Hi everybody,
I've been having issues with my Samsung Galaxy SII Skyrocket. The camera won't work anymore, whenever I start it it says "Unfortunately Gallery has stopped working" . I tried everything I found on the web, I cleared the cache, I cleared the data, I disabled and and re-enabled the app and I did the same with every app that was camera-related. I have re-installed Camera.apk from the root-explorer too...Since that wasn't working I restored factory settings but that didn't really make a difference either. I really have no idea what else I can do, is the camera just broken? or any other ideas?
Thanks a lot in advance!

this ^^^ Odin back stock ICS and see if u get it working, but it personally just sounds like a permissions issue, did u try a fix permissions through recovery, or even ROM manager ?

First of all i want to let you know that some times the camera works and some times it doesn't. I take like 3 photos and it crashes...
I have just tryed to Fix Permition throught recovery and it doesn't work too...

Thanks

That's the whole point. To wipe everything and install a factory image. You didn't do any of that

It could be a sdcard issue or camera hardware
Remove sdcard , then try the Odin restore, then wipe caches and do a reset. Reboot , let it settle, then try the camera

what everyone is trying to tell you is, yes, Odin back to stock and then see if you have the same camera problem. If you do its probably hardware issue. Until you do that no one can tell you what the problem is.

I hear ya GoS. Not only am I surprised it went through, this is the first time I have ever heard of an OTA being pushed to someone's phone without them getting a prompt and clicking on the prompt to accept the OTA.

were you using the pit file in combination with the full stock EE4 file? You have to use both together at the same time in ODIN
I'm using Samsung_Charge_ED2_Full.tar.md5 and the charge.pit file ?

Here's a link to the stock UVLF4 tar you have to download unzip and use Odin to flash.

To get Odin and the Pit File refer to KOnane's thread on how to flash back to stock.

Check your imei to check and see it's not borked that causes issues with kies. Also try uninstalling and reinstalling kies sometimes it has problems after using Odin.

1. Mobile odin, however I've personally never used it. There are probably guides out there somewhere how to return the phone to stock.
2. You may still be under samsung's warranty period, they don't care if your phone is rooted and will fix hardware problems. They will flash the most recent stock rom and firmware they have to your phone so you'd have to re root it.

Thanks for your help I was able to get a usb connection enough and I used Odin on my laptop. The only problem I have now is that the custom unblock symbol appears when I boot up the phone. Any idea how to remove that now that root is gone? Ignore the following words...my phone won't let me edit them out. Thanks again.
Edit: it looks like the file I used was a 4.0.4 image. For return purposes is it fine if it's the older version? There should be no signs of root now. I'll keep checking for updates though

I would, if you have an ics rom they will be able to tell something is off. It should accept an OTA update. If you can odin again, use the vrblk3 image and accept the ota to vrbmb1. It may not be updating due to to the jump from ics to the most recent base. That will make sure you're completely back to stock, with a locked bootloader, and a stock recovery.

I would, if you have an ics rom they will be able to tell something is off. It should accept an OTA update. If you can odin again, use the vrblk3 image and accept the ota to vrbmb1. It may not be updating due to to the jump from ics to the most recent base. That will make sure you're completely back to stock, with a locked bootloader, and a stock recovery.

Hmmm. I odined back just see and it works for me. How are you flashing it?
Also this should be moved to q&a section.

can you post me or point me to the odin files? i got the 4.0.4 from the sammobile website unziped the zip and flashed the .tar file. after that is done flashing it says (myphone) "samsung galaxy s3" then the blue recovery booting, then it still shows the unlock icon..i understand id have to wipe in recovery but it just fails after.. if you really did odin, could you post the files you used and give me a step by step.. it should be much app.!
I'll put it on my drop box later when I get home again.

If you look for the thread with root66 it should tell you exactly what to do, but I can post it up when I get you the files.

I've look through too many with no luck and if you tried it and it worked I feel good about you posting them and telling me your steps.
