Hopefully this works, and hopefully I'm not stepping on any toes by posting it. But it seems ziggy has found the problem in an expired libOlaEngine.so file, and posted a fix on the Synergy google code svn, specifically r197. I don't have the issue so I haven't tested it. I'll update the post title once I have some confirmations.

http://code.google.com/p/synergy-thunderbolt/source/list

Some people have been asking for installation instructions:

1) Download the file
- Go to http://bit.ly/p5DyQJ (easier to enter on your phone)
- Click r197
- Click the file name (under 'Affected files')
- Click 'View raw file', save it to your SDCARD

2a) Using RootExplorer
- Copy the new file from your SDCARD
- Mount /system as read/write
- Go to /system/lib and paste the file, overwriting the old one
- Press and hold on the file and select Permissions
- Set: Owner - read/write, Group - read, Others - read, click OK
- Press and hold again, select Change owner
- Set both to '0 - root'

2b) Using ADB

Code:

<br />
# busybox mount -o remount,rw /system<br />
# cp /sdcard/libOlaEngine.so /system/lib/<br />
# chown 0:0 /system/lib/libOlaEngine.so<br />
# chmod 0644 /system/lib/libOlaEngine.so<br />

3) Reboot

Can someone explain what was wrong with Gtalk before? I've been video chatting with Gtalk on Sense and CM7 Roms for the past two months now.

Gtalk works now, but my front facing camera is upsidedown.

Yes we all have been for quite a while on GB, the issue came about last night.

That could be the issue. I remember Imo's 3.5 kernel was doing this with GB as well. My stock HTC kernel is normal with the ffc.

this fix doesn't work for me. I know I didn't everything 100%, not my first rodeo. Tried on 2 Bolts. First on IMO 3.6Lean, 802 radio, Bamf Uber PR3. Second on Bamf Uber PR3, stock kernel, and MR2. Talk works, but FFC is 90 degrees counter clockwise.

I was under the impression the upside down FFC was kernel related, and exists outside the recent GTalk/Camera problem and fix.

Is the change owner necessary? My root explorer I use doesn't have that feature.

what i dont understand,is that file a phone file or a rom file? i was under the impression that after changing the file it would be bussiness as usual but it seems everytime i change roms {sense gingerbread)i have to apply the fix again. however aosp roms work perfectly. so i guess the phone is infected with the file not the rom or no? And why is it not happening to everybody? This issue crazy as it sounds showed up right after i formated the
system upon restore of gingeritisv1.3
Where did this happen?when when i installed the gingerbread leak? does that write a bad file to the phone somehow? If anyone can shed some light id really appreciate it
Thanks again
