Hello,
I have accidentally flashed Sultan's Camera zip on OxygenOS 3.1.4
Now, whenever I try to take a picture, the Camera app force closes
I can take pictures with Snapchat though, so I'm sure it's just a software issue
I've tried flashing this zip : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bzct65GWV98MZEJjbDhiNU5sUVU/view yet nothing has changed
How can I fix this ?
EDIT
Solved. Follow these instructions and clear the Camera app data :good:
Try following this posts instructions. If that doesn't work, the only thing I can think of is it try and reflash your rom.

Hi, I've installed the Lenovo super cam on my XZU, but it seems like it replaced the stock camera and now it's gone. I already deleted the Lenovo camera, but the stock never showed up.
I've been looking this forums for the stock camera, but seems like they are hundreds of camera apps but the stock one. Any idea how to get it back? Or where to get a copy of the original one? Besides a complete wipe, because I've just format and reinstall all my apps, and I don't want to do it again.
Thanks in advance.

Not the answer you want, but the stock camera is crap. try "a better camera".
You should be able to keep all the installed apps/data by flashing the latest FTF and make sure that the wipe data option is not selected

try Google official camera app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.GoogleCamera
or
camera zoom fx - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=slide.cameraZoom
Hit THANKS if I helped
Hi, Thanks for your sugestions
I started to looking for ways to get it back, until I remember That I can uninstall updates, and so I did. Uninstalled the camera updates and voila .
Actually the camera isnt That bad, specially when you install the Z2 addons, and use the Cybershot module of Xposed Framework, wich allow to Take photos in full res.
I've used the other cameras, but to Take pictures with pacient, for quick shots of random thingslile wire sets, diagrams and That kind of pics , the stock camera is ok.
I haven't used the stock or xcam camera apps for several days. I make android backups frequently (3 or 4 times a week) but don't keep more than the last 3. I am running Jasmine 4.0 as my DD with SkyDragon 2.7.4.1 kernel. This DD worked perfectly for me, camera included, for several days .
I have done lots of everyday experimenting type stuff but always returned to my Jasmine DD. Last night I wanted to use the camera and it is broken. It is broken on my last surviving nandroid. I don't have a clue what messed it up. If I install Jasmine 4.0 clean the camera works. But it takes a lot of time to get the heavily modded system back to the way I want it if I have to start over.
I have tried refreshing the LG apps and "other" apps from the Jasmine OP but it didn't correct the problem. I also noticed that I can't get the torch to work. I use lightflow but tried freezing it and rebooting and the problem remains. Before I give up and have to start from scratch again, does anyone have any suggestion as to what else to try? Thanks -
If you have the Xcam in your download folder. Just uninstall the Xcam and then move the Xcam to system app, fix permission, install from there and reboot.
Thanks for quick reply but I didn't have xcam in d/l folder.
Sorry, wasn't finished...
I uninstalled xcam and rebooted - cam app still messed up. I click on cam icon and get black screen with the "back" icon in lower left corner. I haven't changed anything camera related for weeks. I have installed LG apps from Jasmine OP but do not see com.LG.cam in link2sd app. I'm stumped.
Did you move the Xcam app to system app, change permission, installed in system app?
I uninstalled the xcam app. The native cam app is still hosed. Am I missing something? Probably so....

Maybe something broke the camera app, did you try flashing a rom or a backup with a working camera app, pull the .apk from it, flash your backup your having trouble with and re-install the apk? just a thought....
I wound up throwing in the towel and flashed SkyDragon 2.0.1 and am loving it. I tried everything I could think of after doing what android-incredible suggested and still had no camera. Clean flashing a ROM was my final choice but glad I did. Camera is back.
I don't know if others are facing the similar problem but it has turned my life into hell after the new update. I will list down the issues on ALL ROMS after the new OOS 3 update with bootloader in my device.
I had issue in accessing storage, which means gallery, file explorer or literally any app crashes when I try to access from the storage, be it internal or external sd card.
Couldn't use the latest snapchat at all, can't post in story, can't save any snap, can't upload from camera roll. It was just a dead end. However I could only post into story with a older Snapchat version, still due to storage access issue, I couldn't save or upload from Camera Roll
Facebook picture upload would ocassionally crash the app.
Couldn't take more than 1 picture in latest youcam app, storage issue would crash the app.
Gallery apps fail to generate thumbnail previews.
All these above problems caused permanent storage access unavailability until I rebooted device.
Need to charge my device twice as Battery runs faster than Usain Bolt.
So finally after a lot of tingling, I finally downgraded my device to OOS 2.1.3 with TWRP 2.8.7. Trust me it's very stable, bug free and battery friendly. Though I miss the new security patches features and snappy feel from Android 6 & 7.
The above problems are not happening in 2.1.3. I can use latest snapchat, youcam & facebook without any issue at all. Is there any way to prevent these issues on new Android OS in my device ? I believe it's not a device issue as 2.1.3 is running very stable and bug less.
Never had any of those issues on OOS 3 update. Think you might of gone wrong somewhere maybe.

I am really eager to find that out. I have almost tried every ROM on the new bootloader. Except MOOS 2.0 or something, each and every ROM had this bug, even official OOS 3.1.4. Any idea what might went wrong ? The bugs are not reproducing in OOS 2.1.3 though. Which makes me believe that my device is ok.

Think I figured it out for you. You are on really old OOS2 build you need to flash 2.2.3 before you update to OOS3. It was made for the update to MM.
Are you sure you gave the good permission. On MM, when you first launch an app, it should ask you for it. Maybe a bug appear at one point.
You should go to menu settings / app / 3 dots menu at the top right an reset app prefs.
Then re open app one by one.
You can try first without your SD inside to see if it happens again.
Hi guys, I have a problem with the MIUI stock camera. After the installation of google cam, and so after the writing of the code "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1", my stock cam doesn't work anymore if it has the HDR enabled. With the HDR disabled it works.
I've tried to delete the code but the problem remains.
How can I fix this bug?
Thank you.

try writing "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=0" and uninstalling the google cam
Thank you for the answer. I've tried but nothing.
There are other ways?

After writing the code @MyNameIsRage has mentioned reboot your phone. Once MIUI finishes booting go to app settings and open MIUI camera app's settings, force stop it and then clear data. Now launch the camera and check whether the functions are restored.
I do that but nothing again.
Every options work but only the HDR has this problem.
I don't know.
Apparently this is a problem with MIUI..don't try to install GCam on MIUI..I always advice people not to do that...it has always been buggy and breaks some function or the other.
On a custom ROM yes you can go ahead and try GCam and it will work flawlessly.
Now in your case I think your only option is to factory reset the phone. So take backup of your data and factory reset it. Your problem will be gone.

try clearing cache and deleting app data
Ok I understand. For example with the ROM "Pixel Experience" GCam works at the same time with the default camera?
Thank you.

Yes. And it's not just Pixel Experience...any AOSP based ROM should work fine...that's the purpose of custom AOSP based ROMs. They're more Mod friendly for the users and more debug friendly for the developers.
If you decide to flash a custom ROM please do a thorough research on flashing and understand how it works..it is very simple and easy..just takes a few trials and errors at first.
Ah ok. Thank you for the information.
I've already tried to install the "Pixel Experience" but the Google's logo remains stuck.
Can you help me?

How did you flash the ROM? Mention in detail every step that you carried out.
I've copied the rom in the internal storage. Then with TWRP I've cleaned the chace, dalvin cache and system, and after all I've launched the installation.
My device is also rooted.
The ROM is "PixelExperience_mido-8.1.0-20180121-0047-OFFICIAL".
I don't know what I wrong.
P.S. I've have Redmi Note 4 4/64 snapdragon version.

You didn't wipe data in twrp??? Wipe {system+data+cache+dalvikcache} and then install pixel experience it will work.
Data is not your personal data, it's partition for your installed apps..your personal data is stored in internal storage so don't worry about wiping data partition.
Ah ok. Now I try to follow your instructions.
Thank you.
OK. It works well like the camera too.
Thank you all guys!:highfive:
