[Q] Camera Crashing on Custom Roms - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I don't have permission for posting in dev section so I'm asking my question here (yes,I did go through the forum n google to find a solution)
From the time I've started using custom roms,my camera app is not working properly. It crashes after 3-4 shots n my phone reboots. My phone freezes on the preview screen for a few seconds n then restarts. At first I thought its a rom issue but I've faced this same problem on reflex s,rcmix 2,leedroid 2.5 and SGBS and this problem never existed in the original rom.
What could be causing this? I'm using s off desire with 1gb ext partition (created using clockwork recovery screen)..
appreciate the help
thanks

Did you do full wipe before install ROM ?
If not, please do so.
If yes, I don't know the answer.
You can try install default ROM and start all over again though.

hello
thanks for the reply,I always do a full wipe when installing a custom rom..but don't know why this issue...
I'm scared to try the stock rom as I don't know what my original country was as I bought my phone from the local market without any warranty...!

someone...??

thats disappointing

try the sense 2.1 camera - it should work. To be honest I never had this problem when trying those sense-based ROMs, so no other idea.

Try flashing a newer/different radio

thanks for the replies..I didn't know the radio could have anything to do with the camera...will update n test for 2days n rite back
I'm using sgbs rite now with sense 2.1 camera...before this I had rcmixs,reflex s,Lee droids...all had similar issue,some more than the other..
BTW off topic does anyone know how I can get only sense 3 weather on sense 2.1? And which is a good sense 3 rom with stock android lock screen working...as sense 3 lock screen n caller screen is kinda annoying!
thanks

[Q] Camera resolution/ color depth problem - COREDROID

Hi @all,
i tried to find a solution for my problem, but i still couldn't find one.
My Desire HD:
ROM: CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V5.0 & FROYO V3.3
Android Version: 2.3.3
Sense Version: 2.1
Baseband: 12.28e.60.140fP_26.04.04.17_M2
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.10-g1418c33
Software Number: CoreDroid Desire HD V5.0
My Problem:
I flashed my original ROM with the CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V5.0. Everything works fine, except the camera. If I try to make a picture, it seems, that the color depth is like 8bit. -> See attached picture.
Flashing another ROM like RCMixHD_v5.6_ORG -> same problem.
Is there still existing a thread for this Problem or does some knows what i can do?

That looks awesome
A question: Does the live view of the camera show the same picture? Or is it correct and only changes when saving?
Anyway I would recommend a full wipe & reflash of the ROM. If that doesn't fix the problem, there might be a serious problem.
The picture looks also on live view so bad.
I tried different ROMs and for wipe datas i allways used the Full_wipe_1.3.zip
I don't think that it's a hardware problem, because with the original ROM it allwaxs worked fine before i flashed.
I did following things:
- had original ROM
- downgraded from Baseband 1.75.x to 1.32.x (followed Forum Thread HOWTO...)
- Radio S-OFF and ENG S-OFF
- Flashed new ROM CoreDroid
- Radio Update to 12.28e.60.140fP_26.04.04.17_M2
I hope this helps....
Thanks
Did you already try other ROMs? It might fix the problem, if you do a full wipe and flash a different ROM, if it is ROM specific.
Have you already tried to go back to stock ROM and checked whether the problem persists?
Yeah, i tried the RCMix ROM and the Revolution HD ROM.
I didn't try stock rom yet. Didn't still found the thread with stock ROMs, so, don't know where to download from.
Does someone knows the title of the stock ROMs Thread?
Its definetely a ROM issue . So my suggestion to you is :
- Either the issue come from not properly functioning ROM or not properly functioning KERNEL . By re-flashing them , I guess you would managed to fix the problem .
- If you have made a BACKUP before flashing your new ROM , you should just restore your previous ROM and maybe the issue would disappear .
Ok, so i'll make a Kernel Update and try another ROM or Stock ROM (tomorrow) and then post you my results.
I hope that works
I die a kernel update, Radio Update, flashed stock rom 1.32 but this didn't fix the Problem.
Any other ideas that can be a solution für my Problem?
Hi,
I have the exact same problem with my DHD. Was a solution ever found?
For me, 'till today, sadly not
I think the camera sensor is busted. If you already flash lots of different roms and still not fixing it, best probable guess would be the hardware itself.

[Q] HTC Desire running slow and sluggish

Right Im running the LeeDrOiD V2.4.1 rom, first time with a custom rom.
Everytime I download and instal something the phone almost grinds to a halt and its impossible to use it while its installing the new app.
Is this got to do with the rom or is it because my etx3 partition 750mb?
Advice please
Thanks in advance.

Use starbust rom it is fast and stable and gives you internal memory of upto 2GB
Maybe I want to use Leedroid
Mine was doing that as well. I was previously using oxygen which was fast, but Leedroid 2.4 gave me unbareable lag at times. I have now switched to Lee's new gingerbread 3.0.2 rom and have found it so much quicker. May be worth a try?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I am planning to go to his gingerbread one but not until its been out their and tested longer.
any news when will the htc gb will be released?
Why dont you test it yourself and leave feedback instead of leeching
Kind of fixed the problem, all I did was switch the phone on and off :S

Please use threads already available instead of opening a new threads. I would start on the MIUI site as no development is don't on XDA for MIUI.

It appeared on my first ICS then after full wipe, etc. that problem was in RCMix and then again in ICS. I want to say that before ICS on RCMix, RUU, or Android Revolution, i haven't any problem with camera.

Sorry, already IceColdSandwich 7.4. Problem appears on (i guess) IceColdSandwich 7.2, or earlier.
What does Camera quality depand on?
And there was no this problem when You used RCMix3D? So the answer is simple - change the ROM!
yea today i was flash my rom to IceColdSandwich 7.4 again to solve another problem. Now (i was stunned when i saw it) my camera is taking normal pictures ?
What, i did?
So, probably i had to clear cache, after old rom.
Thank u for interest and help very much.
But i have still another problem with install certificate names 17****.p12 (IceColdSandwich 7.4). I tried install by Settings>security>Install from SD card. Widnow to write a password doesnt appear and my phone get freeze. Only "back" button rescue me. There wasn't any prblem in RCMix v4.0, or RUU with this. I dont know if i should do new thread for this. I asked about it on official thread of rom i am already using.

[HELP!] Camera Problems with MildWild Jelly-Gingerbread

So recently I decided to get back to some of my older android devices, and why not try out the good o'l HTC Desire.
Now at one point I thought that installing a custom ROM was a good idea to get some of the newer apps or what not... and managed to screw up the camera somehow. Now the problem is, this was done around 3/4 years ago and the phone was left as it was.
Another issue it had with this ROM is the insane battery leakage. It lasts MAX 1 hour... Starts to heat up after a couple of minutes of usage.
I've tried several different things, including:
1. Camera Restarter application that many people recommend.
2. Wipe Dalvik/Cache, Factory Reset, Wipe Data... etc
3. Force closing the app, getting rid of the data/cache within the OS application settings...
The ROM I'm using is the old MildWild GingerBread v.2.3.7 JellyBean based version of the ROM.
Kernel version: [email protected]#1
Mod version: MildWild Jelly-Gingerbread
Build date: November 2013
Recovery: CVM Revolutionary 4.0.1.4
Phone model, obviously the HTC Desire Bravo, the original.
I'd love to try and fix this rom's issue... but what I'd like more than anything is, if someone could post a mirror to this custom ROM too:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2204681
I'd like to give that a try too, as it has the HTC Sense feel to it. Miss the good ol' rainbow blur live wallpaper, square weather widget... (the closest to the original)
And if not that, someone that knows how to revert this thing back to the original stock ROM.
Already tried doing that, but couldn't flash any of the RRU zip files provided on the Android Development section.
The phone should be from the European Region, as it was bought from there. Specifically don't know the operator... so WWE.
If none other options are avalible... may someone recommend me a very good ROM that atleast looks like the old HTC Sense and has a fully working Camera, without any Battery leakage issues.
Thanks in advance.
