Camera artifact with IcySNAP - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! It's the first time to use a custom rom and so far most things work fine except for the camera that shows a weird black artifact in the middle.
Any solution?

Don't overclock phone. Try re flashing if it doesn't help.

[Q] after camera phone wont wake up

Hi,
I have this wierd problem with my sensation. I found out that if i have my camera on and it falls a sleep it wont unlock any more. no ring nothing.buttons glow but a solid black screen. The only way out is a battery pull.
It's with photo camera and video camera mode. no other apps suffer fom this.
I've tried other roms but nothing. I currently run ARHD 3.6.7
I found out on accident but it is realy annoying me now
Any of u with the same problem or ideas?

Hi,
Go into Bricked Kernel post, there is a .zip file called, CAM-FIX.zip
Flash that, magic will happen =]
Thanks guys, I've all ready flashed an other kernel and it works all fine now.
CAM-FIX.zip on the other hand is only for sense 3.5 and I really prefer sense 3.0
The camfix patch is so the camera can even function in the first place, it does not fix this issue. Without the camfix, if you try to use the camera the screen just goes black and the phone freezes. This issue however is an intermittent one, where sometimes when you exit the camera you get the black screen and freeze. Doesn't happen all the time, but it's definitely the kernel at fault.
To the OP, if in your case it's only happening once the screen times out, you could always use tasker to make it not timeout when using that app?

I Need Help!

When I open the camera app, the front camera shows just a black screen but when I switch the camera over to the back it works perfectly. So after I found this problem I started experimenting with the app and I found that when I switched from the back camera to the front the front camera started to work but this has only happened once and now after it has stopped working all together even when trying to switch the cameras. I tried taking a picture with the front camera and it comes up with an error 'Cannot connect to camera ' so I Googled this error and people on other forums with different devices said that doing a factory reset will fix the problem so I also tried this using CWM but it still shows the black screen, so guys and gals what do you suggest?
Help much Appreciated
Thanks
Edit: Here are some pics
Edit 2: On latest revolver rom with netformer kernel

[Q] Weird camera flash issue

I usually don't take pictures with flash, but today I noticed that the flash doesn't work properly in the camera app. When I try to take a picture, the the flash lights up while the camera is focusing, but when the actual picture is being taken it remains off, resulting into a very dark picture. I am running stock 4.4.4 + elementalx kernel. Has anyone else noticed something similiar and have any idea how to fix this?

Qiku 360 N5s ROOT/TWRP/Custom ROM

So I bought the BLUE Qiku 360 N5s and found how to Root it from GizChina.it BUT for some reason whenever I flash the root developer rom (TO ROOT PHONE) that they provided, my phones camera gets messed up. Now heres the weird thing, I bought my girlfriend the same phone but in BLACK and followed there instructions and her camera works fine. Only my phone for some unknown reason doesn't work the the freaking developer rom. Its frustrating because I want to get rid of all the CHINESE bloatware with the custom rom they provided (which works) BUT I need TWRP to flash it and I need to ROOT my phone before I can install TWRP. Some please send me some guidance cause I'm stressed and desperate!!!! THANK YOU

Hi there,
I recently bought the same phone, (Black version), and was finally able to root it after a month of struggling. Other than the camera not functioning, exactly what problems are you experiencing? You were able to fully root your GFs black version? Unlocked bootloader confirmed? Let me know. I'll give you whatever help I can.

Can you please tell me what you used to root it? Thats the only problem, after flashing the devrom the rear camera stops working and the front camera works but is grainy and all the functions for the camera stops working (flash beauty etc), I'm able to press on them but it doesn't do anything. The camera is still able to take a picture though. When I press the button to change it to the rear camera it freezes and stops working. I've tried downloading a 3rd party camera app but it doesn''t fix it eithier. Camera is still grainy on the app and the camera flip function doesn't work as well. Also I can't login to snapchat with this phone. I think its because the phone has a built in screen recorder so snapchat won't let me login. Can you help me with that as well? Thank you!!!

I unlocked the bootloader via fastboot after flashing Giz China's dev-rom. The only real roadblock to rooting it is having the developer software to bypass 360's proprietary bootloader restrictions. Once the dev-rom is flashed, you should be able to utilize all of the adb and fastboot resources as you would for a non-Chinese phone.
Now that you've described your camera problems a bit more, I have to say that it sounds like a compatibility issue. I can't be certain without testing it, but the dev-rom has a lot less bells and whistles than the stock rom, so it's quite possible that the dev-rom is missing the necessary files for running all of the extra camera filters. The dev-rom is just a temporary fix to allow you to alter the bootloader, and isn't ideal for daily use.
I recommend you try reflashing it so that you can get root access, or if you already have root access then simply flash a custom rom to replace it, and then see if your camera is still having the same issues. Don't forget that you'll need to flash SuperSU or Magisk or whatever SU app you're familiar with after flashing the rom. Also, if you try reflashing the dev-rom with 360's software, I recommend doing so via a Windows7 installation. I initially tried it via multiple Windows 10 machines and it failed horribly in all of them. It worked in a matter of minutes in each Windows7 machine though. Go figure.
GizChina also has a custom rom for the 360 n5s, not sure if you're aware of it or not. You can find it here:
ttps://rom.gizchina.it/360-n5s/
You might need to utilize Google translate if you can't read Italian .
Let me know if that helps or if you have more questions.
Yeah oddly it doesn't work with the blue phones. Only the black phone worked. I have 3 N5s's 2 are blue and 1 is black. The black one is completely fine and the two blue phones camera stops working after flashing the DevRom. I don't think theres anything I can do.

Have you tried flashing the custom ROM I suggested? There's no harm in trying. Just backup your files with TWRP, flash the custom ROM, if it works great, if not you can restore the Dev-rom and your old files.

The DevRom works and roots my phone but messes up my camera on the blue phone. The custom rom also works but it doesn't fix the problem I have with the camera... Keep in mind that I did this with a black N5s and it worked perfectly fine. But when I try it with 2 different blue N5s's they both encounter the problem with the camera. Only the black phone works properly. I have also flashed the blue phones ROM back to the manufacturers and it fixed the problem that the DevRom created with the cameras.

If that's true and the custom rom has the exact same issues running the camera filters then the only thing it could be is a lack of support built into the roms for those camera functions, or those functions are dependent on an app that has been removed from the new roms, but exists in the stock rom.
In order for either of those to be true though, it means that your black phone and your blue phone should have different camera functions, because the roms aren't changing, the only difference is your phone model (blue or black), so either you've accidentally erased something needed, or there is a series of support files that you could try installing back into the blue phone.
I wouldn't know which files though lol, you'd have to do some research. I doubt you will find much guidance on it by searching online. Your best bet would be to compare the file differences between your black phone and your blue phone to see which camera app files are on the blue one but not the black one (on the stock rom) and then try reinstalling all of those files and their support trees once you flash the dev-rom/custom-rom.
That is what I would do next if it was my phone.
Okay what about the snapchat problem where it doesn't let you login because of the built in screen recording feature in the phone?
