I tried the camera fix posted here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970452
I used Odin, all I get after it finishes is my phone sits on a blank screen with Samsung written on it. It never finishes booting.
Before I tried running the camera fix kernal, I used
Stock EB13 Deodexed EXT4 + CW 3.0.0.6 listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853209 posted by art3mis-nyc.
It worked fine, except for the lag when rotating phone, (known issue, I was able to fix using the fix posted on the forums) and the video lag.
So I am guessing that the EB13 that I am running isn't compatible with the camera kernal update?
So...my question is, is there a patch I can get to fix that, or do I need to install a different mod? So far, I have only updated my phone via modem, and not through clockwork(which means I have more reading to do, if that is the direction I must take)
Thanks guys.
Try the Genocide 0.3a kernel. Should work perfect.

Works flawlessly for me.
Ok. On that note, the eb13 I installed says it is prerooted and has clockwork installed. How do I findclockwork to then install the Genocide? I am watching a youtube on how to use clockwork, but apparently I have no icon for it, and I tried the (hold volume down, camera button and power button at same time) and nothing happened.
I am at a loss.
1. Download the Genocide kernel .zip and copy it to your SD card.
2. Power the phone off.
3. Once completely shut down hold vol down, camera and power until you see the clockwork mod menu
4. Choose install zip from SD card and choose the kernel zip you downloaded.
5. When it says completed (after the screen flickers once or twice) choose reboot and you should be good to go.

Will I need to install a custom ROM too, or can I stick with my stock EB13?
Thanks insanity, and other posters.
I finally figured out how to get into clockwork. But the 5 minutes between posts wouldn't let me state that.
I was going to use the "trulyEpic which is about 130mb, and the genocide one I downloaded is like 8mb. Is it supposed to be so small?

I do believe the kernel works with stock eb13 as well. Give it a shot! Thats what development is all about.
And yes, around 8mb sounds about right for the kernel size.

Yes its that small. The rom includes everything for your phone. All the system stuff. That's why its so big of a file the kernel is just that so when u flash the rom u have to flash the kernel afther the rom is installed

Ok. Got ya, so since I had an eb13 rom, just flashing the genocide kernal over it, made basically the few changes he listed including the camera fix. BTW, flashed it, and camera is fixed. Big thanks to everyone.
I had a rom, that restarted the phone on its own, and the launcher kept getting erased, so i installed another rom and it wouldnt work.I had to Odin, and then have tried to install about 6 diffrent roms, with none working. Either it will get stuck in a boot loop, or just the buttons would light up with no screen. Please Help me
Give us more information. What roms are you trying to install. Rfs or ext4. What cwm are you using?

You listed his issues he's probably flashing in wrong Cwm or with wrong build....
Odin the ECO5
THEN ROOT WITH THE ONE CLICK ROOT 3.0.2.5
THEN FLASH ACS FROZEN 1.1.1 (Best ROM Ever )
.... Thats it
thats exacly what i did. Frozen was the 1st rom..then i later went to the gingerbread leak (anoymous) and it was working but i kept losing data connection so i went back to urban fury...then it ramdomly would reboot with no launcher and i tried to reinstall, and ever since then all i can do is odin. i wonder if my root some how is messed up or something
I'm currently running acs's sfr 1.1.1. I Flashed it twice because I had a bad flash. But otherwise its running great. There's great vid's that show you step by step. It should be in sfr 1.1.1 first post in the dev section.

What ROM?
And if its SRF did you download the version without the kernel included? Or the one with the kernel in it?
Could be bad downloads?
Try running CWM 3.0.0.6? I think is the previous version
I was having a ton of problems with 3.0.2.5 constant boot animation loop
couldn't get past any of the roms boot animations
I odin'd back to EC05, completely rerooted with the previous clockwork and it flashed good after the second time of course
had the double boot logo at first lol
if that doesnt work you could go into the bonsai recovery, I havent had any problems with that recovery at all
i m on stock froyo(EC05)(stock kernel 2.6.32.9) with latest rom manager and clockworkmod(5.2.7) ,backup choice on recovery menu is missing ,is there alternative for this? i want backup before flashing to new rom
everytime i choose backup on rom manager the phone restart and go to recovery menu where there only 4 choice :
reboot
apply zip file
wipe data/factory reset
wipe chace partition

You need a custom kernel that supports it. Stock does not. Come out of the dark ages and flash a GB ROM and download CWM 5.027 in ROM Manager and also flash it to your phone.

That's a very good choice and should work well for you. It should have the stock camera in it. Then your power menu and ROM Manager will work again.

I'm not sure if clean gb has this mod incorporated, but here is a link to the stock camera app that will not shut off below 10% battery and has a silent shutter option.

It is still android... all apps will work.

Alright, so I was running MIUI on my phone, and I decided to check out some other roms. I flashed the All Stars rom, wasn't too fond of it, then I flashed CM10. After flashing CM10, the default android keyboard kept crashing (it would continually pop up saying it has stopped every few seconds or so.) Also, my when I unlock my phone, there is no lock screen. Thirdly, my home button, well, doesn't do anything when I push it.
I'm really not sure what to do at this point, I flashed AOKP and the problems still persist. Any ideas on what I could do? Thanks.

cwm 5.0.2.7
Here's an update, I unrooted my phone, flashed back to stock and everything worked fine, rooted again, still fine. Now whenever I flash a rom, the problem comes up again. The default stock browser isn't working either. Any help on what is going on would be greatly appreciated!
if you're using cwm 5.0.2.7, then you need to use darkside scripts.

If CWM 5.0.2.7 is still not working for you, update to CWM 6.0.x.x or even better try flashing and using the latst TWRP recovery system.
Make sure you do the proper data/cache wipes before flashing the ROM again. Also, flashing the proper Gapps file for the specific ROM may help you fix the issue you are having with the home button and possibly the application issues you are having.

Hello,
I'm sorry if this is a repost of any sort . I am currently running a 4.1.2 rom and as it turns out any 4.1.2 rom that I run will have a functioning camera for my phone. However whenever I try to flash any 4.2 .2 rom on my phone the camera ceases to run correctly. I'm flashing the rom with clockworkmod touch and I have also tried flashing a camera fix I found on xda. I have even tried using third party camera apps, but those don't work either. Can anyone try to point me in the right direction or even try to help me troubleshoot this thing??
Thanks in advance

i'll begin with the question of what did you wipe before you flashed 4.2.2 and what ROM/release have you tried flashing?
Flash to factory stock and if ur camera still doesn't work it must logically be a hardware issue. Please guys correct me if I'm wrong

I had just updated cwm to the latest touch version about a month ago. After that I was still on stock TW 4.1.1. Then, I tried flashing a 4.2.2 jellybam v7.6 and the camera stopped working so I flashed back to stock and the camera worked fine. I then tried flashing to the latest realease of CM 10.1 nightly
about 3 weeks ago but the camera didnt work so I flashed to 4.1.2 CSROM v1.4 then 1.5 and the camera worked fine. So I then tried CM10.0 4.1.2 and the camera still worked so last night I flashed to the latest CM nightly and the camera stopped working. Any thoughts?

I did and it still works. So it can't be a hardware issue. It has to do with how my phone flashes the software because I haven't seen anyone else having the same issues with the ROMS that I have been flashing.

if the camera stopped working simply from updating your current ROM to the latest release than a wipe and reflash could possibly have ironed out this issue. this is assuming you dirty flashed the update. we all do that, but in the event things dont funtion properly afterwards, a wipe is required.

Well before I flashed any rom I always wiped all user data, I wiped the cache and dalvik cache and in some cases I even formatted the system in advanced settings. In every case the camera never worked.

i would back everything up. you have a working nandroid to fall back on?
then i would fully wipe the device and start over. you seem to be having problems with 4.2.2, not specifically aosp. it appears aosp and touchwiz 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 are working for you. correct? when transitioning android versions, its basically required to wipe everything in order to avoid issues. make sure you have the latest gapps for 4.2.2. that may be your problem right there.
in the event you choose to wipe and reflash a 4.2.2 rom,
- backup your files
- have a nandroid, the rom you want and gapps on a micro sd card.
- boot into recovery
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik
- format /system
- format /data + media
- flash rom from external sd card
- flash gapps from external sd card
- reboot and let your phone sit a few minutes then reboot again. check it out.
you wont get any ROM support from devs on your issues until you come from a complete wipe. a hassle to set everything up again but it will likely be your fix. if not, we can go a different direction.
Alright I'll try this now. I will keep you updated

ROM: cm-10.1-20130521-NIGHTLY-d2att
Gapps: gapps-jb-20130301-signed
EDIT: The problem described in the post#11 has always been the case
i would do 1 of 2 things: flash this 4.2 camera zip in recovery and see if that camera and gallery work or flash a different 4.2.2 ROM like tasks. this will help determine if its just cm10.1 thats giving you grief.
if you download and flash the 4.2 camera, just wipe cache, dalvik and flash the zip. in the event you get a freeze up when taking a picture with auto-focus, you have to set the scene to "Action" mode.

Alright so I ended moving the gallery, then flashing the new camera app in CWM then wiped the cache and dalvik. No luck, so I tried restarting my phone, fixing permissions, and nothing worked. I then full wiped my phone and flashed Vanilla Rootbox, tested camera and it didnt work. It still said "Camera Error- Can't connect to camera" . . I flashed the camera zip provided followed by a cache and dalvik wipe but I got the same message. Following the above steps I did the exact same thing with AOKP and the exact same thing happened.
