Slow camera launch - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I've been running the CM13 Nightlies on my Moto X Style (Pure) for the past few months. I'm up to date with the releases.
Ever since I first installed the Nightlies, and even before that, on stock, my camera (the official one, not the CM one) takes a long time to open. Is this common? I can confirm that this happens with every kind of launch (aka: double press power, double twist, lock-screen shortcut, app icon).
If anyone has been experiencing the same thing, and has a solution, please share. Thanks in advance.

Yes it's common, at least for me. The only ROM (of those i've tried) that does not have that is TruPure ROM which is based on stock ROM.

Ah, okay, I'll make sure to check out Trupure then. Thanks for the tip.

Camera app

Running an "older" rom (mid September) that is very stable and im very happy with.
Only problem is it the camera/cam-corder apps, they want me to use the trackball to take a picture.
....i have no trackball.
I've run across other roms with camera apps that use the on screen shutter button. is there any way to snatch this app and copy/install it to my working android rom?
...and yes. I've done many many searches, problem is just too many irrelevant posts are popping up.
i use a 3rd party camera, like Vignette or FX Camera.. also Camer MAgic isnt too bad.. all are free from the MArket Place

You tap and hold anywhere on the screen. The auto-focus will kick in and turn green, and it should take the picture.
Which Android build are you using? The 3 builds I've tried had the statement above in their README/FAQ sections.

[ICS][ALPHA] CM9 with (somewhat) working camera for Milestone 2

New version at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1528084
Hi,
First of all, sorry for posting this in general forum, but as you can see this is my first post...
This is a snapshot of my work on bringing camera support to Tezet's Milestone2 ICS port.
This build is not intended for daily use. The camera crashes when changing mode to video or panorama, and when exiting Camera app (though this is not visible ). But preview is working (as far as I know this is better than Defy), and I took ~20 photos in a row without problems.
Regarding the build itself:
- it's based on CM9 snapshot from Feb 25
- there's a bug with contacts showing as "Unknown" in the dialer (while you dial). As far as I know it is the same on latest Defy builds, so I assume this is an upstream bug from CM9
- it may contain more (or less) bugs from Tezet's builds. It's simply different, though I use builds from my branch since early January on daily basis
- the fix for SIM lock pin is not included
- it should be possible to load this without factory reset on top of Tezet's builds and the other way around, though the last time I've tried this was two weeks ago...
- there's no need to wipe dalvik cache - the update script does this
The work is based on Atrix ICS camera support, with added overlay emulation.
What is working:
- live preview
- zooming
- flash
- focus
- exposure compensation etc
- taking photos
- ... probably not much more
What is not working:
- panorama shots
- video recording
- a lot more
Would anyone be brave enough to check it?
I highly recommend to do a nandroid backup before trying it.
Latest version for phones with European GB kernel:

Latest version for all other phones:

If your phone is stuck on red Moto logo, it means you have chosen a wrong version and you need to recover your phone from the SBF file.
Repository:
repo init -u git://github.com/rondoval/android.git -b ics
All the credits go to:
- Tezet, for the Milestone2 port
- tpruvot, Quarx2k, for their tremendous efforts on Defy support (and thus Milestone2)
- whole Atrix-Dev-Team, Raviprasad V Mummidi, zivan56 for their tremendous work on the camera driver
Guess I missed this thread because it is in General Not your fault though.
I will test it as soon as I got some spare time. Sounds promising.
Thanks a lot for your efforts!!
What about bluetooth and wi-fi tethering? Are they working? I'm asking since they are working on Defy's GB kernel build.
And it would be better if some MOD can move this to DEV section.
Can we wait with that moving till I reach 10 posts?
I have merged some tethering code from Defy. Havent tested it though. I think I would have to use Defy's wifi driver, not CM9 default for that to work.
Bluetooth is not here.
sounds good !!
hmm.. so that you can respond to ppl. That makes sense.
I have installed it. It works fine. The camera starts and works as indicated.
One problem that everyone is going to notice first up is that if you make an outgoing call to a contact, the dialer shows unknown and all outgoing calls accumulate under 'unknown'.
And yes, there is no bluetooth.
Regarding the dialer: that's what I wrote about in the first post... I think it's the same on Defy right now.
Okay. I don't know about Defy but it is working on Tezet's ROM.
BTW, thanks again for porting the Atrix camera fix to MS2.
It's working on Tezet's build, but it's a month older. It was working on mine before I polled CM9 changes last saturday. I'll look into this.

You are the savior of our milestone 2. Now we have two devs rondoval and tezet -- greatest honor to both of you
downloading,will test later
edit:I think you can open another thread in dev section once you have reach 8 posts so more people will notice it.

Will be hoping that the wrinkles can be ironed out and we can have a better functioning CM9. And we may soon come out of ALPHA stage and move to BETA.
I noticed that there is no file manager in your build.
tested. camera working fine with preview and taking photo.
@sahilarora911:yep, there is no file manager...
This is really nice!
Did someone test mobile hotspot/wifi tether? if not would someone? ^^
regards
Steven
For unknown bug go to dialer setting and click show numbers or something like that already posted on defy page......
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App and don't forget to say thanks
Fist of all, would like to thank you for your great work.
Camera does work indeed...that's a small step for a man and giant leap for MS2
BTW is it just me or noone else is bothered this not working Caps Lock on HW keyboard?
Thanks again.

Thanks for that but the option gets greyed out really quickly . It has to be done fast. Got it fixed.
The option you have to select is dialer/dialer settings/additional setting/caller ID/show number

Thanks, the way my call log looks was starting to annoy me Works here too, though I don't get why such a change.
I removed the file manager (and Torch I think?). The file manager is not included in official CM9 branch, besides I don't like it anyway
Camera works for defy with bayer module.
I have to add this to build.prop
ro.media.capture.flip=horizontalandvertical
BIG BIG THANKS
Thanks, rondoval! Awesome!
IN YOUR FACE, MOTOROLA!!!

BlissPop on Tab 4 10.1 - pulldown menu is small

I installed BlissPop 4.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/development/rom-blisspop-3-1-t3084757) on my T530 the other day. Everything went fine and it's running smoothly. But the pulldown menu (notifications section) when you swipe from top to bottom is small, as if the rom thinks I'm on a phone. Is there a UI setting to tell it this is a tablet, and that it can use the entire screen?
Thanks in advance!

@sub77, I tried the blispop builds that you provided. The 110 was the last update. I would like to mention here, that the animations and the other features are awesome... Great work pal!!!
In my case though, I did a custom ROM Install and then also flashed the modem (from bruce) yet I dont have any luck with the Mobile Connection. Also, the rear camera did not function for me. But yes, I have the Wifi and Bluetooth running. themes are functioning proper. There is a little glitch in opening the notification bar, as it does not easily get pulled down.
Can you shed some light on my concerns???

Soft navigation buttons "One button Nav" in custom ROMs

I like the Moto G5p feature "One button Nav". Is this still available on custom roms ? .
Clarification of what I am referring to - it replaces the Back:Home:Menu (triangle:circle:square)soft buttons with swipe gestures on the finger print sensor.
I would like to know that too. As far as I know, it's not available in any other custom roms.
It is available on every (or almost every) custom rom.

Can confirm in nearly every ROM. Usually in the settings application under either gestures or buttons.

I have my Moto G5+ for around 3 days, today I'm getting stable with Ressurection Remix, Magisk working well, Android Pay also, and your features are there too. I just can't figure how to make 1080p 60fps recording, but everything else is flying. cheers

MIUI 9 Pro with Oneplus 5T/Iphone X gesture Feature for Oneplus 3/3T!!!!

This MIUI Rom is very close to stable and have tons of features, it comes with preinstalled play store. If you are looking for MIUI 9 Rom and this would be the best One.
This is not my work.

Amazing rom overall, been using previous build for weeks. Video saving is the only minor issue so far.

After wiping stuff, UNMOUNT SYSTEM, then flash.
Languages included in the ROM?
Thank you OP.
Can you (or anyone else who is currently using this version) confirm if Double Tap To Wake is working?? I remember liking the previous versions of this miui but had to remove it as soon as found out DT2W is not working -- that is a showstopper for me. Also, on the video you just posted the reviewer explicitly states that there are GPS issues with the OP3T specifically, can anyone comment on this??

GPS works as intended, double tap to wake doesn't.
Back on this after trying out some new 8.1 builds. Still rom to beat.
I hope @akino553 credited properly for his work on this.

Thanks for the tip! Video saving works with this app, confirmed.
Some MIUI and ROM features aka reasons to try this rom:
GApps included.
VOLTE works.
No major bugs, daily driver.
It's Nougat but rom is smooth and fast!
Fingerprint is fast! Better that most 8.1 roms.
Slick interface, coming from very blunt stock android and OOS roms.
Great theme engine. All black theme present.
Great selection of wallpapers online.
Native call recording.
Latest GCam works.
Native screenshot scroll for extended screenshots.
Mi Account and Mi could - great native way to back up and restore your contact, messages, notes, apps. (just create free MI account)
Some minor issues:
- double tap to wake doesn't work.
- video saving issue (temporarily fixed by using footej camera from play store)
At initial boot and setup phone gets pretty hot but give it 20 mins and it's gonna be like any other rom.
Using magisk 15.2 as per developer recommendation, all good here, root gets remembered by apps.
Sometime laggy...but best miui rom
Anybody tried on op3t?
I heard in the video that the GPS services wasn't working on the 3t. If anyone has flashed this on 3t can you confirm that and also how's the battery life ? Another thing is does g cam work completely with portrait mode on both sides?

OP3T user here. Video recording DOES NOT work with the built-in camera apps. I've not tried 3rd party apps yet.
The GPS works fine,no issues faced yet.
I've been consistently getting 7+ hours of SOT. Pretty stable ROM.
