I9300 omni-4.4.4-20140730-i9300-NIGHTLY - Camera app hangs - Omni Q&A

Hi,
I have Samsung Galaxy SIII i9300 with omni-4.4.4-20140730-i9300 NIGHTLY build:
When i switch off the screen after started google camera (or other camera app), the camera is hang.
In next camera launch, i get this message: Can't connect the Camera.
After reboot, the camera works again.
I noticed this bug in older 4.4.2 versions
Please help me.

i have same problem with i9300 too
camera app hangs everytime
my solution is waiting for new nightly rom and then camera will working again
but it will HANG again it is a loop LOL
ps.sorry for my noob English
ps2.can anyone tell me a solution (cry)

The same stills hapen to me...

It's unlikely to get fixed. Pretty much all Exynos4 devices except for N80xx are getting dropped due to lack of maintainers.
I9300 in particular has had no maintainer for 6+ months. Honestly we should have stopped nightlies for it ages ago.

same for 9305
i have that issue with every nightly. how come noone can fix that? i mean. what's the deal of having a nightly if u have no maintainers?!
are all nightlys automaticly created ?
please solve that problem. its really annoying. cant be such a big deal or?

Good question, that's why we should've shut them off months ago. We were just hoping someone else would step up.
And yes, they are automatically created.

Omnirom5 ?
Are they now working on Omnirom 5?
Or are there no supporters left for the i9305...
btw. my cam is somehow stable since a looong time. i got the version 2014 12 28 nightly.
another question: i still cant record on the frontcam 720p. i have the nexus camereanext app. the best ever!
i really dunno how you can work with other camera apps. all to slow, to set.

Vine for Android here! Bug on CM?

Hey guys,
I am the Android engineer responsible for the video playback and recording components on the Vine for Android app. We noticed that there is a bug on a rooted 4.2.2 ROM (mostly S2, prob CM related) that it did not implement one of the camera method (specifically, onPreviewFrame, the data returns null when using image buffering) that we are relying on to work properly. Just want to let you guys know what the problem is.

I'm on CM10.1 (4.2.2) on my Nexus S and I still have the "Initializing" problem after the update.
@op you do know about the open source camera s2 use ,you can look into that
Replicant guys made it
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Recording worked when I was on stock 4.1.2 rom, but it force closes upon recording when I'm on cm10.1. Is there an easy fix for this?

Vine crash
I'm on latest update of Vine.
It still crashes less than a second after recording. I keep on sending crash reports hoping they can fix it.
I am running X-treme JB rom v9 with Dorimanx kernal. Android 4.2.2.
Best ROM I've ever used. Everything else works great but I just want Vine to work!

new update
vine has updated.
they say its the biggest update yet for android and has new shooting options ansd camera options etc.
might be worth trying again with a 4.2.2 rom to see if it works.
i am sticking with neatrom for the min (4.1.2) as it works with instagram and vine. once both aps work with 4.2.2 aosp and aokp based roms i will go back. i miss halo and pie

Thanks for the info. Just updated and it still crashes. Unlike last time it would be half a second, now it's instant.
However! Using the front facing camera works! Progress?

i think its going to be a long wait. most aosp roms are based on CM. the problem is CM use a hacked rear camera with higher resolution. aps are created using normal android firmware so dont take into account the new hacked camera. unfortunately i think the makers of vine will see modified firmware user base as quite small so not bother to change their app and CM is unlikely to undo a better camera for the sake of 2 aps (same bug is in instagram video for the very same reason as vine)
neatrom works with them all as they are based on original samsung firmware but i prefer aosp roms but till the bugs for these 2 aps are sorted i'll have to stick to neatrom as 80% of what i do on my phone is instagram or vine related. oh well

I wish either Vine or CM and X-treme could come up with some kind of workaround.
I am missing a lot of moments that a standard photograph cannot capture and a video is too cumbersome.
I'm having to use my girlfriends iPhone when I have perfectly good Android hardware in my pocket!
By the time I have the iPhone in my hand and unlocked the precious 6 second moment is gone, FOR EVER.
Come on Vine! Can't you enable a compatibility mode or anything? :crying:
X-treme Rom v10 will be ready soon by the looks of things. Looking forward to it!
Does anyone know if this will fix the problem? (cannot currently write on all threads as I haven't enough posts)
@wzsddtc2
Nasty bug. Vine seems to be the only app on cm 10.2 that does not work..
with the latest update they outright claim your device is not supported. (It worked perfectly on Official 4.1.2 roms)
is this going to be fixed?

That's be cause we are probably the only app that uses that special method that Samsung broke.
The same bug happens on S4's front facing camera driver, but Samsung has provided a workaround for that (we post-process the images).
On Cyangenmod, the problem is they don't even pass back a bad frame, it just passes back nothing, so we can't apply any workarounds there.

That's not true. We saw the log from CM's bug tracker, it is entirely on their side and they just won't admit it.
Apps will request 640x480 preview size, but CM will report it succeeded but record at 720x480, which is a higher resolution.
We use onPreviewFrame() to get video frames and expect 640x480 frames, but CM will give frames at 720x480.
Because we give buffer frames at the smaller size, CM will treat them as invalid buffers and then just drop the frames.
Totally insane.
I'm using a t0ltetmo with the newest Carbon Nightly and Vine recording doesn't work.
Do you guys have a list of custom ROMs that is compatible with your app?
This is a bit annoying.

Did you give up ?

Yeah I gave up. I got an S4, running AOSB and everything is working well.
The S2 is a backup phone now.
ok so apparently no one fixed this issue.. i tried a bunch of cm based roms and different versions of android and ive found problems with video upload to instagram (upload bar just stuck at middle and wont go on), vine app wont work (it just tells me that im using custom rom and there's a problem with camera), upload videos to twitter also stuck.. so it seems to me that the problem is with CM kernel and video format.
still cant believe that no one addressed this issue over 2 years now, im stunned

(Q)Verizon Galaxy S4 Nightlies

I'm using a gs4 on the nightly ROMs. Few issues I've noticed. I can't get the IR to work. It freezes what ever app tries to send it a command. After the most recent Feb 22-23 update my phone has been running hot and draining battery like crazy. Has anyone else experienced this or found solutions? Other then that its great.

a friend of mine is having the same problem.
Update
I flashed the 2-24-14 Nightly last night, and that cleared up my recent issues, with the phone running hot, battery draining fast, and the camera not working. I also switched my Runtime from Dalvik to ART, I noticed an immediate difference, the phone seems much more snappier now. However still don't have a working IR emitter.
the latest nightly has battery issues too. It doesn't seem that this developer is very active in the XDA forums. Guess i will stop running omnirom.

Of the three jflte maintainers, one sold his device, one is MIA, and one was travelling for a few weeks.
jflte is probably one of the device families in worst shape right now.
Although it could be worse. Galaxy Superior (i9260) was brought up by someone, they got it merged in, and disappeared not long afterwards. If it hasn't been pulled from nightlies yet it will be soon.

Very annoying camera issue, please help!

Okay so my camera does this in lowlight and yes when I take a photo the lines will stay... what is wrong?
Bump. It is sad that this is the 4th time I post in this section and get 0 replies.
Anyways I discovered that when I go lower the megapixels to 12MP or anything else NON WIDE the lines disappears, but whenever I choose a wide mode MP the lines appear.
Edit: 5 days ago I didn't have this kind of problem at all. Please help.

no sir its one of the problems with this phone, some other folks have reported the exact same issue i believe its a hardware issue with note 4's camera sensor. Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/camera-shooting-lowlight-t3244104
i am afraid there is no way around it it was bothering me so i got rid of it (the next one was restarting randomly...and the next one had a broken gps....lol) samsung does not believe in quality i doubt if they even have a quality control department.
I'm having the same problem as yours
I went to samsung and they tried replacing the camera module but the problem remained, they said that I'm having a custom rom and it corrupted the "IC" of the camera, so it's a software problem as they say.
Is your phone rooted or running any no official rom?
See if you can update your camera firmware by going into the dialer and type *#34971539#
This is mine.
Edit:Update?? How?

Cyanogenmod 13 with OpenGApps - YouTube video 60 fps issue

I flashed CM 13 with OpenGApps micro on my GPad 7.0 some weeks ago. It runs fine, but it has a single irritating problem: The YouTube-App is unable to play 720p 60fps-videos. If I start one, the sound works "normal", but the image is "frozen". The same videos in 480p and all normal 720p-videos work fine. I really don't know if it's an issue of the OpenGApps-package, the YouTube-App or CM 13. Is anyone able to help me?
It's a known issue of CM13 on LG G PAD 7..

I hope so. This is the only important problem I'm facing with this Rom. There are shure some small performance issues here and there, but nothing that ruins my experience. The LG G Pad 7.0 deserves a perfect and save rom, after the disappointing 5.0 update.
Is this device (LG G Pad 7.0) able to playback 720p 60fps videos on stock roms on youtube and and player apps?

Exactly.. I flashed Stock KitKat just for these small issues.. Double tap to wake for example.. It works perfectly om CM12.1 (even better than stock KK) but doesn't work on CM13.. also in app video playback does have some issues (YouTube, Facebook...) in CM12.1.. So we don't have a perfect ROM for now.. But I am quite sure that the developers are not going to leave it like this
Kindly press thanks if I helped

Yes, of course.
I have a request to all GPad 7 fans: If you are NOT facing the YouTube-issue with any CM 13/GApps combination, please write it instantly in this thread. I test the actual Nightly every three to six days, but it could be possible, that I miss something.
Still no improvement... Has someone really reportet it on... what was the name of the CM bugtracker-website.... oh, I remember: JIRA? I just don't understand how to search for all known issues of a particular device, if it's even possible.

Hello, i know it is an old thread but maybe somebody is still looking for a solution for this problem. I also want to instal CM13 can somebody tell me if the problem is resolved? Can somebody with CM13 installed verify if this problem appears also on performance mode (battery=>performance mode)? THANKS

You don't need CM13 anymore, a developer (his name is Adam My.... I don't know) is working on Lineage 14.1 for this (v400) device. But it seems he can't fix the YouTube bug there either, because it's a kernel bug. I don't know the developer of the kernel, but I'll probably ask.

If the general performance of Lineage won't improve (what do you think? Is it a RAM thing or only the lack of optimization?) would you be so kind to build a version of Slim 7.x which includes these fixes? :fingers-crossed: As I said before, it runs better.

It runs very good on E6883
Flashed the latest Mokee ROM (March 10th version). WOW does it work so well! Other than lack of fingerprint sensor (which I don't use), I've never seen such a stable AOSP ROM as this! Also it comes with working kernel and TWRP recovery! I've already placed SuperSU and Viper4Android and my phone is kicking real hard! Camera is basic but works beautifully, and it reads my 128GB MicroSD card as well.
Really impressed.
Since the new nightly came out, you might give it another try for E6853? It seems to accept single sim model as well, and hopefully that night build resolved not all but some issues?

I can't flash it on my E6833, says device is not compatible during the install , also errors about E: not mounted.
version I used is MK71.2-satsuki-201704211533-NIGHTLY Model : E6853
First link is the picture with the default app.
the other two are screenshots of the default app open
Video also works EDIT:2 (Bug using the Volume keys to Zoom freezes the picture while recording, the recorded video also has this frozen picture) zooming with finger is still ok and working.
https://photos.google.com/share/AF1...?key=T2oxU0EyQ2VmWUtEbDhULXJENU9iVlREdFJUMEV3
Over all this rom is solid. runs extremely fast in comparison to stock, Games load crazy fast, I don't even see the loading screen on one of them anymore.
Google apps are all working
Wifi and mobile data are working
fingerprint reader is working
all standard AOSP features look like they're working normally, I've not had any FCs or problems since last night when i flashed it.
it is missing some features or i'm not sure where to activate them, like the split screen feature of Android 7 .... maybe its not in the AOSP roms yet, or it was taken out as a useless feature.
But over all, very snappy rom. very stable, except for the aforementioned bug in the video recorder, this is my new daily driver i think. a bit more testing and observation but i think Mokee has a winner there.
................................................ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> .........................................................
Final Edit.
A few days later
stable. solid. quite simply one of the best open source roms ive used.
faster than stock in every way. has built in root, built in privacy controls, best battery management ive ever seen in a phone.
options for this i thought should have been standard in android already.
like reversing the volume keys in landscape mode.
per app. notification management
DPI setting
much much better app loading. still cant get over how fast my games load.
but ... there is always a but.
the camera after alot more testing, just ain't the same. its a fine camera app. and it works well. as solid as the rest of the rom. but the over all quality when compared​ to my older photos of things I took in the same light conditions, sony stock with post processing just kills it.
gonna go back to custom debloated stock once Xposed is updated for 7.
ill keep an eye on mokee roms though, except that camera. the rom is just amazing. once a top quality decent camera is made that works for this rom. it will easily be the best rom made for this phone.
Post 12 is positive, does anyone have any news about the full functioning of the Rom on the E6853?
Can any one post some screen shots!?
