Camera Fails to Load? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hey I just bought a T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 and the camera Fails to Load. Any input on this?

You could wipe data cache factory or Default camera options.

I tried wiping the app data. Let me try a factory reset. If that doesn't work then what?

Change of Rom.

So root it, install cwm, make a nandroid backup, and flash a new rom? Where's a good guide on how to root the ics updated s2?

From the way you worded this I'm assuming you didnt put any custom roms but just got the phone and set it up. Try doing a factory reset and/or if it doesnt work, would you be willing to try a custom rom and see if the camera works on it? If it doesnt work on a rom either then somethings wrong with the phone and I would suggest getting a replacement.
NOTE: Wait for a few other replies because someone else may have had a similiar problem and this is just a extreme.
Btw, make sure you keep track of your 20 day warranty for a full new replacement.

Also considering there is something Bad with the software try flashing any other rom i recommend you a soft one.

Talked to Samsung Support and they are going to replace it for free. Also offered to pay the shipping both ways! Thanks guys.

Happened to me all I did to fix it was a simple restart lol seriously

Ouch, I wasn't aware that the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 had CarrierIQ, the battery-draining performance-sapping privacy-invader.
I came from the Sprint Galaxy S2, and there was a fairly involved mod to remove it.

Hopefully one of our ROM devs here can work the same magic.
Did you flash a Rom? Because I believe its only in the stock Rom. juggernaunt Rom doesn't have this process.

If your root i suggest making a nandroid backup. Then use titanium back up to remove the process.
I know its just don't know if its going to boot loop. Because this **** steals everything from us.

I told you make a nandroid back up and remove the process with titanium backup. If its boot loops. Remove the battery and restore your back up from clockwork recovery.

I froze it with titanium with no negative effects so far. When I had an evo3D I had a kernel that blocked it completely from communicating with the network and even if installed again it would be unable to connect to anything. Any developers know of a way to get this done with our phones?
For all of those unaware of carrierIQ its a logging program for usage stats run by a company hired to get user stats for carriers. Its methods are extremely intrusive it can read KEYPRESS logs as well as has access to just about every scrap of data on your phone. Do a Google search. Big brother stuff.

it isn't in the juggernaunt rom i believe the developers already removed the process. the evo 3d has a locked boot loader. Samsung does not like i said try removing it with Titanium back up if it fails well nandroid. I'm actually looking in titanium back up myself. You can actually download the roms and open with 7zip or winrar go to system and see if its there.

Did you notice any battery performance improvement?

wtf? ideas?

well **** me running. i flashed the new stock LJC odex rom and now my phone will not connect to the cell network. just sits at preparing services. like it doesnt recognize the radio or something. restored my backup and it still does it. ill be restoring to stock through ODIN in a few. anyone have any ideas wtf happened?
ohh and once it goes to sleep. it no longer wakes up
restoring to stock in ODIN didnt work either. it simply will not initialize the radio.
Did you try downloading the LJC odex Rom again? Maybe you had a bad download.

yes, mine screens look the same as well. what was it that you flashed before this happened? i had sprint go ahead and ship me a new one for free since i;ve had it less than 2 weeks. so i am experimenting on mine at the moment.
hell, i cant even use adb because it doesnt recognize the phone or mount the internal or external sdcards. the only thing i can do is flash tar files in odin to the phone but the system still reads as "custom." going to try a few more things to see what's what.
Flashed to aljc then restored a nandroid and then it happened.

This is why u dont restore data from previous builds and roms. Its one of the easiest ways to f stuff up. Much better to just keep current backups of apps and data in the system not in nandroids. Its more pain in the ass but saves u crap like this. System data on nandroids isnt always compatible with newer builds. Plus its better to always start fresh anyway

Sprint G Nexus MMS?

I been trying to figure this out for ever to no avail. Why when on stock 4.2.1 I can send and receive mms just fine using lte/cdma network with the stock messaging app but not on any of the custom roms? It works just fine with 3rd party apps though. I would really appreciate if someone could help me get this sorted so I can once again enjoy custom roms. Thanks

I used to have the same issue but with some of the new 4.2.2 and even 4.2.1 based roms it works. I have been using sourcery for quite a while now and haven't had any mms issues over the last couple of builds. Definitely worth checking out and you rarely see anybody with mms issues in the thread.

when you flash it be sure you wipe dalvik, cache, factory reset, system, then delete android folder before flashing so you have a completely clean install. let market restore then reboot and then try your mms.
I can delete android folder from recovery? Also I always wipe dalvik, cache and factory reset but never system. Won't I lose all my backups and stuff if I do system?

if you are using twrp you can delete it via the file explorere. system just wipes the os not storage. whatever you do dont delete storage/sd then you will not be able to do anything.
i use twrp, i am not sure about cwm but i'd recommend twrp over cwm bc it is easier.
Yes I use twrp. Thanks

For those having issues, have you guys fully ported your Sprint number to Google Voice? Thinking this may be causing the problem. I managed to get MMS received by unchecking the "auto receive" option. Still can't send though. This is frustrating.

Camera issues

Sometimes it takes longer than a couple of hours before someone can help.
Anyways, can we have a little more information?
When you downloaded CM10.1, did you do check the md5sum to make sure your download wasn't corrupted somehow?
When installing these various AOSP Roms, did you just wipe /data and /cache?
In past Roms, have you ever tried a camera mod or something that might affect the camera?
Are you using a custom Kernel?
I would try the following:
Verify that your download was complete (md5sum). If not, redownload.
Do a full system wipe. Not just a factory reset. I'm thinking something left over in your /system is interfering with your camera.
I've done all that bro.... no cam mods... nothing... everything is as it should b... and it only happens on AOSP roms for me.. on two different s3's... I don't need a fix I just wanna know if I can just use another camera app.. if so.. can someone lead the way

try downloading an apk for a different camera. also trying making sure you kill all your apps and release some ram. I never had the cam issue but had so laggin issues n what I just explained fixes all that. also when u downloading the rom and installing it. did it give u the option to choose different cameras? like with morph we get to pick which cam app is wanted.

A lot of people including myself have exactly the same problem. And I already had a working wallet before trying to update. And restoring the exact same older wallet that worked the very day before, now fails at exactly the same spot. Suggesting the problem is on the server side not on our phones.
Google wallet support has told multiple people, including me, that it's a known problem and they're working on it and there is no estimated time frame for a fix.
But please do call the support number found in the menu in Wallet if only to add to the number of calls so they take it seriously.

Well, I guess that shoots a hole in the hypothesis you need a stock kernel to install. I guess it's back to thinking about it some more.
At this point there are so many things that can mess with a wallet installation. Best bet is to go to stock rom and stock recovery and go from there, otherwise there are so many different variations of roms and kernels that everyone has a different story and they will all work differently.
