hy all,
did any of you ever experience this problem with the camera?
I have an MDAII upgraded to: Rom 1.60.00WWE; radio 1.10.00; ext 1.60.50
Pressing the camera button the ppc freezes and gives me this error: "failed to initialize camera. please reset the hardware. 36001:100:2"
So I soft reset, Then press the button and the camera still doesnt' work (though it's not freezed). I have to soft reset once more to have the camera full function.
Is it a software or hardware problem?
Thanks in advance
had this very problem combined with the speaker not working at all and the headset not working either.
for me it seemed to be a faulty connection somewhere on the device, because when i performed some percussive maintenance on it (i gave it a firm tap on the side. Be careful though!!) it worked like a charm again, and has done for more then a week now.
Maybe you can send it back to your provider and have it replaced or repaired (as i probably will somewhere next week)
That's incredible :shock:
This morning I gave a soft tap :twisted: on the side and and the camera then worked without any problem, for the first time!
I guess we both must have some kind of masochist device 8)
I'm a bit puzzled, and I don't know wether to send the "baby" to get reapired, or not... If I do, it'll surely come back not before one mounth
Afterall, I don't use the camera so much...
I think I'll be trying the tapping exercise for a week, then decide.
thank you very much
My Camera Flash doesn't work. Can anyone help me?
what did you do on it lately?
reply
all i've don't was a software upgrade by t-mobile and a hard reset so far. camera operates fine with the exception if the flash. wen I press the icons it jux doesn't come on. is there something I'm suppse to do externally?
Hello well I just reset the phone and everything is working except the camera. I Tryed pressing the button on the side to activate it and going into it on programs and bolth of them had the same responce. the "camera name" pop'd up on the top left and the screen got brighter but nothing more. im not sure what to do to fix it this problem.
thx
Whose ROM are you using?
Regards,
Carty..
If hard reset does not work,try re flash your ROM. If that still does not work, send the device to the service centre for diagnosis.
I installed the WWE rom from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431738
Now when I enter camera mode, all I see is black. Once I take a picture, in the preview, it'll actually show what it took a picture of. So it works, but I can't see what I'm taking a picture of.
Any ideas?
Also, once its saved and I go to it to view it, it gives me that 'no application associated' error, but when I go programs and run the view manually, it works fine.
How do I re-associate it?
another problem
another problem that im having is that it will ask me for the pin when I turn on the phone but it will disappear and not come back
Well, fixed the camera one; didn't need to install the camera patch. Check qualities and looks like already patched.
Still stuck on the other two.
Can can't figure out how to get the music tab up now. Used to work, now it isn't working. Hm...
That's not typical behavior. Try downloading another copy of the ROM update and reflashing. Make sure there are no SD cards in your phone while flashing. For safe measure do a hard reset right after you flash. Let us know if you still have the problem after that.

Nope. Still black screen after soft reset.
Taking pictures is no problem and even the preview of the taken picture shows i 3 sec, and then black screen again.
I re-installed the ROM and everything worked fine again.
Installed the photo fix HTC released the camera was bugged again, so uninstalled that and it worked. So that solved that.
the picture viewer would stuff up when I installed the 3D drivers. I want to keep these, so how do I associate the picture viewer to the images I take?
Also, I can't get the music tab up. Was it excluded in this ROM?
Hi
all of a sudden my camera has vanished.
touchflo 3d shows the camera tab but the icon in the tab does not work.
the camera shortcut no longer exists in programs and is not an option to add to the start menu either.
it's gone.......
"Camera" is still in the windows file but nothing happens when i tap it.
anything that uses the camera just doesn't do anything when i tap the relevant "camera" button.
I am using the newest stock ROM from HTC and have just reflashed it to make sure that's OK.
It's just gone?!?!
help very much appreciated.
thanks
don
Hi donster22,
Please try the following:
Download and install Advanced Configuration Tool
Open the program after installing to your PDA, and try changing one of the camera settings Encode photos in portrait mode to no and hopefully this will enable your camera again.
Perform a Soft Reset and then press the camera button a few times and hope it works.
Have you tried a Hard Reset?
Regards.
thanks but no joy. tried the app etc but no change.
i have hard reset and reflashed the ROM but still no camera....
very frustrating. it was there yesterday but today nothing.
help.............?
i had that problem also
sometime it worked sometimes not, and even when it worked it didn't do well( no focus and errors)
after a while my screen stoped working (just like the camera)
they had to change the motherboard, atleast that was writen on the warranty
i think maybe u have the same problem
HTC UK Service seem to be great. Rang them about this yesterday and they are collecting the phone this morning.
Fingers crossed they can fix it!
Worth noting that the phone had also started turning itself off randomly and not able to turn back on until the battery had been removed for 30 minutes...?!
phone back. new motherboard, camera and front screen - was there anything else to change? very impressed with the htc service.
