ok steps for working frontcam (by Cpt. Captain)

- Arcos Alpha 3
- Oisis Camera_experimental-0.1.zip
- wipe Cache
- wipe Dalvik
- fix permissions

he tested some thirdpart apps and then
he started stock cam, it was workíng, but he couldnt take pictures, he played around with the options, clicked on the shutter of video, he switched to frontcam and videorecording was working.

now we are all waiting for your logcat Cpt. Captain

and here it is (it looks good with the app "alogcat" .you all can use this app from google play store for making logcat. so i hope we will become more next time
:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/49291099/alogcat.2012-05-24-22-28-21%2B0200.txt

thanks to Cpt. Captain (he can't post here, because he hasn't enough posts)

new info: he reported also, AUDIO was working in videorecording with frontcam

he can play the recorded videofile with sound.
edit: but the videos rotated on device 180° and on pc 90° by playback..
he said the camera is only working after some tries. but if it is working than he can open the cam again and again successfuly

edit: here is a logcat of a failed try (from Cpt. Captain )

This is getting better and better.

At another forum someone said that "panorama" is also working.

Xistance · May 24, 2012

It would be even better if that stuff worked for everyone >.<

videorecording with dhd camera?

Yeah, just tested. It works but only for one time at boot. It would be great if we could fix this :/. Oh and I can confirm audio being recorded as well.

Edit: Seems we don't have to reboot just to test. It works after uninstalling an app as well...

In ICS we have only:
-rw-r--r-- root root 131416 2008-08-01 14:00 libcamera.so
-rw-r--r-- root root 129856 2008-08-01 14:00 libcamera_client.so
-rw-r--r-- root root 55424 2008-08-01 14:00 libcameraservice.so
-rw-r--r-- root root 582228 2008-08-01 14:00 liboemcamera.so
So maybe try to add missing libs . And logcat .

Sorry, I'm out for the next 5 days and can not flash things on my phone. Maybe someone else could be so kind to try it and see if it changes anything?

Copied all *camera* and *vi* files grepped out of GB but ICS is stuck on boot.
Will restore and copy only those non-existing to see if it blows up.

Restored ics libs, copied missing GB libs, behaviour is as without those files: can take shots with camerazoomfx and puddingcam (back camera) but fc on video and freezes on switching to front cam. Time to bed... will try to play a little tomorrow, upload logs an stuff..

thank you for testing

will anybody help, too?

OT:
Put this to yours /system/etc/ and say goodbye to ads

.

We can try GPU libs from Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY because it is phone for games so maybe GPU drivers will be better.

Sorry for OT.

I noticed that to! strange thing...

texten · May 24, 2012

i think i will flash cm9 again right now and will test some camera.apk's and camera tweaks

what can i also do?
give me some homework oisis, i have some hours time to test

edit:
i made this command with logcat:
type logcat.txt | findstr camera > nwelogcat.txt

is that output right?

Lens heating up really, I didn't use camera much and I can't tell, but maybe this is normal. But probably not.
OP please add a specific warning to 1st post that could be dangerous to device itself.

can confirm.
i will try with another cpu setup.
edit: seems to be better with max 1200 and powersave

edit:
(all tests will be without gapps and simcard)
here is a first logcat (logcat01.txt), after fresh install and flash of experimental_cam-01
bootup, open cam, switch to video, press record button... racording starts, force close / reboot of bootanimation while tried to stop the record..

logcat01.txt

taking panorama pictures with stock cam works without any issues (logcat02.txt):

On GB, lens, after a few minutes of camera use, is getting warmish, but not hot.

Sorry for OT.

If libs are not the same as drivers, I'm sorry, but Arco already included the drivers made directly by Qualcomm for ICS so they will probably the same as ours.

snipped..
EDIT1:
This combination with libs and Arco "wrapper" will work also on i8150. Thanks for Arco of course, well done.

yes, and i think they have to replace the firmware folder and the mdia_profile.xml withe the ones of their latest gingerbread ...

added these attached files to ics.
nothing new. after reboot, started cam (no picture visibile) switched to frontcam -> camera not found. (logcat03.txt)

----
i have also tried some other camera apk's from htc desire s, from sony xperia mini,mini pro, neo etc and from u8860... they all shows blackscreen or fc's (only with camera_experimental-01.zip)

kamera ics+ from google play store works like the stock cam very unstable, there is no need to buy this

i think we should try some media_profile.xml

texten · May 25, 2012

i have added the camera.apk and from cm7 to /system/app
videorecording is successfully working only on frontcamera(it is also unstable, for example sometimes the rotation is wrong).

when switching to backcam the camera is not found but sometimes the app starts directly with backcam and you can record videos, but you can not stop the recording, fc. (just another advice that maybe the media_profile.xml is not the best)

here is a logcat with videorecording on backcam and fc ... and successfully recording with frontcam with cm7 camera apk and missed kqb libs for ics (from post above) (logcat10.txt):

..............

edit: logcat20.txt with replaced media_profile.xml from cm7 and camera from cm7 and missed kqb libs for ics (from post above) ... first try successfuly recording video with frontcamera, after that switch to backcam - camera not found

we need a camera.apk and a media_profile.xml from a working ics from a similar device - just for testing

.............

edit: here is my last logcat so far. for the next days i can't test....
added missed kqb libs for ics (from post above) and i have replaced the media_profile.xml and the camera.apk with the ones of italianguy.
i was testing a little bit, it seems the autofocus is working... (the focus frame is not red, it is green)
ok, but it was always unstable. so no logcat of these tests.

but one logcat with these files and these steps -> switching to front cam camera not found, second try open the camera app, camera not found (logcat30.txt)

......
sorry, my concentration is gone, i'm tired. good night.

This log is also interesting, camera is looking for libqcamera.so and we do not have it. So let somebody try to find it in Italian guy or stock rom.
Checked one more time and I don't have this library after clean installation alpha3 and camera experimental.

I tried MIUI Camera, I put camera.apk on /system/app then reboot. Now I got 2 camera, 1 default and 1 MIUI.

* Both no preview but I can access video recording
* Video recording in MIUI no FC but generates empty video file.
* Video recording in default cam FC

here's the logcat:
1. logcat for taking pic with MIUI
http://www.mediafire.com/?7zy20cby45n0082
2. logcat for recording video with MIUI
http://www.mediafire.com/?e28e8p47vbhbq56

important note: No preview even on other third party camera app

I hope its readable
