Camera only works on certain ROM's - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I've been putting a bunch of ROM's on my friends note but I always notice that the camera rarely works. For example he's currently on "PARANOIDANDROID UNOFFICIAL" and I don't see that there's supposed to be a problem with the camera but whenever we try to launch it, it force closes or when it does stay on it cant take the picture. Also noticed that it only happens with AOSP camera app.
Is this a known problem or is there something wrong with his phone?
Thanks

Never heard of this

Maybe try reinstalling because this has never happened to me

Been happening to me yesterday and today. I turned my phone off and back on (only cuz it wouldnt play ANY youtube videos) earlier today and it doesnt seem to lag at all anymore. Dunno if it'll help, but worth a try.

[Q]Music suddenly stops playing

A lot of times when I'm listening to music and the screen is off, the music stops playing. Pressing the headset button does not resume the music, I have to turn on the screen and press the play button.
I had this problem on KE7 as well as I have it on KF2, my phone is rooted, currently I use PowerAMP, but if I can remember correctly, I've encountered the issue using Doubletwist as well. I even tried hard resetting, but the issue persists (I didn't really start from scratch but rather restored my user apps from a Titanium Backup).
Before I go through the tiresome task of uninstalling all the apps and installing them back one by one, I decided to ask for your help. Maybe somebody already managed to resolve a similar issue...
Settings> Motion> disable it... It may be because of the motion sensors... If you tilt the phone in a certain angle, the music stops playing...Just try, if it didn't work, then there is a problem...
This seemed to be happening to me when using PlayerPro. However, I had the trial and paid for versions installed, and it seemed to be the trial version doing this. Switching to the paid for version stopped the issue.
Could PowerAmp be behaving the same?

I have bought the full version, so it can't be this. The motion theory is interesting, but the phone was sitting on my desk when it happened today. Will try disabling it anyway.
Setting motion control to off did not help either. ;(

Hey man, im experiencing the same problem.
Glad to hear im not the only one. Ill be following this thread for answers. Im using PowerAmp as well.
Well, nice to hear I'm not alone.
I will try using doubletwist for a day or two, to see if it's a PowerAmp thing. But if memory serves me well, I already expirienced the same issue before buying PowerAMP.

Just came across this thread:
http://powerampapp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1274
Interestingly somebody mentions Google Listen as the culprit. I do use it a lot. Will try removing it and report back. BTW: Pocket Casts is free today on Amazon Appstore!
Freezing Google Listen defenitely helps.
I'm having the same problem, both with the stock player, and BBC iPlayer.
I'm also using Google Listen... so it'll be a shame if it's that which causes the problem.
I've just checked my Listen settings: it's set to check for new updates once a day, but I've had the players stop more than once in one day. I also had 'send anon feedback' switched on. I've turned that off.
I'd really like to hear if it's the confirmed culprit (and how to remove or freeze it) - cheers
I've also heard the problem could be when the phone is switching between 2G and 3G mode: as I'm in a basement office, I have poor signal quality, so there's a chance that's to blame...?
Well I use Google listen on my nexus one for a year now, and it never shows up in my apps list using battery, nor does it ever appear in system panel lust using no CPU. Its been just fine.
I've found the music is stopping when I get Gmail messages (though not every time)... so it's one of my Gamil widgets, the Status bar (though I have notifications turned off) or the Social Hub.
Once I've backed up all my data I'm going to do a Factory Reset
Update:
I've done a factory reset, that didn't stop it.
I've removed the Gmail widget, that didn't stop it.
I've gotten a brand new replacement phone, that didn't stop it.
I've tried a different music player (UberMusic), that didn't stop it.
Anyone got any more ideas?

Draw Something Force Closes

Does Draw Something FC on anyone else whenever you try to start the app?

FC on me too!.
Are you stock or rooted/rom'ed?
I rooted and rom'ed my tab using Galaxian Soup AOSP. Draw Something takes a couple seconds to load but i have not seen it FC yet.
Might be your root/OC. Works perfectly on my stock i957.
I tried it on my mobile earlier kept fc on on that so i got annoyed and deleted it.
Not impressed by it at all. seems iphone version much better.
i have stock kernel, just cwm and superuser.

[Q]Is Instagram compatible with the GS3? [Q]

Hi guys long time no question,
Sometimes when I try using Instagram on my phone it completely refuses to take a picture using Instagrams camera and bit will actually lock up my device. If the Flash is enabled the flash will come on, but will remain on and will refuse to go off for around 6 sconds at which point it goes off but the focus '[ ]' things stay on the screen.
I can turn off Instagrams camera and use the stock GS3 one and then crop it to the correct size, but this is really annoying, I'd much rather just use Instagrams camera!
I have been experiencing some issues with my phone, it's been locking up quite a bit and often restarts itself, so I was thinking possibly the problems are related. I'm in the process of getting this issue resolved with Samsung. I guess if Instagram works for everyone else it is just me with the issue, dayum!

The instagram camera is awful, just use the proper s3 camera I use it with instagram every day without any issues.

[Q] camera sometimes freeze

Hi folks,
I have a haipad i9300 mtk 6577 4 days ago the camera start to make trouble. Sometime just show black screen and after ask for a force close.
I tried to delete the old camera apk and installa brand new...I give to JB 4.2 camera a try to see if it works...nothing still the same. Black screen and after several touch ask for a force close. I guess is not an hardware problem because sometimes it works...what can I do?
I notice if I press several time and I force close then the camera app cannot connect to camera. This happen 4 or 5 times...then if I am very lucky the camera rebirth and start working again...It seems there is a kind of problem between the app camera and the camera hardware...because every camera app have the same issue, so maybe the problema is after...maybe some libs or something like that...any idea?
Odd update...I have a torchlight app with its widget. I notice the torchlight has the same issues of the camera. In fact it freezes and often I need to force close. The strange thing is if you turn on or turn off after few timers you can heard a kind of "click"...the same click you heard when you activate the camera...after that if you turn on the camera it is working. So I guess the torchlight and the camera are linked in some way. Of course I try to unistall the torchlight app...nothing the camera still not working.
Any ideas?
I'm not expect ,but
if something using start using camera (for example torch widget app) then other program cannot access to camera,so if program was not design for that case it will crash. (I know this as When I writing my app i spotted the same problem as You. ).
So i guess something using camera and that cause your problems.Try to find how many programs/services use camera and close all of them and then check/
That's my thought...in fact I'm pretty sure something is bothering the camera app...but...I did an hard reset, so a clean system, but the camera still freeze so I assume is not an application I installed. How can I check which application is accessing the camera?
