Okay so I'm trying to help my girlfriend flash CM11 on her Galaxy S3 i747 (US AT&T). Everything is just fine. I did not use the installer. I rooted, flashed TWRP (latest from the website), downloaded CM11 M12 from official download website and flashed it. Everything is working. Except for Skype. When it's a voice call, it's just fine. But as soon as she turns her camera on to start a video chat, it works for about five seconds, then Skype crashes. Here's the weird (and very irritating) part. This isn't limited to this ROM. I've tried CM11 M3 (yes. I went that low), I've tried AOKP (which got stuck in a bootloop at first boot, gave up), and Paranoid Android, LiquidSmooth, SlimKat. All from XDA, and the latest versions possible. They all have the exact same problem. Stock camera app works fine in all (except for a few times in which case a soft reboot fixed it.) I'm at a loss of ideas here. I've even tried a combination of running a different kernel. I tried running ParanoidAndroid with a Quantum 6 kernel. But still the exact same problem. Nothing I try seems to work.
I would go back to stock, but she likes iPhone emojis. So I wanna flash a 4.4.x+ ROM so I can change the emojis after rooting. Colored emojis aren't possible on Android 4.3 and below. And there is no official 4.4 ROM for this phone. What else should I try? Am I missing something?
Also, if I turn MY camera on, then her Skype shows my video stream just fine. Never crashes. It's only when she turns HER camera on the S3 that it starts to be stupid. All other apps work fine. We've been working on this for two weekends now.
I'm not new to flashing and rooting. Been doing it for a long time now with my phones and other people. But this is driving me nuts.
Bootloader and modem work fine. I flashed the bootloader to I747UCDMG2 and the modem to the same I747UCDMG2 before flashing CM11 for the first time. I don't wanna update the bootloader to I747UCUEMJB because Knox. (I had to deal with that on my phone, so no thank you.) Plus I don't think the bootloader has something to do with this, does it? If it's any help, I run an unofficial CM12 5.0.2 on a GT-i9500. I'll be grateful to anyone who can at least give me an idea of what Skype's deal is. :)
