I seem to have this problem with most apps that prompt the camera to be used. For example, the program "A World of Photo" (you send a random photo from your location to someone else in the world, and they send one to someone, etc) will automatically prompt my camera to come up so I can take the said picture, but after the pic is taken, it just goes back ready to take another pic as if I had opened the camera app. It doesn't go back to A World of Photo as I am assuming it should.
I am on CM 5.0.5.3 (wasn't feeling 5.6) and using the desire camera. Is the desire camera the problem, and how might I fix?
thx

Try reverting to stock camera and see if the problem persists.
Is that as easy as pushing the stock htccamera apk back in the system app folder or do i need to do something with the existing desire app? Sorry, still getting used to android.
edit: and why do I keep getting read-only filesystem errors when trying to do so?
edit2: ok just needed a remount - got it copied over. Now I have two camera apps lol.
edit3: yup it was the desire camera apps fault... well I have dual option now I guess so it does "work" with the stock camera app. Work in progress!
thx
So after having gone through 5 different camera apps that won't use the front facing camera and also switch to video mode, it's getting frustrating install and uninstalling.
The stock camera works but is sloooooow.
What camera apps have y'all installled from the market that you like and works well with the FFC and switching to video mode?
Flash this (my custom one thx to |ErosizeD| ) let me know is this work for you. it work on my thrill pretty fast.
Flashable Zip through CWM
shouldnt have any issues.. but plz backup
What does this mod do?
Sent from my LG Thrill 3D using XDA Premium

it will make the camera resolution clear and fast
Thanks! Just flashed it.
So much better. Takes about a second and a half to 2 seconds from first tapping the icon for it to be ready to take pics. Then somewhere between a second and two seconds to take the pic.
That's a huge improvement and takes away my need for another camera app.
Thanks given!
I tried it out, went from a 5 second launch to a 3 second launch. So any improvement is welcome.

Everything on this I thought was great until I went to look at my gallery. The resolution is way whacked out on viewing photos/icons/etc in my gallery.
How do I undo the mod? Do I just delete the apk?
The more I think about this, the more it irks me. Do they not have a QA person that checks things? I mean, c'mon, 5+ more seconds to start up and then the terrible delay on snapping pics. Well, unless your idea of a good camera is it takes long enough so you can make a pot of coffee and drink a couple cups.

I don't have problem but you can always undo it
copy zip file file to your SDcard unzip it using root explorer copy mediaprofile.xml and TicameraCameraProperties.xml
to your etc folder using root explorer and restart the phone
that will undo it
I can confirm that this mod doesn't work on gingerbread
wait is the resolution problem recurring? Or was it just for that guy.
Hello all,
Found a really strange thing.
I sent a picture from the stock message app ( also on t-mobile) . when I delete the picture from the gallery, it deletes the picture from the camera folder, but then adds the picture into a picture folder.
I have tried deleting the picture folder, but it keeps coming back and duplicating the images. I have tried this on all 3 of our Note 5's and it does it to all of them.
I have not been able to find a setting to turn this off, or a reason why it does it.
Anyone else know about this ?
Noticed that too, seems that itll create a separate folder with all the picture messages you send via text
Yeah, this is annoying. It's really one of the only gripes I have about the phone that I can't figure out. I don't want to use another gallery app and I don't want to root. Not sure how to fix it.
I hate this so much does anyone know how to fix it?

You just need to look at the camera album instead of using the time view.
That doesn't work.
Is this happening to anyone else or just some people?
Im having a problem WITH the gallery and is that when i receive a pic from let's say a whatapps group chat, it appears in the camera roll of the stock camera. Is there a walk around or fix to this?
Maybe change the gallery for another?
In the s7 this doesnt happens.
Thanks for the help
I'm facing the same issue, whole gallery is messed up. I have thousands of pictures neatly sorted in different folders and gallery mixes them all up together and shows them in date order, absolutely the last thing i want.
post a fix if you find one.
Bump
anyone having this problem?
not having this problem.
Are you guys using "Albums"?
pictures or events will go by date
albums will be by folder A-Z and in each photo it will be by date

No dont use it. But i use other apps and there photos either go into a folder download or its labelt with the apps name.
So it could be a problem with whatsapp downloading into the dcim folder.

Oh ok i think i get what your saying.
You go to gallery and its in WA alone with your camera folder download etc...
But when you open the camera app and scroll through the pictures. You see all your folders mix in by date?
VS only whata in the camera folder?

Exactly. in the s7 you will see only the pics taken not every pic by date
Yea i just tested that out.
I dont remember it doing that on the s7 edge.
It probably has to do with the new camera app.
If enough peopke submit it to samsung via online chat or calling then. They will end up fixing it.
Simply tell then its a Security risk.
I remember they updated the s7 edge. Befor you could doble tap to open camera. Take a picture then view the other pictures in the camera phot.
When they updated it it has a lock screen and wont let you view the other photos until you unlock the phone.

Is gallery part of Samsung software or is it part of Android?

gallery is android but the camera app is sumsung.
And the problem is the way they are talking to each other.
but both app start from the basic android code so its possible they coded the gallery different, but most of the time the gallery remands the same and the camera app is the only one that gets change.
I remember pull camera app from different phones long ago.
When you open gallery, it defaults to show all pics together, from all different folders, sorted by date. Now, inside gallery you can choose albums tab, that shows it properly in folders, but when camera access gallery, you dont get album option anymore and it's a mess. It's gallery issue, I don't like the way it works now, but I guess I would have to be rooted to install older version? And we don't have root yet, SUCKS.

Haha good question....the photo gallery is sorting and displaying in a strange way....newest on the bottom and u have to scroll up to see older ones.
Any other app even messaging ones display newest on the top so the phone gallery app is pretty annoying.
Yeap hope OPPO can let us set it in our preferred way, it annoying when you got a lot of photos on top but need to scroll all the way down to see the new shot that we make.
