It's about the exploit, it fu*ks the camera up sometimes.
@OP: are you sure it started when you rooted the phone?

Yup.. patching the exploit causes camera issues.

Flash another ROM then
And dont make any wipes while on 4.0.4, you might brick.
Mobile Odin is a safe choice.

Sounds like too many people trying to get updates at once/the 'queue' is full & you should try again later. Unless it's some kind of funky CSC problem (which could be the case if you've been flashing/running stock roms not for your region).

Wrong place to ask mate..
You need to ask in the 'Apps & Themes' section.
A simple search of that section will answer your question.

Problem with Picture Quality in my SGS2

It seems that all of my pictures have been turning out grainy and washed out. The light in my pictures are always bright esp when im using back camera (ordinary).
To my wonders when im taking picture of myself using front camera the image is clear. The problem started one month ago and It wasnt always like that. All my settings are now on default and havent done anything on the camera. The attachment shows the image of desktop computer taken this time.
You guys have any assistance on this.

Since u are on stock firmware, and you haven't messed with ur phone, it must be a hardware issue. Does video recording have the same problem?

I don't know.. Mine is 2 years old now, and I haven't used any case except for the first few weeks!
But I haven't had any issue like this.
Why not take it to a Service Centre to check what the issue could be?

Auto rotate doesn't work..

For some reason my screen doesn't auto rotate sometimes, so I'm forced to restart the phone to make it work, is there anything I can do to avoid the restart process? I'm currently running AOKP milestone 1.

Sounds like a bug of that rom mate. Check the rom's thread to see if anyone else has that issue.
And have u done a full wipe before flashing?

I'm not someone who bothers about battery life. I care for performance, and a pleasurable feel.
But yeah, I can almost get through a day just fine. I charge at night when I go to sleep.

With wifi on the whole time and in normal use I get nearly 21 hour's, hmm so it's the same for everyone.
Without wifi it goes up to 2 day's though, both the above scenarios are without using power saving mode.
