Hi.
What kernel can I use to change the default camera? my htc evo 3d cdma's rear cameras are not working (when I open the camera app or pressed the camera button it goes black screen and then force-close).
Thanks.
I'm currently using Android Revolution HD 2.0.1 rom.
Have you tried reflashing the Rom or flashing a new one?

yes I have tried that path with no success. I heard that there's a way out by using custom kernel that allows us to change the default camera to load.
Did you make sure that the ROM has working camera? Probably isn't working because the ROM isn't fully compatible with the ROM!

Yes, I just checked it again and the ROM do support camera as one of the ROM feature is "improved camera performance".
The ROM that I use is Android Revolution HD 2.0.1 located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30484757. I have also double checked it by searching if there was any complaint from other users about the camera and I found none.

I would recommend to go to settings/apps/all and click on the camera.apk and when opened clear data and cache.
Changing to a custom kernel will not change your camera, installing another camera app will do that. The kernel is most likely nothing to do with your problem. Camera stuff like this is usually ROM related.
It can also be a kernel issue to depending on which kernel and what version it is. Most of the ROMs today have working cameras except the new Jellybean 4.2.1. (As far as I know right now)
But like raptor said, its more than likely the app itself.

First off this is not my work! See thread HERE for download! I simply downloaded and tested it running ParanoidAndroid 2.5x. It should work on any AOSP/CM10 rom.
Instructions:
1. Download the 4.2Camera.zip.
2. Place the zip file on the root of your phone’s storage.
3. Reboot into your recovery.
4. Just in case, make a backup.
5. Flash the 4.2Camera.zip file. (No need to wipe anything)
6. Once installed, reboot your phone.
*Optional: Rename Gallery2.apk to something like Gallery2.apk.bak, or you'll have two Camera apps.
*You can revert back to stock camera by removing .bak from the gallery 2.apk and deleting galaxy4.apk
*Photosphere is not working yet.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is another camera for AOSP/CM10 based roms. It is basically a mod for the stock CM camera...it incorporates mores features similar to touchwiz such as the ability to save pics to ext. sd and burst shot. I tested it on the GN2 and it works perfect even tho its says for S3.

a little off topic, but have you or anyone tried bootmannager on the gn2?
edit>never mind, i did a litle research and it is not compatible with our phone
so, why wont this work on touchwiz? Only asking becuause I flashed the same 4.2 camara zip I used on my gnex on my buddys tmobile note 2 and it worked fine and so did panorama mode. I haven't tried it on my phone yet, just because I kind of forgot about it and the only reason would be panorama mode which is more of a gimmick than a need. The stock touchwiz camara is pretty sweet.
Also on the aosp 4.2 camara I had problems with all my pictures being blurry. I had to manually tap the screen to focus and or take 2 pics in rapic succession to get a clear one and then delete the blurry one. pita.
Thanks. I can test it out if you think its worth it.

on the aosp mod it is but not the 4.2 cam. go into camera settings and scroll to the bottom.
to be honest, the only thing holding me back from flashing aosp roms are not wanting to lose the external sd card backup i have on twrp and gps issues, although i don't want to lose s pen really so it would be just to check it out. I am also not confident that once I flash cwm I will be able to go back to twrp easily.

Sorry, I didnt respond sooner. I flashed it and everything works fine exept for flash. If I have flash turned on it freezes and force closes. But photosphere works fine. Im not experienced enough to diagnose what is making the flash mess things up. Btw. Flash does turn on and stay on for about 5 seconds before it does a normal flash and fc's the app. Just to be clear for anyone reading this I am talking about the 4.2 camera that I already had from my galaxy nexus and not the one from this thread.
http://db.tt/GMD9WQKw here is a dropbox link to the file. Its not my work. I will try to figure out where I got it so i can give credit.
Tried to figure out where i got it (think it was android police) and the file seems to be available everywhere. Cant seem to pin it down and I dont see credit given on any of the posts or download links. So please forgive me. I tried.
ok thx

That is what I run. So yes. It works. I have had issues if I have flash turned on. I suggest using the stock camera if you need flash and using aosp if u want to play with photosphere.

The op is for concerning aosp roms. The last poster asked about beans touchwiz rom. The link I provided in a above post works for me on beans rom and has working photosphere. I cant comment on anything else exept that.
This mod is not made by me, I take no credit for it.
I found a working camera mod on the One X forums.
It gives your phone's camera a number of extra features like changing compression settings, better image adjustments and more!
known issues:
- Slow motion camera is currently broken.
- Installing this mod on ATT 1X+ doesnt work (can be fixed by manually replacing the apk in system/app).
For more information, install instructions and download link, visit the origional thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890547
Install this mod at your own risk, I take no responsibility if it broke your phone.

I tried to take some pictures today, but the picture compression doesnt seem to be doing anything anymore.
Maybe it's the new v5 update or maybe it's because I recently switched to the elegancia ROM.
Can anyone confirm if v5 also has this bug on other ROMs?
Anyhow the other extra settings do still work, like video compressions(which is really noticeable) and the audio compression from videos.
Also the extra steps in the image adjustments settings are noticeable.
If anyone wants me to upload a few videos with diffrent compressions, I'll try to make some time for it.
Break slow motion video capture for me, but the increased image quality heavily outweighs this con, would still like to get it working though, does it work for everyone else?
it also seemed to brake my slo-mo camera.
But I can live without it too. i like the new video quality, and the framerate which is more stable
I tested the photo compression again, and it does seem to be working. May have been a temporary bug yesterday.
I'll try to post some photos later!
Hi, have problem with Panorama function... it doesn't work: take the first shot, ask to move the camera and when I finished (if it doesn't return ad error because I'm too fast) it doesn't make any panorame, only the fist shot !
My configuration is in my sign... I'm doing something wrong ?

I have no idea, my panorama mode seems to be working fine.
My guess is reinstalling the mod, and if that doesnt work you might want to check out the origional mod page.
I've been a bit busy the past few days so the compression comparison pictures will come later.
Has anyone else been able to get this mod working on an AT&T HOX+? It doesn't seem to make any difference when I flash it on my phone.
Thanks.
I installed it on my AT&T one manually replacing the apk in system/app/ and is working so far.

You have to extract the apk from the zip file using a file explorer, copy the camera.apk to system/apps and set permissions to r-w-r-r, then reboot.
Note: Looks like this camera apk drains the battery faster.

So far everything seems to be working - here is what i have tested:
- Wifi Works - really good speed
- Call is clear - had 2hr phone call with multiple people
- Data is good
- Tethering works
- Batterylife is ok so far - Android system is draining a bit more than I'd like it to
- Titanium will occasionally force close but not sure if that's TB fault or ROM
-Fingerprint works
- It is really quick - I mean really quick!
Here is where I had some trouble:
- During the setup wizard the phone would want to restore from another phone without the option of setting up fresh. The way
I went around it is to turn off data and wifi and skip that part and just continue and then set up all the accounts once I was on the launcher.
Not sure if anybody else has had the same issue.
Finally no CM Themes - but we all know about that

Do not flash any custom kernel... Do not flash any pixel zips as it will bootloop..... First boot might seem to be bootlooping but a restart after the lag in boot animation seemed to fix the problem.

Theres a ton of reasons for that, but eventually a maintainer usually opens up a thread on the first days of releases.
We do have an unofficial release thread but, I guess some maintainer might eventually show up and post it

waiting for the custom roms to update !
i didnt know that they were waiting for official cm tree?
do the devs. actually use the CM official build sources to build their custom roms? (sorry noobish question.)
edit: i shall wait until they implement the cm theme engine .
It's been a few years since I ran CM. Question one, is SU included or does it get flashed in addition, two, what vendor ( I assume 10C from 7.1.1) or is that included as well?
Thanks.

The Themes option is currently unavailable but I am sure it will be added to upcoming builds.
I don't think there is a ROM out (CM14.1) that has it implemented as CM have only just released official nightlies
CM14 build is very solid. Battery life isn't the best but it's very fluid.

Oh I was worried. Theming and root are the two options that I miss from my 7.1.1. Next week I will try the ROM. I'm a little concerned about the battery drain but I hope that it will be better than stock 7.0.
Anyone tried adaway on this ROM yet? I tried with and without systemless root .zip it fails each time.

Weird, I'm using the rom now since two days and haven't got any restarts yet and haven't noticed anything wrong with the fingerprint.
The only thing I can confirm is the camera quality, for me it's ok as I don't use the camera that much anyway.
No restarts here either. Been using for two days. Works nice. Camera quality is not great but it is fast to take a picture. Fingerprint sensor doesnt work at all for me
Edit: finger print does work just buggy.
does this rom work with the dual sim version ?
Anybody tried flashing clean DRM-fix kernel to fix the camera issue?
Camera does not suck, the reason the photos. Were blurry was because the stock gallery app takes alot of time to render the image. Here's a sample image that I took.
I think this is a good ROM but I won't be using it for now since I don't want to do a full reset of my phone.
UPDATE: video recording does not work.
What if one would use a custom camera app would that help with the quality or do they all require some sort of proprietary components? I'm not talking about SteadyShot...etc, just good overall picture results using 3rd party apps on 3rd party ROMs.
so can someone make a thread about how to install the rom? I am a newbie on fastboot locked phones

Follow this link :
This is for Xperia M but this should also work for Xperia x except that you have to take DRM backup before you unlock bootloader.
Fingerprint worked for me initially.
But after adding a second fingerprint, fingerprint-unlock stopped working. Also deleting fingerprints from the settings does not work anymore. Adding new fingerprints also fails now..
Has anyone made the same observation? Possible fix?
