Guys,
i had earlier flashed cm 7.2 to my defy plus with the battery fix and the camera fix....everything was working fine
However, a few days back, i got it back to the stock 2.3.6 via custom recovery....everything works normally, however, the camera is not working
It starts up and shows a blank screen with all the options....as if the camera were on, and someone had switched off just the lens....
When i click, the picture is taken and i can see the image, however, i cannot see the viewfinder view.....
Please help me....cheers

Which phone MB526 or MB525??
If it is MB525 then which color lens (Green or Red)?
However, in both the cases you may search the thread from which you have downloaded the ROM; that thread may have Camera fix for your phone.

Maybe, it helps.

Not sure if what you are facing is the same thing...

Rather the lack of camera or video after the update. Just opens then closes really fast. I suppose a reset of some kind is next. Anyone else have / had this issue?
Cheers
can someone tell me why when you take self photos the screen looks smaller than before

this is because your not taking a picture that supports high resolution. it is only a vga camera that is 1.3 megapixel
when you look at the screen before you snap a self picture its smaller looking than the 2.1 rom
I ran into this issue after updating my phone to the HTC FroYo beta. I rebooted my phone and it began working again. I've have not had an issue since then.
My GF's phone was updated to final HTC FroYo 2.2 and ran into the same problem as well. A Reboot also fixed it.
I ran into this issue right after updating to the 2.2 beta. I found that it was the LED Light app that was "breaking" the camera. Uninstalled the app, soft reset, good to go.
Camera Resolution
My Camera dropped to 3m anyone have that problem?
I did a soft reset and voila everything is fine now. I also unistalled the LED app I was using then reinstalled it. No issues so far.
Cheers
what LED app are you using, I am also having this issue. It was working fine, then i rebooted, and now it just closes right away when opened, will be deleting all my LED apps for now.
Yep the LED Light widget (the one that looks like the sense widget) killed that and its working again. hopefully the author of the app can fix this. as thats a useful little widget.
yep, its the LED Light, the one that looks like a sense widget on/off switch.. uninstalled it and camera works fine, i didnt even have to reboot
Hi!
i've played so far with three custom roms: PRIMEE_p9_davids_mod, Virtuous_Thrive_v.1.0.1 and Lightspeed_1.0.1. each has its merits, but my biggest problem (so far) is that the camera app does not work properly with any of the non-acer based roms: i get a black screen with the back facing camera. the front camera works (so i can only take pictures of myself!). Lightspeed (based on stock acer) doesn't have this problem.
anybody else seen this? any suggestions?
thanks a lot
Same on HoneyVillian
i just put this ROM on my acer and now cannot take videos with the back camera. Front works fine like you said. Also it keeps saving video files to my SD when i am clearly not taking any if i try to open them nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I have black camera screen too ,, on rooted stock 3.2, it takes pics but i get no preview,, and cant focus..
It's all fun and games until someone loses a camera!
I'm currently on stock zvc rooted with twrp from autorec. I have been using Jishnu's 4k cam mod for a while now and its worked perfectly fine but all of a sudden my camera lost the ability to focus. It did this a couple days ago and I tried restoring camera from Jishnu's camupdate apk and then reinstalling and also installed xdabbeb's 4k cam and it wasn't working but after 15 mins or so I went back to the camera and it was working again. This time though I tried to do what I did before but it doesnt have any effect on it. I no longer have the stock camera files does anyone have them so I can try that out? A flashable zip would be even better if possible. Other then that does anyone have any idea what I could do besides tot'ing back which I'd rather avoid if possible?
Did you try another camera app to make sure it's not a hardware issue?
If I helped you, please thank me
got a stock non rooted d803 and camera just wont focus as well
takes nice close up pics but anything further than 2 inches and its out (even manual focusing doesnt work)
tried other camera apps and no joy, went as far as factory reset and nothing
LG and phone company tech advised bringing it in for replacement

Sorry for the late reply didn't notice I got two replies but I had tried google camera and another random camera before
and they both wouldn't focus at all. However my camera is working now I went and tot'd to stock 4.4.2 but the camera
wasn't working immediately after doing that it still wasn't working so I was afraid maybe the hardware was broken. But
after installing the 4k camera mod and doing some messing around with the camera and then leaving the phone alone
for a while with the camera app running in the background it works again. Its very weird I don't really understand it what
threw me off as well was after running titanium backup to restore apps/data the camera was still working so I started
setting stuff up. I noticed the xposed installer was not up to date so I went and updated it and then rebooted the phone.
After that I checked the camera and it wasn't focusing again at all. I figured xposed might be the culprit so I went and
uninstalled it then rebooted but it didn't have any effect the cam still wouldn't focus. So I reinstalled and enabled it and
did the installing 4k mod messing with camera and leaving it alone routine and after a while the camera is working
again. Very suspicious I'm at a loss but I went and did a nandroid backup while the camera was working so if anything
I can restore that and hopefully fix it.

Sorry for the late reply but my camera still isn't working properly. Whenever I open a camera app its all blurry and it won't
focus what I have to do everytime I need to take a picture of something is shake the phone around in different angles and
sometimes hit it near the camera region lol. I find that after giving it a good shake/hit it'll start focusing again. I don't know if
that means theres a problem with the OIS interfering in some way since the lens can move around and stuff so maybe shaking
it makes it focus correctly but its annoying.
I would go bring the phone in for repair/replacement if you're covered. I would do it myself but I plan on getting the G3 soon
anyway so don't really need to fix this one. Hope it works out for you though.
Hi,
Sometimes while taking a pic the stock camera would hang without even saving the pic to album.This generally happens when i open the camera from lockscreen. Another common error is "camera not available".
On encountering this , most ppl restart the phone. However, i have seen on all occasions, opening the multitasking pane and swiping the camera app away will fix this (atleast temporarily)
Hope this helps and u dont miss ur shots [emoji4]

I had this issue while on holidays... even clearing cache for Camera app did not fix it, then I restarted and discovered that fixed it.
It never froze to me and I use black Z1, C6903 and I have firends who have white Z1 and Z1 compact and their cameras freeze most of the times, but I use it or open it from anywhere and nothing.

I'm on stock phone 4.4.4 LB no Roms or moded stuff
I've noticed one thing - when I launch camera from lock screen and it freezes when I half-press camera button to focus, all you have to do is touch the icon with cameras (the one that allows you to switch to automatic/panorama/etc) and select Auto again. Camera works then with no issues.

@jontr : will try it out !!!
A minor update : the problem doesn't arise if i am in manual mode...i just switched from superior auto to manual mode after launching from lock screen....manual mode takes better pics in my opinion

can you tell me what rom are you using?
LB or UB?
i really wanna try using ur configuration
thanks in advance
last Nut's stock 4.4.4
LB
deodex
superuser mod (by xperia xposed)
..and the fix in the link
I installed 120fps e 4k mod too
I had the problem of the camera hang before to apply the fix
well unfortunately this fix did not work.
i have a xperia z1 c6906 LB.
i tested with ihackers ROM v5.1 the first day i was able to take like 300 pictures without any failure, next day after taking the 12th picture i get camera hang somehow i change between auto and manual and 'fix' for a moment so i decide reboot the cellphone, second day i take about 100 pictures only hang 2 times in auto. today i keep testing and when i taking the second pictures got camera hang u.u i tried to do the same trick changing from auto to manual but it only got worst i lost preview (black screen) from camera. :c.. i make a quick reboot but did not fix the camera preview so i did a full reboot and its working again...
i think i gonna get back to android 4.3 :/
it is really disappointed because both versions android 4.4.4 and 4.3 have bugs
maye its time to change phone and brand
remember, the reboot is required after you have installed the fix
The fix works fine for me. Thanks.
Guys I'll be now testing for a few days since I have this problem too.. I'm on UB, I have chocolatetrain mod installed (pretty nice but this issue hasn't been solved there too..), trinity kernel (dunno if that mathers hahah). I'll tell you more
Edit - ok totally not working here.. Camera still has its annoying problem
Thanx for ur excellent suggestions bros..but my phone is on stock rom and unrooted.....guess thrs nothing i can do abt it for completely getting rid of it

Hi
I'm on latest stock ROM
I have a problem with camera in my Note 4 N910F. When I do photo without flash - everything is ok and fine but sometimes when I use Auto or manual turn on flash phone just hangs with screen off. No reaction to power button longpressed - only battery remove helps.
It is happening on sd or internal memory selected as storage.
Sometimes I can take some photos with flash when suddenly it hangs on first, third, five... Of course troubled picture is unreadable.
I try to use some third party cameras from market but the effects are the same.
When flash is taking focus it is ok but whet it flashes for taking picture - it kills device.
I will try use some custom ROM but maybe somebody knows what is happening and how to fix it?
I already cleaned app data and cache.
