I would post this in the Android Development, but cannot since i have not posted much.
Aaaaanyway, seen an issue that other are having with the rom that I would like to fix if I can. Camera will not go into video recording as it FC's every time. Same with if you try barcode scanner and the likes.
So far I have reflashed, deleted email.apk, camera.apk, camerafirmware.apk, tried hacked camera.apk, stock.apk, blah blah.
Wondering if someone found a different cause and or solution.
Was using Serendipity but not sure I ever noticed if it was aproblem since I barely use these functions these days.
Was fine when it was stock (way back when).

Since you have deleted Email.apk you are having this problem. Advice you to not delete apps that are needed for the ROM to function properly
Sorry..
Misunderstood.
I noticed that in your thread to give it a try, that it worked for some people so I did, not that it happened after I did.
Wow that sentence looks retarded.
Lets try it again. Had the camera and barcode issues THEN tried the above.

Ok let me take a step back. Do you mean that just after a fresh install you are facing this problem? I mean you havent restored apps+data using Tibu etc?
Edit: people who had problem either deleted Email.apk or CameraFirmware.apk and thats what my first impression was
Oops, misunderstood that post on the email delete.
Anyway, I have reflashed with no luck to the fix.

I am running the same version 3.3 right now a fresh flash and just recorded a video.. Let me know if you used Tibu to restore apps+data.. thats my next guess
Yes
Correct. Issue still after re-flash, no TiBu yet.
On a seperate note, I really like the rom. Looking forward to the possible blue theme. Came from Serendipity which I liked as well.
Don't necessarily need these functions (I barely use them), I just like to have things fixed.
Ok now one last thing that i can try would be to request you to download the ROM package again.. ODIN back to JF6 for a fresh install.. Flash the fresh downloaded package and see what happens.. you may have a bad download is my last guess
Will do
I will try another re-flash.
What do you thing Tibu is messing with (if that is it)?
it might just affect if by mistake any system app or data is included in the list which can cause camera to FC
EDIT: PM me if you cannot stil get camera to work. Would be happy to help
Still reflashing. I will let you know how it goes.
Again great work on the ROM. I am just being a perfectionist on something I barely use.
That did the trick. Maybe bad download.
I will also have to be more selective on what I let TiBu restore.
Thanks and keep up the good work. Again looking forward to Bluebread.
Alright now keep enjoying 3.3 till you see a 4.0 coming your way, and a blue theme too

I have re-installed this ROM twice on my captivate sgh-i897 ... the video-camera does NOT work. period. moved on to continuum's rom, because ... the video camera works, for one.
Twingerbread is a nice rom, but has anyone thought about flashing to Apex (i think 5.2 is the latest). Unless i am wrong, it replaced Twingerbread.
If I am wrong, PLEASE don't start calling me an idiot. I do sometimes get facts mixed up.

you mean you installed ApeX 5.2 and without restoring your apps + data with TiBU camera wasnt working for you? I have heard this problem before and everytime it was restoring apps+data using TiBU that was causing issue.. or let me know if you have deleted email.apk?
Does the same thing happen if another backup app is used? I've used My Backup Root since I started flashing, and I've never experienced anything look that(and I ran Apex 5.1 for about a week before going to Continuum v4).

Just today I upgraded to the latest Cyanogen release (4.2.12.2) on my G1 from pre-4.1.99, and any time I attempt to open either the Camera or Camcorder, it Force Closes, and returns me to the home screen.
I've tried cleaing the cache/data for both the Camera and Camcorder, but that didn't appear to fix the issue. I've also run the fix_permissions command as well, which didn't help either.
Any ideas on what might help fix this problem?
run fix_permissions from console... and post in correct section next time
I apologize for having posted this in the wrong section - where does it belong?
Also, I stated in my OP that I ran the fix_permissions command; from the console was implied.
In the 4.2.12.2 thread.
Thread Moved to Q&A.
I just tried two things: first just wiping and flashing the Cyan Rom again, and that didn't fix it.
Then, I wiped, installed the 1.6 base rom, and then Cyan Rom on top of that, and I still get Force Closes for both the camera and camcorder.
So, I'm still stuck. Any more ideas?
Do you have any apps that use camera (Google Goggles, Barcode Scanner, etc)? You may have to wipe data from those as well.
Also, do you have apps2sd? If so, wiping is not as effective as it is without it. If you do apps2sd then you need to run this from terminal
Code:
su
rm -r system/sd/dalvik-cache/*
reboot
Good luck.

I tried running these commands in the Terminal Emulator, and after the reboot, I still get FCs when trying to open the Camcorder and Camera.
I collected the log, and have attached what I believe to be the relevant portion of it to this message.
Any more ideas?
same here!!!
I am having the exact same issue as you show in the log file
have had some success in reflashing base rom but it only works for a day or so (or hours in some cases)
believe it to be an issue with the drivers but something is killing the camera every time
have removed all apps and reflashed but now it just keeps fc
if any of the devs working on camera issues could have a look please help
cheers

I tried reflashing the radio (2.22.19.26I from http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/)
My camera is still dead (force closes)

Much respect for Cyanogen and all he does for further the HTC Dream: G1 community.
However, if you are having so many issues maybe its time to change to
another Rom altogether. Just my 2 cents..

Here's a few more pennies my good man, if the camera is a deal breaker then consider my above comment and change Rom.

I too a while back had problems installing roms and constantly seeing FCs on my phone. .
The way I fixed that problem was using a bigger/better/faster microSD card I already had.
( @Cqms: I see you already have a newer microSD however, perhaps formatting it after backing up your contents first suits you and then copying everything back once finished. Finally wipe completely/flash Rom and you're set).
Formatted it fat32, since I copied my data on the pc first I copied what I had to the new one.
And finally installed what in my opinion to be one of the best Roms (see my signature) through the wipe/flash procedure and have been extremely happy since.
Camera is back (sort of!!)
Ok as suggested by Legend in above post - wiped formatted etc and flashed super D ROM
Camera comes back but has some kinda solarisation effect which I cant seem to get rid off.
Added to this is my contacts and dialer keep fC ing on me so this ROM is a non runner for me even with a semi working camera
getting closer to the fix though
maybe ima try reflashing cyanogens latest again and see if i can sort the weird effect on the camera
heres hoping
j.
EDIT:
RESOLVED
THANKS GREG :-D
ok heres the scoop
i first starting noticed it today when just messing around trying diffferent apps (check out "spring ball" simple but fun!) the app downloaded, but upon completion, the market.vending force closed. i tried and retried and retried and no apps would install. thinking the issue was my rom, i did a fresh wipe and reflash. market worked!
-regawmod
later in the day the issue started again. fresh wipe and reflash. market worked!
-regawmod
again.
-regawmod
sick and tired of reflashing, i flashed fresh 2.0d in hopes to avoid the error. flash was sucessful, had fun themeing, market worked! once again, messing around with some new apps, the issue persisted. fresh wipe and reflash. market worked!
again.
-fresh2.0d
again
-fresh2.0d
GOD DAMMIT. in hopes to correct whatever the issue was i flashed damages latest, thinking, hey, its the closest to stock thats available in regards to 2.1, shouldnt have any issues. issue STILL persists.
i posted the issue in flipz thread, with a confirmation of the same issue from another user, but no fix (mondays apparently arent dev days lol; FLIPZ WHERE ARE YOU?!)
information:
i have the latest prl and flipz pri. i have stock radio and latest recovery (green nexusbear :-D). the fact is, whatever rom i flash, in the BEGINNING i am able to download all my apps, but after about a half hour, everytime i download an app from the market, it finishes downloading, then the market force closes, and the app just sits there at "xxx sucessfully downloaded" no install at all. i can still install from my SD card. at the beginning of every flash, i admit i go on a huge deletion spree via root explorer, but i have done my research and know what is safe to remove, i dont think thats the issue; maaaybe it is?
normally i would post a logcat, but i cant download and install it to post it!
anymore confirmations of the same issue, any FIXES?

i let it sit for a few before installing anything
i installed a few apps, and it went great

as soon as i downloaded and installed metamorph and applied the 3g icon, the market force closed.
going in for your fix now, greg

It's in apps like google maps 5 which allow you to rotate the map using multitouch.
Sorry for the confusion.
Also, it might work for MIUI. There's nothing special about the fix.. it just adds permissions for the discrete multitouch interface.
works with nightly 174.
i flashed to miui, doesnt appear to have changed anything?

Well I'm not sure what to say.. the update has worked fine on many phones (even a moto droid).. so I'm sure it works.

It's my own fault for not creating a backup first. I thankfully did a full backup on 12-15 so I'm restoring that now (after doing a full wipe).
I'm running CM 6.1 stable, Invisiblek #17 AOSP kernel. I don't think you're creating a malicious post. Who knows where the problem lies. It could have been anything and just triggered with the fix you posted. I'll let you know how it goes after the restore.

I was running 6.1 stable. After flashing over with the 184 nightly, rotate didn't work for me either. Restored back to 6.1 and applied this fix, and now it's working fine.
I've flashed over many nightlies with no issues, always assuming all of the fixes were in place. Do the changes in the nighties only completely apply with a full wipe? Do some of them not apply with a flash over? Actually in this case it appears they don't. That is concerning...

I went through this same hell today. Spent about two hours trying to find a fix, and then realized I had some backups in the efs folder that went by the name of ".nv_data.bak".
I backed up the efs folder using ADB, then deleted all the nv* stuff in there except for that one backup, and renamed it to nv_data.bin. I restarted my phone and my IMEI was back to normal (and after a cache deletion from Download Manager, Google Services Provider, and Market, Market worked fine again).
I don't even know why my IMEI was screwed up in the first place.
If you email me your nv_data.bin I can at the very least look at it and see if I can find any glaring problems with it. Send me a PM and I'll send you my email if you'd like.
Yeah i need serious help with this... I tried almost everything. I did this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8983897&postcount=103 and it shows its pushing the right IMEI number that starts with a 3. but instead i rebot and its the same 0444 number
also to ensure i did it somewhat right, i pulled the .imei and opened it up in wordpad and it is the right number, so it means something is wrong with my nv_data.bin

After flashing CyanogenMod the other day, I decided I didn't like it too much. ( Mind you, I just use my phone for basic phone stuff, so please don't flame me for it. xD ) So I used a nandroid to go back to my original (rooted) stuff.
However, in doing this, it seems that it messed up my Market app somehow.
Whenever I try to search, open, or do anything involving the Market App, it'll say: Attention. A network error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen.
It's been like this for a while now. I can use internet, voice-to-text, and anything else that requires data ( not even WiFi works with Market ), but not Market.
What can I do to fix this?
Full wipe. Fresh install of rom+gapps.
Yea its Me Again With The
Modified Hero
@laie - he said he nanded back to rooted stock
@OP - try the nand restore again? Otherwise you could try adb shell fix_permissions?

It tells me that "fix_permissions: not found"
Edit: I've got it fixing now, will edit with update.
Edit(2): It didn't help, sadly.
I don't even remember, but does rooted stock 1.5 allow you to install non-market apps? If so, go find a market 2.3.6 apk on xda or google. Delete the one you have, boot into recovery wipe cache and then reboot, install the app - see if that'll work.
Nope, that didn't work sadly... Ironically, my Market worked perfectly without the updates installed. Is it possible just to block all updates for the Market apk?
this might work for you. a friend was having similar problem. this is what i did (note, i really really think that it was pure coincidence but...) go to SETTINGS -> APPLICATIONS -> MANAGE APPS. locate Market, if Force Stop is not greyed out. then click it, then click Clear Data.
like i said, his was having the same problem, i really think that it may have been a coincidence, but maybe not.

Yes, you need to delete the system app "marketupdater.apk". Also, if you go into settings/manage apps/all/market - can you click the button "uninstall updates"? If not, do you know what market version you had that worked? If so try to find and install that one using the same steps as I mentioned before. If that doesn't work, I'm at a loss.
Also what ngholson just posted is a good idea along with clear cache from the same menu.
I hope you get it figured out, good luck.

Yea and??? He can still start fresh. He posted he did a nand back to his rooted stuff. Which means he can srart fresh. As in wipe data,cache dev-cache and sd-ext. Boot up and then reboot back into recovery reflash gapps. Boot up. Load tb go into settings, manage apps locate market force stop and clear data. Open tb up locate market updater apk. Uninstall. Reboot should be good.

Must have been, I tried it with no luck, but I'm glad it worked for your friend.

The problem version is 2002306, oddly enough, I've overheard some other people having problems with it as well at a place a friend works. Maybe it's a stock hero thing. I'll revert to an older version, maybe one day this will clear itself out.
Thank you everyone for participating in helping me. At least it was a good effort.

Laie I was just telling you, don't get all frisky. If you read the OP again, you'll see he WANTS to be on stock 1.5. I couldn't tell you why lol. Maybe you forgot (it's been forever) but stock and sense based ROMs already contain gapps. You only flash those on AOSP based ROMs, so he can't reflash gapps. If he wiped and then nand restored it would've restored /system which is where the market would live in a stock ROM. His issue was likely a market auto-update which did not agree with old ass donut stock. Who knows. I wasn't bashing you, and I'm not now, calm down. Hopefully this info helps you help someone later. Peace.
OP- I have ONE MORE idea. Go grab a themed market zip from xda member "pendo" - he has green, blue, and red. They should flash from recovery. Delete your current market app FIRST, and clear cache and dalvik cache in recovery, flash and reboot. Good luck.
EDIT: 2 ideas I guess, copy the nand backup to your computer, find the "marketupdater.apk" in /system/app and delete it out of the nand. Copy that new nand to the same place as the current one you have and try to wipe all then restore that newish one.... I actally have NO idea if you can alter a nand or the system.img it contains, but it may be worth a shot. You could also just give up, and get gingerbread, because it's AWESOME.

LOL agreed.
@OP - You could also try one of the *ahm* market replacements. like *ahm* applanet or something (not sure how 'legal' they are but...)
also, i know someone mentioned it before but did you ever get your permissions fixed? if not try that too, you can do it from ROM Manager.

Duce were in the op does he say he's looking to get back to 1.5??? Humm think you might be reading to much " lol " eyes playing tricks on you??? He said he restored his rooted stuff. Not restored 1.5. And nope I remember 1.5 and I'm aware of the gapps only flash with aosp. I posted my comment because he didn't say 1.5 so I took a guess as he was not on 1.5 because he didn't mention it. So mabey this will help you help someone in the future slow it down when ya read. Because you know what happens when you assume. "" Read slow "" duce read slow lol

@il Duce
Pendo's themed market wouldn't flash, sadly. And it's a shame too, because they look really great.
@ngholson
I looked into that, but it's permissions are a bit much.
@laie1472
I'm really sorry, you're right, I forgot to mention what I'm using.
It's:
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Build: 2.27.651.5
Again, I'm sorry for not mentioning that.
I redid everything on it, the only thing I haven't touched is the radio file.
When I tried CyanogenMod 6 at the start of this thread, it had me flash 2.42.01.04.27. Could that be the problem?
And I'm terribly sorry for the delay in replying. Other issues are stealing my time.
Ok let's start from scratch. What rom,recovery, kernel & mods are you using?? Also whats your prl, and are you s-off???

That's about it. I think it's all worked flawlessly until the radio, but I'm not sure. If I'm missing any info, please let me know.
maybe consider starting completely over. download a new rom, i recommend aospcmod. download the latest version of gapps at the same time. if you don't already have it install ROMManager from errr. damnit your market doesn't work... hopefully you already have it. Open rom manager and install a custom recovery (i recommend clockworkmod) once that is done copy both the new rom and gapps zips to your sdcard, reboot to recovery (either manually or using rommanager) wipe everything. then select 'choose zip from sdcard' (or similar, can't remember exact verbiage) and install your ROM, then before you let it reboot, then use the same option and install gapps as well, then reboot. follow setup and it should work fine.
