Miui camera problem - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi to everyone, im having some problems with miui camera, when i go to record camera it gets frozen and then i have an FC, anyone can help me?
Im using miui gb version.

Ask in Miui forums on their site. Much more likely to get answer/solution from someone who has/had a similar problem.

This is a common issue on the MIUI Roms,
2 options to rectify,
1) the thumpnails of your earlier Camera creating issiues just rename your DCIM folder,(DCIM-2 or somthing) and reboot.
2) use 'Camera ICS' from the market working without any issues,

Need help in solving camera problem

I am having this problem for a while now...my camera doesn't work.when i press the icon, camera application launches with the camera buttons and then with the small preview icon on the right side being black.The screen displays what is in front of the camera but the buttons are totally not functioning. If I wait for it, it then says "camera application not responding" then gives me the option to wait or force close.
-rebooting doesn't help
-clearing data doesn't help
-using another camera application (same result)
-The best solution that I came up with is reflashing ROM (wiping everything)
-if that doesnt work, reformatting SD card
sometimes it works..sometimes not
when fixed, it just runs for a couple of weeks then afterwards, the same thing happens again and I am getting tired of it.
So I would like to seek out your help now enlightened members of xda...please help me
PS..this happens on any kind of rom (oxygen and currently LEWA OS)
Anyone out there who can help me? anyone who experiences the same issues?
Do u have any kind of cell tracking application(like androidlost or something) installed on ur phone? Or any other app that uses camera?

Which ROM!?

The camera work on the official firmware? (V20E) When did you first notice this problem?
Typically, problems arise with the camera when changing kernel ... Try to flash the kernel from Franko

After Flashing Oxygen V2.6, this problem started after several days...was able to resolve thru reflashing rom wiping everything but after several days reoccured.
I am already using LEWAOS M7 and it happened to me twice now.

[GUIDE] How to get fully camera with deep sleep and 3rd party apps working on ICS ROM

Press THANKS button if this guide helps you.
Since we know that CM9 RC2 is too buggy, we are forced to use RC1 instead, until its fixed by Wayland.
This is just for you guys stop once for all asking about etas and other stuff anoying.
Please, after read this, dont make any question about camera, kernel updates or deep sleep.
Follow this and get the RC1 ROM from Maclaw working with 100% camera from RC2, but without its bugs like GPS and Bluetooth not working, SDEXT not recognized etc...
BEFORE you start flashing this, make sure you have enough space on system/app, because libs and camera app from RC2 are bigger than RC1's. Delete some ringtones you dont use or some apps. The same for kernel, the dev says about 4~5 MB free space, i recommend about 7MB, for kernel and camera app. (delete the CMWallpapers apk, it has 7,04MB, and im sure you dont use it)
1st, download Maclaw's CM9 RC1 ROM
DOWNLOAD
If you already have it, skip this step, if you dont, make a full wipe then flash it. Reboot your phone.
2nd, download Nims Kernel 2.1 with Camera app and libs fully fixed from RC2
DOWNLOAD
You don't need to mount this, just flash it. After flash, reboot your phone. If everything was right, the screen "Updating/Starting Apps" should appear. When the system starts, test the Camera app, it should start normally, if you get some FC screen, or "Cannot conect the camera" message, try to re-open the app. This message will appear sometimes, even in 3rd party apps, like Instagram, but is just you re-open it.
3rd, download the lastest Nims Kernel available
DOWNLOAD version 2.2.1 for ICS ROM
This ZIPs files are from this thread, i just put them together for make it easier for you guys.
I'm not responsable if it bricks your phone.
For me and a lot of people it works.
this was what I needed, now I'll change to ics again and finally I definitely thank you very much
Nice tip, but wrong section

If you follow this guide exactly as you put it, you will end in a bootloop just like me.Explain better
Very good work
Well just tried all the steps above but sadly it isn't working .
After I flashed nim's 2.1 kernel the phone boot into system upgrading screen and stuck there , I did a restart and the phone got stuck on a boot loop.
Flashing nim's 2.2 kernel after that didn't helped either ..
Please explain the procedure in more details.
Thanks Devs!

You might do something wrong...
you dont need to mount system for flashing this zips....
Try to make a full wipe and flash RC1 again, reboot as normal. After that flash cam app and libs with nims kernel 2.1. Reboot again.
Then flash Nims kernel 2.2
Just for guarantee, after you wipe install RC1, delete somethings you dont use in system/app, because cam app is biggest than RC1's.
Some screens of this working properly
Nice tips, thanks. Can I ask you a question??? Does this ROM drains battery much??? The last time I use it, it drains like hell. I need to know if it still drains battery so I can apply your tips
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
Well got this thing working , Thanks @jmendes.
Edit : After using this ROM for a while I found out that deep sleep isn't working .. ( google location was off )
For me deep sleep works until i take some 5 pics... after that the camera stops and i need to re-open it. Then deep sleep sucks as well :c

ROM stays unchanged. If you had use RC1 when it was out, it keeps the same way. Obviously, battery will drain faster than CM7, but it just need some adjustments by the devs, hope itll fixed in Wayland's release
It might even "work" (not sure if the need for closing and re-opening the camera app several times means fully working...) but I doubt the quality of the pictures will be as good as in a GB based ROM.
For me or anyone who uses the camera sometimes and don't want crappy quality pictures, any ICS or JB ROM shouldn't be considered for now. In fact, without OpenMax drivers I guess we'll never see camera working properly on Galaxy Ace running ICS and JB

Jesus Christ! Fully working for our situation means a app who opens and take a photo with auto focus, flash working properly, with all configurations available with a gallery without bugs AND apps 3rd party accessing camera drivers! It's known that it has a lot of bugs, but its better than an app that just take pictures and break deep sleep resource. Everybody knows that OpenMax drivers wont be release for us, and a camcoder wont be available either, bbut they are really working hard to give us a decent camera. The quality is the same on GB. As you said, "shouldnt be considered for now" so dont use it. If you think it's not worth it, stay with your 2.3 version.

Hmm, you said that flash is working properly ... is the LED working for flashlight apps as well in this ROM ? Last time I tested CM9, it wasn't working and flashlight is very very useful, can't live without it. If yes, I'll try it.
By "camera working properly" I meant taking photos with good quality, and auto-focus and flash both working. That is enough. I did'nt say "fully working".

Go until Wayland's CM9 topic and you will see that for this he will need to put a modified app for flashlight working. But still works.
And yes, the quality keeps as in GB. With auto focus, flash and cam modes working rightly

[Q] Can't Connect to Camera! NEED HELP FAST

I am the proud owner of a SGS3
But I'm not the biggest fan of touchwiz and I love everything about 4.2!
So like many others, I flash a 4.2 custom ROM. AOKP 4.2 build 2, to be exact.
After flashing, I loved it. Everything about it was just perfect. It was fast, light, easy to use, and FAST! But then I go to take a picture. And boom.
"Can't Connect to Camera"
I had no idea what to do, so I did the first thing that comes to mind. reboot. But sadly, this solved nothing. So of course I re-flash my touchwiz ROM to see if the ROM was the problem. And the Touchwiz camera worked perfectly. Later on when I had time, I tested it out again, and had the same problem. So I downloaded a camera app, and same thing. I even flashed a different Camera.zip for God's sake! I've searched for the past week for fixes and every one I tried just failed! So now I'm really done with Touchwiz and want to customize the look and feel of my phone (which is one of the reasons I like AOKP!)
It seems that my camera only works on Touchwiz ROMs! :crying:
I also tried another ROM this time running 4.1.2 thinking maybe it was just a bug in 4.2! But sadly, the same error message.
I am open to ANY ideas right now and would be very thankful for some replys.
I NEED TO GET OFF OF TOUCHWIZ AND BACK TO 4.2!
Thank you as always!
EDIT: So I think I figured out the problem. I was flashing a 4.2 camera .zip file and i guess it was messing up the permissions. So I disabled it. Now it is working perfectly so far. Yesterday i switched over to a 4.1.2 ROM hoping it would fix it and so then i flashed this 4.2 camera and then after about a day of use, it messed up the permissions.
So to fix it if anyone is have that problem, disable the camera app you flashed, reboot into recovery, ADVANCED - FIX PERMISSIONS
all done.

If I uninstall gallery apk which is including camera aaplication, how I will make a shoot ?
hye
actually,what application did you dissable?from the touchwiz or the custom rom? :laugh:
well, it works for me, thanks a lot dude.
This is a file permissions problem, between the camera and the gallery apps. It is fixable, I had the ability to force a 'fix permissions on boot' in init.d, but are various ways to do it.

[Q] Camera Problem! URGENT!

Hello Guys.
So it all started with me, flashing my first custom rom, the SamsungS4CHD something like that..
It worked fine.. tho it did have a few bugs. At first it didn't recognize my SIM Card.
Secondly, and MAINLY, i noticed that the camera was dark greenish.. and the moment i pressed snap.
Boom, Hanged. And i had to force close it, and then when I restarted, I got the error- Can't Connect to Camera.
No third party apps did the trick, so I flashed the TurboHD Rom and it worked flawlessly.
Then I wanted to try Fly116, and I did, and I was greeted with the same problem.
It struck me that the s4 rom and the fly116 both had 13 mp cameras while the turbohd has an 8mp camera.
Please help me out, this bug is killing me :/
I've searched and searched with no luck..
Reply soon guys..

All those things are very strange. Maybe try the uploads in another WiFi, perhaps the problem lies with network upload.
If many strange things appear and even clean flash of different ROMs doesn't help, some people recommend to flash the stock ROM back and start from scratch, maybe in a different way than before.
That's the only senseful thing I can think of in your situation :/
