i use MIUI 2.9.29
i cant use the video recording option in my phone
whenever i try to record something i get recording failed error
tried different apps for the camera but none of them worked
when i try to record on my front camera its ok but not on the rear
??
just checked something and it only happens when i record on full HD
anything below that works fine
why is this happening ?
Probably the rom .
jje
i would try that only i read a few threads of people who had the same problem and tried switching roms and still had this problem
i dont want to go through with the effort for nothing :/
updated to OMEGA ROM everything is working now
Related
so the story goes like this
i was on miui 2.9.29 which is the newest and was quite happy with it until i found out i cant record when i try to video record on 1920X1080
when i start recording it hangs for about 10 seconds then i get recording failed
so then i switched to Omega 27 and then the recording worked just fine, but theres too much lag on the dialer and contacts apps so i decided to give a go on RGUI MIUI V12
this rom is really really gr8, its faster and when i installed it i immediately checked if i could record HD and it worked, recorded just fine
after a day of using it i tried recording again and it started failing again
so i read a couple of threads saying that a faster microsd card is needed to record FullHD videos, even though i was trying to record straight to the phones memory, i didnt even have an extranal card on it and to be honest didnt really needed it
but since its not that expensive i decided to give it a go, i just bought a new Sandisk microsd card 8GB class 6, which is supposed to be fast enough for this procedure
i plugged it in and tried recording, but still i get recording failed!, so what else could be the problem ????
UNBELIEVABLE
issue solved!
stupid siyah kernel was the problem!
come to think of it i always used siyah but it does not came with the rom, thats why it worked when i first tried it and later on after i flashed siyah like i usually do, it stopped working
at the moment its working gr8, on both the sdcard and the internal card
il keep you posted if it gives me **** again
hi guys, this may have been better in the development forum, but because I don't post on xda, I cannot post a reply there.
I'm having an issue with the camera on my Evo 3D GSM, specifically with recording videos. Taking stills is perfect.
Whenever I try to shoot video, the camera app crashes and the phone restarts. In 720p, this is almost instant, whereas in 480p it will record for around a minute normally. Now and then, it will record, but normally the video is glitchy, and often displays "this video cannot be played" before the end, even when it does record fine, which is rarely.
My first thought was that it may be an issue with the SD card. I tried with a class 10 16GB and still had the same problem. I also tried flashing various ROMs (JB, ICS) and all of them have the same issue. I also tried clearing the data and cache for the gallery app, and trying a 3rd party camera app which acted in the same way.
I thought maybe it was an issue with my device, but the camera works fine on sense based ROMs. AOSP 4.2 by helicopter88 will record in 480p just fine. CM10/10.1 record 480p for normally up to a minute, AOKP crashes both on 480 and 720. I also thought that it want an isne with the ROMs, but no one else using the ROMs (Disarmed Toaster, Gangnam Style and helicopter88's stuff) has reported the same issue.
any advice or suggestions from more experienced Android users is appreciated. ask if you need more information. thanks
Some evo's have more problems with the camera then others. I for one was somehow lucky enough to get a phone that has zero recording issues. Some people have scanline problems. You mentioned that Sense based roms work. The Buttered Toast kernel has a fix for the camera on AOSP/AOKP, so flashing that kernel might help. I don't know if it will also fix CM roms or not, but its worth a try?
i have the same problem with all the roms i have installed (Liquidsmooth,Slimrom, carbon,PA, all lates build). when i want to record video it seems distorted, kind of a stretch effect, it just happend when recording video, also im not able to record on the vine app. is there a way to fix this?
Camera problem with all roms not true .
Your question has been posted multiple times . Forum rules require you to search before posting .
Google <<< I9300 your search terms > xda
i searched, so its a CM 10.2 problem? and i cant fix it?
edit: got the fix for the stock camera, but vine and instagram still look stretch
Try out cm10.1 camera apk
basically I got a second hand samsung galaxy s2 recently.
Everytime I load it up it says camera fail.
I can't use instagram or snapchat.
When I make a video or a non video call on skype it cuts out straight away.
However I can record and send videos on skype (so assumably the front camera is ok?)
is there anyway to set the instagram/snapchat cameras to front camera so that I can use them the same way that the skype video works.
I am running cyanogen mod 10.2
issue was present before rooting.

try camera in stock ROM .. if it works... problem is in ROM.... then factory reset your phone and test again..if still didn't work try different kernel .. ask from OP thread of CM 10.2

then you better take it to the samsung care.. may be camera module have problems...
otherwise check again after CHANGING ROM...
So recently my S3 i9300's camera and speakers (front and back) broke for unknown reasons - maybe because it fell down?
Now my problem is that, someone told me that a broken cam and speaker will not cause any problem in the software side (except cam which will cause an error) but the problem is that eventhough its on the hardware side, my phone does not, cannot play online streaming videos through FB or Youtube or any online streaming site/app, and it also does not play mp3 music as when I try to play anything using any music app, an error saying that the app has stopped.
The good thing is that I am able to play videos of mp4 or avi format that is SAVED on my sd card using mx player app.
My question is, do you think it has something to do with the motherboard of the phone that causes the phone to not play mp3 or stream videos online?
Repairing the mother board is very costly so I am worried it might be the cause.
Any idea whats wrong with my phone?
Please, I need help to soothe out my worries...
Thank you and may God bless your helpful soul.
And it seems like my front speakers dont work too causing my phones calls to drop and when trying to call through viber app or Facebook messenger app, it wont work and the call just drops... Help

ok so it's probably hardware related if you search on Google there are loads of tutorials/videos on how to repair your phone also check out eBay for any spare parts you might need. This all depends of course on how good you are at repairs good luck ☺
Have you tried to reinstall a Stock with Odin? I had last week a similar problem and I had reinstall the StockRom for S3 and it worked again. After it works I had switched back to my favorite ROM ArchiDroid and all works properly.
What firmware did you use? Can you send me a link?
I have tried to flash stock 4.3 firmware with odin but it just made my phone LAG A LOT AND REBOOT A ALOT TOO... I dont know whats the problemm... Maybe I have a different s3 model and I have flashed an i9300 firmware on it that made the cam and speakers to not work??
Help
So I have a S3 and I am totally not sure if its the original I9300 or SHW M440S... I have flashed stock I9300 4.3 firmware and the result was a laggy firmware and my phone kept rebooting. I wasnt the first to own this phone, my uncle did and he said he just flashed the old i9300 4.3 firmware and the problem has occured which is a broken camera (cant connect to camera), not working speakers and headphone jack and mic...
Normally I would just get it fixed but.. Because of the broken cam, speakers and mic, my youtube or any online streaming videos does not load and mp3 musics dont play as the player apps force close when i press play...
Again, a broken hardware does not affect the software so I am not sure if it is really the hardware or I just flashed the wrong kernel on the wrong phone.
Has anyone ever tried to flash a I9300 4.3 official firmware on a S3 SHW M440S?
Did you get the same result as I did?
Do you recommend me to flash a SHW M440S firmware on my s3 just to check? Will it not brick my phone?
Please help me out..
Thanks and God Bless
