no flashlight - Desire General

hello i have a problem with flash light when i wont to make some photos is no light, so is with a lamp, is a hardware problem or? thanks

Did you try multiple apps to get your camera LED to flash? i.e. Torch and Flashlight and stuff like that? Because it could be just your camera app
If those apps also don't work I'm guessing it's your little camera LED that's broken..

I try all camera, torch , no light on my desire.

Thus to conclude, I guess it's a hardware issue..

Did you install a custom rom? A special kernel maybe? Try something well known then, cm7, oxygen...
If you did not change anything, then it sound as a hardware issue for me, too.

no I't instal nothing, I agry it must be hardwar issue, thanks

Camera Light - while focussing - any idea?

Hi there,
searched the forum without solutions.
Is there any way known to activate the camera light BEFORE pressing the Shuter-Button?
It would be great if the light could be switched on when iam focussing, so the cam yould focus better, too if the light is on.
Hope anyone got an idea?
still we need to know which phone,
but it maybe doesnt matter, your awnser is no
i think we need this.
In dark wp7 have flash but it not open when focuss so camera can't focuss
My HTC 7 Trophy did not use the flash for focusing, but my Omnia 7 uses the flash in dark conditions for focusing.
what a pitty.... okay..

Re. camera restarting phone - it's been reported that when on autobrightness, the camera will reboot the phone sometimes. Using an alternative camera app (like Camera 360 for instance), or not using autobrightness for the display, will help.
I also had this problem, and since switching camera apps it hasn't happened.
Changing that and now work fine. Thx @rafithegreat .
And Video Recoring in 720p now is very bad. Even if I play in MoboPlayer it's not so smooth.
Now recordingin norma.
One more question: how to turn on Time Stamp when I'm taking photo?

dawpuc, I've your same problem.
I've tried to change some radios and rils, but the problem remains.
I don't want to use an alternative camera app, because I like the default app.
I also would like to continue to use the autobrightness utility, because I need it.
Can anyone help me?
P.S.: do you know how can I add the timestamp to my photos directly on the photo in one of the corners?
Why would anyone want time stamps?
On a digital camera, it is the very first thing I turn off.

So any solution?

Hi, I have the same problem using Insertcoin CM7 V1.1.2 . The problem has gotten worse since Insertcoin 1.1.1. Back then only the camera would crash.
Since updating to Insertcoin 1.1.2 the camera freezes the whole phone. I have to take the battery out to reboot manually.
I've used a card gparted with ext3 and ext4 both.
At one point the camera kept working but images were not saved properly. Windows then detected problems with the card and some images were placed in the found folder during the check.
The crashes also happen with the separate Sense 3 camera zip linked on Insertcoin's blog. To be honest that one does not look different from the bundled camera and I have the idea that the problems started with the Sense 3 camera.
Hope this makes more people aware of the issue and perhaps attracts the attention of a dev.

Why can't Sense Roms control softkey backlights...

while cm7 and other AOSP roms can, either directly, in display brightness settings, or through apps (screen filter, Moon + reader etc)? The same apps don't work with the softkeys in sense.
Am currently on cm7, mainly because of the darn softkeys blinding me while reading or watching vids.
And is there a camera app for cm7 that does auto focus, like the HTC camera app? And how about internet pass-through?
It seems I need a combination of both types of Roms!
Have you tried the Miui Camera? I was using it with CM7. It's pretty nice, has Autofocus as well as Antishake.
It can be installed as a system app and replace the stock camera (rename the apk to camera, and place in the system app folder and change the permissions. or just install as a stand alone app. I chose to replace my stock camera.
If you have any issues, let me know.
Thanks!
I'll give this app a try!
Mine must be broken because they are hardly blinding.

I just installed it! First time I had a chance to use the barcode scanner.
Nice app! Is there a way to zoom in using video? And can I use the front camera with it? I haven't found an option for that, so far.

I don't know of any way to zoom on the video.
I have the front facing camera option on the left hand side of the screen near the top. It has a camera with arrows around it. I'm not sure if it is on the version I linked though. I've switched back to the Miui rom and using the lastest version 1.9.9 which has the front facing camera option (works for both camera and video)... I can try and pull the apk and see what happens if I flash it to CM7 later...
Thanks! I would appreciate this very much!
PS: I'm still hoping someone can explain why there is no control over the softkey lights in sense roms.
For example, screen filter and Moon + reader can both turn them off using AOSP roms, but the same apps cannot in Sense roms.
Is this something that is easy to add and nobody else wants this function, or is there something in the sense roms making it hard to incorporate?
Tried flashing the camera from the latest Miui build (1.9.9) in CM 7... no luck, just force closes.
I'm sure there may be someone out there that knows what needs to be modded to make it work. I wish I did...
I'll enclose the apk if anyone wants to try to mess with it.
Thanks a million for trying, Don!
No problem. Good luck on the backlighting.
I enjoy being able to kill mine when reading books. It's a nice feature to have. Crazy that on the sense based roms that dimming the display doesn't effect the soft key back lighting like it does on the Aosp roms Crazy..

The Fixed2 version doesn't have FFC support. There is also a TEST1 version which has enabled the FFC for some. The link in my signature will take you to the post about Fixed2 but it also links to TEST1. I'm currently working on the version from 1.9.2 so if you want to try it out, PM and I'll give you the download link. The only reason I'm not just posting for everybody right now is so people on various devices/roms give feedback about what needs fixed and tweaked.
As far as why we can't take the app right from MIUI and have it work is because it's dependent on pieces of the MIUI framework. Basically, to make it work the apk needs to be decoded and have some of the framework added to it. Would be a lot easier if MIUI was open source.

[Q] Desire-Z (CM10 build 129) Auto Rotation

Hello,
today i installed Flinnys CM10 build 129 für HTC Desire-Z / Vision and im verry happy with it.
Its runs very smooth and is super resposible, even in multitasking stuff.
But i have one big problem where i cant find any sollution and hope that some of you guys could help me out.
in Camera-App Autorotation of the Display dont works, it still hangs in portrait mode, no matter if i tilt the phone or not...same in Gallery.
and in Messagers like Whatsapp the Display rotates to landscape mode if i flip out the harware Keyboard but dont rotate back to portrait mode if i close the Keyboard.
the only way to get it back to portrait mode is closing whatsapp.
I tried switching auto-rotate on and off, do full wipe, clean caches and installed rom and gapps again, tried different camera and gallery apps but nothing helps.
I downloaded a sensor testing tool and it shows no reaction from the rotation sensors.
also no reaktion in games like coine dozer, where the prices in the price-view had alwas rotate.
My hardware should be ok, cause a few minutes ago on my old rom (CM9) it all worked perfectly.
Also testet to go back to CM9 and there is all working perfectly...switched again to CM10 an no auto rotation
please could any of you guys help me with this problem ?
I would be really happy !^^
PS: Sorry for my not well written english, cause im from germany.
And i hope this is the right forum for my problem...cause im new registered im not able to post it under android development.
many thanks and best regards
hopefull

Try running this camera app. I haven't used the default camera since I installed that.
thank you for the tip and i had instantly tried this camera and gallery app but auto rotation still does not work.
no matter which camera or gallery app i usw, i cant get auto rotation to work.
tried many different other apps and none of them can access or use it.
i installed sensor list from play store an the only sensors that seems responding are the proximity and the light sensors.
no reaction from AK8976 Orientation Sensor, Rotation Vector Sensor 2, BMA150 3-axis Accelerometer or AK8975 3-axis Magnetic field Sensor.
i think it has to be some Kernel or Rom Problem that prevents the Rom or Kernel to access the Sensors.
Read a lot in other Treads around the Web in the last few hours and this problem seems to occure in many Roms but is was on other Devices and the only one i could test was going back to a Rom where everything works and then again flash Jelly Bean.
But i had no luck and theres still the same problem.

Camera unable to focus - Sultanxda's rom

as the title says, recently when I open my camera app, the rear camera is unable to focus no matter what I do, the same happens with snapchat and other camera apps. I was wondering if this is an issue within the rom or if its a general OP3 issue and if anyone could help me attempt to fix it.
I'm on SultanXda's rom with the 19th of Feb patch. (would post this on the rom's page but my account is too new to reply on that)
Thanks in advance
Even I have this kind of issue and I am using resurrection reimx ROM. The camera is not focusing. Neither in the camera app nor in the apps like snapchat.
Hope someone has a solution for this.

really hope so, bit troubled at the moment since I can't take any photos
Just tried with rom-delieverd-snapcamera, and the focus is just working fine.
Just touch the screen, where to focus and snap.
Maybe you can give us some hint to reproduce?

sadly touch focus isnt working on my phone, starting to think it might be a hardware issue instead since it just suddenly started happening. I'm not too sure what is different from when it was working either :/ just that one day touch focus stopped working and auto focus stopped as well.
So you can wait for an update, or any other reported issues with focus on sultans rom oder you might try another rom, if it still exists, to make sure, its not a HW issue.
Ehy guyz, it is an hardware problem. U can fix it opening the phone and using some scotch to maintain in place the camera. Or send it in RMA. Or use a magnet near the camera, out of the phone's case as is possible to see in attached photo
