I'm having problems trying to get my ffc to work. When I try to switch it in the camera app it just closes. I can't get it to work with Skype or qik either.
You caught me at a good time for this.
I just restored my primary backup from Clockworkmod, the one I made right after getting root and superuser access.
I tried again the camera, using the stock camera app, both front and rear facing and was able to take pictures without issue.
I switched to video mode and recorded video from both front and rear camera's as well without a problem.
I'm interested in learning more about the stock camera.apk and how it works, so tell me some more about your problem.
Did you S-OFF and root your device?
Have you removed any system apps that came pre-installed?
Have you downloaded any new apps from any marketplace, or sideloaded any onto the device?
Have you rebooted and tried again?
Have you had any other problems with your device?
Any other info you can think of that would help post it up here, and i'll see what I can find out for ya.
I have s-off and rooted it. I flashed the deodexed rom in the development section. I removed almost all bloatware. This problem has been going on even before I used the s-off tool and rooted
Given that information, it's possible that you could have a hardware problem. The fact that you say this was an issue before you did anything to the device suggests that.
I haven't messed with the deodexed rom yet, so i'm not sure what your file system looks like - might be possible that your camera.apk file was corrupted before you rooted it, maybe replacing it with a new copy is something worth looking into.
I'm not sure if the people not running the deodexed version could send you a proper camera.apk file now, any thoughts on this?
After about 5-7 seconds of recording in 720p I was getting recording failed problems every time. It wasn't doing that before or at least not very often until recently. So I decided to update the camera firmware. I go to the camera firmware update screen by dialing *#*#34971539#*#* I selected phone to CAM FW Write and I go to update the firmware to version 2.0.3 it downloads up to 225/253 pieces then stops and says the update is a success, then it tells me to reboot. I reboot the phone with the volume down and power button, and I find out the camera firmware isn't installed properly. Now under camera info it is displaying.

I don't remember exactly what it said before but I know it said something different. The rear facing camera is now messed up and displaying green. This is happening with all the different camera apps that I tried on the market. I also did a factory reset, cleared the cache and wiped the data. Still I'm getting the same problem. The camera info is displaying the same thing to so I know for a fact that the factory reset didn't reset everything. Maybe someone here who has the same phone can help me out by dialing *#*#34971539#*#* and going to "Phone/CAM FW Ver Check." Tell me what it says if you don't know how to directly fix the problem. If someone here does know how to fix the problem it would be helpful though. I'm rooted and I'm currently running stock Froyo 2.2.1 if that helps.
Once I figured out how to root and flash with the Infuse, I didn't waste much time at all staying on Froyo. However, I've had video recording issues that ended up being caused by the kernel. I suppose it's possible that it could be an issue with the Froyo Community Kernel (I'm guessing/assuming that's how you rooted). Any particular reason you'd not want to just back up your apps and upgrade to Gingerbread?

I'm rooted and on gingerbread 2.3.6 now actually. It didn't fix the camera, but I'm able to go into the camera firmware settings and it's now showing

Every time I try to flash the firmware now it says "firmware update failed try again." I read somewhere that you have to remove the camera before doing a camera firmware update. I opened the phone up and it doesn't look like the camera can easily be removed and put back in.

I hate to keep harping on the same thing, but I'm not so sure it's a camera firmware issue, and you may be making a mountain out of a mole hill. If you happened to upgrade with Heimdall, and you're not already running one of them, it may be worth trying one of the kernels in this post, for ****s and giggles:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23118144&postcount=2
I've never had any issue with the camera, aside from what was caused by a kernel, so aside from that advice, I've nothing else to offer. Good luck.
help please. the camera works fine with stock roms, but since I flashed DU official 8.1, any intention to take a photo (regardless of camera app) makes the screen freeze (not force close, it just freezes while generating the photo, and the save animation does not play, and no photo is created ) except for the nav bar back and home buttons. this happens with every custom roms I have tried after the first event. I used to think it was a matter of DU rom, but it also happens with mokee, pa, liquidsmooth, mahdi, spirit and pac. I have tried several solutions like flashing cam libs, stock cam apps, reflashing custom rom, flashing custom kernels, but the only method that makes camera apps work again is flashing stock roms through fastboot. I have an xt1032. it only happens with the back camera, photos taken with the front camera are saved as usual and the apps don't freeze. please bring a ray of light into my case, I don't know what else to try.

Go to dhacker's cyanogenmod thread and search for a zip on the last pages. It flashes the stock camera + libs and everything else needed.
I was going through the same things you are and it worked perfectly

I uploaded it for you and everyone else having this problem. Hope it works
thank you, it seems the camera works for now. it is nice that it now receives updates in spite of using a custom rom. however after flashing this zip, dalvik cache for user apps was wiped (without me performing any wipe) and then the theme engine broke. I can't install any theme apks manually, and if I try to install one from the playstore, I get an error notification and the " uninstall" button becomes "install" again. also, themes installed manually appear to be of 0.00MB. I will reflash my current rom and post the results later.
EDIT: clean reflashed and immediately flashed the cam+libs zip. everything works thanks a lot!!

If I cant sort the camera out Anyone know how I can flash a copy of the stock 6.01 with twrp or odin, samsung wont let me have a download
Well, Hello.
Yesterday, I decided to re-get myself into rom flashing, as I was sick about oneplus usual delays about lollipop.
After I flashed cleanly first blisspop, and then switched to paranoid, I was not surprised about battery drain so I decided to comet-back stock by flashing the backup I've already made before all of this.
Now I have really enough about custom roms and bad battery-life, on this part imho stock has been better for me than whatever.
Globally no problems, but one annoying : call/dialer on the cm stock app.
The app/contacts works great, it is just that when I have finished to type the number and press the call icon, then black screen, the hardware buttons are active but when pressing back or whatever it doesn't respond..
Calls are working because I hear the voice but so can't stop it.
I was blocked on this screen, so recovery and reboot each time, pretty annoying.
Here would you think that a flashable zip file of the stock app would end the problem ?
Does I have to wait for the next ota to resolve this, or do I have to re-flash the 05Q ?
I tried first some alternative call app, like exdialer etc but it does nothing..
Ideas ?
I think this is solvable..
+ When editing the local user profile (top-left corner status bar) it is not working properly, the picture doesn't want to change as editing accounts etc..
→
To sum up,
I think that I will have to do again a clean stock-rom flash process,
Can I refer myself to these threads ?

I don't know what's broken in my system, so don't really know what to do for now,
to my mind it would be logic to re-install the stock system properly, so..
Thank you by advance, and waiting for your answers.
My attempt to install the OOS Cam bricked my phone.... so my question is Why did my phone got bricked exactly? I want to know what I did wrong since I really want to use the OOS Camera.So I was trying to get the original stock camera app to work on my device because the other ones looks horrible. I mean I have a kind of flagship device and the photo quality looks like my old cheap Huawei phone.
First I tried with an 3.x.x version of the app installed as an normal application. It works but the quality is still bad.
This is where I got that apk: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/apk-oneplus-camera-for-any-a11-custom-rom.4350205/
On Reddit there is a post that said if you replace the Camera.apk on /system/app/Camera with the OnePlus Camera it should work.
The result? It worked and the quality seems better!....but some functions of the app like video or changing the size of the picture crash the app. Now the phone got really hot for some reason. No idea why but anyways I decided to go "creative" and I analyzed the official OxygenOS Rom(This is where I got the OOS Camera apk) to see what files where related to the OnePlus Camera app and then I pushed it through ADB to the respective directories of my phone.
These are the directories that I added with their specific files:/system/priv-app/OnePlusCameraService/
/system/system_ext/priv-app/OnePlusCamera/
/system/system-ext/priv-app/OnePlusGallery/
Then I rebooted the phone expecting to see the OnePlus Camera working in all it's glory!...The phone got stuck in the boot logo.
The phone stays on the boot logo for some seconds, then reboots again but this time in Recovery mode and says this:
Can't load Android System. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you might need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data store in this device.

I did the factory data reset but it did not work.
Now this might seem relatively easy to fix by using adb right? Well it is the worst moment to have the usb port damaged so until I fix that I have this beautiful OnePlus Paperweight.
The last detail is I actually deleted a folder which contained the .xml config files of the OOS Cam I installed on the second try because I thought it might cause some issues with the last try. Those files were on /system/data/
The phone have the bootloader open because I use a custom ROM and this one is called "/e/" which is based on Lineage OS. I used the wireless ADB function since my usb port is damaged, it jsut works as a charge port.
Again my main motive to this post is to understand "what did I do wrong?". I don't get why Android thinks the data is corrupted. The files are the official ones and as far I know I didn't deleted any important files. I even want to try with a more modern version of the app since I use the 6.4.45. This is the one that came on my phone the moment I opened the box. I want to see if the quality of the pictures got better with a newer one.
If you read this massive dump of text...thank you!
