New HTC ROM killed and buried my camera? - HTC Excalibur

I flashed to the new rom and all is great except that there's no camera icon or a way to activate the camera. Camera Button does not work. And even in creating an MMS theres no option to add video, just audio. It does not acknowledge my camera even exists...Has anyone else seen this or fixed it?
Thanks in advance.

Camera and Camcorder not working

So i flashed over and a JRDNEM_U3_2.34.1 based rom... (http://www.simply-android.com/discussion/704/rom-vanilla-w-eclair-1.0.1-122810/p1) and noticed the camera and camcorder shortcuts arent there. I downloaded the camcorder shortcut app and whenever i click it, i get an FC and it goes back to the homescreen. I dont see a stock camera app so i downloaded Camera 360 but the whole process with that app is too slow for me and the image gets stuck unless i play with the zoom slider to reset the camera. Its weird. Now im using Camera Magic and its great but it only captures 1024x768 which is only .8 megapixels. I want to get the camera and camcorder apps working the way they should, what should i do?
Workarounds i found was using ANcorder and Camera360/Fx Camera/Camera Magic to take pics and video but im still looking for the normal use of it. The developer of the ROM seems to have a chip on his shoulder and isnt very helpful so im wondering if any of you guys might have a different solution for getting the camera to work after flashing new ROMs and finding a that as a problem.

[Q] SUPERNOVA Xtreme Official GB Camera Focus Issue??

Hello guys, flashed this ROM not long ago, and it is the best sense ROM (thanks to the developer) i have experienced especially in terms of stability and internal storage.
However i am experiencing a problem with the camera app, it doesnt seem to focus on the picture before taking the snap, i have put the auto focus setting on but still no luck, tried it without and still no luck, am i missing something?
Also can the camera apk be replaced with another camera apk from a different sense rom? i tried before the Revolution 4.0 and the camera app on that was really good. any ideas for fixing the focus issue or recommended camera apk that i could replace it with?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Gallery/Camera APK

I'm running Codename Android and I was having trouble with the front facing camera causing the gallery to FC. So I found the GoogleGallery.apk from 4.2 (for 4.1 ROMs) and flashed it. My front facing camera is working fine now, but the video camera won't record in 1080p or even 720p. It will only record when set to 480p. I've googled and searched the forums, and so far can't find anything about it. Any ideas? I'd even be happy restoring back to the gallery/camera APK that came with CNA if I could figure out how to get the front facing camera to stop force closing it. Help?

4.4 Camera Issues *HELP*

Hello and thanks for your time! I have the SGH-I317 and I am having problems with my camera when I flash a AOSP ROM. The 4.4 KitKat camera is not working for me, but when I flash back to a TouchWiz ROM everything is fine. Here are the apps and the problems associated with them:
-SnapChat: Taking pictures works fine, but when recording video it will only record a second or two
-Instagram: Pictures are fine, but the video is distorted and zoomed in
-Vine: The app doesn't even recognize that i have a video camera
-When trying to take a video to attach to a mms message it give me this: (SEE ATTACHED) (I've tried Hangouts and the stock messaging)
And the crazy thing is, when i open the video camera through the camera app, it works fine.
ALSO, When any app that needs access to the camera/video camera is open, there is a horrible screeching sound that comes out of the headset speaker, I will record a video so you can hear what I am talking about. Also notice how the video is fine besides the screeching when opening through the camera app.

Wrong section sir.
You need to delete this and post in questions and answers thread. This section is for developers to post roms..NOT for questions
Thanks
Also..its a known bug for those apps for 4.4 roms. No fix right now.

Yes, the sure, simple solution is to use a stock rom. 100% compatible with those time bandit apps.
THis is exactly why I am on a 4.3 ROM (Ditto Note) most of the time. The stock camera in the kitkat roms doesn't work smoothly for me.

If only that were a solution for me. (using an older custom rom)
I seem to have this issue on any rom BESIDES the stock rom. Its buggy across the mentioned apps, and it never works on the MMS "capture video" setting. This isn't a big deal as it only aggravates my OCD, but my bank recently installed some photo detection software on their mobile app and I can no longer deposit checks due to the buggy nature of the camera.
If you, or anyone else here knows of a rom that is FULLY compatible with the GN2 camera, can you please post it here? Im willing to go back in time.
I wish that developers would fully work out the bugs in X.3 before moving on to X.4, but i appreciate their hard work.

[Port] Sense 6 Camera

Im not one for fancy OP so lest cut to the chase. I have been working on this on and off for some time now and i am at a point i feel i can call it ALPHA. This should only be flashed on KK or L GPE or pure AOSP. CM will have to be done differently they did some strange things to HW keys that makes camera not work at all.
Screenshots available here:

What works?
Camera
Pan360
Split Capture
PhotoBooth
Selfie
Photo preview
HTC gallery
What needs some work?
Zoe camera wont open. ( if you choose Zoe options you will need to go to settings > apps > Camera and clear data to make it stop)
Camcorder (rotates the video when saving and cause the video to glitch)
Please have a valid Nandroid in case you want to go back. At a later date i can make an uninstall zip.
Special thanks to:
HTC
Google
Neo he pointed out that gallery was update to work without the security check.
Team Ecliptic for pushing me to get this working.

If you would like to use this work and continue on, be my guest. No need to ask for permissions. All i ask is that when you do use it, just give me a shout out.
@synisterwolf Do we need to install the gallery.apk also or is packaged up with the camera?

i cleaned up the zip and packaged gallery with the camera. it also comes with Zoe the social network. if people dont want it i can remove.
Looks like there will be a tiny issue with L vs KK. Im going to need to set up a zip for both until HTC updates Camera to API19
I havent found any bugs myself. Well one. Not able to open gallery from camera app

Thus should work. Open gallery first then use the camera to open gallery.

video still needs to be worked on. the camcorder saves the video all wrong and cause video tearing.

@synisterwolf ... When recording video it only records in mms resolution from main camera. Not 1080p like it should.
When I had my HTC the only thing that kept me o 4.0 was the camera..this is a dream come true
Please if you canfind a way to make it work on cm12
Thank you very much man!! I'm on cm12 on HTC One S and it work! But I have only pan 360 , portrait and cam. Why?
Please don't tell me you'll drop this project :'(
