KK 4.4.2 Camera does not work

[JCG3]

I am writting this on the Gen Forum since I am a new user.

I am having issues with the 4.4.2 ROM. I love how light weight and non-sense it is but the camera is broken in the 12-25-2013 build. Even though the title of the rom thread says it does work, it doesnt. I am using JB cam from Market but would love to have the default KK app work.

I am also having issue with battery. I did a full charge with the phone off and it was down 20-25% after just a few hours of use. I didnt know if reseting the batt stats would help or is that just BS?

I DO LOVE the fact that MAP (Message Access Protocol) for Bluetooth is working in the ROM! Finally, my car (2013 Nissan Altima) can send text messages for me! This was supported by Android after 4.4 according to Wikipedia. Now I don't have to buy a new phone!

MODS: IF you need to move this, please do. Just know that I am a new user so I have not gotten my 10 posts...

Thanks for the help in advanced!

It is a gapps bug. Flash a other gapps package

With 29.12. build camera is working again

There isnt any completly 'stable' KitKat stock camera ported yet... but we are getting there! The meaning of 'camera is working' is that previously camera didnt work at all with the first kitkat ports! It took some weeks to finally port a 'working' solution that alloves to use the camera!

in the meantime you can try to flash this gapps camera : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012857

primary this stock camera is working! Few glitches here and there but at least you can take pics or record video and you dont need to install 3rd party apps!

Nexus KitKat cam on Google Store

Thats what it looks like... its really odd... I have tried the stock camera after I just flashed the ROM (12/30/2013) after a FULL wipe of all partitions. I even tried the nexus camera as suggested and it failed in the same way

EDIT: Played around some more and the front camera is fine. Now the back camera is taking pics where there is a green bar in the middle and some there is slight distortion at the bottom. Then the grean bar is at the bottom... I am i the only unlucky one? haha

EDIT 2: Tried flashing the google camera and same thing. Is there something wrong with my phone?

Thanks for the help!

Did u Try latest build??
all camera Work
try a stock ROM to know if its only a ROM or an hardware issue

 

[JCG3]

Get this ...

the panarama works, the globe view works, video works ..... yeah and now the camera works.... argh... dang it.... sorry... I will see if I can break it again... haha.

Thanks again

I think i got it figured out....

So it only happens with in the first couple load cycles after reboot.... then it mellows out or something....

anyway, I will keep an eye on it....

I have attached the image that I was talking about...

On 4.2.2 ROMS at first build of superXE ROM, it was the same thing, to solve that i remember we was able to instal FOCAL...
Maybe that's the way, try it
FOCAL (Beta)

It works on the latest [ROM][4.4.2][UNOFFICIAL]CarbonRom for Sensation[03 Jan]

I am on CM11 by android1234567 with Kernel 52 and for me the camera works fine.

 

[JCG3]

Ok now I am totally lost.... haha. I just downloaded Focal and the camera looks great and the pictures are showing up in preview. Here is where is gets weird:

In the gallery, when I look at the picture in tile mode they all look fine and they have no errors. However, when I select one to view, I get blue shades, grey block, distortion, etc.

I am uploading the pics with this post.

I blurred a few things out that I did not want the whole world to see. Notice the purple in the bigger pic. When I look at the same pic on the computer it has the grey box and the purple what-ever-it-is.

I hope this helps in seeing my issue. And, yes, I have formatted my SD card a few times now. It is S-ON, HBOOT 1.27.00, bootloader unlocked.

Thank you for all your help!

its working just flash the PA stock Gapps and the camera should work fine

 

[JCG3]

I have moved on to Venom 5.x

The camera works in that ROM just fine. I am just not sure what is wrong with the MAP feature of the Bluetooth.

I will create a new thread for that one.

Camera never did work no matter how I flash it. frustrating really. I will track both ROMs for fixes.

Thanks for the help
