Camera seems to crash all the time when attempting to record a video. It'll just freeze and then when I attempt to reload it I get "unable to connect to camera"
Tried different firmware and multiple Roms.
Any suggestions or anyone else have this issue?

I had that issue on my Skyrocket. I believe its a hardware issue. It happened, regardless of the camera app or rom. The sad thing its, it was random. I thought it was my batter as I used a generic batter and the phone would just shut off when using the camera.
I would also shut it down manually when this would happen, and it many times wouldn't boot up without a restore. Thank goodness I had backups in recovery.
Late reply. It never once did it on stock now its constant anytime I go to record a video.

Did ya try copying the camera apk from root explorer.... I do not have this as I am not rooted on my MK2 firmware as 1 is not available, hence I have no issues that I can think of yet.

It's not just the stock camera. It's any camera app. :/

This just started happening the other day. Randomly during the day it will not allow me to adjust the volume ( ie from vibrate to loud). The status bar moves when i move them but it doesn't actually do anything. Also when this starts happening, voice input no longer works. I cant do voice text voice searches etc etc.
I have to shut it down and restart it, then everything will work again. But it only lasts for a few hours and then i have to do it again.
I am stock and not rooted.
Thoughts?
It doesn't happen to me on my modded and tweaked Slim Bean Beta2. I would recommend doing a factory reset and see if that fixes your problem.

Maybe you have apps installed that control or manage audio

Could i use this backup utility found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36499906
factory reset my phone and then install that backup or would that defeat the purpose of resetting it.
I am not a pro at this obviously, i just do not want to lose all my apps and settings i have. Or would they just reinstall once i linked the phone back to my google account?

I did have one, but i uninstalled it and still having the same issues.
I'm having the same issue, stock ROM rooted with franco kernel.
Not only that, but the volume gets very low almost inaudible and I end up having to reboot the phone.
I don't have any audio apps installed, noticed this while watching YouTube.
Thus far have not found a solution

now it is not happening anymore and hasn't happened since Saturday.
Weird.
Will repost later if it starts acting up again.
I have the GT-I9500. I am getting random reboots when I start using the camera and also it froze a couple of times spontaneously.

Rebooting when opeining the camera is a common bug. But random freezing and reboots is not a bug.
For the first issue, I will wait for 1 software update from Samsung to fix the camera, but for the latter I would highly recommend exchanging your phone.

Make sure your kernel and software match each other, e.g. you are not running an older kernel than you should be, for example MDE kernel with MDK software, mixing can cause these type of issues.
My Nexus 4 just started randomly started crashing after the 4.3 update ... Anyone having the same issue?? Please help...
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Hmm. the Nexus 4 I'm using doesn't have that issue. Sounds like you have an app incompatibility with Android 4.3. I would suggest combing your apps, or doing a factory reset.

yups even i found the issue of random crash in 4.3 (stock update, no root, no unlocked bootloader)
It crashed while using Skype and Gallery.
Chrome randomly crashed on a sandboxed_process:0 with crash type Native Crash.

In three days I've had the phone reboot three times, all within the first hour after unplugging it. Twice it rebooted while I wasn't using it and once while sending an email. I'm completely stock and did a factory reset yesterday.

The exact same thing happened as well.. How did the factory reset affect the performance?
Thanks

I fixed my snapchat issue by clearing my snapchat data and cache and uninstalling and reinstalling the app!

Hey guys. I hate when I'm not able to figure things out on my own, but this one has me beat.
I recently discovered that my auto rotation has stopped working, I was on the latest AEONFLEX, and I've tried switching to CM11, and also a fresh install, with a system wipe, of AEONFLEX.
It was completely random when it sopped working, and there hasn't been any drops or anything like that, I haven't even had a case on the phone.
I hope someone has had this issue before, because I DEFINITELY do not want to have to go through LG to get it repaired if it were something internal.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Are you on Verizon?
Does tilting work in games?
Good question. I'm actually on ATT, and I'll check the games in a minute.
EDIT: no, no tilting in angry birds GO.
That's not good

Did you flash back to stock to see if it still persist?

Try flash different mode.

I hadn't tried stock yet, but flashing a new modem worked. Like what even? How can a modem effect a sensor like that? I had flashed the kit kat modem and apparently that messed it up.
Its fixed now though. Thanks a ton!!! I thought I was going to be sending this thing to LG

Looks like you fixed it but sometimes its a new launcher so check settings
Nice!
Glad you were able to save your phone
Might have been just a problem of cache or something that was cleaned when you flashed the modem!
Yet it worked, so problem "solved" haha

Actually this happened to me too. I created a flashable zip to flash the new kit kat modem on my CM11 install. I cleared dalvik and cache, flashed the modem, rebooted and there is no auto rotate. Flashed the old modem back and auto rotate worked?? I don't get how flashing the modem disables auto rotate.

Modem might carry gyro code.
I had this happen and my fix was disabling auto rotate, running the motion sensor calibration on a flat surface and then re-enabling auto rotate again. Haven't had any issue since.

For some reason I don't have the option to calibrate the motion sensor on CM11?
Any other apps i can try to calibrate the sensor?
An about a month ago switched to 7.1.2 from 6.0.1.
Stock rooted version. The phone is one and a half years old.
Since then I'm having random freezes that only pressing the power button and reboot will help.
I can't figure out what causes these freezes.
Anybody else having this ?

How did you update to 7.1.2 was it stock image ?
Yes. Stock image

Try a factory reset see if that helps really hard to say. Are you using substratum try removing overlays. If using custom kernel resore to stock. If it was me I would completely wipe my phone including internal. Then flash a fresh factory image to rule out any software related issues. Just make sure you back up all your pics etc.
I'm using stock kernel. The freezes are random. Can't figure out what triggers them.
The freeze can be while the phone connected to charger, lying on a table or when I on Facebook or something else...

There apps that you can get that will show you logs of what's going on in the background. Catlog or syslog are ones that I know of. They can be hard to understand but might give you some clues to what's going on. After the phone does it thing quickly check the log and see if any errors from apps and such that stand out.
