Audio and camera fail to work. On occasion they might work after rebooting, but only to collapse a while afterwards.
I have tried various different roms and firmwares but all exhibit the same behavior.
I suspect it has to do with something more fundmental. I don't think it's a hardware problem because they seem to work even for a short period of time.
Any suggestions will be greater appreciated.

I'm absolutely delighted with the smoothness and functionality of CM10 as of now. Obviously I've been experiencing the usual problems of immense battery drain and call quality, but I'm sure those will be fixed in the short run.
However, another problem I think that is overshadowed by all the other problems is the HDMI. This is probably because barely any people actually utilise it on a regular basis, but some people do.
The phone connects to the TV and projects the image fine. However, it is ALWAYS shown rotated 90 degrees so that the projected image on the TV is always horizontal. This is quite frustrating when I'm trying to watch downloaded TV shows. I've tried disabling the rotation in settings completely; however, no matter what I do the moment i connect the HDMI and then turn my phone on, the image is always portrait and rotated.
Maybe time will fix this. However, I wanted to post this because I was afraid that this problem would be easily overlooked and never fixed.
Thanks!
It was said multiple times. Do not mind, that if yopu create thread for thios bug it will be fixed.

Hello everybody.
I have been having a strange issure with my i9295's camera, and thought I'd get some feedback. For a long time I used the 4.2.2 rooted firmware and everything was fine, but then I broke the screen and replaced it, and decided to try using custom ROMs.
Now, I'm not sure if it is related to me taking the thing apart and putting it back together, or just from using custom ROMs, but the issue seems too convenient to happen on three different versions, with three different stock camera apps.
My problem is now, that whichever stock camera app I try to use, the phone will freeze for 4-5 seconds when taking a photo, and will completely freeze and make the camera inaccessible to any app until I restart if I try to shoot using HDR. I tried some random 4.42 version, Paranoid 4.4.4 and now CM12 5.0. They all had a different type or version of the camera, but all the same issue. Yet I have no issues using CameraZoom FX. I'd just like to be able to use the stock app for it's features and speed.
Is a non-working stock camera a known issue, is it a convenient software bug that happened to be in the exact 3 roms I used, or is there a possibility that I damaged the camera module when I disassembled?
Thanks in advance .
I am having a problem with my HTC one M7 (Rogers) . I am running Android Revolution HD 84.0 (and I have tried the last couple versions without any change in the problem). When recording video the colour information seems to be horribly skewed relative to the brightness data. The screen shows the video properly, the problem is only visible when playing back the video. Here is a video of the problem, and yes I see the irony in using a broken camera to record a video of another broken camera:
It looks like it is either reading a bunch of garbage data before the colour data, or starting partway through the colour data and reading off into another section of memory (I don't know if it is read top to bottom or bottom to top).
I tried changing ROMs and cycled through the last few versions of ARHD without any change in behaviour. I did a factory reset and there was no change. I am not sure what provoked the problem as I don't frequently review my videos so I don't actually know when it started but it was in the last 2-3 months.
My hope would be that the next step is to re-flash the camera firmware but I haven't any idea how to do that on this phone or where I would obtain camera firmware.
Has anybody run into this before? What should I try next?
After some searching I see 2 other people have had this problem with no solution:

This is a known issue with the HTC Camera App. Not a Rom issue or an problem with your camera.
Recording at 1080x720 works fine. It was something to do with HTC implementing the eye experience on the M7 Camera app. You can replace the camera app with an older one but you will lose the eye experience. Or record at 1080x720

I wish known issues like this were better disclosed - I could have avoided wasting people's time.
You seem to be correct, I have changed to the google camera and it seems to be working properly.
Hello,
because i bought a new phone i gave my "old" Nexus 6 to my wife. Since a updated to Marshmallow i had problems with the camera. It stuttered while making a video. But i dont often used the camera, so i ignored it. My wife is Snapchat addicted and she can't make good videos with the front camera of the N6....it's like a slide show....the record is not smooth. I searched at the internet and a lot of people have the same problem since Adnroid Marchmallow ....
I flashed her CM 14, because i thought it might be a problem with the stock rom , but the problem remained. So my question is. Because i know i had not the problem at Android Lollipop. Is there anybody who had the same problem and solved it with flashing another rom? Or is it worth to try another kernel? I looked at the "rom forum" and found the "sky dragon 5.0 with a "new" kernel and probably i will try this. So my question is....is it a problem with the rom? is it a problem with the kernel? is it a problem with the hardware? What you expert think its the best way to fix the problem (i tried tips in the internet like diasble geodata at the photos or disable the battery safer for the camera app).
I hope you are able to understand my english. Otherwise i will explain it in other words.
Thank you very much!
Flash a factory image (will wipe the phone 100% but take it back to bone stock). If the camera issue is present on stock rom, stock kernel, with no modifications, then it's a hardware issue.
i have had problems with stuttering camera app before but it was fixed by resetting the phone. not really sure why after installing a new ROM you still facing this issue.
have you tried other camera apps? download a free one from the store and see its the same deal.
My first Nexus 6 had no issues whatsoever. When I had to RMA that one for the massive battery bulge issue, my second Nexus 6 had the camera stuttering issue. It would happen whether I was taking still shots or video. Obviously it was more noticeable on video, but it still made taking stills difficult. I took a video at the time to post on here to see if other people where having the same problem, but actually never got around to posting it...

Anyway, I RMAed that phone for the camera issue but then the third N6 had the same issue. I decided to live with it though since (a) Motorola has a really frustrating return policy/procedure, and (b) since two different devices had it I didn't think there was any guarantee that an RMA would fix the problem.
Fortunately, I've noticed that lately (running Nougat now), the stutter has mostly gone away. I'd say that for still pictures it has gone away entirely. For videos, I think it is gone as long as you use the stock camera app. I've noticed that if you use other apps, like Instagram for example, my video still has issues. In that case though, it's more of a constant refocusing issue than a stutter issue.
So moral of the story is... for me at least, it seems to be ok on Nougat as long as you stick to the stock camera app.
I often play rhythm games with my Note 5 so it's pretty noticeable when I get misses because of this.
I am not particularly sure what's causing this. Stock rom or not (I have LineageOS right now, I even tried the ported S8 Edge rom) the problem is still there.
I can make guesses that it could be input lag, general lag, or something else processing related. Is this a common problem? Could this be more on the hardware end?

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually tried your method but, sadly, no improvements whatsoever.
The problem is still present and I can't keep a combo at all in my game due to random unregistered taps.
EDIT: 12 hours after I did your method, things seem to have improved at least. I'm not certain if the problem is completely solved or it's just my own mistakes in the game now. I think I did more shocks to the phone than what you recommended, though.
