You must be on I535VRBMB1 Firmware For Camera To Work! AOSP doesn't support newer firmware.

Most Recent 'Update' post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=43163938#post43163938

This ROM is community supported, meaning support relies on fellow XDA Members. I have completed this project and no longer give support.

Updating / Coming from MIUIv4:

1. Place ROM zip file on your SD card

2. Boot into recovery

3. Create a backup

4. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache* [Wipe Data is optional, but provides best experience]

5. Install zip from SD card

New to MIUI / Coming from TouchWiz, AOSP, or other ROM:

1. Place ROM zip file on your SD card

2. Boot into recovery

3. Create a backup

4. Factory reset device (Wipe Data), Wipe Cache and Wipe System and Dalvik Cache

5. Install zip from SD card

Devices with Newer Firmware:

1. Flash I535VRBMB1 Firmware (Allows Camera to work on newer flashed devices).

- No Major Issues Exist
