[Q] Camcorder Force Closes

I need some help figuring out why my camcorder force closes. I'm running CM7. I've tried wiping everything and re-flashing, clearing the camera data, fixing permissions, and searching the forums. Everything else works. When I try to use the camcorder it will force close, then my phone will reboot a short time later.

Try to uninstall the camera.apk and replace it with this one see if that works http://db.tt/dMMC8sj
I hope it works for you

No dice. The same thing happens there.

Did you update your Google addon also do you have the recommended HBOOT for cm7

The latest Fits one. This has been happening early on though. There has to be something different with my phone compared to everyone else running the same ROM because the camcorder works for them. Maybe I need a different kernel.

The kernal that I'm running is 2.6.37-cyanogenmod-01117-g3687213 [email protected] #1

That's what I was running, then I switched it to Redstar's. I don't know, obviously. My plan right now is to wait until RC1 comes out or a Fits build with more features and then flash back to stock and redo everything. I hope I don't have to, but I'm out of ideas.

Can anybody else offer some advice before I start wiping everything again?
Camcorder will freeze, then the phone reboots.
I've tried formatting the boot, system, data, cache, then flashing again. I've tried clearing the camera data. I've tried uninstalling the camera and reinstalling it.
I'm on RC1 of CM7, the latest HBOOT, and the kernel that comes with CM7.

i have the same issue tried switching kernels to no avail.

Count me in !

[ROM] CM10 Nightly Available now

FYI, its here, and stable!
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=quincytmo&type=nightly
When I say stable, I mean no reboots or lockups in the past 24 hours. No problems with the menu in Titanium Backup either.
Edit: got my first lockup (lightblue screen), shucks!
In order to flash this, you must be using the twrp recovery, not clockworkmod. I also format my partitions first using the Darkside Super Wipe Ext4. I'll attach both.
Don't forget to get the Jellybean gapps from http://goo.im/gapps for CyanogenMod 10.0.x

does the external sd card work?

Thanks for the heads up rotohammer +1 on the external sd working? I can live with reboots but not with the ex. Sd not mph.tiff right

Yes, its mounted at /external_sd and /mnt/external_sd/

Also I heard that flash does not work with JB.... is that true because I use my phone to stream live sports from flash websites and not sure if I could live without watching live football or UFC on my phone... Thanks for the heads up!

What does dark wipe super wipe ext 4 do. Are u suppose to.clear everything then flash super wipe, then flash cm 10, and then flash jb gaps?

The super wipe clears everything and formats the partitions as ext4. Im not sure if its really needed, but CM10 hung on its spinning boot logo until I used the super wipe and reflashed.

It never has on my devices. But backup just in case, I'd hate to see you loose anything on my account.

Superwipe didn't erase my SD card fwiw.
Flashed the ROM and so far so good, have not messed with trying flash player yet I'll report my results when I do get around to testing...
One thing I did notice is that my data seems quite a bit slower than previous ICS ROMs....any ideas?

Is there anything special that needs to be done to flash this? I am guessing just flash the new recovery, wipe, then rom. Is that right?

I took a leap of faith and that is exactly how to do it. I am a few minutes in and it looks great.

After a day or two, let us know if you had any lockups. I had to go back to ICS for the moment as I was missing important calls when it was locked up and I didn't notice.
I really prefer it over ICS.

I myself haven't had any lockups as of the 9/30 nightly

Good deal. I went for it again and flashed last night before I went to sleep and it hasn't locked yet. If that bug is gone, then we're all set.

[Q]Root stock ICS 4.0.4.

Hi there,
I want to ask you all how do I root my stock ICS without installing other custom roms. I just need the stock to be rooted for me to install titanium back up and unroot it after the Jellybean official arrived.
I am having a lot of problem with game save files import and export. Cause most of the game save saved locally on phone.
Any help would be grateful!

Go through Dr.Ketan's guide..you will get to know everything about rooting.
I did the same thing when I first rooted my phone. Just rooted the stock ICS & was using it. So, under development section, you will find the kernel thread in which you will see Philz kernel. Select the one which is for your ICS version & flash it via PC Odin

just install the philz kernel using recovery and you will get root.

If I want to restore back to stock kernel, what should I do? flash stock kernel again?

I just updated thru Kies in Hong Kong, to 4.04 JB. I tried to use the camera and I had an alert blocking the camera screen and a message bar as follows "Tap and hold shortcuts to edit them. Also combined with it where the OK button was was a text box with the words scanning media in it.
Now, its working after I played with it, first I reboot, that didn't help. Then I accidentally put it into third party mode but hit the up volume to get out of it before it went into download mode. It started to reboot but I held the up-vol, home and on button until it went to the rest screen. I tried to just wipe the cache, but it didn't do anything, moving the selector up and down worked, I tried wiping cache again, no luck, so I just reboot. After rebooting I laid the phone down and started to look for a solution in here. So I go to try the camera again to get the alert message it had, and
Wha La, the darn camera started working right, the alert blocking the screen was gone, it came up as usual for a new triggering, but it accepted my selection when I told it ok and then it went away as usual, computers, micro-processors, no matter what kind, if you have problems, some times just a long shut down to clear the electronic memory will also clear the problems.

Notification LEDs not working

Hi,
I recently flashed ARHD 61.1 and since then my notification LEDs are not working. All notifications are set to activate the LED but nothing does. The LEDs worked perfectly before I updated (I was on the previous version of ARHD before 61.1). Anyone have any experience with this sort of stuff or any fixes?

Do a clean reinstall from recovery, only this time don't log into your Google account. Once you have finished setting up your phone and the setup wizard has finished, log into your Google account .. Notifications will now work

Thanks, I'll try that. Would loading up a HTC backup mess around with the LEDs or would that be fine?

No it has to be a clean install. Your backup would have your Google account pre-installed.
Its a pain to reinstall all your apps but its the only way, sorry
PS.. Wipe cache, delvik cache, system and data but not internal storage. from recovery. Then install ARHD.

Over in the ARHD thread they had a good laugh today at how people mention " @ Mike 1986 " versus @ mike 1986 " (case sensitive).
Someday the user Mike19 (with a capital M) is going to log in again and discover about 10,000 mentions in his notifications ..

OK. Can you tell me what the kernal actually is and does? I'm new to all this. I have rooted and flashed custom Rom.just need s-off now.
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

Its kind of like the central core, all software and controls are built around it, it has control over everything that happens in the OS basically, kernel is boss.
---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------
here's a fairly good explanation: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/31632/what-is-the-linux-kernel-and-what-does-it-do/

OK so if I flashed a new kernal. Is it way to do? All I want is to turn s-off.
I have heard the camera doesn't work after on some?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

Just flash a kernel like you do with a rom, copy it to your internal storage then enter recovery and flash it, then try and s-off again with that kernel installed, if you don't like the kernel, like the battery drain is too high for instance then try a different one.

Will the kernal I install. Will it wipe my phone or change anything that's on my phone like custom Rom etc?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

No, a custom kernel will just enable some features you don't have now, like double tap the screen to wake and sleep, or swipe to wake or sleep, allow you to overclock etc, select which features you want during install.
If your not sure of anything, just select recommended or stock for everything during install, you can flash it multiple times and experiment each time with different settings.
Just one question for you however, if you don't know anything about flashing kernels etc, why do you possible want S-OFF, its very dangerous for someone with little or no knowledge and very easy to brick you phone, S-ON stops you flashing wrong software which may brick your phone, S-OFF relies on you knowing what you are doing, if its wrong with S-OFF, it will still flash and you will have a dead phone.

OK I understand. Some roms I want say they require s-off. Will they still work with s-on then?

OIC, as far as I know its only if you want to convert your phone to a Google Edition HTC One that you need S-OFF

So even if the Rom says s-off will the Rom work?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

No, If the rom requires S-OFF then you will need to be S-OFF.
Which Rom are talking about here ?

I was looking at sky dragon google play edition. Unless you can recommend a good rom for me?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

Yes you will need S-OFF for that, im using viper one, I love it and loads of themes and tweaks available for it.

I tried that. Has loads but to many I think lol. If I was too re flash.can I go straight over the top with recovery and not wipe data?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

Its always advised to wipe data if you are going to a different rom
