Dude, relax.
Its Xenon Flash. Xenons aren't physically able to light, they ONLY can flash.
So everything is fine. Maybe you should have informed yourself before buying.

Shooting 1080p videos with the OMEF01 camera in S2 is a bummer. Too much noticeable lag; and no it is not an effect. Is there any newer firmware available for this?
so is it possible to fix?
read the camera firmware thread. Happens to a few people when the camera is adjusting the exposure, u can flash a different firmware for no lag but the camera light will only work for pictures. Won't be able to use it during videos or as a flashlight
lol, this issue was known 8 months ago, Samsung don't give a **** obviously. There's another thread where you can flash the camera fw from the infuse 4g or something, but you lose the flash.
So basiclly right now there is no way to fix this?
Im gonna take it to the repair center since i still have my warranty.
so basically, only if I had SCEE09 camera (latest according to chinese assembled S2) I can upgrade?
No idea. I gave up a long time ago. There are other camera threads with more info.
Try the outdoor mode in camera settings and try save 2 a class 10 sd card.

Ok so first off, hi everyone . Newbie here with a question for you guys.
So my problem is, I have a 5 day old galaxy s2 and for some reason the camera is not performing as I expected it to.... Whenever I set it to record a video in 1080p the end result is always grainy/poor quality and the video is kind of slow. When I set it to record in 720p----and this part really pisses me off---- the video flickers at random intervals when I pan the camera around. It's quite the annoyance especially considering I spent so much $$ on this phone and you would expect it to perform as advertised. The lower res settings work fine though. BTW I'm running everything stock 2.3.4 Gingerbread (installed some apps/games and GoLauncher EX). My question is; has anyone experienced anything similar and if so what did you do to resolve the issue? If anyone can help me out or have any suggestions etc. I would greatly appreciate your help.
I did some searching around and apparently, it is a bug in the camera software as I thought.... Low lighting conditions causes a stutter effect and lag while auto-focusing in 720p. I know low lighting would have some effect on video quality but it only happens in 720p which leads me to believe its a software issue and hopefully not a defect. I dont know if all S2s have this problem but it sure is annoying and there is no official fix yet. Do any of you with rooted phones and 2.3.5 firmware suffer from this? I'm seriously considering rooting my phone now... BTW I messed around with the exposure setting in 1080p and that seemed to solve the 'grainyness' so at least I can rest easy now...somewhat. I still think this phone is the best though, no questions there. No minor issue can change that.
Hi !
I am new here so I can't post to dev forums yet but I wanted to let it be known to whomever that 1) I REALLY appreciate the extremely hard work that has been done by jokersax and the rest of the dev team on the Photon 4G CM9 project. It is AMAZING!! THANKS!!!! and/but ....
2) I have not been able to use the video camera for RECORDING with any of the betas. Other camera functions including taking rear cam stills and front cam stills/face unlock work fine and always have for me on the betas but rear cam video recording on 720p mode will lag to complete unusability and record button does absolutely nothing in ANY mode. Switching rear cam to 480p will reduce lag in viewfinder significantly but STILL will not record.
My (very)uneducated GUESS is that this problem is somehow connected to the inability to play back ANY previously recorded videos in hardware render mode without MAJOR lag. Using an aftermarket video player (mobo/MX) allows for switching to software rendering in settings, which then allows playback at VERY slow motion at BEST, but smooth slow motion which is better than nothing I suppose. I also had a similar problem on an Optimus S that turned out to be related to the SD card for some reason. I am lost on this one.
I have cleared all caches multiple times, reinstalled stock everything, reinstalled the betas and so on and so on, but have NEVER had a working VIDEO camera since the alphas/betas started showing up. I haven't seen very many people complaining about the video camera and video playback issues so I have remained quiet, assuming there would be a fix on the horizon and that maybe this particular issue was just not very important to the majority of my fellow users. Please advise on any possible fixes or with any information or service I could provide to help make this AWESOME project even better than it already is.
I have been on the main thread for this project everyday for around 2 weeks now, but have not found my answer. I have only seen a few people post about this but did not see anyone get an answer. I apologize if I missed something that was already posted. I did search as well as I could for a solution.
I am NOT a great developer but I AM very good with all the technical stuff and can follow directions fairly well. (I THINK!! ) This video camera problem is the ONLY problem I am having with this rom, other than the loss of 4G, which I could really care less about at this point. I just clocked my 3G after installing 0.3.0 at almost 2Mb !!! That is the fastest 3G I have ever seen in my area!! ) Thanks again for this great rom !
AFAIK video recording is still a no-go. Has been for me atleast, I haven't flashed to the latest Beta yet though, im charging up now for it actually. Ive got no issues with video playback using a third party software and I use it regularly. Sure its only a matter of time until Joker gets the few remaining kinks worked out.

Roger that and agreed!! Joker is THE MAN and he has not left us hanging yet so I can wait!! I am currently on the latest beta, 0.3.0 and it is nearly flawless IMO except of course for the video cam and video playback issues, and some minor quirks here and there which are to be expected. I cant wait to see whats next!
Thanks a lot for your reply!
i read on the main thread some one say videocam illusion app works, its a little choppy but works..

anything new?
Sorry it has taken me so long to answer, but in case you don't already know, A LOT has changed in terms of getting the camera working correctly in the builds I am using. Right now I am using a MIUI port by TheBill and Spleef which is based off of Joker's CM9 work, and it is AWESOME! VERY smooth, and I have video recording AND playback, by using Videocam Illusion app for recording and MX Video player for playback in the SOFTWARE render mode. It works very well!
Joker seems to be making MASSIVE strides forward in getting CM9 perfect for the Photon. It is definitely worth the time and effort to follow his work and to flash its' results on the phone as they become available. He just announced that he may have cracked the proprietary code issues plaguing development of the portion of his CM9 responsible for 2d accel and video, which we have all been having issues with.
Cant wait to see whats next!!
Video recording
Hi guys any update on the Video recording issue that was present ?
I also have the same issue. Have tried the videocam illusion but i think it works well in 640X480 resolution only, if i increase the resolution there is a significant lag.
Other than the video camera all other things works great.
I keep seeing everyone say video cam illusion works but whenever I use it I can view the video immediately after I record it, but after that how do you view it? I go to the video camera illusion folder but the videos all show up as text files.

I almost do not dare to askhere, but I'll give it a swing nevertheless . . .
Anyone else exprienced problems with their cameras(s) recently (after latest Nokia/Google updates?) - ( cam only producing green faulty image after lengthy wait.)
I have the builtin Nokia Cam app, and the cstark27 PXv4.1.1
I love the CStark version even if slow-mo crashes the app - but it's just so much better than Nokias own meager attempt.
But recently, both apps starts failing, it doesn't take pictures, when button pressed. No sound made but it also doesn't crash.
However, after some time a faulty image is produced, with nothing but the sad dark green color.
Phone is not rooted. And it's not even a Pixel. It's only a Nokia 7 Plus - but in the name of Greta Thunberg I try to save the globe by making do with old and less.
Sorry for bothering here with my non-Pixel device, but maybe one of you have a suggestion?
Is my hardware bad or IS it the recent updates?
Can it be fixed?
Thanks.
