[Q] Camera night mode gone - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if someone could give me an idea of what happened to my night mode on my Vibrant. I've got it running on cm10 with JB and when I use the camera, the night mode is no longer there as it was with the stock rom. I've put in an FFC on my Vibrant hence the need for a custom rom that supports one. Both cameras work great, except the night mode is no longer in the menu. That was what made up for this phone not having a flash!

[Q] Front facing camera: hardware or software problem?

Got the tab a week ago. The front facing camera was working fine, tried it again today and the color was all screwed up. Is this a hardware or software problem? The back camera still works fine. The picture attached was taken from the front camera.
I would think it is a software issue. Did you install any rom or photo software?
Nope. Havent installed any camera apps or messed with any settings.
If you have root, and you can try flashing a fresh rom.
I have exactly the same issue on my Nexus S. Back camera also works fine. I have stock 4.1.2. Never flashed anything else. Phone version is I9023XXKI1. I know it worked flawlessly for months in skype. Then it changed to this weird color mode for some calls and back without any apparent reason. Now it doesn't change anymore. It just stays this way. I tried to change many settings, nothing helps. I'm also attaching image.
This is the only post I found that seems to be the same as my problem. The hardware is different (well, they are both from Samsung) but result is the same.

Problems with accelerometer (won't work).

Bought this phone like a month ago and by the time I got home with it, I've already had everything I needed to install a new rom, so I installed and since day one I can't get this phone to work with auto-rotate or any other app that uses the accelerometer
I can't remember if it worked with the stock rom, but i'm sure that it didn't work with any of the roms that I used after. From lightning rom, than Sensation 1.6 and finally with Exynos (that I still uses).
I tried calibrating, tried new roms and kernels, never tried factory reset tho. Anyone knows what I can do to get this damn thing to work?
One interesting thing is that the Motion feature works, but that's it.
The motion features use the gyros only afaik. You can test them with Gyro 2D visualizer for example.
On your problem: flash a stock rom and kernel, then test the accelerometers.
If they don't work, send your phone in.

[Q] A question on stock camera app/flash mode/scene mode 'strangeness'.

How do folks,
Not an urgent matter. Noticed my stock camera app, when scene mode in camera settings is set to anything but 'Auto', i lose the ability to set the flash mode. White balance then also seems to become inactive in some scene modes.
This might be normal and I've never noticed before. Just worried my, otherwise successful, flash to 407 olleh rom, might have caused some quirkiness (I also at the time played with build prop to enable shutter sound off option).
Can anyone confirm they get the same behaviour on the stock camera app in 407 or stock rom?
Also, finally 24months O2 contract is up for my streak. I'm thinking Galaxy Note is the way to go but just wondering if I'll regret not going for the SIII 18 months down the line? Anyone got an opinion on that. IF I go for the note, should I stay with O2 or jump over to 3 (enticed by the all you can eat data).
Many Thanks

Some strange kind of problem i have with my camera
I want to know if other people have the same problem. My phones camera has no fill effect. The little lightning bolt icon is to turn on flashlight but on my phone it works as an auto flash effect instead, so it doesnt stay on. This is just for taking pictures, when I record video, the flashlight stays on and it works fine.
the flash works in automode or in fill flash mode or red eye re-duct if there is totally dark else camera use don't flash....
flash works while focusing.....

I am using XPERIA MINI PRO
I installed official ROM. SOME ERROR ARE IN EVERY DEV ROM. I am so confused...
I got it just cleared data from. . .
Settings/apps/all/camera clear data
Sent from my SK17i

[Q] Camera flash dead?

Hi all,
I'm really hoping someone will be able to help me. My Nexus 10 has been working fine up til now. I just tried to take some photos, the first two were fine, the flash worked and they came out ok.. then I tried to take another but the flash didn't work. I figured it might just be a bug so I restarted the nexus, it still wouldn't work. then after a few mins the flash just came on and stayed on. so I went back to the camera app, the flash turned off and the app told me "cannot connect to camera". Another reboot and the camera is fine again but still no flash. Any suggestions? or is it RMA time... which I'm reluctant to do as other than this the tablet is perfect.
Thanks
The flash by-default is automatic, depending on lighting. May want to try going to the camera app, and making sure flash is actually on, and not automatic, and then giving it a shot.
Tried setting the flash from auto, no luck. Was in a fairly dark room anyway so auto should have caused the flash to go anyway. Thanks for the suggestion though
EDIT
------------
UPDATE - I tried flashing the factory image to check if it was some kind of corruption or software bug. Didn't work, still no flash. So I started reinstalling all my apps and setting everything back up and, while installing some humble bundle games, I accidentally started the camera app... and guess what, the flash came on and then went off again after it had focused. Took a few photos and the flash was working. Tried again 2 mins later (without changing anything on the device) and the flash has stopped working again...>.<
