Hi everybody,
I've got a rooted Defy running under Jelly Bean with the last cm10 by Quarx. I just noticed that since a few version of Quarx ROM, i've got a bug when a run the panorama mode. Just launch the capture of the panorama and after about 60° the phone finish the capture (so far from finishing the all capture) and process the results... have anyone the same issue ? What should I do ?
Thank you in advance!

Hi !
I have a Defy for more than a year now and I finally decided to flash it. So now, i'm using it with miui rom (2.3.7a).
But since i've flashed it, i have some problems with the camera. I can't take picture in "macro", when i'm too close from the things i want to take in picture, the image is fuzzy. The camera don't focus anymore, it's very annoying because i take a lot of picture wit my phone..
Is someone here who has already had this problem? can i fix it and how?
Thanks for your help and excuse me for my bad english, i'm french ^^
I have the same problem with this update, but my camera is locked in macro mode.
I have tried android 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, CM7, and now i'm using MIUI but the camera is almost useles...
Hi !
I see that i'm not alone with my camera problem. ^^
I tried to change my rom this week end, I installed cm7 but sadly, the problem is still here, and nobody seems to know how to solve it. Could we install an other "camera application" or something like that, could it solve the problem or do you tqink it will be the same?
thank you!
My A500 gets really bad color "noise" in preview and photos when using the back camera. The noise goes away in video mode.
This is only an issue in ICS (tested with all the latest stock images). In HC the camera works perfectly.
Does anyone else have this issue, or has a fix for it? Ideas?

Hi! I had this issue with the OTA update.
I have sent this video to youtube and after some weeks trying a solution, one of them finally work.
I had to do the update by sdcard again. Now my camera works fine.
ICS OTA camera issue
I have this problem too after taking the ICS OTA update. odd that the video/camera seems to work fine and the camera has lines running horizontally through preview. Don't remember this issue with HC. Anybody have a handle on the solution here?
While checking the camera I noticed a few symptoms:
[-](Taking photos at night/low light): with/without flash sometimes the photo saved with 1pixel white line (sometimes 2 pixels), the line is random and change to each photo - at the top starting left / left starting buttom (depend on which way you take the picture), here is a sample of picture with this line (circled) at the buttom.
I've found it happens sometimes while taking picture in low light/dark/night, have no idea why is that and what the reason of this.
[-]Another thing while taking picture at low light/dark background with flash: dosn't matter how you focus (auto focus/manual-touching the screen/long press on the button) seems like you should take a few photos of the same image to get a 'satisfactory' picture - I took few pictures on the same place and got some too 'flashy' photo, some too darky (seems like the flash was too fast) and some was what I've expected (OK), at the dark pictures seems the +2 exposure didn't help (didn't notice any difference between 0 to +2, but there is a difference between -2 to 0) -> seems you getting different photos on same shot image and must take few shots to get what you expect to get.
[-]The picture that seems to save after taking a shot sometimes looks different then what its realy saved, for example you taking a picture with flash - its looks like its saving a too lighty/flashy-full flash picture but when you open the gallery you see the picture is fine.
[-]HDR mode: sometimes when its getting focus (manualy or automatically) its not possible to change the focus and any attemp to manual focus (while touching on places on the screen) is do nothing and seems its stuck on the last focus.
[-]Video: sometimes seems its stuck on focus - after focusing on macro/closer image and taking time (if so) to release the focus to infinity, if it dosn't release the only way to fix it is to renter the camera app and record video again.
[-]At day light / regular conditions - great and sharp photos but seems its more grainy then other cameras, especially photos with sky (the sky).
Overall its a great camera, all the above are not something that should disturb someone, I didn't forgot its 'just' a smartphone camera, you can always get better results using 'SnapSeed' app
Does anyone else notice these (or some of these) symptoms and have any knowledge how to get it better or solutions or maybe insights about these symptoms? (the using of camera) would like to get some information...
Anyway - do you recommand other Camera applications? I tried Focal - seems its still have a lil bugs, FV-5 (on my S2) ...
Thanks!
Today I've notice a bug [seems like a real one this time]:
When took a photos: low light + flash (macro focus if its matter), while I took few pictures one after another the camera app got stuck and reboot the device.
I've tried it without flash and didn't got reboot, then its happens again while I've checked at the same condition (low light and flash on).
Also notice that none of these photos (that freeze the app and reboot my device) are saved correctly seems like its 'break' pictures that didn't saved well...
Anyway after I manualy reboot the device and tried it again it wasn't crash/freeze/reboot device.
Just mention that I'm using the stock camera app at stock rom 4.2.2 without root or anything...also my device was on for few days (without any reboot).
Does anyone have any idea about this bug or other symptoms that I had mention at the 1st post?

I have the same problem as you are describing. I have reproduce it on stock 4.3, cm 10.1.3 and cm 10.2.
I just reproduced it after I took like 100 photos. The Phone just rebooted after a short hang.
Maybe this is a hardware fault on some devices. When did you bought your Phone? Mine is the white one just a week old. Rev 11. If that says something.

Seems like the flash heat the cpu or something like that...happened again today (without purpose) after few focus with flash few photos with flas..at regular photo without flash (straight after) it got stuck and reboot the device.
Then I tried to get it again but now with Camera360 app, lots of focus flash,photos with flash,without....seems works fine.
Maybe a stock app problem, guess anyway its the flash (another guy got reboot after using flashlight app).
There is any app that I could determine the CPU temperature even after reboot/turn off (like GSAM graph or the built in Battery graph that show all day and not only when you turn on /reboot device and start a new one every time)?
Btw - the device is only month old (from play uk), my serial# start with 304k, whats yours?
Yesterday night I had this again, only 2 photos with flash, take a look at the gallery and got freeze then reboot.
The device was cold [also wifi was off this time, I didnt tought its something to do with it anyway just mention] so nothing about hot cpu...
It might be something with the stock app and/or stock gallery app [maybe the swipping thing from camera to gallery and vice versa], as I tried again camera360 with lots of flash, focus flash and lots of photos and seems it was fine.
Very weird.
What camera app do you guys recommands?
I think it's an issue with the AOSP camera app. My rev. 10 211k Nexus 4 does this sometimes when taking a picture with flash on. It hasn't done it with a flashlight app ever though. I haven't encountered this issue with Focal, but I don't like Focal much.

Yeah, seems like its something with the stock camera app... I really like the stock one, Focal is almost the same with some more options but it isn't stable yet.
I found camera360 doing great job but I like the stock-clean design more...
Anyway I hope the new KitKat version will fix it.
BTW - any reason/idea about the first symptom that i've mentioned in the first post? [the white 1pixel line], and about the stuck focus on HDR mode?

I've got a rev 11 White too, I've got a strange Issue, if I take a photo with the stock rom with flash on with and without touch to focus everything seems to be right; If I take a photo with a CM based ROM without touch to focus I obtain an almost black picture, could it be an hardware issue?
And one kiddish doubt , why we can't take 16:9 pics ? Any idea ? Or it is possible and am I missing something ?

I've notice it too, also with stock, I mentioned it as well - seems like we need to take few photos of the same thing to get and chooce the better result, I've found it sometimes the flash is too fast and its taking the photo just before the led turn off or before its turn on fully... something like that. but its on flash photos most of the time.
Try taking 10 shots of the same thing, you could notice a difference between some of the pictures. (BTW I think its happens with and without touch focus; it dosn't matter)

I guess some other camera app (3rd party) would have this option... anyway I'm still waiting for any recommand about a good camera application...
Hi,
Sometimes while taking a pic the stock camera would hang without even saving the pic to album.This generally happens when i open the camera from lockscreen. Another common error is "camera not available".
On encountering this , most ppl restart the phone. However, i have seen on all occasions, opening the multitasking pane and swiping the camera app away will fix this (atleast temporarily)
Hope this helps and u dont miss ur shots [emoji4]

I had this issue while on holidays... even clearing cache for Camera app did not fix it, then I restarted and discovered that fixed it.
It never froze to me and I use black Z1, C6903 and I have firends who have white Z1 and Z1 compact and their cameras freeze most of the times, but I use it or open it from anywhere and nothing.

I'm on stock phone 4.4.4 LB no Roms or moded stuff
I've noticed one thing - when I launch camera from lock screen and it freezes when I half-press camera button to focus, all you have to do is touch the icon with cameras (the one that allows you to switch to automatic/panorama/etc) and select Auto again. Camera works then with no issues.

@jontr : will try it out !!!
A minor update : the problem doesn't arise if i am in manual mode...i just switched from superior auto to manual mode after launching from lock screen....manual mode takes better pics in my opinion

can you tell me what rom are you using?
LB or UB?
i really wanna try using ur configuration
thanks in advance
last Nut's stock 4.4.4
LB
deodex
superuser mod (by xperia xposed)
..and the fix in the link
I installed 120fps e 4k mod too
I had the problem of the camera hang before to apply the fix
well unfortunately this fix did not work.
i have a xperia z1 c6906 LB.
i tested with ihackers ROM v5.1 the first day i was able to take like 300 pictures without any failure, next day after taking the 12th picture i get camera hang somehow i change between auto and manual and 'fix' for a moment so i decide reboot the cellphone, second day i take about 100 pictures only hang 2 times in auto. today i keep testing and when i taking the second pictures got camera hang u.u i tried to do the same trick changing from auto to manual but it only got worst i lost preview (black screen) from camera. :c.. i make a quick reboot but did not fix the camera preview so i did a full reboot and its working again...
i think i gonna get back to android 4.3 :/
it is really disappointed because both versions android 4.4.4 and 4.3 have bugs
maye its time to change phone and brand
remember, the reboot is required after you have installed the fix
The fix works fine for me. Thanks.
Guys I'll be now testing for a few days since I have this problem too.. I'm on UB, I have chocolatetrain mod installed (pretty nice but this issue hasn't been solved there too..), trinity kernel (dunno if that mathers hahah). I'll tell you more
Edit - ok totally not working here.. Camera still has its annoying problem
Thanx for ur excellent suggestions bros..but my phone is on stock rom and unrooted.....guess thrs nothing i can do abt it for completely getting rid of it

hi every one, i did a lil rom port, the slimbean 4.1.2 for L5 that i posted, and the rom is awesome if you like 4.1.2 roms. I use it for my every day phone.
But i ran in to a lil problem. The rom is fully working, and only has one bug.
Camcorder cant record video.
At first it freezes when you start recording.
but then i added
debug.camcorder.disablemeta=1
To build.prop and the camcorder started to record video but all videos had a green screen. Any ideas on how to fix this?
