I recently flashed PAC ROM and I love it, but the camera won't work. The front camera works absolutely fine, but the back camera won't work when I try to open the stock camera app. I've tried replacing the Slim_ISP's and changing permissions, didn't work. I tried installing a CameraFiles-signed.zip, didn't work. Anything else I can try? I'm on an S3 SPH-L710
I got the same problem.
As I know, there is no solution yet, but you can install the following app to restart the camera itself instead of reboot your phone

Check with your device specific threads or with your device maintainer.

Flash the ROM again to fix your WiFi. While the ROM may help, I believe your camera problem is a hardware issue. You'll have to replace the camera module.

ok i just updated 5.0.1 . and how to flash rom via odin?
Flashing a custom ROM won't help fix your WiFi. You need to flash a stock ROM through Odin, and there are threads in the S4 forums which explain how to flash a ROM. Please use the search engine to find it.
Same Problem...
Just noticed this problem 3-4 days ago. I've done a factory reset and also tested a known working rear camera in my phone - I still get an updating firmware message or can't connect to camera message when I open the camera app. Also, the flashlight won't work and disappears from the pull-down menu in Lollipop. I'm unrooted on an I9505G (GPE S4) running 5.0. Not having any other issues with the phone and have tried re-seating the rear camera on the pins over a dozen times. Cleared cache /data from the camera app, uninstalled upadates, etc. I'm stuck. My best guess is either the board, or software related and I haven't figured it out.
With the OP, once firmware had been ruled out as a problem, the only thing remaining would be a motherboard issue. He had already replaced his camera module.
i just want my camera to work no matter wifi work or not. i m stock lollipop
so kindly suggest me something for camera. btw today i will try to flash ro
Take your S4 in for service. If you've updated the ROM and still do not have a working camera, you have a problem with the motherboard, not the camera module.
Hey there,
yesterday I flashed my L Fino (290N) with this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/d290n/development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-lg-l-fino-t3477180.
Everything went fine and the phone works great, except the camera. Tried the stock one of this Rom and several other camera apps like Open Camera and so on. But they all have something in common: There are dark shadows on the pictures. At the exact same spots with all the apps I tried. First thing was to check the lens and I cleaned it, but that was not the problem. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
I wanted to post in the specific threads, but there was a message telling me that newbies arent allowed to post there.
Must be a hardware problem. Did that happen after the latest update?? (11-11)?
Install this through your recovery:

Hi all, my Lenovo K920 Vibe Z2 with CM13 was working very fine but 2 days ago stopped work rear camera. I open stock camera but start with front camera only. There isn't the rotation camera to start the rear one. I try others app but same problem or doesn't start. In internal storage i have complete zip rom file (the same) so i can overwrite rom with non loss data but the same problem. There is apk stock file to re-install ? I have important sms data so i don't want to format it ... I already have cleared cache from twrp recovery. Rear flash doesn't work too ! In cyanogen rom widget disappear and if i installa new ak torch it works only with (display torch and not with rear hardware). Hardware is not broken beacause i had another dismount telephone and i attached a new camera hardware and it has the same problems. I don't find news kingsdom row rom's after cm-13.0-20160910-nightly.zip . If i'll try to upgrade to cm14 ? but i need a semi stable rom... this was working perfect !
