My camera has always worked

@Ph0enix_216 link sent, crossing fingers now...
I think video is still screwed up, but as long as rear camera works I'm happy

Dirty flashes it and no dice. I can try a clean wipe. You said this one isn't a daily driver but it seems to work fine

Okay, did a clean install, and still no camera

bad_mofo,
in /arch/arm/boot/dts/msm8226-x5_spr_us, replace msm8226-x5-camera.dtsi from your cm12 caf kernel with a copy from the stock kernel. That just got my back camera working on boost mobile and virgin mobile variants on cm11.

I replaced the file and I'm building now. We'll see what happens.

Welp, the camera works... kinda. When I'm indoors, everything has a green night vision-ish tint, but when I'm outdoors and give it a few seconds to adjust to the light, everything looks normal. I'll upload photos soon, I had to re-flash everything and wipe my caches because I was getting Google Play Service crashes that were causing all my other apps to crash.
EDIT: Did a clean install, couldn't get past the setup wizard because Google Services kept crashing. I'm gonna try for a fresh build...

For lack of a better term, we are going to have to go into the caf kernel and decaf certain parts of it. Probably mainly the sensors is the issue. But getting the camera to show up is a great start.

Don't know anything about kernel hacking, but I'll gladly do what I can to help. I've got to Volts right now -- the one that's currently activated is the one having camera issues, while the one I just aquirred is running perfectly, camera and all (both are Virgin Mobile Volts). I can test anything you wanna throw at me and provide feedback, but that's about it. I'm a quick learner though
I wonder if a more recent GAPPS flash would have the same issue in regards to your problems pheonix. The GAPPS are 2 months old but that might not be it since you have to update Play Services when you enter the play store anyway. Has anyone tested a more Recent GAPPS build? idk if it's ok to just start flashing more recent dates willy nilly on my device.

I could try that. I was just gonna try a fresh build but I can try another Gapps package. At this point, it's either have a camera but no working user apps, or a functioning setup without a rear camera.
EDIT: Welp, tried another Gapps package, didn't work. As a side note, the stock AOSP browser doesn't work either, it crashes as soon as you launch it, with or without Gapps installed. I ran "make clean" and am gonna try for a clean build to see if that helps (fingers crossed).

OK, I've been testing the new build aswell. Back camera does not work for me. Things are smoother and there is a slight increase in objective performance as measured by Antutu testing which I did 5x on previous and new builds.So far I have not been plagued by the play services bug and I am using a nightly delta GAPPS build along with a clean flash and the Browser works as well. Maybe it takes longer than 3 hours for the services bug to appear but so far this is daily driver material, I have 35 apps installed and there is less hiccups than when I had 21 installed. Still have a touchscreen issue but that was persistent even on stock so it's probably hardware. Great job BADMOFO33.
Edit:Forgot to add I'm on Virgin Mobile
Edit 2: Video seems to be working much better, crackle works, vine still doesn't work as well as perktv, snapchat vids are working, haven't checked Netflix yet.

Alright, now we've got something! Back camera works, although still with a green-ish tint. I'm not getting any Google Services crashes either, and the default AOSP browser works fine, so I'm guessing I just had a corrupt build earlier. Also managed to get the torch working too

running a new build now, pulled camera.dtsi from LG stock lollipop kernel for w7 device(L90). (Hopefully it fixes camera issues... Thanks @whoshotjr2006)
Also added whoshotjr2006 LED fix and added back the LED options under Display & Lights settings. ReAdded RIL file to get rid of Sim not detected. Added some other picks for various things(cant remember what exactly)
Will post my trees soon on OP.
Just posted my 5/27 build for now until I get new kernel built, dont want to get people hyped before hand.
will probably want you guys to test first....

Hey one of you guys with newly downloaded cm12 or omnirom source. Would anyone feel like being a maintainer for the lollipop version of twrp? It's one extra download more than you have now, about 1mb or so in size and also only takes about a half hour to compile from source the first time.
Anyone feel free to jump in and claim it, if you need help I'll help. I just don't feel like/don't have the room for downloading cm12 source again at the moment or I would do it.
Edit: heres a general guide: http://androidforums.com/threads/recovery-twrp-2-8-5-0-lollipop.902943/page-2#post-6990775
If your using omnirom source, you already have twrp in bootable/recovery. just run mka recoveryimage.

It looks like some file for your toolchain is missing or corrupt. You either have a bad download or your trying to build on an x86 distro instead of the needed 64 bit distro. You are running a 64 bit copy of debian/linux mint/ubuntu/etc right? it also could have something to do with ia32 libs that are needed for building in debian based distributions too.
look through this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/che...to-setup-ubuntu-14-10-utopic-unicorn-t2862442
and make sure you have all the packages it wants you to install and have followed the instructions to a T.

Hey, thanks! I am on a 64-bit distro of Ubuntu, and I followed that post to the letter, I'll post later on how my build goes. And hey, I can be a maintaner for TWRP if you like. My current build machine has 500~GB of space and compiles pretty good, and I'm currently setting up a second build envornment on my Acer C720 Chromebook (just for kicks
).

Hey guys I'm going to give this another shot. Plus I thought we shouldn't let these guides get buried on the site. We should sticky them they have great info in them. Which is why I've linked some treads that contain useful info.

use these trees, compile error is fixed + added some drm stuff to help with video playback
(these are my most recent)
you may have to run "make clean" or "make clobber" after adding these.
