possible source for camera fixe(s)

hey deedwar,

if you read around the net the FC after taking a picture seems to be a common cm10.2 problem.

i found a ROM-thread which claims to have a stable camera according to the changelogs: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42485079&postcount=2

may be you can take a look at the sources and see what exactly has been changed?

congrats to your nexus 5! but please don't leave us, we'd be lost! :good:

edit:

i'm taking the risk in tellung you stuff you already know, again ;)

i looked at the logcat from taking a picture, and it looks very much like the mediaserver is the problem.

Won't be going anywhere I will use this phone when I go to work and my nexus at home. Thanks for taking the time with log cat I have been busy with work but on the weekend hoping to release a version of boot manager that works for the acro s. Then fix 4.3.1
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] steveeJ:
temporary solution for camera

i downloaded the latest ROM from the thread i linked before: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2320657

i started to replace files which where in the backtrace of the mediaserver crash with files from that ROM. i was lucky and figured out that replacing /system/lib/libcameraservice.so helps with the force-close after taking a picture.

what i tested and my results:

taking picture to internal storage - works

swiping right and left to and from latest pictures - works

taking videos - works

playing videos - plays sound really fast then freezes phone

for all who want to try this temporary solution:

have adb installed and working

download the attached zip file to your computer and unzip it.

open a terminal/cmdline and change the working directory to the unzipped file

reboot your phone to recovery, and connect it via usb

use following commands in the terminal/cmdline:

adb shell mount /system
adb push libcameraservice.so /system/lib/
adb shell chmod 644 /system/lib/libcameraservice.so

reboot your phone to system via recovery
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] irieKEN:
Good find, steveeJ! I can confirm that this works as advertised.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chrissoriano:
you are the only developer here who are always intack to the user...yeah we losta lot if you leave us ..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Like i said im not going anywhere. I got the nexus 5 because i dont want to have to worry about developing another phone so i will just use what other people have made and with my Xperia Acro S i will develop something similar to what i download for the nexus.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Thanks for the help, will take a look tomorrow how i can make a fix with the source maybe from the github from the ROM you pointed me to at worst i can just include the file in the next release.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PurlingNayuki:
I got 4.3 now and it's not a nice one but a better one! But if it's possible to cut out the BeanStalk brand showed when "Optimizing apps", "starting apps" and Powering Off"?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I have removed most of it in the version in running. Replaced some with the PAC ROM images. But haven't had time enough to fix the bugs will hopefully get time tomorrow after work
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Karolinho:
maybe there is a way to make default sony camera?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Why do you want default camera.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Karolinho:

[MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION] off charging reboot after a few minutes

Battery drain a lil bit fast

Have to enabled hw overlay to get rid of glitches in home screen

I change the desk.txt in bootanimation to make it full screen

Ill stick to this rom for awhile hope itll fix in the next update

Thanks a lot [MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION]
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] drumcodex:
Strange i have very good battery life. Dont know which launcher u are using but with nova you can force scrolling background, then the glitches stops, without screewing with HW overlay
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chrissoriano:
Will try mate
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I have no issues with overlay but other people have so must be something there, i will add it to the list of things to look into. Im hoping i can start to help out with the kernel as my knowledge increases. I want to change the boot animation anyhow dont like the beanstalk on much. Battery drain i think has alot to do with the video part of the kernel. Will get better the more the kernel does.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chrissoriano:
thanks for this glitches disappear...

I love this ROM,I try a lot of aosp ROM but seems this rom

is much stable than others,

but still phone have a reboot bug while charging off..

will wait for an update....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PurlingNayuki:
I dont like them either. They're noticing that you're using BeanStalk everywhere, besides its logo frightens me.

ok i will wait...

can you tell me if the rom already uploaded?thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I uploaded it a couple of months ago now and was working up till last week when they started doing the upgrade of the servers. Not sure when it stopped working and hopefully it is only for today. If it isnt fixed by tomorrow i will build it again and post it to the xda servers.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Updated ROM to the latest CM sources, fixed up camera issues and video recording. Videos should play properly now. Removed some of the branding. Will work on getting rid of the rest. Hit the download button at the top.

Thanks to steveeJ for his help on the camera issues.

I'm leaving for class soon and am really grateful for the quick response chief
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
12mp camera now with working 1080p recording. Still the same version because unlike my other beanstalk this one is still getting updated from the developer and i wish to keep the same version scheme as he does. I will just amend the date at the end with any new device specific update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
From now on if people could please use the bug report button on the top and post any issues up there it would be great. I might not use the phone the same as everyone here and as such might not realize that there is a problem. Feel free to post it as a discussion here to as other people might have a solution but it will give me a checklist.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PurlingNayuki:
OK I've tested PC connection and it work pretty well for me. I am used to keeping debugging on but never encountered these problems so far. So I think though it works for now, there still exists a bug and should be reported.

All seems ok after switching usb debugging off and on again - phone charging and adb. Strange but off/on solved the problem.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Yeah sorry I found the same solution where turning off and on fixed the problem I should have let you guys know but forgot all about it. Not sure how to fix it so report the bug for sure but probably one of those things that will be fixed in a later version of the actual ROM not something I fix.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] schnuff*1:

Battery draining over night is by 5%, really good (data on).

I only miss the governors and other cpu adjustments. Awsome rom!

Thank you!

Battery life is farfar better in this new rom! For me it is anyway. Indeed restarting helps with the weird charging issue. It charges but it does not register as having charged all the time.

Much less random reboots, I was so ready to give up but now the phone has e new lease on life :good:

How to update supersu, or replace with superSUpro ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] schnuff*1:
Why do you need this?

If you want to change things in system - use rootexplorer.

I works for me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomest:
It is because 'Nandroid Manager' app dont like this version. I get an notification: this app does not support default 4.3+ superuser, its recommended to download SuperSU or clockworkmod's superuser and install it via recovery.

Titanium Backup do not like it too.

In system apps, i don't see superuser app, if i move new superuser app to system, will it replace default one ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] teddy0209:
Install supersu by flashing or via playstore, open it and grant it root access, then disable the buildin superuser on the phone settings. If you want to update to pro you just need to buy it and install...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I noticed the lag too but it was a memory issue so i used titanium backup to disable google+ and goomanager because at the moment im not using it for updates and it is down anyhow and everything seems snappier with plenty of memory.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zaidx:
hi

can you port your rom to xperia s lt26i ?

thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] schnuff*1:
Ok., will try this .

Another thing: camera freezes sometimes in vidoe mode (1080 or 720p) at the end of recording. After this camera isn't nomore available.

A reboot brings the camera back.

I tried the "Lenovo super camera" - there is this problem not present. But there are other little problems with this camera....

Once again - thanks for your hard work for the Acro S users!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Sorry cant be done till you have a proper worker kernel and it looks like opensemc still havent gotten it to work. I could build it i wouldnt have to port it but then i would still have the same issues you have with No signal or Camera. The hardware must be somewhat different then the XS and XAS.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Thanks for that i have been trying to figure out the issue but havent had much time to devote to it. I also just tried building beanstalk and i just got errors that i now have to figure out. Plus raymanfx just pushed all his kitkat sources and i have been experimenting with those to see if i can get them to work.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I have noticed with previous versions of this rom it has done that, but the latest version hasnt done it to me yet. For me it was a matter of just turning off wifi and turning it back on. It only happens on 1 of my 2 dlink routers.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
No sorry with kitkat just being released i doubt i will have much time to improve on 10.2 so will be straight onto 10.3 hopefully there is a bit of time before the next release of android so that were able to iron out a few of the bugs.

It seems that progress has stalled on the jb43 branch and has moved onto the kitkat branch so no updates are available atm im afriad.

Feedback after 2 weeks of using version 11/05

Hi, just a feedback after using the latest version for about 2 weeks.

I am really pleased with the rom so far! The features are really awesome and I would never have expected to run 4.3 on this phone so smoothly.

I just noticed two smaller problems:

1) Camera button does not work

2) When changing screen brightness by swiping the task bar it always kind of bounces back

A real problem seems to be not enough ram as I sometimes get apps closed (happens often with the keyboard in the browser, no error it just closes and stays away, or any fitness tracker app). Enabling zRam helped a little but still it's worth than the 4.1 rom I had before. Any ideas?

Thanks for your work! Looking forward to possibly see a 4.4 version soon :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I actually saw a fix to the ram issue on another kernel and was going to add it and see if it fixed it. But with my experimenting with other features I didn't get around to it. Just playing around on omnirom atm to see if it Is worth swapping my beanstalk base to that.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Manyak_izh:
Seem's like there's a memory leak in System_UI. If i restart it once a day, it frees a huge amount of memory.

I can confirm that rebooting fixes the problem for a short amount of time.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Will take a look and see if i can pinpoint the issue. Maybe a recompile with updated CM sources will help, might see what i can do.

Your best bet is to use xposed framework it has the theme chooser in that as well as any other of the tweaks that were in beanstalk you just have to hunt them down.
