I need help from you TyTn professionals
I got a HTC TyTn with the Vodafone Portuguese Rom (Rom:1.18.260.2, Radio:1.16.00.00, Extended Rom:1.18.260.105)
I tried to make a video call but I was unsuccessful (on the top of the phone there is an U meaning it is a 3G covered area) I could not hear or see the other person neither my video fee
I download coolcamera and webcamera+ trial and was unsuccessful in activating the front camera (black screen only)...
could this be a ROM problem???? or am I doing something wrong????
thanks in advanced...
Yes
there might be some problem in your ROM definitly..
I suggest upgrade your ROM.
Front camera issue
I have the same problem with my front camera...just installed the newest WebCamera Plus, main camera and screen sharing work excellent! I still have an problem with the front camera, when the source is switched to front, it just sits and spins.
I contacted HTC and they say the only way to test it is to video call in 3G.
I did find the link to the video calling cabs and installed them after upgrading to WMXL 2.01. (the camera didn't work with WM5 either).
I'm in Chicago this weekend, unfortunately I don't know anyone I can call to test this with. (hint hint, wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
I read through all the posts and WIKI and didn't see this problem resolved.
Suggestions are very welcome!
hardware problem
I also have the problem that the front camera on my tytn doesn't work.
I'v tested it with different kind of roms (not the xda live version though) but it never worked.
I guess it's a hardware problem.
A couple of weeks ago I did send it to htc repair center, but unfortunately they did not fix it. I didn't send it in again, because I dont want to loose my tytn that long (last time it took nearly 2 months before I got it back) and I really do not use video calling that much.
Ouch!
Well if I had to send mine in, I would have to get another one first!
I have flashed both Cingular and HTC ROMS (5 times) to see if that was an issue, buy no avail. There is no 3G where I live but I really want it to work...oh well, could be worse.
Cam
Mine too -
also not working showing only black screen in phone mode
-> camera apps are saying not able to initialize !!
Rom problem -> because initialisation error or hardware prob?
Who can help!
PS: Working on Black 3.0.1
I've had the exact same problem!!
tried many ROM versions and no solution...
I have the same prob.
Anyone can help me. i tried the coolcamera and it is black also.. any advise
Front Camera not working!!! In US?
I am not sure that the video calling feature is supported yet in the US... did anyone contact your provider... As far as I know, if you are not in a 3G area, videocalling won't work... And you still need for that feature to be supported by your wireless carrier...
Just my two cents... If you do get it to work, PM me and we can use it together... Since AT&T isn't offering it yet, I will be happy when they do...
I don't think it is a hardware error, cause there are a lot of users having the same problem.
so i will add my Herm300 currently working on LVSW and originally from Tmobile UK to the list of same front camera problem herm's
tried couple of roms and all the time same black screen :/
anybody any clue ?
I also can't use the main camera in Video Call
any body know how to use the main camera in Video Call,, i press the toggle since i was in the call.. but it also black ... but when i go out of the call and go to camera it give me black. but if i close it and open it again it work fine....

my working front webcam plus
my webcam version is: 1.04
http://www.ateksoft.com
Webcam doesnt work - is no help!
Webcam worked also for the front camera before this black phenemon happend to me!
Now nothing is working - the fault has begun with wired picture lines and rows (back camera) - ended up with none working front camera - and with a back camera which have to be opened twice (first time starting also black) before working.
Help is really needed ! Are there any Initialisation Files or sth. like that for testing purposes to get rid of this.....
Thanx

I have a xda II that gives the error, error 36001.100.2 when I start the camera app, Also the sound has gone. I can hear a hiss but no sound, so the speaker is working.
I have hard reset the xda no change. I am about to reinstall the rom. (wating on a new usb cable!)
Rom - 1.60.00wwe
Radio - 1.08.00
I did find one link that suggested taping the phone on the table!, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7880&highlight=camera+36001) and yes I did try this... but still no luck, I would love to have a better understanding what the problem may be. I have dismantled the unit to check the spk connections which are fine.
Thanks for looking over this request for help.
Regards.

upgrade the camera module
I have reloaded the rom, still no good, however. I then removed the camera, module, I noticed some dark marks on 2 contacts.
Once I put the phone back together, the sound now works. So my guess is some water has shorted the camera out.
So my question now is, can I put a different camera from a newer phone in this one?
Hope to hear back some day?
Regards,
Troy
i doubt it they need to be compatible to work
because the protocol they communicate with need to be the same
Thanks for that Rudegar, I kind of wondered.
Do you have any idea if you can still get this kind of part still?
And if so where?
Thanks again for your comments.
sorry i know nothing of spareparts

Try to disable all programs, and try it again. Had these problems b4 and noticed some aftermarkets program crash with my XDA2 camera feature.
Well I just got my JasJar and when I press the camera the app comes up and then nothing but a black screen. Is there any software update out there? The camera that is on the screen works but not the one on the back.

I am having the samem problem. Is there anything I can download to correct this?
Nothing in the way of the screen.
I have not found a solution to the camera problem. There is nothing in the way of the lens. I have not taken the phone apart to see if maybe a cable is unplugged or such. I really do not think it would be that simple anyway. Once I buy my next phone I will try it out but for now I just wait to see if a good ROM might fix the problem.
In my jasjar cam goes almost fine, but only with 640x480. If configure largest not take pics :evil:
Hi, All I have been sent a replacement handset due to Vodafone upgrade not working correctly.

rom v 1.30.93 wwe
rom date 02/27/06
radio v 1.09.00
protocol v 42.42.p8
extrom v 1.30.194
Someone else had a similar problem a while back with their phone. The safety plastic film on the camera lens on the inside hadnt been removed when the phone was built.
Ths might be the same issue.
same problem with mine but i think it's dead pixels. definitely no film on mine.
You can send the device to HTC Europe who will estimate a repair for you.
Am planning to that with mine - as I have about 10-15 dead pixels with the camera, and i dont like the way the stylus falls out all the time (i dont want to put selotape round it), and i dont like the screen wobble!!!

If it's under warranty have it checked/repaired. It may be faulty or the connector may be loose. The danger in replacing the camera yourself is that it may not be the camera but a circuit board fault. If you do not have a warranty and are technically minded I can give a link for changing out or checking connection of the front camera.
Mike
thanks Mike; can I have that link please? where can I buy a new cam?
many thanks

I have the same problem on my HTC TyTN. Videocalls don't seem to be working anymore (they used to). I've never updated the ROM.
What's odd is that I can't use any of the 2 cameras for videocalls eventhough the main camera works when it comes to taking pictures or making videos.
(I haven't tested the sensor camera since there is no possibility to use it outside of videocalls).
I would think my problem was software related.....
Any idea to fix this?

So far as I'm aware you can only use front cam for video calls. Why you can't make video calls anymore could be troublesome to track down. I suppose a hard reset would be going too far?? (got any full backups? - should have and then these issues are easily solved)
It sounds like the main camera is working normally. The front camera can be used as a regular camera or video recorder and even a web cam. There are a few applications available from Ateksoft that can get these things working for you. The software is not free although they may still have trial versions available:
Coolcamera: http://www.ateksoft.com/
This will also let you know if there are problems with the front camera.
Mike
Thanks for the info!
I've just installed Webcamera trial version. It works with the main camera, however if I choose the front camera, nothings happens (the application seems to not be able to intialize the front camera as it will hang undefinitely...)
I guess my front camera isn't working properly... That sucks as I can't imagine being without my HTC TyTN if I was to send it for repairs (hopefully I don't make that many videocalls).

Mmm.. that's a pity. paersonally I never make video calls but I would be annoyed if I thought it would not work if and when I choose to. Have you tried a hard reset - I know that can be a big hassle if you don't keep full backups but still it would confirm (more or less!) whether it's a hardware fault or not.
Mike
like i sow in other topic this is common problem for many users (within me) , i expect it to be something else than hardware problem ...
same problem here!
Any solutions?
The camera worked until yesterday. I flashed with wm6.1 and the problem remains. Here is a picture:

Hard to tell if that's a hardware or software problem. Try:
hard reset
flash another ROM
and finally if all that fails, I think it possible that the camera push in connector may be loose. Not a difficult fix.
Mike
Looks to me that the camera driver included in the ROM isn't fully compatible with the hardware. I'd try another ROM or go back to an older one that you know works.
Of course, I'm no expert.
I solved the problem. While the camera is running i removed the battery for 20-30 sec. Obviously it is software bug.
