Google Camera crashing - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, this is my first post on XDA
I downloaded the new Google Camera yesterday when it was released, I must say, I'm liking the simplicity..
When I try to go to setting however, it just closes and says "Unfortunately camera has stopped". What could be the cause?
I am running cyanogenmod 11 m5 snapshot, stock kernel as well.
Thanks

Same issue for me, I have Resurrection remix and omni libs/camera.

It's an issue almost for everyone. Wait for a fix.

Same problem goes here over I9300 powered by UltimaAOSP ROM 4.4.2_r2 with ART Runtime enabled

Anyone tried gapps 4.2 with cm10?

gapps 4.2 works close to perfect on my s3. i was just wondering if anyone tried it on their tab10.1
Sent from my GT-P7500 using xda app-developers app
Yeah I was wondering the same thing, I tried it on my Acer a510 running CM10 (unofficial) but photosphere just kept crashing with the gallery FC every time I tried it, I changed the language to United States as the workaround suggests but still FC.
Android Keyboard FC too.
Anyone else tried it and got photosphere to work? or have a workaround?
Yes, i've installed gapps-jb-42 on CM10, work great including calendar.

Some of them are crushing unfortunately, for example photo sphere. Android keyboard works perfectly with no FC. I.e. on my p7500 work almost perfect.
There's no setting on Gallery.

Same here (latest CM10 build).
Work fine but on a fresh install I had the keyboard missing and had to install another one.
Not 100% sure it was gapps's fault anyway.

Are you guys still having problems with the simpsons tapped out game on the very latest CM10.1 (4.2.2)?
I did a full wipe on my phone and went back to 4.2.1 and it all seems to be working fine again, I lost my game progress though and had to start over!
I would however like to get the latest CM10.1 but want to know if the game works on it. Thanks.

any success ?? A friend of mine has the same problem on his S2

Hey guys,
I am having the same problem, after around 30 seconds the phone completely freezes and I have to do a hard reset.
It works without problems on a Nexus S with Android 4.2.1.
I tried to see whats happening via logcat, but it disconnects as soon as the phone freezes. And the logs are cleared after a reboot.
If anyone can give me instructions how to debug such an issue I am glad to help out.
Thanks
Is there any solution for the problem ?

This is a CyanogenMod 10.1 bug.Simply do what I do...Flash DorimanX kernel,and dual-boot.Install CyanogenMod based ROM as first,and a Sammy,or 4.1.2 ROM as 2nd.When you want to play games,simply reboot into the 2nd ROM.This is an annoying bug,and that's the only fix I found.Hopefully They'll fiz it in CM 10.2
Thank you this is really annoying ...

Chrashes here, too.
I would like to send a logcat to the dev, but cannot find a E-Mail Adress and I don't want to create an Odin Account, just to submit the Crash report.
Going the evil way, and just give a bad reputation

What's that? Sounds unpleasant :d
Has it been solved yet? I encounter that game crashes also on CM10.2 with android 4.3.1 on Samsung galaxy s2. Really anoying, I'm glad I have also tablet, but without 3G and sometimes I would like to play Simpsons out of wifi signal range... Any solution? Except hard reset or flashing another kernel. thx
nope..
I've just put Cyanogen 11 (Kitkat 4.4.2) mod on my Samsung GS2 to 'debrand' (worked lovely btw) but then found this thread - looks like Simpsons and cyanogen haven got on for some time after repeated attempts to force stop, clear cache, uninstall and reinstall its still not working - welcome screen then blank screen then back to home screen with Simpsons has stopped report or OK... Never mind I can live without it but just in case people were waiting to see if the latest cyanogen fixed the problem, it doesn't right now but I believe the kitkat mod is still in its infancy so maybe in future updates it may get sorted but tbh I can't see this being top of their to fix list...
Fixed!
Hi guys
Good news for you Simpsons tapped out fans. I am running Cyanogens official kitkit nightly now on my Samsung galaxy s2 i9100 (cm11 20140205 nightly) and thought I would give it another go so downloaded the app again fresh from the app store and it loads no problem! Downloaded the updates on the splash screen as well no problem but I was unable to sign into origin (said servers were not available), simply rebooted the phone and the login to origin worked and my game is back where i left it! Happy chappy
I've been running a January nightly, just so I could play Tapped Out! Thanks for the update, I'm flashing a new nightly! woo-hoo!

Great news if true. I am running cm11 20140204 nightly and my phone freezes after a minute or so of playing. I'll flash the newer version then and see if that's fixed. Thx

[Q] Tab 10.1 3G and Photosphere

Hello -
I've been trying to flash available zips, but have not had any luck with this.
Has anyone been able to get Photosphere Camera working on Tab 10.1?
I am running latest CM10.1 Nightlies.
Thanks,
K
Mine works flawlessly on CM nightlies. I held on to the original gapps I installed at the beginning and when the artifacts were cleared from the camera shots, photosphere became better too. I have been using it since then.
Cheers.

My gapps is dated 20121212 and it is signed.
One thing I kept doing when camera, photoshpere and gallery were misbehaving at the beginning of the nightlies was to clear data for gallery. Before I posted this, I had to reconfirm that the photosphere was still functioning well. At first it crashed immediately I activated it. So I went to Apps in Settings and cleared data for Gallery and that solved the problem. You may wish to try that. By the way I am 24/05 nightly.
Cheers.

No joy. I tried clearing data and stuff as suggested, but photosphere closes after taking the first shot.
Have even tried re-installing CM10.1 with nothing else installed.
Any thoughts or other suggestions?
Thanks,
K
What nightly of CM 10.1 are running? That will play a significant role in the functionality of photosphere. There was a time it was not supported at all but later support was restored and has been okay since then, at least for me.

Thanks for the update and sorry, I was out of town and was not able to get to this post.
I have recently reset my tablet to bare minimum. I am currently running CM10.1 nightly 0606, and was just thinking about upgrading to 607 (607 is latest as of writing this).
As far as camera app, i am using 4.2Camera_t04.zip (i can't remember where I aquired this from). I DO NOT, at the moment, have gapps package installed.
I will be looking to install the 301 gapps with 607 nightly to see if it helps.
Thanks,
Khurram
Update:
I installed the latest nightly 607 and installed the 1212 gapps. Installed the camera zip mentioned earlier and tried photosphere. It opens, but after taking first picture, the camera crashes.
I tried clearing data for gallery app, but still crashes.
Investigation continues...
John -
Would you be able to share or point me towards the Photsphere camera app/zip you are using?
I'm pretty much out of ideas at this point.
Thanks,

I actually did not install any other camera app/zip, just the gapps. So reinstall the cm 10.1 and gapps after the necessary wipes, then wipe cache and dalvik after the installation. Run Photosphere and if it crashes, wipe data for gallery.
Hope this helps.

CM 10.1+ SnapChat and Instagram Not working

I have two phones Samsung Galaxy Note (AT&T) and Samsung Skyrocket (i727).
CM 10.1.2 are installed on both.
Instagram - The video recording feature works on the Skyrocket, but not Note. The camera feature does not work until I disable 'advanced camera' option in the Instagram App itself, but the video feature is not available. Latest build is installed.
SnapChat - The camera and video recording features work on Skyrocket, but not Note. The camera and video access to snap chat hangs the operating system and you can see green over the camera image if it appears. Latest build is installed.
From Clockwork Touch Recovery (latest version), I have cleared cache, wipe dalvik, and wipe user data options prior to installing the latest CM10.1.2 and nightlies on the Note, but I still cannot get it to work. Fiddling with the developer options such as hardware overlay and hardware anti aliasing are not helping.
I spent a long weekend trying every build since CM 10.0 on the Note. It appears something changed in the nightly from April 15, 2013 or so nightly build that broke support in the camera. If I go back to the April 11 experimental build or 15th nightly build, both the Snapchat and Instagram work on the Note without issues.
Wrong thread. Try disabling HW overlays.

Disabling HW overlays did not help. I get a black screen on Instagram. And Snapchat still freezes/crashes.
Flash a stock ROM.

Flashing a stock rom obviously works, but that isn't the goal of my post.
Per my original comment, CM 10 did work properly until 4.15.2013. I think a bug was introduced. The i727 (skyrocket) does not have this problem even on current builds. Is there any place to file a bug ticket for the quincyatt CM build? My openID doesn't seem to be allowed on CM's Jira system.
Have you tried different ROMs?
Instagram was working (mostly) for me on PACMan. Haven't tried 4.3, but the 4.2 version. The only thing is apparently video didn't work right...but I don't know, never used video.

Do you mean video recording or playback? Both were working in CM prior to 4/15/2013 on snapchat and instagram. Where can we report a bug?
Apologies, I should have specified.
I meant video recording is buggy. Everything else works fine, though.
As far as bugs, you can report them to the ROM developers in their thread. I'd try and provide a logcat if possible, so they can figure out the issue more.

Camera problem on Paranoid Android

Hi guys, im using the latest build of paranoid android which is 4.46 beta2. I got a cannot connect to camera error awhile ago. Whenever I try to open my camera, the error appears. But then I restarted the phone then the camera is working again. Is this a known bug since the PA ROM is CM based? I just wanna make sure.
Thanks!

I've personally never had any issues with the camera, but the camera has always been an issue with aosp im pretty sure. Just download google camera from the play store and see how that goes
