[Q] Back Camera Hangs - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Back camera hangs most of the time; it works sometimes but most of the time it freezes and FC itself saying "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped." Front camera always works fine.
The back camera wont FC itself all the time, sometimes it just stays black (with all the buttons and interface working), and sometimes it stays with a freezed image of what the camera sees (also with the interface ok).
I've tried full wipes, I've flashed different roms, with different kernels; cleaned the camera's cache and data; tried the "Restart Camera" solution/workaround; I've even tried to "tap the camera hard" as some people has suggested.
What I haven't done is flashing stock rom, since I consider it won't be of any help (But if you advise me to, I'll do it). And I haven't tried Roms that are not 4.4.4
I'm currently using AICP Rom (4.4.4)
Sorry for any typo.

Hi, thanks for replying. I've lost count of how many, but as I remember, they all were KK Custom Roms, the ones I remember I've tried are AOKP, CM11, and AICP.
It started since... I don't even remember, it has been so long, I just hadn't been able to try to fix it, untill now.
I flashed the stock JB ROM and it fixed it. So I thought that there were corrupted files and since I have them now, I was going to work again if I flashed the AICP ROM back... but nope, it has the same issue.
I'll flash a JB Custom Rom (Probably CM10.2) to see what happens.

Update: I flashed a JB Custom Rom (Fusion Rom) and the camera is working good so far.
But still not working in KK.

[Q] Galaxy S4 Custom ROM's Issues (no sound, black screen on call)

Hello Folks,
Forgive me if i have posted the thread in the wrong section or of any other reason. I am a new member.
I have an issue since i start installing custom ROMS. So, straight to the point.
What have I done so far?
is not my first time installing a ROM. I have installed stock ROM's in the past. However, not custom ones. I have rooted my device in the past and even now before installing a custom ROM. I have installed through TWRP recovery various custom ROMS such as Omega, AOSP, ARROW, WanamLite, Google Edition and CyanogenMod but none of them worked fine for me.
What Issues I experience?
In some ROMS I might not have reception (don't worry the IMEI is the same and backed up). However, in EVERY ROM my dialler crashes; for example, when im trying to make a call it freezes and the screen goes black without seeing anything. On the other hand, when I receive a call, screen takes ages to appear and show the caller or even accept the call. In addition, I have NO SOUND at all in every ROM as well.
What I think the problem is?
I believe that the kernel might be the problem. This is because when i am booting the phone I always see the following:
kernel is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit: kernel
I have tried clearing cache, dalvik, removing battery, installing stock ROMS etc.... and nothing changed!
I would much appreciate if you could help me with my problem as my phone is not usable at all like this.
Many thanks,

[Q] Can't connect to camera (deep sw problem)

Hello,
I have been googling and reading all threads about this issue for over a month now, so it's problably something quite special. Every time I try to use an app using a camera or flashlight, it reports with "Can't connect to camera" message. This first happened while trying to flash a Kitkat rom (Artas's CM11) with wrong recovery. So it was not working, I got back to system, flashed the correct recovery via flashify, got back to it and finally flashed the rom. Ever since that the camera has not been working, with one exception - now this is the interesting thing that makes me think it's not a hw problem - while trying to do all kinds of unbricks and resets I know of (flashing all kinds of different roms, CM based, AOSP, of course all kinds of original roms) I decided to go for KDZ - so I got the original bin I found on this forum and got back to v10i and the camera worked! So I was happy that it's solved and decided to stick with stock rom. It updated to JB (the official way) and ever since, it has not been working. I have tried to flash persist images, to mess with permisions and I can't really think of any other way. (Of course I have tried to flash KDZ again the same way, but it did not work, not even on ICS).
Thanks for every idea!

S3 Camera i9300

I firstly installed cyangoenmod 12.1 after the camera has stopped working bug i installed cm camera fix from google play but that didn't worked and the camera that sometimes worked had now completely stopped. Now i flashed stock rom and the camera started working but when i flashed cm again it stopped again after sometime then i flashed back to stock but this time it didn't work some times it would say "Unknown error occured" or sometimes the errorcallback error. Now when i flashed MIUI the camera worked but after a snap it stopped and crashed and when i launched it again it sayed camera not responding. Please help me
1. It's probably caused by various hardware. In the worst case you've to go back to any JB-TW based ROM.
2. The fixes mostly work as follows: flash ROM, start camera once and take a photo, return to recovery and flash fix.
3. Try this camera, suitable till LP.

Which fix can you provide the link?
@twitwimp: there's no witchy fix. Take the one, advised&made for the ROM, you use.
@twitwimp: for CM13-based ROMs I found this fix. Worth to try.

Problems with custom roms

Can somebody help me? I used the CM for a long time, but less than a month when I was with the CyanogenMod, the phone restarted and did not turn on anyway (something like a bootloop, but the darkened screen as if you were about to turn on, then lit again).
I tried to reinstall CM, but always after a short time of use, it restarts, and bootloop again.
I reinstalled the stock, but the frustration and willingness to use CM was so big that I tried to install again. Result: bootloop.
Anyway, I'm using the stock rom for a while, but still want to use CM.
Does anyone have any idea what could have happened? (All Xposed modules and mods that put into CM are the same I'm using now, but the stock has no problems)
This happened with RR rom too.
Sorry for this long text and my bad english
I want suggest you to wipe all thing system and data , cash/dalvik, (after backup) and then try to flash the ROM and just try another ROM instead CM and RR

g925f "camera has stopped"

Hi, I have a problem with my s6 edge. When I'm trying to use camera it doesn't start, just pop "unfortunatelly camera has stopped".
I had some problems with this phone, couldnt flash software, when finally flash newest software (6.x.x) I had a DRK problem, to fix it I flashed kernel Kernel_G925F_fix_DRK_error.tar, after that everything is working fine except camera. I tried to flash several stock roms, then custom (XtreStoLite) but camera is still not working. anyone know how to fix it?
