[Q] Camera Will Not Work, Camcorder Does

I recently had issues with my phone and have had to root it and try various ROMS. I am currently on CyanogenMod 5. Okay, now to the problem: ever since my phone crashed and I've tried these mods, my camera's shutter won't work. The camera focuses as if it will take the picture, but then it freezes on the picture and doesn't load, nor does the picture appear in the gallery later. This is the same for the original camera app, the Camera Magic app and the Retro Camera apps I downloaded, and Google Goggles. However, the camcorder still works and records video just fine. How can I fix this so my camera works again?
Thank you,
Abi

No one has any sort of solution to this?

same here with CM 6 .... picture taken but it does not save to gallery, after some time force to close or wait. sometimes reboot works sometimes same issue.

I'm going to bump this. I have the exact same problem. ANY SOLUTIONS PLEASE?
Does my radio file need updated? HELP?

there is no fix, it is google not releasing the camera module, nor helping out the issue.

Camera FC

Hi to everyone,
since I installed Rom based on AOSP, CM, overall SlimRom that is my favourite, I always met FC on camera.
Googling on xda forum, I searched post with the same problem, and talk about Goolge camera to flash in recovery to replace stock camera.
I follow the suggestion also with latest update but FC happens again (are always behind the corner: Italian expression).
This occur when tap the screen to focus the image. If I would make a photo sequence device FC.
There's a solution? I tried other camera apps but nothing FC FC FC
Thanks, Bye
Edit:
Now Im on Omni Rom and nowadays seems not have FC like other AOSP as Slim. Why these difference?

Error solved
Hi to everyone,
perhaps I've discovered the problem with camera. Since month I installed an app to keep wake device smart eye, and I believe this app should make a conflict with the camera when scan with front camera.
I've been unable camera from app control and now works. Sometimes crash without fc.
Sorry but I've never thought at this conflict.

[Q] Camera app for working HDR (and maybe slow-mo?)

Hi everyone!
Right now I am using CM11 on my Galaxy S4 (International model) and taking pictures with the built in camera app (stock camera). Though, there is some troubles with the stock camera and other camera-apps that I've tried (Google Camera for example). Whenever I try to use HDR it either makes the camera crash that ends up rebooting the system, or the end result is just grey pictures.
So my question is basicaly if there are any fixes for this? I read about this http://goo.gl/orWkC0 app that is supposed to fix it thanks to the supplied libs, but are there more fixes like this? Because obviously a normal app isn't enough. And btw, is there also a similar fix that enables slow-mo capture? Because what I can remember the S4 does support 120fps @720p in the stock TW-camera...
Thanks for all answers, looking forward for a fix!

HDR works fine for me, using the google camera app. But I am using a 5.0.1. GPE rom.
So.. It may be a rom problem?

nexus4 camera with flash takes black picture.

Stock latest lollipop camera works fine, after camera update takes black picture with flash. Uninstalling update fixed the issue.
Cm12.1 same issue with ROM default camera.
Chroma same issue with default camera.
EDIT: found using latest camera on kitkat is flawless. only when on lollipop and latest camera this issue occurs.

Uninstall google camera...use camera360 instead

dont need these stupid filter camera's. plus it doesn't have video mode.
what i want is a simple no blabla camera that do picture and video, or a fix to this flash issue that takes black picture.
iv got an older google camera and it works fine, but it auto updates so i disabled auto update for now.

Use this. It supports video recording too.
Camera360 is also great.

here what i found according to my need that is..
1 old version of Google camera
2 open camera (ui is not great specially settings)
3 better camera (paid but worth it)
Google camera and better camera takes same quality pictures, video is better on better camera on low light condition.

i was facing same issue , but i found a solution . you have to press anywhere on the screen first , 2nd time you press on capture button . it works for me

no that just add inconvenience, i found using older version of google camera is far better, just have to see i don't update it by mistake.

The only working camera apps produce a green picture with camera 2 api

Having a slight problem where when camera 2 is enabled some camera apps such as footej and the OnePlus camera just shoot a completely green picture every 2 pictures
The thing is that I can't disable the camera 2 API on 8.1.0 for some reason and using other apps such as the Google camera isn't possible since the shutter lag is extremely long and unusable.
Does anyone have the same problem and a potential fix?
