Greetings,
On my S9+ (Exynos) camera blinking green when recording video after flashing custom ROM. On lower FPS (30) blinking slower. After first try of video recording camera still blinking until restarting app. What can I do?
Thank you in advance
Same thing is happening to me. I've used LOS 15.1 6/12 and 6/19 with the same problem. I updated to the latest stock ROM to get past the black camera problem, and now this. I don't see a fix for this listed in the next nightly either.

Thank you for your reply. I think that's only LineageOS's trouble, after flashing another ROM all is fine

Which ROM did you end up flashing?
I tried the June 27 update of LOS and the problem persists.

This one https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...elopment/g96xf-ard4-rooted-stock-rom-t3789326 after flashing my modem and bl was updated automatically
Before that I flashed https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ross-device-development/rom-lightrom-t3770243 but there after try to root I have camera issue with any camera app and stock. Maybe that's because of old bl and modem, so will try to flash it after ROM above
samsung s9 locked after reset ?
The problem also persists when using Carbon ROM, all Stock based ROMs I tried so far worked well with the Camera

Thanks for the link. Very helpful for the stock rooted ROM as well as the firmware and vendor flashes. I have gone to this for now as well, at least until folks report no issues with the camera in LOS. I use this for a camera more than a phone.

If you mean OEM Unlock, after first unlocking it wasn't lock again never except when you flash stock without any modification with multifile ROM.

Had the same problem. Now I use OpenCamera, and switched on the option to use Android-5-Camera2-Api.
Flickering doesn't occur anymore (in this app).

Ok, so ive had a couple of problems with my recently bought Sgs2, ive got all the other problems fixed except this one: when i turn on the camera app, the flash goes on and off once, the same happens when i turn off the camera. Its a very fast flash that occurs.. it doesnt matter what camera app i use, it does it everytime.. the flash does work properly during camera use if needed, and works normally as a torch.
It doesnt bother me much, but would be nice to get fixed..
Any ideas?
If your using a custom jb rom then it's normal. It's a known bug.

Im using SlimICS 4.2+ Siyah 5.0.1
So he said.... That if You using not stock rom flash bug be...
Looks like he said: if its a custom JB rom, the bug occurs. Im using ICS and the same thing happened before i even flashed a custom rom. The phone was running a stock Samsung GB rom then..
"He" has a name
And if u said it happened before flashing roms, Then it must be a hardware issue.

I have the same problem, that the flash will light up shortly when the camera app closed, and when I read the last comments it seems that this is a known issue for quite a while.
How does it come that this is not fixed yet. I'm using custom roms now for a few month now and from the beginning I was wondering about the strange flash behaviour compared to the stock rom.
Is it because there is still no official release from Samsung for JB or why is it so difficult to fix? Are the camera drivers closed source?

Guys, it has got nothing to do with the hardware, its a random one that happens with all ICS and JB based custom roms

If you read the whole thread , i had the problem before custom roms with a 100% stock Samsung GingerBread rom..

have u tried flashing a Stock ICS rom (v4.0.3) and seen for the issue
if not give it a try and see, just to confirm whether its really a hardware issue or a software one
nothing to loose though, if the problem gets resolved for u it would be fine right
do a clean wipe before installing.

I used to get that on my x10i with certain roms.Definitely a software problem.
Same issue here, came about randomly day before yesterday. LED flashes once, quickly, whenever something tries to activate it.
Only ever used stock soft/firmware, and Chainfire's kernel. Cleared all caches, tried factory reset, problem persisted.
Flashed to whatever the latest ICS is for H3G today, problem still persists, I shall try official kernel tomorrow, see if that fixes it -- I don't hold much hope.

I'm using hellybean 4.2.1 and I don't have this bug!!
I always use AOKP roms on my devices and since I have the i9300 I start to get "Can't connect to the camera" occasionally when I open the camera app. I have to restart the device to use the camera (or the torch) again.
I suppose it was a rom related problem, but while upgrading from 4.1.2 to 4.2.1 (so new camera app) I saw the problem remain identical and I start investigate.
The problem is on the camera firmware, that is not placed on the filesystem, so it didn't changes between flashes.
EDIT: the problem is not completely solved, but is seems less frequent than before...
The only way to change it seems to flash a samsung stock rom (or a based one) and follow this steps:
dial *#34971539# in stock dialer
check your camera vendor using "Phone/CAM FW Ver Check" (the first two letter of "Cam FW Ver")
if you have a ZD* firmware download this file: View attachment ZDFF03.zip (thanks to GrayJack)
if you don't have a ZD* firmware you have to try yourself downloading from here or here (please report your results and I will update this post)
unzip the file SlimISP.bin in the root of your internal memory
dial *#34971539# again
upgrade yur camera fw using "Phone to CAM FW Write (Rear)"
restore your favorite rom
optional: press thanks/donate button :good:
Here's my tests on ZD camera + 4.2.1 AOKP
ZDFE02: frequent "Can't connect to the camera"
ZDFF03: good
ZDFI02: this is the most recent, but camera force closes
Hi,
i'm having the same issue, and I made a topic about it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37325700#post37325700
Any idea of what I'm doing wrong? I followed your instructions, but the FW write button stays disabled?
you have a ZH* firmware? which file you try to use?
the one attached in my post is for ZD* cameras and in the GrayJack/4PDA threads there is no trace of this vendor.
maybe there's a compatibilty check that keep the flash butto disabled and maybe you have a new hardware that didn't have an older firmware to flash?
It Works!
Heya, just wanted to let you know that this FW really fixed the camera issues on my S3.
I was running ZDFE02 and after updating to ZDFF03 all problems were gone.
Running CM10.1 now with Camera 4.2 and Photo Sphere.
Thank you for your great work!

Re: [SOLVED] "Can't connect to the camera" on CM/AOKP roms
When you say that with the FW trick the camera works perfect, does it include touch to focus with flash enabled?

hi there,
first a big thx for you @c3k for finding the time to investigate the issue for all the no SAMMY roms which the cam is most likely the only disadvantage over the SAMMY firmware !
i've flashed stock rom dialed the no. and got an earlier cam+phone firmware GDFE02 on both cam+phone FW, i've applied the update at the thread you linked to and now i'm running both phone and cam FW with: ZDFF03.
i've restored my jellybam nand but unfortunately the issue persists "as usual".
i tried to clear data and dalvik cache+fix the permissions and clear the gallery(aka camera app) data as well.
after rebooting i'm still getting the problem.
i guess it the fix doesn't work at every phone for some reason(i have the i9300 off course).
if anyone have any suggestions i'd love to hear
cheers
i try to dial *#34971539# in stock dialer but my GS3 return nothing.

I think samsung may have changed the S3 camera in lastest hw versions, and maybe it has no more an upgradable firmware.
If this is correct the only way is work on the aosp source to have a better comunication with this new hardware, but I don't know how hard it is, if is possible and how many i9300 camera vendor / version exists,,,
When and where you buy your device? (is it i9300, right?)

Can someone help to fix the camera on my galaxy s3?
Same problem here
I'm glad I'm not the only one having this problem.
This camera issue happens on every ROM I flash with the exception of the Stock ROMs.
I am now re-flashing my AOKP 4.2.1 ROM that I had running a little while ago. It seems the problem is with every ROM but the stock ones, which is a shame considering I'm not the biggest touchwiz fan and I love AOKP.
So does anyone know of any fix? the error only happens when I take a picture. I really dont know what to do. I am open to any suggestions.
Thanks, as always.

The kernel version should match the firmware version. There is a fix in my thread, maybe it can solve your problem. You should make a backup though, no idea on which Rom, kernel you are.

Hey guys,
right now there are lots oft oreo Roms supporting mido, but everytime i flashed one (like cardinal which is working for many users) i cant connect to my home wifi network. It tries to connect, then the signal is dropping and it says "saved" again. On other phones running oreo this wifi is working perfectly. I already disabled IPv6 and it didnt help. So I hope anyone knows how to fix it!
Same here, i had problems connecting to hidden WiFi in every oreo rom i tested. By the way what firmware did you flash when installing your Rom
I have this problem ...happens with Oreo and sometimes with nought
Just tried to install Pixel Experience, Aosp Extended and LineageOs, still same wifi problem with all roms.
Has anyone been able to fix it?

Yeah, I have flashed firmwares since they were extracted and posted here. By the way, I also noted that none of that firmware has helped me with the signal drop issue that was reported since LineageOs 14.1
