Camera not working

Hey guys, I just followed the steps:

1. Flash galaxy_player_2.3.6.tar.md5 (stock cwm ROM) with odin

2. Use cwm to install Slim-venturi_usa-4.2.2.build.7.5-UNOFFICIAL-20130727-0459.zip

3. Use cwm to install GApps Core 4.2.2.zip

4. Use cwm to install Sultan-kernel-Venturi-r6b2-US.zip

I started my device up, and the rear camera won't record video or take pictures. The pictures simply won't take, and when I switch to video mode, the camera program exits to the home screen and says "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped."

I also don't see google apps, but I understand I missed a step and I'll solve that as soon as I get the camera working.

Thanks for any help in advance!

How do I use the camera with CM 10.1?

use the fast burst camera app can be found free on playstore

I installed CM9 before this setup, but the external and internal memories are still switched. Can you be a little more specific as to the process? Thanks so much!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] heet1:
It's going to do that regardless of the order you flash the zips in. So you really can't change it
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] coltoverson:
So there's no way to switch the mounting of the internal and external memories?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] heet1:
I doubt it... In CM10.1 you could swap them I don't know about this one though
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
I believe there is a way. Something about build.prop editing. Can't remember the exact.... vold.switchable.pair=1 or something close to that....

Hello folks! I'm a happy owner of a HTC one x with ViperRom Sense 5, android 4.2.2 - the system is perfect, stable, battery friendly and many other good stuff.

So, I had a Galaxy Nexus two years ago, but I was stolen :crying: and I loved the pure android experience..

I know, for HTC One X, there are many "pure" android available, like AOKP, AOSP, CM and other in Android original development.. However I almost tried all Rom's, and the closer rom to Nexus experience is XenonHD and CM, but both of them have low volume and dark pictures :(

Is there some suggestion from you guys? How can I have a similar Nexus Experience..? With good volume and good picture quality?

Thanks in advance!

Regards from BRazil :cowboy:
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
All are having that problem therefore use sense roms to get good volume and good camera quality ;) because aosp etc can't use the imagesense chip inside

V4A is really easy to install you have to choose the cortex neon driver or so ...I think in both apps it's the last option in install drivers

I personally prefer Kii Keyboard. It's fully customizable and themable, you can change the size of the keys, the whole keyboard, how the keyboard works, etc. It's got all the functionality of the Google Keyboard and more too. Totally worth the cash, and it works with every keyboard theme out there that I've tried.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CalcProgrammer1:
My favorite keyboard has been Hacker's Keyboard for a while now. It is great for terminal/remote desktop as it has all the control and modifier keys. Also has a real PC-like layout with number row, arrows, punctuation, and tab with a numpad, home/ins/del block, F keys, and more on the second page. Also very customizable. I don't like autocorrect or suggestions so a good basic keyboard is perfect for me. It's open source as well.

Another vote for Kii Keyboard here. I've been an Android user since the G1 five years ago. I've literally tried every single keyboard I've found over the years. All the popular ones, right down to the smallest, obscure ones. And IMO, Kii Keyboard beats them all. Heavily customizable, and extremely responsive and accurate. I type pretty quickly, and it works flawlessly for me. It has lots of great features that make it a pleasure to type out long emails or messages.

There are lots of ROMs available now!

Maybe a little more to your point (and why I've fought off the urge to flash 4.2+ Sense and AOSP ROMs) now that the default will ROM will be on the new /0/ file structure, going back and forth will not be a problem.

Motorola is selling this portable phone charger on their website, but there is almost no information on it anywhere (or at least, none that I can find).

http://www.motorola.com/us/accessories-batteries-chargers/Power-Pack-3000/Power_Pack_3000.html

Does anyone own one or can they perhaps offer some information on it?

How long does it take to charge the pack and how long does the pack take to charge a phone?
[Moto X Q&A] lensgrabber:
For that price I would look at the New Trent line instead. I got a 12,000mAh battery for $50 shipped from Amazon. It's $60 now (ASIN: B00DUKJ5CQ)

I would guess for a 3000mAh battery it would take around 3 hours to fully charge the battery with a 1 amp charger. Probably 2 hours to charge the phone.

Hello guys!

I've been searching for the so called cLock app (the one which has got a great stock like widget with weather and calendar notif), which is included in some custom roms. I also would like to know, wether it's compatible with stock 4.3 on nexus 4.

I have googled for it, but unfortunately google doesn't make difference between small L in clock, so I couldn't search for cLock.

Thanks :)

I used to work at the Best Buy Samsung Experience Shop. I went by there the other day. They have a tool that updates your phone to MF3 and it doesn't remove hardly any data. I rerooted and reinstalled safestrap and everything was still there.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] br0adband:
So, this begs the obvious question: do you have any friends at that Best Buy that could maybe, you know... <hint hint> hit you up with a copy of whatever software they're using to do that? :D

HEY I HAD TO ASK!!! :p
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] fegarciaii:
I did this the other day and say that this works perfectly! So glad to be back on MF3!!
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] chronicaust:
I don't think I can get a copy. The best I can do is make a flashable backup afterward and upload it. = / the software downloads it from a server.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] pyro254750:
I don't think he was asking for the file specifically but rather a copy of the software they are using. It's logical to assume that if we were able to obtain a copy of the software they use at best buy the it could still be made to download and flash the appropriate mf3 firmware file from anywhere with an internet connection.

Your best bet is to call and ask at your local best buy. That's what I did. My best buy is small but they have one there. I'll be going there this weekend to see if they can update mine.

They can choose to either give you complete factory or just update only just do you know. Good luck it's a great tool I've used it. You should be good = ).

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] br0adband:
Well I stopped by a local Best Buy here in Vegas this morning, sat in line waiting to speak to the "Samsung rep" (there were like 4 people in front of me) and when I was finally up the guy said "Oh, the Samsung rep is right behind me in the other section..." DOH!!!

Anyway, I had returned my GS4A (I537 of course) to MF1 earlier this morning, no root, nothing else but the ROM flashed from that ODIN One-Click that's available and...

The software they're using at Best Buy basically ignored my GS4A completely, recognizing it's running MF1 but it wouldn't do anything else and said the ROM wasn't compatible. The guy asked if I'd been rooted and of course I said "No..." then he said is it unlocked and I said "Yes..." and he said that's why.

I commented that would be a bit stupid since they do sell the phones off-contract and by doing so a person could get the unlock code from AT&T (as I did, actually, through an eBay seller who got it from AT&T) and he just shrugged his shoulders and handed me my phone and that was that. The rep specifically stated 3 times in a row that if it's unlocked you can't flash it with their software, so I made note of it and I'm passing along what at least this one "Samsung rep" stated to me - I can't verify or confirm it's true but that's what he said, 3 times in a row. He never mentioned rooting more than the one question, but was quite adamant that I understood the reason it wasn't working which by his statements was that if the phone is unlocked they can't flash it; I personally think it's a combination of mine being rooted in the past with activeroot and also being (carrier) unlocked as well.

So... I don't think being rooted caused the problem more than being unlocked, but at this point I don't have any clue to be honest, it could actually be a combination of both for whatever reason but this MF1 isn't rooted, that much I know for certain.

Anyway, that's a dead end for me so I'll just put Safestrap back on and load up the AOSP ROM with the MF1 kernel modules and the camera fix and be done with it, that's enough ROM swapping for me for the time being.

So just for the record: if you're thinking about doing this and you've rooted your I537 at any point, that may stop this potential flash of MF3 at Best Buy on your device cold - if it's unlocked that might have something to do with it as well but I'm going to guess they're checking for root even if you've completely restored an unrooted ROM like MF1, or they're just getting wise to us with the MF1 and MI2 pre-release ROMs we've been toying around with, I just don't know.

Would be nice to get MF3 back on here just in case AT&T does drop 4.3 during October but, I guess I'm somewhat "stuck" now since I'd prefer to have working screenshots so that means MF1 or the AOSP ROM.

Just passing along my experience...
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] chronicaust:
Wow that sounds like a horrible experience. What I'm gathering from this is that the rep didn't know what he was talking about. My i537 is also unlocked, rooted, triple booting roms (safestrap) and I got the update just fine.

Here is what I bet happened. The tool they use has 2 different functions, and one isn't as well known. The one they usually use is basically connecting your phone (no download mode) and it updates, and that's that. That one never works. The other one requires them to press ALT + F10 on their keyboard and enter a password to get into the actual system that will give you the update to MF3. My guess is the rep didn't know about this.

I am 100% positive it can be done Br0adband. That rep was clueless.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] br0adband:
Yah, he just plugged in the phone with it on and operational, clicked a tile on the screen (there were like a dozen of them each one supposedly for a different device), and after 20-30 seconds of it reading data from the device it just pulled up the ROM build (MF1) and then said it was incompatible.

Interesting, but I'm not sure if it's worth going back and dealing with the guy a second time - maybe I'll try again later tonight before they close and hopefully someone else will be on shift and I can mention the ALT+F10 thing, hopefully they'll have a clue.

My question to you is: did they require doing the ALT+F10 to get your device flashed properly?

Thanks for that tidbit of info, kinda wish you'd mentioned it earlier but but but... :D
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] fegarciaii:
It took the rep a few tries with mine... And one of those he switched the cable. I'd try a different best buy (if u can) or wait till someone else is at the keyboard. The last few months talking to AT&T tech support, they gave me all kinds of excuses too, but I could tell they had no clue or real skills beyond their training courses. Mine is not unlocked though.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] chronicaust:
Yes sir it did. If they don't know the password, it's probably smart100 if they act like it's a big deal tell them to call their field support hotline. Lolol
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] br0adband:
Not sure if it's worth all this hassle but, we'll see what happens if I decide to head back to Best Buy later. Thanks again for the info.

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] renegaderon:
I just got my phone updated to MF3 at my local Best Buy. First try said it was incompatible, so he called his support line and was told to put phone in download mode to update firm ware. Now I'm on official MF3. The Samsung rep was very cool let me watch the whole process.
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] br0adband:
Will have to pass along that info to the Samsung rep if I do decide to head back to get MF3 installed. Running nicely on MF1 right at this moment so I'll stick with this for the time being. Thanks for the report.

Now if we could just yank that MF3 off yours into a flashable zip or whatever... :D

Pretty sure those days are coming to a close with the 4.3+ releases as Samsung apparently has every intention of locking down everything to as many degrees as possible. :(

Hey guys I'm going back Monday to get my fw upgraded(again xD). I'll get them to do a clean install and I'll upload it to a public dropbox folder. What would be the best way to make the backup?
[Galaxy S 4 Active General] ShimaMiku:
So I've read through this post and wanted to share my experience.

After reading this, I went down to my local Best Buy Samsung department, and the girl there was very nice and helpful. My phone, also on MF1, didn't show up with an update on the system. She didn't even ask questions about anything really. I informed her to the Alt + F10 function, and she did it and logged in. The trick about when they do this is they have to do "phone recovery" with phone in download mode to force the correct image (in this case MF3), but it will not erase your data.

Following this, she practically offered me a job informing me Samsung was hiring. Haha.

P.S. I know there are those of you asking for the zip update, in which I ask if the updates were stored locally on the computer and if I could save it for the future. She said they are not stored on the computer (even though they probably are, as you have to select what what to get from the sever, she was probably just unaware of it and I didn't want to push her), saying they are on the server and it downloads it to install the update when running an update.

So really, this is the instructions to have them fix your phone:

1) Have them pull up their software installer software.

2) Plug in your phone.

3) If detected, have them run update. If not, go to step 4.

4) Have them press Alt + F10 and log in.

5) Run "Phone Recovery."

6) Select SGH-i537 (version ending in MF3) and run.

7) Disconnect phone, put into recovery mode (their system prompts how to do this as well), and reconnect.

8) Install.

Done.
