Can you see it within the camera app?
Download sdrescan, your pics should show up after running that.
[APP] Quick-Fix for "Cannot Connect to Camera" error for Epinters CM10/CM10.1
I know this should go in Atrix development, but I am relatively new to the community and cannot post in the development section yet.
I have been frustrated by the camera connectivity issue that has been affecting Epinters CM10 ROM. Luckily, Epinter posted an easy solution to fix this without rebooting the device.. Looks like this works Epinters CM10.1 ROM based on comments in that thread (I have not tested it).
I decided that it would be a good idea to wrap this in a simple app that would allow a one-click fix!
This app requires root in order to kill the mediaserver process.
To Use:
1) Install
2) Open "Atrix Camera Fix"
3) Click "Run Fix!"
4) Grant Superuser permission
5) DONE!
If there is interest, I could create a one-click widget to do this as well.
Changelog:
Version 1.1:Added ability to kill the gallery/camera app (com.android.gallery3d)

Edit (Dec 11): Fixed typo. Thanks saldirai for letting me know!
Edit (Jan 1): Added changelog and updated apk
Edit (Mar 3): Seems to be compatible with Epinter's CM 10.1
Edit (Apr 12): Reports of working with CM 10.1/10.2 i9300 (International Galaxy S3) & CM11 sprint galaxy s3
This would have been a nice addition few months back, but I personally haven't run into this issue since the early CM10 builds. Maybe because I started using Camera FX, but camera always works and is never laggy like before. Still thanks for your work, I'm sure it will definitely help someone.

I still see this issue when using the stock camera, mostly after opening the camera multiple times in a relatively short period (~15 minutes) from the lock screen. I imagine that I can't be the only one seeing this. If this helps just one person, i'm happy!
Haven't used the stock camera in a long while, I remember it being annoying to restart. I'm sure there are going to be people who will enjoy this.
Try camera360 from the play store. It's free and has lots of options. It doesn't crash either...

I was using Camera 360, with Epinters CM10, but after the last update of camera 360, it wouldn't connect yesterday when I tried using it.

What version of Epinters ROM are you running?
Please ensure that you have granted Superuser permission?
My solution is to use tasker to run the shell command: kill -9 `pidof mediaserver`
On every screen wake. So every time I turn screen off and back on the cam is good to go.

My app does exactly that and adds the ability to kill Gallery, as it sometimes hangs when the camera stops working. Essentially the same solution with different implementation
Yeah I was pretty sure it did. I just wanted something a little more silent and automated. Useful regardless. Hopefully the new kernel devs will fix the problem with cameras entirely.
Note: although on the new alpha kernel the cam always connected for me, I still had problems where I would get "static" artifacts on the bottom of images. Running this fix solves that issue as well.

Works on me i9300 cyanogen mod 10.1. Thanksssss
Yeahhhhhh:highfive:
I read about your app once a while ago and then I wasn't able to find your thread and today I finally did.
You should make this app more popular since it helps a lot. I'm running an international S3 with CM10.2 and cause of the lack of source codes by Samsung this app is more than welcome on my device.
Thank you again!
It works!!
I found out that this also works for the camera problem on CM11 sprint galaxy s3

Have you bothered to read the thread?
Iif so, habe you tried the workaround provided?
Also which rom and version do you have?
Which kernel?
Not to mention the fact you revived an old thread, which may get you reported...

I come from a Galaxy S and every time I ser the sh*t of camera app is on AOSP... Dotes anyone know a port from other phone or a better camera app.
Please dont spam saying that we have the best camera app.

AOSP are the only ones that work with little flaws. Try searching for camera apps here but most of them have a lot of extra features which we might not find useful.

Download one of the many camera apps from the play store, for instance Camera Zoom FX is popular

Seems to me you're looking for Samsung's signature slightly-exaggerated-color-depth-and-out-of-control-shadow thing, which is pretty common in people coming from a Galaxy phone. I'd recommend Vignette on GPlay; that app will get you the picture quality you're looking for.
Stock camera is solid if you ask me and I take high-end photographs for a living, haha--no fluff no nonsense, it's all in the know-how etc

I have decided to make this into a bit more than just a screen recording tool. I have added some backup features as well as a recording option for default settings or custom ones. I have decided to make a thread over in development since it's now a utility.

This thread can now be locked since this has been moved.
Bump? I got a couple things added in. May do another one or two before posting a new version.

There are a couple of apps on the play store that can be used.

You can press and hold VOLUME DOWN + POWER to take screen shot on android 4.3 (dunno if works for 4.4 later)

It does, but that wasn't what he was asking. He was inquiring about recording the screen, not taking a picture of it.

Thank you.
Camera app itself works fine. But it lags too much and I can't make any videos. I downloaded snapchat qnd tried it out, but the camera immediately stops working and I can't take pictures. I don't know where to download any camera fixes. I'm using cm9.
Any help here is welcome.
Thanks
PS: I think, that the problem is caused by the custom ROM I've installed.
