I am trying face unlock and it says that it is being used by another app. When I go into stock camera, the front facing camera is not recognized. I have formatted my phone to no avail. I'm on OOS 9.0.5

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.
Hey everyone....today I had tried two ROMs based on nougat 7.1.1
1) Mokee 7.1.1 (20170217)
2)Resurrection Remix 7.1.1 Official
After I have clean installed both the ROMs and tested it one by one...with and without custom kernels(radioactive reborn kernel and andy kernel for 7.1)...I have encountered problem with camera...at first boot camera can be opened and photo can be clicked from both cameras...as soon as HDR mode is switched ...camera app crashes...sometime it says...media server died...sometimes says can't connect to camera etc..
Now I have tried every possible way to get rid of this problem like
1)I have tried reboot my phone
2)I have tried clearing cache and dalvik of camera
3)I have tried apps like camera restarter
but of no use
Here one thing should be noted that camera works fine in all mode in marshmallow ROM...I am using mokee 6.0.1 and camera works perfectly fine....apparently its not a hardware fault....plzz help me out
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.
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.
Hello. This is the only place where I think I can find ann answer to this bug.
The issue: all OnePlus 8 Pro cameras work normally with every single app, except the stock camera app. I can take photos and make videocalls, use instagram, whatsapp, etc. All cameras are working fine. Even face unlock, But the stock camera app opens in a black screen, then 3 seconds later, closes (and you can find it on the recent apps drawer.
What I did so far to debug this:
- Wiped the cache
- Wiped the cache and data for the camera app and the camera service
- Did a clean install (factory reset) on OOS 11
- Did a clean install (factory reset) rolling back to OOS 10
- Upgraded to a beta version on OOS 11.
- Did a clean install of OOS 11 using MSM Tools
- Updated the camera app to a beta version
- Updated the camera service to a beta version
All this with stock software.
Absolutely nothing that I do makes the stock camera app to work. I can assume that this is not a hardware issue, since all the cameras work on any app except the stock camera app. But if it's a software issue, why even wiping with msm tools didn't fix it? I really can't find an answer to this.
Has anyone ever faced this bug? I'm almost selling my oneplus 8 pro as defective since we don't have official oneplus support in brazil.
Thanks in advance for any tips!
If you've used msm to go back to stock then it must be a low level driver that's not working..
Haven't got a clue how that could be fixed though, i would reach out to OnePlus.
If you don't fancy that, the only other thing you could maybe try is one of the custom ROMs that now has the OOS camera baked into their ROM.
It's a long shot but perhaps that may work and may invoke a change that's inherited by the OOS system..
Sorry it's an odd one.
