[HELP] Camera / 3rd party apps problem - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hello,
I got GT-I9000 on 2.2.1 / J9000XXJVE / Dark_Core_1.0 running Darky's v9.5.XWJS8 (Voodoo 6 kernel), Ex4 lagfix active.
My problem is that non of the 3rd party camera apps, like Camera360, Vignette etc are working. When I start the apps they ether FC, or show me info about the camera driver problem (screens attached). Stock camera apk is working flawless, and no problem with it at all. If someone be so kind, and help me find a solution. I really don't want to flash software again :/

I would also suggest going into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications and clearing the data for every application you are having trouble with.
If that doesn't help, perhaps you should reflash your kernel or try a new kernel to see if that solves the driver initialization issue.

Thank you for reply. Unfortunately changing kernel didn't helped. I switch to speedmod, and the same problem occurs. Think I'm gonna flash whole rom later today. The funny thing is that only camera-based apps are not working. Oh well

did you delete system email.apk before? had a similar problem with barcoo once and solved it by reinstalling the original mail.apk. have read it several times that this seems to cause force closes in third party camera apps in some way

Return back Email.apk, if you removed it.

Thank You all. That was the problem in 99%. I've remove the email apk, but didn't have the chance to restore it manually, I've just reinstalled the rom.

[Q] Installed CM7 and it's working...a few questions

I am up and running, so I think I did everything right!
However...
Angry Birds won't open. I've installed from Market, from backup, uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted...any other ideas?
Facebook app is glitchy.
My Nook app is force closing when I try to open a book...I'm thinking maybe I did something wrong...
Is there a way to remove the phone related apps and references?
I do miss the BN Library Shelves...I think I'll get over that though...or attempt a dual-boot.
Overall, it is so different than what I'm used to that it's a bit intimidating...but I'm sticking with it for a while due to all the over-the-top positive reviews here!
Nook app update...I had downloaded a book and it was in the notification list that it had finished...cleared it and the app is working now.

I know that Facebook version 1.5.3 had bugs that caused force closes on MANY devices. They released 1.5.4 last night to correct these issues, but I have not tested the new version myself. Others have said the app works great now. I downgraded to 1.5.2 which works fine, but I will try 1.5.4 later tonight.
Unfortunately I don't know about the other questions you had so hopefully someone else can help you there
Im no expert, but have you fixed permissions in rom manager? thats been known to stop force closes
I tried to fix permissions, but it says I don't have permission to do so...something's not quite right.
Yes, 1.5.3 caused problems for many. So far 1.5.4 works for me without any problems on my Droid X and Nook Color.

How are you showing phone references? You mean the apps?
If you're talking apps, get root explorer, nav. to system/app/
mount r/w, then add the suffix .bak too app phone related apps (doing phone.apk LAST). It doesn't do anything, but helps some people sleep at night.
mms.apk
telephoneprovider?.apk
phone.apk (will cause force closes...just hard shut down and reboot)
Haven't run into any apps that need these (dropbox used to), but good to keep around.
Try moving angry birds from sd card to "phone" if that is where it is located.

Hmmmm... Strange. Have you tried to boot into clockwork and fix permissions there?
Just want to make sure-- you did format your data & cache partition as ext4 right?
I'm not sure about the ext4...is that something different than just formatting through CWM.
Angry Birds is installed on 'phone' and not the SD card.
I did figure out how to remove phone apps, thanks!
We have multiple nooks so I tried Phiremod's on a different one and really liked it. I ended up reflashing this nook to Phiremod and am so far, really pleased...angry birds still won't load, but I guess we can live without it!
power button and home button problem
I just installed the latest cm7.0.2 build, and I found that my home button does not work...
also, the power button only has reboot and poweroff selections, the other selections in cm7.0.0 were lost...
Anyone saw this problem?
I tried to set the home button settings in ADWLauncher->General Behavior->Home button binding, but it does not work...
anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks

I don't have any of those problems. I just flashed 7.0.2 Stable build too.
Did you wipe the Dalvik Cache?
Just a thought.

If Rom Manager doesn't allow you fix permissions, open superuser and make sure it's allowed superuser access.

Market not working on JVH

It opens fine, I can search for apps, it shows even if I purchased the app, but I cannot install them, or even see my apps, get a black screen and then force close...
I have Ramad deodexed JVH, no kernel, no tweaks...
Stock JVH here, no issues as you describe. Market works without any flaws..
^ Same with me stock JVH no problems, perhaps its an issue with Ramad's version? Not saying it is but send him a message or check his thread to see if others are having the same issue
Easy way to find out is to just reflash the stock ROM, see if you have the same issue
Have you checked your IMEI? I've read somewhere here on the forum (will provide a link as soon as I find it) that IMEI corruption can cause some market problems
nedooo said:
Ok try following, need root explorer or super manager(free).
Go to System/app and delete market updater apk.
Go back and uninstall Market(this will only uninstall update not actual Market since it's in System.
Maybe this will work since I had issues with updated Market.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Did that, now I cannot even start Market...
I am not worst than before...
I will re- install tonite with different CSC, OXAJVK...
IMEI is there, same as before...
Maybe I deleted one system app too many. I will test before deleting apps this time...
No prob for me installing from market on Ramad deodexed jvh.
I am having that problem market shows programs but I can't install them or update..also youtube doesn't play videos. My friend has the same problem with his htc tatoo, and he called customer support and they told him that there are some problems between google and youtube and some networks... But, everything works when on wifi..
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I installed Samsung JVH and market still didnt work, had to copy app to the phone and install, now works...

[Q] Swiss cheese ee03 Camera

Has anybody with this rom flashed had any troubles with the camera fc'ing when trying to take a picture? For the longest time now whenever i try to take a picture it would fc and tell me the process com.sec.android.app.camera has stopped unexpectedly. Could someone with a working camera send me their apk from the /system/app folder to test if that would fix my issue?

go under the camera settings and under the wrench icon tab their is an option on page 2 i think to update camera firmware... select it... then select check firmware then select update... then run the samsung apps store app then it should say if their is an update to the camera. if shut down phone and turn back on and rerun the samsung app store...
i tried that already, downloaded the samsung app and re-ran it, says error service unavailable (error code 4002) when it searches for the firmwarer update edit: tried fixing permissions under cwm and would no-ciq play any role in not being able to get the update?

i would go into clock works mod and then reset the phone and do under advanced i think and clear delvik cache. I would also not use a program like Titanium Backup as you could be restoreing files that are causing the issue. The only restore i do is with my backup and text messages only. I then let the market place update all programs then after that is done I then install from the market my programs... I also recommend that you delete everything on the sd card other then your music and dcmia folder (camera saved pics).... then reset the device.... and then after reflashing then rom then do the no icq then do the fm radio gtalk thing then turn it off and use odin to flash the modem...
i used the ee03 tar to flash the rom to my phone so everything was already done including the modem. i tried clearing the cache and fixing permissions with no luck. ill give resetting the phone a try and see how well that will work for me. also before doing that, do you think you could send me a copy of your camera apk from the system app folder to see if that would work for me?
what you suggested isnt working :-\. i did factory reset, cache and dalvik 3x and and tried doing the firmware update and still no luck. i also formatted the sd card and removed all the extra stuff off of it

[PROBLEM] 3rd Party Camera Apps Didn't Work!

Ok, it's weird. I'm on Froyo JSD stock and also tried out other 2.2.1 ROM like JS8. Gingerbread ROMs didn't have this problem.
Third party camera apps like CamTranslator, Mobile Hidden Camera, Barcode Scanner, or any apps using camera gave me error accessing camera. When I opened the camera app itself, it works fine, no error whatsoever.
At first, I just solved it with keeping Daily Briefing and Email autostart because I found that these two apps trigger the problem. But now it's back even I defrosted the two apps and keep them running. Weird, isn't it? What's the problem? Any idea. Already installed fresh JSD and JS8, the same problem occured, Daily Briefing and Email must keep running at startup.
Anyone??

Try another ROM?
Already tried all Froyos. I don't want Gingerbread.
Have the same problem. You have to restore stock e-mail client and wipe this app data - reboot, and should solve the problem.
If you really have removed the stock email app (did not read that anywhere and would not make sense keeping it in autostart, would it?) you could use this libcamera.so (replacing libcamera.so only is enough, be sure to make a backup copy) - Im using it with JSD and it works fine.
Asked what has been done to this lib some days ago but no answer yet.
Just posting in case it might be useful but does not seem to be a solution if you are using a complete stock rom...

Instagram on HD2 problem

I installed Instagram on my Tmous HD2 running Hyperdroid and it always hangs at processing when editting a picture, happened on both 5.8 and 6.0 version. Just want to know if anyone out there has the same problem like me and of course, a solution
I have not this problems with Inatsgram.
i tried instagram for a few days with my Hyperdroid 6.0.0 and had no problems. to tell you the truth i didnt like it that much..there are better similar apps out there.
you can try to uninstall instagram, clear your market history and cache and then install it again. do you have any other app-related problems? maybe you are low on memory, check your memory and check where you have instagram - internal memory or sdcard? sometimes when you move apps to the sdcard they have problems.
maybe try this?

Well I finally figured it out, it's a kernel problem. I experienced this issue on fikret and dorimanx kernel, but not on seader"s one. Thanks for your support, thread closed
