Root Camera stopped working. Still pictures ok, wont record video

OK you have the apk and the odex right? Delete the two useless original APK/ODEX (Make sure system is mounted r/w) and move the two new camera apk /odex to system/app. Hold, Permissions. All Read. and Check Only Owner for Write. Uncheck the other ones that i didnt mention. Now Press OK, and just in case, hold camera apk/odex and scroll down to Change Owner to root/root. Do that for both camera apk/odexes.
then mount system r/o. Reboot. If that doesn't work.. well good luck trying to ask someone else, because most of the things i mentioned ITT are most of the things i'd try to do.

Im not sure if this will do the trick for everyone,but i did it for the hell of it and it fixed the issue on my android.my camera would not record,i kept getting a "can not record during a call" wich ofcourse i wasn't on a call. So after reading forums and looking for solutions i noticed no one had a clue how to fix this.well enough rambling,open your apps from the settings,find the camera app,click it to open the settings and click "CLEAR CACHE" NOT CLEAR DATA! "CLEAR CACHE " and close the settings.try to record now! Worked on my android,good luck to you all.
