Have you tried any previous ROMS to see if the problem doesn't lie somewhere else?

So those two guys said that there cameras were working fine. So you can try those to ICS Roms. If not I suggest going back to stock.

Camera no longer works

My evo 3d gsm x515m's camera just stopped working a month or 2 ago. It doesnt show the force close pop-up when i open the camera app, it just shows the camera symbol and then goes back to where i opened the app. I've tried different roms, kernels, wipes, etc. and nothing has worked so far. I dont know if the ics PG86IMG may be the culprit? i dont wanna try radios until i have some advice on if it is a hardware issue or software. Help please!!

Are you on GB or ICS?
Apps/all/camera/clear cache, then try opening.
If on GB, try the lower resolution amaze cam if above doesn't work.
What ROM are you running? I am on Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 and the camera does not work. I get the same thing you are experiencing. I am going to flash the 1920x1080 Amaze camera, hopefully this fixes the issue.
Ive already tried the amaze camera and clearing the camera cache, ive restored to a stock backup even and nothing different. As of right now i am on miui, so i dont think the camera would work either way but it didnt work on stock 2.3.4

Well sounds to me like hardware. There is a ribbon where the camera plugs into the motherboard. You can try setting it in again, finding parts craigslist/ebay, or taking back for warranty

Camera is not working on CM

So I've been using CM since CM7. when I was flashing one of CM9 night versions, which has the problem of (unfortunately, Gallery has stopped), I thought it'll end up as soon as the next nightly will fix it.
I tried most of CM9 nightlies, the stable CM9, many CM10 nightlies and finally I'm on the stable CM10, still I have the camera problem. I've flashed it many times, odin it to stock and flash back to CM7/9/10, but it didn't work, the camera stopped working even in the stock version. I thought maybe the camera is broken but today the I reflashed CM10 and it worked, now it's back to same problem.
Any ideas folks?? Thanx and sorry for the long story

Try going to settings> manage apps> all> gallery> clear cache and reboot.

Almost. You need to run "su" before you run logcat when you do it with the terminal else it will only capture a crippled version of logcat because apps in Jelly Bean are restricted to only getting their own logcat unless they're root.
I've done it, the window keeps filling up with new sentences for two hours and didn't stop, I didn't actually know when to copy the logcat!!

[Q] LiquidSmooth ICS v1.5 MR3

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1879151
I can't post in the dev thread yet, but has anyone else had a problem with the camera function on this ROM? The camera has worked perfectly fine for about 3-4 weeks and all of a sudden it crashes every time I try to use the camera. Apps such as Instagram and Facebook also crash when trying to use the camera function also. Anyone encountered this problem? I would just reinstall the ROM again, but I don't want to lose apps, etc.

If anyone was wondering, I'm talking about the camera, not the camcorder. The camcorder/video doesn't work on this ROM, but the camera worked fine up until now. Any fixes?

[Q] Q&A CM11

Sorry if this thread already exists.
You have no idea how happy I am this ROM exists!! But I cannot get SMS working. I get FC's on every SMS app I try including Hangouts. Anybody else getting this and/or have a remedy? Thanks
I was about to post the same error here, I have an Amaze with Videotron, S-Off, Super CID, HBOOT-1.93.2222 (JuopunutBear), TWRP as a recovery.
I tried everything, I tried different Gapps, I also tried without installing Gapps, I tried sms apps from the Play Store and Hangouts too. The only thing I haven't tried is formatting my internal SD card. (it was a clean install, all formatted and cache cleared). I also tried switching to ART but I had the same problems.
Everytime I try to just open the sms apps, the app crashes. I managed to see the error once and it was something about SQL but it might be a misinterpretation from my part.
Calls, 4G and WiFi were all working perfectly too.
After some research on Google, I tried installing busybox, xposed framework and uninstalling Voice+, but nothing works. The basic messaging app just closes without any kind of message and other apps show that it stopped working.
(I tried the Evervolv rom 4.4 and SMS were working on that one, maybe it's a setting with my network type as I am on Videotron in Canada and it is using AWS, maybe a setting under *#*#4636*#*# ??)
I want to contribute and sen some log of that error, how can I do that? I am familiar with roms, kernels, etc but not that much with logs... I tried many roms before and never got that specific problem...
Thanks to anyone who can help with this issue!
It's not just you SMS simply doesn't work on this rom and I was surprised to see that no one else pointed this out in the original thread. The default Messaging app closes immediately when you try and open it. Other SMS apps also crash either immediately upon opening them, or when you try to send a message (hangouts & SMS Pro for example). This is the only thing keeping me from using this amazing rom as my DD.
I have the same exact problem with SMS- will try the evervolv 4.4 though was really looking forward to CM11
Edit: also didnt have any other problems with the rom except for the black boxes and the camera
Let's hope there is a way to fix it!
I would post the question in the official thread but I do not have enough posts to do so unfortunately
Heck I couldn't even try SMS due to the black box issue, that's why I didn't mention it in the original thread.
For those with the black box issue--are you using the correct gapps?
In olden days there were some issues with some google things not working, and people uninstalling the ones that came in gapps and downloading them fresh from the play store.
Have you gone into recovery and fixed permissions?
Again, in days of yore, this might straighten some things out.
Is it possible that black-boxing has something to do with CPU frequency, and is it possible to tweak up the speed through developer options and lose the boxes?
I haven't tried this rom yet, as I'm currently sticking with the stable(r) cm10.
Good luck.
anybody get the SMS working on this ROM so far?

The black box issue has nothing to do with GPU or CPU speeds. There are discussions on the dev threads. The issue affects other legacy devices on various KK based source builds, not just Amaze and CM. The consensus is this seems to be related to the default browser which has changed in KK. This would also explain why it effects other gapps too.

Not that I'm aware of.
Media Issues
The ROM is pretty good for the most part.
I just have this problem where Play Music gives this error, "Cannot play the music track you requested"
I clear my media storage and try to rescan my SD card but none of the apps work. They all crash.
Is there anyway to fix this?

Maybe app settings for the app and Erase App Data?

as the OP says and i quote that only non working things are
1. camera exposure
2. tethering
but as the thread goes ahead we read more prolems/bugs
May i ask what is the current status for bugs/not working and other issues and what has been fixed and any other stuff we should flash over the ROM like driver, may it be upoaded to the OP for ease as its reall hard to search for those things on mobile app. thank you and good luck.
Anyone else have issue disabling their microphone while in a call? I tried with both the speaker phone and regular handset mode, the "no mic" icon enables but my caller can still hear me. The Hold button seems to work fine though.
FYI, it took a while for the battery to figure itself out. I wiped the battery stats before flashing everything and the first few days I got a lot of jumping battery levels. I let it charge all the way down as much as I could then rebooted and did a full charge and rebooted again and then full charge again. That seemed to reset the battery level to the correct state.
I also , enabled Device/GPS only for the location detection other wise the google services at 50% or more battery.
I'm running the 2014-02-16 build, with the updated video drivers.

Since PAC uses the CM device tree for its source any issues with CM will also be evident in PAC. Until the CM devs are able to resolve the camera exposure issue it will exist in both ROMs.

Think about your question for a minute. Have you seen any recent posts in the CM dev thread indicating an update which solves this issue? If you had just taken a moment to look at the dev thread instead of posting this you would have answered your own question. It's not like the CM-11 thread is incredibly long, it's only 28 pages total. This post is just laziness on your part and an unnecessary waste of bandwidth.
is there any alternate app in the market, i tried couple of apps but nothing useful
@Odysseus1962
If I were to compile AOSP, which variant would you suggest for me to build?

GCam ports automatically closes on Pixel Experience Android 10

Guys, I've been searching around the new about this problem but it seems that I'm the only one who experienced this one. I have installed different ports from different developers but all of them have the same results. After giving permissions, the app closes automatically. How I do fix this? Can anyone help me?
Update: I just found out that all cameras, even Facebook's and Messenger's, won't work. Even the stock camera app.

try clearing cache & Dalvik cache and then dirty flashing the PE10 again.

it's a kernel issue, at least it was for me. I was trying sphinx 3.1 on xiaomi.eu 11.0.4.0 android Q but all camera's fc'd (after giving permissions). Reverting back to stock kernel (to be more precise i reflashed whole rom) fixed it for me
