Hey guys,
Have got a problem with the rear camera.
When I open the camera app I get a media center failed camera needs to restart.
If I switch to front camera have no issues.
I have wiped data and factory reset but no joy.
What else could I do?
Regards Richard

The only things you can do are:
- wipe data of the camera app in system/apps/all apps
- Data/factory reset
- Flash your rom with Odin and data factory reset.
If that doesn`t work its probably a hardware failure.
Thanks dude
you're awesome.....
you sabe from buying another s4. i just did the step 2 and worked perfectly!
could you explain me what exactly happened.
thanks man you're Gods will.....
Weird issue. I was comparing my STOCK (2.3.4) MyTouch 4g phone settings, hardware, etc, (settings -> about phone -> hardware information) to another exact phone (my family has 4 of them) and I noticed that my phone hardware did NOT list the front facing camera. The Main Camera is shown with 5m.
I then fired up the camera app. The Rear Facing Camera works fine. When I press the icon to change to the Front Facing Camera, the camera app closes and I end up back at the main home screen.
I tried going to setup -> applications -> running -> all -> camera and clearing the data and resetting the phone. The FFC still does not show up in the hardware list and does not work in the camera app.
Any ideas? Would a factory reset fix this?
Thanks!
Any ideas as to why the front facing camera does not show up in the firmware list?
Is there something that I need to do to 'activate' it?
Would a factory reset help?
Thoughts?

If it crashes when you try to access the ffc, try a reset.
If that doesnt work you could try a custom rom.
If that doesnt work then its hardware related. Maybe the front camera isnt present, or disconnected due to the phone falling down.
hey guys, having the some camera issue, so Skype works (front camera) , If I launch straight into it after a boot., can't switch to the back camera
I tried factory reset, then I unlocked the BL and put on CM12 , the camera app would open and just hang there , when try to open again it would have camera cannot connect.
Run hardware info from Play Store, it sees both camera fine, this is just the strangest error...
Hi all,
I've dropped my Nexus 4 into water for a second, and few months later it still works fine - except the rear camera. It flickers, randomly chrashes and gets crazy. Some times I manage to take several photos before it goes nuts. Front camera works fine!
I tried flashing clean rom etc. - problem persists, obviously it's not sw issue.
So I ordered replacement module. I installed it immediately and now my camera just force closes. There is no way to open camera app. I tried reinstaling camera app, clean flash etc., everything I could do from software side.
My old camera module works like before so I reverted the change.
Does anyone have experience with changing camera module? Any advice? Broken camera maybe?
My father in law has a Moto G7 and the rear facing camera has suddenly stopped working along with the torch. It comes up with a message "Rear camera unavailable - the rear camera hardware isn't working. Switch to selfie camera. Tap help for further assistance. Error code 01400001". I have tried resetting the camera app and clearing the cache / data but it is still not working. I have then tried installing a 3rd party camera app to rule out hardware failure called Open Camera and the rear camera works fine with this, however this does not have a flash option and the factory torch app on the phone is still not working and greyed out. Any suggestions please?
