Hello everyone,
I have just installed the Camera 4.2 APK (in zip via the recovery) but I cannot use it ...
If I launch the stock version of the camera I have no problem to take a picture (except somtimes with the flash as this often result to a greeny picture.)
BUT
with the amazing 4.2 Camera it is simply impossible to take a picture as the screen is 'White'. The buttons (function button) are accessible (but it is not possible to take a picture even if i hear the confirmation sound)...
Anyone has an idea on how to solve this ? or maybe am i using the wrong 4.2 camera ?
Please note that the gallery associated to that 4.2 Camera is also not working ... I have to use the stock one ...
Thank you in advance for your help;
Kind regards,
Scarymover
Sorry for my poor english
I have same prob and so do others. We just may not be able to use it. Camcorder doesn't work either. That's why I came back to gb though I love Epinters rom. Only app that's somewhat okay for video is videocam illusion.

Epinter doesn't have the Motorola drivers. I doubt there is going to be a fix for that.
Atrix seems to be bad from bad..... I don't want to change my phone I have bought 3 months ago... But as from now I'm really frustrated by this motofail device! Pffffff

Hi, I've been using a number of ics roms since it was released and am currently on wanam v 12. I was wondering if anyone else has had a very slow response from the stock camera since moving to ics, never had any problems with gingerbread. The camera takes a picture normally but takes several seconds to finally respond and able to take another picture. Any advice?

Probably not the advice you're looking for, but try miui rom, specifically cmiui. The camera is really nippy on that one.
It may be a CM9 camera apk that's installed in cmiui. You could see if you could track down the apk on its own if you don't want to flash another rom.
And I know what you mean, every ics rom has given me bad lag with taking pics.

The GS2 doesn't have zero-shutter lag, but I am not experiencing a few seconds worth of lag as you are.
Try clearing data in App Info, which will hopefully fix your issue.
Try alternative cameras on the Play Store, namely Camera ICS.
Report back and tell me if that fixes anything.
Hey thanks for the advice! I cleared data on the app and is way faster now.

after rooting my S3, the camera seems to crash ALOT and i particularly bought the S3 for its amazing camera.
it bugs the hell out of me.
im using AOKP build 5. and still the camera has been crashing alot unexpectedly and wont be fixed until i reboot the device.
i like my S3 rooted and customized to my preference.
is there a way to fix the camera crashing issue? another custom ROM? or an individual main and basic system camera app that doesnt crash?
or the only way is to UNROOT my device, which would be my very last solution.
what should i do?
please advice

If you bought the S3 for its amazing camera, why are you on AOKP? Every AOSP-based ROM has a not-so-amazing camera, when compared to the stock camera, of course, and AOKP is no exception.
Please change the title of the thread. It's misleading. Camera does not crash on rooting the phone. Incorrectly flashing a ROM with a not-so-amazing camera does.
If it's the camera you want, go back to stock and enjoy!

Does rooting but keeping the stock ROM affect the camera in any way?
Thanks

None whatsoever, unless you go in and mess with the camera files.

I´m using the CM10 from epinter and it really is a nice ROM but this issue is killing my patience.
The camera has an enormous LAG to take photos. Anybody else have this issue? Is there anything I can do to resolve it?
Have you tried using a different camera app (i.e. FxCamera) to see if the same problem exists? That will at least cutout a few variables.
I had that issue in earlier versions of the ROM, but it got better over time. I think it's related to missing HWA. Try using camera 360, that's what I used.

Try Re-flashing the latest gapps from epinter's website. It worked for me.

It´s better... but...
Thank you all...
I used all suggestions you guys made and also installed the 1.3 Ghz overclock Kernel and the camera is better now but, when I try to use the Lapse It app the camera still LAG...
I´ve tried the CM9 MROM from mmontuori and the camera is very nice with it, but there are many bugs and the battery draim does not allows me to keep using it.
If you guys knows any other CM9/CM10 ROM with no camera LAG, please tell me.
Bests Regards!
Hello XDA. This ROM (rootbox 3.9.1) is supposed to be stable, but when I turn on flash or automatic flash and I touch to focus then shoot, the camera app lags and force closes (and doesn't take the picture). This is annoying in so many ways, and makes it virtually impossible for me to take pictures in low light. Please help me address this issue for it is killing me and I don't feel like downloading a whole new ROM, flashing it and reorganizing all my settings all over again just to fix this issue. I also had this issue with CM10.1 (but that was normal, cause it is a nightly).
Anybody else have this issue? And possibly a fix?
Thanks in advance.
Also: inb4 "search the official root box thread". I did, and nobody seems to have this issue.

As far as I know this issue was fixed a couple of days ago in the CM Nightlies so maybe the Vanilla Rootbox base hasn't been updated yet or you aren't using their latest update.

Didn't work. what version of this aosp camera are you using? And with what ROM? I got the latest version. And it still crashes.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Actually I've found a way to bypass this problem. If I turn on the volume key to take pictures function, autofocus with flash on and take the picture with the volume key, it doesn't crash. I guess I'll just have to live with it like this for now, oh well.
OK now how do I close this thread? Or there's no such thing? Can any mod or janitor or whatever help me out here? I'm new here

I have a note2 running paranoid Android RC1 and the camera seems terrible while shooting. Specially during video mode, the image seems warped while filming but on playback all is fine. Also, I miss the ability to touch the screen and have it refocus at my will like in touchwiz. Is it just me or are others experiencing this as well? I love the ROM, just want a better camera I guess. Please don't tell me to download focal. Tried it and it was not working properly on our phone for me.
Thanks in advance.
