Camera broke
- Thread starter bmali22

That patch ONLY updated Focused to work with the 2.3.340 kernel, it was NEVER meant to update your phone to 2.3.340 (Focused, nor that patch will touch your kernel/bootloader/baseband/etc.)
The way to verify you are properly on 2.3.340, is by checking kernel version.
If you go to about phone, and it says you have any kernel other than
2.6.32.9-g55626e1
Then you are NOT on 2.3.340.....
Ya, I would wipe cache/data, and then try reloading the ROM again... (in case mod/theme/??? something is causing it)...
If you open z4, it should have the option to unroot.
Removing root is basically just deleting 3 files.. and won't in any way affect your issue though):
/system/bin/su (or /system/xbin/su)
/system/xbin/busybox
/system/app/Superuser.apk
....
Before unrooting, make sure you try to wipe cache/data for the camera app:
Menu> Settings> Applications> Manage Applications> all tab> camera
force stop, clear cache, clear data...
Any luck?
in Terminal:
$ su
# rm /system/app/Superuser.apk
# rm /system/bin/su
# rm /system/xbin/su
# rm /system/xbin/busybox
Should do it (don't type the $ or #, just put those there as example as prompts.
Again, I can tell you that removing root will most certainly NOT do anything to correct this problem. The damage is done. At this point, the only thing removing those files will do, is make it harder to fix the problem if the solution were to require root.
So.. what is it exactly that you'd like to accomplish by removing root?
Yea, I figured I didn't read something and jumped the gun when it wasn't working. At first read, I did think it was updating everything to .340. I figured if I misread it, there might be some others too. In the end, wasn't a big deal to get back on track with the SBF and take the OTA update.
Thanks for the clarification.

I'm 99% sure that what you have is a software issue, and can confirm that by .sbf'ing. With the thread above, and maybe an hour of time, you would know for sure... Just sayin'...
If you decide to give it a go, and need some help, send me a PM.

I Installed 1.9.5 Stock and had no issues...until all of the sudden my camera will turn on but when a picture is taken only a black screen is shown...Did I miss a fix for this in a forum some where? I did wipe cache and data and tried to reinstall but no matter what I try the camera will not work
I fixed it by going here http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x-rooted-help/112152-maderstcok-ota-2-3-340-update-zip.html and requesting the zip, installing it which returned me completely to stock. Then re-rooted and installed Rubix 1.9.5 and everything works great.

bmaili, this isn't directed specifically at you.
Guys, every time someone jacks up their phone and sends it back to Moto/VZW it's just one more justification for why they lock these things to begin with.
We take risks going custom and we need to accept those and take responsibility when we break something. It's not VZW's fault so it's not fair for them to pay for it.
I know I personally have bricked several times but it every case it was completely fixable. Just takes some time and research to get there. The community is more than willing to help at least in my experience. I have learned a lot just in the last 4 months from this forum and it's members.
Just an observation.
