Hey, has anyone else had problems with the stock S3 camera since updating to jelly bean 4.1.1???. I use a few other camera apps as well and all are working normally and fine... but when i take pictures with the actual stock camera app and then try to view the pics... the gallery freezes and shuts down... the gallery works fine with every other camera app i use tho... its only the stock camera folder that freezes... so weird... this just started happening today... not sure if its a jellybean issue or what... help?

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.

Ive always used screen cast in the past which worked fine but on the jelly bean ROMs the video just becomes a garbled mess of static. Anyone have a different app that they know is working?

Screen cast is working fine for me on jelly bean.

Even if you go into menus or apps? That's when mine starts looking like a 1960's television.
Would you mind posting your screencast settings and rom? I'm on cm10 nightly
This is what I get when I open a menu, drawer or app. Tried every setting and no joy.
.....edit. I can't upload a picture because the xda app sucks balls and keeps telling me to upgrade when I have the latest version
Update: it seems to run better right after a restart before any apps are opened but still goes nuts if you try and open the drawer.

I'm on the cp3 collective ROM. I literally just installed the app this morning (never touched settings) run app and buzz around my phone including opening up app drawer. I've viewed the clips and all seems fine.

Installed a new kernel. No results. Going to flash some other ROMs. Maybe its just cm10

Update: restored an old liquid build and it works fine. Must be cm10
New liquid jelly bean is a no go. Also cm9. Screw this app. Gotta find something else.

It worked fine for me in Jelly Bean as long as I turned off hardware overlays in system dev settings.
Using ViperRom, just started getting camera FC's. If I switch to front camera and take a pic, then switch to regular camera it will let me take a picture, but other than that it closes to app drawer. I haven't changed anything recently and it was working fine months ago when I installed the ROM. any ideas? kernal problem maybe?
Have you tried flashing the HQ modded cam?

Is auto focus turned off?? I think if it's on that will cause FC.

Disable auto-focus and/or face detection.
I flashed the HD mod for Sense cameras, and haven't had a FC with auto-focus on, though. I disabled face detection but haven't tested it with it on yet.
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

I'm on a stock 4.1.2 rom and the camera app always says camera failed. I tried the 4.2.2 camera and it worked for a little while then always forced closed. Anybody know a fix for these camera issues?
