I just upgraded to DCD 3.2.3 and switched the camera options during the installation from Camera 4.05.30525.00 to Camera 5.07.30568.0. I noticed when everything was done that my camera does not have a flash option any longer.
I know it wasn't the best feature on the phone, but it was nice to have / use on occassion. Is it the DCD that removed the flash or the selection of the new camera? Is there a way to get that back or is this the price of upgrading?
Thanks.

that is the price of "upgrading" unfortunately.....5.07.30568 is actually a vogue/touch camera and dcd seems to like the vogues look and feel......but higher #'s don't always mean better....the 4.05.30525 is superior in that it has better auto focus, takes cleaner pics and well, it works.....i hope he puts it back in the stock build.....as the post above me said though, you can install 4.05.30525 from the kitchen.
So the natural question is... if I want to go back to Camera 4, do I only need to re-run the BUILDNB.bat and then select the correct Camera? And I would naturally assume this rebuilds the OS, so I'm going to lose all my data, right?
I think that's probably a small enough price to pay, but I wanted to make sure before I go making changes again.

Were to start -_-
1. the power button doesnt lock my phone.
2. gps does not work, anything gps related fails (Gps status, Locations)
3. Camera does not work (vignette app does work)
4. video recorder does not work
5. 3d gallery is more a 1 fps slide show.
6. when in gallery and i switch the phone sideways, it shows 6 images of the gallery distorted (unusable)
I did a fresh rom install, and still these problems persist.
cleared cache and all.
common problems or is it just this phone....
I have all the same issues with the exception of not being able to lock it. Change the camera from autofocus to touch focus, and get rid of the 3d gallery, Eris cannot handle it sadly.

+1 xtrSENSE, IMHO you won't find a better 2.1 ROM, or if you want stock but without sense home itself, xtrROM. Both excellent.
xtrsense is really the smoothest Ive used too.
i wonder if kaosfroyo got its CM updated and what not if it would work better? I know its been on the back burner for some time.

I have issues with the browser closing after about 3 seconds after updating to Kaosfroyo v39. I noticed your update link to fix the GPS and browser, but that link is not working. Any other insight on fixing this? Many thanks! Carl
Hmm. I just clicked on the link and it downloaded the gps fix for me instantly, it won't actually open a page as its a direct download. Did you try accessing the link with your phone or comp? Try the phone, and while it may be a pain in the ass, use an alternate browser temporarily for the link such as Dolphin Mini.
PM me if you are still having problems and I will do my best to help.

It's pretty simple and essentially the same process that you used to install KF. You are already rooted, so you now need to download the xtrSENSE5.0.1.zip file from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=726467
Copy that zip file to your SD card and then use the following procedure:
- shut down the phone
- restart in recovery by holding down VolUp while you start the phone until you see the Amon_RA recovery screen
- go to the Backup/Restore menu
- Choose Nandroid backup
- When that is done, press VolDn to return to the main menu
- Go to the Wipe menu
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Wipe Dalvik cache
- Press VolDn to go back to the main menu
- Choose Flash a zip from SD card
- Choose the xtrSENSE5.0.1.zip file
- restart the phone
I had kaosfroyo v39 for only a few minutes before i flashed a cyanogenmod7 gingerbread rom which made me much happier
how long have u had the gingerbread rom for? what are some of the features it has compared to the xtrsense rom or any xtr rom. i read the xtr rom's are super speedy i can't stand the froyo 39 definately slowing down lately
well im gonna try the xtr sense rom i've really wanted the sense capability back so i hope this goes good

I flip back and forth between xtrSENSE and one or two of the GB ROMs weekly; I, like many others, have been running the GB ROMs for many months now. They are very stable and much, much better than KF at this point.
I find it hard to find speed differences between ROMs after things have been running for a while. About the only difference I see is battery life - the GB ROMs are more efficient than xtrROM and xtrSENSE, all things being equal, on my phone. xtrSENSE is excellent, all of the GB ROMs are great and well-supported at this time. Sometimes there are updates to the GB ROMs that may break some functionality but they are always fixed by the next update - just read the comments in those threads to see and you can always download and flash an older version if you need something to work. You cannot go wrong with either choice.
well so far nearly 24hrs with the xtrsense rom and loving the speed and smoothness so far. there are a few things i liked to have kept from the froyo rom to this one but i'd rather have the smoothness and quickness than the few things i liked more from the froyo rom. still re-learning everything tho
Custom Rom: TripnMIUI 1.0 Final
Independent control of flash function not working on device. Attempted to install a third party camera app "camera 360". App notifies "sorry your cell phone has no flashing" when flash option is selected.
Utilizing MIUI camera to configure flash provides two options. Auto and On. Yet neither work.
Does anyone have any information or a possible solution?

try vignette for flash.
vignette isn't working. with the MIUI camera the dev's instructions are to switch off full screen due to some glitch that causes no picture. when i load this camera application i receive the same glitch, can not see picture what so ever.
i explored the settings in the app and there is no appropriate selection to be able to switch as i would with the MIUI camera. it seems this app isn't compatible with the rom.
I use the LED light app and just leave the light on while I take a pic >.>...
LED app like Torch? to activate the camera flash like an independent flash light?
Tried Torch, the app crashed. So I uninstalled it. Currently searching the market to see if anything is going to be compatible here. There must be some sort of fix as this flash problem wasnt listed in the dev's build release notes.
I use this https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.picolyl.led_light
even has a widget I put on my desktop... walk around my house at night like this...
i was hoping that would work
but it didn't
app installs. app loads. when i turn on the flash, nothing happens
leads me to assume there has to be a patch, because again, it must be rom related
Vignette seems to work for me. I have it set to auto flash and it comes on when I touch the screen.
Or is the point that you would rather use the miui camera?
Sorry if I misunderstood
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
when i start up Vignette i have absolutely no picture. just distorted colored stripes across the screen.
the miui camera was indicated as being faulty in full screen mode. within the release notes there were instructions to open the settings within MIUI camera and change off of full screen to resolve the picture issue.
as per developers ROM documentation:
Known bugs:
- Phone reboots when you press exit in Root Explorer (not included)
- MIUI camera has messed up screen (fix this by going into miui cam settings and turn off "Full screen"
that issue is the exact same thing that I am experiencing in Vignette. with MIUI camera i was able to make the appropriate change and restore full picture.
with Vignette no option presents itself to enable me to do this. i dont necessarily care which app i use to take pictures as long as i am able to operate the flash and sustain full camera functionality.
both miui camera the stock camera are not functioning with flash for me. i have set to automatic within miui camera and even still the flash fails to initiate.
even if i switch to "ON" within MIUI camera that doesn't work either. the stock camera app has no flash control option in its settings. and so far the third party apps i've tried such as "camera 360" resulted in a message saying my phone doesn't have flash. and Vignette was not resolving picture. i was unable to locate a respective setting similar to that of MIUI camera to initiate a functional view. therefore was forced to uninstall
Attached a temporary solution
Slightly improved brightness over my original: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996973
I'm working on flashlight fix to work with vignette. Hopefully Trip will fix it too in next release
nice thanks. would this apk just manually be pushed through ADB to sytem/apps? or do i have the option to install straight from SD?
im going to go ahead and try this out. thanks again.
side note: is it correct to assume a pending update for this build considering it was released as a "final version" it would be nice to see some fixes implemented to further stability and full functionality.
another issue ive experienced over the past couple days back and forth between this rom is particularly when files are in midst of being transferred to sd card. but not limited to. the phone seems to force reboot. and this does not cease. case in point. i initiated sd mounting and upon hitting confirm, phone went into power cycle.
update: *Torch works perfect. I hit thanks

I have bought the depreciated version and even though it works great on latest MIUI, flash still doesn't work.
so .... like you said .... depreciated?
turns out it doesn't work after all. wonderful
i can understand the picture part working, unlike the demo. but if flash doesn't work. it doesn't turn out to be an all in one solution. flash is the issue here. i can utilize either miui or even stock camera for the pictures. its the flash that is giving complications.

Use the torch app with it
i guess the torch app will suffice. its going to have to because every app ive tried doesn't recognize the flash function. its a smart work around.
i noticed an update pack released for the rom hopefully flash will be noted for a fix sometime in the future. thanks everyone

I don't think it worked with any roms did it? I don't even think it worked with stock
your right. it never worked. with anything.
although i must say i never tested it on 6.1.3 rom release. but with stock it was working for me. at least it would turn on
So I've read that the only thing that is not working for 2.2 (and maybe above) custom roms camera is the Zoom function? But I could still take great pictures and vids, but without the zoom, correct??
I just need clarification thanks
Ive tried most, if not all of the major 2.2 roms. The camera was the selling point for the phone so why hinder it? That being said I really need to keep the function, so I was picky about it and even uninstalled a few roms that I otherwise loved because of the audio/video sync problems. Ive found that wolfbreaks rom, and pzafroyo (my current fave) have little to no probs with the camcorder sound, where as most others have bad lag and/or low sound playback. The picture IMO look the best with wolfbreaks, I actually like it better than the stock 2.1 camera, I impressed my brother who has an iphone 4. There seems to be a fair amount of picture settings for all of the 2.2 stuff, aside from zoom which I can live w/o. The MIUI camera takes nice pics but it seemed like the menu is laggy and touch wasnt being picked up easily.
Yeah, I can live without the zoom. I don't use it at all.

Be careful...I installed a couple 2.2 ROMs and i had troubles with the camcorder as well. You can get around zoom for pictures with Vignette which is a good camera app for 3$ in the market, but my videos were either lagging or freezing.
I went back to a 2.1 ROM until the camera is 100%
Some people had better luck than me...so you may be one of the lucky ones.
Just make a backup of a 2.1 ROM and then setup whatever 2.2 you want and if the camera isn't good enough then whenever you need it you can restore the 2.1 and switch back when your done with it.

camera is not fully working in any 2.2 ROM due to some underlying issues regarding the APL level changes from 2.1 to 2.2
I am hoping that we get back the zoom in 2.3.3 upgrade by SE and i hope that it happens soon.
then on that ROM people can bet lots and lots of stuff.
I'm not sure how new this is, but I saw that there was an update on the Telus website.
Software update: 1.20.661.1 (57.51 MB)
There isn't much detail, other than: System performance and stability enhancement.
Maybe it has a wifi and bluetooth fix for the problems... Wifi dropping with screen off and bluetooth sound quality during calls (bluetooth was mostly fixed with custom rom dev's)
Anyways, just wanted to see if anyone has completed this update and if anything is noticeable?
So I installed the update and for things I have noticed havent checked it all out yet.
Power saver is the same but now new option in power is Application Monitor
Speed definitly improved I no longer have to wait for engadget to load articles
sound quality on bluetooth had one call was a little better not much
bluetooth audio playback is perfect still
audio playback use to skip now its gone.
still 4.1.1
text messaging app is different cant select folders from top left no longer have to use menu button on top right
( my text messaging app use to crash 2 - 3 times a week will need further testing to know if that is fixed)
I will report on battery life but seems the same to me so far.
Can someone post the update? Check the /cache folder...

This thing is screwing me.. Custom Rom's not working with it and neither is the Telus 1.15 RUU to go back to stock.
I would say Do Not upgrade unless you are running stock and have no want to for custom rom's in the near term.
For now. Hopefully the Awesome Rom developers get things going again with the newer firmwares.

I'd say it depends on what you value. For me, I'm about to flash stock again because I need NFC and I'm tired of fumbling with other stock features that are incompatible with CM12 (remote, camera). I wish I could do without the 170 or so sprint apps, but oh well. Only thing missing from stock zv8 is tweakbox

I decided to try both. CM12 had a couple of issues that I couldn't get around. I went with rooted stock Lollipop eventually. I just wish I could get the stock Lollipop lockscreen that they use in CM12.
Okay, hear me out. I've tried out both. I always end up flashing some kind of AOSP rom because I love the stock feeling of pure android. You don't really get that full pure android experience on stock. With that said, whenever I flash AOSP roms such as CM12, I always find myself returning to stock within days of usage because I just can't get over the fact that stock lollipop ZV8 is so much more impressive, in terms of camera quality and snappiness, NFC, etc. I feel more stable and secure on stock. Of course I am running stock ZV8 pre-rooted and I have most unessential bloatwear uninstalled. Also, with CM12, you don't get the sprint Visual Voicemail app and it makes listening to voicemail weird (of course you can dial your number or sideload app but its not the same).
TLDR: I find myself returning from CM12 to Stock everytime because Stock so much better (Camera quality is better, use of NFC, no bluetooth issues, etc.)

Thanks for this. I was debating giving CM12 another shot and restoring my set up stock if I didn't like it but you saved me some time/trouble.
How do I uninstall the bloatware, and what exactly did you uninstall?

Alright!! Uninstalling bloatware is incredibly easy to do. You can use any file explorer that has root capabilities to access system files and edit/modify them. Personally, I use rootexplorer but keep in mind it is not free. You can use alternatives such as "System app remover" (not sure if that works but i googled it for you) which is free.
After you have installed a system file explorer, you can go into the very root of your phone storage and go find a folder called "system" and go into it and you'll find another folder called "app" and once you're there, you will find a bunch of APK's or folders that hold the stock-installed applications on your phone. Basically, from this point on, you can pretty much pick and uninstall whatever apps you don't like.
I have removed most google applications such as Maps, keyboard, Lg G3 keyboard and calender, youtube, music, smart notice, weather, live wallpapers, etc., but its really up to what you want to keep and not keep. Also, you don't want to uninstall anything if you do not know what it is (example: you find an app called "alsdfnasire.apk", if you do not know what it does, its best to not remove it because it might result in a bootloop).
I don't have a list of what I uninstalled but if you really really want a list, I can reinstall stock and write down everything I delete for you, just let me know!! <3
Also, I really recommend trying out CM12, you might fall in love with it. You don't want to limit yourself to just stock. Its so easy to go back to your current rom as long as you backup with twrp recovery. Just a suggestion <3 <3 <3.
