seeing that the revolt thread has been dead for a while, thought i would post the question here also. On the 8/6 build, the camera FCs when you take a picture, only saving a grey pic. Has anyone found a workaround/fix for this? ive tried other camera apps from the play store, but get they all freeze up when taking a picture.
side question, anyone find a working cyanogenmod focal apk?
bump
tried pushing other gallery apks from other aosp roms, but get the same result

Hello,
I would've posted this onto the dev thread for Paranoid Android, but I can't as I don't have enough posts yet.
I have just put on ParanoidAndroind ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727657) - it's JB version. However, turned out that it does not have a camera app. I have read the posts, and downloaded the camera fix that should've fixed the camera (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727657&page=110), but this does not return the camera app itself. I had an app that I bought ages ago (Paper Camera) from Play Store, and indeed I can use my HOX to take pictures with it.
I am wondering though, is there a stock JB camera apk out there that I can get? And while we're at it, could you suggest a camera app (free preferably) that I can find that has features as close to the original HOX sense camera?
Thanks everyone!

try going to the camera app through lockscreen
This problem was there on CM10 also in early stages as camera was working through lockscreen but there was no camera app in app drawer
You can try Owain's Domination CM10, it has AOKP & Paranoid features too
You can also try CM10 or AOKP jellybean ROM
You can try fx camera:

and for burst features: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ish.fastburstcameralite&feature=search_result
I've tried using different roms even tried stock and different camera apps but i'm still having similar problems. For example: when i use the stock camera app, i can see everything just fine. When I take the picture though you can't see anything. I then go to my gallery and take a look at the photos and its just a black picture. Right now i'm using Silent Camera app, When i app loads the screen is very blurry and distorted. After I take the picture though the picture comes out perfectly clear. I'm not sure what's going on. Right now im' using PAC All-star rom. I've tried everything and don't know what to do. Hopefully someone can help me out with this. Thanks!
u tried Odin stock? if GB 2.3.6 camera app out of the box isn't working, it may be a hardware issue
Just thought I'd share this with y'all, not mine BTW. Few bugs.

Can you describe what bug is present on this focal for our gnex?
Doesn't work for me. Missing a lib file?
Is the usual that affects everyone I think. Like trying to go to panorama crashes the app, video seems to be flaky. The rest seems good for the most part.
I don't think you need any libs, I installed it myself like a normal app. I'm on paranoid android 3.69 (I think) toroplus and fancy kernel.

have you been allowed to share this? you said this wasn't yours... and it still has bugs... maybe the developers don't want to share their unfinished work...
anyway tested it... i could open it with no force close but it didn't work well it could take photos but did 3 shots at a time and run slowly when saving or using functions
wait for the final version
i'm using GNex with CM10.1 28/07 nightly

It's in the git and able to be compiled, it's shareable
Just out of curiosity, are you going to keep this updated with new releases/updates of the app?

This is CyanogenMod's new camera app for CM 10.2 called Focal. It's open source so of course you aloud to share it, you can modify it or incorporate it into your own rom to. Alot of rom's use CM as a base because it's open source. Can't wait for Focal to be stable & bug free, it will be amazing
So far the bugs I've noticed are panorama FCs the app and video is very buggy like others have said. Also, when video is buggy, it makes the gallery very unstable and I've had to FC it to get it working again. Lastly, when I open Focal initially, it opens just fine, but any subsequent opening just shows a black screen unless I FC the app first and that doesn't always work. And it keeps the soft keys in landscape position. It does seem to shoot faster than the stock camera app and even the Moto X's camera app and has more options than both...just need to have all the bugs ironed out and I think it will be a very good app.
Yeah cm rocks if it's completed it will surely replace my stock camera
There is no quick access to the gallery, is there?

force close after installed the app
I am currently running CyanogenMod 11 (M3) for t-mobile. I really need help fixing my camera. I was having problems with my camera earlier but now it is constantly force closing. Just recently the camera updated to Google camera and I was hoping the force would not occur any more, but now it's even worse. If any ideas how to fix PLEASE tell me because I have many needs for the camera. This how the problem occurs: I try to take a picture and it will take it then it will freeze and I have to kill the app. Then I try to restart the app but I get an "Camera error: cannot connect to the camera." The problem was really bad after I flashed the ROM so I deleted that camera and flashed a "better" one. I try to use the other features of this updated Google camera but none of them work such as: lens blur, panorama or photo sphere . I would really love having these features working or even taking regular pictures without any force closes. I have to use the camera everyday so please help as soon as possible. Please anyone help me solve this problem!!!! (Current Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-T999)
Thanks for the help in advance!!!!
Go back to stock..
I tried the new Google camera on C-ROM and had the same problem. Like the previous poster said, go back to CM stock camera.

If you really want to stick with CM 11, maybe try flashing Ktoonsez's kernel. I've been having this camera issue (that's only temporarily fixed if I reboot) for a while, but yesterday I flashed KT747 and it's been working since (knock on wood).
Hi,
i am using Pimpdroid 2.5.0 20140323 on my Tab3 10.1 3G GT5200 which is working quite good. Unfortunately I cannot get the camera and the gallery to work. Neither the camera which comes with the rom nor the AOSP Kitkat Camera is working. All of them apps keep crashing once they are started.
Though I did not find anything concerning problems with camera in the Pimpdroid thread i assume camera should be working.
Is there anybody facing similar problems and who can give me a clue what I can do to make camera an gallery working?
Thank you.
hi
not promising anything, does gallery crash too ?
if not, does it say anything like no pictures of files when it's up and running ?
it seems like gallery and camera work together like that in some roms
i found this in a rom porting thread by ArjunrambZ
search forums for how to port roms to your device, you have to scroll down a ways
looking for the gallery force closes fix
there might be something useful in that
also on your sdcard should be a folder DCIM andin that another folder .thumbnails
bye
