New S5 G900FD: Camera not working with CM12/CM13 - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is the camera in a S5 G900FD working for anyone with CM13 snapshot/nighty or CM12 snapshot?
I just got this new toy, put twrp-2.8.7.0-klte.img and cm-13.0-20160412-NIGHTLY-klteduos on it. Neither the LED Flashlight thing nor the Camera app is working.
The output from 'adb logcat' suggests that something is wrong with the "preview stream". Does it have any prereq, like google apps or something?
Is it supposed to work, are there perhaps drivers missing? Right now its kind of an expensive brick..

After installing twrp-3.0.2-0-klteduos.img I wiped that data and system partition, now I think its a clean new system.
Then I installed cm-13.0-20160413-NIGHTLY-klteduos.zip. Still, neither flashlight not camera is working.
I found variours threads with users who most likely have a G900FD, so I wonder if its just me or if the Camera is just not supported. If thats the case, their wiki should be updated to state that fact.

I have G900FD with CM 13, too, and I have no probs with camera. Works as it should.

Thanks for your reply. I have created bug CYAN-7613 in Jira.

[Q] Support for LG G3 with Cyanogenmod 12?

Hi, I've read that support for LG G3 is in the works but is or will there be support for the G3 running CM12?
I've just tested this, even bought the version from Play store and for me it doesn't work. Is there a Kernel requirement for FM radio which CM12 may not have? I could supply any log data you request.
Thanks and great work so far.
Yup, i confirm, doesn't work on lg g3. Pitty.

Sorry for my delay. I started a re-coding "marathon" on the weekend and it stretched for a week.
I intend to support the LG G3 as well as I possibly can, on any ROM. I have almost bought a G3 for testing a few times, but haven't gone through with it yet.
The CM12 kernel does not at present include the needed Qualcomm V4L FM radio "IRIS" driver.
I will try to submit the tiny 2 line config file change needed for that and see if they respond.
Someone built an FM friendly kernel and it worked, but there are/were still some audio issues. We can work around this with the new analog mode being added to Spirit2, and this should be properly resolved at some point.
Oh, thats great to hear.
For the Cyanogen part: They actually have a section in their bugtracker for FM Radio [1]. Once you have done that could you post the links to the pull request and the bug entry here. I will follow it and update my phone as soon as the fix is built. If there is anything I can do to help you please let me know.

OK.
Last night I submitted the same patch for Xperia Z1 and it seems well received. First time I ever built a CM ROM and it took a few days to get everything downloaded and built and figure out how to submit CM patches etc.
My response time to posts and emails has increased, and my responses are more brief, because I have decided to spend more time doing what needs to be done and less time talking about it.
WOW great news!!
Thank's very much :victory:

Great! I'm trying CM12 in my G3 and, despite some typical nightly bugs, it's working quite well. I only really miss FM radio! :fingers-crossed:

Is the needed FM driver in the CM12 kernel for LG G3 now ?
And is the remaining problem that the sound sounds horrible ?

If you have the T-Mobile variant, I do not think FM can ever work for you.
As with the LG G2, only the Sprint and International variants have the FM antenna pin connected as needed to the headset jack for the antenna.
Other variants are purposely and permanently "broken" by shorting the pin to ground.
There was rumor here and there that other variants might work, but I think that was based on Spirit not showing a specific error at one point.
So, AFAICT, only the International D855 and Sprint's model.

I have built a CM12 based kernel that I think should work.
I do not have a G3 so I can not test it.
I can not make any guarantees that it will boot and won't harm anything.
This is a boot.img file. Anyone flashing it should understand how to flash such a file so I won't explain.
I will submit the patches to CM once someone can verify.

Genius, it works. Sound quality seems fine to me. Just send me the link to the patch you will send in and I can confirm the cm guys, that it is working if you want.
Edit: I just noticed that wake up by double tap does not work. I assume that just because you used a different kernel config to the stock cm one...

Great !
I did not touch the kernel config at all. I used this one, stock as of this morning, AFAICT: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...0/arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_d855_defconfig
The config has this, unchanged:
Code:
CONFIG_RADIO_IRIS=y
CONFIG_RADIO_IRIS_TRANSPORT=y
All I did to patch/fix was this:
Code:
cp kernel/motorola/msm8226/drivers/media/radio/radio-iris-transport.c kernel/lge/g3/drivers/media/radio/radio-iris-transport.c
cp kernel/motorola/msm8226/drivers/media/radio/radio-iris.c kernel/lge/g3/drivers/media/radio/radio-iris.c
This copied the Qualcomm fix from the MotoG kernel source that allows radio-iris-transport to work built into the kernel, instead of only as a module.

Patch is here: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/90794/
I played around with it a bit more. FM worked like a charm, but several other things didn't work at all. Most importantly Settings crashed for me when I tried to open display settings. I assume that is because my CM is a little more than a week old while your build is just a few days old. I reverted by to my old boot.img but I will test the first nightly with your patch in it.

Maybe.
I've seen Settings crash on a few devices/ROMs.
Common AOSP Lollipop ROMs still have lots of problems.
They ALL have a nasty memory leak that gets bigger every time Spirit sends an RDS update to notification shade/remotes/lockscreen. I have to reboot my test phones every day or so to avoid unpredictable restarts when Android system_server fills its' internal table maxed at 51,200.
Stock Lollipop ROMs don't have this problem, so IMO must be some common bug in CM12 I think. (I could/should verify if Nexus/pure AOSP shares this.)
Well, it doesn't look too good. They seem to want this as a loadable module, which you explicitly stated different in your commit message. Any ideas an what to do next?

Yes, I think so, it's just taking me a long time to do it.
The patches I provided WORK. The complaint was that IF they re-configure the kernel to use modules, then the kernel will not build and he did not like that.
Many kernels have removed modules now and it is rare to go back to modules, so I find this a bit strange, but I am not the one maintaining kernels.
The patches were not really "developed" by me. I just grabbed the very similar files from the MotoG CM12 kernel thinking they would not complain; it was just aligning the code between CM12 kernels.
My plan since the patches were rejected is to use the files from (I think) a Sony CM12 kernel that I think should work with or without modules.
But I have had a LOT of trouble getting d855 kernels and ROMs to build since my initial changes that worked AND it can take hours to build a new ROM and I still have not figured out how to build just the kernel, which is much faster.
This is the problem I had last night and the night before and I am not a ROM dev so it takes time for me to figure out what is wrong or how to fix (maybe a "make clean" or similar"):

With troubles like these, and ROM builds taking hours and my lack of a G3 to test, this is moving slowly.
Add the fact that I am exhausted from the last few months of MORE major changes to Spirit2, some time spent with my family and looking into Android Auto and things move even more slowly.
...And the build guide for G3 seems to have disappeared too: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_Guides#vendor=%22LG%22;
...And... any chance you know the OFFICIAL CM12 way of switching between module and non-module kernels ? I know the defconfig "CONFIG_MODULES=y" thing, but I'm not sure if other changes are needed. I can do a "make menuconfig" but I'm not sure if I should write .config to the defconfig. "make config" gives a million options; I tried that and produced a kernel that probably won't even boot on a G3.
Perhaps I should post in a G3 forum section asking for help.
I posted on that patch now: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/90794/
Hi, I don't understand half you are talking about
I'm just an user who wants CM12 and FmRadio.
That being said, I can read this changelog in 777 kernel thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/kernel-777-kernel-t3003115). Did anyone try this "radio" builds?
02/08/15
- R6
- Fix Powersuspend
- CM kernel updates
- Synaptic touch firmware update
- Separate d855 builds with fm radio module

(EDIT: Tried by myself. Radio works with 777 kernel. However, audio quality is quite bad.)
Second, I would like to test any beta kernels, spirit app, or whatever in my G3 D855, in order to help making it work. Please tell me how can I do it.
Thank you very much!

Snapdragon Camera: For CM13 on ZUK Z1

Hello!
I've just finished putting '[ROM][6.0.1] Unofficial CyanogenMod 13.0 Nightlies (4K, USB-OTG, OTA, etc)' on my ZUK Z1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z1/orig-development/unofficial-cm13-t3277885
Everything went smoothly, and I have the ROM up and running. However, when I was flashing gApps. I flashed 'Stock' gApps as I didn't want any CM apps since I prefer using Google versions of it.
But in the process, it also removed Snapdragon Camera app from the ROM too. As quoted by MrColdBird:
Yes it's supported in the included Snapdragon Camera, however only at 60fps (50% speed) and up to 1080p. I'm still working on unlocking 120fps (25% speed) and slow motion for 4k.
I cannot post as of now in that thread. So, I cannot request the individual apk file from MrColdBird. I have looked around and while I can find Snapdragon Camera apk file (mostly 2.0 version), it requires a bit too many steps (including going through TWRP, applying permissions and so on) just to install an apk.
So, either I flash the ROM again and this time, flash different gApps to keep Snapdragon Camera (which means I'll start all over again since I've already setup my device). Or there is any other simpler way of just flashing a zip without having to deal with permissions, moving files around?
Any help would be appreciated.
Good project! Thanks! Will keep an eye on this thread..
EDIT. Answering your question, I am almost sure u can edit update-script inside flashable so it fixes proper permissions after flashing the snapdragon camera and its libs.
Hello!
I found this little gem buried in the thread '[APP] Snapdragon Camera v2.1'
Credits to Einstein67 who made a flashable zip file for automatic installation.
https://mega.nz/#!VB80iRIS!aEwJWFxkR...g_EL9uhASgtGqQ
I'm going to try it right now. Oh and also, the Google Camera app is pretty glitchy and doesn't work most of the time if anyone is wondering.
--
It doesn't work. Fails to launch. For now, I'm to go and reinstall the ROM from the start and configure it again but this time, I'll flash gApps which doesn't replace ASOP apps.
just dl aroma version of opengapps and while flashing set it up not to replace camera app with google's one, and u should be fine)

Having the duos and LTE versions working is very positive (3g version have much things in common with LTE), so I think we are in the right way. Very thankful with developers, WELL DONE!!
Great work, all working perfectly, the only bugs I found were:
1 - When trying to access the properties of the any file, the CM File Manager suffers crash. (i'm solving using another File Manager temporarily)
2 - The FM Radio application does not appear to have been installed.
3 - In the grid menu, the icons are not symmetrically arranged, getting a bit scattered (I don't consider well a bug).
Despite this the essential works very well: Camera, Wifi, GPS, AGPS.
thx bro.:good:
Is someone thinking about opening a new thread?
Many thanks to share, overall impression is very good for a 1st build,
around 8 random reboot in 12 hours (2 when calling), I don't restore from backup, only call list and sms,
same random reboot with previous AICP 11 (marshmallow) 2 times per weeks.
Anyone else with reboot ?
I have no reboots.
Beside misaligned icons on stock launcher i have some fc on file manager and various app, and camera not working.
Anyway is very promising for an early build

i follow the main CM13 thread quite closely, so was already aware of the early CM14 test versions. My post was to advise the OP to be more respectful and courteous to @arco68's work.
I don't follow this thread, I was happy you point the right direction,
I was more confident to flash after I see who make this build, I post the link for other like me.
Now 12h without 1 random reboot,I think my problem is solved, only difference: I don't restore call list and sms (around 2k)
Some side effect like sluggish interface and long delay to respond when I open the magnetic cover have also totally disappear.
Only 2 problems like said: file explorer can't access microsd card but strangely other applications have access and video recording.
I will check to see which one exactly cause my problem (call list ? sms list ? other thing ?)
For a 1st build, I would say it's totally usuable and 99% perfect !!!

3 problems at one time!!!

Hi
I'm from Italy
My name is Giampaolo
The galaxy s3 neo is my second phone
The phone was rooted with resurrection remix rom and after an accidental falling I've changed the LCD display with frame
Then I unrooted the phone and I've installed a stock rom from sammobile
Tryied more stock roms
All the things gone well except rear camera, microphone and ear jack
Now first thing I've done it's changed two times the ear jack and it doesn't work at all
The music comes distorted and with low volume when I listen music from ear jack .
Tryied more earphones.
From speaker music comes at right volume
Is this depending from some bugs?
How can I fix the problems?
I've tryied all the resets I know
Changed roms
In the mean time I've bought rear camera on eBay and s microphone and I'm going to change them.
What else I could do?
Tnx
Giampaolo
Problem.

Hello Giampaolo,
I'm very sorry you're going through this, but your situation is interesting because something similar happened to me.
I also tried getting my S3 Neo on stock version from Samsung, yet I couldn't find the correct version so I had the problem with camera not working, and headphone jack.
I think you should try to find a correct version of the stock system, or flash another custom one, as I did.
I installed Lolipop by developer Rox, it is amazing, and stable. If you want I can send you the link.
I would generally suggest that you use Lolipop 5.1.1 cm12, since stock Samsung system is heavily bloated, and has lot's of security flaws, regarding your permission, etc.
I hope I was helpful, anyways, if you need that link just tell me.
Have a nice day,
Nikola.

I hope I was helpful, anyways, if you need that link just tell me.
Have a nice day,
Nikola.

Here is the link of the Rom, it is developed by Rox, who is an amazing developer, soon there will me 6.0 version for S3 Neo, it is currently being tested and developed, so hopefully we will see it soon.
Link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24344671467602216
Instalation of the ROM is simple, standard one, you will do it over recovery, but just in case I will also send you tutorial here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-neo/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-s3-neo-t3099384
GAPPS Link: http://opengapps.org/
Also for GAPPS download 5.1 version, and I recommend Pico, since it is just the essentials, other google apps are easily downloadable from the market.
Enjoy!

Hi Nikola,
I've installed CM12 and Gapps as you told me, but the problems ( microphone and earjack sound distorted ) still exist.
In the mean time I solved the camera issue changing it with a new one.
Does anyone know if this kind of problems could depend from playservice app?
I've read around the web something about.
Tnx

Google Camera MOD - any available?

I'm trying to install Google Camera. So far, I've tried BSG versions , a few of them, all 32 bit of course (made for Android 6+). You can finde the list at celsoazevedo website, filter for BSG and look up for 3.2
None of them has worked, I can install the app, I can run it, I can record video but when I switch to camera mode I only see a black window and it freezes. I can even access the settings.
What can I do? Is it because S5 doesn't have Camera2 API? Is there a solution? I'd really like to use Gcam, even if it'd be a super old version, cause the stock camera of Resurrection Remix ROM is really bad
Thank you

You need to post this in the troubleshooting thread.

This old version will work - see attachment Unzip first
However I would try something like open camera from the playstore

Thank you so much man, it's working
I wanted to try Gcam cause everyone says it's really good. I know the latest versions are much much better because of many factors, but I guess this old version is still better than the custom ROM stock ones.
I'll also try open camera, thanks
Works on G900F / G900FD ?
