4.2.2 JB ROMs and camera bugs - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tried many of the 4.2.2 ROMs on here and they all have the same bug with the camera touch to focus whilst using flash.
Is this something that is inherent in all the 4.2.2 custom ROMs.
Or are there any that the camera flash works properly on
Thanks

So, if you want a solution to the camera stuff and if you can survive without 1080p recording, flash the huawei camera app.
download Gallery ICS from the playstore and move it to system/app.
Delete the Gallery2.apk from system/app.
70% of a solution.

Is 4.2.2 a finished release or just a leaked test beta ???

I think its a CM 10 ground up development and not based on any samsung release or leak
4.2.2 is whats stock on my nexus 7.
The 4.2.2 roms work great on my sg3. Apart from the camera which i use alot having a little one.
Im now using android revoloution Hd based on stock 4.2.1 which brilliant. But I miss the look and feel of 4.2.2

Presume as ICS was beta its failed the acceptance for ICS official release .
Rip camera out of a beta ICS or via Titanium backup and see if it works .

where should i rip the camera from since no SGS2 ics has the "real new" camera??

Beg your pardon i thought you where taking about a real camera in the beta builds not one from a picture show . You need to ask Samsung about that .

It could have been an app :-$
Or even ICS on another device other than the gs2.
Does the camera a built in panoramic setting like the galaxy Nexus advert?

no. google promoted this as ics built in.
look an example video :

Google ICS built-in is not the same as Samsung Touchwiz modded ICS built-in, that camera app may exist on AOSP or other devices, the Samsung release uses the touchwiz camera unfortunately.
That vid is hilarious!
Anyway of getting the ICS camera on top of Samsung TW?

Not that I'm aware of as yet, doesn't mean there won't be at some point in the possibly near future.

Need an ICS AOSP/KP rom with 100% working camera

Hi fellas ,
I'm a new galaxy S2 user..
I want a Rom which should be CM9 or AOKP or AOSP based and camera and video recorder should work flawlessly...
Samsung roms are welcome too if they look like stock AOSP...
thnks all in advance..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
You seem to know how to get around so I suggest flashing the latest CM9 nightly For me (and almost everyone ) it works without any probs
I'm using a ROM compiled from the source by a developer here based in the latest google official source (4.0.4) with latest cm9 kernel 3.0.28 wich make the phone FULLY FUNCTIONAL, Check it out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604366
also watch my video in my signature where shows how the roms works.
Right now I'm on hydrogen 14.04 rom,
Its latest AOKP Based,
Everything works except autofocus in main camera and led in video camera...
Will try CM nightly soon

Even being Lazy i can Live without toggles, i rather a clean aosp experience
I suggest ICS Resurrection Remix Pro, amazing rom highly suggest it, it doesnt have toggles to worry about, just base AOKP goodness
Bro Hydrog3n is also AOKP based and moreover , i tried the camera update from westcrip's page and it didn't came to any use ....
Same problems there too just pinch zoom added in UI
Does the LED in camera works for you ?
And what about autofocus without macro mode on ?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
The camera drivers for the SGS2 are proprietary which makes it more difficult for devs building from AOSP to get features working with the non-Touchwiz camera app, these issues exist in all AOSP based ROMs for the moment, I'm sure there are devs working on it but it may be quite a while before it works as well as it does on Samsung ROMs for obvious reasons. If you want flawless camera you are more likely to find it on Samsung stock at least in the short term.
But my camera works just fine on cm9

Working and working without bugs are 2 different things, there are still issues with the CM9 camera, and since the OP wanted flawless, I wouldn't call it that at the moment.

Yeah he's absolutely correct...
I've wiped the camera data and video LED started working, but autofocus really needs fixture...
BTW- what is proprietary??
Is it itbsomething that can't be modified or what ?

i only tried the AtrICS rom as an android 4.0+ rom and what i discovered was that the flasher is not timed correctly. It flashes before the pic is taken so the pic is dark though the flasher is on. And the flasher brightness was also low. aren't you having such problems? If not in my opinion best camera app for an ICS or newer rom is camera JB+. i flashed back to mrom because there were many issues, not only camera problems. And now the camera's flasher is timed correctly back again and the flasher brightness is also strong as before. So if you are not using an android 4.0+ ROM i would go for camera ICS+ or Pro capture
camera 360 for free
Camera 360 I can recommend for JB Roms

oh really? i can't actually make a purchase right now so maybe you can give it a shot :fingers-crossed:
there is a 4.2 modded camera app that must be flashed in CWM, it enables a lot of features not avaible by default in the devices, you should search it in apps and games(or development) in Android General, dude, that is the best camera app i used in my phone, but ya know, opinion is like an a**, each one have its own.
The Leaked ICS camera app is the best I have used, is it possible to port it over to another ROM (CM10)?
Actually I use Wondershare PowerCam it's free, no ads, nice effects, faster startup time and maybe a better picture quality against my paid Camera Zoom Fx!
Now, I'm going to test FxCamera and Cymera
I have tried a few camera apps as well but ultimately settled on camera zoom FX. It takes pretty nice shots without having to surf through a bunch of set up options. but it also has features you might use down the road. I'm more of a point and shoot type person so YMMV.
FV-5 - professional camera :laugh:

If you search for a free app, the best is Camera 360..paid, the best is Camera Zoom FX..

[Q] 4.2 Google Camera with Samsung camera?

Hello, i was just wondering.
Is there anyway to get Google 4.2 camera and Samsung note 2 camera at the same time?
I like the panorama and Photosphere from Google camera (and the circular autofocus ring looks cool )
but i like the best shoot, smiley face and many other features from the samsung stock camera. ( really do)
So is there anyway yet to install two of these cameras at the same time?
or add those features together?
I read some forum posts and do a little research, everybody says flash it/replace it.
( I run a custom rom with touchwiz and other samsung stuff on it)
Which ROM are you on? Yes you can have both of you don't want to delete the tw camera take your 4.2 camera and manually put the apps and libs where they go and reboot.

Jelly Bean's Rom will allow you to do this.
