CM 11 d2lte camera still not working

xBAU5 · Apr 27, 2014

hey there,

so im using an s3 i747m on rogers(at&t) currently running the latest nighly on d2lte (04/24) and for the past 3 weeks i haven't been able to get my camera to work.

ive tried using twerp (always been using cwm), numerous different ROMS, multiple clean installs and nothing.

my modem is the: I747MVLUEMK5
My bootloader is : I747MVLUEMK5

im having a hard time doing anything and im seriously at this point stressing about just finding a replacement phone cause it feels like i permanently messed up my camera.

I know its not the actual camera cause usually after a cache/delvik wipe the camera will work for the the first time i open the app, and then will crash if i a) close the app 2) switch to front facing

ive also tried the restartcamera.apk

thank you

Do you have the same problem with other ROMs? Give Validus 13's ROM a try.

Yea ive tried slimbean, AOKP, and liquid smooth. same problem.

I'm not sure but are those ROMs based on cm11? I suggest trying validus.

xBAU5 · Apr 29, 2014

They're based on cm11. is there any other options you can recommend ?

just to make sure can you verify you have mk5 bootloader and do a clean install of a Tw ROM on Odin that will flash all the needed firmware of the camera and test it after that if it works normally install your custom ROM sounds like a camera corrupted firmware I have your device with out any issues on largest nightlys

Download the 4.3 rom from here for your carrier: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

Launch Odin, place the downloaded file in the PDA section, uncheck auto reboot, flash, when you see Reset in the status window, disconnect the usb cable, remove battery, insert battery, boot to recovery, wipe data and cache, boot phone.

I just installed the correct one, followed the instructions, currently running stock TW.

BUT camera still messed up. worked on the first time i opened it and crashed immediately after I tried to switch to front facing. still getting "cannot connect to camera" error

Is it possible that your phone has a hardware problem?

Did you wipe the cache, data, and Dalvik before boot stock 4.3 ROM for the first time?

That my friend means there is a HW problem what could suggest as a last resort Remove SD Card, Sim card and Battery for 10 minutes

Only connect the battery and turn on check camera

So you think there's a hardware issue with my FFC ?

back on the CM 11 nightly 04/22 experimental release, the front facing camera worked solidly for a couple of hours, then it stopped again.

Follow the Camera firmware thread and Update your cameras Firmware and try again
