Sensation with Reverted AOSP
I was testing out the Miui Camera for CM7. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15307536)
Installed via Root Explorer. Copied original Camera.apk>sdcard, MiuiCameramod>system/app renamed to Camera.apk, changed permissions and owners. Reboot
Camera works fine. Gave me an option to zoom in camera mode and camcorder mode, onscreen. Played around with features.
Decided to revert to Classis CM7 Camera.apk.
Removed Camera.apk (miuimod version), copied Original Camera.apk from sdcard to system/app changed permissions and owners.
Using the stock camera now, the ZOOM of the camcorder is permanently stuck to up. See attached picture.
The zoom bar doesnt move when touched. This only occurs on CM7 ROMs.
Steps Taken to resolve:
Using the Miui ROM, camera has full functionality. Took videos and pictures to try "kick" the hardware back into working order. No difference.
Using the Stock HTC Sense Rom, camera has full functionality. Took videos and pictures, same as above, no kick.
Using CM7 Roms, Video Recording is Zoomed permanently. Tried using different market video apps with mixed recording views. Some zoomed some not.
Reflashing the Same rom does NOT work. Even after Factory Reset + Cache + Dalvik clear.
Updated to bricked kernel. (I thought I might try it as some camera dependancies are from the kernel.
So basically im trying to kick my camera(video recording) hardware out of its permazoomed mode in CM7.
Anyone have any ideas? How would one reset/resolve camera issues?
Also: For you sensation users: DO NOT flash the Miui Camera mod to your phone. Unless you want to be like me, and have a permanently zoomed camcorder.
Any help appreciated, Thanks.
Bump. Any ideas?
Flash your RUU, then root again and flash the ROM you had before the mod buggered things up.
OR super wipe and restore your nandroid you took before flashing the mod

I am trying to change the camera and the email in the Weapon rom to the black email from Faux's AOSP and also the camera from the same rom. I tried installing with the apk's but no go. The camera actually installed on my old Cliq (test dummie) just fine but wont on the G2x. I switched out the apk's in the rom zip and am going to attempt to re-flash it. My question is this: do I have to wipe everything and am I going to loose all my setting and rings (i switched the audio file in system with one that has the tones I want) and whatnot. Or will all that remain the same if I flash overtop this rom?? Thanks

The original mod is over in the i9300 forums by UnKnown (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746611. I have tried this mod as is and I found that i could change storage from internal to external sd but when I tried to record video is 1080p the camera would fc. So all I did was delete the media_profiles from the system/etc folder in the zip and rezipped it and now I have a fully working camera that recorded I 1080p without crashing. By deleted the media_profiles in the mod you lose some of the frame rate changes that the op made but you still have all of the profiles that came with the asop rom that your flashed.
This was used with unknowns mod version 1.61
Has pinch to zoom as well as many other options in camera menu
If you have issues with the mod not working then follow these steps
1.wipe gallery data
2.delete gallery2.apk in system/app
3. Reboot recovery
4.go to format/mount and mount system
5. Flash zip
6. Reboot and enjoy
Here is the mod http://goo.gl/aB4yn

Yes i am taking pictures fine while recording. You must press the volume down button to snap the picture while recording. Try reflashing after wiping cache and dalvik.

Is it just me that the camera freezes up when you take a picture with the front facing camera?

It's not just you. Until the original mod is updated to the latest CM10 camera features that will continue to be broken.
I dont have ten posts so I have to post here:
I installed CM10-OpenSensation2-Pdroid last night. I went straight to that from Viper. There is no camera widget. I tried to access the camera from the lockscreen and it said "could not connect to camera".
Wha happen?!?
Did you flash gaaps? I run paranoid Android and have a camera, in fact it's the newest camera! You must flash 4.2 gaaps with these roms. If you did flash gaaps and still no camera, full wipe, reinstall, it should give camera. Although I don't run that Rom, I'm sure gaaps will give camera. Hope this helps. Best wishes

Try to re-download the rom, full wipe and reinstall all.
The gapps you need are the latest for android jb. You'll find them on goo.im.
Gapps also DON'T interfere with camera.
Did all of that, but wiped everything one last time and did it all again. Still no camera or Gapps (had to install Gmail and Maps) despite the fact I installed the file (gapps-jb-20121011).
Also, another minor problem: Though the ROM mostly runs smoothly, on a few screens here and there and on most notifications the text gets laggy and leaves a trail.
Gapps don't include apps like Gmail or Maps.
It includes the apps for your Google account and services.
OS2 is still in beta for me. You should try the Kang of bruce and manually replace Clock and Camera.
OS2 is still in its initial stage and I have seen so many users complaining about camera..
Try another ROM and see if you get camera..

Fixed it. Thanks
Hi guys, Nexus 5, stock but rooted, 4.4.2
I tried installing a sony camera app (flashing the zip in CM recovery), it didn't work, but it also stopped the Google Camera from working (I get the "Camera has stopped" error).
I've removed the sony camera using toot explorer, I've tried uninstalling Google Camera updates and re-installing, I've also flashed Jishnu's "restore to stock" zip file from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/mod-jishnus-camera-t2516061
Still no luck, can anyone help so I don't have to reinstall everything?
thanks
I've done a couple of factory resets and it's doing the same when it boots
Is the camera apk in the correct folder with correct permissions?
Permissions should be rw-r--r-- (have a look at other apps in the same folder and copy their permissions).
Once you've done that reboot to recovery and clear Cache and Dalvik.
Here's the correct locations for the two different cameras:
New Google camera (com.google.android.Googlecamera-1.apk) = /data/app/
Older "standard" camera (camera2.apk) = /system/app/
Also make sure no traces of the Sony camera are left... check through your folder
Not saying it will 100% work, but worth a try if nothing else does!
The zip might have deleted some of the stock camera libs which are needed to load the stock camera. If I were you, I would backup and flash the factory images and then re-root and restore the backup! (TiBu)
Edit: Since it's just the camera, you could try flashing just the system.img and see whether the camera is fixed or not!
Hey guys,
I have some problems with the camera. I can take pictures with the main Camera but not Video. I get a green screen, the front cam working without problems. I delete the camera app files and do a reboot it do not work. I'm on lastest factory image with SuperSU v2.79SR2 + EX Kernel 1.03
Edit: I try Instagram and when I press the video capture button it get green too -.-
I delete art/cache, reflash vendor, delete camera app data nothing helps
Hey guys,
Few days ago I had some Problem with substratum (after flashing NOF26V Image the Cam works) Substratum don't finish to create overlay, to solve this problem reboot into your bootloader and flash the vendor image. So the Theme works again, but when I activate the Theme I can't make videos with the Main Camera. Front Cam have no problems and Main Cam can take pictures. When I wipe and reflash my ROM the Cam works -.-
Do anyone have the same issu?
