Hello, I also have exactly the same problem with rom ArchiDroid 2.5.1 (based CM11 KK4.4.4).

I have not found a solution to run this app with this rom :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] howie040:
Tnx worked on Sony z1 4.4.4 with CM based rom!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] gaspariperez:
Nothing?.. :/
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
sorry, but I did not have i9305 for test, so, cant do much for that..
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] beppemila:
Do I get stock camera/video quality with this fix?

Otherwise, what's the purpose of it?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] gaspariperez:
Do you have the possibility to try fix it at all? I can test it as long as I can restore nandroid if something goes wrong haha, maybe I can ask for help in the i9305 forums if it's ok with you

Did you delete camera2.odex from /system/app?

EDIT:

I've flashed it on ArchiDroid 2.5.1 and rebooted. Camera icon stayed the same and got FC error, then I deleted Camera2.odex and still FC. I reflashed the zip again and now everything is working perfectly. Camera is killing the old one, I love it.

I suggest that OP should be changed that old camera odex files should be removed prior of flashing the zip!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] caiofederici:
My camera crashed!

I was trying to fix my camera problem and now I have no camera working!! I flashed the zip file and reboot my android. When I was looking for the camera app, it was gone. Now I have no app for the camera. Can anyone help me?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] alexfiorani:
You need to flash your system again in order to get the camera back. In recovery, format system and flash rom + gapps (no need to wipe data) and you are good to go.

I've come to find that this mod breaks more things than it fixes. My stock CM11 camera is more reliable than any of the ones provided here. My only problem is video recording (know cm issue) and when I flash any version of this mod I start to have serious camera crashes and FCs. I aways end up reflashing my system to get the stock camera again.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] caiofederici:
I want to get back from stock rom too, the original room from my GT-I9300. But I don't know how to do that. Can you help me? You have any tutorial to help me? What is the last built available? If you can tell me what to do I'll be appreciated. Sorry for the bad english!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] alexfiorani:
In order to get back to stock you'd have to flash the entire system using odin or find a flashable zip of the stock rom, and even though I'm pretty sure I've seen that zip somewhere, I couldn't find one in a quick search. My advice for you is to stay with a TW based rom. I really liked Android Revolution HD. It is based on the latest stock rom for the i9300 and is tweaked for performance and battery life. It is just like the stock rom (with the stock camera), but with some nice modifications.

Take a look at the AR xda thread and if you like just download it and flash via recovery, I'm sure you wont regreat it.Make sure to wipe data in the aroma installer, and no need to flash any gapps package. Tell me how it goes.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] vyp54:
For me (Archodroid 2.x - CM11 based) this mod doesn't fix anything but it flashes the new CM11S camera which is a great improvement over the old one. Cyanogenmod fixed their camera FC after taking second video a week ago.

I've tested video recording - it can take snaps, it can record first video, second video, any video. Snapper is working great also - front and back one.

However I found one bug: When you open camera for the first time- you can choose modes by swiping up and down. For the back camera the default first one is Auto, and for the front camera the default is Mono which is in color on the first startup. The back camera is ok on all modes you pick and you can stick with Auto. But there is a bug on the front one - if you accidentally or on purpose switch to any mode that it supports, there is no option of coming back to normal mode since there is no Auto for front facing camera. You can stay in Sepia, Mono (which is now not in color, but black & white), Negative or any other modes that do not reproduce real colors.

Workaround for this is to clear data&cache of camera app and never switch the mode for front facing camera. Guys please try this and tell me if this is global. :good:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] woodman:
Exactly the same behaviour for me with camera from CM11S on Liquidsmooth ROM. It seems to be global.

EDIT : tested on i9305.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] vyp54:
Does anyone know where are the sources from to report this bug?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] gaspariperez:
+1. I just set the front camera to "point blue" filter and it works, as the filter does nothing (it's broken).

To those talking about removing .odex files, I didn't find any .odex file in system/app (i9305).

I really don't get why this mod fully works on Liquidsmooth but not on any other rom like CM or Carbon. I have to flash the Omni version for those roms and it doesn't improve the quality as much as the CM fix...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] woodman:

Report to Dhiru1602 xda user for libs

Not sure but maybe thanks to this on johnnyslt's post #203
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] gaspariperez:
Now that explains a lot. Why haven't other devs also done this? Can this be merged to the AOSP sources for our devices (i9305)?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] woodman:
We could kindly ask our favorite dev to make a build for tests with commits that [MENTION=2941594]johnnyslt[/MENTION] has done a month ago about this. But I think the ROM has to include Sammy's camera blob and this famous "camera wrapper" initially coded for i9300...

About including this on AOSP sources, it's a bit complicated (here some clues at posts 4131 and 4132)...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] filipepro:
Hi! I'm on a i9300 and PAC-Man ROM 4.4.4. Nightlies haven't solve this video recording issue. Is there anyway to have this "CM Video Fully working Camera" on my ROM?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] pabloyan:
I ended up installing another rom based on stock purely cause I couldnt stand the non-30fps camera
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] alexfiorani:
Problems Solved

ALL PROBLEMS SOLVED.

Please read until the end.

As everybody here, I also had a bunch of problems with the general AOSP camera, specially the CM one. On CM's latest nightly (07/29/2014) all my issues have been solved. Let me explain:

On this nightly the stock camera is worse than ever, pictures are fine, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to record videos, it aways FC as soon as I press the record button. The strange (and good) thing is that the Google Camera has no problems at all. That is right, everything works perfectly in the gCamera.

Here is what I have tested and works:

- Pictures

- Video recording is perfect :good:

- you can take pictures while recording without problems, I took 10 snapshots while recording a 1 min video and everything was just fine, no FCs or errors.

- all other gCamera modes are working normally.

WHAT DOESN'T WORK IN GCAMERA:

-Currently the only problem I had was while trying to take a snapshot while recording a video using the front facing camera. The Camera force closed but I just opened it again and it was working fine, no "can't connect to the camera" error.

-If you have "save location enabled" the GPS isn't turned off after you exit the camera. You can disable that function on the camera settings or just swipe the camera away from "recents apps" after you use it and the GPS is turned off, and you should be fine.

Be aware that the gCamera doesn't support SD cards by default (use and xposed module to change that if you want) and doesn't have so many "features" (like color modes or those things nobody ever uses).

Anyway, hope someone can test this and confirm that the gCamera is indeed working just fine.

My device is the i9300 running CM11 on ART with stock kernel FYI.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] vyp54:
I can't recall the exact date but the camera FC after trying to record second video in a row was fixed a few nightlies after M8 snapshot. I use Archidroid which is based on CM11 and I had no more issues after the dev updated it's base with the latest nightly avaliable from CM.

My suggestion to you is that you make a backup of your current state, then wipe all (system, cache, data, everything) and install the latest CM11 nightly from the CM's site (http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=i9300). If your video recording problems go away it means that your dev is messing with the camera.

As I can see Pac Man ROM is built from CM, AOKP and PA. Maybe the dev is using camera libs from AOKP/PA.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] filipepro:
Thanks. It worked but didn't have to try CM because PacMan Dev corrected it on latest realease.

Anyway... Thank you very much
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] vyp54:
I've got 99 apps but a GC ain't one. :silly: (screenshot)

The only thing I had GC (Google Camera) installed for is the "Lens Blur" effect that stock camera doesn't have. Unfortunately while procesing and rendering lens blurred photo the GC force closes itself and the photo can not be completed. Since that doesn't work and the CM11S camera from this mod is better in everything else the only conclusion is CM11S Camera > Google Camera.

This is indeed my opinion since the CM11S camera works flawlessly for me (apart the bug mentioned in a few posts above) and Google Camera has only 1 extra feature which doesn't work.

I made a lot of videos using this wonderful camera v5 with my S3. Few days ago my s3 fell down and broke itself.

Now i've a new S5 but unfortunately i cannot play the video made with this fix v5. I made the videos using cm11+fix v5.

Is that any particular codec in the fix or something I can do to play this videos?

Thanks everybody
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] insane2103:
try it on pc, using media player classic or just download the k=lite codec pack...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mad_ady:
It might be due to the fact that videos are encoded with variable framerate. I used custom scripts + handbrake to make them well behaved.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] skynet.84:
on the pc they are perfectly playable (I use vlc) ....????...

Do you mean to rencode them?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] SuperAce609:

Is there any way to uninstall this camera app and restore the original camera app that came with CyanogenMod? Tried reinstalling and even loaded one of the more recent nightlies and this camera app still remains. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Dasugo:
Thank you soo much for this. The camera has been my biggest pet peeve on this phone and your zip just fixed it. I dont need to do anything. Many thanks.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mad_ady:
I'm basically using a custom script (written in perl) to transcode all my files with this command (part of HandbrakeCLI):

Refer to HandbrakeCLI's manual to understand what the settings do and replace $infile and $outfile with the actual file names.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Mostafa Wael:
I am now on Nameless ROM (yeah the ROM that uses the R4P0 drivers) So which version do i use? the one for the blob camera or the one for open-source HAL camera

CM version or Omni version?

Thanks alot
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] skynet.84:
Thanks for your help! I managed to convert my videos with handbrake!

Thank you very much my friend! :thumbup:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] bornlivedie:
None.

This fix is worthless now, even for Omni (not using open source camera hal anymore). It's more useless than ever for Nameless-Rom.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Mostafa Wael:
why? because of working H/W composer on Nameless ROM

Or is the fix working no more with newer nightlies?

Thank you so much!. :good:

Working nice in I9300 - ArchiDroid 2.5.2

This worked for me:

1. Reboot to recovery.

2. Flash zip.

3. Wipe cache and dalvik.

4. Reboot phone normally.

4.5. (I tried to launch the camera installed by the fix but gave me an error: the camera has stopped, i couldn't start the camera app, then i did the point 5 like someone said posts before)

5. In /system/app delete Camera2.odex file.

6. Reboot again.

And that's it :cool:

Even if the V6 comes it still won't work for you. This is for i9300 (and works for some on i9305). Why would you flash it to n7105? :eek:

Unless you made a backup, you'll have to reinstall your system.

Sorry, I know that this is not the section for s2 but thought that I should ask to see if there's a possible solution. I'm using i9100g CM11 4.4.4 and camera does not work. May I know if flashing this will work? I tried v4 and v5 and both doesn't work, is there a compatible version for i9100g?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] vyp54:
This mod is found under i9300/9305 forums and is not guaranteed to work on other devices. If you feel that flashing this to your device might work, go ahead and try. Or you can just follow the sensible way and not flash it since it doesn't work.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Dingo1:
Hi! v.5 doesn't work on my galaxy s3. I still have this : "Unfortunately Camera has stopped" if I close camera and then open it again. Clear cache in app settings and reboot helps to fix it but only for 1 next usage until it is closed. I tried to use alternative camera additionally such as Snap Camera but it has the same behaviour. I'm using Temasek unofficial CM11 v.121 with AGNI@PSN-pureCM Kernel v.2.8.4, ART and F2FS. Any ideas?

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] sahandv1989:
installed version 2.2 in cm11 but there is big problem.... video recording is not working it means when you touch record bottom nothing happen....

then i downloaded version 2.1 and installed works super fine but there is 2 problems....

1. when you change your storage for recording and picturing you have to restart the phone to working the camera recording

2. when i want to delete the photo or video in gallery it says that deleted but actually its not deleted and when you open your file manager or restart the phone there are all you deleted back... i mean that the deleting photo or video in gallery doesnt work....

but other things are awsome in version 2.1

I noticed back on page 4, you say:

I installed v2.2, and I'm having bug #1, and clearing gallery data is not fixing it for me. :( I tried it a few times to be sure, and rebooted, just for fun. Was hoping you might have a suggestion? I'm running this KitKat 4.4 ROM, just FYI. Latest 11/24 build.

Thank you so much for your time
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] RohanAJoshi:
did you tried new 2.2 version ?

for me, 2.2 does not showing power shutter option at all.

anyway, just flash youe rom again and then this mod, after don't touch to power shutter.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chrisneal:
Interesting. Definitely did the 2.2 version, and do have a power shutter option. Although selecting it sometimes FC gallery as well. I'm sad. I really was hoping to get my power shutter back!

Urgh. I installed this but it's it worse. Followed someone else's advice of deleting data/cache for camera and gallery and deleting camera2.odex then re-installing, but still nothing.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Yeti47:
Format system partition and reappply the 2.5.2 ROM again. Data will stay as is, archidroid will install cm and gapps, camera and gallery are back to std cm.

Hi,I flashed the CM_Fixed_Camera_for_CM_All_AOSP_roms_by_RohanAJoshi_V5.0 on carbon Rom and I have gallery FC on starting camera. Is it the wrong file?

Edit: I used the omni Rom variant now, it's running. I think that should be written the subscription.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9305 mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] vyp54:
No it shouldn't. You should know what your ROM is based on. It even says in the friggin title of the topic. The creator of the mod sure doesn't have time to look up every ROM and make notes for lazy people like you. No offense.

This is for Archidroid 2.x. If you flashed it on 1.x it won't work.

First of all be sure you're on latest ArchiDroid (2.5.3 at the moment) and download V5 zip from the OP. Then go to system/app and delete "Camera2.apk" and "Camera2.odex". Delete them with a file manager of some sort. Then turn the device off and from recovery flash V5 zip two times in a row. Wipe Dalvik cache and reboot.

It worked that way for me on AD 2.5, 2.5.1, 2.5.2 and now on 2.5.3.

fresh install of one of the last nightly builds of CM11 (sept 18) + this fix

I had a crash using the official "Google camera" from the playstore, in photosphere mode.

Then the same usual message "Cannot connect to camera", from the Google Camera app, and the new one from this thread.

Restart Camera fixed the issue.
