Hey all,
The GTalk video call fc bug on CM10 has been discussed sparsely in various threads and in order not to spam/pollute them even more with posts regarding the issue i decided to make a new one, just to figure out if it really works ok for some and why's that. Recently it was mentioned that if one flashes the Xoom modded gapps (by EOS team - found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777987) he'll get video call running since the EOS team has modded the package in order to work with non-NEON devices (or something like that - haven't been able to find clear documentation in their thread). I flashed said gaps package and, even though the phone is able to initiate the video call in the background, i get a foreground 'unfortunately gtalk has closed' or so message. Thats definitely better than before when the program was simply crashing, but doesn't solve the issue. Audio calls run fine though. Pengus mentioned that he wiped dalvik/cache, flashed EOS gapps, rebooted and rebooted again and it worked. Didnt happen for me, still same issue on video calls. I must also note that even b4 flashing EOS gapps, i was able to do video calls and even videoconference (3 way video call) using G+ hangouts, so it must be a program specific issue more than a general android libs situation (excuse my ignorance - doing my best to understand how things work in this OS ). So how do this run for you people? Is there anyone who managed to get it running fine on CM10, and if yes, can you give some details on your current setup? Also, if you did manage to get it running, did you follow a different flashing procedure than the one mentioned here? Thanx for your replies/participation
My current setup: CM10 3/1 nightly, old BL, v28e BB, EOS gapps
Peace

Hi,
here is what I did to solve this: I just took the libvideochat_jni.so from the eos-package and pushed it to /system/lib. Afterwards I cleared gtalk data and cache, restarted the device. Finally I could do video-calls
I've also attached the libvideochat_jni.so I used, maybe someone can make a flashable zip from it. I'm on pengus latest rom+kernel by the way.
Regards,
orgler

Here is my logcat of GTalk FC with suggested library http://pastebin.com/pX3hTBjB
UPD: seems i have fixed GTalk video...
You need to take from eos Talk.apk, libvideochat_jni.so, libvideochat_stabilize.so and check, if you have original /system/lib/hw/camera.tegra.so. If you experimented with ICS cam, camera.tegra.so possibly changed.

wow great news. Where did u push Talk.apk and libvideochat_stabilize.so? I havent flashed ICS cam, so i guess camera.tegra.so shouldn't need any changes.

Oh, and you should take libs from optional/noneon/lib folder in eos archive

Sorry you've confused me a bit now. Take which libs from optional/noneon/lib folder? libvideochat_stabilize.so and libvideochat_jni.so only, isnt it? Because these files also exist in the EOS package in system/lib. And permissions/owner for which files?

Hi all,
Update 30/03: Testing seems okay so flashable zip file for recovery added.
There seems to be a lot of demand for a silent video camera and I sometimes wonder if the motives are questionable but nevertheless, I aim to please.
LG have put security around the video camera sound files (these are in camera.apk/res/raw/ - camstart01.wav and camstop01.wav). They verify the file by name, id and most significantly a hash key. This means it is impossible to change the files without changing the code.
So here we have the modified Camera.apk with code changes.
No video camera start sound
No video camera end sound
Still camera sounds not affected
Sound file verification and sound trigger code removed, no code added
Download the .zip file below and flash it from ClockworkMod Recovery.
Download: O2xNoVideoSound-unsigned.zip
Please report back and I like the 'Thanks' button below...
It seems to work like it should, no beep when starting/stopping recording!
Thank you very much
works great thanks!
Thanks! It works without problem!
Won't get it to work with my 2X

I tried flashing this through CWM and it ended up getting stuck in a boot loop. Had to restore my backup to get it to boot again. I'm running stock Android 2.2.2, Kernal 2.6.32.9, Build FRG83G and LGE version LGP990-V10d.
Any ideas why it's not working?

No, I don't know why sorry. It should work, it simply replaces one file.
In fact I can't imagine what could even cause the loop. To be honest I'd need to see a log to confirm what the problem was.
If you can get a log with adb whilst it's looping I'd take a look for you but of course this is effort you may not care to go to.
Thanks for the reply and offer, but yea that is a bit more effort than I think the silent video is worth at the moment. Hopefully nobody else is having issues.

Force-Close, ie. a crash.
For those of you using Kenneth's rom (me) or with some other way of working Google Talk video calls, I found a way to make it work over more than just wifi. I can't take the slightest credit for it, but considering that I couldn't find any Atrix specific information, I figured I would post this here. Worked great for me!

Excellent this works. You don't need Root Explorer neither "SQLite editor". Both costs money and does not anything in addition what free "SQLite explorer" will do.
This is confirmed as working for me on Kenneth ROMs.
Has anyone tried using the "easiest" method, [root] Talk 1.3 Installer? I tried using a few of those versions, following the instructions to restore back to the backed up Talk app, and none of them worked for me.... Don't know if it was something I did wrong, or what, but I'm not going too far out of my way to fix this when VTOK works sooooooooooo well, even over data!

I hear what you're saying, but I don't think installing a modified Talk app would brick the phone....... I have been wrong before though, so do what feels safer for you! I've swapped a few of them out and had no success, but also haven't had any serious issues like bricking the phone either.... I know going to a few of those will remove your Google account and all you have to do is re-enter your login and the phone will begin downloading all your mail, Picasa account, and Voice account back to it, which takes less than 5 minutes with a decent signal

Yeah I can't imagine as likely either, but some of them sounded like they were messing with mounting and un-mounting system partitions in odd ways. Besides, it sounded like way more work to find one of those that worked, restart and flash multiple times, and so on, than to simply edit one word I would make an Atrix-specific flash for everyone if I knew how it was done, but sadly I don't.
To anyone that does know how: just make a zip that edits that one line in the .db file mentioned in the link of the first post. The app doesn't actually need updating.
As easy as this change is, I don't see the benefit of installing another app to perform the change. Also, I recommend paying for the SQL Lite and (I used root Explorer) apps if you find yourself using them for these types of changes. The developers should be supported when they provide tools that make it so easy to modify the Android system. Lets keep them motivated to continue making such awesome tools.
I can also confirm this worked on the leaked 4.5.91 (beta 4.5) from Kenneth.
Good find!!

Don't use any installers at all. All you need is already on the ROM. You have to go back to original ROM and follow guide above with no additional binaries installed from any other sources.

the modaco installed version does not work. if you used kenneth's GB ROM, then you already have the files. go into your system/app folder, rename talk.apk to talk.bak and rename talk2.apk to talk.apk. that's it.
I've factory reset, flashed redpill and tried again with kenneth one and still can't get the video to work. Doing nothing but installing gtalk.
I get the icon but when trying to start the video, the video chat process crashes and creates a core file.
Not really sure how to debug it further than opening the tombstone.
As the crash is systematic regardless of my ROM, may I ask what Radio are you guys using? I'm on 4.5.91,

I flashed Kenneth ROM then radio. Radio is 4.5.91. No video icon at first.
Then delete talk.apk, renamed talk2.apk to talk.apk, install new talk.apk and video icon appeared and started working on WiFi only.
Then edited database to allow to work over cell data and now it works over cell data as well.
I did not do anything else except from steps above and made it work with no crashes.

Thanks! That was the issue (I reflashed), the lib coming with the rom allows camera to come through.
Putting that file (attached) in /system/lib should resolve the issue for people who like me overwrote it (or used the Talk installer).
This simple mod will fix video recording while using XXELK4 with custom kernels.
*Hopefully, Samsung didn't made any big change at drivers and stuff, so that's the only problem which can be easily fixed. Remember 4.0.4 update to i9100 when neither bluetooth and camera were working with 4.0.3 kernels?
Problem
- If you are using any custom kernels built with 4.1.1 sources video recording won't work on XXELK4 (4.1.2). If you try to record the app may still work, but video size will always be 0K and you won't be able to pause and stop. Then, app will freeze. Video file won't be saved.
Solution
- Install the following file on CWM. This contains old camera libs from XXDLJ5 (4.1.1), and it's compatible with 4.1.1 kernels (of course.)
- Choose one of the versions.
a) The FULL version contains every camera file, it should be the safest one to use, without breaking anything.
b) The MINIMAL version contains only the old camera hal (camera.smdk4x12.so) for the fix. If this cause any side effect, please use the full one. I recommend this minimal version, because it only overwrite the hal, so new camera libs will be untouched.
- There is a restore file, provided by RS050377. Use it if you want to go back to stock XXELK4 kernel.
Side effects
- None until now. But if you install stock kernel again, camera app may work and may not work. May still work, may break something, may break everything, I don't know, didn't test for this. I also don't expect any problem with the minimal version, but I just kept minimal and full just in case.
Downloads
- Full version
- Minimal version
- Stock XXELK4 files (thanks RS050377)

I don't know if omega's camera app is the stock one. Try re-flashing omega and see if video recording is working. If not, flash this fix again. If it still not working, check if omega 33.1 is XXELK4-4.1.2. If it still not working, come back and let's manage the fix.
ps: i'm testing this to work with only the essential files. I took every camera related files, but i'll try to use only the "good" file(s). I don't see any side effect by using the actual version, but using updated libs is always good (I guess...)
That's it. Managed to get a minimal version, the only file we need is hw/camera.smdk4x12.so, so I uploaded it.

Are you using full or minimal? If full, restore to original files and install minimal. Maybe old camera libs are causing it. With minimal it's working.

Does this fix concern and solves all GPS related problems aswell for actual custom kernels in XXELK4 ?
*edit* : just tried minimal version and it seems not. GPS is still not detected in Google Maps app (like I never activated it). But it fixed the video recording problem perfectly btw! (WanamLite v5.0 + Siyah v1.7) so thanks anyway.

Are you using full or minimal? If full, restore to original files and install minimal. Maybe old camera libs are causing it. With minimal it's working.

I tried with both versions, and I recognized that I have to make a photo or video before I can enter the gallery, but everytime again so when I switch bach to photocam or videocam I have to make a new one before I can enter the gallery...

Btw, is it normal, that screen rotates when camera is started (in portrait mode)
(screenshots are made in portrait mode, but camera gallery shows them as if i made them in landscape....)
I have this issue since update 4.1.1....
Hey guys, this is my first post on the forum.
Many people got phone calls on stock ICS, then changed to 4.2.2 and lost it
But while seeking the forum, I GOT IT AT LAST!!
Although, it has a bug, which is when u receive a call and slide the call button, as soon as u press it it says "unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped working", but it might work perfectly on other ROMS
I tested it on Infamous ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2220912
Here it is :
Format System (No data wipe required if ur reflashing same rom)
Install ROM, Gapps, and the file attached
Fix permissions (just incase)
Dont reboot untill u do all of that, as in dont reboot in the middle of the procedure.
There u have it
Please tell me if it worked
EDIT : works perfect on infamous 1.7.2, just extract the zip file, paste all the files in their place, and keep the phone.apk untouched (keep the original phone.apk Cruz it works)
P.S : i really appreciate Khomsn for making the CM10.1 build with phone calls, but that build is REALLY laggy.
Thank you everyone.
P.P.S : u have to flash i9103DXLP2 modem (has to be that number specifically) really important to do, link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40754968&postcount=15 (thanks John Kester )

I can make a call and stoping with push end when i'm tryng calling, on my tab sounded a ringer and working fine for receive call. everything is working fine to me.
Thanks for the effort, but this isnt working for me. I cant even get the phone apk to show anywhere. Im not even sure ifi t installs one. If there is another installation method that isnt mentioned here but that I need to do please refer me to that. Otherwise after flashign th one file above and fixing permissions I get no phone apk to even test this. Im on the infamous rom as well.

Umm... i just installed the phone.apk from Khomsn's thread as a normal apk and that seemed to fix my problem.
Otherwise. Just push the phone.apk in /system/app/ and fix permissions (i dont think fixing permissions is neccesary but i just do it incase)
Yea, Ive done that a few times and I cant get phone.apk to show in the apps list after install.

Consider installing gapps that contains a phone apk after which you flash the phone fix above. Your tab should make calls flawlessly but know that the speaker is set to off by default so you have to activate it when making a call.

Ok thanks for the reply I do need a link to the GAPPS with a phone apk though , unless of course the GAPPS for the tab 10.1 comes with it but why would it. If Im wrong please let me know.
EDIT: Ok so my bad, looks like I need a 3g tab and I have a wifi tab. Thanks for the help nevertheless.
Do search for gapp of 20121212, it contains a phone apk. Gapps for custom roms often contain the apk.

i think it's the META-INF that's the issue.
i'll try to put them in another zip and reply.
BTW: i've got a build of infamous aokp with phonecalls "without the need to do anything" but i think im gonna need permission to upload it.
But for the time-being, i think installing the phone.apk like a normal app will work "iv'e tried it out of curiosity and it actually installed )
but i still don't know why com.android.phone keeps FCing after opening mobile data in settings or when answering a call. Anybody got any tips.

[ROM] SKINNY KAT 4.4.2 I9505G ML4 [GOOGLE EXPERIENCE]
Welcome to the Skinny Kat ROM for the I9505G Google Edition Galaxy S4. This ROM is a lite version of ML4 based off of SamuriHL Odin package. ( Thanks SamuriHL ). Skinny Kat includes the Google Experience Launcher with Search, “Ok Google”. In order to package this ROM I used disk internals to unpack the system.img.ext4 from the Odin firmware package and then made my cuts and additions from there, everything else was packaged up in Dsixda Android Kitchen, thanks dsixda, also Thanks to wilbarger for his tireless help in resolving issues and testing.
PLEASE NOTE: I have not tested this myself because I no longer have the I9505G, I am running the N5 now. I am planning on adding some custom features and modifications to Skinny Kat so if you are interested in being a tester please let me know. occuapational_hazard & SamuriHL have been helping out but its good to have a few more because we all have busy lives.
[ PLEASE DO NOT ASK IF YOU CAN FLASH THIS ON ANY OTHER PHONE BUT THE I9505G]
[Disclaimer] I nor anyone on this forum or XDA is responsible if you brick your phone; lose your job, or life as we know it ends. Modifying any phone comes with risk.

Merry Christmas RESERVED. Screenshots coming
Thanks for the Christmas present. Am downloading and will test. Glad to see some of the junk removed.
On first glance, when I tried to check an voice mail message, the screen goes black and it never goes to voice mail. This may be an issue with my phone as I cannot get rid of the voice mail notification icon no matter what I try. I do not have any messages waiting, but the icon will not go away even with other ROM's now.
EDIT: Just did a full wipe of phone and reinstalled your ROM. I tried to make a call and get black screen followed by short vibrations and after 20 seconds the screen comes back on. Cannot make calls. Still working on the VM icon. EDIT: Got rid of the VM icon. Phone dialing still borked.

Since I don't have an I9505G to work with its hard to get the issues fixed without some more help. If anyone is interested in helping out lmk

Got rid of the icon by leaving myself a vm, listened to it and then deleted.
I installed the latest KT and the phone does not receive or send calls. SMS works fine.
EDIT: Phone loses root also.

Is it possible that you can Odin back and delete the apps only ( not the wallpapers ) from TB then install GE launcher ( not search ) and convert it in TB to a system app. Then create a folder on your desktop and open up a command prompt inside that folder and type "adb pull system" ( without quotes) and upload the file and send me a link? Lmk. Thanks Wil.
Oh and before you pull the system image and after you delete the apps and install GE launcher you would make sure everything still works this would help me figure out what's causing issues on my end.

If someone else would load this ROM up and see if they have the same phone issue, it would help a lot. I would hate for this to be a one off issue.

We need some HELP
Hey guys, we need some feedback on this ROM. Have you tried it? Any problems? Would you be willing to try it? MJHawaii is trying to get us a new build out and so far he cannot get enough feedback to make progress with completion and debugging.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I think TWRP is breaking some things during install can you try cwm recovery from the I9505G thread and see if it is causing the same problems
Seems 4.4 keeps having issues once it's installed and it varies as the problems are reported. Please post in here

I did a full wipe and tried with both TWRP and CWM recoveries. Both went into a loop at the Google logo. Restarted in recovery and wiped again with the same result.
By the way, the issues with the boot loop that I am having are NOT with the ROM posted in the OP. That loads and boots for me, but I cannot make or place calls with it.
If anyone can try the ROM in the OP and report back your results, it would be greatly appreciated.
