Mine as well, I can load or take a picture (picture even saves to my gallery) and then it crashes on the filter screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] promiseofcake:
After taking a picture my phone reboots. Stock ICS via the leak.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boostmx:
Yep. I get different reactions. Phone freezes, hangs, or reboots itself. All coming down to ****in' up the phone.

Hopefully one of the better XDA devs (better in comparison to the Instagram devs) fix it before the actual app updates
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] y2whisper:
Got a different response from instagram. They are aware and working on a bug fix.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boostmx:
Good to know. I guess if we pester them enough it'll be a "known" issue. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JaZart:
I'm encountering the same issue as well.

However, the first time I ran the app it worked flawlessly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] y2whisper:
Update in the play store haven't tested yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] edgex:
Still says Version 1.0.0 on play store here. just released today, I doubt they will have an update in just a few hours.

EDIT: says 1.0.1, is updated. testing now. Still broken here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ckpicker:
Yup. 1.0.1 is still broken for me. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boostmx:
Same issue here. Updated to 1.0.1, still screwy. Nice to know they tried though. :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rjohnstone:
Update is slow as hell and still crashes.

What did you expect from a bunch of guys who are used to XCode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:
I really was hoping the 1.0.1 update would fix things :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Gr8Danes:
Crashes on mine too. Really seems to screw up the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wali01x:
i ran a logcat while running instagram and yet nothing surprised me. only thing that threw me off is that it ran the core x2 which meant it signal for reboot. so it has something to do with app pushing an effect and some code being wrong somewhere to trigger that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] orlandoxpolice:
crashes for me

NexusMod ICS Beta3

Screen flashes to wallpaper, black screen, and then the instagram screen very quickly until i hold power down to reboot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 32dave:
mine updated at 4 am(EST) this morning
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] djoneal:
the same issue i thinkg is incompatible with ICS i have a brother with a Galaxy S2 running GB and instagram run smoothly but in my SKYROCKET sucks!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
Yeah... my wife's LTE G Note runs it perfectly, under GB... so I also assumed it would be ICS, howeber my friend's Galaxy Nexus runs it perfectly as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:
Any luck in actually getting to he app on 4.0.3? Mine turns white vibrates then black stays for a while then double vibrates and says incompatible :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Diablo2424:
Same issue here. See below for ROM. Just anither app ported to android by a bunch of iOS only devs. Typical. Oh well. Maybe some xda dev can get the source somehow and write it properly for android? 4.0.3 preferably :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:
I'm using the same from lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kagenui:
Works perfectly for me. Managed to take a picture, apply filter and upload. Running mhx's gingerbread rom. Maybe it's an ICS issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
I wonder what makes our Skyrocket so dang special?

Maybe a combination of

8 MB camera on ICS on Snapdragon processor?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ComputerWolf:
I know it has nothing to do with the camera, because it captures the pictures just fine. It's when it tries to apply filters that it hangs up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Gr8Danes:
It's telling us to forget the overrated app. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
Instagram,

Y U NO UPDATE TODAY!!??!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] y2whisper:
another update should be coming soon. At least that was the email i got from them today.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ckpicker:
Yeah, I got this in an email from their support team today:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:
Update just pushed out testing now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:
Nope still having it spazz out when I want to upload a pic from gallery :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JaZart:
Yep,

Dammit, what's the problem here?

I'm tired of using my i4 for Instagram...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rojov123:
was it working for you on your previous rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
Updated to 1.0.2, same problem.

I feel like Instagram is not taking this problem seriously. How can an app make a phone crash this badly? I've must have gone through 500 apps on an android. This is the first app that can make my phone crash to a point where I need to take out the battery or hold the power button for 10 seconds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] y2whisper:
but if gb users are now finding that its working for them. it ends up being something with our leaked rom. Note users are finding the same issue as well with their leak last I checked.

The fact that they have updated it twice in as many days shows there is some commitment there.

Whats funny is that I really just want to see what the hype is about for a bit and then probably not use it as much since pixlr-o-matic has more options (although would be nice if they categorized its filters a bit more since there are so much)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Freemantig:
Mine never said it was incompatible but it is. After I snap a pic it freezes trying to apply a filter and I have to pull battery because it won't even force close the app. I'm running super lite 4.2.

I emailed the yesterday and told them about this problem in detail and the replied but only said that the skyrocket was having trouble uploading and that's the fix they would be working on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ComputerWolf:
To be honest I'm surprised they've already updated it twice. Looks like they're trying to fix the bugs but since this seems like a semi-isolated bug on ICS leaks, they may not have any devices for proper debugging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kagenui:
I tried to update today aparently the skyrocket is no longer compatible.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pixelens:
Weird, it upgraded on my I727R running 4.0.3. Runs so damn slow it's unusable... and then crashes/freezes phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boostmx:
Mine upgraded as well, but it runs fine. It only dies once I hit the filter screen and completely crashes the phone. Are you talking about that part of the entire app? Everything else is honestly pretty snappy for me, faster than the iOS version I think anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kagenui:
Can somebody send the 1.02 apk? Since it doesn't want to update on mine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pixelens:
Yeah, loads fine, takes pic or loads pic from Gallery then takes forever for the photo to show up on the filter setting and then when you try to apply/change a filter it just freezes and I have to reboot. I even let it sit "frozen" for 5 minutes to confirm it was frozen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
Why did it take so long for Instagram to come out on android?

They couldn't find one dev that would work for minimum wage. When they finally found one, they couldn't find a single tester that would work as an intern for free, so they just decided to release it as 1.0.

Source: Occam's razor
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Frogacuda:
The problem is on our end. We're using beta software. It has trouble with certain OGL application that make it have a seizure. Basemark Taiji does the same thing, so do some HTML5 demos in Chrome. Hopefully this will be fixed when we get official software or AOSP.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] orlandoxpolice:
More like instacrash
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boostmx:
Confirmed. I was about to flash myself a new ICS rom (just cuz I'm bored :D ) and before doing so, I decided to try the GB rom first and see if it works fine on that. I can report that Instagram definitely works flawlessly on GB... though I dunno if it's enough to make me keep it. Let's hope enough of us reported ICS issues that they'll fix it for us.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Cubit33:
Yeah, this is exactly what is going on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:
I don't think instagram is more important than android 4.0...

Ics>instagram

Just hope it'll work soon ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
You say that. But what's the likelihood that when we get official ICS, and it crashes like this? I ask that question thinking about what other app I've found that makes my phone crash like this. Zero.

How many other camera/image processing app have I tried? About 20. None of them have any problems like these. Instagram isn't doing anything special with the camera or filters.

Where's the problem? It is most likely the app. Show me another program that crashes like this. But if we insist that the problem is our beta ICS, then they will never even give a consideration to actually try to fix the problem. Ignorance is bliss to any developer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Frogacuda:
Actually, I've observed several that crash in the exact same manner, with screen flickering, and background sounds but the screen unable to update.

The fact is that Instagram is the highest profile of these apps. It's the one you've actually tried. That's why this might be a good thing, because if there wasn't a high-profile app that suffered from this bug, it would never get fixed. Now it might.

I already did. Basemark Taiji. Try it. Same exact thing. Some of the MS IE HTML5 demos too. There were others I found too but I can't remember right now.

It's Sammy's bug, not Instagram's. That's the price of running incomplete software on your phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
It's odd... when using it from the camera, I have "instacrash", but when importing from gallery, it tries a little bit... ocassionally shows the picture, even managed to see a couple of previews with the filters... flickering, of course. Then a big slowdown, followed by freezing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
I did Basemark Taiji. Although the program crashed, it did not take down the phone like Instagram did where I had to hold the power button down to do a hard reset. You are using the phrase "same exact thing" very loosely because you're grasping at straws. You haven't shown a single app that crashes the phone as badly as the Instagram app. Why? Because the bug is in Instagram. Nuff said. If anything, Instagram should look at Basemark Taiji as a way a phone should behave when something crashes and at least improve on that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] heirfister:
v1.01 worked for my galaxy y but v1.02 is now incompatible.. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Frogacuda:
Really? Does for me. Also try going here in Chrome beta and playing with some of the demos. I forget which crashes it. Hamster Dance, maybe?

In any event, it doesn't crash in Gingerbread, and neither does Instagram. Do you really expect the team at Instagram to be testing their code on beta firmware for one phone that has an issue? Does that really sound reasonable to you?

I'm not saying there isn't a way for them to workaround the bug in our phone, but there's no reason for them to do it right now because it might well be fixed when the official release comes out and right now it's just buggy beta firmware that's the problem. Why would Instagram bother?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
Apparently, the issue comes with our ICS Leak (or similar) ROMs!!!

Dissappointed with Instagram, I gave Pudding Camera a second chance... works flawlessly, but if you notice, it doesn't give you previews of the image. Now, Pudding.to DOES show previews, and when tested, it gave the EXACT SAME issue Instagram did!

It did seem easy to blame Instagram devs at first... but apparently, the issue does not come on their side.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] boostmx:
anyone have any luck with the latest 1.0.3 update on ICS?

lets keep this bumped till we get it fixed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SolsticeZero:
Cause that will get it fixed....

Besides, Facebook is buying Instagram, which means it has no place on my phone. I was actually hyped for the app until I heard about this today.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cashyftw:
How is that downing the hype?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ilista:
I'm playing the wait-and-see game on that one. FB says they plan to leave instagram independent. We'll see if that happens. For the moment its still a large community with fun pics to share and I like that it's android friendly now. Hopefully ics friendly very soon :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] edgex:
IDK. It's not like they could make instagram worse for android. Only place to go is up from here. But then again I've never liked instagram to begin with, always the annoying hipsters who use it anyways.

I would classify those people as visionaries. Hipsters are trend setters in clothing, music, and style.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SolsticeZero:
I couldn't give less of a damn about hipsters or not, I just don't like the idea of Facebook basically storing every Instagram picture I take on a server indefinitely. Their lack of privacy is just mind boggling.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] orlandoxpolice:
Google+ instant upload is the same thing, and you can opt out. I'm assuming that instagram would do the same if they wanted to retain their userbase.

Remember, if it isn't free, you are the product.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SolsticeZero:

i second that, soon i hope!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] m4570d0n:
Most of the other parts of the app worked fine for me until I get to the photo editing part. I could take a picture or import one from the gallery. But as soon as it got to the photo editor part, all hell breaks loose. Once or twice I was able to back out to the home screen and kill the app. It didnt matter though. Everything was still glitching (like the status bar flickering and lots of other drawable areas flickering) and eventually it would lock up and force me to reboot. Will not try again until there's a fix.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jnicks510:
Working flawlessly? However the issue isn't isolated to specific ROM s. It's because we don't have a complete firmware. We probably won't get it to work for us until we get the official ota. I know my cousin has the official ota on his vivid and it works great for him.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
Just FYI

Instagram does not work with new ICS leak released today UCLD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] m4570d0n:
Umm, is that a typo? You're the only person I've seen saying this and I've seen many more people saying it does in fact work now with the UCLD2 leak.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rjohnstone:
Doesn't work for me either. Yes, it doesn't freeze after taking a pic anymore, but it still freezes when applying filters.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IEatKittys!:
It allows me to choose filters and everything. Expect when I upload it, the picture is completely black. :mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] irishpadres:
Freezes after applying a couple filters

It doesn't work for me either. I can apply a couple filters to a photo and then it locks up on me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NightHawkUndead:
I'm running the new sky ics from the new leak and instagram is running with no problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NightHawkUndead:
Screenshot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] irishpadres:
I've wiped several times and tried both the stock UCLD2 and new sky ics rom's and it still hangs. I can select one or two filters and then will start hang on me after that. I can exit out of app so at least it's not crashing anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Frogacuda:
Yeah, it doesn't have a flicker seizure right after taking a picture anymore, but it still seems very unstable when applying filters. Sometimes I can get through 20 of them and it's fine, and then sometimes I try two and it freezes. Seems pretty random.

Seems like luck of the draw each time you use it.

The good news is you don't have to power off though, so if it freezes up you can just wait a few seconds and then home out and close it. It seems like they did fix a major problem with it, but there's still work left to be done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Frogacuda:
Yeah, on further inspection it seems like they've corrected the issue that causes the display to flicker and not refresh correctly, which also affected a few other things and could only be fixed by rebooting.

They have not, however, fixed the issue that causes the actual freezing. Basemark Taiji still freezes as well, but can now be exited out of after freezing when it couldn't before. With instagram it seems more random, and you can sometimes actually use it ok, just luck of the draw. So that's an improvement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] djoneal:
well i can say i run instagram in the last leaked ics room and when i upload a picture... apear a blacksquare mmmm
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
Mine "half-freezes". It certainly works better than before... I even got to apply a single filter... but after a second, it froze.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
loaded SKY ICS UCLD2....maybe instagram is a little better, but if you keep poking at it, it still crashes your entire phone. I haven't made it free the phone, but it has rebooted it. People who say it works perfect haven't tried every filter and going back and fourth.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kenneth.Torres:

Bingo. Applying a handful of filters is not why most people use Instagram. Vignette, Little Photo, pixlr-o-matic and none of those other ones will give you the Instagram social base. Neither will others that attempt to do the same. We need Instagram (not another application) working on ICS for our Skyrockets, period.
