Rooted EVO Main Camera Malfunction - EVO 4G General

Before I take the phone back to factory and get a new one I wanted to check with the community to see if all of that is necessary or if theres a fix.
With that Said I appreciate any assistance that may come from this thread.
Phone Background
Evo 4g
Rom On When the Camera Died: Fresh 3.5.0.1
Rooted With Unrevoked All was well for 3 months or so till about 4 days after the new Rom
Original Rom was Stock 3.26
Issue camera is not working properly started with
an odd color
Since then I tried to switch Roms to burnt and then back to my stock rom and nothing has helped
I have photos of the issue but since im a new member here it will not let me post them but il pm them to anyone who thinks it will help resolve the issue

Re:OP
plz prvide some more info like what you where doing right b4 it started acting weird.

there was nothing special that I was doing the first time it happened i used the alarm clock in the am, then made a couple of phone calls and accidentally bumped the camera icon when I saw the oddity so i snapped the shot in the elevator. then after work I came home to look at it and all I had was bright cream screen when I load the camera, I have tried using other camera apps and nothing worked. I use the phone mostly for photobucket, Text messages and email.
If theres any other information your looking for just ask
I just pm'ed you the photos i took and once I am allowed to post them I will.

Just wanted to update for anyone who had the same issue, it was a hardware issue from dropping my evo countless times but happily I have an otterbox so it just wiggled the connection loose.
The phone was taken back to stock
Non rooted now its time to get it re rooted if I can ever get it to load recovery but that's for a different thread if search doesn't help me

Top of screen and capacitive buttons unresponsive!

Hey everyone, I woke up this morning to find a surprise! My Atrix screen was unresponsive. It took me a couple reboots to figure out that the top part of the screen doesn't respond to touch. Worse yet, none of the capacitive buttons work. So if I get into an app, most of the time, there's no real way for me to get out of it, thus requiring a reboot and more careful selections.
The weird part is, it happened within a span of about 2 hours. I woke up around 5:30AM, checked some emails and texts, and woke back up around 7AM with a buggy screen. It did drop from about 18 inches off the couch last night. But everything was in working order...
Right now I'm in the process of backing up my text messages, because I might have to use a set of them to prove my case in court.
What's the first steps to try to get it back working? Or do you think its a hardware problem(maybe a cable loose)? As far as returning it under warranty goes, I'm rooted and unlocked on Kenn's GB ROM, so that's a no-go.

you are unlocked/rooted/custom rom = no warranty
anyways backup and maybe reflash the rom and see how that goes.
Hopefully you don't need to replace the digitizer... But if you do, there are lots of videos and it's reported to be one of the easier phones to do. Keep that in your back pocket as an alternative to a lengthy and costly court fight over a phone with no warranty!

Thanks guys, I already knew the risks associated with rooting and unlocking. I used an app called SMS Backup+ that allowed me to backup all my sms/mms and it also linked and sent copies to my Gmail.
I'll go ahead and try a reflash
*EDIT*
Did a quick wipe of the phone, and during setup, everything was OK! When blur came back, it was back to the same thing.
Bump...
Still lost
I would suggest backup all you apps and do a complete wipe of data. I had a similar problem when I first installed Alien. This fixed the issue.

I would do a wipe and reinstall. You could also fix your permissions through rom manager or cwm.

I had a simillar problem: WIPE through CWM solved this problem
hi, guys i had the same problem... I remember getting it shortly after updating it to the leak version of gingerbread. Since then I have flash Alien built #3 but the problem remains...
I'm currently doing a Nandroid backup of my phone so i could try flashing to cherrypie hopefully this will solve my problem cuz I'm seriously feed up with it...
do you guy's think this will help? if so any suggestions before i flash? thanks in advance...
I had this problem brand new out of the box. I just took it to the store and they gave me a new one. One other thing i noticed was the FP sensor/button was almost like loose and i had to push it in real far for it to work. Maybe its a stuck FP button...

[Q] long time watcher and rom user. first time poster.

Hello my name is Xan Steel. I've been trying out roms on this forum for my Epic 4G. However I've run across a lot of bugs in this rom "ACS ICS V6". I would love to be able to post them in the development thread pertaining to the rom, but since I'm under the 10 post limit to post in a dev thread. I would like to ask how I go about doing this the correct way without breaking forum rules.
Thanks in advanced
Xan Steel
Tell us what your problems are here.
1st you have to have 10 post. Go to other threads and comment on stuff like the off topic forum. Then you should be able to post on dev threads. Or you can pm them and let them know.

Well as Neckberg has said to post my issues here (Thanks) I shall.
[ROM] ACS ICS V6.
Where to began.
I came from ACS SyndicateFrozen 1.1.1 I could never get 1.2 to run. And this ROM was based on GB. Really wanted to see what GB was like. SO after installing the ROM. Everything started out normal (no issues at that point). It was sluggish which made me wonder if Carrier I.Q. was still in the ROM. It wasn't listed that it was removed.
SO I started trying things out. Everything was going good until I turned on the Wireless WiFi Tether. It crashed outright. Tried again, and crashed. It would open to a black screen and then crash. So I did some digging, and apparently this is a known issue. So I got a different one from the market that worked (Open Garden WiFi Tether).
I installed Opera. I like Opera for it's desktop mode that actually works over Dolphins. I would type in a address, and hit go, and it would act like its going, and then stop and remove what I had typed. Tried again, and it would load a blank page. Tried a third time, and got the HTML header to load the page in a text format. Uninstalled and reinstalled same thing happen. So I left it alone, and about 3 hours later it had uninstalled itself/completely missing on the phone and market stated it wasn't installed. Rebooted phone, still gone. Not idea where it went. After reinstalling it again. it would do the same thing.
So I flashed and wiped X3. And reloaded the ROM. Thinking I have a bad load.
reinstalled all my apps and even though Opera is still doing it's thing I mentioned earlier, it hasn't uninstalled itself... yet.
Now after the reload of the ROM. Last night I lost cell service (couldn't make calls) but I had data. Which was odd to me. Rebooted the phone, and same thing. Had data but not cell service. After about and hour or so, I have cell and data back together. Maybe it was someone working on the tower in the area at 11pm, or maybe the ROM decided it would be funny.
Another thing I noticed. If you hit the menu button to pull menus in apps and on the home screens. They are white on black. White text and image, on a black background. Now if you go into any sub-menu from the main menu, its black on black. You can't read anything unless your lucky to have a bright white page behind it, so that it can try to bleed through some of the transparency.
The battery icon when charging in portrait goes from normal to skinny (blinking), while in landscape mode it goes from normal to fat (blinking).
Also two music apps is not really needed. One is fine. Trimming down on unneeded apps would help save on space. Also remove Carrier I.Q. if it hasn't been yet.
Adding that super brightness, is actually bad. Not thinking about it, it's actually crashed the video HW of the phone. On a plain white screen at max brightness, it starts to artifact, and if what ever your trying to do doesn't complete. The video HW crashes, and you get a pretty rainbow on the screen until you pull the battery. Basically acts like a dying or dead video card in a PC. Also it can (and has happened to me) cause screen burn in. If you want a image of it let me know and I'll post one.
Also Rom Manager does not recognize any ClockWorkMod Recovery, if you manually install the recovery yourself.
If I find anything else buggy I'll post and update here.
Thanks
Xan Steel
Phone: Epic 4G
ROM: ACS ICS V6
Recovery CWM 3.1.0.1 purple
Note, I haven't tried this rom myself.
No, carrierIQ is not removed on this rom, nor has it been removed on any GB rom that I know of. Still, removed or not, it won't make any difference in the performance of the device.
Any apps that you fine are useless can easily be uninstalled, even if they are installed system/app folder. Rom chefs correct attitude about roms is that they build for themselves first. I personally have 3 music players installed.
We don't have official Rom Manager support so that will be an issue on pretty much all non AOSP roms for the epic.
Your lack of service issue it probably a carrier issue and not a rom issue.

It's a good possibility since it only happened the one time, but since it is a beta, and I'm using it for the first time. I felt it needed to be brought up just in case it wasn't. Heh beta tested a lot of new software, and got into the habit of reporting everything, even if it looks like something else is the issue and not the software.
Many Thanks

Epic 4G Camera Broken!

I have a Samsung Epic 4G, I got it in March of 2011. About 6 months ago the camera started acting up. It would work once (take one picture), then the next time I took a picture or opened the app it would say there was a error with com.android.camera. I could restart the phone and the camera would work again, but break after one use.
I took it to the Sprint store, they did a quick test and said it was not the hardware (I think he tested the wiring)
I did a factory reset, it worked for a day then went back to the same pattern
Then I installed CM7, the camera worked for a day then it completely stopped working (the app wouldn't load).
I installed other camera applications. Retro camera worked some of the time (one shot then break). I think "Fun Camera" loaded, and I could use the front facing camera but the main camera was dark.
I added the camera.zip and camerafirmware.zip to the system/app folder, but couldn't install them (after changing the ext to .apk).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814998
I feel like I'm running out of options, so I wanted to post this up on XDA and see if anyone else has had issues like this, and see what additional steps I could take to fix the camera. I don't know too much about Android but I think I'm tech savvy enough to try anything with the right links to tutorials. Thanks all.
Have you tried going back to stock el30?
See if it works on stock if it continues to force close... take it back to sprint and show them, and they usually give you a replacement if of course it still force closes, and you have TEP you could get one for 35$ I think.

Have you ever updated your camera firmware (from BML Stock?), I know that this has benefited me in the past..........however, once you are on CM9, it' a new camera from ICS .......sounds like your issue follows your firmware.........Not a fix, but have you considered a 3rd party camera app?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Thanks guys. I factory reset my phone before and it still had the issue, I will definitely keep the Samsung warranty as a backup (don't want to send in my phone if I dont have to).
How do I update the camera firmware? I've tried other cameras, retro camera works but only sort of, another camera app works for the front facing cam but not the main rear facing one.

Factory Reset?.......you mean at the sprint store?...........or do you mean you did a factory reset, wiping your data (but leaving your firmware + bad camera untouched)............you can re-install a fresh version of your firmware w/out voiding your warranty, from the sprint website..........or else, as stated above, take your device to the store + let them do it...........that said, camera ZOOM FX has a dandy of a camera that you can DL from the market...........if it works, one more clue where your problem is coming from.

Nevermind, it seems like the camerafirmware.apk file did work (or something else did...). While the camera app didnt install, after I put the camerafirmware.apk file into the system/app folder 3rd party cameras started working again. Anyways, I hope this thread could be a useful reference for others who have this issue. Thanks.

Atrix 4g kitkat ROM{by Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV} ROM problems and fix

Atrix 4g ROM Developer Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV's new ROM v2 gets you Android 4.4.4 KitKat and also fixes the battery percentage problem that is affecting most Atrix 4g users. check out his Development Thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/atrix-4g/development/rom-cm-11-android-4-4-4-atrix-bigpart-t2847281
However, after flashing his ROM, most of you will get a "Setup Wizard has stopped" problem. Here's the fix I found:
1)On the screen that says "Choose language:" choose your language
2)On the screen that says"Insert sim card", you will find that when you press "next" or "skip", the setup wizard will stop. At that point, swipe down the status bar.
3)Touch the date at the top left corner of the status bar
4)It will then ask you to sign in to your Google account and WiFi.
5)After you do all that, you will be taken back to the calender screen.
6)Triple click fast on the back button or home button.
7)You will be taken back to the language selection screen.
8)Choose language
9)Now you will find that when you press skip on the "Insert sim card screen, it won't force close anymore.
10)Sign in to WiFi again, and you will then successfully finish the setup and can start using your phone.
The second problem, is that your phone most likely will not detect the sim card. Here's how to fix:
1)Go to settings
2)Turn on then off the mobile network.(MUST!)
3)Power off your phone, do not take sim card out.
4)Power your phone back on.
5)Your phone should now detect the sim card.
[EDIT]:New problems and fixes:
This problem is very rare and will probably not happen to your problem at all, but just in case, here's how:
After flashing ANY new ROM, some of you will probably get a black screen instead of the boot animation. DO NOT WORRY, you're phone is NOT bricked, it's just that the boot animation will work randomly sometimes and sometimes not. Just power on your phone and wait until the navigation bar buttons at the bottom of the phone light up, then you will know that the phone has finished booting up, and then simply just press the power button to open the screen.
AGAIN, this will most likely never happen to your phone, so far, I think I was the only one experiencing this problem.
Another problem that came up: Google Now voice search in the Google now launcher doesn't work. This should fix the problem:
1)Download the Google Now lib from this link (thanks to XDA Developer Jesco): http://d-h.st/EH1
2)Go to file manager and move it into /system/libs.
3)Now the Google Now voice search should work.
Ask any questions that you have and I will be happy to help you ASAP.

idk, maybe if you learned how to search for youtube within Z's CM11 thread, you might have been able to find a link on page 35. But its ok, you're just like a lot of users who don't know how to use that simple feature known as a search bar.

I'm not one of those people you described, I searched on that thread but I didn't see because I was looking for Z's posts about YouTube problem. But thank you for information.
I downloaded that link, tried to install but I can't install it, It says "App not installed". How can I fix that?
I fixed the problem by renaming YouTube.apk in system/app folder and installing the new one. But there should be another, simple solution?
PS: Another question about that YouTube situation; the link that guy posted on CM11 thread is 5.2.27th version of YouTube, and I looked at "About" section of YouTube on my phone it says I installed 5.1.1.5 which is older. Why don't our phones update YouTube to latest version? Is this about the compatibility thing? Should we always follow the updates on somewhere else?
youtube
This might give some insight. My youtube has been working however ive never installed google play services even once, there may be a chance that gapps is causing the problem but i cant say for sure

could you confirm with this rom and last kernel that fonction bellow work fine (and without hang or problem when using it) :

Hi
My phone seems to be extremely sluggish when doing common tasks like opening or closing apps, opening app drawer, etc.
Also, any games I play on my phone seem to freeze for 0.5-3 seconds on touch input.
Is this a problem with my phone, or this ROM, or all CM ROMs on Atrix?

Is it only me or anyone else got problem when sending SMS? My Atrix on Z's KK is working great except the mentioned issue. I can receive SMS properly but could not send any SMS out.
Any helps would be appreciate!!!
Thanks.

Hi
My phone seems to be extremely sluggish when doing common tasks like opening or closing apps, opening app drawer, etc.
Also, any games I play on my phone seem to freeze for 0.5-3 seconds on touch input.
Is this a problem with my phone, or this ROM, or all CM ROMs on Atrix?

Have you tried a different CPU governor? Or have you even unlocked the performance menu? There are some tweaks that you could apply and maybe you're missing them.
[Solved]
Hey guys, first of all, thank you Z and P! my atrix is now revived and I can enjoy it once more! what a great job. So far, really stable (although the screen don't light up until de end of some calls). Battery is doing great!
After some reasearch I found out I should be using the hporch32 recovery. Turns out I also needed to flash the hporch32 boot with "fastboot flash boot boot_olympus_kitkat_bigpart_hporch32_finalv2". I know it was silly, but the guides don't really cover this situation....
Anyways, thank you very much for this gift! Hope this helps other noobs!

After the New Update Exynos Model (BUGS)

Hello Guys,
I am from India, I got the latest update attached screenshot.
I am facing few issues:-
The phone has become laggy in some departments such as:
1. The fingerprint mark stays on the screen after the screen unlocks.
2. Even after pressing the power button screen doesn't lock. The screen does black out but when I double tab on the screen it directly takes me to the home screen without showing the lockscree first. I am not using Google trusted location or devices to unlock without taking my fingerprint or face recognition.
3. When I try to dial a number it doesn't call at a single go, after pressing multiple times it calls the person whom I am trying to call. It looks very choppy as if the system responding to my commands little later.
4. Whenever I am trying to take the screenshot it doesn't take at a single go, after pressing multiple times the system recognises I am trying to take the screenshot and respond little later.
All the apps are working fine without any lags but the above said things are bothering me a lot.
I hope someone from XDA can assist me with this.
P.S.: I have tried to clear the cache from the boot screen. Also did a test on graphics from the same menu.

Thanks for your reply! I hope somebody facing similar problems has overcome and provide suggestions.
But Sammobile blog has also confirmed these issues.
II havent faced any of these issues post update.
Did you try doing a factory reset? If not, try the same if its not too much of an issue for you.
I have the same but I updated today over mobile data.
Came home and it started to behave like described above.
So I figured it is something with the updated WiFi drivers.
Switched off Wi-Fi and all seems fine now.

No I didn't do factory reset as I have checked from other forums that factory reset is not helping, the new update is broken.

Yes this trick is working.

Also one more question I don't know if it's my phone or everyone is facing this issue. Whenever I switch on VoLTE calls (Screenshot Attached) my phone temperature increases and battery drains.

So, you're saying only the ppl that took the OTA are facing the issues? In that case i will probably try that then if the bug returns for me.
For now after switching WiFi On/Off for me it is gone.
Seen reports that plugging in the charger does the same.
Weird stuff indeed.
Also now i see a fellow Dutch, you by any change using Rabobank stuff (Wallet/App) with tripped KNOX and have no problems with it?

No, its possible that some users who do flash a rom with Odin could face some issues too but i personally don`t. I`am using the ABN bank app and i haven`t rooted for a long time now. I used to do it because of theming and getting updates/upgrades but nowadays i personaly don`t see a reason anymore to root anymore. So i can`t help you with your question.
I happened to flash "ASE5" build two ways :
1. First using ODIN 2 days back . Did a factory reset ,erased cache in recovery, reinstalled all apps & after setting them up:-
issues faced -> None.
2. Went back to previous "ASD5" build, downloaded the "ASE5 OTA" update and installed. Did a factory reset, erased cache in recovery, reinstalled all apps & after setting them up:-
issues faced so far -> None.
*One glitch I'm noticing from the beginning with "ASE5" :
When I click on my apps & games(playstore app>drop down menu on the left), it freezes for a split second while it takes into the main page. With all my effort, I could not fix it. (App cache cleaning only temporarily fixes this).

A split second delay bothers you? What apps are running in the background? Do you have the FaceBook app installed? How did you set your animations?

No it does not "bother"but is a step back in smoothness if that counts. It's a "difference" that I noticed since I was testing both builds back and forth for a comparison. Rest be assured that it's not related to apps installed and animations set.

I have my animations set to 1,0 and i don`t have a delay, on 0,5 however there is a slight delay.

Erase playstore cache and you won't even notice it for a while only to re-appear after sometime.
"Less noticiable" and "very much noticiable" in my usage in 1x & .5x respectively. In ASD5 build, this transition slips like a soap.
