[Q] HTC Sensation Cyanogenmod 9 (Hypersensation 2.9) Camera Issue - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I am new to this forum and am having an issue with my HTC Sensation 4g. Since I've installed Cyanogenmod 9 -Hypersensation 2.9, the Camera as well as the Torch have not been working properly. I've tried going to the Applications and Clearing the Data as well as re-installing the ROM, but to no avail. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Also, whenever I try to access the Camera app it says "Cannot Connect to the Camera" and when I try to access the Torch app, it says "Unfortunately the Torch app has stopped working". I have also noticed that the GPS function does not work.

I have the same issue since I first installed a CM9 nightly on my Sensation XE.
Installing the CM RC1 and the CM Open Sensation did not fix this either.
I also tried the Android Revolution rom and had the same issues.
Would appreciate any suggestions that anyone has.

Did you fullwipe before installing CM9?
Because on my pyramid with cm9 RC1 the torch app and GPS both work fine and allways have.

Yeah - absolutely. If you don't do that on an initial install CM9 (or any other ROM) will very likely go into a boot loop.

If it helps, I did a system format with CWM 5.8.0.9 and installed cm10. Camera and torch came back, but only for a week. No it shows the same as before and for you. I will do a system format soon when i have time.
Good luck.
If you have bulletproof solution to make the camera work, pls share with us.

[Q] cannot connect to camera

The camera on my inspire stopped working randomly, it was working just fine and now all or the sudden it says cannot connect to camera when I attempt to open the application. I was running cm7 nightly 76 then just updated to cm7 7.1 RC1 thinking that would fix the problem ......no such luck. Any ideas?

My understanding is that the nightlies aren't guaranteed to be stable.
And going from a cm7 nightly to the rc1 wouldn't seem to me to be a sure-fire way of resolving the issue, seeing as both are cm7.
Perhaps try flashing a non-cm7 ROM and see if the problem persists?
After full wiping, of course.
Did you happen to flash any other kernels with your ROM's?

[Q] Reaper ROM problem

I'm having some trouble running the Reaper Rom. My phone is S-OFFed with revolutionary and using Hboot: 0.98.2000. I have been able to succesfully install the MIUI ICS ROM and CM7.
I have formatted and wiped everything from 4EXT recovery and then installed the latest Reaper 2.1. During the first boot it freezes at the ROM loading screen. After about 20 minutes it reboots and this time loads the ROM but then freezes again after about a minute. This then continues in a loop.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems and has any ideas about how I could fix this?
Thanks for any help.
Does this happen each time you clean instal it or just the once?
Possibly try to re-download it again in case you have bad download
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
I've tried installing it a few times and always the same problem. The MD5SUM value is correct for the download but is there still a chance it could be bad.
I also tried installing an earlier version Reaper 2.0 but had the same problem with that.
Could it be a specific incompatibilty between something on my phone and Reaper since the other ROMs I've tried all work OK?

No, your phone probably can't handle the default voltage settings. Search my posts on the reaper thread for a "stability patch" I posted for a early version. You're the third person with this problem.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try it tonight. Hopefully it will work since it seems like a graet ROM.
Thanks lowveld, the stability patch worked perfectly.

[Q] Both cameras stopped working

I was using viperS after coming from ARCHD and camera was working fine, until one day I got an error saying "cannot connect to camera" etc. I have tried flashing both roms again and cm10 and cm9 and still it doesnt work. I have searched and found no fixes for this. Anyone ever have a problem like this?
What version did you flash of the ViperS
ViperS 1.3.5 With True S off

I flashed 1.3.5 and I have the newer mainboard so I had to use the wire trick to s off to unlock bootloader and root
I had to do the wire trick also. Have you tried other versions of ViperS and before flashing the Rom did you try super wipe
ViperS 1.3.5 With True S off

No I had the newest version of ARCHD before I flashed vipers 1.3.5 and I have tried superwipe, Im not sure if this makes any difference but I found some test pictures from a market camera app and they were green and purple.

I ran a RUU and the problem is still here, It must be a hardware problem I guess? Shame I was actually using the 1080p video a lot and bought a fisheye for the phone.
Bump
I'm also having a problem with my sensations cameras.
Neither the front facing or main camera are working. When i open up the camera app it goes black screen then straight back to home. Also in zdevicetest both cameras have a red cross through them.
Things i have tried so far:
Superwipe
Reinstall rom (ARHD 6.8.0)
Tried a few different kernels (sebastianFM, stock, Faux)
Went back to stock via RUU
Replaced main camera module on mobo
So, noooo idea what to try next now. It did the same thing about a year ago and just started working again of it's own accord, but then a month or so later it stopped and never recovered on it's own. Heh.
Any thoughts anyone?
anybody have any solutions for this i got the same problem since i upgraded from gingerbread arhd too ics and since then my face cam stopped working my main cam works without problem

[Q] HTC Explorer cyanogenmod 9.1 wifi freeze

I've installed cyanogenmod 9.1 a couple of weeks back and it seems I have a wifi problem. At first it worked ok but lately it seems that the wifi freezes in "enabeling wifi" mode. It works fine if I reboot the phone but I'm tired of doing that evrey time I want to connect to my wifi. I've also tried something with "echo murata > /data/.cid.info...etc" that I found is used for fixing this for samsung galaxy s3, it worked at first use but then nothing.
A solution could be keeping the wifi always on but this drains the batery.
Hope someone can help me with this...Thanks in advance.

Hi, the reason for this is unknown.. but upgrading to Android 4.2.2 + seems to fix the issue. It was fixed in the kernel for those ROMs.. So only possible workaround is to upgrade to 4.3.1.. which is bugfree..
Edit .. : Now I recall that it was an issue with the wifi drivers in the kernel. If you can .. search for the wifi fix by Immortalyash .. He had done it in cm9.. as well as in minicm9. check it out.

this is a common bug in cm9 & minicm9 roms..4.3 roms don't have this issue. I'm using minicm9 with aries kernel oc & no wifi toggle issue yet..you should try aries kernel too maybe it'll solve your problem.

New problems...
So i've tried a bunch of different kernels starting with pandora r3...that didn't do anything, then i installed garuda v5 that fixed the wifi problem but made another one...that being it can't recognize the sd card anymore, i can see the second partition but sd card appears removed and when i take the card out i can still see the message sd card unexpectedly removed, so most of the apps are crashing, and also when i go to Settings->Storage i get "Settings has stopped". This also happens for Settings->Apps.
Now i've reflashed pandora but i think something from garuda remains because i still get the errors from it even with pandora installed. And i know this because every time i reboot, after the cm9 logo i get "Android is upgrading. Optimizing xx from xx apps". I've only seen this with garuda.
I wanted to try aries kernel now but cannot download it because i cannot see the card and i'm also at work so i'm not able to connect the phone to the pc and copy the kernel from recovery mode because of the restrictions on the computer....It's really messing my day...Should I do a clean install when I go home? What is the best cm version for this phone? I've also had 10.1 but this had problems with the alarm...like it only rang after i woke up and unlocked the phone...never at the hour selected...and also it drained the battery faster...Waiting for a good suggestion for this letter ...Thanks in advance!

For the sd card issue you can try multimount from the playstore
Also check the 4.3 roms as they are very stable and don't have any issues.
And before flashing any rom just do a factory reset, thats all...
Hit THANKS if I helped

Weekly 7 has some sort of issues.. read the thread before you flash anything. You can try weekly 6.. it doesnt have any known issues.

not much..cm9 is build for hdpi devices & minicm9 is for mdpi devices so it flies better on our pico.
I've installed cm10.2 weekly 6 and it works fine...a bit laggy sometimes but it's stable...now i'm having trouble increasing internal memory. I tried mounts2sd but it messed things up...

You can try int2ext+.. it works fine.. just backup your apps using titanium backup or helium or similar and reflash the ROM with int2ext
Ok so finally I've managed to make everything work. First I tried to increase the memory using int2ext+ but it got stuck in cm logo loop, or I didn't wait enough I don't now, but then i reflashed using int4ext+ and it worked like a charm . So thanks everyone for the feedback and have a nice day...Cheers!
my experiences for htc explorer roms
more than 40 different rom and kernel for a long time I did try.
1-original stock rom-telephone conversations is extremely slow and sometimes do not sound or sound from the other side
2- CM7 - do not even need to comment ... very very impractical .
3- cm9 do not have any problems except for the opening of wifi for everyday use . There are original rum they use a much more streamlined and spacious
Everything was excellent but the 4- cm -10 is based on telephone interviews with purpose robot voice problem. solved the problem with different kernel installations
5- cm - 1.10 robotic voice problem ..
6 - cm 10.2 ( 4.3.1) and freezes a lot of memory problems programmer jobs Even though there is a friend that is useful for cm9 combinations up there and he's coming rom with different kernels .
Result : the value to be used as a result I have seen many times rom Trials following : Vanir AOSP (thanks 7alvi ) + sakindia aries 767 mhz oc kernel 3.5 stable and smooth with use .. If I find a single fault for making a phone call notification panel wide-screen mode by turning itself down opening.its got a lead on the issue .:good:

I don't know why you faced so much issues because for me there are no such problems..only cm9 wifi toggle issue was there before using aries kernel & ofcourse cm10.1 bluetooth toggle issue. I never faced robotic call or freezing problem on any rom.

[Q] Touch Screen Not Working with Non-Sense ROMs

Hello,
I've used Cyanogenmod 9 with my sensation for while sometime ago with no problems. Then I flashed other ROMs to try them out. I've been using ViperS C2 3.1.3 for sometime and saw albinoman's cyanogenmod 10.2 version. So i wanted to give it a go.
Now, my problem is that the touch screen is not working(power button and volume buttons are working though) with non-sense ROMs(cyanogenmod, virtuous inquisition) but it's working with stock, arHD, viperS etc.
I've tried "RUU_Pyramid_HTC_TUR_1.45.468.2_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_219996_signed" and flashing 3.32 and 3.33 (separetely) then flashing cyanogenmod 9, (stable and some nightly builds), inquisition, also tried albinoman's cm 10.2 but nothing worked for me. (Also tried the things above with "RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.33.401.53_Radio_11.76A.3504.00U_11.24A.3504.31_M_release_280871_signed".
I've rebooted after flashing cm via adb to see if that works( read somewhere that this solved someone's problem.)
Always did factory reset and wiped the cache + dalvik prior to flashing any ROMs.
I'm using CWM as recovery but tried with 4EXT (pretty sure that does not make any difference though)
I really want to go back to cm ( Although viperS is a good ROM IMO i'm looking for something lighter).
Any suggestions?

Thanks for the link but it's not working. It's either saying launch app fail(diag part) or android readfile info error(flash part) eventhough i'm super cid and have the right firmware for it (<1.18). But i'll ask there as well, so thanks.
Any other suggestions ?
i have also flashed this rom a few days ago on my htc sensation and my sensation got hang on home screen, i tried flashing 3 times and same problem, after all i flashed another rom.
