So when I first installed it both cameras worked, and I could switch between. I perhaps recall an update, and now switching to the rear camera just results in a black screen.
Anybody else?
I found the back camera only works after I have gone full screen,
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 moto g4 plus dropped in water. I dried it completly and it works flawlessly next day rear camera stopped working . I have have tried everything. Hard reset ..New applications.. custom Roms... Open board clean it all and reinstall camera hardware component but all failed. NOW I want to know is there any way to set front camera as my default back camera. It works some time by luck but don't focus. Because flash and camera works simultaneously I can't turn my flash on. When I use a third party application to turn my flash on. It just turns on for a second then again turned off. I know everything else is just working fine. So my Question is there any method to disable my back camera and set my front camera as default so that I can use flash, WhatsApp Web.. etc. I have my phone rooted on Naugat 7.1. Please also suggest hardware solution to fix my damaged camera. Thanks.
Anyone else having issues getting Camera unavailable? I can use third party camera apps and access both rear cameras.
But if I use the stock one and switch to the rear camera I get "Camera Error" Camera Unavailable.
I also had that today for the stock video but trying a second time it worked.
Yea mine just keeps doing it over and over, OpenCamera runs both cameras just fine, but doesn't see the front camera lol, front camera works fine and non-wide rear works fine on stock app.
I tried to run a full KDZ reset, but it doesn't let me refurbish, only upgrade, so if there is something wrong with the files in there, I fear they may not have been fixed.
Have you tried uninstalling OpenCamera and see if it goes away? I had this happen on an older phone, after a reboot it would work, come to find out, another app was holding the camera open
Yea I've tried using a fully reset phone, after digging more it looks like if the camera is in "Selfie Mode" the rear cameras work, but it's like if the selfie camera is no longer being detected by anything.
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?
