NEED HELP, PLS! Camera does not work with CM12.1!! - Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey!
Yesterday I installed on my Galaxy S3 Neo (I9301I) CM12.1.
However, when you start the Google camera app comes the error message: "Can not connect to the camera!".
Other camera apps also don't work.
All camera fixes that i could find, doesn't work (for example, the camera fix by Rox).
I also read that you can fix the problem with a different kernel (for example, the Boeffla Kernel).
But the Boeffla Kernel is not available for the Galaxy S3 Neo (I9301I).
Other kernel's have not solved the problem for me.
I don't know what I should do, to fix this problem.
Is anyone familiar with this problem and can help me?
Oh, also good to know is that I use the TWRP Recovery.
If you need to know something, just ask!
Thanks for all answers!

I had the same problem. Just reinstall CM12.1 and reinstall the kernel and everything will work. Just before reinstalling follow the steps (wipe system, data, cache, Dalvik cache...)

ICS Roms problem

I have a problem where when I clear the Dalvik Cashe, it says E: Unknown volume SD_ext... People have said on other forums that this is not a problem, but I believe it is because it only happens with ICS roms, and when this started happening, the camera and gallery also stopped working. When I launch the camera or gallery, it says "media scanning" and it immediately closes the app. Anyone have any ideas about this. I'm worrying that I've broken something and I won't be able to use an ICS Rom. So far I've tried a few ICS roms and they all have this problem, but I didn't have this problem with ICS roms before. And Gingerbread roms are fine. None of the problems above.
Did you flash this way?
- Flash CF Repack via Mobile Odin
- Stay in recovery and do the following
- Fullwipe (factory reset)
- Flash ICS ROM
- Fullwipe (factory reset) again. This is important.
- Reboot device.
If you didnt full wipe before and after flash this may of had something to do with it.
Try reflash this way especially if camera is still working on GB.
I also get that same message but no problems with camera. On MIDNOTE ics but also tried TRR 1.5 ics
It isn't a problem. All ICS roms say this. Even on the Galaxy Nexus.
I used Redpill recovery...some say nonsense, but it worked like a charm. I flashed the Midnote ROM w/Chinese leak base (which has Chainfire's kernel in it), then I was able to flash any thing else over that...AOSP, MIUI, ect...
It worked for me.

[Q] Video recording and video codec problems

I have an extremely persistent set of problems:
1. Unable to record video
- stock camera freezes and the phone restarts (no matter the resolution or storage)
- other camera apps (mx, open, google..) either freezes or acts like its recording but it doesn't
2. While playing some videos, the phone freezes and restarts (in 90% its instagram videos, but sometimes it plays them fine)
What i tried:
- a bunch of roms. The problems probably started with some of them.
- returned to a stock lolipop
- several custom and stock kernels
- a bunch of camera apps
Currently i'm on Audax rom v26.1 with its audax kernel.
Does anyone have idea what could i try?
Could it be a hardware problem? (other than that, camera works fine)
Thanks in advance.
So I solved it by:
Using Odin 3.11.1
I have already tried Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flashed the latest stock Lolipop or older lollipop with ODin and nothing solved the problem.
So I tried to flash the latest stock lolipop with Odin and marking checked (Auto Reboot , F. Reset Time , Phone EFS clear, Phone Bootloader update).
I suspect that the Phone EFS clear did the trick. It's function is related to the modem and radio of the phone. And clearly the modem has a problem here.
I hope this will help anybody out there having this issue.
This problem happened after trying to flash lollipop using FlashFire app to reserve the root that I had in my previos Android KK 4.4.2.

Hi there,
Sorry, but did not face any issue like that before.
If you have searched a lot for a solution and could not solve it, I suggest that you install this ROM:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/purify-cm-13-hlte-n9005-unofficial-cm13-t3337234
This happened to me once after a terrible mistake , which is not related to my above issue. Then I installed this ROM and never looked back. Much snappier phone, lower battery usage and less heated device. I just love it. The only thing that I missed, the better camera app in the stock ROM, and the TouchWiz ability to show multiple apps at the same time.
I strongly suggest that you do a Nandroid backup then give this ROM a try. If you did not like it, you can always return to the Nandroid backup again.
You are frustrated now, like I was. Take a deep breath, and remember that we all went through such bad times with our phone, not just you. This is part of the experience of using such complicated devices. You will solve it eventually, believe me!

All apps stop constantly and in random way -SM-N910F

Hello.
At first, I am new in the forum, so hi to everybody and thanks for the job in this site.
I have a very big problem with Note 4 ( I can't use it right now). Since I rooted the phone and changed the rom (to Cyanogenmod 12) all apps stop constantly and in random way. I have tried everything (I think so), return to the stock rom (android 5.0.1), make wipes (cache, data...) and reinstall the rom from Samsung switch.
I don't know what to do.
More info: All apps stop but the gapps stop with more frequency. I sent the device to the technical service but they take it back because I have modified the software (knox 0x1).
Sorry for my english. I am from Spain.
Thanks.
Third party apps or system apps?
Did you install any battery saving or ram booster apps?

All of them
No, I don't believe in those apps. The only thing that I did for imrpoving the performance was to intall CM12 (It works fine at first)
I thought that CM12 doesn't work well with the Fast Charging... Could it be?
Thanks.
It seems like you might've flashed a gApps package for an earlier version of Android than what Cm12 is (5.1.1).
Try a full device wipe, reflashing CM12 & a gapps for 5.1.1

I tried that and It didn't solve the problem. I also reflashed the stock rom (with Odin). Without effect, the problem was not resolved...
Thanks for your help.

Random reboots on every rom after H2OS

Hey guys.
I don´t wanted to create a thread about this but after some troubleshooting without a solution i don´t know what to do.
After i installed (i think it happens after that) kingmercians hydrogen os, i doesn´t matter which rom i use (cm13, cm12, aicp, ......) i got random reboots. I did´nt install any new app, tried it with gapps, without gapps.... Sometimes it happened right after the first boot of a new rom, sometimes while i restored via TB (no system apps!). It´s not reproducible for me.
I don´t want to make it factory fresh but i know this could be the last way.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Did you wipe before you installed new rom ? , also have to say that cyanogenmods like 12.1 and 13 are still unstable tried all myself too . I suggest you to wipe everything but not internal storage , after you installed those ROM's and gapps did you wipe ? also what gapps are you using ?

First, thank you for your reply!
Yeah.... Every time i switch between roms i wipe everything, cache, data, dalvik and system. And after gapps, i wipe dalvik and cache.
The strange thing is, the roms i used before without any problems (installed for example razor rom which i still had on my internal memory) causes reboots. That never happens before.

Thanks again for your clarification and suggestion!

Glad to help your welcome :good:

i9506 wifi stuck

I have i9506. I'm using custom rom Darklord S7E for many months but didn't face any problem. When i try to install krait kernel after install i wipe everything like dalvik, cache, data,* system. When phone start wifi didn't work.
I search on internet about this problem but didn't find any solution.
I tried *#0011# but didn't see any option in wifi tag.
Please help....
Sorry for my bad English.
It's because of the kernel. Go back to the original one.
