[Q] Supernexus 2.0 i9300 Build 4 Camera resets phone when launched - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Please, please, please can someone help me.
I have a Galaxy S3 i9300 and have installed [ROM][AOSP][JB][4.2.2][JDQ39] SuperNexus 2.0 - I9300 - BUILD 4 [03-04-13]
I absolutely love it, the battery drain is minimum. 4 hours with 90% remaining, astonishing!
I have one major problem, when I launch the Camera my screen goes black (i.e. the Camera APP launches) and the phone instantly resets!
I have tried a different Camera.apk but the same thing happens.
I have re-flashed the ROM several different times trying everything I can think of, deleting Cache. Dalvik Cache and deleting Data/Factory Reset, Formatting System, Formatting SDCARD then installing from External SD, everything I can think of with the same result. The ROM runs beautifully just the Camera Resets the phone every time.
I hope that someone can help me as I really want to use this ROM but no camera is a Deal Breaker for me.
Oh I have tried a few other ROMS like crDroid, ParanoidAndroid, Slimbean, STOCK obviously but none of those suffered this issue.
If I can't resolve this is there any other ROM like this I should try?
Thanks in advance for your much needed help.

As the rom chef for help, probably a framework issue in the build.

I have the same issue as mentioned above. Launching the camera (even through Instagram or other apps) resets the phone. The flashlight app also resets the phone. Is there any method to solve this issue?
I do not have access to post on the Development forum. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks.

Hard reboot problem

Hello,
I am having a problem for some time now.
When I try to install an app (from playstore or titanium) my htc chacha (running CM7.2) freezes and hard reboots.
I have found people with a slightly similar problem and there solutions but nothing worked for me. I do not have too many apps on my phone that cause this.
Did factory reset, cwm flashed rom (with clearing data, cash and dalvic).
Does anyone have a idea i could try?

I don't know allot about this but could it have anything to do with misplaced system files?

[Q] Phone Constantly Crashing

Hi.
I'm on my 2nd S3 now. First one suffered from the "sudden death syndrome".
My 2nd S3 has been perfectly fine bar the odd lock up. It's rooted and flashed with Supernexus by Faryab on v4.2.2
It has been freezing a lot lately, maybe 3 or 4 times a day but over the past few hours, it's now locked up approximately 20-30 times and I have to keep the power button pressed to reboot it. I've uninstalled any apps I have installed over the past few days. Booted into recovery and cleared cache and davlik cache (it's now saying Android is Upgrading upon every reboot). I can't even get time to backup my apps using Titanium Backup without it crashing.
What is going on anybody? Any help is much appreciated.
Try having a read of the freezing thread over in general.

Thanks. It appears my full microSD card was causing the problem. Cleared a few movies off it last night and it's not crashed since. Fingers crossed!

I guess i spoke too soon. More crashes again today
Did you do a full wipe including system format before installing the ROM? . It may be a data problem. Don't forget that 4.2.2 is also a beta firmware mate and not official like 4.1.2 so these things can happen. Also there are no custom kernels to flash to try and see if it's kernel based either.

Hey, yeah I did a full wipe including system format before I installed the new ROM. I've had this ROM for probably 3 months now and haven't had any problems with it up until the last few weeks. Infact 4.1.2 was killing my battery in a matter of hours. 4.2.2 ROM made me love my phone again as it fixed my battery woes!
This is so frustrating...
4.2.2 being a beta version can do this but re-installing can sometimes cure it though. Changing the kernel in 4.1.2 can give you better battery if you play around with a few and if course is more stable being an official release too. You can also try a different 4.2.2 ROM. They aren't all the same.
Thanks for the reply. Im not too comfortable/confident in changing kernels due to my lack of knowledge on them!
I do however like Faryabs ROMS as I like the original Android flavoured ROMS.
Will try a reinstall!

I have the exact same issue, I was running Faryaabs rom version M1, Android 4.2.2. And a couple of days ago, I noticed it started freezing, and I have to reboot with power button. Now I installed the leaked Touchwiz 4.2.2. but the freezing remains and it has started to be worse. As you mention, 20-30 times a day. I have noticed though, when I shutt of internet, both wifi and 3/4G I get less crashes. Have you noticed the same?
If you find a solution, please inform me to.
Cheers,
Niko

I think you may have found it
Wifi for example is controled by the kernel but there is no source codes released by Samsung so thats why there are no custom 4.2.2 kernels available for the S3 or you could flash one and most likely sort the problem out.
Its a shame cos there are for other phones on this version.
Hi dude
I went to the freezing thread here and found that the DFG method solved it all. So for anyone willing to try this please head over to that thread or just download the dummy file generator apps (2 in app store) although one is only necessary.

[Q] CM12 Android is upgrading...starting apps

I have been flashing the nightly CM12 ROMS and am very pleased overall, apart from one issue. Sometimes on startup I see the message "Android is upgrading...starting apps". This message displays just before the lock screen appears. I have tried the following to solve the problem, all to no avail:
* Full wipe using CWM Recovery and TWRP (inc. data, system, caches etc)
* Removing apps one by one
*Wiping cache and dalvik cache
* Fix permissions
I even flashed back to CM11, all OK. The problem is not present on this ROM. Therefore, could it just be an issue with CM12? After all, the ROM is still in the early stages of development.
I know it's not a major problem, but I would like to solve the issue if possible. Any help would be appreciated.
its not an issue its just verbose output showing up telling what its doing
If you are familiar with android since its beginning you might have seen this quite a few times. Otherwise get use to it
Many thanks for the reply. So, no need to worry? Do you see it often on your Z Ultra? And why is this happening randomly on reboot and not everytime? Thanks again.

nothing to worry about, it happens now and then...for example if you moved an app to system directory or installed something which uses a lot of storage

Check the replies in the development build. T399 has to download an app specified in the development but people with the T399N seem to have no problems with v23.

The developer Acreaperjb needed people to test the ROM and kireflow seems to have the SGH-T399N while he is meant to develop it for the SGH-T399. Is he now making a hybrid build for both models?

wow
Had the lightwave rom on this before, and it worked well. After a few hrs of running cm i am blown away at the performance. Buttery smooth. Calls crisp, no issues whatsoever aside from the camera. Got xposed on it, gravitybox and greenify working great so far
And just thought I'd try it with the Camera MX from playstore and voila, it works! One picture at least
Bluetooth freezes calling app
Hi everyone, first of all, big thanks to AcreaperJB
I just installed version 0.2.3, overall I really like the ROM, I have two issues with it, really it's just one that I care about, here I go
1 - the big deal) I can't make calls over Bluetooth, after dialing I hear maybe one signal, maybe two if I'm lucky, after that the calling apps freezes, can't finish the call, can't call anybody else, can't hear anything, even turning off Bluetooth won't restore things, I can switch between apps and everything is fine except the calling app it's just stuck until I restart the phone, no more calling basically
2 - the workaround) camera will crash right after taking the photo, won't save the photo, I installed open camera from the play store and it works fine, I know it's a known issue, I just want to confirm it
Things to mention
- I did full install, all the partitions got wiped except the external SD card partition where I kept the ROM
- installation was scary, after installing the ROM it would circle back and forth, it was restarting and it wouldn't let me do anything, as soon as it got to CM wizard it restarted, I had no way to stop it or pause it so after about 10 restarts I gave up and just moved on and left the phone do restarts and I took care of other things around the house, already started thinking on how to go back to the stock rom, after coming back to the phone about two hours later the CM was waiting for me, got so surprised that it got out of the endless loop, i finished the wizard, went into CM and it doesn't restart anymore
thanks again
Uhm
Hey, does anyone know of a fix for the YouTube app? It keeps saying 'an error has occurred touch to retry'
SIM Card not detected?
So I clean installed the dirty v.0.2.3 and when it went to setup it said my sim card wasn't detected. Did I miss something? Does the "dirty" mean I won't get data? I'm new to this and I don't really know what the lingo means. I also can't change the APN's. It says "Access point name not available for this user".
I can't make any phone calls nor send any texts. My cellular data doesn't work either. Wi-fi and everything else works fine. Just the actual service.
Am I missing a step?
I flashed the ROM with twrp 2.8.4.0, I wiped davlick, data, cache, etc. I did the clean install, I don't understand why I am not getting any service or why my sim card isn't detected.
Please help
I need another link to download
Hi everyone

Screen going blank upon boot
I tried installing this rom after doing a full backup & then wipe. I made sure to wipe dalvik and cache. I then installed the 0.2.3.zip via TWRP 2.7.1.0 that comes with Light V3 Rom.
Install completed without error but upon boot the setup menu appears and then vanishes. I can get it to display ever-so-briefly by powering the display off/on.
I have a T-Mobile T399 unlocked for use on ATT. Unjustified Devs earlier builds did the same thing but would constantly reboot as well. Your rom doesn't reboot but the screen behaves similarly.
Have you heard of this behavior before, and are there any steps I can take to provide you with diagnostic information?

Answer: CM12-Light BETA for t399n camara workaround.
I have installed cm12 for the Samsung galaxy light t399N.. I am happy to report Everything is working fine! except the stock camera, I tried 7-8 camera apps on the Google play store with no luck, until.... VIOLA, I found one that works. It is called FOTOR. it works now. I have an extra step to deal with but the point is that my phone is now fully functional and running 5.02 lollipop on my METRO PCS t399n. BTW i did not have to edit the apn settings; interestingly, I have an indicator that tells me I have T-Mobil for my carrier.... Thank goodness for the recent merger and switch over to the T-Mobil network, one more problem solved. Hope that helps someone else out there.
thanks

Reboot cycle
After installing V0.2.3 using TWRP 2.8.4.0 on a T399 on a T-mo network I am stuck in a continuous cycle of rebooting every few seconds. I have tried reinstalling starting from a stock image and wiping the cache, data, and dalvik. Any idea what I could be messing up?

Camera keeps stopping/crashing

I updated my T-Mobile Note-8 to Oreo (CRC2) via OTA update. Ever since my "camera keeps stopping" after taking a pic.. Anybody else here with similar experience?
Things I already tried:
1. Cleared system cache, did NOT work.
2. Cleared camera app cache/data, did NOT work.
3. Cleared gallery app cache/data, did NOT work.
4. Changed to internal/phone memory storage (in the camera settings), did NOT work.
5. Tried safe mode & camera still crashed, did NOT work.
Quick google search says many other people are facing this issue (different devices). I'm surprised there is NO posts here asking about this...
My only option at this point is to do a complete factory reset. But I hate doing that because of all the setup steps involved in making it behave correctly (as I like it).
Any help appreciated.

I had Samsung Experience Home keep FCing on me. Had to do a reset. Sucked. 1 other thing you might want to try is to go into Recovery mode and clear the cache there...and see if it helps you. (didn't work for me).

Yeah, that's what I did in step 1. Didn't make any difference, camera still crashes...
I guess factory reset and setting up the device from scratch is my only option at this point.
Can anyone please post a working version of the stock Samsung Camera APK that works on Oreo (CRC2)?
Help appreciated... Thanks

From JaguarXT inn another thread. Maybe this is why:
" Just be aware that there are problems with the current Oreo version for the Note 8. That is the reason why T-Mobile stopped sending out that version of Oreo Android to Note 8 devices right now. The last I heard of is that Samsung went to Google for help on the problems. So both Google and Samsung engineers are working on this.
You might want to wait until they send a version of Oreo Android for Note 8 that has the problems fixed."
I took the Oreo update the day it was pushed. I immediately factory reset and everything, including the camera, works perfectly. For the other Note 8 variants that recieved Oreo, and had problems; a factory reset fixed 99.9% of the issues.

Factory Data Reset is where my problems began. That end up Samsung telling this information and wanting to flash me back to Nugget until they fix this issue.
I was on OTA CRC2 Samsung stock Oreo.

Yeah, I had to factory reset as well... I used SmartSwitch to backup the phone on to my external SD card and then factory reset, wiped clean & installed CRC2 using Odin and then restored using Smart Switch app.
It sucked to do things all over again, but the phone seems reasonably behaved again!
