Hello Guys.
So it all started with me, flashing my first custom rom, the SamsungS4CHD something like that..
It worked fine.. tho it did have a few bugs. At first it didn't recognize my SIM Card.
Secondly, and MAINLY, i noticed that the camera was dark greenish.. and the moment i pressed snap.
Boom, Hanged. And i had to force close it, and then when I restarted, I got the error- Can't Connect to Camera.
No third party apps did the trick, so I flashed the TurboHD Rom and it worked flawlessly.
Then I wanted to try Fly116, and I did, and I was greeted with the same problem.
It struck me that the s4 rom and the fly116 both had 13 mp cameras while the turbohd has an 8mp camera.
Please help me out, this bug is killing me :/
I've searched and searched with no luck..
Reply soon guys..

And which rom should be on the phone when I change? the problem one, or the one im using.?
And thanks for replying..!

I am the proud owner of a SGS3
But I'm not the biggest fan of touchwiz and I love everything about 4.2!
So like many others, I flash a 4.2 custom ROM. AOKP 4.2 build 2, to be exact.
After flashing, I loved it. Everything about it was just perfect. It was fast, light, easy to use, and FAST! But then I go to take a picture. And boom.
"Can't Connect to Camera"
I had no idea what to do, so I did the first thing that comes to mind. reboot. But sadly, this solved nothing. So of course I re-flash my touchwiz ROM to see if the ROM was the problem. And the Touchwiz camera worked perfectly. Later on when I had time, I tested it out again, and had the same problem. So I downloaded a camera app, and same thing. I even flashed a different Camera.zip for God's sake! I've searched for the past week for fixes and every one I tried just failed! So now I'm really done with Touchwiz and want to customize the look and feel of my phone (which is one of the reasons I like AOKP!)
It seems that my camera only works on Touchwiz ROMs! :crying:
I also tried another ROM this time running 4.1.2 thinking maybe it was just a bug in 4.2! But sadly, the same error message.
I am open to ANY ideas right now and would be very thankful for some replys.
I NEED TO GET OFF OF TOUCHWIZ AND BACK TO 4.2!
Thank you as always!
EDIT: So I think I figured out the problem. I was flashing a 4.2 camera .zip file and i guess it was messing up the permissions. So I disabled it. Now it is working perfectly so far. Yesterday i switched over to a 4.1.2 ROM hoping it would fix it and so then i flashed this 4.2 camera and then after about a day of use, it messed up the permissions.
So to fix it if anyone is have that problem, disable the camera app you flashed, reboot into recovery, ADVANCED - FIX PERMISSIONS
all done.

If I uninstall gallery apk which is including camera aaplication, how I will make a shoot ?
hye
actually,what application did you dissable?from the touchwiz or the custom rom? :laugh:
well, it works for me, thanks a lot dude.
This is a file permissions problem, between the camera and the gallery apps. It is fixable, I had the ability to force a 'fix permissions on boot' in init.d, but are various ways to do it.

Same question
I get this error "Can't connect to camera'
I tried using a 3rd party camera from play store, but still when I try to film, it freezes and 2 sec later it closes. when opening it, error.
I read somewhere that bootloader must be working good with rom? I don't wan't to brick my phone with messing around with odin.
Factory reset doesn't work, I always do a clean install on carbon rom update.
PS: I am using Dalvik runtime, maybe fix on ART?
I don't know how to fix, used rom & kernel in my signature.
same problem with art...

if it works properly in ROM provided Camera App ??
if it works then try again installing app again..
if not then.. try different 4.4.2 ROM.. or ask in OP's thread if all users have this problem..??
if only you are having this problem then.. start from the scratch again.. and install ROM again by following steps provided in OP's post..
if still didn't work try in any other ROM or stock ROM..

If your ROM is based on CM, it's the ROM issue. Know for a loooooooooong time.

Billions of fixes have been implemented, but apparently non of them work. If u get lucky, it'll work. So I'll recommend reflashing till u get it to work.

hi sir. sorry forgot to include. i am just using stock rom. i tried installing that cyanogen app, but cant figure out on how to install a custom ROM, phone not supported,
So if you're on stock the cyanogen camera won't do the trick. I know it sounds redundant but have you restarted your phone or downloading a 3rd party camera?

If back button stops working sometimes, try opening keyboard(xperia or aosp whichever) and then try again to see if back button works or not.
If it works- it means your keyboard gets killed and as a result back button stops working or you have greenified keyboard or it occurs after you exit from heavy games. Try it

Can someone explani me these steps better? do i need to go to CWM to install the zips? or just with the flashtool? Im newbie in this
Fix 9: By flashing Real ICS R6: (Credits: Kenzeu ; here)
Steps:
1. Flash .62 firmware for your device
2. Flash rage kernel for gingerbread
3. Flash Real ICS R6 rom (choose the wrong device)
4. Reboot (don't pull the battery, boot it. If it's no booting for nearly 3 minutes, pull battery and go on)
5. Flash the stock firmware for your device
6. Touch should work now!

Real ICS R6 rom should be in your memory card
First flash 0.62 ftf file using flashtool program
Now flash rage kernel using flashtool program
Go to CWM, flash Real ICS rom...... but select wrong device e.g if your mobile is mini pro, select satsuma(active) as your phone
Reboot (don't pull the battery, boot it. If it's no booting for nearly 3 minutes, pull battery and go on)
Flash again 0.62 ftf using flashtool program
Check if touch is working now
If unsuccessfull, try other methods.. no choice:crying:
If all methods fail, then only repair the touchscreen. By friend also had sam problems but after such tedious process his touchscreen worked finally

cam depends on lg framework , cm uses default android framework, so no, unless one port all the work
if a rom doesnt work , just installen a new one or redownload or other version etc
if your realy out of the head just reinstall default rom and start over
not booting can have so many isseus , its just to simple as get a rom that you know that sould work as everybody is using it.
afcorse you can have user error like not have been wiping and other smale things you get to know when you do rom flashing

CM 12 issues
Hello seen your post and thought I may be able to help... After I first rooted my G3 the first ROM I wanted to try was CM. I tried cm11 Eos first worked like a charm so I thought about trying cm 12 well I ran into problems. Third time was a charm it would try to boot and my phone would just shut off or would never stop loading I was confused. So instead of downloading the ROM on my PC and dropping onto storage I reload stock backup and downloaded straight from browser in my phone. Now I'm not sure why but it worked so either I got two bad downloads or transfer from PC to phone corrupted the file either way it worked and cm12 is bomb as hell I also found a port of quick remote and lg camera but the cm camera is fine and quick remote takes a little tinkering to work but I'm on night lies and so far no bugs for me Bluetooth WiFi GPS all work haven't tried nfc but I may just to see... If you have any questions let me know I freaked when I could not get it working but seen too many people saying it worked great so I didn't give up...
