Hey there,
I just installed the latest CM 12.1 Nightly release on my Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500 and the camera doesn't seem to work. It just pops up a message saying "Cannot connect to camera." and the app closes. I tried downloading other camera apps such as Cymera, Google Camera, etc. but it doesn't seem to help. I also tried the CM 12 Camera fix application over the PlayStore but that doesn't seem to help either. I tried using another rom by the name "Euphoria" for my phone and the camera seemed to be working fine there but with other major issues in the rom itself.
I'd appreciate any help on the topic.
Camera issues are a well-known problem with Cyanogenmod, due to incomplete driver support. Reboot your device to reenable the camera, and download an app like CameraMX that includes its own binaries to control the camera. Try not to use the stock camera.

Thank you for the reply.
I did try installing the 'CameraMX' and also 'Camera Ultimate 360' but both of them don't seem to work either. I don't get any camera error pop-ups and it is the only difference, I could witness from the stock camera app but, the camera is just a black screen in those apps. I guess I will have to stick with the nightly updates in hope for a camera fix.
EDIT : Rebooting my phone doesn't help either.
me 2 i installed android 7.1.2 and some while she stopped work and also the flash camera
Hello guys,
i've bought the p8lite from a few days and it was working great.
Suddendly the camera has stopped working. I keep getting the message "Impossibile avviare la fotocamera, verificare che non siano in esecuzione applicazioni esterne in background (come torcia elettrica). Chiudere le applicazioni in questione e riprovare.".
Translated is like "Unable to start camera, check that there aren't any external app in background (such as torch). Close those apps and try again"
I've not installed any app yet, nor I have rooted or flashed the phone so I really don't know what to do with it.
Help me please!
Thanks in advance to everyone.

*wipe cache/date partition from recovery: didnt work
*factory reset: didnt work

Hi,
I had to send the phone back and get it replaced cause it was a hardware problem.
Hope it helps
thanks! but send my phone to USA service is very expensive to me. I had bad luck because my phone has no more than a year.
i will keep trying to repair it.

Maybe flashing twrp and flashing B598/599 stock will help.
Also, when you open the camera app you hear a sound from the actual camera (the lens) ?
I had a similar issue. When I installed a new update etc. the phone was fine. However after switching Google Now Voice (I mean saying ,,Ok Google" from ANY screen) it didn't go well with other apps - in my case it was Camera. So switching Google Ok Voice off helped me. But I'm not really sure, whether it's a same case. Maybe some third party app is blocking something? Good Luck!
im embarrased because camera app works sometimes, i mean, usually works 1 day or less and then shows error msg.
Yesterday i restarted my phone (normal restart) and then started to work. So i do not lose hope

I tried to install Gcam on Mi A1 , but unfortunately the installation shows "app not installed"
the following are the steps i did. pls point out if i missed any.
1. unlocked bootloader
2.Root and installed Magisk without installing TWRP (used TWRP by booting )
3. downloaded and installed Gcam using Magisk (inside downloads)
-didnt showed any new gcam icon, also tried in the stock camera
The stock camera takes longer to start. (noticed every time).
So i tried to install Gcam apk by scrubber.
Installation shows (App not installed)
Even tried to enable camera2api using build prop and install gcam. No luck
Now the issue is the camera ( stock , and all other camera apps) taking longer to start and Gcam not installed.
any guess what went wrong ?
I hope Twrp was not the issue coz i didnt installed it.
will unrooting and relocking makes camera fast again
Search in Magisk the Module: MI A1 Camera Lag Fix Oreo.
And that's it. The problem it's with SELINUX.
Set selniux to permissive. There is a magisk module for it.

Nah, don't worry about it.
My stock camera freezes whenever i open it for the first time,i have to switch modes to get it working.
as long as the camera is in memory it works fine but the moment you clear it and open the app it happens again.
I am gcam installed and is having no such issue but i prefer the stock camera.
did factory reset issue persists.
I have unlocked bootloader so i was thinking of uninstalling the camera app from adbfast tool.
should i do that?
can i install the stock camera app using the apk?
and can anyone provide the stock camera apk to try the same.
will unistalling the camera cause any issue?
any help will be appreciated
i am having the indian k20 running miui global 10.3.6
this is a software issue in global rom you have to wait for update to fix it or go for xiaomi.eu rom if you unlocked the bootloader.

I'm not sure, but i think he meant the default settings in the camera app, not whole phone?

Had same issue. Enabling location permission seems to solve it. Thanks a lot.
After en.miui.com forums shutdown it has been tough to get help.

This is what actually worked! I had no update available (miui 11.0.3), didn't want to factory reset my phone and the photo app reset didn't solve anything, but activating the location permission did! Thank you.
