[Q] Camera picture problems - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello i got some strange problems with my I9000 on DarkyRom v10.2.2
my camera got some faliure i think, after i take a shot, everything looks good. But when i get out of the camera software and try to view the pictures with some other software sometimes my who picture is grey / black or huge parts of pictures are grey/black.
I tried to search the net but nobody got similar problems, some times my camera is working fine, but some times i have this problem.

Are the images big? It could be that they need some time to load and you just have to be patient let me know, as I too had issues on DarkyROM 10.2.2

images in the player's normal ROM you can see after this wait? or still do not see?

CM7 Camera

Im sure you all know that CM7 has a buggy camera, but i didnt think it would be this ridiculous 0.0. Every time i take a picture, i have to switch to video camera, then back to camera to take the next picture... If i download another camera app, i get a "Forced Close". CM7 is by far one of the best roms ive had so if it means no camera, so be it... But if there is a fix, id really like to be able to use it
Please let me know
Thanks!
I read your post opened up the camera, took three consecutive pictures, switched to gallery and viewed them.
So it works for me. Have you tried reflash or have you installed the latest update?
CM7
yeah, just flashed the update for today and everything seems fine :S. Im not sure why that happened though, happy its fixed

Camera problem (pink preview screen)

I have a problem with my camera. Everytime I open the camera app the preview screen is filled with pink/purple horizontal lines. I can't take photos with it, if I try I hear the click sound but the picture is never saved on my SD card. If I put my finger on the camera lens, the preview screen goes dark so it's 'seeing something' and then distorting it.
I'm trying to get a picture of the phone while it's doing this.
I'm running CM7 nightly 85
Anyone know if it's hardware related.
P.S. It's not the pink photo problem that is fixed by pushing on the camera
Edit : Now I can't even reproduce the bug. Phone says cannot connect to camera

My Sony T1 did this and for that...it was hardware failure. (did you drop or spill anything on your phone?) I guess you can try multiple ROMs. Try the MIUI ROM to see if it does the same thing...and keep your fingers crossed.
I didn't spill anything on it. But I use the camera every month or two so maybe I did but don't remember. Gonna try another ROM.
ok after a Temasek extreme wipe and a sd card wipe rodriguez MIUI is rebooting 10 secs after loading up.... (pretty sure it makes my phone overheat as it's really hot)
Installed CM7 7.0.3, I get the pink screen again.
Installed CM6 6.1.1, I get a black screen / forced close.
Modaco gives a FC / Camera not responding
Gonna try Formels MIUI...
What radio/baseband are you using (the 2 sets of numbers after the underscore "_"... something like 4.06 or 5.08)? I have seen issues with people using the cameras on Gingerbread when using the 4.06 radio.
If you are running 4.06, I would highly recommend updating it to 5.08 (which is the radio version Google included in the Gingerbread OTA update).
I have the 5.08. I was able to take a video with it. Of course it was only pink scanlines but it means something is still working inside the lens.
But I'm tired of trying to make it work. I will probably try to ship it back to HTC.

It is beginning to sound like a hardware issue anyway. Hopefully you get it back fast.
i have a nexus one. i had the same camera problem.
it started after i dropped my phone, it was the first time.
i was able to take pictures after that but objects were in pink and purple color tones.
i was hopeless searching, hoping to find people who has problems...
suddenly i decided to hit back of the phone couple times and it fix the problem.
i know it sounds crazy but it worked...
i think it is the best think to do before you send your phone to htc...

[Q] Camera screen black, but able to take photos

Hey guys, hope you can help me.
I've been using Cyanogen for a few months and now I face this problem:
When I use the camera, i see a black screen with controls, and can take pictures, however, I see a black screen and not what you expect to see as the view is the camera lens.
I've tried doing a nandroid (just in case camera or something was damaged) a full wipe, applying a rom from scratch and camera works correctly...
I'm guessing it may be an app or some setting bothering.
I don't want to configure everything from start, please help me
More information: this issue seems to happen before installing Motomizer and applying one touch optimization, and if it's uninstalled, problem keeps going
I've found that at the same time I cannot see any video on youtube videos.... maybe it's an overlay video problem?
Anyone?
Solved!
Dear jhonnyx,
I had the exactly same issue and I found it was a Kernel issue.
I was using wrong CF-Root and solved it just by flashing new kernel.
To solve the the problem just flash another kernel for your device, I prefer Siyah or DorimanX.
Hope this will help!

[Q] screen problem

I just bought my Note used and found out theres a big problem with screen black and grays.
I've done some search and found that black clipping issue : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1559800
But I think my problem is not that or its much worse. I'll attach a photo of my Note with that same gamma test pic as in the above topic.
When I bought the phone it had stock ICS installed. I installed first GB and then paranoidandroid JB That's when I noticed the probem. (Not earlier, because JB backgrounds show the problem better.)
I tried everything in settings but nothing helped. The oddest thing was when I one time opened the lockscreen, suddenly the screen was normal. I was happy with that but later the screen went bad again and nothing seems to help. I've tried different kernels and different roms (stock ics&gb, custom ics and jb).
It is so bad that no way i can watch photos or videos with my Note
Is there anything I can do?
just unroot back to stock n then take it to the Samsung ppl

Camera lag issues

I don't know if it is very common or not but I have been facing a lot of camera lag. It takes some time whenever I open the camera app although photos are clicked without lag.
Apart from that, whenever I have to share a photo through WhatsApp and go to camera to click the picture, the lag seems much higher and a few times phone hanged and restarted too.
Is it an issue with WhatsApp or maybe after the kitkat update the Camera performance is still not upto mark.
yeah... i've been facing this same issue... but .... to take regular photos.. if i try to shoot any photo takes 10... 15 seconds or to open the camera or to take the photo.... i will try to flash a custom rom today and see if this issue remains....
im facing the same issues since 4.4..... sometimes i think i should go back to 4.2.2 because that was the best room till now
