Default Camera screen turns black after siyah kernel flash

Hi! I'm in a rooted phone, used Liquid Perfection way, flashed insecure kernel and then secure back, then i found siyah kernel, it looks cool!!! So i did flash it, everything works OK, but when you try to use the camera it will take the photo but you can't see where you are shoting, cause the screen truns black!

So I did flash back the secure kernel and camera work OK, takes photos and you can see in the screen.

It's a bug in the siyah kernel (flashed the last release) or it's because my rom? (Russian LP8 LQ6 Samsung stock 4.0.4) Or becuse i'm too noob?

Thanks!

I don't know about the method you used, flashing Siyah gives you root also. If you could flash back your stock kernel and remove the Superuser application (really I'd remove the binary but I haven't a clue how to do that) then flash Siyah Kernel so you'll gain back root access.

Thinking now it maybe a firmware issue, it just may affect 4.0.4.

How did you help? It's people like you just want to fill up the thanks bar without any substance in your mind and posts.

It's a bug with siyah on 4.0.4 stock ROMs. I had same issue there is an easy fix which is a simple zip flash in this forum which I can confirm works. I think it's in the original development thread. Next siyah update will fix this bug. I also tried Galaxian kernel which is a 4.0.4 kernel and it never had the camera bug.
