Hello, I need some help from you guys...
My Grand Quattro has a problem with camera (rear/front camera and flash), anything that uses this, crashes, and the camera app show "Camera Failed".
I erase data from camera app, gallery app, exclude my whole sdcard, wipe data, and reflashed stock ROMs. But all failed.
It is possible to be a hardware problem ? The camera works before, but suddenly stopped. If is a hardware problem, where specifically could be?
I will appreciate anyone that can help.
Sorry for my bad english...
anyone?

I've installed following rom on my htc incredible S
[ROM][CM10.1][4.2.2][3.0.38]CyanVivo 10.1[Source-built][PMEM][18/05/2013]
All works fine except for the camera, if I want to open it I get following error message 'camera error: can't connect to the camera'. Some suggest to clear the the data using system / apps / system apps, but the funny thing is ... it looks like there is no camera app installed when I follow this suggestion (although the icon is present in the apps/widget screen ). how can I solve this issue? I am quiet an amateur, a friend of mine unrooted my device so I could easily install custom rom's (fed up with HTC sense), so if you know how to solve this please explain as if I were a 6 year old .
Tx, cozze
My device is SGS2 INTERNATIONAL and rooted, and also uninstalled few preinstalled apps for personal needs and more RAM. Few days ago, i did CLEAR DATA and FORCE STOP of few downloaded apps and preinstalled apps as device memory was getting low and device was slowing down. But after that, i am not able to open Gallery and also Camera force close after few seconds (using ZOOM CAMERA as i uninstalled the preloaded camera app). Also having "android.process.media" stoping problem. Screenshot are not saved becuse gallery is not accessable and message display as "USB Storage is in use" (and also i am not using any microSD cards).
So need serious help as my Call Ringtone does not ring and no vibration as well, but message tones are working. I cant access Device Ringtone setting, i tried market Ringtone app but even tht app dont work. Also tried market Gallery app but useless.
Tried cache clearence and reboot as well for Gallery, Camera and Setting.
So need serious help as i am missing important calls and having problems with the device. Thnx

Download and flash the official firmware using Odin.
Also don't forget to backup the data before flashing.

thnx.bt flashing new firmware is the most last option for me.
give me some other solution except flashing. and also wht abt factory setting restore.
Doing a clean install (with a wipe) of stock as suggested by the previous poster is a sound idea, you'd do well to do exactly that (if you want to fix your problems, that is).

comee on guyz, no other solution except new stock flashing.
plz do tell me if u got some solution.
thnx
Do a factory reset then. You're doing that whether you flash anything or not. You either flash + factory reset or factory reset on its own (which might not work). They're the possible fixes, you not wanting to do those things doesn't change the fix.
That means i am stuck with Flashing only.
Thanks for your support but i will try to find out some solution.
One more thing, i deleted the two files application-support.apk and application-support.odx , so can these two files cuase such problem (as on xda-forum i learned that by deleting these files, "android.process.media stop" problem can be solved easily with out de-stabling the ROM)

hi. what about flashing kitkat 4.4. will it be oka.
or i should flash only official rom. wht u suggest
Stock rom first, then if you want to put a custom rom on you can do that. The first thing is to get the phone working normally again I.E no FC's.
HI there,
Since a week or two my S2 showed some strange, yet very specific bugs.
The bugs that I know of are the following:
-the 9gag app will open and I will be able to navigate through menu's but it will not show pictures
-My news app (nu.nl) will crash about 10 seconds after opening.
-I cannot enter my gallery, it will give the message that there isnt enough space and that I should remove stuff.
-I cannot send or download pictures/videos on whatsapp
As far as I know the rest works fine.
I tried the following to resolve the issues as followed:
-clear and reinstall the apps.
-clear dalvik and cach and reinstall apps after deleting them
-clear all cache and do factory reset
-clear USB storage and SD storage and do factory reset.
-change between touch wiz and Nova
All to no avail. When I reboot my phone both the 9gag app and the news app and the gallery will work. I can use them and they will respond fast and correctly. After a few minutes all apps will stop working in the way described above.
I have no clue on how to further explore this bugs.
Is this a hardware problem maybe?
If something is corrupt, how can I try to fix it??
PS: the news app (nu.nl) works on all my friends phones. 9gag also works on other S2's
If anyone has any idea what else I can try, plz advice.
thx
GT-I9100
vers. 4.1.2
kernel: 3.0.31-889555
Best idea is to switch to custom roms. You can have latest 4.4.4 Kitkat, so why are even trying? If you need thorough help, just let me know
This is a kernel problem. As Ahmed described, get yourself rooted and switch to custom roms. Otherwise if you want to stay stock, root your S2 only as it changes Kernel during rooting. Then tell us. I don't think it is a hardware issue. It is the bad behaviour of your kernel.
I had the exact same issue with my galaxy s2, even after installing new rom and changing the kernel the problem was still there.
After some reflexion i realised i let google play reinstall all my application before the bug reappeared. so i have made some test and came to the conclusion that the 9gag app was the problem, after uninstall it and restart the phone everything run fine for me.
So if you still have this problem try to uninstall the 9gag application.
Sorry for my bad english i hope it's still understandable
The phone was running stock Android 4.2.2 . One day clicking the built in camera app (v2.0) caused an error " Unfortunately the camera has stopped working". After googling the error this is what I tried , and did not work:
Restart.
Clear cache and data of the Camera app, Gallery and every other built in app with the camera icon.
Deleted all apps that used the camera (flashlight , scanner etc)
Went into recovery and wiped the cache partition.
Factory rest from within the phone.
Delete user data from recovery
Upgrade to Kitkat 4.4.2 - now the error has changed to "Camera failed".
Could this be a hardware problem?
Could this be a persist partition error? How can it be fixed on this phone?
Edit: Took the phone to Samaung lab (had one more month of warranty!) . They apparently re-flashed the OS and the problem is solved.
Some days ago I installed a Resurrection Remix Rom (I actually don't know which one, sorry. I just know that it's got Lollipop) and when i went to the camera it said: <<Can't connect to camera>>
I still had warranty, so I installed the stock rom (I checked the camera and it still didn't work) and I sent the phone to the company. IMPORTANT NOTE: In the warranty ticket it said <<SOFTWARE ERROR>>
The only camera I can use is the "selfies" one
When I received it, the error was fixed, so I tried to install another ROM, so I installed CM12. But... I got the error AGAIN and I haven't got warranty anymore
That's what I tried
-Install Reset Camera and Camera (CMFix) (Camera CMFix didn't open and I had Restart Camera Installed :v)
-Checking if an app is having troubles with the camera
-Rebooting in safe mode
-Holding down the volume/power/back
-Clearing Data and Cache of the camera
-Removing my SD card
-Renaming the DCIM folder
- youtube. com/ watch?v=Fa9qggQJ990 (I can't even access to that menu ._.)
-Find “Use NuPlayer” and uncheck it & restart
-Using other camera apps
-Disabling the Google Camera and using the default one
-EDIT: I installed the Stock Rom with odin and did a factory reset. I even did a "system reset" with odin. AND IT STILL DIDN'T WORK OMFG. Then I tried to update the camera firmware (youtube. com/ watch?v=Fa9qggQJ990) because I've got KK now, but the "Phone/CAM FW Ver Check" is disabled. I googled my camera Cam FW Ver and it's not old
Thank you, I'ts a really annoying error. My S3 is giving me too many troubles, I'm starting to hate it... But I can't buy a new one :crying:
OHMYGOD I CAN'T FIND A WAY TO FIX THAT ERROR HELP PLEASE
