Camera issue after flashing KitKat. - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It's a problem that is freaking me out, I have flashed two KitKat firmwares, one from XT1069 (Mine is XT1068 so works fine) and one from XT1063, and in these two, the normal camera doesn't work, only the frontal camera works, even in 3rd party apps, however, after I flash a Lollipop firmware from any model, (XT1069 or 63) the normal camera works fine. Why is this happen? This problem is freaking me out, I really want to go back to KitKat.

Thanks for your help but i guess i cannot flash this, because my bootloader is unlocked, I just want my normal camera back

[Q] CM11 on z1 + z1 stock cam?

Hi there!
I'm on the new CyanogenMod v11 for the Honami. I've a few questions about it..
The first time I installed the rom, the camera worked fine. But after flashing the .681 stock fw and going back to cm11, sometimes the camera is not available or fc.
Also I'd like to get some tips on how to install the z1 stock camera for the cm11. I already tied to flash the z1 camera port but that gave my a bootloop.
I hope you can help.
Thanks in advance
You cant use stock sony apps on CM
You need to clear data/dalvik etc in recovery then flash the CM .zip to ensure full working Cm rom
Ok.
I think i should rephrase that.
I'd like to run my Z1 on cm11. But also with the camera from the stock 4.4.2 fw by flashing this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/themes-apps/port-xperia-honami-z1-camera-app-image-t2437314
I really like the whole features the cm11 rom brings with it but the camera isn't that good.
Is that possible?
You can't use stock Sony apps on cm roms

Now I got it^^
But here it does..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600057
Ok, that's news to me, however it needs a lot of work, so I suggest asking someone who works in cm to do it. Those apps that already have been preyed are not nearly as complicated as the camera to port
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Makes sense.
I think I'll wait till the Z2 camera port really works and then go back to the stock rom.
Thank you for taking some time

[ML2 Guide] Flashing ROM's on the ML2 SS 3.71

ML2 SafeStrap ROM Flashing Guide!
Hello Guys!
This is my guide for flashing most galaxy S4 ROM's on ML2 without custom kernel .
•First Root your phone with this method: Root On ML2 OTA!
•Then Grab the SS.apk VERSION 3.71 Download install th app, Open it and press on install recovery Safestrap in the app.
•After that download a 4.3 ROM (For now only 4.3 and 4.2.2 work...) and the ML2 modules from here: ML2 modules
•Reboot into SS and make a new Create ROM-Slot.
•As soon as the boot partition is done click install (If it is green) and chose your ROM and flash it and then flash the Modules.
•Reboot and all done!
Lets Say I chose Hyperdrive RLS15, So I root my phone, Input SS, and download the Hyperdrive ROM, then I reboot into SafeStrap and make a new boot partition flash the ROM and after Aroma UNcheck Reboot, then flash Modules and only then reboot.
If IMEI or WiFi doesn't work try my guide: Transformix's IMEI and WiFi FIX
BUGS: Camera FC.

Thank for for this guide. Quick question, I have Hyperdrive SL15 with the modules and att compatability pack but after doing everything step by step I don't have data or wifi. My question is, with the imie wifi fix you posted, will that affect my stock rom? I still have data and wifi if I run stock but not Hyperdrive. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I don't want to lose my data & wifi on my stock. My phone is my only online source.

Truth is that I really don't know. Flash the ML2 models again.
I would try for you but I left Hyperdrive because it was too mushy with lots of addons everywhere.
IF modules don't work I would flash the IMEI fix for ML2.

Hi, I recently flashed Hyperdrive onto my S4A but had the obligatory cam bug as only issue afterwards for which your patch didn't seem to work with unfortunately.
hi @transformix i follow your guide and i flash a few roms all of them works but i couldn't make the camera to work . it is possible that i could flash 4.2 roms on the 4.3 bootloader? as i know from past experiences it could brick things and as im a newbie here i hadn't read enough yet to see if this could be possible im thinking about gpe rom as it at least no matter how old it is is aosp and it could make fell better than the crappy tw stock rom .
ty for your guide and nice work

AOSP ROMS are fine as I tried them.
Even the Google camera app recently launched on Google play works well km Sony kitkat ROM.
The issue is with the Sony camera app. Sony needs to do something about it.

[Stock Rom] [Lollipop 5.0.2] D405n Stock Rom, flashable via recovery

* At first, i would say, that i am not responsible for any action you do, since downloading attached files. Everything you do with files or advices in this thread, you do on your own responsibility.
This is ONLY for LG L90 D405N phone, not any other version of LG L90. Flashing attached ROM to any other device than LG L90 D405N will probably brick your phone!
Now to the point:
I somehow managed to softbrick my phone the day i bought it, and only possibility for me was to flash custom rom. But any of the available custom rom's has caught my heart, so i decided to get back to Stock. As i found, there was only old v10A version flashable available to download on internet, or possibility to flash original firmware from KDZ file via USB. Since original firmware KDZ file flashing via USB was not working for me (still don't know why), and v10A is way too old (current version is v10D) i extracted actual v10D original firmware KDZ file and made it flashable via recovery (CWM, TWRP). Of course you need CWM or TWRP first to flash this. I assume you already got it. If you don't, just google it, how to flash custom recovery on your phone.
Lollipop 5.0.2 Download:
LG L90 D405N v20A Stock rom
http://ulozto.cz/xFZyFfny/lg-d405n-stock-v20a-zip
(Click on zip archive picture, then write down captcha and click on "Stáhnout" bellow)
After flashing Lollipop Stock Rom on previous KitKat or KitKat based Rom, you need to flash Lollipop Bootstack as well, or you won't be able to use your mobile data!!!
You can get D405n Lollipop Bootstack file here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/development/bootstack-kk-l-l90-t3118632

This is clean Stock rom without any intervention, so dirty flash should work on previous stock rom. But i highly recommend clean flash, just to be sure, everything works smooth. You won't lose your custom recovery, but you will have to root again.

Well, the question is, how do you remove root. If by "unroot" ability from SuperSU app, it won't work. How to unroot for sucesfully OTA update, I don't know to be honest.
What if i flash your ROM from zero wiping everything. I will not have root permission... Right?

but as i can see we have to wait to have the LG official release at first
So, we finally have Official lollipop for all variants from a while now.
Maybe someone could post the flashable .zip for D405N Stock Lollipop, as I don't really like to unroot and Bootloader lock flash kdz then unlock etc. It's messy any could brick device, even if I did it successfuly from the first time...

I think if you have an unlocked bootloader you can use RSD Lite to flash a kit kat image and the revert
You have to do the bootloader downgrade, or you will brick your phone because when you took the update, your bootloader also updated. Here's the link but it is risky And you can brick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3058202

Um, not exactly.
GPT.BIN can't be downgraded. Parts of Mototboot.img can't be downgrade. We've seen issues of phones not working when the GPT/Motoboot are NEWER than the rom on the phone... i.e. someone tried to downgrade, or they started and failed flashing a newer SBF...
@dexter bob its a long story, which I've tried to explain (see the warning link in my signature), and some will say its safe, but I've seen way too many soft bricks (which could be recovered), hard bricks (could not be recovered so the phone is now a paperweight/door stop/trash), and others who just had some features/functions not working properly when they've attempted to downgrade, that I say... "Its your phone, you can do what you want, just please make an informed decision" and.... If you are ok with the very real possibility of rendering your phone useless, then sure do whatever you want, but if you can't afford to have a non-working phone, then do not attempt to downgrade.
ok i wont go for downgrade that but now i am using kk based cyanogen 11, that is "cm-11-20141115-SNAPSHOT-M12-ghost.zip ". i think it is kk based isn't it a downgrade? the thing is camera quality in kk 4.4.4 is good but i am not getting the same quality in cyanogen, how could i improve camera quality?
Just install eclipse or krypton.
They are both stock 4.4.4 based

CM roms do not touch much beyond System.. It is safe to flash those, and revert back to your stock rom.
u can use the Fastboot tools to downgrade

just download kk firmware you want and flash just system.img and boot.img then go to recovery and wipe data&cache.

In the Moto X General Thread, the stock Lollipop ROMs with download links are available. Download both the Lollipop ROM and the Kitkat ROM for your device.
When you are flashing(Using Fastboot), all you need to do is flash the gpt.bin and motoboot.img from the Lollipop ROM instead of the KitKat ROM and the others as is from KitKat ROM.
This method worked for me on XT-1052.
ok thank u brother, could u explain step wise because i am beginner, flashing means using cmd or twrp?
