Camcorder crashes when I press record - Atrix 4G General

When I press record my camcorder app crashes and sends me back to my home screen. This phone has never been rooted, pseudoROM'd or anything like that, and It was happening both before and after the OTA update.
Any ideas? I can take pictures fine D:

Do you have the imo.im app installed? I had that issue with my camcorder crashing (not loading) when I have imo.im running Had to uninstall it and find another messaging app *sigh*

Omg thank you! That was the problem

I'm having the same issue, but don't have IMO.IM installed. So, I started deleting (what I thought) might be related apps to no avail. So far I've deleted the following apps and rebooted:
Handcent
iMediaShare
Everything else seems to work fine. Could this be SD card related? Any other apps or ideas? THANKS to anyone who can help resolve this very annoying issue!

Have you frozen any apps in TiBu ? Happened to me once when I had frozen apps (I think mediagallery) and it would crash if I tried to view the file

Thanks for the tip but I didn't freeze any apps as far as I know. I changed camcorder settings to save internally instead of to card and it magically works -- gonna have to try exchanging my Lexmark 32 GB class 10 card.

Class 10 is known to have issues in the atrix

When opening an app, the app only displays on the screen for a fraction of a second.

Occasionally, when opening an app, the app only displays on the screen for a fraction of a second, then disappears. It just kinda blinks on then off...
I can't figure out what is causing it to do this. It has happened to me with K-9, Facebook, Twitter, Maps...pretty much any app. Sometimes I try to open facebook, and it won't open, but twitter will....Some of the time you can get the program to open if you go home, then open and close the app drawer.....
Anyone else with a similar problem? I have reset the phone twice and it is still doing this...Other than this occasional problem, I love the Vibrant!
Do you have an app killer or startup controller? Mine did the same thing, and I quickly realized I was killing a service that the apps I was launching depended on.

^ pretty much exactly what I was going to post. What have you installed on your phone like this?
Mine has done this a few times, usually after an app force closes. For 30 seconds or so after if I try to reopen that app it will just shut off again, then after a bit, it's fine.
It's happened with the web browser more than once, and a couple other apps.
I get the same exact problem with no real reason. Whenever it happens I just go into the settings from the menu button. Settings opens fine and once I close it ever other app opens correctly again.

That's what I thought at first.. I wiped the phone and it did it even after when I had no task or app killers installed...

Yes, that seems to help mine too...
Did you erase unneeded apps? There is a list around here somewhere of apps that can be safely deleted, without violating dependencies. I have a stock unit with the lag, the blue tint, etc. . . But I never had this problem without the startup manager.

yes.. I took most of the bloatware off using root manager.
Startup auditor has a list of dependencies for each app that you have installed. Not much good for things that you have already deleted, but maybe the dev site can help? I know I saw a list somewhere of bloat that could be "safely deleted".

The only bloat I deleted was Telenav, so I doubt that's the cause of it.

I've noticed this as well. However, If you hold down your home key, after it does the weird flash, and select the app from the pop up menu, it will open. Weird.

I seriously doubt that this has anything to do with deleting the bloatware apk's...
I haven't removed anything and mine does this as well. Usually after an app freezes or force closes.

Apps widget missing after reboot

Hi there i wonder why my apps widget went missing every time i reboot my sgs? Is this a bug in froyo when u save it in sd card? Is there any solution for this?
Thanks!

i think you must let the media scanner complete then you get it back!!
Thanks for the reply. I did that a lot of times and i got nothing even the shortcuts in home screen went missing but the apps are still in applications list though.

Did you move the applications to the SD card? This happens to me, if the application was moved into SD card, it just disappear whenever I restart the phone.

No, no it's a problem or bug, is the way Move to SD works. Apps which have widgets can't be moved to SD

Missing icon picture in folder

Hey guys,
When I restart my phone, the pictures of my icons become the standard market icon picture and I realized that these applications that are affected are those that I have moved to sd card.
Is there any ways to solve this problem?

Hey bryant, I had the same problem and couldn't figure it out so installed folder organizer(there is a free version) it works pretty well.

Thanks for replying. I encountered the problem again and I change the scenes for my sense UI and the icons went back to the original icons already. This is a workaround but I do not want to keep changing my scene.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
I had a problem with my contact icons disappearing in the sms stock app. I removed my htc sense account and all is ok now. Htc sense is very buggy.

I think it's because you placed these app on storage card. All apps on my card have same issue. Don't worry they are still there. Reload your card to get icons back.

ive not had this problem but dropbox is missing an icon completely.
That's weird. How about the others? Any problems with this?
Do factory reset might fix the problem.
Happens to me as well, any app thats on the SD card doesn't load an icon, usually if you manually unmount and then remount the card in the settings it fixes them.
Or if you change your device Skin.
I think its because they don't register right away when the UI loads, the SD card usually takes 3-6 secs to actually mount itself when my phone switches on.
So I have to manually remount the sd card again when the phone is rebooted?

If you want the icons to show, yes.
Or change the skin/theme on the device, that loads them too

Why installed applications not shown??

I've installed applications on my atrix and those applicatons were there shown on my menu for sometime until now suddenly those apps are not shown on my menu! Why is that? Those apps are there in the installed apps catagory with a grey icon and a small sd card icon. Pls tell me how to fix this? This application is shown in the media area in the manage applications section.

More info please. Rooted? P-ROM? Which application/s?

If it's all apps that you installed to the SD card instead of internal storage, it might be that the SD card got unmounted. I get similar behavior sometimes after using USB mass storage mode...every once in a while it won't remount properly when I unplug USB and SD card apps will show installed but won't launch.
Reboot clears it up for me, but wouldn't be surprised if there's another way to fix.

For me, I see, all the sideloaded apps are not showing up in "My Apps" menu.
There are solutions given in "Android Market" discussions.

you can try them too! (but, they look like may or may not work kinds)

I had to reinstall some apps after I rooted with gingerbreak on my Atrix...
I've had that happen too, not rooted.
Kind of annoying.
I tend to see this problem with Angry Birds. It installs to /sdcard. Once the phone formated my /sdcard partition, probably after it thought it was corrupt.

[Q] Not able to rescan media

Hey guys,
I've been searching around, but I can't find a clearcut fix, so maybe someone here has some insight. Recently I started noticing that random pictures started dissapearing from my gallery, seemingly (but not 100% sure) after the kitkat update on my Note 3. Before I also saw some pics dissapear (a couple I downloaded) but I didn't put much thought into it.
Now, after the update, I was sarting to notice more pictures have dissapeared. The thing is, if I go into whatsapp, select a convo and click on media I actually see the pictures and all, but in the gallery in the "whatsapp images", and in "all images" album they are nowhere to be found. I tried for a solution on google, but to no avail except rescanning the media. Usually that would be taking the sd card out and put it back in to rescan the card, but it refuses. The weird thing is that every app in the store that deals with rescans imediatly Force closes when starting the scan. I mean all of them, and I installed about 10. I have no cfw's or roms running so I can't figure out what the issue is.
Obviously I tried resetting, rebooting and all the usual stuffs.
ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Dylan
Seems like you need a reflash of stock firmware.

Did it work out for you?
You see - I seem to have run into the exact same issue.
Running 4.4.2 stock rooted.
Reflashed with Mobile Odin
Injected Root, SU, and Mobile Odin
Wiped Dalvik-cache & user data.
Reinstalled everything.
Improvement: Zip, Zilch, Nada.
Still forced closure on media scanners :crying:
Help!! (sniffle).

Elo
Fixing permissions didn't help either.
