Front camera will not work con cm9 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all
My front camera will not work . I'm using cm9. I'm tempted to go back to stock or wait for cm10 (I'm not sure if cm10 will fix this) . Is there a custom mod that the front camera will work. I need to know BC I use it a lot for video conference.
Thanks
Andre

Need an ICS AOSP/KP rom with 100% working camera

Hi fellas ,
I'm a new galaxy S2 user..
I want a Rom which should be CM9 or AOKP or AOSP based and camera and video recorder should work flawlessly...
Samsung roms are welcome too if they look like stock AOSP...
thnks all in advance..

You seem to know how to get around so I suggest flashing the latest CM9 nightly For me (and almost everyone ) it works without any probs
I'm using a ROM compiled from the source by a developer here based in the latest google official source (4.0.4) with latest cm9 kernel 3.0.28 wich make the phone FULLY FUNCTIONAL, Check it out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604366
also watch my video in my signature where shows how the roms works.
Right now I'm on hydrogen 14.04 rom,
Its latest AOKP Based,
Everything works except autofocus in main camera and led in video camera...
Will try CM nightly soon

Yeah but without Notification toggles and customizable goodies, i don't really think that it'll suit me

Even being Lazy i can Live without toggles, i rather a clean aosp experience
I suggest ICS Resurrection Remix Pro, amazing rom highly suggest it, it doesnt have toggles to worry about, just base AOKP goodness
Bro Hydrog3n is also AOKP based and moreover , i tried the camera update from westcrip's page and it didn't came to any use ....
Same problems there too just pinch zoom added in UI
Does the LED in camera works for you ?
And what about autofocus without macro mode on ?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
The camera drivers for the SGS2 are proprietary which makes it more difficult for devs building from AOSP to get features working with the non-Touchwiz camera app, these issues exist in all AOSP based ROMs for the moment, I'm sure there are devs working on it but it may be quite a while before it works as well as it does on Samsung ROMs for obvious reasons. If you want flawless camera you are more likely to find it on Samsung stock at least in the short term.
But my camera works just fine on cm9

Working and working without bugs are 2 different things, there are still issues with the CM9 camera, and since the OP wanted flawless, I wouldn't call it that at the moment.

Yeah he's absolutely correct...
I've wiped the camera data and video LED started working, but autofocus really needs fixture...
BTW- what is proprietary??
Is it itbsomething that can't be modified or what ?

New JB 4.2 Camera and Gallery with Photosphere

This is the new JB 4.2 camera and gallery with Photosphere (patched version from Android Police).
I tried it with ICSROM, and it worked OK. The camera works for 5-10 pics before FC.
I couldn't get Photosphere to work without FC.
Might work better with other ROMs.
Anyway, I thought some of you might like to play with it.
Install
Nandroid backup
Flash with CWM
can use in other devices like razr ?

I know it is a bit off topic, but it concerns the same leak so I hope it's OK to ask here. Has anyone managed to get the 4.2 keyboard working? I've flashed the 4.2 keyboard zip a few times, it says that it was successful, but when I go to settings/language and input it isn't there. I'm running MIUI JB by Th3Bill. Thanks in advance.
It kind of runs on the ics leak based rooms - crashes after a few words so its unusable...

Try HWA CM10 builds. BTW someone needs to update those, they worked great just outdated CM versions now.
I had the 4.2 keyboard working on EPinter's CM10 (not sure which date) Used for about a day and went back to SwiftKey. Hopefully, they release their 'Flow' which looks more promising than 4.2 keyboard and Swype.
Edit: the one I tried was incomplete 4.2 keyboard that Google requested be taken down. The "swype" like trail was grey and the whole thing looked like a beta preview.

None right now until kernel development is done
ICSROM version "ICSROM - an AOSPish mod for Atrix [v1.4.5][21 Nov 2012]" photosphere mode crashed after alignment.
This build is still full of bugs may be in future it may become better,
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I think Photosphere FC's is because of Atrix doesn't have a gyro and Nexus' do. Is it true?

good camera app?

hey i upgraded the atrix to the 4.1.2 of epinter ( tried aokp for a while, now trying this. i think that in the next week ill change some roms untill i find the best rom) after more then a year with the motoblur(i hate motorola, really), and now my atrix is pretty awesome. though i dont have a camera app ( not sure why), i downloaded some free camre apps but they are working as shi*. is there any good camera app (maybe including video, but not have to) for free\paid? dont really need effectes just a good camera that can work.thanks

i only tried the AtrICS rom as an android 4.0+ rom and what i discovered was that the flasher is not timed correctly. It flashes before the pic is taken so the pic is dark though the flasher is on. And the flasher brightness was also low. aren't you having such problems? If not in my opinion best camera app for an ICS or newer rom is camera JB+. i flashed back to mrom because there were many issues, not only camera problems. And now the camera's flasher is timed correctly back again and the flasher brightness is also strong as before. So if you are not using an android 4.0+ ROM i would go for camera ICS+ or Pro capture
camera 360 for free
Camera 360 I can recommend for JB Roms

oh really? i can't actually make a purchase right now so maybe you can give it a shot :fingers-crossed:
there is a 4.2 modded camera app that must be flashed in CWM, it enables a lot of features not avaible by default in the devices, you should search it in apps and games(or development) in Android General, dude, that is the best camera app i used in my phone, but ya know, opinion is like an a**, each one have its own.
The Leaked ICS camera app is the best I have used, is it possible to port it over to another ROM (CM10)?
Actually I use Wondershare PowerCam it's free, no ads, nice effects, faster startup time and maybe a better picture quality against my paid Camera Zoom Fx!
Now, I'm going to test FxCamera and Cymera
I have tried a few camera apps as well but ultimately settled on camera zoom FX. It takes pretty nice shots without having to surf through a bunch of set up options. but it also has features you might use down the road. I'm more of a point and shoot type person so YMMV.

camera not working at all - xperia u

I was using cm10.1 with working camera on my xperia u, then aplied the front camera fix and didn't work. So I decided to flash stock ICS and now any camera works. this is driving me crazy, because if I flash back to cm10.1 the rear camera works again...
So my main problem is that front camera isn't working with the fix on cm10.1, but in ICS any of them.
Any ideas?
thank you in advance

Dude, I was facing the same problem. After flashing the ICS FTF, flash CM9 or SlimCM. At least your Rear Camera would work for sure, don't know about front
