[Q] Messed up the Front Flash after changing it's intensity - Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime / J7 On NXT (Exynos7870)

my girlfriend used some application to change the front flash intensity of my SM-G610M and then uninstalled it because it did not work, at least not immediately, because after restarting the phone the flash does not work in the camera app anymore, instead the screen flash mode is being activated. What's worse is that it does not remember which app she used so I can't try to revert and I've already flashed other ROMs trying to fix the problem. Regardless of the ROM I come to install, the flash works and then stops working with time, even in the stock ROM...
Does anyone know which app can be the one that was used? Or what I can do to solve this? I'm using the NovaOS Nougat ROM right now

Camera.apk fc on cm7 stable

Soooo I've been using cm7 since it was still nightly 1 but I havent really had any wonk issues. However recently my camera, no longer works, the app loads fine but when you attempt to take a pic it force closes.... Heres where it gets strange apps that use the camera like google docs the camera works fine.... The other camera apps in the market work fine just not the stock camera app..
Has any one else had these issues?

Has this occurring since you flashed it, or did it develop afterward? I would try clearing camera data see what happens.
it was random and I tried wiping camera data but I also tried reloading from titanium still no fix
Then maybe you will need to either factory reset or do a clean install.
Similar story
My camera app randomly stopped working recently. Not upon an update, but randomly. (CM7 stable) I wiped the device, reflashed the ROM/Gapps, and it still is broken. When you tap to launch it, it just restarts the device (same if launched from another app, such as barcode scanner, etc.). I also tried deleting its data, to no avail.
Anybody figure this out?
What version is your radio/baseband (Settings -> About Phone -> Baseband)? We go off the two sets of numbers after the underscore "_". Something like 4.06 or 5.08...
Mine's 5.08.00.04
Try a more recent version of CM7. Much have been updated since RC1.
If still having problems a clean wipe usually does the trick.
Sorry, my bad. This problem started with CM7. I then clean wiped and tried CM7.1.0 RC1, and that's what's running right now (with no difference on the camera).
When you wiped the device, was this through ROM Manager? If so, you may want to try a system-only wipe. Under clockworkmod you can do it in the mounts and storage menu. If you are running amon_ra, you will need to use a flashable zip that will wipe it for you. Temasek has one somewhere in here http://mediafire.com/temasek
Then reinstall CM and gapps. This won't cause any data loss.
I had wiped it from ROM Manager, so I followed your instructions (I am running clockworkmod). Unfortunately, that didn't change anything.
I been running CM7 stable for two weeks and that is one complain I have the picture quality sucks compare to stock android, I have to play with the contrast,saturation and sharpness every time to take a decent picture. As Far as the Camera bugging out on me I don't have any issues.
Did anyone manage to fix this problem WITHOUT taking it to the service centre?
For some reason, I still believe this is a software issue and not a hardware one.
Anybody?
Yeah, my feeling is it has to be software too, but I can't for the life of me seem to solve it. Anybody else have this issue??

I've been an omnirom users for the good 6 month, and everything worked as expected with few glitches here and there however after version was bumped to 4.4.4 camera has been very unstable and keep crashing with "camera can't connect" and only reboot works this has been most inconvenientl... Tried to reflash, wipe, do the clean install tried different kernels... Same thing... Today phone rebooted automatically and got stuck on "Android is starting apps" without any success, tried to dirty reflash didn't help, had to do the Clean one...
Anyone else experiencing similar issues, any fix available?

I am experiencing issues with the camera as well. I am on 4.4.4-20140709-i777-nightly.zip and on first reboot, the camera was not taking pictures. When switching from photo to video, the resolution drops drastically. It took several restarts and now I can say it's taking pictures, but taking videos freezes the app, and other 3rd party video apps.

It can be a bit hit and miss, sadly. I use gapps provided by paranoid android, and the latest boeffla kernel (test branch).
How i usually install is this:
Rom
Gapps
Reboot and get set up
Back to recovery
Install kernel
Flash camera fix
And for good measure, wipe dalvik and cache.
Like i said though, it isnt a guaranteed fix u.u you can blame proprietary licences for that. Making lives difficult.

Thanks for your reply.
TWRP was already installed, I rooted, flashed Omni, flashed one modem, wifi didnt work, flashed another, that sorted it, flashed GAPPS, no camera, wiped everything, tried again, not working, wiped again, installed camera fix, not working, wiped again, not working, installed again, wiped again, etc, etc. Still not working
Edit : was on 2014-07-26, updated to 2014-07-28 and all working !!
Hello,
I have same problem with omni-4.4.4-20140730-i9300-NIGHTLY.zip, and other, older 4.4.3 versions !
I also have this problem on 4.4.4-20142728-i9305-nightly, and sometimes i take one photo then the camera app freezes. Tried the fix at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/17-fixed-camera-app-lib-cm-aosp-roms-t2505973 i like the camera app much more from the fix fyi, this is making me considering changing rom.
And one other problem i have with this rom is that, every option that is enabled in the rom as default i have to disable it and the enable it again to make it work.
I have not changed the kernel or any other tweaks or anything, just flashed rom with a clean flash

I think you do. I tried it once in cwm and it failed, it could also have been a different issue but it works fine with the boot.img of the zip. Just keep in mind to store the zip on the internal storage before you flash the kernel and after wiping it.and that the recovery menu is very dim, you should avoid bright conditions.
Video or pictures
I would like to see how the cyanogenmod works on the Z3 Compact. Could you send me a video or some pictures?
Thanks!

My Bluetooth headset was acting up when i had the built in equalizer (AudioFx) turned on , try to turn it off and see if it helps.
I also installed viper4android instead which is way better.
Thanks, this worked for me

I've just installed with cyano recovery, everything was fine..
I want to report that somethimes the mic recorder loss some seconds while i'm using it..i've just updated now the nightly
need to test it again
anyway i'm really happy, the phone for me is now really faster than the stock rom.
Camera button
Anyone figure out how to remap the camera button yet?
So i'm kind of a noob here I guess but I thought to install this one would need to have their device rooted (like I had) and I have it on my device working perfectly, the only problem is the phone is telling me that it is not rooted and thus not letting me use titanium backup and greenify etc.
Is it just me, or is the Auto Updater not rebooting to recovery after downloading the cm-12-20150214-NIGHTLY-z3c -
I did extract and ABD'flashed the boot.img
And theres still an issue with the LED brightness and audio engine wakeup ( Sound seems dim at first, and sometimes notification audio is skipped, almost like it is in hibernation and cant always get out of it ) , cant seem to find it in the fixlog or changelog either
I just got cm12 setup on my galaxy tab 8.4, the only issue i notice thus far is that im finding it impossible to set a different wallpaper on my lockscreen from my gallery pics... If i want to use one of my personal backgrounds i have to use the same as my homescreen. The only way to change just the lockscreen background is to pick one from a theme i downloaded but that option sucks because i never use theme backgrounds... Anyone have a workaround or is that something well have to wait on in another nightly? I was able to do this easily in cm11, just had to go to lockscreen in settings and themes and i could pick it there

Go to Settings, Developer Options, then a few settings from the top you will see "Root access", click it and choose "Apps and ADB" or just "Apps only" (if you don't use ADB).
After root access is enabled you can install SuperSU from the Play Store (or just use the CM root access if you don't want SuperSU).....
Thanks that worked perfectly!
Another problem though (or else me just being silly and overlooking something simple) that when I boot to recovery it brings up the Cyanogenmod Recovery and there is no option to Backup my files. The only options I have are to wipe everything or reboot.

When you flash boot.img from the nightly .zip file you get the CM Recovery. You are correct in that there is no backup option. Use Titanium or some other app to back up your stuff. You can also use a different recovery but you may run into a different problem where the phone identifies itself as "aries" and won't flash the ROM. The CM Recovery takes care of that problem.
Anyone found a fix to the dim notification led issue? I think its related to the CM recovery. Anyone that can confirm this issue aswell?
I have a tab pro 8.4 running cm12 latest nightlies and i cant get adblock plus to work on it. Ive tried everything. It ran beautifully on cm 11 but on cm12 it FCs either right after u launch it or sometimes i can almost get done downloading the site block list. I have the wifi only version of the sm-t320 if that helps. Any ideas anyone? Either a way to fix it or an alternative app?

A couple of issues I've run into is sometimes bluetooth audio gets sped-up so my music sounds like it is playing a 2x speed (Google play music) and I'm unable to activate any accessibility services (I can get into the cancel or ok screen but can't click ok).

Unable to unlock my lock screen after installing xpoosed.

Hi guys..
I have recently rooted (supersu) my j7 prime g610f (7.0) after installing dm-veriry pypass and twrp and then flashed xpoosed framework and tried aome moudles out and everything seemed to be fine .
Untill i rebooted to activate a moudle and i found that the lock screen doesnt want to unlock although the pin is right( just stands still for 2 seconds and then screen turns off and i repeated the process and same thing ) ..
I managed to unlock my phone through the website and tried other lock methods and i found that every method isn't responding aswell !
I then disabled all the models and denies all root access apps and rebooted and same thing happens.
I really need some help as i cant leave my phone unlocked.
Thx.

1) Easiest way is to wipe and restore a backup in TWRP from when your device was working properly if you've hopefully already made one.
2) Another option is to boot into TWRP and go into file manager and delete the folders of the Xposed Modules you installed that you think might be causing the problem(in "/data/app/", "/data/data/, etc)". Then reboot and see if that fixed the problem. You have to be very careful when installing Xposed mods, especially when they're meant to tweak the system in some way, that they are actually meant for your device, particularly with Samsung Touchwiz devices that have heavily modded software.
3) Make sure that you're using the correct Xposed version for Samsung too, as this can cause problems with properly booting up the device.
4) Last case scenario you might want to consider wiping and reflashing your rom. Then at least you can make sure your touchscreen digitizer still works and can redo everything one at a time to see what's causing the problem.
I hope one of these suggestions helps.

Truthfully, your best bet while you have your device up and running is to backup all your apps and data with something like Titanium Backup or even sync them with the Samsung Cloud. The cloud reinstalls everything and sets your device configuration back to the way it was. Then, if you have a custom rom installed, wipe it in TWRP and reinstall it. If you're running stock, then don't wipe. Just go to the Sammobile website, download the latest firmware for your specific device and reflash it to the device with Odin. This generally fixes all system problems with a device, while preserving your app data.
Alternately, you can also try searching XDA for kernels that are made for your device that have a higher performance and try installing one of those to see if anything improves. As far as the screen going off early too, you can always check in "Settings/Display/Screen Timeout" to see what it's set for and change it to the max screen on time. It really sounds like you may have broke something system wise with Xposed or an Xposed module though, which is very easy to do, so I would really recommend starting over fresh. If you're on stock especially, as you really have nothing(data wise) to lose.
