I have an XT1644. I rooted it and installed Xposed about a week ago. Out of nowhere, today the camera no longer works. I have not installed any new apps or done anything else to the phone. When I open up the camera, the image is all black and the onscreen buttons are not responsive. I have to wait a bit and then it says "camera error camera must be restarted". I have rebooted into safemode and factory reset and the problem persists. Anybody have any idea whats going on?

I flashed stock and that fixed it, but then I again rooted and the problem returned. If I boot into "factory mode" the camera works. On safe mode it doesn't, so I'm guessing it's not a hardware problem.
i had this problem yesterday.
Rooted no problems, Installed Xposed stable version, and then out of the blue after 1 day my camera wasn't working.
Even after i disabled the modules it still was not working.
I had to restore a backup i made the night before....

I fixed it by flashing the newest stock firmware. The old stock firmware was not only messing up the camera, but other things as well. Ever since I did that, I've had 0 problems. Rooted and Xposed have been working just fine for weeks. Give it a shot.
roygbiv859, where do you get the "latest firmware" and how to flash it?
I am hitting this problem and my phone says software is already up to date. Same thing as you guys -- camera and flashlight only work in factory mode.
I have Xposed and root as well, but I remember things used to be working all together.
I noticed that in "factory mode" cellular network does not work, and battery never charges, otherwise I do not really mind running in that mode.
I saw a version number "MPJ24.139-48" at bottom of status page, is that the firmware number? Looks like I am already on the latest.

Had this phone for about 1 week now. Everything been fine until today. I tried to take a few pictures, but I couldn't. Received an a pop up with "Cannot connect to camera" I'm not sure what's causing this issue, I cleared the data/cache on it and still occurs. Is there any solution to this issue?
Thank you.
I have exactly the same situation.. But it's weird - ported LGCamera works without errors, other apps (market or aosp based) throw error. Sometime clear app data help, but only sometimes..
It could be hardware problem?
I've had this happen when I was on an older CM11 nightly.I did have to preform a clean install to fix the problem.

18/03? It didn't helped.. I was testing old and newest ROMs - same situation I think it could be some hardware problem - currently I have version from Singapore build at 02/2014
EDIT#1
Weird.. I will go back to stock - test, then install custom ROM.. Something go wrong - when I'm using ported LGCamera.apk in CM/Slim/PA it's working, other camera apps - don't..
I guess I found out the issue of why it was being caused. I also have a Nexus 5 and both had the APP Flashlight by Go Launcher. Seems to me when I downloaded and used it couple of times it caused my camera not to work on both phone. Uninstalled it and now it's working fine with now issues. I'm not sure if you guys also have a flashlight app, but maybe you can give it a try.
I got a replacement g2 from my insuarance and from the box mine done the same thing i tried every app i could find one day i flashed a diffrent rom and was bored. Clicked on my cam and it worked went back to my stock backup for my updatez and it wouldnt connect found out its was a software isse broken software from the factory i put a new stock rooted rom on and good as new. Mine was down. For about a month whrn i notticex what was wrong i thouvht i had a hardware failure but it wasnt there is always a chance of a bad cam but also some app like certain flashlights do take over your hardware if uve rooted and the phone is new goback stock unroot and have swapped
I'm on stock KK right now = 0 problems, so I think it's not hardware. LG camera and other apps always working fine.
Now I will go back to AOSP and test apps again

Hello,
Did you go back to aosp ? Is the camera ok now ?
Thanks
Here's a thought. After a new rom anybody feel there is a dial pad code to bridge the connection gap.
help, question

Same issue. Go flashlight solved thanks to this thread.
Having similar issue. Flashed a new bootstack and camera stopped working. Factory reset, fresh install tot, then kdz, then cloudy g3. Camera still force closes and other camera apps can't connect. I can take one picture after a fresh install (which I did three times flashing from tot...).

Nothing worked. Just gave away the phone and bought an LG G3
Hello,
I got a little problem. From the time I've installed the newest xposed framework v71 a little problem appeared. Often I just turn on my screen, in 1 second it turns off. It happenes a few times. Sometimes helps restart, wiping cache etc, but early or later, it appears again. Double-tap for wake a phone wasn't function. Just for sure, first time cca three days before my phone fell down, mobile was in case, so nothing happened, but I just want to ask you, if there is something, what causes that and where is the right "error".
This is happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-kbaf1k-Gg
Edit: I tried reinstall xposed and problem is still here, so it wouldn't be about xposed, but what would be it? I didn't install something new, didn't uninstall something... In recovery this problem doesn't apppear.
Sorry for my english, I think it is not so good.
Anyone who knows please?
What rom are you using? What model of lg g2 you have? Tried a wipe with lg flashtool? Remember that this problem could be related to xposed
You have written those informations under my post as a signature... Stock, 32gb.
Interesting is, when I install xposed module "disable proximity sensor", everything is fine.
M facing really weird issue with Oneplus Two Camera.
1) Sometimes not frequently when I open camera app the screen is black and it crashes with an error stating "Camera unknown error".
At tht time if I use other camera apps i.e. Snapchat, Google camera ,etc..they show black screen too.
Even Flash doesn't work at tht time.
So I hve to restart to solve the problem.
2) When in a dark room or so, when I take picture with flash mode on...the camera screen goes blank and I hve to lock and unlock it to solve the problem. But if happens again when I take another shot.
Is there any solution ? Do I hve to worry ? Is it hardware or software problem and if its a software prob...will it damage my camera hardware or any other ?
I really love this phone ...so even minute errors bugs me
Do I need to replace? ...I don't want to spend my time replacing it coz I hve already replaced it ...I mean ..I bought it from Amazon India and due to a small dent on my OPT on the right upper corner I replaced it and it took me 15 days with lot of calling at Amazon ...so I don't want to do all tht again
Please help
I am on Oxygen OS 2.1.0
Rooted
Titanium restored from a backup of my previous phone I.e. Nexus 4 <--- is this causing the prob in any case?
Have you tried doing a factory reset? Did this happen on OxygenOS 2.0.1? Have you tried other camera applications (google camera) to see if the issue is software related? Do you have a custom recovery?

I am rooted
with custom recovery (TWRP)
Oxygen OS 2.1.0
Nope i didn't try factory reset
and yes when tht problem happens all camera using apps hve black screen after reboot everything works
I own that device too and I am not facing any such issues but here is a fix -
If you are rooted clean flashy the ROM
Non rooted -
Wipe cache partition from stock recivery
And most likely I think the problem is titanium backup of previous phone
DARK SIDE™

i just flashed exodus, stock kernel, opengapps, reistalled my titanium backup, and everything works, no camera issue. so i doubt it's a titanium problem, either... but sorry, no idea how to help
Even after factory reset
Not rooted phone. Did factory reset in recovery mode and tried third party camera apps also, still problem persist
This happens for my OPT too. Whenever I try to take a shot in the dark, it just froze. Until I lock and unlock it again. Weird!
I have met the issue 2 as well. When I take picture under dark environment, the screen will be dark and I have to unlock it again. I am using oxygen 2.1 stock camera app. So I think it should be software bug.
One plus 2 camera issue
I was also facing the same issue but now it is resolved.
Steps. Before clicking a pic in dark just maximize your brightnessto 100% and off the optimization of screen in display.then click a pic..the screen wont get dark..and tje picture will be clicked.i hope it will be resolved in future updates with low and automatic brightness too
Hi All
I have an issue with my S5 Plus (G901F) a few days ago I rooted, TWRP and installed the stable MM ROM from Tkkg1994 and have been happily using my phone. This morning while I was opening the Gmail app the device rebooted and when it came back up I noticed WiFi was not on. Pressing the quick menu WiFi button turns it green for a second before going back to disabled. Likewise going to into settings - WFi and using the slider does not work either, it just goes back to off.
So far, I have wiped ART/Dalvik, reflashed BL and Modem, factory reset. Wiped the whole device and redid everything including diffrerent ROM's on the same BL/Modem (CPE1) and have the same result.
Everything else works, just not WiFi, I should also add I have tried with and without the SD card and disabling/enabling other radios (GPS/BT) in different combos has not worked either.
Has anyone come across this and can they suggest next steps?
I'm currently downloading the stock ROM that came with my phone to see if that helps.
Cheers
Stock ROM did not help.
Did you find solution? I have recently started to have same issue with same device.

Probably not. The S5 seems to suffer a lot by such issues. I bought mine 3 months ago in a shop. It worked for about 2 months very well. Then all of the sudden it became hot in my pocket so i had to quickly remove the battery. After this the device suffered by ocessional reboots. Nothing helped. Even trying to reflash the stock firmware by trying several Pit´s.
Finally got a replacement as obviously either the RAM or the CPU got defective. The other phone lasted for one week as the wifi module got defective there. Nothing helped either. Now it´s my 3th S5. This weekend my flashlight and camera stopped working. Fortunally got this fixed by reflashing the stock firmware.
Honestly I like the phone but it seems to be quite buggy. Never got such problems with my old S4 and am thinking about going back to the older device.
dude try flashing 4 files flash through odin
Hi, I've been trying to fix my camera for a week by now, everytime I open it, tells me it's busy by another app. I disabled it, removed updates, cleared cache, remains the same.
I reflashed the stock rom once again and still remain the same. In the last time I even updated it to Nougat but remains still the same. Tried safemode, same happens.
One of the other apps I installed to try it out, returned me a different error however, saying he couldnt get the camera, because the ID of that camera didnt existed (I don't remember by memory the exact words)
Did anyone experienced this and could overcome it ?
