Flashlight not working with camera apps - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First i thought it was a rom related problem but my flashlight light doesn't work with camera apps that i download from playstore (even with stock rom and kernel)
it works with the camera app that is preinstalled in the rom ... the flashlight is ok if i use any torch app ...
any help?

See for checking every thing which is working or not you should go first to Stock ROM ,Flash stock via odin then check whether its working or not and which third Party app your trying to check ?

thank you for the answer
i already did it (flash stock via odin) but the result is the same
i tried 6 or 7 camera apps but the flashlight is disabled. i can't click on it.
It works only with the stock camera app

Starting the camera flash in torch mode via the standard API is not implemented on most Galaxy Ace models and that's why the camera apps from the market, which use the standard method, do not work. The result will be the same with different ROMs, because the ROMs use the same system drivers as the stock ROM.

I know this might be irrelevant but flashlight works on my Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 when using Cymera and other camera apps.

the question is did u make a nandroid back up before u flashed it. If not u can back up ur apps with titanium back up and then wipe cache and flash ur rom again then restore ur backed up apps with titanium back up.
note: that u shouldn't back up system apps or data specially of course the cam causing the troubles.

[Q] Problems reinstalling stock FM radio (or any fm radio) on s5830i

Hi, I searched for a lighter rom and found Redemption 4 on this forum and I love it!
however I now realized I do use the FM radio and it is no longer there --
searched around I I thought I could just install some FMradio.apk , but for some reason install fails (and I can install other apps)
could anybody help me out on this ?
I never really tweaked my android phone untill 2 days ago
thank you!

hmmm...
I tried already a few of them and it's quite strange that installation fails... do fm radio applications (non-streaming) require any extra things beyond the apk file??
any help please? One of the few apps on google play says it only works with motorloa, so I guess there is a dependency on the model/brrand thus not just any radio app will work. And why should not work with the stock one? (which is just fine for me)
If anybody knows of an fm radio that works with galaxy ace s5830i please let me know!

Then flash to stock rom, backup fmradio.apk with titanium backup, flash to your custom rom and restore fmradio.apk

Here is the stock FMRadio.apk.
Flash it with Clockworkmod or RZ.
"earphones not connected"
mine says the earphones are not connected.. i uninstalled and re-installed the radio app but still no joy. the e/phones work fine on other phones/audio equipment though.. i even tried the supplied e/phones from the box.. nothing.. :/

I'm guessing this is cos you're on Jelly Blast, there's several solutions install Rafael baugis kernel, or install soundabout app (in settings find the one that says let phone decide and check it) download from Google play, these will fix your problem

Stock FM Radio doesnot work with CM 7.2 since there are no Samsung frameworks in CM versions. You can use any third party apps from Google Play. Hope I Helped

Install photo sphere in l9 by recovery.

I install photo sphere in our L9 and it works great,
installed through recovery.
1.REBOOT INTO RECOVERY.
2.INSTALL ZIP FROM SDCARD-CHOOSE ZIP FROM SDCARD
3.INSTALL IT.
but I found two problems.
1-sometimes I get the following failure:GALLERY APK(PROCESS COM.ANDROID.GALLERY3D) has stopped unexpectedly.
I uninstalled the old gallery and reviewed the permiss of new gallery but still happens.
This failure has no influence on the application and works great but if we can remove it...
2-photo sphere mode works so slow,works fine but so slow.
any idea or solution to work properly this way.
Glad someone brought this up, try this one: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5fbjwu4rvudqkuz/4.2Camera&Keyboard_FromN4Dump_BuiltOCT26.zip
It is the camera and the keyboard extracted from nexus 4
To be honest I didn't try it yet
the camera is the same as mine but the keyboard i will test it.
:laugh:
EDIT:keyboard works fine,but camera works in all forms except PHOTO SPHERE which does not work.(device not supported)
the gallery runs fine now,i uninstall the GALLERYLG2.APK AND ODEX and dont have any problems.
Solution: flash the keyboard and camera of handimo and then flash photo sphere mine.

Photo Sphere will be not working on L9 due to lack of gyroscope.

As I said before - it will not work due to lack of gyroscope (this is why it is so slow).
How slow is it? How much longer than on, say, a Nexus 4? I'm just wondering.

using any ROOT BROWSER, go to /system/app there you can delete the apk that has the name of the app you want to get rid of
but... before you flashed the nexus camera you had to do a CWM backup, so when **** happens, you can always restore
next time you wann try something, do a backup, it's takes less than 2 min i think.
Did somebody try hanmdimo zip? Does it works fine? And how will i delete that? Just restoring an old backup??

I still didn't try it
someone did and said that the keyboard works fine but the camera not so, the option for Photo Sphere is too slow.
before flashing this pelase backup using CWM,
if you don't like the apps then just restore the backup you made.
wondering if it is possible to mod the code of this apk so that it could run on the accelerometer on, instead of gyroscope which we dont have on L9 (some kind of using the accelero simulating the gyro....)

Probably you can't use with just an apk, it needs some different libraries.Try an 3rd party app.

I tried disabling the stock gallery with root app delete. Still no luck

hi sir. sorry forgot to include. i am just using stock rom. i tried installing that cyanogen app, but cant figure out on how to install a custom ROM, phone not supported,
So if you're on stock the cyanogen camera won't do the trick. I know it sounds redundant but have you restarted your phone or downloading a 3rd party camera?

That's unfortunate man. When all else fails try a factory reset.
