I was using DSLR Remote by Bitshift with GB 3.6 until upgrading to Android 4.0.4. Now, the app no longer works and I'm wondering if it could have anything to do with the upgrade. My question is a long shot I know.
The app is a DSLR remote control which requires a small DIY circuit (just 2 x transistors and 2 x resistors) to be put together with a cable between the camera and the Note's audio jack. Audio signals from the Note drive the interface circuit to activate focusing and shutter release on the camera.
With the help of the app developer, I've established that there's nothing wrong with the circuit or cable. What seems to be the case is that the phone's audio jack is no longer putting out enough current to drive the interface circuit. The only thing I've changed is the upgrade to ICS 4.0.4.
As I say, a long shot but I thought someone might have an idea about what the problem might be.
Thanks in advance.
Trevor
Android 4.0.4
Baseband version N7000DXLR1
Kernet version 3.0.13-N7000DXLR5-CL968032
Build number IMM76D.DXLR5
It may be so as the unrelated Voodoo Louder app (that increases max jacked volume) had a major decrease in max loudness after upgrading to ICS.
I think it may be related.
If no one else has a clue, I believe you may have to ask Supercurio (voodoo dev) for his feedback.

Thank you for the reply. That makes sense. However, I'm not aware that the volume decreased after I had upgraded to ICS. If there is a difference, I can't hear it.
Just for fun, I tried installing Voodoo Louder (Paid) since it was only a dollar or so but, again, it made no difference that I could hear.

I'm not sure on now to respond to your question, but have you tried asking back the app developer if his DIY app supports the new ICS firmware also?
The reason why I'm asking this is that, your app developer might have develop his app on GB platform and inasmuch, if that's the case, then that app cannot and will not work with ICS anymore.
ICS is a sort of a leapfrog from GB you know.. It's a case of you-win some and you-lose some functionality thing. You lose some of the basic GB functionalities and you gain some new ICS ones.
Well, thanks for responding anyway.
Yes, of course I asked the app developer. I mentioned in my OP that he'd helped me test the DIY hardware and cabling and we could find nothing wrong. My first question to him was if he knew of any issues with ICS on the Galaxy Note that might be the cause and he said he wasn't (there was one reviewer who said it didn't work on his Galaxy Note but this could mean anything).
The output from the phone appears on the audio jack as it should but the question of adequate AC voltage to drive the app hardware came up and I can't verify that without a scope which I don't possess.
I'm used to finding that with any hardware/software upgrade you lose and you gain. I was just wondering if any of the experts here, especially those developing sound related apps, could throw any light on it. If I have to live without the app it's not the end of the world. It's just a very useful app for a photographer with a DSLR - and not only is it free, it's ad free!
Markuzy suggested that the max output had been reduced with ICS and referred me to the Voodoo Sound developer website. What I read there seemed to suggest that there had been some reduction but that this was later fixed by Samsung. Who knows?
Thanks again.

MODDING THE SAMSUNG VIBRANT TO HAVE A FRONT FACING CAMERA (FFC)
DISCLAIMER: It is NOT my fault if this Breaks your Device, or if you screw it up trying to do it. blah blah you know the drill. XDA is also not responsible. This WILL void your warranty. Luckily it is easy to do.
***THIS IS ONLY FOR THE VIBRANT***
Other phones are slightly different inside
Required:
-Compatible rom (Bionix fusion or eugene's froyo or any rom that the dev specifically says ffc compatiable)
-JAC's OC/UV Kernel. Stock kernel will not work, period. Voodoo should also work KK's kernel also does not work.
-An FFC, of course (see below for where to get it)
HOW TO DO IT:
1. Open your phone
2. Remove the 7 screws or so
3. Remove the internal battery cover.
4. Remove your Vibrant camera... it is snapped in under the cam chip.
5. Using Goof OFF! or denatured alcohol or something similar, dip a q-tip in the chemical, and slightly dab the whole where it is to go.
6. Let it sit for 10-20 minutes, and repeat (or if you are anxious, don't wait...)
7. Using something plastic for the safety of the digitizer glass, and scrape out the gunk.
8. Now, definitely let everything dry before putting your phone back together, and MOST definitely before you put the battery in and turn it on. Give it 20-30 minutes to be safe... depends on the chemical used.
I used a flat head screw driver, which is metal, but if you choose this USE EXTREME CAUTION!!
For more info, go to my thread in the General section as I may have missed something/got something wrong in this post. It has been a while since I first did this mod...
Useful tidbits:
If you get force closes when trying to use a the cam, then you did not read instructions. Use the proper kernel.
Banding is present in low light conditions. This looks to be a software issue. Popular belief is that the phone is powering both cameras at the same time when either is called, and is basically confusing itself. This is a work in progress.
Software that is known to work is Fring, various lame mirror apps, etc. Android video calling is only available in Froyo, but I have not tested it recently since Eugene's R3, so I cannot confirm that it working ATM. Tango may also work.
Attached the mach.aries file for those of you that wanna chip in and do some digging. Looks like most of the things we need are in there. Attached a .rar and a .zip file... for some reason I had both? It's been a loooong couple weeks.
Epic camera: thanks to KellyLewis3985 for the dl.
http://db.tt/0DEkw9X
How to Flash:
1. Download the ZIP and put it on the root of your INTERNAL SD Card.
2. Open ROM Manager and boot into ClockWorkMod (DO NOT use Stock Recovery) or boot into recovery the manual way.
3. Navigate down to "apply sdcard: select zip" and locate the .zip file in your internal SD card. Push the power button, navigate down to "YES" and push the power button once more.
4. Let it do its thing, and reboot. First boot *may* take an extra second... Play with new cam app.
To get a cam:
Just got some more cams ordered... should have them by the weekend, so any orders now will start shipping 11/8 in the order they are received.

Well, due to over whelming support, i'm not done. Last batch has sold out, and some new options have presented themselves. Also, with the help of a few others, they are getting mad progress on diving through source code working on the banding issue... Keep following this thread for progress.
-----------------------------------------------------
So.... An ebay user who is also an xda member deliberately screwed me out of a camera and the money for it, so after this batch is gone, i'm done. He never updated his address with ebay or paypal, and of course i sent it to the address i had... and he got ebay to not only refund the full price but keep the fees for the sale and money transfer. Way to say thanks to the guy that got this started... asshole. oh! i get it. he is just out of high school and is a little slow to how the world works. probably because he "works on a farm with 70 dairy cows." <- quote from him.

Next batch of ffc cams are coming in for those of you who do not have one yet. New listing, donating some of the process to breast cancer research/awareness...
eBay listing here SOLD OUT
Still settling in after the move and new job... Still w/o internet at my house too... So I am limited in what else I can do right now... Hopefully getting these out will help some of you.

Breaking news available via my twitter feed of #vibrantFFC. my original thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7941083
-----------------------------------------------------
This thread is for android/software development of the FFC for the Vibrant. Software and ROM support is insufficient atm, so let's get that fixed.
To see how to add the FFC, check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804142
To get a camera check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804122 or hit up my ebay listing here. buying cams from the wholesaler in large quantities to provide them to you individually... Wholesaler had minimum order requirements.
Currently, I have only tested the FFC in JP3 and Bionix. Mirror app works fine, but is useless.
Video calling is doable, but not available in Bionix. Is available in JP3, but is broken.
Have not had a chance to test Tango, but Fring looks to be coded to use the rear camera...
UPDATE: there has been a lot of progress recently. Halfway through reading all of the threads... Seriously have note had much time, but should be able to finish compiling all of the info into this post soon.

Ok, I am a little confused as to which thread I should be posting in. But here goes.
My FFC wont load in Mirror App using Bionix 1.8 Stock Kernel.
Here is the logcat. http://pastebin.com/biJmEhPr
----------- Edit -----------
Ok, so I finally got around to installing a Rom with a modified kernel. (Specifically Bionix 1.8 w/ Jacs)
The Mirror app now loads the FFC and the image is actually better than the rear cam at the moment.
So, it looks like whatever is going on in the kernel makes a huge difference. Perhaps someone can
take a look at the i9000 and Bell SGS Kernel's.
Posted this in the other thread and it was recommended that I post it here:
Just a thought to kick around some ideas, has anyone looked at this?
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.Parameters.html
Looks like there are a few options that could be tweaked, including 'antibanding' for 50 and 60hz

i believe the above it true, i am running bionix 1.8 with the kk kernel, and i cannot get the mirror app to work, will load in the jacs kernel and see the difference.
edit:
i reloaded Bionix 1.8 with Jacs oc/uv without voodoo, and can now confirm the front camera working with the mirror app, albeit grainy
Could not get FFC to work on Bionex 1.7 Stock kernel. Third the kernel info.

Grainy or blurry?
If blurry, you can rotate the focus ring on the actual camera. That's what Cobra did to fix his.
Received camera, installed and confirmed that mirror app works on Bionix 1.7 with JAC voodoo kernel(voodoo activated). Unfortunately, the rear camera problem still exists. Tweaking focus now via outer ring of FFC.
Just installed the new camera. Still on stock JI6 ROM. Banding happens. I recorded some video and can post it if people are interested. Might check if there is any logging that happens when the camera starts up.

ahh gotcha, i'll try that when i get home after work.
when using the rear camera in vignette, the area where the camera chip is gets very warm after not very much use.
maybe the stock vibrant camera data files don't place nice with the i9000 camera
Does any dev have a cam yet?
So here's a thought, can I use sgs tools-prop.editor and change the info there to mimic the i9000? I nelieve it will trick fring (and all other apps) into thinking my phone is an i9000, but I dont wanna brick my **** as my laptop is not with me to odin.

I used SGS tools as you suggested and changed the ro.product.model to GT-I9000, rebooted, and the FFC works on the test call. I have yet to try it on Tango, because it is early in the morning and it takes two to tango. (Sorry could not resist)

Hey Guys... So after updating to official froyo how is the new experience for everyone?
Few for my part...
1. MTP Application Error seems to have been fixed even with a file extension of length more than 16
2. The Mass Storage option while connecting to a computer has changed
3. But speed hasnt changed on a scalable level from previous
4. Still some Applications need force closing
5. Many more applications starting automatically
I think theres a big improvement on my device. I have a ton of apps and lag is very minimal. GPS was really poor at first but recently using the google nav app its been REALLY good. I really don't know why though. Even when I change route it takes like 2 seconds to recalculate and show where am going.

its first realease of Froyo. Still samsung need to work on performance tuneing and more stable version of froyo......
i have just discovered that the camera firmware is MUCH better on JPO than it was with JM2
I went from jm9 to jpo yesterday. I am still wondering whether to stay with froyo or go back to eclair. Eclair is definitely faster and the gps fixes were in the latest releases of eclair, I had no problems with the gps in the latest eclair versions, it still wasn't what I would call a great phone gps but was good enough for most things.
The memory usage for the browser is horrific on froyo and the browser crawls compared to the eclair one, a bit disappointing.
Market in froyo is super fast, nice.. but not a big thing really because I dont spend that much time in the market. I'd prefer having a faster browser.
Froyo does bring a few nice things but its definitely not wow like I was expecting after hearing so many people moan about it being delayed etc.
Flash? its so slow its not even worth it. Maybe when dual core cpu's come out flash might be better but I can kind of see why apple didn't bother with it now heh.
Hopefully we are going to see Samsung keep releasing new versions of froyo like they kept doing with elcair and they will get better and better but for now.. Im seriously thinking of heading back to eclair.
I dont know how the hell the samsung company can t make a froyo that has no bug or problem, and the guys from htc did that with no problem. I have a htc desire with froyo updated via ota and i have no problem very fast and stable.

As experienced in the Accessorie section, loud noise limitation are more likely hardware related.
There's a workaround (external microphone) wich will give you results way ahead of any phones (original's mic)
Slow exchange gmail
Hi
After my update to froyo my exchange email has become very very slow.
CPU is using more than 40 o/o to run the gmail app. ( no sync.)
Anybody els facing the same problem ?
Hi
I installed JPA ... and I must confess that's the worst experience I ever had with a FW.
I can't count anymore the number of FC and the lag has reach some level never reached before.
The mail is so laggy that once ... after waiting for the refresh I tried to go back ... .nothing .... nothing ... and my account was gone. I had to recreate it.
I installed the DOCRambone 7.6.rom and the lagfix no RFS + ext4 and it doens't really change my feeling about the lag. For instance when I open my mail it takes few second to appear and when it appears it is forzen for 5 to 10 sec more ( I can open a mail , I can scroll the folder bar on the top ...)
I didn't try yet the GPS , I installed cardio trainer so next time I run I will do a quick test. I don't know why but I'm pretty sure it won't be nice to see
My speaker on the bottom right is very quiet. If cover my finger over the left one sound almost disappears, while covering the other one gives no noticeable effect.
Is there any way to fix this?

[2.3.3] Overcome ROM v3.1.0-KRATOS, Kernel v3.3.1, and I flashed Meizu skin over ClockworkMod Recovery
Yes, I asked because I'm also experiencing the exact same thing and on both the tabs in my household
I just had one of these replaced (3G issue) and tested the sound before rooting and upgrading to BOCA Heretic (via Overcome GB Safe 5 and 3.3.1 kernel) and it was balanced perfectly but now it's back to next to nothing coming out the right speaker.
I raised the issue with the BOCA developer but it doesn't seem to widely reported.
It would be nice to know if others using Overcome or BOCA have balanced speakers then we could could eliminate them as a possible cause and look elsewhere. So far I've experienced it on 3 tabs and you make 4.

I guess I'm lucky to have a Tab 7.7 running HC. So I can still use Voodoo Louder on it. I used to use an iPhone 4(S) with a dock-to-line out adapter and a Fiio headphone amp. Voodoo Louder made that unnecessary. I'd hate to go back.

Glad we are not all you... a response from the "respected" dev is what I'm after considering I paid good money for the app like others here. App description in the market has not been changed to highlight the app's gimped features in ICS
Besides, going from 10.5db to a recommended 1.5 in ICS is more than pathetic... I switched to Volume+ but just boggles my mind the lack of support this dev gives
Even when i enable the app and it shows 3db, the slider is only at the Half way mark. It never goes to full 3.
Another thing is that i have not seen any volume increase. Is every one seeing an increase in volume.
@Galaxy Note™…
i too am hoping that like in gb, the db goes as high as 10 because the sound really differs. i used senheisser hd 449 and i can't bring my note and galaxy s at the same time. i have purchased the voodoo sound plus which is compatible only to the original galaxy and the sound really impressed me.
+1... after flashing ics and reinstalling voodoo was sad to see only a +3db volume boost instead of the 10+ with gb... hope a fix/update is available soon...
Since the last month or so I have had a problem with the headset on my O2x. It is NOT an issue with the headset, it works on other devices and also other headsets have the same issue on my phone.
The thing is that the right channel is very, very, very low. Left channel sounds great. I've been running Temasek CM7 with symbi0sis all the time and never ever installed any kind of mod that would mess with sound. I have reflashed rom and kernel several times. I have not gone back to stock because it's such a process, but I will probably do that today or tomorrow.
I have been googling for days now but now I feel I have to start this thread here because I don't see a way of fixing this issue.
Sooo, my question is: does anyone out there have an idea of what I can do?! Please post if you do. I'm desperate at this point.

Sooo, my question is: does anyone out there have an idea of what I can do?! Please post if you do. I'm desperate at this point.

Get a piece of cloth, wrap it around a small pin and clean out the headphone port with that. Try using a compressed air can before you stick a cloth into your headphone port.
