Waiting for SIM card and case before activating my new Nexus 5 32gb. I've been connecting to the internet on the phone through local wifi.
The phone was at 4.4.0 when I received it. It was/is stock, un-rooted.
When attempting to use the camera app, it was giving an message about not having a sd card (?huh?) and wouldn't let me take a picture most of the time. When it would occasionally let me take a picture, it would write a solid gray image that the gallery couldn't open (it would give an error message). I was able to get Cymera to take pics and work.
I side-loaded 4.4.1 to the camera and the stock camera worked and Cymera stopped working.
When the 4.4.2 update came out, I side-loaded the update. The camera is currently stock, un-rooted, with no sim card.
I used the camera app to take a bunch of pictures about 15 mins ago. I used the camera app and also took some pics with Camera fv-5 lite and with GIF camera.
I just looked at the images in the gallery and the images taken by the camera app are all solid grey and they can be opened by the gallery. The images taken by Camera fv-5 lite and GIF camera are all fine.
After seeing this, I then took a pic through the camera app and it wrote and viewed fine.
Has anyone else seen this behavior from the built-in camera app?
The gray files that were created by the camera app have creation dates of 12/31/1969 5:00 PM and can't be copied off the nexus. the other images that the camera successfully created were able to be copied off the nexus.

I updated to build 3/30 today from 3/16 and I notice that when I take a photo and try to edit it (either by applying a filter or using brightness adjustments) and I try to save it, I get a message that "com.android.gallery3d has stopped working" and it doesn't save the new photo. I've noticed that it does not crash on any photos I've taken before I updated to this build date. Can anyone out there confirm for me real quick if they are having similar issues and reply back your findings?
If no one else has this issue, I might just do a fresh installation and see if that corrects it.

I too face the same issue on my Galaxy Note - 10.1.0-RC0-n7000
My friend who owns another galaxy note also faces the same issue with Gallery editing.
Very irritating bug, this.
Still having this issue and I've done 2 complete wipes (factory format and system format both times and Internal SD card format the first time) since I've made this thread. I did notice that this happens almost always on 3:4 oriented photos as opposed to 4:3 oriented photos. I don't think there's any apps interfering with it since the only photo type app I have is Instagram. Any other ideas on what might be causing it?
Hello,
I am having problems with a second-hand skyrocket and the rear (main) camera. The guy who sold it to me told me he did something to it (software-wise) that broke the rear camera and it won't initialize or display/take pictures from it. I have downloaded a few different camera apps that would try to initialize or start the rear camera to no affect, but skype, google hangouts, and rear camera only apps work fine.
I have tried going from stock 2.3.6, stock 4.0.4, stock 4.1.2, and most recently both CM 10.1.3 and 10.2 nightly on it to no avail. Most recently on the CM roms, when I open the camera app, it opens (like all other camera apps will, with a black screen), but it says "unfortunately Gallery has stopped" where with the stock roms it will say the Camera has stopped.
I noticed a thread with a possibly similar theme here, but since that thread is a few months old, I'm referencing that one and starting a new one.
Additionally, I found a .zip file with individual camera firmware (or software updates) out there, at least 25 in fact in a 5.83mb zip with the following instructions
- Extract the .bin file to the internal sd card
- type *#34971539# into the dialer
- select "phone to cam FW write"

But no matter the firmware I tried to flash, and flash back to the SDEH0D (or back to any of the others), that didn't seem to help. I didn't try all 25, but I did choose about 7 ones staggered from that list.
Any other thoughts or comments, tests or experiments? I'd really appreciate any direction
I'm not an expert on the issue that you're having, But I have encountered a Gallery force-close when starting up the camera. In some of the newer ROM's available today, the camera and gallery are linked. Meaning you can swipe either left or right while inside the camera app and go into your gallery. Anyway, Seems to me that it goes a bit beyond just a software fix. Could be that the camera itself is broken. The only reason I say that is because you say that you've tried several different ROM's and some supposed software fixes, but it's still not working. I would say that if you can, try and find a proper fix that you can either flash in recovery or push to your phone using ADB. I'll do some digging of my own and see what I can come up with.
only just installed my px5 HU, and DVR is one of the main features I want as I want to replace the android dash-cam rear view mirror I had been using up to now.
I've bought the 3 camera's to connect to my HU(front rear and reverse), but the DVR app only seems to be able to record the front usb camera. I would like to be able to record both front and rear camera's at the same time - is anyone able to help try and get this working?
As mentioned, I previously had an android rearview mirror with front and rear camera's, it uses an app called fire-eye to record both front and rear cameras at the same time and had some quite good functionality built into the app setting, autostart, video quality, clips size , auto overwrite older files when memory card get full, permanent save options, timestamp, etc.
I've copied the fireeye.apk file from the dashcam, and installed it on my HU, but unfortunately the app won't start and throws an error, perhaps with little investigation, someone might be able to get it working ?
if you do want to try and get it working but need other files off the dashcam, please let me know...
Looking on 4pda.ru, there are posts ( incl. this by Malaysk: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=601161&view=findpost&p=42953325 ) saying that the fireEye app is dependent on the launcher in the dash cam {dxlauncher/daxunlauncher} the launcher is horrid and no one would want it,.
update: i've pulled the launcher from the dashcam and attached it below, please note it does not work on my HU, please dont hold me responsible if it messes with your setup, i've uploaded it in the hope that it might help someone with more skills than me to get the fireeye app working.
So after tinkering with this phone for quite awhile! With the help of another developer, we now have a decent working port of google camera for the razer phone. Portrait mode is not working in this version because portrait was introduced in version 5.1 and later. Also the razer phone has hardcoded front camera2 as legacy so there is no raw support so you will never get selfie portrait to work. Hopefully razer will remove this hardcode in Pie, but it's very unlikely. I have sold my phone so there will be no more development from me on this, I'm simply sharing back and actually CARING to have a decent camera!
First and foremost, you need to root your device and unlock the bootloader (recommended but does not have to), then replace all these chromatix files for color fix, using a file explorer of your type. I highly recommend Solid Explorer:

After you replace the libs, install the apk and shoot. Modified to have locked 35 frames in all conditions, with raw so you can edit these amazing pictures afterwards.

I tried replacing those files to "vendor/lib" and now it says Camera Error " Can't connect to the camera". Do any of you guys have the original files? I forgot to make a back up.

There's no way you get a Camera Error. Are you on the latest firmware for the Razer? I did this multiple times... I don't have the stock bc I sold it already as mentioned. You can do a factory reset or reflash the rom.
Works very well and seems to stable. Been using it for two weeks now and taken ~200 photos with HDR without a single crash.
Thanks for you work!
Hey can you do this for newer versions and can we get a port with telephoto let z
Wondering if someone can help me..
Each time i open a app that uses the camera, ie a qr code scanner or i use my camera in Chrome, the macro lens is selected. In th camera app i can switch lenses, so that is not a big issue, but many apps again like the QR scanner, don't let me do that. So there is no possibility at the moment for me to use my banking app.
I was on Wave OS 4.0 when the issue first rose. I had used the camera before with QR scanners, so before it worked. I have no idea what I did to make this happen and searched for an answer, but am at a loss.
Next i flashed the latest firmware V12.5.3.0.RJGMIXM and flashed WaveOS 4.8, but still the same thing.
Flashed Lineage OS , and same thing again.
Lastly, i used miflash to flash the stock image on my device via bootloader, but in MIUI i still have the same thing. Each time the macro lens is selected, i can see the little hairs on my skin.
Currently, i am not rooted anymore, but i plan to flash the recovery back. Anyone have any pointers to help me out?
