I'm using ArchiDroid V2.2.3 + boeffla kernel. original camers was buggy, but still working (picture+video).

after i installed your mod, video won't work any more!

followed the instructions:

when i switch to video mode, it just get stuck for a minute or two, after it app is killed, when i reopen the camera i get "can't connect to camera error" until next reboot.

i forgot to make a backup. is there i was i can bring the previous camera or it's lost and i must reinstall the entire room? took me hours to make the settings :p
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] xda-con:
HDR mode is not working: it takes 3 pics but only one is saved and is same as normal shot.

Shooter sppeed seems usless, take a foto at fastest speed and one at slower is same thing.

And I have problems with videos, almost every time FC.

Is there a way to restore the old stock camera of 4.3??
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
For "can't connect camera" error you can use restart camera apk, I adding link to op, and also creating restore zip of 4.3 camera, so stay tuned

For "can't connect camera" error you can use restart camera apk, I adding link to op, and also creating restore zip of 4.3 camera, so stay tuned

I never used HDR mode, even on cm10.1, this camera will work same as 10.1 camera. as same never used shutter speed, let me check these on cm10.1, if same bugs on cm10.1 then i can't do anything for that.

for restoring 10.2 camera, I creating zip of that.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
restore cm 10.2 camera zip added.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] matroznakelnni:
I still have a problem... :(

Yes, the camera restore is working, but every startup should i use this?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
not for every startup, its only needs once when you flash new rom..
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
maybe clear data of gallery..

.

Sorry, but I m using same mod from 1 month, but not a single issue.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] matroznakelnni:
But if i not use the restart.apk, the camera is not working.

Update won't take?

Hi :)

Thanks so much for providing this! I tried out Photosphere from this url:

[URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2436804"[How To] How to get Photosphere on CM 10.2[/URL]

then decided I needed my power button shutter and ability to store to external SD card so I flashed your 10.1 zip to get that back. The interesting thing is that the 4.3 stock camera is still there, even after the flash, and wiping both caches. I tried it twice to make sure I did it right! Never had this happen before. Any thoughts as to why this might happen?

Thanks very much!

using Paranoid android RC 3.99 (JB 4.3)

the restart camera apps fixes for me the problem ,while using the camera, but when i use it from lockscreen or the face recognision on the lockscreen than the first time it works, the second time i get the error constantly
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
This will replace your current camera app and gallery app to cm10.1 camera and gallery.

Tested on : Official cm10.2 nightlies, Temasek's Unofficial cm10.2, Temasek's Unofficial cm11.0.

Works on : Mostly all CM/AOSP based roms like PA, Omni,,AOKP, Carbonn Rom, PAC, etc.

Update V2 :

1. Support for 4.4 roms.

2. Using latest lib provided by DhiruCVR.

What you will get :

1. Storage to external SD. (Tested on Temasek's cm11 builds)

2. Timely synchronized flash when auto focus is on.

3. All camera features those were available on cm10.1 nightlies.

Bugs :

1. Power shutter force close on 4.4 roms and breaks camera and gallery, wipe gallery data From "Settings => Apps => All=> Gallery => clear data" for fixing

2. you tell me.

So now I'm suppose to flash rom without wiping. Then boot to system, and then boot back to recovery and flash lib?? And then flash rom with wipe? I'm not getting this. After flashing lib I find issues with video. So I flashed the cm fix.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mad_ady:
Your work looks promising! I admit, I haven't read the whole thread, but do you think your library can implement a bitrate selector for video? So far, I've noticed that most cameras rely on system libs to set the video bitrate, and the bitrates I've seen are around 15-20Mbps for 720p video. This is overkill, as I have to manually reencode the video with 4Mbps and I get no visible quality loss. I'd love to have an option to select my desired bitrate for the resolution I'm shooting at, so that users can compromise between "quality" and disk space.

I know that it is possible to set a custom bitrate when starting recording (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaRecorder.html#setVideoEncodingBitRate(int), but I haven't seen any camera app implementing this...

Thanks

i flashed the CM version...now ok...video working...

---------- Post added at 05:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:46 AM ----------

still don't understand this instruction.

flash rom without wipe.

flash lib.

flash rom again with wipe?

then gapps.

then boot back to system?

thx rohan...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] pietro18m:
Hi, i am on Omni. If i install the V3 / OmniRom Lib V2 , how can i return to the original camera?

And if i update the rom, the camera return to the original?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Yeti47:
Safest way is to format system before you flash your rom back. It will remove the addon.d scripts that keep it restored. You'll have to reflash gapps, kernel and supersu back again.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
I gave above steps because of removing camera backup script/

flash rom without wipe.

flash lib.

flash rom again without wipe

then gapps.

then boot back to system.

.

else you need to delete backup script file from system and then flash again rom without wipe for gaining stock camera.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] elitetoniv:
thx for the awesome explanation.

i flash back stock rom...and then back to slimkat. when installing slimkat i flash the lib. i think already deleted the camera backup script when flashing stock rom.

thx a lot rohan...

Camera still crashes after taking few pictures on latest 14th April nightly :( who ever said that we don't need this fix is talking bullsh*!t! It's still very much needed.

DSLR Camera Pro one sale

Just wanted to share that DSLR Camera Pro is currently on easter sale. Like so many other camera apps it also can't be used from the lock screen (god and the snap camera dev know why) and it also has no video mode, but it has a very non-invasive and accessible UI. Focus control is excellent. I'm not a pro photographer but it appears to me that its functionality is more than complete.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] forumber2:
I can't find commit on gerrit, but here some commits about camera from github;

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] xrad:
Just in case somebody missed this: Google has released their camera app. It looks pretty, but I'm not sure how usable the UI really is. It's also wasting a lot of screen real estate. Worst thing though is that it fails for me reliably leaving the camera unconnectable until a reboot. I'm on CM11 APR-16 nightly.

I'm using official CM11 nightly. Same probs when I'm on Slimkat.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] doubleu:
Just came back to CM11 after some time on digiblur MK4 to see if i noticed a huge difference in camera quality. Google camera crashes for me just like for other people; all i did to trigger it was change to the front-facing camera. Now even after a reboot, i get FCs trying to open Google Camera. The regular camera "works fine" though (meaning no FCs, i can use all functions, etc. even while google camera is FC'ing. I can get Google Camera to work again by clearing settings.)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] eksoccer99:
All devs are going to have to work their magic incorporating the new Google camera. I'd wait..

Yea, for now you can't even install it from play store or from APK with CM11. Stock CM11 camera is in the way.

I deleted the stock camera app with root explorer then tried installing the 4.3 apk with no dice, dropped it into system app and rebooted and all is good. Installed the second apk (new google camera) installed fine. I've been playing with the features for only 45 minutes or so but so far it is working good. You will end up with two camera apps but that's an easy fix by deleting the 4.3 camera apk using tibu or root explorer.

Edit: the camera itself works great, pics and video. although I am getting fc's when trying to change resolution settings.

@op

First off, thank you for your efforts.

The patch OmniRom-Fixed_camera_Lib_V4.zip stop to work on I9300. Any thought?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gilbertvanhaasen:
I would like these options too in my camera, I've just got CM11-20131211-NIGHTLY-i9300 installed and I have no idea which of the updates I have to install to get the same option as you in your pictures. Excuse my bad english ;)

Please can you contact me how to do this. Thank you!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] FDisk80:
Why did you install a nightly from last year?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gilbertvanhaasen:
To be honest, I have no idea. But I will install now the latest NIGHTLY, will this bring back all the camera functions?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] FDisk80:
What functions are you looking for?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gilbertvanhaasen:
For me the most important one is the burst mode, when I used the camera in stock 4.3 I was able to make 20 pictures in a row. I always use this when I go skating with my 10 year old son, he always wants me to make pictures when he got a new trick.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] FDisk80:
Install the nightly from Today. The stock camera in CM11 works pretty good without any fix and it does have Burst Mode.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gilbertvanhaasen:
I'm trying, I've already downloaded it but now it seems my computer doesn't "see" my phone :confused:

Never had that before .. but I will get it to work and when it's installes I will let you know how it worked out.

Thanks so far!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] FDisk80:
Just use the built in updater in CM11.

Go to "Settings / About phone / CyanogenMod updates", Change "Update types" to "New versions (incl. Nightlies)" and refresh the page.

Currently last update is "cm-11-20140422-NIGHTLY".
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gilbertvanhaasen:
It worked like I wanted and the next NIGHTLY I will do that like you said. Everything is back like you said and it seems to be working fine. Thank you for your help!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
download mod v4. you will get all those options...

.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gilbertvanhaasen:
I tried both v4 updates but with both the burst mode is gone. I found that really strange because when you look at the screenshots it is there.

There are also more options then in mine. I also tried to make a screenshot (in Android 4.3 on a S3 push the Home + Power button) for you guys to show but that didn't work either unfortunately.

What's also gone is a way to take a picture with a voice command. Like saying 'Shoot', 'Smile' you were able to make pictures.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] SuperAce609:
I get the can't connect to camera error after flashing v4.0. What i used to flash was v2.3 which never gave me that problem but the shutter not working and auto focus issues were.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] SuperAce609:
Though the restart camera asked for SU access out of no where and then after granting it, camera started working. But out of all the times I've used that app, it never once has asked for root access.

I'm guessing it's needed to have it work but to make it ask for it is a mystery. Keep tapping until it does? No idea. Hopefully no more errors.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
hey, just downloaded slimrom latest..

and guess what ?

slimrom using lib from my thread or they compiled private lib and added to rom from this commit : https://github.com/dhiru1602/androi...mmit/d403df086e80b0bd5fc0d1d07e783c1594f1d26f

cause I checked it, same bugs, same size..

check that, snapshot while recording is broken after few shots, camera is not responsive, you need to kill app..

also face detection implemented but showing face at wrong place, continuous picture mode is stopping focus after 1st shot ..

.

so its same, and yes, with my mod, google camera is working fine, that is why its working good in slim rom.

But as per this commit from slim rom, i9300 must be using proprietary blob, but its actually using lib with compiled by above [MENTION=2875964]dhiru1602[/MENTION] commit.

also, that commit is not merged in common tree : https://github.com/SlimRoms/device_samsung_smdk4412-common/commits/kk4.4, so I have no idea how they doing this..

.

so only cm is on proprietary blob..

omni uses open HAL and slim using lib from this thread..
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Buckycasuals:
To cut the whole thing short. How is this cam compared to CM camera?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:

for a quick test, just push the libs in system on your current rom, no need to flash whole rom again..

Have you already tried deleting the data for the Play store app in app management? Also, I think Titanium Backup has some tools to fix/check/... your apps' market link, may help too.

Personally I find the Google camera a bit overrated in terms of usability and options. Combined with the obscene amount of permissions this app wants I have decided for now that I don't want to give Google eyes into my life. Yes, other gapps also have too many permissions, but opening a local camera to them this way is not for me.

Cam fix for Note 2 (N7100)

I am using a Note 2 (international version)

I recently installed CM 10.2 on this phone using the CM MAC installer. I thought it only installs the stable builds. I have gone through the known issues for CM 10.1 and 10.2 for Note 2 and CM wiki page shows only "TV-Out is non-functional" as the issue.

Now My camera doesn't work properly. Every now and then it says "Cannot connect to Camera"

I have gone through all the pages of this thread and found that there are fixes for Galaxy S3 with CM roms.

Can someone please tell me which is that one zip file I need to fix all the camera related issues on my Note 2 with CM 10.2 installer version ROM.

I also dont have the exact idea of how to install the patches. So if one can tell me the steps of how to use the zip would be very appreciated.

I have another question. If I install this fix, would that stop from detecting/installing the new OTA updates which would be released by CM team?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] bifter:
Appreciate the work but this still doesn't fix the problem for me (SGS4M on CM11), after 20s or so "Can't connect to camera". Suggests some kind of buffer filling up perhaps? Driving me nuts, please don't make me go back to Smelly Sam!

Edit: Seems to be working now. I wiped the cache for a few apps, including camera, then cleared Dalvik and Partition caches before rebooting. Wierd issue!

Update: Nailed it! An app called Smart Stay + that does the same job as the eye tracking feature in TW. In all my fiddling described above this app got deactivated. As soon as I activated it (Settings/Accessibility/Services) the issue presented again. I'm sure it's due to Smart Stay accessing the front-facing camera periodically to check for eye contact.
