[Q] Cannot use camera

I have not been able to use 3rd party camera apps like Camera360, QR Code Reader, Vignette, Magic Hour etc. It installs fine, but when I open it, the screen is just dark and blank. Using a rooted phone (DDKB1) I've experienced no problems while using the stock camera app. Can anyone help?

dude i am using vignette and 3d panorama like applications but i did not faced any problems like this

Sounds like u have removed the stock email app.
For some strange reason the stock email app is linked to all other camera related apps, try reinstalling it.

Even i hav removed email ap but camera works perfectly

wow! thanks guys...i had used startup manager to remove some of the apps that i thought were unnecessary. here are the apps that i added back to the start-up:
skype, yahoo mail, market, google maps
and now camera360 is working again but QR Code Scanner is still not working.
EDIT: QR Droid Private (code scanner) is working! Thanks a lot guys!

Are you using free or paid? Any good free apps to enhance pic quality key or add functions to camera

Sorry question was wrongly phrased. Don't need pic editing but need more functions to camera if available (if that improves picture quality). Don't need special effects like frames and things but any way the picture can be better. Any good free apps for this.

Glad it helps
Lemme clarify it a bit for those who may come across it in the future.
- Removing the stock email app with screw up other apps which have camera related feature. (my experience was Qr code, cam scanner)
- After removing the email app, your stock camera should still function well. However, 3rd party camera program will not (my experience was Pudding Camera). So, basically it is not 'cannot use camera', it is 'cannot use most camera related apps'
- My version to fix it is to reinstall the stock email app.

Great thanks man! I've reflashed my phone 2 times because of this and got the same errors with barcode reader and all other applications, I can't imagine that disabling starting email application can cause that type of problems! )

This is, i figured it's stable enough to be updated to beta. And i'm comfortable with having it in more than two threads now.

emmc music, use doubletwist, or similar to fix for now, no true hw acceleration, and a popup when downloading from market about file size.

Hmmm ok I'll try it out, hopefully the calendar shows this time. I tried the MIUI.us one and didn't have a calendar

i've been working on that, it's been a lingering issue. but on my last 4 boots with install it's been there.

Just loaded it on and everything works as it should. Even put Apex on so now I have either MIUI launcher or stock launcher!
Although I'm having problems with root permission and the keyboard doesn't do as well as correcting like the AOKP ICS build
**Sorry didn't see the post about the SU flash...I'll try that**

Just thought I would put out my findings so far on this version:
Cons:
- After putting on the SU flash it seems to have helped with the root permissions. Root Explorer crashes on me when I open it, it asked for root permission and this FC's.
- The keyboard doesn't recognize words like the typical ICS keyboard does and puts the red line under normal words that you would use. Even changing keyboards it still does it in the messaging apps and things. Not sure if it's a translation thing or what. Like in notes I have "one call for scheduling" for some notes I took and all four of those words have red lines under them.
- Notes and a few other things aren't translated to English, still is in Chinese even though I have English set as the language.
- Autobrightness doesn't seem to work the best, it stays pretty dim after the screen goes off and back on.
Pros:
- Battery life seems to be good but I haven't charged completely to test, I just charged a light charge and has stayed at the battery level for about a hour now and I have used it slightly so it does appear that it's good.
- Not really by your doing but it's nice being able to use the Apex launcher with the MIUI launcher so you could have the vanilla ICS look as well as MIUI look without changing roms.
- Gallery works fine on my end as well as the external music files. Doesn't read the internal but that's already posted I believe.
Hope that's not to long of a post and provides some good feedback, Calendar showed up this time on this flash and everything else seems to be working like it should

Is the fixed ROM a flashover and is there a way to get rid of the "download size requires WI-fi"?

Hey Mark, loving this rom so far. Seems really solid and am looking forward to the next update.
Was the 1x4 miui music widget removed? I'm only seeing the 4x4. Any way to get that back?
Just rembered: the Facebook sync, under accounts and sync, doesn't work. When you choose it, it just returns you to the account list.

If the widget was removed it was because of china, we should see it again soon though. This week they reintroduced their "custom music" app. For facebook sync, ICS removed it, you will need to download an app from market, i use http://tinyurl.com/7snt9sw from market. It syncs all contacts and pictures. Just add account from settings>accounts and sync

Thanks for the info! Surprised to hear ics removed Facebook integration. I'm a sucker for that kind of baked in goodness, but luckily there's usually an app for it.
Thanks for your work on this rom.

[Q] My Gallery and Camera fails after JB update. How to fix?

After the Verizon OTA JB update (4.1.2), My Gallery will not open. It just says "Error while launching application." The default camera app does the same thing.
Third party apps (LittlePhoto and Camera ZOOM FX) seem to be working fine, and I am looking for a good Gallery app in case I cannot get this fixed.
I tried clearing data/cash for Gallery app. I found somewhere that this was supposed to fix this problem. It didn't.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
--Glenn.

i would just wipe data in recovery
you will need to backup, texts, call logs, contacts… if you want to save
how to.. in my list

Really hoping there is an easier way to fix this. Looks like several people have the problem (judging by a google search), but no solutions yet.

Motorola's "My Gallery" was removed by the update and replaced with Google "Gallery" app.
If My Gallery is still listed (and tied to the camera) it sounds like your install didn't install completely or you restored things after the update.
You may want to flash the JB fastboot files, factory reset and reconfigure.

That was it! Looks like the camera app was also replaced. I was using App Manager. It kept the "links" to the old apps in the icon folders. After removing the old camera and gallery icons, and then adding the new ones, everything works fine.
Thanks tcrews!

Gallery app flaw

I'm not sure how many people moved from the Nexus 4 to the HTC One, but if you have, I'm sure you've used Google Plus/Picasa to sync your photos on stock Google. If you're like me, you even deleted those photos off your Nexus 4, but the gallery app still gave you full access to them, as if they were on your phone (sharing, viewing, and even editing cloud [Picasa/G+] based photos).
My issue now is that I'm not able to do any of this. I'm able to access my G+ albums through the stock gallery app on the HTC One, but that's about it. I can't see my camera roll, I can't edit the photos, I can't share them, etc. There is a clear distinction between the photos that are actually on my phone vs. the ones on my G+ account. Is there a way to overcome this?
I've already looked into getting the 4.2 camera/gallery apk, but I would apparently have to root my phone, which would mean starting over and deleting all my data. Any tips?

Nobody?

I was considering this, but I'm waiting for stock Android to have IR support before ditching Sense. Anyways, XDA recently released the live wallpaper and camera APKs for the Google Play HTC One/S4, and I installed them. Voila! I have the stock gallery/camera apps! Problem solved
P.S. I was shocked that they worked since my phone is completely stock, not rooted or anything! I read before that the phone needed to be rooted and the camera/gallery apk must be put into the system folder, but all I did was put the APK in my dropbox, allow untrusted sources, and click it directly from my dropbox on my phone. It installed and everything is working perfectly!

Does Photosphere work for you or does it crash?
On my AT&T HTC One with CM10.1 nightly, Photosphere crashes.

I just checked. It works perfectly fine for me (stock Rogers HTC One, not rooted). I even went into the gallery, and after a second or two of "rendering...," the panorama showed up perfectly. It's probably a CM issue.

[Q] Gallery (photos) not migrating to Nexus 6?

So I used the NFC tap feature to migrate the data, apps, etc from my N5 to the N6. I noticed that in Lollipop Google has done away with the gallery app in favor of the Photos app (It was a move we all know was coming). The thing is, I have never and don't like the idea of having Photos automatically backup my photos to the cloud so I have always had that feature disabled. Now, I am trying to get all my photos from the Gallery to my N6 but am not able to beam it or otherwise sync it with my google account.
Anyone else having this issue? Am i going to have to use like Airdroid or manually drag my albums from my N5 to my mac and then on to the N6?
Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

If you don't want to turn on the g+ sync you are going to need to save them to your computer and then transfer back. The tap and go just transfers over settings not files.

I really dislike the Google Photos app. Google needs to realize that some people would have just like an updated Gallery app with move function. I hated it when they did the same thing with Google Music.
I use Quickpic and everything works fine.

Thanks! Makes sense, I misunderstood the quick tap capabilities.

I agree - I really like the gallery app because I feel that the Photos app sucks at organizing photos into albums and such unlike gallery. But, that could also just be due to my lack time dedicated to the photos app.
I will check out Quickpic, thanks for the suggestion!
