When you say "The thread" I'm assuming your talking about the EMBRYO thread? and if so yes I did. I read before i did the flash. If this thread is not the one your talking about then please be more clear of which thread you are talking about since there are a number of threads to choose from.
I have reflashed did cashe clear. made sure the md5sum is correct

Yeah i was talking about the embryo thread, in case this happened to someone else already then it might have been talked about. If you can't install any camera from the market it may be hardware. I would revert to your previous nandroid and see if it still works in that Rom

WiFi calling issue, stock rom

Just got myself a G2X, I rooted it everything is working fine EXCEPT WiFi Calling, it just says "enabling" has anyone heard of a fix for this yet?
I have the stock rom but I am rooted. I haven't flashed the new CM9 yet but want to get this thing working on the stock rom I have.. I read someone mentioned something about grabbing an old sim card? I have had zero luck finding one.
Is there a fix for this? any flashable solution? thanks.

Unfortunately camera has failed

Hi,
I am new to the skyrocket forums but have had a t989 since release. I recently rooted my brothers skyrocket and put aokp on it. Everything works fine except camera crashes on every launch. I have tried extracting the camera.apk from 4 builds and pushing it to system apps and still doesn't fix it. Does anyone know what's going on or how I can fix this?
Error message says "unfortunately camera has stopped"
@0|<¶ [email protected]|@×y
Anyone???
@0|<¶ [email protected]|@×y
Have you tried any other version of aokp like chiamara or a different kernel?
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium
I've tried cm9 nightly and aokp have not tried another kernel yet
@0|<¶ [email protected]|@×y
try InstigatorX's cm9 kernel, but use version 2.8
I used to see that error from time to time. But using the camera the second time would work fine.
try this build
http://r4ins.com/aokp/aokp_skyrocket_build-70312.zip
Ive been on it a few days now, yet to see that error.

Did you use one of the ics leak one clicks? I can't remember if that's how he fixed it or not.

I did actually use one of the ics one clicks, but that didn't fix the issue. It's odd because returning to stock using odin doesn't fix it either, yet audio and voip w/ skype still work just fine. One of your nightly builds temporarily gave me audio, but after a couple of hours it stopped working again.

I had the same issue and was only able to find it was something from my titanium backup causing it. I could load any rom and it would work fine. Soon as I ran my batch restore, my camera no longer worked , even on restore to stock. I then did a fresh install of a from, fresh install of all my apps from the play store, and brought over only the most essential data from tibu and haven't had the issue since.

The weird thing about it is it was just rooted and fresh install of everything ... I put it back to stock and camera is still not working I'm think it has to be hardware..

My Findings With TWRP

Well I was using Clockwork Mod. Then I foolishly Installed Clean Rom 4.5 final while using clockwork mod..got a soft brick -:splash screen would not boot...no access to the recovery...could not flash a recovery...but access to boot-loader :-...
Got the bricked sorted out and decided to move to TWRP..That didn't go well at all
Issues found after flash
1: Google contacts would not sync at all...no matter Rom I used
2: My dialer crashed...no matter Rom I used
Moved back to clockwork and all issues was solved
This Is only my observation and It may be different to others

If you have nothing good to say its best you keep your rear shut..if you don't agree why comment..
No one here can prove that my issue wasn't caused by TWRP..what I do know is that when I used TWRP I had those issues then I went back to CWM and It didn't.
In all rom installation I did full system wipe..and the Issue only happened with TWRP
A recovery causing rom issue ? First one i hear hey reflash the same rom whit twrp and let us know how it goes smarty..

Did it more than once and it didn't happen with cmw and yes a recovery can cause a rom issue
way back in the htc desire days certain rims could not be flash using certain recoveries because it caused issues...some users found that with a certain recovery the rom was more stable than the other
Just beware flashing something with an aroma installer with cwm. Bad mojo.
Lol make your OP clear you have flashed a rom whit a recovery not recommended FOR the rom ...
You didn't know it so you post this ..
I guess all you had to do on the rom thread is either read OP clearfully or ask of it is ok to flash whit twrp

yes it happened to me too google contacts sync and dialer crash and yes i found that twrp is the culprit of not clearing the data correctly.onle fix i found is switching recovery to cwm,clear the data,switch back to twrp and install a new rom and worked for me.
I've been using TWRP since the beginning on multiple One X's and never have had a problem.
Maybe OP didnt wipe correctly..

i love it, being able to mount usb storage from recovery is convenient and important (saved me from having to lock bl, then flashing stock)

As I said the soft brick was because I used the wrong recovery..that wasn't the issue..I already sorted that out..
my phone was stock..I rooted then flash TWRP then started flashing roms and I noticed the issue after that..I wasn't asking for help on this thread
all I was doing was letting people know what was happening to me while i was using that recovery..If xda belongs to the guys that never made a mistake while using a phone and don't want no one else to post then i wont..but all I was simply doing was letting people know what brought me to that point

I did all the wipe TWRP menu had to offer but TWRP was not wiping clean enough
Some people were made perfect and never made a mistake..they can do any and or everything so since there is nothing else to do with the life that they have they will sit and read a post and would be quick to make a judgment or start calling names..I admitted I made a mistake and I fixed it..then I found an issue while using TWRP only to point it out...The person that made the recovery may see an issue in the recovery that could be affecting certain phones and fix it..or someone else might had a similar issue and just give some input about it..
most of us are here because we like tweaking what we have and in doing so some make mistakes and others learn from it..its what XDA is about
Google contacts and dialer being messed up are known issues with CWM. They persist even after flashing other ROMs. It was likely a residual issue from CWM, not TWRP.

Synergy ROM (484) Clean install -- broken camera/GPS not connecting

As can be gleaned from the thread title, I install the latest Synergy ROM (484) and my camera app crashes as well as GPS failing to lock on. I have tried different camera apps and using GPS Status. Does anyone know of a fix, as I've tried searching through the 3000 page forum? LOL
Thanks in advance for any help
I just rewiped and flashed and now my GPS is working, but camera is still broken. :'(
Flash a different kernel. Like kt747 tw version.

Doubt if anyone has a fix because the ROM is not broken. I've used the last 3 builds and never had a problem. Download fresh and wipe and try again. I recommend starting with the included stock kernel. and oh yes, make sure you are on the correct modem firmware wince the ROM does not install that.
Bad download? Try downloading again.

Did you superwipe? Flash any firmware update?
Firmware is key. Not all roms have been rebased to match the newest. Make sure you flash the firmware with .Tz file. Seen pages of people with camera problems on synergy because of this.

I'm sorry if I implied the ROM was at fault, perhaps I am missing some step, but I did just now do a complete wipe (3x), re-downloaded the ROM and firmware, and it seems the only problem MY phone has is the Camera

Tried that. *Sigh* I think I am going to go to a different ROM, not having the Camera work is a dealbreaker. Whether it's ignorance on my part, or lack of documented resolutions for this problem that I have seen others have, I can't go this long without it.
Maybe flashing another ROM and coming back at a later time may solve the issue.

I had the same problem and I fixed it by flashing a different kernel. I used the kt47 kernel and Now everything works.

OP, try this if you havent been done with this problem already. its 4am for me right now and I'm tired as balls and was at my wits end but then after flashing god knows how many different options hoping the camera would magically come back...i flash the kt747 tw kernel and its all gravy now. I dont understand how. I dont want or need to understand how. I am thankful! :good:
