[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] abendroidx:
Big thanks to you supermaster. Now if only we can get hands free profile working I will be set again thanks to all of your effort well done guys
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
Is it missing or something? Because that's what the camera service us looking for to start the camera holder
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
I think the HAL module is somewhere in the kernel. Also the galaxy tab appears to have the most similar camera
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
You should ask Entropy if he can modify the kernel to include the Nexus S drivers. I'll beta
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
try to get camera's libs from Galaxy S i9000 ICS or other devices with the same exynos.

The problem is most likely in libcamera.so and similiar cam's libs.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Yeah I've tried it and it still doesn't work for some reason. I tried the GB camera drivers and it still didn't even boot. I'm going to try and use some files from the Nexus S as it is closer to the player 5 than the SGS
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
GB's libs dont work at 100%, i have tried sereval times, Nexus S and Galaxy S have the same procesor like SGP5, but SGP5 has also similar chips to galaxy note/SGSII.

The first what we have to get is... full specyfication of SGP5, we can send a mail to samsung, or seartch somewhere, if we will get it, we will be able to work effective.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
I should ask Samsung to help me with my touchwiz rom XD. Then we can have a fully working official ICS rom (If only). I mean their only reason for not giving the i9000 ICS was that touchwiz didn't fit on it...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
Well, for what it's worth, I speak Korean; and will see if I can find some detailed specs on the SGP 5.0 somewhere. I'll try digging around for them some time after work, but don't hold your breath.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Thanks. I don't think its specs we're missing though. We know what CPU, GPU and board we have. What would be really useful is some kernel drivers that work on ics
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
Gotcha. I'll still give it a look and see what I can find about that sort of information (kernel, drivers, etc...).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
information about camera's drivers(chip) (there are two cameras) are useful too, coz we might just get newer version of camera's driver(software).

anyway, i think we dont need change anything in our kernel, just look here: https://github.com/cgjones/android-...8943eeedd05448a7a56f60403a6f64/include/camera

HAL module file is in android OS source, so we might just need right libraries.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Ratchewer:
the modified version of JackpotClavin's rom already have bluetooth?where?anylink?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Its your ROM...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Ratchewer:
if we look into how cm7 was done i think it might help
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
When the camera attempts to open, the Camera HAL module doesn't load. I've found out the HAL module is located in /system/lib/hw/camera.'board'.so, so we need to look for camera.s5pc110.so. I've tried the file from the Galaxy Tab and there is no change i.e. the HAL module still fails to load. I've spoken to gmillz about building camera.s5pc110.so from source and we know which instruction is needed, so we need to wait and see if it works

EDIT:

I no longer get the 'can't connect to camera error' as gmillz has built the required files. However, the device now reboots when opening the camera :/. This also happens when using third party camera apps
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
Send me the files you guys used and I will logcat and see if I can help :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
http://goo.im/devs/gmillz/venturi_usa/files

Only libs3cjpeg.so goes in system/lib. The others go in system/lib/hw
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gmillz:
Here's a zip with the attempted camera fix for anybody that wants to try and help. cm-9-20120824-UNOFFICIAL-venturi_usa.zip

Camera causes a hot reboot. And this doesn't include the bluettoth fix
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
From what I see, Camera finds the HAL drivers, looks for and fails to load a bitmap(?) and then doesn't find it, causing the camera to time out and then tries to restart and then times out again. I dont know what causes the reboot though. I'm guess you guys already knew all this though
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Yeah. There's also a cool line about the debugger committing suicide to free the zombie XD. I found some hal files in the source code which I edited in my experimental version of the device tree
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
If you guys need any advice or help with the camera I can ask a polish dev that now works for samsung :) he has made a huge work with my phone which is samsung spica and he is fixing the camera right now (on 2.3 but his knowledge is huge)

send from my samsung galaxy wifi 5.0
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] aznflawless:
Oh my god we are almost there! OMG!!!! good work guys!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
The more heads the better. I'd bring him over now, but the final say is for the devs working on this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mrjaredbeta:
After all of this time, we almost got the camera working. Thanks everyone, can't wait for you to solve it out!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Ratchewer:
Well bring the polish dude on
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Karim.younus:
This is a kernel patch right? And by the way you're so clever to get the Bluetooth and camera so close to working.

Will the camera when fixed work on the front and back? Just a thought.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] baladev:
Not to be annoying, but.. while you guys at it, maybe you could look into implementing the bluetooth handsfree profile?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
You can find here all devices that have same board like SGS 5 pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a10010&c=samsung-intrinsity_s5pc110
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
I wouldn't expect that he will start developing on sgp ;p but I can ask him about whatever you want
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tnsrua2000:
lol!!!!!!!!!

I will port New MIUI Thanks!!!!!

But YP-G70 KOR's camera is 5.0 mega.........
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
I have seen the solution, can you post a logcat or send on PM ?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
try to push seccamera.jar to /system/framework, and add them permissions "chmod 755(via root explorer: user: (r)ead,(w)rite,e(x)ecution, group: (r)(x), other: (r)(x))", if work, its ok, if not, you can try replace also camera.apk[push it to /system/app] and secmediarecorder.jar.

dont forget add permission them too.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
Will try
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Karim.younus:
If the camera isn't showing up in the app drawer then look in the system/apps for the camera apk using root browser app and click on it to see if its installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
have you tried reboot after push of camera.apk ?

anyway there is only one error already, after push of seccamera.jar, mhm can you try a another camera app, like free LG camera?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
i tru to reboot after push and try camera fv but and it have reboot.I set permisions to both files.But you should wait for someone more expirience..i am not developer..just wanted to try
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] omaroe666:
when do you think you will have working camera ??? if you want a tester i want to test ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
1.04.2013.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] omaroe666:
you actually joking right ??
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gmillz:
Did you push them individually? Or at the same time.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
Pushed seccamera, reboot, pushed camera apk, reboot, pushed the last file and reboot again.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
Will these fixes fix both cameras when completed? Which camera is closest to being finished? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gmillz:
Did you try the camera in between each?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
What a dirty, sly way to ask for an ETA. You could've just said, "Let me know when you get to the beta-testing phase. I'll volunteer."

:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
I do believe you are new here. Please don't flame people on this forum. We (The Player community) don't really flame anyone. Gmillz, I did try Camera in between although when I pushed Camera.apk, it didn't show in the app drawer so I tried using Instagram with no lunch.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
Indeed, I may be new, but I don't go around asking for ETAs. I follow XDA rules. I wasn't overtly trying to be rude, but it seems that at least once in every thread there is a question regarding an ETA...just saying...

That said, I will definitely keep what you said in mind. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
Thank you. And yes there are those people that ask for ETAs over and over and well don't read first. We just gotta treat them with patience. Over simple text like this, someone could see this as rude while you were not trying to. But still, thanks and whatnot.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] omaroe666:
im sorry, ill want to volunteer im not english so i could find the right words at 1 am in the morning and i wasn't asking for a eta sorry if i come across like that.

im very excited that the camera is allmost working so excuse me for interrupting of the tread.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] noisyfox:
Well, I've tested your bluetooth patch and i find out that the only file in you patch that useful for bluetooth is BCM4329B1_002.002.023.0589.0649.hcd

E/brcm_patchram_plus( 884): file /system/bin/BCM4329B1_002.002.023.0589.0649.hcd could not be opened, error 2

That's the only one error while opening bluetooth.

So you can remove other files from your patch.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
first of mentioned bug is a rotation problem i guess

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/Surface.html

the second of mentioned bug is a addresation to RAM problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Yeah I know. The other files are to add a few WiFi tweaks and other stuff. The patch is not too large so I'll remove them in the next version. I'm on holiday now so I'll only be able to change anything when I get back next week.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] heet1:
i have a question umm cm9 has a bug where it switches the internal sd card with external... so how is this bug going to affect where the pictures are saved to?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
it'd probably save your pics to your external by default, unless you set it back manually to the internal.

it reverses it.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] heet1:
ahh thank you sir :D
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] noisyfox:
Have a good holiday~

I made a decision some times before that I'll start making MIUI v4 as soon as the bluetooth and camera is fixed, so I just can't wait to have the camera patch! :laugh: Nice work!

PS: I've been working on MIUI v4 already.:D
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] EcHoFiiVe:
Thank you, glad to see your back!

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
Yea, camera has been fixed in half way by us all, and bluetooth has been fixed by Ratchewer, 1h after Ratchewer's reply of "How to repair bluetooth", supermaster has posted it on forum.

Thx to all other, not just to supermaster.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Karim.younus:
Is it on AOKP yet? Just wondering
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
I agree. Many contributed to the success of these fixes, but give credit where it's due. Many contributed "ideas" to the fix, but Supermaster (and Gmillz I do believe) is (are) the one(s) that put it all together.

That's like somebody cooking up some awesome food and saying, "Oh! Well, I brought the plates so I made this, too!"

Thanks to Supermaster (and Gmillz?), who put all the elements together. And a special, little thanks to those who added little details along the way

---------- Post added at 09:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 PM ----------

To answer your question, I don't believe it has been implemented in AOKP, yet. I say this knowledgeably, because I and Supermaster tried this on AOKP-based ICS Crumble and it had no effect.

Supermaster is away on vacation now, and I think development on his part is on TEMPORARY hiatus. But, last I remember, he had plans to try to fix Bluetooth on AOKP.

You could always try, in my humble opinion, switching over to Paranoid Android which is very smooth and customizable. And, as it is AOSP source, the Bluetooth patch will work on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Yeah it wasn't just me. I'm not claiming all the credit in any way. All I did was put the required files into a flashable zip. I didn't see the how to repair Bluetooth thing. I've been working on this since the first Bluetooth enabled ROM came out and I managed to get it working recently on my RemICS-UX ROM so I thought I would make a patch for other ICS ROMs.

Anyway I'm not claiming all the credit and the article should have mentioned the other devs involved. We can count this as all the galaxy player 5 devs getting on the portal and not just me as this was the result of many people working on this.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Neodymium:
Hey supermaster, can I co-work with you on camera fix? I have a personal request from tnsrua2000, so I want to work with you.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] YoBob:
How's the camera going along?

Sent using xda app-developers app
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Karim.younus:
I would try phandroid but I prefer the stock android over the galaxy s3 one.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
No need to ask just jump right in! We should try to get as many devs as possible working on this. Hopefully the portal articles will lead to more interest in the galaxy player range from devs meaning we can accomplish more.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Neodymium:
I first gatherd some information.

G1, G70 - Samsung 3.2MP Camera (Can't find any device sharing)

GB70 - Samsung 5MP Camera (Same with Nexus S Cool!)

GB1 - Sony ISX005 (Sony 3.2MP, Same with Optimus One, U+ Galaxy Tab)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Neodymium:
Hey. Is it true that ICS kernel was just ramdisk-changed stock kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] dstarfire:
Work in Progress beats Hope in progress

I'm so glad to hear there's some progress being made on this, especially that it's being released in an amateur-friendly package.

And if it takes you another 6 months (or whatever) to get it working, that's okay. I've lived without it for over a year now, I can wait a few more months, especially since you're not getting paid for this.

I was gonna send you five bucks so you could go out for lunch, but your profile said I should donate to goo.im as a thanks, so I gave them $10, instead. (That's a sneaky trick, getting people to double their donations like that. :P)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
The GB1 camera is the same as G1 camera (I think, they don't have much difference except for the DMB)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Neodymium:
Oh, I didn't check G1 so I was wrong. Zac, I'm now working independently. I'll get repo and build based on aries-common. But before, I think I feel a responsibility to fix camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Why do you decide to work independently? We can get ICS to work on 3 YP-G1's.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
I dont now why you all dont post here what you try..this is forum..someone else could maybe see what is wrong.This way that you work in silence you will hit the wall and want have idea whats next and give up..that are just my tooth's ..i saw other threads for camera i they post everything they try and had milion posts but at the end they fix it together.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
I'm hoping we can make a lot of progress in the next few weeks with the camera problem. I'm back from my holiday now, but I'm going to be really busy for the next few weeks but I'll try to do as much work on this as possible.

Regarding the donation, I don't have a paypal donate account so I thought maybe people who want to donate to me should donate to a better cause (I'd probably waste the money XD) and goo.im really needs as much help as they can get, so thanks for the donation! It would be great if goo.im could get to a stage where it never went down again :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] SirRhor:
I tried RemixICS UX 1.3.3 on my US GPlayer 5.0 and Bluetooth does indeed pair with my Jabra Clipper, but sound doesn't come through it but the external speakers.

It's a common issue?

Thank you.

From my GNote. That's all.

Yeah it seems that music streaming to a Bluetooth headset doesn't work atm. I'll see what I can do about it

im not rushing or anything i just wanna know so i will decide to flash ics rom or not.if the project gonna be end long time from now i will stay with the GB
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Tbh I have no idea when it will be fixed. All I can say is the camera will be fixed once some devs get around to fixing it.

ok so i noticed something, im using a samsung hs 3000 bluetooth stereo headset and mic. i tried this on the galaxy player 5 with the patch and i cant listen to tunein radio and poweramp. ill have to keep testing this and messing with the settings to see if its just me or the device, ill keep you posted to as if i fix it or not if you need me to do anything else let me know ill be more than happy to do so. also if you want me to test this with any other roms you have let me know ill be more than happy to help...once again supermaster thanks for your work...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
I was looking at the Korean web page for the GP 5.8. It listed the camera as a 3.0MP camera, but it does not have a flash, and no mention of auto-focus. As for the YP-G70, well that page is in English, and as you probably know, they list that camera as a 3.0MP camera. However, I'm not sure if it makes a difference that the YP-G70 has a flash, or not. And, as you know, the G70 has auto-focus.

The Korean model, YP-GB70, has a 5.0MP camera, which has the same flash and auto-focus features. I am assuming the same for the international model, but correct me if I'm wrong; because both have physical home buttons.

On the other hand, and sorry if I am confusing anybody here, but I was looking at a webpage at the address: [ http://www.pdadb.net ], and on this webpage, they list the YP-G70 (5.0) and the YP-GP1 (5.8) as having 3.1MP cameras.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Karim.younus:
I thought this was the case. And the flash I'm pretty sure is just an extra.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
I'm guessing you missed the WIP part; which stands for work in progress

The good news is we have some outstanding devs in the Galaxy Player forum who have made some serious progress.

The bad news is there's still no patch for the camera. So, don't hold your breath, and just a friendly reminder to all that there are no ETAs on XDA.

We've been waiting a while for the fix, but it could still be a while longer yet. :fingers-crossed:
