Hi
Can anyone else run the stock Camera app after the Jellybean update?
There's a yellow box around the shutter and when I go to take a photo the application crashes.
Other camera apps work fine!

I've been using it, and it works fine with me. Do you have any apps that may affect the camera? And was it working fine with ICS?
No extra apps, yes it did work in ICS.
I'm hoping someone with a working camera in JB can dump the firmware for me

I updated Insert Coin Rom to 3.0 and my camera hasnt worked since. updated tuesday, and only went to use my camera yesterday and discovered it freezes on opening. flashlight toggle in my notifications bar also causes system UI to crash.
switched to Anonorom this morning, factory reset, restored apps + data from Titanium Pro, same thing. camera and flashlight both crash my system UI.
which sucks cause previous IC rom was great.
any help would be awesome. otherwise i guess i'm either flashing rom's or doing a full factory reset and restoring manually i guess..

First step is always factory reset .
Followed by flash stock firmware .

Also started having this issue last week, more than a month since I got my 4.1.2 OTA from T-mobile.
From what I experienced, both incidents when I was out, were in low light, and after I enabled low light mode within the camera controls.
There would be a freeze, then app crash returning to the homescreen.
There doesn't seem to be a lot of info on this, and I'd really like to know what is causing it.
I have a feeling it is a setting in the touchwiz camera... because other camera apps (vignette, eyeem) launch the camera fine and without issue.

I started getting the freeze issue a few weeks back. I removed the SD card and tried the phone without it and it was fine again. Wiped the SD card and put it back in and all is working again. Hope this helps some of you.

Custom Rom: TripnMIUI 1.0 Final
Independent control of flash function not working on device. Attempted to install a third party camera app "camera 360". App notifies "sorry your cell phone has no flashing" when flash option is selected.
Utilizing MIUI camera to configure flash provides two options. Auto and On. Yet neither work.
Does anyone have any information or a possible solution?
Thanks for reading.

try vignette for flash.
vignette isn't working. with the MIUI camera the dev's instructions are to switch off full screen due to some glitch that causes no picture. when i load this camera application i receive the same glitch, can not see picture what so ever.
i explored the settings in the app and there is no appropriate selection to be able to switch as i would with the MIUI camera. it seems this app isn't compatible with the rom.
I use the LED light app and just leave the light on while I take a pic >.>...
LED app like Torch? to activate the camera flash like an independent flash light?
Tried Torch, the app crashed. So I uninstalled it. Currently searching the market to see if anything is going to be compatible here. There must be some sort of fix as this flash problem wasnt listed in the dev's build release notes.
I use this https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.picolyl.led_light
even has a widget I put on my desktop... walk around my house at night like this...
i was hoping that would work
but it didn't
app installs. app loads. when i turn on the flash, nothing happens
leads me to assume there has to be a patch, because again, it must be rom related
Vignette seems to work for me. I have it set to auto flash and it comes on when I touch the screen.
Or is the point that you would rather use the miui camera?
Sorry if I misunderstood
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
when i start up Vignette i have absolutely no picture. just distorted colored stripes across the screen.
the miui camera was indicated as being faulty in full screen mode. within the release notes there were instructions to open the settings within MIUI camera and change off of full screen to resolve the picture issue.
as per developers ROM documentation:
Known bugs:
- Phone reboots when you press exit in Root Explorer (not included)
- MIUI camera has messed up screen (fix this by going into miui cam settings and turn off "Full screen"
that issue is the exact same thing that I am experiencing in Vignette. with MIUI camera i was able to make the appropriate change and restore full picture.
with Vignette no option presents itself to enable me to do this. i dont necessarily care which app i use to take pictures as long as i am able to operate the flash and sustain full camera functionality.
both miui camera the stock camera are not functioning with flash for me. i have set to automatic within miui camera and even still the flash fails to initiate.
even if i switch to "ON" within MIUI camera that doesn't work either. the stock camera app has no flash control option in its settings. and so far the third party apps i've tried such as "camera 360" resulted in a message saying my phone doesn't have flash. and Vignette was not resolving picture. i was unable to locate a respective setting similar to that of MIUI camera to initiate a functional view. therefore was forced to uninstall
Attached a temporary solution
Slightly improved brightness over my original: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996973
I'm working on flashlight fix to work with vignette. Hopefully Trip will fix it too in next release
nice thanks. would this apk just manually be pushed through ADB to sytem/apps? or do i have the option to install straight from SD?
im going to go ahead and try this out. thanks again.
side note: is it correct to assume a pending update for this build considering it was released as a "final version" it would be nice to see some fixes implemented to further stability and full functionality.
another issue ive experienced over the past couple days back and forth between this rom is particularly when files are in midst of being transferred to sd card. but not limited to. the phone seems to force reboot. and this does not cease. case in point. i initiated sd mounting and upon hitting confirm, phone went into power cycle.
update: *Torch works perfect. I hit thanks

I have bought the depreciated version and even though it works great on latest MIUI, flash still doesn't work.
so .... like you said .... depreciated?
turns out it doesn't work after all. wonderful
i can understand the picture part working, unlike the demo. but if flash doesn't work. it doesn't turn out to be an all in one solution. flash is the issue here. i can utilize either miui or even stock camera for the pictures. its the flash that is giving complications.

Use the torch app with it
i guess the torch app will suffice. its going to have to because every app ive tried doesn't recognize the flash function. its a smart work around.
i noticed an update pack released for the rom hopefully flash will be noted for a fix sometime in the future. thanks everyone

I don't think it worked with any roms did it? I don't even think it worked with stock
your right. it never worked. with anything.
although i must say i never tested it on 6.1.3 rom release. but with stock it was working for me. at least it would turn on
Ive moved to cMIUI rom lately, and after playing with the ICS Camera I have noticed that I can't capture pictures with the front camera, and some other features doesn't work either.. when trying to use the features the message "Unfortunately, Camera ICS has stopped".
Any one had the problem? or have a solution?
It's a rom-related problem. Maybe you flashed the latest experimental/nightly

It's a ROM problem. These are the options you can try:
1. You can try third-party camera apps in market
2. Flash the latest version of the Rom
3. Stay with the Rom and live with the problem
4. Flash another ROM. There are plenty good ROMs out there.

Problem with other camera
My problem is that , my stock camera apk(ICS) is working properly but it takes long time to take that snap.
I tried to install other camera applications but i found that ever application displays "INVERTED SCREEN" (When the Camera id ON).
After clicking on the button (to take the snap) it automatically reverts back and shows Correctly in the Gallery..
Pls Help...

Hi viewers, i recently got myself the C5 ULTRA E5553 and i'm loving this device especially of course the camera.
The stock camera works fine but once i install SNAPCHAT and start recording a video, the whole snapchat recording hangs and the screen turns black and gets stuck. Once i exit through the home button and clear the app, i open the stock camera app and it shows me "error, camera not available'. and then stock camera app and snapchat camera will not allow me to access the camera as seen on the images attached. Even diagnostics can't access the camera.
I have tried clearing data and force stop on the stock camera app but to no avail. I can only REBOOT the phone and both cameras will work again until i start recording front/back camera on snapchat and everything repeats.
I EVEN TRIED factory reset and i immediately installed snapchat as the first app.... as long as i try to record on snapchat, the camera will just freeze and crash.
I am from Singapore with the 5.0 lollipop. PLS HELP ME i want to be able to use snapchat on this phone

Thanks for the reply guys!!! I tried the link but like i said... i even start with a newly reset phone and install snapchat first... still having problems when recording
Have you tried updating to Lollipop 5.1? I've only recently started Snapchatting, but I have no issues, and I'm running Lollipop 5.1
If you don't receive OTA update notification then try to update through PC Companion or Sony Bridge for Mac

I tried the link but it didn't work, i have 6.93Gb of free space on my phone. It just came back from the repair store he has been restet but snapchat didn't work If you have any other sonlution, i will be gratefull
But somtimes it work one or two times before not when i restart my phone...
Easy solution
Had the same problem, got really frustrated as I tried every possible solution I know of with no avail what so ever.
Seems like a software problem with Snapchat explicitly, since camera app works just fine away from it. All you got to do is update to the latest version, which is 5.1.
Update might be a little bit big but its totally worth it as you can actually feel the better performance and battery life, and ofcourse fixing your Snapchat problem.
Hi, I encountered this after upgrading to 6.0. Service center replaced the camera but no luck, so they replaced the mainboard. Luckily, it was still under warranty.
Hi
I'm not able to use the primary camera... Just the front one show in every camera app
I did an hard reset with wipe and everything has been OK for a day.... This morning again the same issue and I didn't install any other camera app
Any idea?

It seems that i /m facing the same problem here. I'm running the AEROM v5 and out of the sudden the camera stopped working, the flash as well. Every camera app that i used only opens the front camera and i cant even use the LED light as a torch. I contacted the seller and suggested a factory reset , i did it with no success. i think that it might be a "missing driver". I do not know a lot apart from flashing roms, recovery etc. Trying to work it through.
Did you try to open the cover and check if the camera is connected properly at the board?
Sounds like hardware.. Any other experiencing this?
Sent from my JY-S3 using Tapatalk
It is a hardware matter , at least for me
I rooted my phone not long back (maybe like a month ago?). I put it back to stock firmware, relocked bootloader with flashtool, got all the new updates, everything was fine.
I then try to use snapchats front camera, and its extremely sluggish. So I use the standard sony camera app to see if it was snapchat, and the camera was working just fine.
When I use the camera sometimes, there are green lines accross the screen. I must of factory reset it like 10 times now? Tried using Xperia Companion, no luck
Also, the official camera app, when switching to record, it lags out completely, and just wont move for like 15 seconds, and then another 15 seconds.
I've tried contacting sony via web chat, and they told me it was a hardware issue. I was thinking the camera is fine in the stock app, so why is it doing it in third party apps like snapchat?
But then again, I am experiencing issues with the recording function in the official camera app.
I'm not sure if I didnt flash it correctly or something, or used a really bad rom?
I've reset it multiple times though. Can anyone suggest anything? I'm selling it soon due to a new phone and didnt want to list it with "camera is broke"
Many thanks.
Matthew
If they it's he issue, why dont just send to repair center? If you used a pc company then it should install right version.

I just don't see how it could be hardware? Unless I've dropped it badly which I haven't?
hello I have the same problem when using video recording, it freezes. When using other software like Camera HD, at the beginning I thought it was better, but 2 minutes later it freezes, and it s slow... Did you have the same problem on Lollipop ?
I'm on marshmallow mate. 6.0.1
32.2.A.0.253
But yeah, that's what I get
Me too, my phone was root too, I did unroot and relock the bootloader. Perhaps is it the root ? If you didn't have problems before maybe its a software issue
But wouldn't resetting it and everything fix the issue?
last thing to do is to rollback to lollipop and see if camera works
Hii Friends , This problem can be fixed easily. Will Post The Instructions Very Soon. Thank You!
