I tried another app and the front camera works, but not the back one. Though with the default app I couldn't even test the front one, it closed immediately.
I know for a fact the camera worked fine before flashing the custom ROM, so it's not a hw failure.

When as the last time you checked the camera with a stock ROM? I searched around and there don't seem to be many people with this issue on the note 2. Your phone's model # is gt-n7100?

Yup, GT-N7100.
Last time I checked the camera was just a few days ago. And yeah I've searched for the issue a bit as well, didn't have an luck unfortunately...

Have you tried this ROM? --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-aicp-12-1-official-nightlies-t3569395/page85
I being using it as a daily driver for months, and it's the best one I ever had for this phone.
Few times I've had camera problems, but automagically resolved just after restarting the phone.
Give it a try, and let us know it this was an acceptable solution.
Best of luck.

[Q] Camera Error

I always go the "camera error - can't connect to the camera" when taking photo with rear camera.
HOWEVER, the strange thing is I can record video with the rear camera and the front camera works as well.
I've tried to factory reset, still unsolvable. I have this problem when using CM9 by ipromeh.
One thing I notice is I tried to upgrade to KK 4.4 but failed somehow, is that a conflict or a problem and related to my camera problem ?
PLS help me out !!! =<
ps : i tried using camera360, the error poped out is due to security problem o.o?:crying:

Camera not working is a known issue on AOSP ROMs. Many fixes have been put in place but apparently the camera ignores them. It works if you're lucky (apparently u aren't) but doesn't if have bad luck. Try reflashing another ROM. Might work. Worked for me.
Smack that Thanks button if I helped!

Camera and video sometimes takes a couple of reboots before it is working. Not sure why this is the case but it does solve the issue for me.
Thanks for the great work on XS, deedwar, could you elaborate more on the GPS issue? Have you experienced it?
Today I installed BETA4, and I am very satisfied with battery life and smoothness.

Camera focus issues with 2016-devices on custom roms

Hi there
Looks like i am not the only one, that having issues with the camera focus or autofocus on a newer G4 (H815) with custom roms.
It is definitely not a hardware issue, comes with ALL custom roms so far. it does not relates to stock roms (works fine there - tested many times)
marshell has written down a few posts to this issue. check his profile.
Any dev here, who can help?
Or is there any solution on its way?
Cheers, samukinson
My h815's autofocus is running perfectly with Imperium rom

Yeah, i know., but Imperium rom is based on stock. Genisys too.
This bug only applies aosp, cm13, ..., and apparently on newer G4's (2016)

Hi There, did you personally tested the stock roms without focus issues? Please list a few names I want to test because I am having focus issues with back camera. (I still have lollypop)
Thanks in advance

Hello Guys, I had serious problems to get the back camera to focus when used on landscape mode. I moved back to stock ROM and didn't fix it, this was bad since day one I get the phone. How did I solve the problem? Replace camera module, now works great...!

Hi there? I've been having this problem too, stock or custom ROMS, where did you get the camera module from? Can you please share the details (prices, model number, seller, etc) if you can?

Hello! Actually I did fit it in my local eBay (I live in South America) there are tons of LG G4 who have failed because of the motherboard so finding a replace should be easy but....This phone will continue to give you trouble, try to change it. I was able to receive a refund from Amazon for the whole phone. Good luck!

Mi5s autofocus problem

Hi all
Got new mi5s 4gb vrsion, autofocus do not work when camera start for 10sec-1min , after that all ok
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAZhf2_zmSg
Same thing on oem and eu rom ,as well as few camera apps.
Any help appreciated
Please try autofocus not on a TV, they tend to be hard to focus on. Try it outside in daylight please.
Same thing m8
First time autofocus does not wok for 1 minute, than after than when you start it, does not work for 10-15 seconds.. Works normal for close up objects right on, but for far, no.
Same thing here... Could that be a driver issue?
This issue is known in at least one custom rom. Please make sure that you run an official rom. I believe the xiaomi.eu (not official rom) is also ok.

I'm running latest dev ROM from xiaomi.eu.
I also have the same issue on lastest official China global and China dev
That's not good then Not sure if it's a hardware issue in your case. Haven't read of this issue in the English xiaomi.com forum, so there can't be many with this issue.
I have same problem (4/32GB version). My mi5s arrived today and I couldn`t believe. Now I have two questions in my head "Is that software or hardware" and "Is it possible to be fixed"
I found a workaround (IDK if this works only for me)... Just open stock camera then open and close camera settings (gear icon). The autofocus should work now!
Let me know if this works for anyone else

I have the same issue when I try to take a photo or record a video . We are a lot of people with the same error. You can check the MI5S official forum at MIUI Forum and you'll see more threads talking about the same but there's no anwser from Xiaomi yet.

I'm also looking for a fix... Maybe only a patch for stock camera app until the problem is solved by xiaomi. I'll keep you updated
When I look to /etc/camera directory I can see 3 configs files for imx378 and two specifics for two manufacturers : liteon & semco (samsung). My sensor seem to be a liteon. Could the bug be link to a specific manifacturer ? Maybe a drivers to optimize for a specific manufacturer ?
Some people say that the last EU ROM, 6.12.22, improves the autofocus. Can anyone confirm it?

For me it's the same as on 6.12.8, BUT I tried the unofficial cyanogenmod for MI5S which seems it hasn't any issues in camera autofocus
I have the same problem.
But shaking, or knocking don`t help.
Even if i wait 15-30-60 sec, autofocus don`t work.
But first 2 weeks it works perfectly.

Hows the camera and video quality compared to stock? Have you noticed any bugs yet?
Stupid qn - do we need the ADT toolbox like the site says, or can we just flash with twrp? Could I also ask if Google Apps work fine with this custom rom? Currently away from home with work with limited data, but can't wait to try a custom rom out!

I've just installed. Everything seems fine so far, including working gapps. Except Bluetooth audio. My bluetooth headsets connect successfully, but no sound.... I never used Mokee firmwares before, how often they bring new updates (nightly, weekly)?... I hope they'll fix bluetooth problem very soon....

Maybe I found a bug on camera app. The image quality is at 12mp. Seems only to be one of the sensors. I don't know if it's the same on stock camera app from nubia. Maybe someone on stock can try to pull the apk and I will try to install it.

Mokee is pretty big. But more popular in Eastern countries. They have the same build policy as aicp f.e.
Thank you, working awesome, and gapps work. So quick and much better, I hope Nubia release an international ROM because I like their camera suite. Bluetooth is not working, but everything else is. To get into Fastboot mode it is Vol - and Power button, not Vol +/Pwr button as per the unlocking instruction in the other thread. This is just for other newbies like me that don't know no better.

Zip for debloat ROM: https://mega.nz/#!MdomCAwB!538ZJoNHosKh_viZ6lu1qy70Eko00Ay75MmNL48t-M4
ROM is working really good, could be perfect if Nubia Camera is added to it.
