Camera problem GingerDX v006 - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone.
I'm a frequent visitor of the forum, but only today I've sign up because of this problem with GingerDX v006.
Everytime I use the camera, phone crashes and reboot. I've already made full wipe and still the same.
Before this Rom I was using XGin 5.4 with no problem using camera.
If someone can help, I would apreciate.

I can write you only this.For me work all fin in GingerDX006.I did full factory and used backup from titanum.Only camera button did´nt work in launcher pre.I switch to Xperia active launcher and all was working fine.

Thanks for your reply, but I've already made a factory reset and it still reboot when use camera. I don't know if that has something to do with launcher pro, but I can try to change it.
Any kind of help are welcome, because I'm really enjoying this rom.

V6 doesn't have any important update for me so I'm still in V5 and camera works fine. 3 MP. If you don't mind, downgrade to V5 and wait for other update. If DX knows about this bug, I bet he'll fix it.

I do´nt know,but now for me all works fine on006 on Launcher Pro.Camerra 3Mp and work all bottoms.I instal it via Xrecovery and with fullwipe.That´s all.

I encountered no issues with the camera app itself in v006, or in v005 for that matter. Others have reported the same, so it would seem that your problem is unique to your particular phone, sadly. I would suggest either waiting for v007 or downloading the v006 zip file again (in case of some DL corruption).

I've already tested with v005 and still the same. I can use the camera to take pictures, but when exit the app, crash and reboot (sometines can exit, but when enter again, same problem).
Probably it's like <Twinsen> said, and it must be something with my phone that causes this crash with GingerDX. I'll wait for v007 and if stills the same, I'll return to XGin 5.4.
Thank you all for your answers and help.

Try to download and flash it again.
Because for me, camera is working.

For sure you use a different camera app, am I right? When you try a camera app instead of the one included in the ROM. You will experience force close. Try to reboot then use the Default Camera.

Just a shot in the dark, but are you overclocking the phone?

This problem happens when using default camera and with no overclock. It's really weird...
I'll try v007 and see what happens.
Thanks.

[Q] [ROM] [team cooper] MIUI GB RC2 discussion

Anyone facing issues with random auto restart while using this Rom
I need a solution for this..
It worked fine for me, however I never got the google sync to work. You should make sure that no scripts are installed and check your performance settings. (Smartav2 with max 806 and min 245 are most stable settings)

Yes, I came to know about the google sync issues by reading the development forum for this rom. I am ok with that part as its not a full version rom..
but I cant understand why it keeps auto restarting my phone?? really annoying on such an awesome rom.
And ya, wish you could explain how to make sure no scripts are installed....
yeah ,

Known bug if you have apps installed on SD Card. Just wait for the final release because the MIUI is currently on RC2 meaning it still has bugs. It's currently functional and beautiful now. You just have to cope up to the small bugs you encounter.
MIUI launcher eat too much ram, go to option-launcher setting untick high quality grapics and icon shadow for better performance. if you use darktremor try to move data to sd, i've using for 3 days and never had random reboot.
Well I don't get that prob but restart is because the ace is out of memory....(RAM)
My prob is that I can't ecept calls only call other pepz com.android.phone crashes
I've tried
wiping data,bat,delvik,cach
Flashing gb from odin then flash miui
installing other phone apk's from other cm7's (flashing it from recovery)
chansing to all the baseband's possbile (including ddkq8)

2 what should I chanse it if tried 120dpi and ofcorce stock 160
Some glitches
Luv the visuals in this ROM
Bt there are a few glitches as well and maybe i think the dev must be currently working on that too..
Here are some of them:
There is a major lag time when u rotate the phone (auto-rotate time is quite large)
Many a times when trying to remove SD..phone restarts
Custom themes have problem on the lockscreens (full view is not visible)
Bootanimation doesnt change at all...
The best thing i like about this ROM is that u can select as many no. of recipients for sending messages..a huge like
And several of other ROMs have that smiley in place of [Enter] button..but this one is perfect
Though i wud like the dev to add the feature of replying to contacts directly from call log
Anyways, hats off to the dev for building a gud ROM!!

[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.

Camera problem, help needed plz

Since I did a factory reset?! on this phone ages ago, only the front camera works.
I've 3 file flashed back to GB etc, can't get it to work. Does someone have a link to the camera firmware for me to flash please, or any ideas as to what the problem may be?
Thanks

You can find firmware here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
These are also possible problems:
1) Your default camera.apk has an issue -- Try another camera app, such as fxcamera, camera 360, etc
2) Do you have other apps that use the camera? Like mirror or flashlight apps or something? It might be interferring. Actually it could be other apps interfearing too. I'd make a back-up and start uninstalling suspicious apps.
3) It could also be also a hw problem. Hopefully not.
Good luck!

It can't be the camera .apk or rogue app because its like that with different ROMs. I've got 3 fresh nandroid backups on my SD... Newest helly bean, newest x-bean, and my usual slim 2.7, and its the same with them all.. and I 3 file flashed GB and that made no difference either..
So I think like u say it could be a hardware problem, hope not... But I've got a feeling its the camera firmware. I've never regged with sammobile, cos its got one of those captcha things that I can't do by phone, so I never knew they had the camera firmware..
Going to register and try that, and I'll report back..

Registered for sammobile, but I can't find any camera firmware. I'm sure I've read somewhere that there is such a thing..
So unfortunately I'm still stuck until I find out if camera firmware does exist.. I'm sure I was told that a while ago there was an update camera firmware setting in the camera options in an old version of GB.
Or is there files or a folder in root that I could try overwriting with someone else who has a working cameras version????
Thx..
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
Hmm I also just looked for it and I couldn't find it either.
Google search didn't even give me 1 proper hit. So I'm suspicious if there is a specific firmware update for camera.
Interestingly I could find it for S3.
Kies should detect any needed firmware upgrades. Have you tried?
http://www.samsung.com/ca/consumer/mobile/mobile-phones/smartphones/GT-I9000HKABMC-support
Good idea, something I've never ever used is kies. Definitely worth a shot, but I've got a feeling I'm gonna have to flash GB again before it will want to play :-/
Gotta be tried though so I'll need to do it. Failing that I think I'll buy a new camera module, just in case it is hardware...

Although it was not possible to adjust this, it is still a bug that nobody could solve completely, some ROM can still shoot, but always with a problem such as the Slim Bean (here is the problem and the audio quality of the footage is still bad )
One more thing, could post the link of ICS Camera that you downloaded?

I have the CM10.1 Nightly ROM on my P970 V20j and the camera works great for taking pictures. Recording videos works "ok". It records a little jumpy (lower frame rate) for some reason. Can play back the videos without issues.
I should also add that the first few times I ran the camera (either taking pictures or videos) it caused several "force-close" and even caused it to reboot into recovery a couple times. Since then, it has worked fine without causing force-close, accept for the lower frame-rate video recording I mentioned.

I am on v20q rom with v30c baseband (cm10 installed over) installed by smart flash tool, now if I was to change the rom and baseband do you think it'll work?
Suppose it's worth a try seems though I will do a nandroid backup before I try
Oh I just realized v20j is either Canada or China and I'm in United Kingdom would this make a difference?

lol thank you, well I will try it on my own back if it goes wrong it's my own fault ^^ but I know I can just revert back to my original phone state from a nandroid backup if you don't what that is it's basically Clock work mod based recovery which backup the entire phone everything setting etc... the only thing it didn't revert back the last time I did it was the base band lol so I just re flashed only the base band and it doesn't wipe so the phone was back to normal

Yeah, I've been using titanium backup which has worked well so far.
Be warned, CM10.1 Nightly is not without it's own glitches... Certain apps require being moved to the internal memory so they don't get uninstalled when ever the phone re-boots.
I'm still searching for the most stable 4.2.2 ROM for the Black. Seems there are a few up now that might be worth trying out (Pacman and Mackay ROM's)...
I am happy with CM10.1 and thank those here on Xda who worked hard on it to get it working as smoothly as it does. :good: I don't really have any issues with it, other than some minor things.
Just an update on my previous post:
Recording video would still cause FC and then reboot (occasionally into recovery).
Flashed the latest Mackay 4.2.2 ROM (v2.7.6) yesterday and even though the video recording still crashes after a random amount of time, it no longer causes reboot. Also the camera in Mackay ROM has auto-focus which didn't work previously for me with CM10.1.
As long as I can take decent pictures, I'm happy. I rarely ever use video recording on my phone anyways.
And how about getting the miui camera apk for cm10.1? :good:

I can be wrong, but where i know so far, the developer of rom MIUI here on xda for p970 dont seed his job, because he dont get this things on other roms, he modifys in his own way. But is a great alternative, miui camera works excelent, tested yesterday and love it!

I have just got nemesisX rom with toccata kernel 0.3 overclocked to 1.1ghz and bravia engine2 and build prop tweak etc...
Its really good also the camera is so smooth on hd recording and the quality is excellent with no lag what so ever but the camera has always been good even when not rooted or on stock rom, still really good its just any jelly bean rom
Can't launch camera
As many of you know camera lags and crashes on p970 on all cyanogenmods ( i tried like 20 variations of it all had same ) Video recording doesn't last more like 3-20 secs till it stops, and then camera stops working and phone can't connect to camera unless you reboot your phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091599 i downloaded all cameras from here, but i don't know how to install them.. I unzip .zip file and inside i get 2 folders "system" and "META-INF", inside meta inf i find some folders and .RSA .SF and ,MF files. Inside system i find .apk file (doesn't install alone), camera.tegra.so this file and some other files. So can you tell me where should i put those files so i can install camera? i feel like omg, so many files with no description how to install...
The file isn't to extract. Just flash it through recovery.
did someone tried the 4.3 cam? everytime i take a picture the screen freezes, so i have to choose front cam, then switch back to back cam in order to get the app work normally
is there any fix for this?
