Camera Fix - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know a patch that can fix the camera/camcorder for AOKP build 39.
Seen patches but I don't want to flash something bad that could damage the phone.
Can someone give a proper link to a patch if anyone knows for sure.

I don't know a whole lot about AOKP for the dinc but CM9 has a working camera and panoramic camera. While there is a fix for the video camera it has been known to break youtube and other modes of video playback. The easiest solution to the problem is to download a third party video camera from the play store and use it rather than stock because they do work as a substitute.
CM9 for the dinc:

MIUI camera for EVO with 720P?

Does anyone have a working MIUI camera that supports 720P on the evo? I have been having issues with 720P recording with MIKROM 2.61 and wanted to find a different camera app to see if the app is the issue. I am told MIUI CAMERA app works better. I found a MIUI MULTICAMERA 17 signed APK and installed it but it doesnt support 720P on the evo (no choice for that setting).
any ideas?? or is there a better camera app for video recording? (I also tried LG CAMERA but it freezes when you try to record 720p)
Well right now MIUI doesnt support 720p video recording thats something we need to wait for the CM team or the Chinese devs to come up with. Because that is actually embedded in the rom and it isnt just a simple apk change otherwise it would have been done so. But I am sure it is being working on and hopefully will show up soon.

[Q] ICS camera replacement app

Hi guys,
This is a post for everyone of us who are enjoin ICS and did not find a fully working camera replacement app for ICS.
What i am looking for in a replacement camera is:
-Video recording (preferably HD recording)
-Picture taking (optional special frames and effects but that is not necessary, i'm not really looking for a toy camera)
-Panoramic pictures (I currently use Photaf, but i would really even pay for an all in 1 camera app)
Now LG Camera can record video supposedly, but when i try to record, i get "Record video failed".
Can anyone help me with settings for LG Camera or a better camera app with video recording that i can use on ICS?
Try Zoom FX or Camera 360, but keep in mind that I don't know which ROM you are using and that means I don't know if the apps I'm proposing will work.
As for panoramic photos I'm using Pano and I'm full happy with it.
videocam illusion works fine
Camera 360 - Does not have video
Camera ZOOM FX does not provide video support but just a simple link to the video camera on the phone
Video is what ICS camera lacks so that is what i am searching for
Videocam illusion just freezes when i try to record.
i am using:
IceColdSandwich - 7.4 - AOKP | STRIPPER EDITION You last visited: Today at 09:51 PM
If you tested a camera with video recording on any ICS Roms please tell me about it!
Thank you

Until we get the kernel source code from HTC video camera will always be a problem. This is a well known fact. For the most part Illusion works and is included in most ICS roms, but until we get an update from HTC this is as good as its gonna get.
Huh, Videocam Illusion works for me too on IceColdSandwich 7.4 AOKP STRIPPER EDITION.

Hello!
I'd like to know if it works on Blackout ICS XL v2.0 SUPER SMOOTH [4.0.3][Sense 3.6] too (picture taking at least)

Maybe you can try beta version lgCamera?
Hi, I use UCam ver 1.1.6. Pretty good camera app. It supports Point to Shoot/Video/Panorma and is pretty straight forward.
Now as your on LC's ICS (IceColdSandwich) rom, video recording wont work (Video doesnt really work on any ICS rom for DHD, because of the lack native hardware encoding/decoding libs, which btw shall be available once HTC releases kernel 3.0 sourcecode).
Also UCam ver 1.1.6 is latest UCam that would work flawlessly on LC's ICS (barring the video of course). VideoCam Illusion does work for a lot of people but video quality isnt that great and the resolution is no where near the native ones supported.
Hope this helps. BTW I am also on LC's ICS rom, they are butter smooth
Videorecording works in LC's ICS rom but you can't film in HD or high quality generally because then the video will lag. Application I use is Videocam Illusion.
On a sidenote though the stock photocamera works ok if you just want to shoot a fast picture.
Picture I shot today with the stock camera
Thank you for the UCAM idea, it really is a great camera app it has panoramic cam, spy can (you can make sexy videos of girls kidding ).
Do you know what the paid has that the free version does not?

Us DHD users will most likely be waiting till end of July/early August before we start to see ICS's official source come out. In the new 8.0 SOB version of the rom you are using the camera works great, 3rd party camera apps on ICS is still rather touch and go your best option for picture taking would be the stock.

[Q] Snapchat Video Recording Failed

There has been a snapchat issue for a long time.
The rear camera gives the toast "Video Reording Failed" whenever I attempt to take a video.
The front camera records video perfectly fine though...
I tested this on Gingerbread and ICS, it works on both.
I tested on jellybean (AOSP and TW) and it doesn't work
So I thought this may be an issue for just my device.
When I got my replacement phone, I immediately installed snapchat and saw that video recording failed on my new device as well (it was running stock TW JB)
But when I downgrade to ICS and GB, it works perfectly fine....
Does anyone have a clue about wtheck is going on? Does jellybean not have a certain patch for our device?
I'm not the only one experiencing this. There's many other reviews on Google Play for this device that say the same thing.
Thanks :laugh:

Not sure if you guys have figured out the problem yet but I have. I have found an older version of snap chat that works perfectly for our t989 phones, video recording works like a charm. Download the older version of the app here http://www.mediafire.com/?7py7jfbf809avey

I read somewhere that was a JB problem and the only way to solve this was to get back on ICS or put a older version of Snapchat! Your best bet is probably @iTz KeeFy link

Yea I'm currently running Kit Kat and the video recording still doesn't work for me, having to use the older version.

Ever since one of the Snapchat updates I have been unable to use the rear camera for video as well, since flashing CM 11 the front camera will record but only after a 10 second pause!
Thanks!
Downloading the older version of snapchat worked flawlessly. I can finally record videos!
Can someone on ICS or gingerbread give me a logcat of them recording rear camera video on Snapchat?
i found a fix and it works for me with liquid smooth rom. u just have to change the video camera quality from 720p to 480p by going to camera, video , video settings...

Snapchat back camera

I did a fair amount of research but couldnt find any answers for this phone specifically, ( tmobile hercules )
Installed latest nightly of cyanogenmod
I've changed my codecs / video quality only, in all combinations
The back camera and GPS are the only thing not working on my phone.
I want to solve the camera problem first.
Any more information needed? Ask. Thanks.
It's a known issue with this phone. You have to install an older version of snap chat in order to use the rear camera recording feature. You can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2590031

Google Camera bugs on CM11 M9

hi
I use CM 11 Milestone 9 release, and everything is working properly...almost...
Last time i've installed Google Camera from Play Store, and there is the problem.
The camera seems buggy, but i think it's a rom issue, because on PA is working as it should.
On CM exactly the Photosphere and Panoramas aren't working, instead of camera view I see black screen (with all camera interface of course)
Maybe someone knows how to fix it.
tnx
Same issue for me. Google goggles is broken, too.
