Unable to start the camera? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Has any of you guys got this message and if so what did you do to fix it?

Might wanna give a bit more info; rom, kernel etc...
Also, this should be in q&a section.

I just got a new replacement phone from insurance. It was 1.73 firmware. After unlocking and trying multiple jellybean ROMs (AOKP, CM 10.1, and viper) I have yet to have a working camcorder. When I switch from camera to camcorder it force closes the camera app until a reboot. Not sure if this is the same as OPs issues.

Problems with liquid ics MR3

Hello guys I'm new, but have been looking at the forums for over a year. My problem is when I flash the newest liquid ics mr3, my stock camera always force closes, and sometimes it will work but the front camera will take pics upside down, also when I try to use camera zoom fx the picture will have distorted color lines at the top of the picture. Is there any fix to this. I'm tired of 2.3.7 lol. Thanks in advance!

Sounds like you didn't actually get the update downloaded.
The updated one can be found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?tc4qkf7ut3z2bn6
Make sure before you install, you do a full wipe. Wipe data 3x, cache, and then dalvik.
Flash and enjoy.
And if the problem persists, run a fix permissions.
And if that still doesn't work out, let us know.

Well it's actually the rom, they haven't worked out video or the front camera. Mine force closes too.

Yeah, the front camera is still a known issue. That is normal for now.

Thanks bud, didn't know it was a known issue ^_^ I'm sure it will be fixed soon, liquid rocks! Oh, I've always wondered what smartassv under the cpu setting, is it a power saving mode or? I put it on demand. And are there any other kernels that work with this awesome rom? I've tried tiamats, simply didn't work, phone wouldn't boot up.
Sent from my Thunderbolt using xda app-developers app
The issues we have with the camera are kernel related and probably won't be fixed until we get official source.

I second this claim.
Verizon is the hold up and has been for a little while. It's not HTC's fault. They've done what they needed to.

Any word on when this so called source for the camera will be released cant we just get it from another carrier that has already released it?

The only kernel that will work for the thunderbolt is a thunderbolt kernel.

More than likely to sell more phones though I won't say HTC is completely innocent. This OTA should have been out about a year ago.
As for the formatting part.. yes. format cache, data, and dalvik but they forgot to mention it never hurts to format system. A Factory reset does not touch the system partition as that's where the OS resides. If you don't format that as well then you're just flashing one rom over another leaving extra files that could either conflict with the rom or flat out cause Force Closes.

Photosphere camera app

Does anyone have an installer for the 4.2 camera app. I used it on a TW room (can't remember which) and i loved it. I flashed an unofficial cm10.1 and lost it. I tried searching and only found details for the gnex

just know there has been some issues using 4.2 photsophere camera on 10.1; you have to touch screen to focus, or it will lock up. would suggest reading 10.1 forum in Original Android section
:cyclops:
Yeah, just don't post any questions there.

Touchscreen during calls on AOSP rom

Anyone have an issue with the touchscreen not disabling during calls. My ear presses things apparently and I haven't been able to disable the touchscreen. This has happened to me on every AOSP rom so far. Is this a known bug?
Are you using a custom kernel?
Sent from my One XL using XDA Premium
I'm using jacobs kernel now however its happened on every AOSP rom i've tried regardless of kernel
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
I usually just hit the power button after taking a call to lock it.
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda app-developers app
I've only experienced it while using custom kernels. Using the stock kernel built into the rom it's never happened to me.
Sent from my One XL using XDA Premium
I'm going to reflash tonight and see how it goes, having signal drops and issues now as well. So hopefully a flash will fix
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
How did you go?
Sent from my One XL using XDA Premium
Signal issues have improved I also updated to the 3.18 modem. However the in-call touchscreen issue persists it didn't occur for the first few hours on stock kernel but then came back.

Camera flash

Hello everybody. I noticed earlier tonight that my camera flash isn't working on my galaxy s3. I'm currently rooted and running PAC man ROM. I tried flashing back to a stock ROM already and that did nothing for me so I'm not sure where to go from here. Anybody else had this issue? How did you get it fixed?
Sent from my S3 using xda app-developers app
Unfortunately it sounds like it might need warranty replacement if you have it. What happens when you try using torch or a flashlight app. Does the light come on then. Did it accidentally get dropped.
Sent from my GT-P5113 using xda premium
It hasn't been dropped or anything. I get nothing with the torch/flashlight apps either. If I end up doing a warranty replacement I just need to flash back to an official Verizon ROM and stock recovery correct?

I get the same thing with quickpic.
Also auto briteness isn't working. Will get some logs up in the dev thread.
Thank you guys for giving us beanstalk! The ROM is great so far we already know WiFi isn't as strong but feels like it's stronger after running it for a bit. Camera does fc but was able to view photos in gallery. I noticed the torch doesn't work and that includes the flash when taking photos I'm sure you guys were aware. Anyway its my DD, beanstalk is sick! Don't think twice just flash it :thumbup:

So, I know that if you flash CWM 10.2 you won't be able to flash anything that isn't 10.2, but what if I restore a backup will it 'restore' regular CWM orrr.. ?

I can confirm fast burst camera works fine.
With the gallery or 3rd party gallery rebooting the phone. I had to hide my videos (mp4s). After hiding them from the media scan it works fine.

Interesting, I'm about to re-flash the new build that he posted this morning, and then I'll try that. I never had issues with the gallery and I'm assuming that's because I didn't have any videos? Anyways, Thanks!
Finally had some time to flash. Did a complete wipe and empty internal/external SD cards.
No issues at all besides camera not working. Any other camera app works fine (snapchat, instagram, facebook)
WiFi works great. Cell data works great.
Looking forward to a plain CM 10.2 ROM
EDIT: I'm also on the herc JB radio
