Possible Cause of Camera White Screen - Gingerbread - Streak 5 General

I installed DSC 0.61B today. I'm reasonably pleased with its performance, except for 3G not wanting to wake up with the rest of the phone (a known issue). Besides that issue I encountered a problem that plagued me when using StreakDroid. An issue crops up where the camera display turns white, rendering the camera and all apps that depend on the camera useless. It took me three hours to pin down the issue, but I believe I have found it.
Something in LBE Privacy Guard 2.x is causing the camera to cut out on my Streak. Don't ask me exactly what in the app is causing the problem. All I know is that I need to find a copy of the 1.x APK and install it to see if that version also causes the camera to cut out.
To everyone else that has encountered the camera white screen of death, post here whether you use LBE or not, and what version.
EDIT: LBE 1.x also causes the camera screen of death. Guess I'll have to use Droidwall instead.

Yes, the same to me?
My camera display turns white screen, but I dont know how to fix it.
Thanks,

Are you running LBE Privacy Guard? If so, you have to do a factory reset and not install it. If you're not running LBE one of your apps is not compatible with Gingerbread. You'll need to factory reset and install your apps one by one, checking the camera each time. The app that breaks the camera is likely the last app you install. Once you find it, then factory reset (again!) and don't install the incompatible app. Using nandroid backups do not work. At least they didn't for me.
I wasn't kidding when I said it took three hours to pin things down.

Same problem here:
DSC 0.62b & LBE Privacy Guard
==> white screen when using camera
==> white screen when trying to play youtube videos
In LBE Privacy Guard I unchecked "Start automatically at phone boot"
After a restart, camera & youtube worked fine.
Obviously, the LBE app causes the issue.
Unfortunately, Droidwall can't compete with LBE Privacy Guard's features.
So let's find a solution.

i have DSC 62b and without this problem, I have this problem only if I install Chainfire3D and his drivers ...

That's good to know for the future. People at least won't have to do a hard reset.

Contact the developer, if you can. They seem to have no contact information on their pages. Droidwall may not be able to compete with LBE's features, but it's also not intended to. Droidwall is simply a front end for the built-in IPTables.
I will be looking into Permissions Denied by the man who put out Busybox as an alternative.

I think switching video driver mode to mdp should help.

@_n0p_: LBE Privacy Guard should function regardless of what video mode is used. While I am sure changing the video mode helps, the point is that people shouldn't have to make that change just to use the software. The fact that LBE has a bad interaction with the camera means LBE has a bug somewhere in its code.

I personally think that composition type gpu mode is quite experimental, it functions, but it's not an app fault, if it (probably) uses hw accelerated features of GPU chip, that breaks hw accelerated surfaces on camera output.
What really should be done - is fixing adreno driver/libs that are the real problem.
I've already tried some other adreno drivers with no luck so far, but as we are working on updating and improving kernel so a solution may be found in near future.

Perhaps I'm not understanding you here, so forgive me if I restate myself.
LBE Privacy Guard only deals with app permissions and has no control over other hardware or software, especially at the driver level. Yet it's interacting with the camera driver to render the screen useless? If that is the case, StreakDroid is also using the same video mode. The question is whether the other Gingerbread ROMs are encountering this problem and whether they use the video mode you and Streakdroid use.
As a side note, Permissions Denied works perfectly and has no autostart option. This means Sackradi is absolutely correct in that the LBE autostart mode has a problem. So what is the connection between LBE's autostart mode and the camera?

I got your point.
To be more specific - it's not the app that controls harware. It's a bug in video driver function, called by app.
Glad you've found a workaround.

I freeze the LBE by using titanium backup then restart, and then I defrost LBE.
Everything work fine for me until I restart my phone.
I like LBE very much, so I just do the step everytime I restart my phone.

Which essentially renders LBE useless since LBE has to be active to monitor the permissions and deny them as needed. If Permissions Denied has such a monitor, it's written so that it doesn't screw up the camera like LBE does.

I get this issue when I patched libwebcore.so with Arabic patcher. How to change the video mode?

system/build.prop
change
debug.composition.type=gpu
to
debug.composition.type=mdp

I am using Power_rom_lite and this issue was bugging me from last two days, when I installed LBE. I realised the problem during video call on Gtalk. I saw white image in place of my video but other end was able to see me without any problem, only I was not able to see myself. Changing gpu to mdp solved the problem. Thanks a lot.

Camera won't focus

Recently I found the camera fails to focus in various occasions. The image in the viewfinder stays blurry no matter how I configure the camera app (stock/3rd party). But it can capture clear close-up shots so I assume the camera is somehow fixed at macro shots. To fix this issue, I have to open something like Barcode Scanner (which will continue adjust the focus) and leave it for a couple of minutes. Then the camera will be working again for a few hours or so or until I reboot the phone.
Does anyone encounter the same issue? I would like to know whether it is hardware or software problem.
PS: I am pretty sure this is nothing related to any sort of settings/configurations.
It happen here, too...

i have no problem at all. whether i use the stock camera app, or cameraFX, my camera has no issues focusing at all.
since nobody else is actually experiencing the problem, it might be something related to a fine setting, or an application thats interfering with your camera app. why not u try a hard reset and see if solves the problem?

Thanks for your reply. Goggle often freeze and cannot focus normally.
The picture will be blur when I put the camera about 30cm away from the targets using goggle app.
Do you have the same problem? I don't know whether it's a software problem or firmware problem.

I saw many ppl meet this problem on Chinese forum even using the internal-camera app.
I think it's firmware's problem.

its quite odd that different firmwares seem to pose different problems: ie from what i noticed those running GB and EuroRetail versions seem to have a problem with the responsiveness of their hardware keyboard. AsiaRetail has a bug issue with the contacts search, and now the ME722 with a camera focus issue. what i have seen with my camera is after a reboot, when i capture a picture, the picture ends up being captured, but the capture animation freezes until i hit one of the soft keys. not really a bother but its still an issue
really, it all boils down to the same argument, that Motorola and MotoDevs really need to address these issues in fixes and updates, cuz really though some bugs arent that annoying, certain ones like a malfunctioning keyboard and a non-focusing camera can be a real pain in the a**.
@ the person tho started this thread: why not you try to flash Argen2Stone ROM? perhaps that might solve your problem?

Sadly, I am currently using Argen2Stone 1.8, but still experiencing the problem.
I tried to flash back to UK2.2, which the phone came with, but still no luck.
The "barcode scanner" trick temporarily solves my problem. Yet who wants to run it for a few minutes before taking photos?
I swear I won't purchase any Moto smartphone in the future. They simply ignore customers outside the US.

GingerDX Q&A, Known Issues, FAQ.

GingerDX FAQ​
FOR ALL THE GENERAL QUESTIONS, VISIT X8 FAQ thread
INTRO
What is so special about this ROM?
latest Android version 2.3.5, Gingerbread
SMOOTH like CM6, it's not choppy like others CM7 used to be
All the amazing FroyoBread features.
From v005 it has 3mpx camera and HQ video record with SYNC
Under constant development
New kernel built just for it
Thank you doixanh for everything you've done for our X8!
You should READ first post and second post before asking.
INSTALLATION:
Copy your "update.zip" to sd card and install with CWM recovery!
v013 and bellow, use xRecovery.
Do a full wipe if coming from other roms.
KNOWN ISSUES and Q&A
Note: below issue you can see @xxx -> this means in which version of GDX is issue present.
BUG REPORTS, KNOWN ISSUES:
NOTE THAT SENSE 3 LOCKSCREEN IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT SO YOU SHOULD EXCEPT BUGS. THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS REMAIN TO DO.
TRANSLATION ERRORS: Members here have only translated GingerDX specific settings. All other things are translated by Google or CyanogenMod so it's theirs fault if transaltion is wrong.
General CM7 bugs:
Touchscreen sometimes is not sensitive on some parts on oth Cypress and Synaptics.
Launcher Pro bug: All icons in app drawer are stacked at one place when screen orintation is changed
Check this picture.
WiFi don't work if you use LinuxDX v001 or v002.
There is a bug in the transparent status bar modifications which are made for GingerDX. It somehow breaks the visual appearance of buttons in the Photo Gallery app (which also uses transparency). The buttons are larger than they should be and they are not rendered properly, horizontal lines in random colours are partially covering them.
Accelerometer is lagging, it's not precise.
It works all right for changing screen orientation, but it's NOT good for games.
@I think it's fixed in recent releases...
Album folder shows multiple albums with the same titles.
Songs on Albums with different infos will separate them.
Check this
@v006, v007, v008, v009, v010, v011, v012, v013, v014 (??)
Custom Carrier text doesn't not appear when Lense lockscreen is choosen.
(altough I think it's not doixanhs fault, it's CM7 limitation or whatever) (???)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUGS THAT ARE FIXED IN LATEST VERSION (current: v017)
DSP manager FC.
@v016
From v012 all Camera apps shuold work fine. No Barcode scanner FC's etc...
If you use 24h clock format, Sense lockscreen will display 12h format, although 24h format is chosen in system options
When you change themes through the T-Mobile app, the theme wallpaper isn't applied. Even after a reboot, the old wallpaper remains.
Some apps can't grant root acces... even SUapp says it's granted (System app remover, Root Uninstaller etc)
FIXED IN v010
Acceleormeter is bugging.
I make a call it is backing with the screen rotated 90° and take a long while to back to 0°. I tried forcing it to rotate, and it is slow to rotate
Next track using volume rocker key work just one time (or 0) and then stops working.
@v007 (not sure for previous versions)
Some camera apps are not working correctly. (Google Goggles, Barcode Scanner..)
camera libs are replaced in v008, all camera apps work fine
There's a bug on syncing contacts with Facebook/Last.FM etc
All the accounts for FB, Viber, Skype, Whatsapp go missing after a reboot.
@v006 (some one should check this for v007)
100% brightness on v006 is incorrect.
Brightness is weird on v006 (?)
ISSUE/SOLUTION:
Issue: I don't have in-call menu (to end call, dial pad etc...) while in call.
Solution: Tick force in-call touch UI in Call settings.
Issue: Autobrightness work incorrectly.
Solution: CyanogenMod settings> Display>Automatic Backlight> check the options Use custom (light levels) and Allow light decrease. (ENABLED BY DEFAULT IN v008)
Check this thread and this picture to set up brightness the way you like.
Issue: Hide LED notification doesn't work correctly
Solution: Set manually to fix.
Issue: When I come back from airplane mode, phone does not allow me to enter PIN number.
Solution: (One or two users reported this, so.. just reboot )
Issue: When someone call me, the phone only ring one time. Is that a bug?
Solution: In v007 theres an option in CMsettings>GingerDX, check "Loop Ringtone"
Loop ringtone. It works with whatever format of your ringtone is: MP3/OGG/...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Issue: My battery drains. How to fix?
Solution: So, doixanh's phone is always connected to laptop because he's needs to develop and he can't test battery yet.
But you can FREEZE unused system apps (like email, gmail etc) with Titanium Backup, or delete from system/app.
You can use Airplane mode during the night.
Issue: LED notifications don't work, work incorrectly.
Solution: Enable succession on CM Settings menu.
CM Settings > Interface> Notification Led >Advanced > Check Succession
(This is enabled by default in v007)
Issue: WiFi problem.
Solution: Forget all remembered networks, and connect again.
Q/A:
Q: How can I set specific ringtone for one contact?
A: Open contact, press "menu" button, tap "Options" and you'll see option there. It's same for all roms around.
Q: How do I get transparent status bar?
A: In v007 in GingerDX options, tick "Semi-Transparent status bar", reboot. Note: not all launcher (or themes) support it.
Q: Do I need to do a full wipe when changing from one version to an another?
A: No, but it's recommended if you have bugs.
You can try clearing dalvik and cache first
Q: Do I need modules if I flash custom kernel?
A: No, all those features are implemented in kernel, so modules are not required. Also, modules needs to be compiled to use with new kernel.
Q: Is required to use a LinuxDX with GDX?
A: No, it's not, but doixanh recommends it!
INFOS:
Custum carrier text appers only on lockscreen as it supposed to.
In v008 fun was how to unlock Sense lockscreen, in v009 it's already there, you don't need to unlock it.
That is a first class suggestion and I am sure this is going to be a fantastic thread.

It's awesome & sweet, man!
I was tried with CM9 but no luck and have not much time to play around with it. Now you are back with it, that great!
Thumb up & keep great working.
I will try it soon
Tried, and this is my experiences:
Good things:
- Speed is incredible fast with many apps I installed on last CM7.X
- Wifi, 3G works
- Home button not work (cannot go home by pressing Home button) EDITED: Home button is go with different behavior compared with GingerBread, so press & hold it to see list of recent & running app, this way it work for me
and many things work as expected.
and Bad things:
- Screen rotation is not work well: look it start to work but mostly forced in landscape mode (in launcher, app) some time it go portrait for dialing screen, error message ... I was unchecked auto rotation options but not help.
- Call not work for me, it go end nearly immediate after I press call.
- SMS not work, EDITED: work after reboot, may it has blocked by some overload operations.
- Net monitor through some exceptions due: /proc/net/xt_qtaguid/stats not exist, we need kernel module for this stuff.
- Cam not work (of course )
I don't see where to customize Cyanogen such as fast switch widget on notification bar, look like we are missing Cyanogen Settings
I have problem with IO schedule in CM7 and was remove dalvik-cache from list of app2ext startup script and it solved 50% of mine. I used `lsof` to see what's going to use /sdcard & /sd-ext and see that almost operations come from background apps like launcher, theme. I think we should avoid to use bind mount to SD's ext partition to get better speed. Also use `vmstat` command will see sometime 1-3 applications block IO process and it will cause IO wait almost full (about > 90).
Anyone face problem like me? and what's solution you guys was used to solve it?
Will try to tweak it and fix some buggy if possible, keep the good work guys!
I see some have offered to help with cm9 but I'm dispointed in these forms .
The first thing thats needs to be fixed are sensors.
The camera will be the hardest to fix.
I believe the defry has the same sensors as our xt can someone do a port for are xt.
The worked good for me but their seems to be battery drain.

Un-check the box for: Settings --> Display --> Auto-Rotate Screen
Unless....of course....that is being overwritten by something in CM9.

we can always use a 3rd party Camera App, if we can not fix the camera, right?
or are you referring to the kernel knowing there's a camera attached to the phone?

ICS changed the camera API significantly. I don't think anyone's figured out how to use the older libraries yet. Non-functioning camera is pretty common at the moment.
We really to find a fix for the sensors first then fix other things.
Sent from my XT720 using xda premium
For camera, AFAIK we need to write a new kernel module for it as ICS is using HAL then we must have:
- /system/lib/modules/camera.ko
- /system/lib/hw/camera.sholes.so
EDITED: I've just tried with hw/camera.goldfish.so & camera.ko from MS2 then Camera app just loaded with colored box pinging, at least it not show "Cannot connect to Camera" message

Problem with google search and playing videos
Hi! I want to report bug with google search app (GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk) on enabled tablet ui. I'm on m5 v2 build with latest camera + youtube fix with LCD Density set up to 128. When i press it, it fc. It doesn't work at all. And second bug, when i record video witch Camrecorder, i can't play it from gallery. First time when i press play button it shows error, i press ok, and when i press second time play, it runs, but only sound - video is full of artifacts. By the way, this rom is exelent! It runs perfectly! And I'm sorry for my bad english.
it is a known issue with the video as we dont have full hardware decoding so the workaround is mx player arm v7 codecs and set the encoding to software as for the search bar first time i hear about it i will try it out now
Hi this thread is a great Idea. I actually have a couple of questions
if I use youtube and camera fix from the third post, Youtube app will work properly and panorama mode in camera will work but I won't be able to record videos more than 30 secs right?
also what resolution does the video camera record in? and can I change it?
thanx in advance

Thanx I applied it and testing it right now
there's no way yet the camera can record in HD right?
Its a hardware limitation the highest we can record is 800x480 and the devs are working on it
Huge Issue:
Sometimes (after a while of usage) my apps are not starting when i press their icons. The app drawer isnt working aswell then. The Icon just glows up, but nothing happens. I cant get into settings aswell. After this happens, my screen gets a SOD if i turn it off and want to wake up my device. Only solution for that: Pull out the battery or if there is no SOD yet, reboot the device.
This problem does NOT belong to the launcher, since i have tested apex, nova and trebuchet.
This problem does NOT belong to a specific a2sd script, since i have tested Link2sd and darktremor script.
This problem does NOT belong to a bad flash or sth like that, since i have made 3 installs from scratch for now (task29) and always had the same issue after a while.
My config:
Bootloader: Tested with clk and magldr
CWM: latest
ROM: [04-05-12][ROM] Unofficial AOKP for HD2 [Milestone 5 v2][HWA][4.0.4][tytung_HWA_r1]
Kernel: tytung_hwa_r1
This issue seems to be more rare since i have only heard of a few others having these issues.
Regards
What type is your ext

I added script into the /etc/init.d
but it didn't work in new milestone 5,but working in former aokps.
can you explain to me the reasons. thx.
I was adding this script in App_dc2SD_1_05.zip
As this script doesn't cause low volume bug, it's my first choise for a2sd.
any suggestings?

the Mic volume is low even if I use the Hd2 Mic gain control and set everything to 500
You are using a2sd right use the one in the first post

multitouch issue, hardware or software problem?

i got the same issue showed in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gz27tAD1IBQ
Can anyone please tell me if is an hardware or software problem? Shell i use warrenty and contact asus? Thx
The only way to identify it as a software problem would be to change the kernel, or maybe even ROM. But it will probably be a hardware issue.

in this way may i'll have problem in case of warranty? I dont know asus warranty behavior
Do you observe multitouch issues in other applications, or are you assuming that because you can reproduce the effect in that video that you have a problem.
If you enable developer options on the N7, and then turn on (Settings -> Developer options):
- Show touches
- Pointer location
can you reproduce the effects shown in that video? (Probably you need to do this on a blank homescreen or maybe viewing a picture or something so that you are not launching apps).
[Edit] I d'loaded a free market app "Multitouch Visible Test" from the market - it looks like the one in the video, although I can't be 100% sure. There are a lot of those kinds of apps in the market. FWIW, I couldn't reproduce what was demonstrated in the video. Not sure if that means anything though. I'm on rooted stock 4.2.1

As long as you send it in completely stock, they'll never know or care.

i observe multitouch problem durin broswer and photo pinch to zoom. So i download the same application of the video and i understand to have the same problem! :'(
Today i'll try to flash a custom ROM and Kernel. If the issue will persist i'll go to saturn hoping is a quick sostitution. I dont want to send my N7 to ASUS.....
I have not get rid of the issue changing kernel and ROM but it has improved a lot with the combination of Franco kernel, Cm 10.1 and some tweaking in kernel parameters. I also noticed that enabling Force gpu in development options made it go better. I have read somewhere in this forum that all Nexus 7 have the same issue and it will be solved in 4.2.2. I hope it is true.
