I've unlocked bootloader and installed a couple of ROMS (OmniRom, Paranoid Android) with TWRP. When reverting back to stock, and relocking bootloader, the camera has stopped working. When I open the camera app, the image shows but when I click the shutter button, all screen buttons disappear, and the picture is not taken. The front camera only takes dark green rectangles as pictures.
I've tried flashing stock marshmallow with flashtool (and updating from there), flashing 7.1.1 directly, using Xperia Companion to repair, resetting to factory, again unlocking and installing other ROMs... To no avail.
Please note that the camera works in OmniRom, only with reduced quality.
Thanks for all help.

My camera can't focus, its like its stuck in micro, i think this started after kitkat. Had root before kitkat after i installed it. I tried factory reset any other suggestions. I don't want to downgrade to 4.3 to check. And is this because the software or hardware. Front camera is ok.
Note 3 with latest update.
The square doesn't get green as much as I try
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?

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
I bought a ZenFone 2 Laser CN version, and in need for Google Play Store, I rooted my phone. Since then, the rear camera stopped working. The front camera is fine, but the rear camera shows only black screen, and the button to capture picture doesn't work.
Here are the steps I tried:
- Flash ROM to ZE601KL_CN_1.16.40.1338, rooted it with a pre-root system.img via adb
- Installed Google services - Google services worked - And this is where the Rear Camera stopped working.
So I thought, maybe if I install a custom ROM, the camera may start working again, so I tried:
- unlock Bootloader
- Installed TWRP - twrp-3.0.2-5-Z00T
- Installed various version of CM and RR:
RR 5.6.7; RR 5.6.8; RR 5.6.9; RR 5.7.0; RR5.8.0
CM 13.0 20161220; CM 14.1 20161225
P.S. when I install RR 5.6.7, 5.6.8, 5.6.9, & 5.7.0, the phone will auto restart at welcome screen, only with RR 5.8.0, the phone is stable, both CM versions was stable
All with the same camera issue,
Then, I decided to flash it back to stock CN to see if it will solve the camera problem,
So I flahsed my phone to:
CN_V1.16.40.1338 ，
CN_V1.15.40.825
And now its CN_1.14.40.654
Still, nothing worked to fix the rear camera black screen issue.
The original ROM installed on my phone was: UL-Z00T-CN-1.16.40.1715-user
I tried to flash CN to WW, but it will not convert, so I am stuck with stock CN rom.
I'm looking for another possible solution.
Thanks if you can help.
Hi people:
I bought a Xperia X Compact 2 weeks ago. It seems to be a "journalist and commercial" terminal, as it came with version 6.0.1 of Android and did not allow updates via OTA.
I've used FlashTool to put another version of Firmware, the 7.1.1, and everything looks perfect, until I'm going to make a photo.
In the screen is observed to make the photo and I see the "picture" to take, but the touch button of the screen is not working. From that moment, the mobile starts to spend a lot of battery and the photo is not done. If you force the camera to front, a photo comes out completely in green.
I've put ROM 6.0.1 (Journalist and Commercial) back in, but the camera no longer works.
I have not done root.
EDITED:
Sorry. I lost DRM and the problem solved when I install patched Kernel. Problem is solved and I have 7.1.1 "with" DRM.
Thank you for your help
I have the same problem now , anyone know how to repair it
I might be having exactly the same problem. How did you get (and install) the patched kernel?
Thanks.
Hello, My phone's (main)camera is not being registered by the stock camera app , neither by Gcam. But it shows up in apps like instagram and snapchat and works just fine, no crashes or such. I tried resetting my phone through settings and the ****ty bootloader you get with a locked H870DS (un rootable) model and it didn't seem to work.
What I am thinking is, there's something wrong with the camera ID allocations of the camera but still confused as to why even after resetting, it won't work. Any way that I can erase the system and other partitions and do a fresh stock os installation? UGH it was so easy with root. Lg made a great device ****ty by locking it down for me.
Update: So I forgot to add how I came to the conclusion of camera ID being allocated wrongly. When I try to open the stock camera app by long pressing and selecting 'Selfie cam' , it opens up the wide angle rear camera. Either the front cam is done for or my device is.
So everyone's in quarintine but no one wants to help?
Hey,
today i tried to recreate your problem, and i got your problem.
Problem came when i flashed Pixel Experience Android 10 ROM against branded stock Android 9 (branded by Polish Play).
How to solve it? After many trial and errors, problem dissapeared when i flashed stock Android 8 (branded by Polish Play in my case), and did FOTA update.
I hope i helped.
