https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ds.cpuoverlay

Please calm down and don't spam the forum with copy paste posts everywhere as it won't get you anywhere.
Regarding your problem, if you think LBL roms are better then why don't you stick with them as they are equivalent to UBL roms in every aspect. I am on MrSteve555 M12 and can say it is smooth as silk, so what's all the fuss about?

Never seen this lag in the slightest.
I also have lag in the menu in the ui. Maybe it is from my phone? It is a little noticeable lag. Phone is working alright with 4.3, but with 4.4 it sucks

Ive run PA, Omni, PAC and CM11 and none of them have lag on quick settings or settings once the ROMs 'settled in' which is usually a few hours after install when everythings run and updated and synced fully. Is this lag happening for you on a clean phone with minimal gapps and no other apps installed?

Ive run PA, Omni, PAC and CM11 and none of them have lag on quick settings or settings once the ROMs 'settled in' which is usually a few hours after install when everythings run and updated and synced fully. Is this lag happening for you on a clean phone with minimal gapps and no other apps installed?

Yes. I don't have any luck with phones. I am very sensitive to lag and I'm stuck with this phone 1 year more- good hardware- ****ty software. I like the phone, but no the software.

Use a small gapps package. It does wonders, as long as you do the following steps in the correct order:
1. Format /system.
2. Wipe data, cache and dalvik cache.
3. Install ROM.
4. Install Gapps.
5. Reboot and leave the phone alone for at least half an hour.
6. Run through set-up (if required)
7. Leave phone alone for another hour.
8. Enjoy.
Google Search seems to be a big problem for performance, even on Nexus phones. The easiest is to get a package which does not include it (Velvet.apk it is called, and it is found in /system/priv-app).
I recommend Paranoid Android's 'pico' gapps. Google it to find the post on XDA by TKruzze.

I use the same gapps. I have left the phone 1 day and I still see lag in ui and when pulling down notification drawer :crying: My old phone didn't lag that much and had twice as weaker specs :crying:

A month ago I had the same issue, but after using that formula it feels like a brand new phone now.

I really want a fast phone. The moto g is so fast and smooth, but my phone isn't even with any rom :crying: I can't do anything more. I tried everything and I gave up after 2 months and 50+ hours flashing roms and trying and trying different ways

I will do the formula you told me. I will flash stock .ftf then I won't boot the phone and I will flash williams kernel v7 just to get recovery. I will start the phone and go in to recovery. I will do the formula you told me with cm11 build by mr. Steve and I will hope the formula will work

I remember running LagFix off of the Google Play Store. Someone recommended it to me. What it does is it enables TRIM on your /system, /data, and /cache partition, which, in theory should work and improve performance two-fold. It applies to the SP, which uses NAND flash to store these partitions and therefore would suffer from the afore mentioned symptom.

Don't worry if the CyanogenMod set-up app is REALLY slow, crashes, or skips steps, it happens to everyone, because the cache rebuild hasn't begun yet.

Try MrSteve build, if it fails then I guess it's a hardware issue

I sort of think that it is all with your mind. If you like, would you share a video showing the "lag" you've mentioned in those mentioned areas (notification sliding lag, settings lag) if you are currently running CM11. I would like to actually see it.
I would like to see a video recording of your phone by using another camera, not a screen recording or cast directly from your ROM.
With your video, people will finally could see how the "lag" is and decide if it is the normal lag, or supposedly a problem of your phone.
About touch screen sensitivity, I was unable to find a thread about the same problem (the one before you started a solution thread). I've searched like mad through the General forum. It contains a build.prop modification fix. If you could get me a link to it, gosh I would appreciate it so much and will show you to the right direction

I will try the formula. If it doesn't work I will try to film a video. Maybe it is a hardware issue, because when installing apps wtih 4.3 rom phone laggs a lot and on 4.4 does the same, but the lag is much lower when installing apps

Have you tried LagFix yet? Run it and see what happens.
Plus don't use themes unless you wipe your cache afterwards: the theme modifies SystemUI.apk and therefore the cache file is incorrect.
