[q] [request]camera not working - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i've been lurking here for quite a while, this website has been very, very useful, but now I encounter a problem I can't seem to solve.
I recently flashed CM9, and everything was working fine until I installed Snapchat... the camera doesn't work, it freezes the second I open the app. Reading, I found that snapchat doesnt enumerate flashes properly, and this issue probably has to do with something called "camera HAL".
A solution that I found was:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34891248&postcount=590
But the link is down, and i'm interested in a camera with no flash, since the e400 doesn't even have a flashlight, so, can anyone help me?

Camera issues

Hey,
I am currently running the 1.48 rom and the problem is sometimes when i wanna turn my HD2's camera on it says came couldn't be initialized (have to reboot to use it) the other problem is that some times the camera will not turn on the light the button gets grayed out for some reason. i HAVE NOT applied the came fix since it messed up the led light completely and not even 10 resets fixed it... when i last installed it.
Anyone has the same issue?
hi,
usealy the camera refuses to turn on the (flash)light when your battery is lower then xx%, i dont know the exact value but if you do a search here in the board you will find it.
for the crashes i cant help you out, but having a look into the various camera threads here may also be helpful.
regards mad
There are a few threads about the camera intitalisation already, and I believe I was the first to submit one. Anyway, I have recently found out the Opera 10 Beta strangely enough caused the issue. I havent experienced the problem since uninstalling it so....give it a try (assuming you installed Opera 10).

Camera issues after flashing ota leak?

I unrooted my phone, installed the OTA with 720p last night, then rerooted it. The camera worked fine for a while, but then all of a sudden it stopped working. It would come up with the camera screen for a second, but then go back to the Home screen. If I try using the Barcode Scanner app, it says "Sorry, the Android camera encountered a problem. You may need to restart the device." I've tried restarting it a few times, nothing happens.
Also, oddly enough Lamppu stopped working, but Incredilight still does.
Anyone else have this problem or know of a fix?
EDIT: I also installed the Hydra OC/UV kernel, I think the camera stopped working after I did this, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I did a nand restore and got it working again. Still dunno why it happened though.
Yep, looks like hydra needs to release a new kernel. I am experiencing the exact same issues after installing his kernel.

AOSP on LG G2 not working well with Snapchat

Hello guys,
I'm not sure if this is a well known problem or if it's just me, but it seems there is a problem with snapchat (the camera) when running AOSP-roms on the LG G2 (D802). I've encountered this problem using both PA and CM.
When using snapchat and pressing the "change camera"-button to use the rear camera, the app freezes and I have to force close it. Then, when I open Snapchat again it shows the error message "Unable to connect to camera". When trying to open the camera application it shows the same error message. A reboot seems to fix the problem, but it doesn't take long before I get the same error message.
Is there any solution to this? I'm a little tired of rebooting my device 20-30 times a day. There is no problem on stock firmware, but I really want to use AOSP
I have the same issue on the VS980 and so far havent found a solution and its driving me nuts. Im not real sure how the app itself works but ive wondered if installing a different camera like the lenovo super camera or something along those lines would make any sort of difference, or if its just the app itself. With some searching i read something about google and snapchat knowing of the issue and that it was suppose to be taken care of in one of the 4.4.x updates but it doesnt seem like it
Having the same problem, snapchat will tell me to reboot but I sometimes I can just open the camera app, let it settle and flip the camera back and forth a few times, and then snapchat will magically work again.. still very annoying as I use snapchat a lot

Notification lights not working after install cm13 build from mparus

Hi
I ask this question here, as I’m knew in the forum I can’t write it directly in the ROM post where would be more appropriate.
I have installed the in the phone the CM13.0 ROM built by mparus, I have used the cm-13.0-20161118-UNOFFICIAL-mparus-without_root-g760.zip build, the last one in this moment. The phone works correctly, I only had a pair of minor issues:
-phone app was not working, caused a reboot when trying to use it: it’s a vanilla cyanogenmod problem, it’s solved choosing the phone app as default for making calls
-camera app doesn’t detect the camera device: I have read that is a bug of the official camera app, can be solved installing another app as open camera
I have a serious problem for which I have not found information about. It’s with the notification lights, they are not working except for indicating the charging status of the device, not for mails, missed calls, etc. I tried all the possible combinations for this without luck. I have also tried third party app’s like light manager and they don’t work also, perhaps something is broken in the build but I’m not sure.
Any of you has experienced this problem with the mparus mod in the ascend g7? Can you give me any advice? I’m a bit frustrated about this
Thank you
Do a clean re-install of the ROM I'd say..
