Hi everyone,
I hope this is the right forum, this is my first thread
I am having a problem with ANY AOSP rom I ve installed, no matter wich kernel I try with the rom. When taking a picture with flash in auto mode or ON mode, the phone shuts off and I ve to pull out my battery to reboot. It happens 8/10 times. With flash OFF it works OK
I ve reading lots of threads of people with similar problem even in different devices (nexus, etc). The weird thing is that in tw rom (wanamlite) or any stock sammy rom, the camera and flash works flawless.
I ve tried almost everything. I really want to switch to CM or PA with Halo and this is backing me down.
I ve read in other threads that sometimes is has something to be with the battery but I ve tried 3 different batteries, 2 original and a chinese one, tried taking pictures with battery full, battery low.. and still shutting off on AOSP and flawless on touchwiz.
I ve tried every single camera app in the store. All shutting off my phone in AOSP and working in touchwiz.
however I discovered that with the flash in TORCH MODE (allways on) I can take pictures without any problem. Tasker has an option to take pictures and set the flash to torch and this is what I am using. However, its anoying to use this workaround because with tasker I cannot see what I am taking photo at. And with a camera app that supports torch mode, the flash is allways on, not only when press the take photo button.
I am trying to make tasker turn flash on, press take picture button, and turn flash off, so I can create a scene over the camera app button to make tasker run this task (or use overlays to make a floating widget)
I managed to find the tasker way to press the take photo buton (input keyeven 27), and I tried to use tasker and TESLAflashlight to turn on and off the flash before an after the picture, but teslaled doesnt work while the camera is in use by the camera app.
However, if I use the system widget to toogle flashlight or the flashlight app that comes with CM, the flash on and off switch works while the camera is open!
The problem is that I cannot make tasker interact with the flashlight widget (it is not a shorcut so i cannot use autoshortcut)
Is there a shell command to run in terminal emulator that can turn on/off the flashlight while the camera app is in use? That would solve everything for me..
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, wonderfull comunity, and sorry for my bad english..

Yes I ve tried that mod, and also tried a port of the tw camera (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2370869)
Same problem with both.
Also tried Camera zoom Fx, Camera 360, Pro HDR, Camera JB+, Camera MX, etc... also same problem..

All those camera's that you also tried, just use the existing software and libraries so if your main cam was not working, they definitely wouldn't either.
The TW port isn't fully functional. You'd need to stay with AOSP cameras.
When you say every AOSP ROM you tried, could you name some? It might be a camera firmware issue. There is a thread about camera firmware somewhere.

I ve tried paranoid android 3.97, cyanogenmod 10.1 , temasek 4.2.2 and temasek 4.3, cdroid, and in each test I tried siyah kernel, googy max, and of course the kernels that comes with that roms by default..
I ve also tried the huawei camera..
I ve updated the camera firmware in the way this threads mentions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113526)
NOW MY FIRMWARE IS LIKE THIS
Phone/CAM FW Ver Check:
REAR CAMERA:
Cam FW VER: ZDFF03 / (I used to have ZDFE02)
Phone FW Ver: ZDFI02
FRONT CAMERA
CAM&PHONE: S5K6A3
The same problem of phone shutting off used to happened before I updated the firmware..
Really driving me nuts
EDIT:
Now I ve updated the firmware once again and now It is like this
Cam FW VER: ZDFI02
Phone FW Ver: ZDFI02
booted into temasek and the problem persist
:/

Nevermind bro, thank you for your kindness..
UPDATE:
I ve realized that the problem has place only when my battery is below 60%. I am thinking thas the problem has to be with battery/voltage/etc..
The weird thing is that I ve got 3 batteries and in all 3 of them happens the same. And stranger than that, is the fact that on touchwiz I can take pictures with flash even when 5% battery.(so its not a hardware problem)
Maybe AOSP roms have a different way of managing voltages. I ve tried to use steaks and reduce cpu/gpu voltages a little but it didnt help.
I will buy a new battery different to the original ones that i have and try again.
If someone is interested I share my workaround.
I use tasker and use "take picture" using torch mode (I made an scene over the shutter button of the aosp camera app so when I click on it tasker takes the picture). The problem here is that the pictures are stored in tasker folder, so sometimes it takes a while to appear in the gallery.
Or the other method I am using is the following. I used overlays to put a invisible widget toggle of the system flashlight on top left corner of aosp camera, and another invisible widget over the shutter button to trigger a tasker task. The tasker task consist of a couple of console lines that simulates myself touching the screen, so it simulates a touch that toggles de flashlight, then simulates a camera button press and then again simulates a click over the flashlight widget to turn it off.
I know this sucks, but is the only way so far
I ve managed to find a workaround with tasker only
su -c "echo 1 > /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash" (turn flash on)
input keyevent 27 (take photo)
su -c "echo 0 > /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash" (turn flash off)
The result is pretty the same that the camera flash on.. no blurry pictures, torch duration the same, etc.. so thats it for me..
I hope this can be usefull for people having the same problem.
I tried taking a picture at 30% with "A better camera" with flash and it worked on CM, but with the default camera app the phone goes black
This has been pestering me for quite a while now, at first it started below 20% battery, then 30% and now 50% ... I've ordered a new battery yesterday and I have it charging now, will know when its below 50% when it's any better.
Maybe it has to do with the camera firmware, but I doubt it.
Solved. Was the battery in my case. The 3 batterys. I think that messing around with charging voltaje in stweaks made my batterys gone bad. I ve ordered 3 chinese new batterys and now never shutsoff

Does anyone know of an app that will Use the HD2 camera, and possibly the led flash, to display a live magnified image on screen? Essentially turning the HD2 into a magnifying glass (possibly with light)?
Ive got a friend who is partially sighted and often uses a magnifying glass with a built in 'torch' light, to read print/text while out and about.... having an app that would do the same thing could prove very handy at times.
Anyone know of such a thing? Everytime I try searching I just get apps that magnify whatever is on the screen and cant magnify a live image from the camera.
Thanks in advance.
iam sorry for asking, but could using the zoom feature of camera with flash on...doesnot serve the purpose ?
Thanks for the suggestion... However I had already thought of this... The main problem being that my flash will not light until I take a picture.
Previously my flash would stay lit during preview if the flash ON option was selected.... but this is no longer the case (possibly since flashing to EnergyRom).
Plus having a dedicated app would be more convenient.
Cheers for the suggestion though :thumbup:

Put it in video mode and you can force the flash on or use torch button and leave it running when you start the camera up.
yes, you can use the torch application and keep it on while you use your camera
The LED turns off if the Torch app (Flashlight) is not the active application.
You can do what optiknervz suggested which is use the Video mode and then turn on the flash, unless of course you want a still photograph of whatever it is that you are trying to zoom into.

yea cos flashlight is no match for torch button.
yes ..use the torch button, not the flashlight app..........i can use my torch even by clicking my quicklink and it stays on even while i use any other app and only gets switched off once i disable it by pressing the quicklink again.
Hey guys just got a few quick questions, I know there is a likelihood this has been discussed elsewhere but I've not found the resources.
As much as I enjoy seeing a green battery icon ... it isn't of much use without a value. What's the best way to change this icon BUT without flashing a custom ROM, I like my ROM the way it is.
It appears I messed up in uninstalling the apk files ont he stock ROM as I removed the Task Manager, what apps can I use o replace this. I just want something I can use to switch between apps and is BOUND to the home button (long press).
I'm considering removing the camera app and sticking with Camera360 as my ONLY camera app, would this be a good idea. I'm assuming the latter has the originals feature set and much much more so I'm not losing anything at all. Given I've updated the firmware the quality should improve regardless of which app I use right?
Can someone please explain to me why there are 4 voice apps?
On my Desire I remember I could tell the phone NOT to sleep if it were charging, but I can't seem to find this option anywhere, does anyone know the exact location or is there an alternative app?
Is it just me, or does the normal OTA software update option not work? I tried it several times yesterday and I either got a failed connection or it just hung and did nothing ...
On my Desire I had a custom ROM and when I pressed the off button I got an option to reboot, any idea where I can get that option back?
I know since 2.2 they removed the vib->silent->normal settings when changing volume but I really need to use silent sometimes anyone know a way round this?
That's most of my questions for now, thanks for your help guys :-D.
This is interesting because I am very interested in most of these questions as well. Here is my opinions on each.

-There is battery icon mods, search for it in the Theme section

-The only Rom I know of that can change the long press of the home button is CM7.

-The camera app is safe to remove. I would try Titanium and freeze it first if you're worried.

-You might want to detail these better.

-I dont think this comes in the stock rom. I'm on Cognition which has it.

As per the camera, backups aren't my concern more of getting the best quality and featureset.
I will look into tasker, though I was looking for something very light as I only need this one feature.
Rather stick with stock ROM for now, at least until I get a JIG
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Sorry about that thanks.
Just as a quick update, reinstalled the Task manager app and placed the apk back in the system/app folder and it seems to work. Also the battery icon has been updated and looked great :-D.
[*]As per the camera, backups aren't my concern more of getting the best quality and featureset.
I think you underestimate Titanium, it does more than backups.
Oh I don't use Titanium for my backups, I like always starting from fresh, so my contacts, etc are backedup but apps and settings I always prefer doing from scratch.
I tried Camera 360 and unless I'm mistaken the quality seemed LESS than the default app, which was a let down. Maybe I will try again.

karan999's KF3 stock ROM with CF-Rooted KF3 kernel works perfectly, only concern is I feel like when I'm using the browser that the % drops like a rock in contrast to when I'm just doing normal activities like calls and text. In fact I can speak for quite some time and there's hardly a % change.

When you are browsing with WiFi in Stock browser then battery drains at a rate of 1% per 3/4 minutes. Try Opera, it's a little bit of less hogger
Regards.
I've been using 3G/HSDPA, no WiFi access here. I think on data it is about that about of % decrease for me. I can survive with it as I don't browse on the go much but at home it feels like a disappointment.
Anyone figured out how to replace the task manager for long press home button?
Alright, so I've had my galaxy s2 for about 2 weeks and it worked perfectly, I've shot some really beautiful photos, but now suddenly it wont autofocus anymore.
What I already tried:
-reset cam settings to default
-do multiple factory / hard resets
-return to the default stock rom
Nothing works... The focus is stuck at about 20-30 cm from the phone, i've tried all the focus modes, maybe it was stuck on macro, but I didn't manage to solve the problem....
Could anyone help me out please? I'll try everything to avoid getting it changed since I'd have to buy a Jig from ebay first to reset the custom rom counter...
Bump! I really need to fix this problem guys!
Right one thing you could try is reflashing your camera firmware.
first type *#34971539# then the first option in the menu press that and see what your camera firmware is.
Next goto here
http://www.4shared.com/file/uMStvHzj/fw_camera.html
download this and look for the camera firmware that matches yours.
next when you find the one that matches your camera firmware put it on your internal sd, type *#34971539# & i think it's the second option hit that and wait for 3 mins for it to flash don't mess with ya phone while it updating.
if that fails to sort it then it looks like it a jig and a return to samsung.
i had similar bug with my camera, sometimes it wouldn't focus at all, until i tweak the settings of the camera even thou it didn't helped most of the time
but this did solve my problem, thank you
I dont want to start a new thread so i`m gonna write here sine it's related.
How can i get the SGS2 camera to take photos only when the autofocus square is green?
Or to make the camera app actually focus alone without me pressing on the screen to focus? I have stock camera app, no mods or tweaks.

Same here..And I don't know why CM touch screen sensitivity always have different 'feel' compared to stock ROM, without notice I'm always touch the screen more tightly to prevent miss touch. I think you guys understand well
Ps. Since this ROM is nearest to official then I'll tell more CM bug:
The bass sound's ugly than stock. You can check with mort player with same equalizer (without DSP mgr of course). Also the equalizer freq change from 5 freq (stock) to 6 freq (CM) and if you slide bass booster on mort, the sound more awkward
Um..oh. Laggy gallery! LOL

Not only for messages but when someone is talking to you in WhatApp and others, with all notifications. I think this is to warn you that something happened when the phone was in standby. It's not a bug imo.
The same thing happens with others CM7 roms that I've tested and the AOSP too.
but until you use them do not light. remember that in another CM7 ROM, this does not happen if I went to Settings-> CyanogenMod-> Interface-> LED Notification, except that in this rom, there is no menu Led Notification
is a very good rom but i have a problem, i test smartass, v2, conservative and never enter in deep sleep always 245mhz (my min frequency).
ps: sorry my bad english.

*edit Fixed the problem with market icon
Great ROM so far.
text messaging touch goes rumbled, maybe coz of sensitivity... hope to fix it on next release :clap: more power to Frozen Ace Team...
After two days of usage, I would like to report that this ROM has battery drain issues. Much more than the vo-1 version of CM 7.2
wifi?
Wifi does not work for me. It doesnt scan. When I turn it on in the notifications bar it just turns itself off again after a minute or so.
In the settings the same thing happens. (sometime here it even force-closes)
I found this in the ROM-Thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263292):

Wi-Fi works fine, but when you turn it ON you can`t see all points, as on stock FW. You must go to the Wireless setting and insert your password there."
When I tried several times to type in the password and SSID it still didnt connect and just turned wifi off again.

glad to know that.... try using the onscreen button for macro camera.... also in some cases my phone doesn't auto-focus... so i just slightly depress the hardware camera button for it to manually focus and then use the onscreen button.....
also make sure your phone is not too CLOSE to the OBJECT you want to FOCUS too
i found a bug...when i press and release camera button, for focusing, four or five times, camera app stops responding, and then i cannot use no more camera, i must restart phone...the video recording quality is poor, very few frames, choppy playback...i hope this bugs will be resolved in future versions of CM

ya this is the new one but only the bug you talking about is fixed.... the camera is laggy...
but once you play the captured video on ur pc it is not laggy....
i guess the video decoder on the phone is not right or something.....
VOILA
can i upgrade to fxp 125 or i must flash the new version? do i must flash kernel again, ir just fxp?

they recommend that you must flash the new kernel....
btw http://www.mediafire.com/?bttx5mfd8qqna62
this has the kernel and gapps and rom in one file you just need to flash via flashtool....
i found it in the fxp125 cm7.2 article
i loose all my apps and settings :-(
i left my phone on charger about 4.5 hrs, and my battery was overheated, 50c, it charged about 70%, it last about two hours...i suppose that CM7 dont stop battery charging like stock Rom, right? I didnt know that, i hope it didnt impact my battery health...
by the way Rohhit thnx for answering all my questions, you was very helpfull, i will try new fxp125...
hey
no no.... it battery wud heat up few times in the start mine did too...
nothing to worry that about.... you can always wipe battery stat's that can help too...
plus it's not on the coding of the rom.... once charged the hardware stops chargin the phone anymore.... and if you r in a silent environment you cud hear a slight noise from the charger....thats it saying NO MORE CHARGING
is there a way not to loose all aplications on every rom flashing? And is there a way to extend battery time, i read on some post that i must change some cpu setting and battery should last longer...
but why then my batery depeated so quickly, less than two hours, on standby ??
easy pesy

first of all on the play store search for battery calibration app.....
do as the app says charge 100% then deplete till 0% then charge till 100% again....
second of all goto settings->cyanogenmod settings->cpu settings->governors->and select interactive->plus select set on boot and
interactive is the best governor out there gives max battery with max cpu efficiency....
as for losing all the apps... download titanium pro i would suggest download the full version from some torrent site....
plus in fxp rom's there is an option of modifying the settings of the apps.. like can they access the internet or not... can they access the messages or not....
its in cyanogenmod settings application.... permission management....
select it and then ban the apps that support ADs.....
VOILA
