So basically I tested some roms and kernels, and after flashing the eXtreme kernel my camera and auto rotation stopped working, I've seen some people have some trouble with it too, but the issue wasnt resolved too. I tried flashing both android 8 and 9 roms via miflash (those were the stock ones) and it didn't help. Please guy I know you have the power to fix it, thanks in advance!

Hello everybody,
I've searched around this and other fora for my problem, but I found nothing. I bought my SGS about 2 months ago. It came with Android 2.1 installed and, through Kies, I updated it to 2.2 Froyo. After that, I decided to flash Darky's 9.2, as I heard a lot of good things about it.
After flashing everything was fine for a couple of days, 'till I started installing some camera-based apps, like Barcode Scanner and Google Goggles: I used them about three times, then they started force closing (Google Goggles) or showing a black screen instead of the camera view (Barcode Scanner). The situation grew worst and worst as my camera app started giving me a "Warning - Camera Failed" as soon as i switched to video mode. I read on Android Forums this problem could be caused by some of those camera-using apps, so I uninstalled both Barcode Scanner and Google Goggles, but nothing changed.
Other listed solutions were to disable lagfixes, change ROM/firmware, reset the phone, but none of this helped.
After experiencing those problem with Darky's 9.2, I upgraded to the new Darky's 9.3, but I still experienced the same damned issue. Thinking of some software issue with Darky's, I formatted the phone, disabled any lagfix I had and tried to flash Jimmy's/Hamster's v6.3. Well it's blazing fast, but I still have a similar problem: both camera and video mode work flawlessly, but both Barcode Scanner and Google Goggles force close, while Layar reports it is "unable to access camera hardware".
And now here I am, asking for your help. Thanks in advance.
Loads of posts on this subject on Darky posts suggest one you search them two you delete the rom and go back to stock .Then use another custom rom of your choice .

Thank you for your post, but, as I stated, I've already searched for my problem and no solution worked. Also, I've already flashed to another ROM (Darky's-> Hamster's).
I also have the problem with camera. Try to find the newest firmware and update it, maybe that will solve the problem.
When i updated fw, camera worked fine for a couple of hours, and then, iI don't know how, phone automatically switched to my old fw (about 1-2 hours after rebooting).
Then I have to restart the phone and camera works fine again with new fw.
It's so annoying, but i don't have the complete solution yet. Btw, i'm on Darkys 9.6.6.
Sounds like you're missing the stock email.apk

Hi there,
I am experiencing a problem which I did not had with my other devices before.
When I try to flash a new kernel (Team Seven kernel stable) my WiFi stops working.
When I try to turn it on, it says 'Error'.
I have seen some other threads around which reported the same, but they were from other devices, with different (complicated) answers.
I wonder what this problem could be, and how to solve it.
Much thanks in advance!
UPDATE: Problem solved.
I tried to re-flash it, and formatted the cache partition in case.
Now it works
Hi all,
I encountered this problem since the very first day I got my device.
At first, I thought is the bug of official ROM, the ROM running is MIUI 7 global stable.
After few times update, the problem still the same.
My device is running MIUI 8 global stable at this moment, and I still have this problem.
I tried to post my question on MIUI official forum but still I cant get a solution.
I tried reset and reflash the ROM, but still cannot solve my problem.
Is there any solution from guys from XDA ? Besides flash my device to custom ROM.
Hello guys, I need your help. I discovered that on xiaomi.eu rom compass is behaving kinda wrong. I discussed about it here but I didn't get any solutions for that problem. On Global Stable ROM everything is fine, compass stands still but on the xiaomi.eu it keeps increasing value when the phone is laying on the table. I discovered also that in the diagnostic menu the value of Z axis is increasing (screenshot). As it's not a hardware problem it must be something wrong with the software. Can you help me to solve this problem? If I should check anything else or give you more feedback about it, just tell me. BTW I tried factory reset twice, even flashed back Global rom and then again xiaomi.eu. Also I cleared the compass data and tried to calibrate it many times. I hope it's not a Chinese rom problem on which xiaomi.eu is based on
Seems like the latest update (9.10.31) finally fixed that issue. The thread can be closed/deleted
I have had one heck of a time getting roms to work on my LG V40. I had to recover from a Sahara error by flashing some backups I found online, got DL/FB and then used LGUP. When I flash a KDZ my WiFi works, but when I flash any Android 10 based rom, I get LTE but no WiFi. If I flash 11 based I get no IMEI (I forget if I get WiFi, don't want to test again, unless this fix will possibly fix that too).
How can I resolve this? Is there something I can backup w/ QFIL/TWRP when I'm on stock KDZ and flash again after ROM (and what step would I do this, after full boot or before?)
I also think I've permanently broken SafetyNet, just curious if anyone has it working or if I actually broke it.

Well good you got past the sahara errors. I'm unaware of any general fix for all aosp roms for this wifi issue. I'd suggest to post/search in whichever aosp rom you're trying. The issue I think will be specific to it. Also consider joining the v40 tele group (invite is at top of lineage thread), I know I've seen others post this same problem but not sure if any solution has been found.
cheers
I actually broke my phone even worse last night, used the "erase all" in QFIL and had no partitions. Managed to recover via rawprogram0.xml. This seemed to fix the WiFi issue, the issue wasn't ROM specific really as I tried multiple ROMs. I think I had somehow partially broken my modem partitions. Thankfully I had them backed up, as after flashing rawprogram0 I had IMEI = 0. I will 100% always backup modem/efs moving forward!!
Thanks for all your help, I think I'll be doing a write-up on my flashing w/ this ROM, what an adventure. I know LG isn't making new phones, but I don't feel as wasteful because QFIL is for many phones.
