[Galaxy S II General] Paschinski:
I asked Samsung when they'll be doing something about the stuttering HD video recording on the SGS2 and they answered today.

Support didn't even bother to read my mail because their answer was about about the stuttering some people experienced when playing videos on youtube etc.

Their solution for this was: Return to factory settings, if that doesn't help: send the phone in.

So I wrote back that they should read the mail before answering because I clearly told them about a different problem (even with links to various threads on different boards dealing with this issue).

A few hours later I recieved the same Email as before, but now "stuttering video playback" was changed into "stuttering video HD recording".

:mad: Thanks Samsung!
[Galaxy S II General] DrSlump76:
Well if i bring my phone to a repair center asking to them to repair the camera because of low framerate, it's obivious that they will give me back the phone with the problem solved.

Hehehehe they simply don't care: sgs2 is a best seller, anyway. They don't need to give particular attention to a bunch of customers with problems.

It should not be that way, but.. it is...

Phone FW ver-TBEC28

[Galaxy S II General] Orka82:
Sounds like hardware. Get your phone repaired.
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
But camera work good I take some picture and so nice,no hardware:p:p:p

This just sometimes happend.
[Galaxy S II General] Orka82:
It sounds like the connection between the camera and the main board is bad.

Hardware related for sure.
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
And you suggest fix hardware?Now work,maybe becouse I try update fw and flash fw with odin?
[Galaxy S II General] Orka82:
If you have to shake your phone sometimes then yes, hardware. ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
Ok thanx I dont want leasson that,no hardware,now work everytime I try no shake no nothing,I see what happend:p
[Galaxy S II General] DrSlump76:
Hi my phone does a "tick" sound when i shake it and camera is offline. Do you hear it too?
[Galaxy S II General] zgrzyt:
I have problem.

I flashed OMEF01 ==> SIEG03.

In the centre of camera apears black screen but the menu looks normal.

I tried to downgrade. The cam firmware from the code *#34971539# works. Every options apears in one minute. But I cant do anything. How to restore it?

My android KI4 2.3.4 with root. I have FactoryReset for sure.
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
Same on me,I dont know what is that,can anybody help?
[Galaxy S II General] zgrzyt:
The solution is factory reset.
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
I do everything but not work maybe fw problem?
[Galaxy S II General] skiflyer:
i have had the same. place the omef01's rs_m5ls.bin on your sd card. then start factory reset via the code and continue pressing on the screen, where after a time the "phone to cam fw write" field appears. so you should be possible to downgrade the FW.
[Galaxy S II General] zgrzyt:
Did you found some another firmware which works on OMEF01 and is better?
[Galaxy S II General] _Sofos_:
Someone mentioned it in another forum and imo you should give it a go..

lgCameraPro (try the beta first b4 buying it).

You won't have the autofocus issue while recording at 1080p and you might see improvements in general in video recording.
[Galaxy S II General] mariolcela:
If your camera does not work because you have updated wrong camera firmware,try to flash those firmwares one by one.

>>>and don't forget the thank button...:D:D:D
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
How we can flash this fw for camera?
[Galaxy S II General] mariolcela:
extract rs_m5ls.bin to sd card.open dialer and type *#34971539#.and press [phone to CAM FW write].update the firmwares one by one until your camera will work perfectly.
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
Ok thanx did you think this update camera fw fix my problem,when I turn on camera screen black but menu work of camera I have and can used and look picture but cant take picture too slow and fc.
[Galaxy S II General] mariolcela:
I had the same problem tajkun.that will come because SGS 2 have different camera models and different camera firmwares.
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
You dont think this problem is hardware,becouse sometimes I can turn camera and screen not black becouse shake phone??
[Galaxy S II General] mariolcela:
have you flashed any camera firmware another time?
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
No I dont becouse my phone on service:mad:

[Galaxy S II General] plunderclat:
Hey, I've been searching for the most relevant topic with regards to my issue. And this cropped up. It's about a couple of issues since 2.3.4 and one in particular that I've had from the day the phone was released. My biggest issue is for e.g. I'm on a mobile web page, I'm typing away and as I do my first sentence is long gone, as far as you can see in the text box.... After I've Typed so much, I notice an error, naturally i'll press the text I want to correct and expect to be able to edit it that way, but instead v of the cursor being where I pressed, it just shoots off to a completely random area of the text field, and I've that happens it refuses to let me type anywhere I press, the curser just pisses, and it becomes a game of "find the god damn curser". Ths ain't good when you've just typed half the dictionary to help someone or w/e. The other issues are since 2.3.4. ****ty camera zooming, swype force closes and some text field are'nt recognised as such within the browser, instead it recognises then as web images, so naturally when you press on them, you get no keyboard. It's driving me insane. Any help/advice would be gratefully received. Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] Stepon:
Please

Please, upload OMEF01, thx :)

After this update I actually got the pink spot. Didn't have it before.

Thx Samsung! :mad:
[Galaxy S II General] xiux:
i'm pretty sure i dont have the pink spot before cause i snapped many photos without noticing anything strange.

after update, the 1st thing i see when the camera app fires up is the pink spot in the middle... wtf :(

is there a way to reverse back to old firmware?
[Galaxy S II General] djase:
no it's irreversible !;)
[Galaxy S II General] pedrocarlosdos:
this is the wrong update

this is the wrong update: Cam FW Ver OCEE09 & Phone FW Ver TBEC28 because it has the pink color on the screen (lens)

those who have this update:Cam FW Ver: OCED11 & Phone FW Ver: TBEC28

already have the good update this is the newest update
[Galaxy S II General] pedrocarlosdos:
thats because is the old one you downloaded just try to install it again and then it will say that your Cam firmware is up to date can't install then keep pressing until it prompts you to an-install
[Galaxy S II General] pedrocarlosdos:
don't update it it's update if you have:

can someone dumb old Cam FW Ver: TBEC28 firmware? :( I updated camera firmware on Preproduction galaxy s2 (1gh processor flashed rooted to baseband I9100XXKDH, Kernel 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 root@DELL103 #2) and now flash has no use. When I shoot with flash on, it lights but when camera shoots the photo is as dark as without using flash at all :( heeelp. I think I can revert back camera firmware? using builtin service *#*#34971539#*#*?

i don't think so. You can dump firmware using *#*#34971539#*#* and reflash from SD card the one you dumped earlier or something like that.

menu looks like this

Well, if someone who still has TBEC28 cam firmware could manage to dump the fw and share it with us, I'll help his epeen to increase!
[Galaxy S II General] sgstwo:
Download the APK from the first post and install it on your phone again. Start the installer and re-install your firmware. Make sure you have enough battery power left or plug it in.

Hi, I have your same phone firmware: OCED11.

My camera firmware was also OCED11 before the update.

Then I had the bad idea to update, caught by enthusiasm, and now got camera firmware OCEE09. Well, now I can enjoy the nice pink spot in my phone camera! (before the update, it was much less pronouced and of green-blue colour)

I don't know how to revert back to the previous firmware, provided that it is even possible... :(
[Galaxy S II General] maedox:
If it ain't broke don't fix it. ;)

[Galaxy S II General] ixon2001:
Well i got fed up waiting for Samsung to release a firmware that sorted out the stutter in both 720p & 1080p in low light on my SC camera firmware mobile.

So sold my Galaxy S2 & risked buying another one.

The risk payed off. :)

My new Galaxy S2 comes with

ONEF01

TBEC28

The camera clicks like other have reported, but i have both faster focus & no more stutter in either 720p/1080p anymore.

So now im very happy.

My orginal Galaxy S2 was bought when it was just released, i think newer Galaxy S2's don't use the SC camera modules anymore proberly due to this problem, as every Galaxy S2 i checked that people i know have bought none have had any of the S camera module.

I think Samsung know about this problem, but are reluctant to fix the problem, so sneakly use the O series camera modules in newer Galaxy S2's.

Could be wrong but who knows.

Could´nt update through "phone to cam"-option, as it kept saying the firmware was the newest version. Could update from TBEC28 to TBEE08 with the .apk on the first page though... thanks!! ;)

Doesn't matter indeed, 'cause all SCE... camera module sucks. Tested and verified. http://db.tt/yGhGVoir

I have second SGS2 with camera module from Sony and must admit it rocks. No video stuttering at all. I have replaced 4 phones with SCE... modules, 'cause all stutter.
[Galaxy S II General] DrSlump76:
Isn't it strange that the fw sieg03 works well with the sce modules??
[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
It's strange, but as long as flash doesn't work, it's useless. In addition, i've checked video from OME... and SCE..., and OME...module has almost constant frame rate: min 28 max 30, however SCE... has quite shocking range: min 15 max 40.

[Galaxy S II General] Burgscheinkerkdeiktraast:

Anyway I sent mail to Samsung where I had asked about AutoFocus problem which is well known in the community. I requested direct mail to engineer group (or cell) of 9100.

They replied:

For the god sake!

SCE sucks? So if I return phone on warranty service will I get Sony optics? Can I demand Sony optics phone?
[Galaxy S II General] DrSlump76:
Setting the sensor gain to -2 the min framerate will be 25fps

i don't think so.. they will replace the defective unit with another one they have in stock.
[Galaxy S II General] Burgscheinkerkdeiktraast:
The question is if it qualifies as issue... you know they can only replace software and say "we fixed it!" like it is used to be in Nokia....
[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
What's point to decrease exposure. That is nonsense. Customer should not bother with such staff. I just wanna enjoy shooting video like on OME... camera module.
[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
[/QUOTE] For the god sake!

You can demand, but before claim, please contact repair center, directly who deals with sammy repair. I did in this way, but repair master informed me, that they just place an order for specific part to be replace, so there is a question is repair center in the power to demand specific part to be delivered as being requested by customer. I think this process varies from region to region. I am gonna visit tomorrow repair center and will sort out this mystery.
[Galaxy S II General] Fureeze:
After I updated from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5, the still picture quality has decreased. More noise, seems less focused, not as sharp colors, bad low-light performance etc. I'm on camera firmware SCEE07. What can I do to fix this? I was very satisfied with the camera before the update.
