While playing with my phone (which I love by the way), I tried out the slow motion option in the video settings with 1/8 slowness selected. I was able to record, but when stopping the recording, the progress bar goes about a quarter of the way and freezes. After about 5 minutes, the camera app stops working, the file is corrupt and I have to reboot the phone to get the camera to work again. I even tried to record something for all of five seconds just to see if the file size/conversion had anything to do with it, but still got the same results. Anyone else have this issue? It's not a life-changing problem, but still want it to work regardless.

I have a problem with my IMate JASJAM. The camera app sometime behave weird and shows scrambled. After several reboots, it goes to normal. This has happened several times. I have tried hard reseting but so far no luck. The issues remains.
I am using the latest ROM version for IMATE JASJAM.
Any suggestions?
I have the T-Mobile varioII for only a few days.
The camera screen is displaying a line in the same position of the line just above the battery icon in the today screen. This seems to affect the use of the ok icon and button, in that it won't consistently save the settings. The line does disappear, but as soon as I use any buttons, it comes back.
Soft reset sometimes removes it until it reappears.
Do you have anything similar to this, or anyone comment please?
sorry, can't help there but here's my own camera problem:
After having to send back 3 tytns with screen alignment issues my 4th handset's screen works perfectly however on all 4 units the camera is crashing frequently, or sometimes just taking a blank, grey picture. I obviously want my camera set to best quality: 2m, superfine. When i take a pic where the light is good (mainly outside on a nice day) the tytn just switches to the today screen. If i try to access the camera app I get a "camera in use" error message, if i go to the running apps screen the camera app is not there to close, only solution is a soft reset, take a pic and it happens again.
The only workaround I have found is to set the camera to L, fine quality but i'm not happy with this - why have a 2mp camera that only works when it is dumbed down?
Surely i'm not the only one with this problem as all 4 sets had the same issue.
I'm loathe to send this one back in case the 5th set has the screen issue.
I faced the issue that my camera screen show scramble. And when I take the picture, the phone returns to the today screen, and when I tried to start the camera again, it gives me an error that the camera is already in use.
My problem of the camera having a line on the screen may not be the screen.
The line is appearing in the captured image. I didn't realise this until I rotated the image. So, it may be the camera/lens at fault.
I had the identical camera fault as described in the original post. Soft resets cleared the screen but the fault re-appeared after activating the camera. I had to pester the network into replacing my 1 mth old voda version. I have to admint the fault only started after I dropped the handset though.
lol well might as well add mine, my zoom doesnt work! Just will not shift from 1x
Schooleydoo, you know there is no zoom at 2 mp. It only works at lower resolutions and in increasing amounts the lower you set it..
Any solutions??
Hi,
Has any of you found the solution to the original problem? My phone's camera shows scrambled screen continuously and doesn't get back to normal.
Any ideas??

I have a scrambled screen too. It started when i was too low with memory, after 3rd warning phone turned off itself 3 times - it never happened before, some of the programms crashed for good, and camera shows camera menu but picture that camera sees is scrambled, so are the pictures taken. When I tried to take a video it showed that I am missing some codecs. After Flashing I can record videos and make pictures, but I get only this results...
:/ .... anybody have an idea?
I don't know what exactly happened... I flashed phone with the same WM6 and installed Webcamera plus v1.051, and TCPMP v 0.72 RC and camera still wasn't working, then suddenly it started to work a day after .. i don't know if it will help anybody, but.... i think that some codecs from those programs in some way overwrited phone codecs...but I am a new, so I may be wrong
I've noticed sometimes my Camera stops working - and shows a blank screen when I load it up, no matter which camera I choose (front or rear). Haven't quite worked out why it does it - as it appears to be very random!
I can confirm the 'bug' has remained through multiple hard resets - and appears to have something to do with savings photos to a Memory card.
Regardless, if the camera stops working and brings up a blank screen saying "Can not capture from Image Device" - it always seems to be fine after a reboot.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? If so - any particular conditions surrounding the issue, or has it been equally random for you?
ON a side note... Are there any imaging applications out there capable of attaining FULL, HIGH RESOLUTION video using the Ameo?
I can't seem to get any of the programs working, they all seem to throw up errors when trying to capture, or don't even start.
I like the idea of recording 640x480 video from the 3.0 Megapixel camera to the 8GB microdrive. MUCH fun to be had there!!
Hi Guys,
i tried to search in the forums but could'nt find the answer to that.
When I take a pic with my HD, first everyting is alright. When the shot is taken the picture shows and the the small windows-thing appears in the middle of the screen and does'nt leave anymore.
After a couple of seconds (sometimes never) it's gone, just like my taken picture. Actually I can't take any picture with my cam, that annoying!
Has someone the same problem. It happens with all resolutions and settings in the same way.
Thanks
Christian
Yes! Something very similar happened to me just last night. I was using the video camera function to record my son's wrestling match. I had taken a few recordings of other matches, and then on the 4th or 5th match (a new file for each one) the recording suddenly stopped after a few seconds. Then after that the camera application was very slow to respond and had a black screen. I tried turning the camera program off and on, and tried doing a soft-reset. Nothing worked.
Then of course my son's match started and I figured I'd try to hit record even though it was a black screen and just hope that it was recording anyways. After 10-20 seconds of the black screen it suddenly turned on and was recording.
And this morning it's working find again, although I haven't tried taking more videos to test it out.
I'm using the panora Black Pearl 1.4 ROM.
me too, me too. It seems that this issue happens when I start to have many things in my phone (both in terms of software installed and taken photos). Waiting for a good explanation and solution to overcome this problem. I also notice that the videos taken are now not able to play, since I always have to use Core Player
I has this same problem.
If you have Advanced config installed make sure that you have
Encode photos in portrait mode set to : No under camera settings
This is funny because default value is YES and that freezes camera
Thanks a lot for the hint.
works perfect. now I got my cam back ;o)
You guys are just amazing!!!!!!!!!
I was about to hard reset (thanks to winnerzero who sent me here).
Saved me a hard reset!!
brilliant...
Thanks a lot to Kohozga
Your hint just saved me from hard resetting my HD.
I have seen multiple problems posted about issues with the various browsers crashing while viewing flash video and then switching to full screen mode.
I have found that ICS+ browser is the most stable. Also, I found a way to make it work 100% of the time.
The problem seems to stem from the fact that even though I have desktop mode enabled and flash set to run as "always on" this is not the case.
When you start a video you still have to "activate" flash by pressing somewhere within the video screen (I press on the slide bar) or you get a black/blank screen after switching to full screen and the browser becomes unresponsive. I have done this and videos have worked 100% of the time.
Just now I tried to play a video and forgot to activate flash on the screen and the video crashed (black/blank screen plus unresponsive browser) and I had to force a stop of the browser in the application tab under the settings menu. I then reloaded the same video, pressed on the screen (got a green flash) and switched to full screen no problem. So it seems the issue is with the flash player and not necessarily the browsers, the rom/kernal or tablet (hardware) itself. Don't know if this is just an issue with our device on ICS or if the problem exists on other devices as well.
Curious.
just thought I'd share my experience/discovery? for other to try out.
I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem or possibly a solution for me. I have the h990ds and its stock with the latest update installed. when i launch the camera either from the icon on the home screen or by the shortcut by double pressing the volume down, it takes at least 2-3 seconds to open, sometimes more. i don't really experience this issue with any other apps (i say really because once in a while an app may take the same time to launch). Also, when actually snapping the photo, it often takes the same amount of time to actually capture, on auto and on manual mode. Finally, the viewfinder image is really, really choppy with a very low frame rate until i start shooting video, at which point it looks fine. i am hoping someone else can help out since i dont want to root or flash custom roms to get the performance i see others having on videos online
thanks much guys
Did you ever figure it out? Mine sometimes takes 5-10 seconds to load. Once it was over 30.
Try uninstall or force stop "One Drive:. It works for me.
yeah the cameras slow. if the screens off, it's bc of androids ****ty doze feature. it's such trash.
