Request:

Could anyone kindly post the FactoryTest.apk (For S3 I9300 if that makes any difference) because I searched XDA and on Google and I still cant find it.

Somehow I don't have it on my phone and I need to update the cam firmware to match my phone firmware

Camera busted at the moment.

THANK YOU!

A tried 3 different firmwares for camera in "samsung galaxy s3" and here are my opinions ( i using note II camera firmwares because camera hardware is same + hacked camera application from noteII that works in "samsung galaxy s3" too )

GKFI03_NoteII ( works good, even add battery percentage in camera application in right upper corner before sd card icon !! )

GKFJ03_NoteII ( works good, not known or find proof it's better or no than GKFI03, but again, battery percentage is missing now, even if this is newer firmware )

GMFJ01_NoteII ( not work for me in "samsung galaxy s3". i not know why, because it is "G" firmware but camera is not broken, start working again when i downgrade to GKFI03 or GKFJ03 ... anyone here make GMFJ01 working on "samsung galaxy s3" and how? )

p.s.

some of these firmware are not listed here, but are listed @ 4pda.ru.. check it!

help. dialing in the stock dialer does not reveal anything? is there another way to show the information i need?
[Galaxy S III General] nadram:
When I dial the code I get the camera firmware window but it's empty and within a few seconds factory test crashes.

Camera isn't working. I really want to try this fix. Anything else I can do?
[Galaxy S III General] yuhenyo:
hi. according to OP, you have to "unpack properly" the download in order for the "Phone to CAM FW Write (Rear)" to not be greyed out. Is there a process on how to unpack properly? I tried in winrar but the option was still unclickable even when placing the .bin file in the root of the internal card
[Galaxy S III General] OhMrBigshot:
It should be an IPS file, if I recall correctly. Just unpacking it with a file explorer on the phone that works did the trick for me.

I flashed slimbean 4.2.2 Camera doesnt work

I flashed slimbean 4.2.2 Camera doesnt work. Everytime i press the camera it would reset my phone.Do these zip files work for 4.2.2? If not what drivers would you suggest?
[Galaxy S III General] Raven.ignite:
I'm also having issues with my camera. I have a stock GS3 i747m (unlocked) on 4.1.1

When I try to enter the test number (*#34971539#) in the dial pad, it also comes up empty for me then crashes saying "unfortunately, factory test has stopped", so I do not know which camera version I have.

When I try to use my camera app (even third party apps) it just crashes. I have tried restarting and factory reset through settings also.

I'm pretty sure flashing a firmware would help, but I am at a loss as to which to download/flash, and also how to flash it as I just got this phone (with broken cam) and have not messed around with anything yet.

Also, through a different test menu, I have found out the front camera still works but not through the camera app.

Any help would be greatly appreciated (:
[Galaxy S III General] ZeekRivera:
Well after a LONG time of messing around with my GS3 I was finally able to get the camera working on a 4.2.2 rom, cyanogenmod10.1 newest nightly to be exact. Ever since I got my GS3 I've wanted to put a custom rom on it. I've only had it for a week and I came from an iPhone 3G so you know, everything is much different. Rooting and such was pretty easy but whenever I installed a 4.2.2 rom (I tried cyanogen and liquid) the camera never worked even tho I tried most of the fixes I found on google.

Last night I got quite fed up and I was determined to make cyanogen and the camera work on my phone ;) I upgraded my camera driver from ZKFH07 to ZKFH10 and that didn't work either. Even tho the OP states

I saw that a couple people were having luck with the ZDFF03 firmware. I went and installed that and it was successful. Made sure the camera worked on a clean 4.1.1 install, then I put CM10.1 back on the phone, and to my luck the camera finally worked! Put all my apps and such back on the phone and so far everything is great. No more t-mobile bloat and I have a perfect working fast rom :highfive:

TL: DR

SGH-T999 Camera didn't work on 4.2.2 roms

Changed driver from ZKFH07 to ZDFF03

camera didn't brick and works great on CM10.1

Hopefully this will help some people out, and this is my first post on the forum so good luck :good:
[Galaxy S III General] amanwithaplan:
So after installing cm10.1 you put the camera apk in system folder and fix permissions and you were ready to go? I thought that if you fully wipe you phone the camera firmware reverts to its original. Except if you flashed cm10.1 then change firmware and then install camera apk.
[Galaxy S III General] ZeekRivera:
I was in a clean stock rom, rooted. Installed the ZDFF03 firmware, then put CM10.1 nightly on and everything is working fine so far.

Blurry pics

I didn't want to open a new thread, so I'm posting here:

I have a problem with the main camera on my I9305N, which is there since I got it. The picture is always blurry. Front facing camera works fine, and gives much better pictures then the main one.. I checked the fw versions, and mine are the same as in OP, so I followed the instructions and flashed to ZDFI02, and there are no changes. Does anyone have any idea what is the cause of this? :crying:

I was on CM 10.1 and now I changed to stock for checking Camera firmware/driver. At my S3 it is displayed:

camera hell

Tried all the advice on this thread and still the camera crashes on AOSP based roms. Stock based are fine. This is my third Samsung device and has to be the most frustrating experience of custom roms I have ever had in all this time. I love AOKP features. I don't want to go back to sluggish, laggy Touchwiz! Please! Somebody save me from i9300 camera hell!

Ok so being rational - I have updated the firmware as described in this thread. Had to flash a stock rom, update the camera firmware, then I went back to AOKP. It maybe seemed a tiny bit better in the beginning (placebo effect) and then the regular force closes started again.

Read a completely contradictory thread on XDA which said the firmware doesnt matter!! To the effect that the rom firmware takes precedence!?!

Problem seems to me like there could be variations of camera hardware in these phone. And as for why this problem isn't being addressed, it also seems to me - and shoot me down if you wish, but give me some firm evidence to the contrary - that there are now so many Android devices supported by AOKP (which is a base for many other roms) they declare a "milestone" based on the stability of their code on a nexus developer device... before it has been packaged for use on devices like the i9300. So the guarantee of stability is a bit disingenuous because they know it has yet to be ported to a ton of different hardwares. There is a distinct lack of development of AOSP roms specifically for the Galaxy SIII from the ground up, which is odd given it's popularity.

I guess it's back to stock for me :eek:
[Galaxy S III General] Choristav:
No idea but CM10.1's camera is pretty much fixed, I've never had any more issues with it.

10.2 on the other hand...

both are caused by lack of drivers, so don't blame the ROMs.

[Galaxy S III General] astralbee:
That's helpful, thanks.

And I don't blame the ROMs - I think AOKP especially is an amazing piece of work and I'm really disappointed that what worked beautifully on my SII isn't stable enough on my SIII as a daily driver.

[Galaxy S III General] danieldp1990:
but is that official? how she got it?
[Galaxy S III General] sspencer10:
Its official, I dont even think you can update it on the i535. The ZHFJ02 firmware can be found here https://github.com/TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_samsung/tree/cm-10.2/d2-common/proprietary/cameradata
[Galaxy S III General] sspencer10:
I figured it out! Ok, I restored my stock rom and in the /data folder I found SlimISP_JH.bin and I copied it to my extsd. Then went back to my AOSP rom and dropped the SlimISP_JH.bin into /data and /system/cameradata, changed permissions on both to 777 and my camera worked, no reboot even! Now to get it added to here: https://github.com/TheMuppets/propr...tree/cm-10.2/d2-common/proprietary/cameradata

[Galaxy S III General] GoodWiesKapot:
I had the same problem, reguarding the "can't connect to camera" error.

Phone: I9300

Phone CAM firm: Cam FW Ver: JHFJ02/Phone FW Ver: JHFJ02

Phone stock ROM: 4.1.2 (Build ELLA-EMD3)

Phone custom ROM(ASOP): cm-10.2-20130918-NIGHTLY-i9300

This is what it did to resolv it:

In my case the SlimISP_JH.bin was located at the /data/cfw folder. (searched on SlimISP With ES File Explorer)

Copy that file to external SD. Revert to AOSP ROM (Restore of flash)

And copy the SlimISP_JH.bin to the following folders on the AOSP ROM: "/data/cfw" "/data" "/system/cameradata" and make sure you chmod 777 the SlimISP_JH.bin

This works for me...

Hope this is helpfull.
[Galaxy S III General] xG-Tank:
what is ch mod 777?
[Galaxy S III General] GoodWiesKapot:
chmod is a linux command to set appropriate permissions to files, so you can execute them.

In File Explorer tap and hold the SlimISP_JH.bin file. Goto More --> Properties en tap on Change next to permissions. Enable all the upper 9 boxes.

:D
[Galaxy S III General] xG-Tank:
yeah, i've done that i still can't connect to only my front camera. I think it is a hardware problem to be completely honest.
[Galaxy S III General] sspencer10:
Wow you're the only other person ive seen with SlimISP_JH

I submitted a pull request to add the file on git. Carbon rom merged it. And if ya want a flashable zip to place the file in system/cameradata here ya go:

Simple Instructions

I can't get USSD codes working on Custom ROM, so I can't check the versions.

So is it correct that I should install a Stock ROM from SAMSUNG first?

And will that Unroot the phone? If not, should I unroot the phone?

I assume once I've done that I can use the USSD code as specified in the OP.

Can someone please confirm that this is correct?

Or would it be simpler to flash a 4.1.1 Stock ROM and then do a Samsung Update? Will that update the camera firmware?

Thanks for you help folks.

ZDFI02

After flashing you will have both matching:

Cam fw ver: GDFI02

Phone fw ver: GDFI02

I just did this and it works perfectly.

I know you asked a long time ago, but doesn't look like anyone answered.
[Galaxy S III General] GrayJack:
I don't know actually. I have another vendor and I am on 4.1.2.

When you will be on last leaked you have to check Phone FW Ver once again. It is a dump - and I don't know what will be in your situation with different vendors. If you will see something like "GD...." - good, just update the driver as it was mentioned before. But if it will show "ZDFI02" - I don't know what to do because in this cased the driver in kernel doesn't corresponds to your vendor.
[Galaxy S III General] PIRATA!:
That is exactly what I was thinking!!!

For example, if I'd be in that situation, do you think that flashing a GD differ offer ZD could break something??

I could always revert back to the ZD differ it came with.....no?
[Galaxy S III General] GrayJack:
It's a good question. I don't know, but there was a mention someone tried this here in forum. Try to search these posts.
[Galaxy S III General] Mopral:
If you flash ZD driver on a GD camera, there could be some issues (but not sure)

As you said you are on DLJ4:

-your camera has GDFD06

-your rom has GDFF03

If I were you; I'll make the update thing to make them match

Then, when you will be on 4.1.2 leak, you will only have to download GDFI02 driver from this thread and update it again

Or you can update to GDFI02 now even if you are not on 4.1.2 leak (made it myself and all seems to work good)
[Galaxy S III General] PIRATA!:
Ok read this:

I'd like to change CSC on 4.1.2 leak (that means that I will wipe)

We know that 4.1.2 leak must go onto another stock rom.

I was so thinking to flash DLJ5 before 4.1.2 leak as a base for it.

What will I have with DLJ5? GD or ZD???
[Galaxy S III General] Idan73:
No matter what you do your phone will always be gdf, unless you physically put zdf module.

So please don't even think or mention zdf in relation to your phone.

Any gdf is compatible with your and my phone... But flashing back and forth willy nilly is asking for trouble...

Testing JKay alpha on GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III General] Mopral:
I assume that you never update your camera driver before so GDFD06 is the firmware that was loaded in your phone in the factory

That mean that you will always have to use GD drivers

I also think that a rom always include both drivers but *#34971539# only show the one for your phone (I may be wrong on this one...)

-GDFD06 is the driver loaded in your camera module

-GDFF03 is the last official driver update

-GDFI02 is the update driver from 4.1.2 leak

When samsung make an update for this driver, it is included in the rom BUT it is not an auto-update

Now you are on DLJ4:

-camera module has GDFD06

-rom has GDFF03

If you flash DLJ5 (no new camera driver in this one as far as I know):

-camera module will still have GDFD06

-rom will still have GDFF03

If you flash 4.1.2 leak (this one has a camera driver update)

-your camera module will still have GDFD06

-your rom will have GDFI02

As long as you do not update yourself, your camera module will stay on GDFD06

Simple way for you:

-flash your phone to 4.1.2 leak

-dial *#34971539# and check if phone firmware show GDFI02

-if it show GDFI02 then make the update

-if it show ZDFI02 then grab the GDFI02 firmware in the OP and follow instruction from OP
