Camera & Flashlight Problem

Hello,
this is my first post in this very very very helpful forum
recently i bought nexus s for 50$ but nor camera neither flashlight working
i tried:
1) flashing diferent roms
2) disambled it and cleared camera ribbon pins
but no success.
at this time i am on stock jelly bean i flasshed this one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784497
when i start camera it says "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped" and app cloeses, but when i start app "Tiny Flashlight + LED", the app starts but it says "an application like youtube running in background may be preventing the light from starting. try stopping it or reboot your device" after that if i start camera it says different: "Can't connect to the camera". and if i force stop "Tiny Flashlight + LED" again camera app says "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped"
so i cant understand the flashlight is damaged and forcing camera not to work or camera is damaged and forcing flashlight not to work or both.
and one more thing, the front camera works (third part apps) but it shows 90 degree rotated picture no meter how i rotate it.
sorry for bad english
any help would be apreciated

thx but didn't work
maybe i had to post in General ?

i read somewhere that flashing roms via clockworkmod doesn't change every partition just system partition, so i decided to download the stock 2.3.3 backup and restore from clockworkmod but it didn't solve, same no camera no flashlight.
is there any better way to completly revert back to stock, then restoring 2.3.3 from clockwork?
1 more question:
if camera hardware is broken does it mean that flashlight wont work? until replace camera?

HEEELP i need heelp
i replaced camera but same, no camera, no flashlight, front camera showing rotated picture.
i cannot understand how can front camera work but now rear when they are on the same module (attached file)
now i am sure that it is software issue BUT, i tried everyithing
1) restored stock via CWM (i downloaded CWM Backup)
2) flashed stock via fastboot (radio, baseband, -w update)
different kernels, basebands, roms nothing helps
i have 1 last chance, ODIN!
but i don't know how to use it.
but if you are sure that flashing via odin is SAME as flashing via fastboot then i have no idea

Did you solve your problem?
Hello,

I met the same problem . But I am sure that it is about ONLY software problem. (I tried to check from factory reset window, Suddenly flash light become working, blind up. But it was whole chinese, I couldn't understand anything). If you solved, can you please write?
Thanks

camera cause fc

The rear camera suddenly stopped working. Itried to clean the cache, recovery and install a new rom
But the problem persist. Should i think it's an hardware issue or there some
More thing i can try?

Camera Error

My Moto Maxx has an intermittent problem in the camera and the rear camera is no longer working, when I try to use a message appears saying "camera error" and asks to restart the camera.
I have tried several procedures like uninstalling apps that use the camera, cleaning data and installing another version of the camera software but none of that worked.
I am using stock rom 6.0 + root.

Have you tried a factory reset? A different ROM? Try to rule out any software problem.

Oneplus one camera issues on cm 13

Hi
I have a oneplus one and recently factory reset is but now the camera comes up with "unfortunately, the camera has stopped working". The phone is running android 6.0.1 and cyanogen 13.1.2—ZNH2KAS3P0-bacon. This was working fine until the reset. I have cleared the app data and cache, the gallery data and rebooted to safe mode at which point it still wasn't working. I'm not the most techie type so could anyone help please? I've checked other answers but I don't really understand quite what I have to do.
Thanks

P30 Lite Camera stopped working after update

Hello there,
I have just noticed that there is a section for P30 and I would like to know if someone is able to give me some assistance in this subject.
I have a friend that lost his front camera (selfie camera) after an update from huawei.
Everytime he selects the front camera it freezes completely and just returns a black screen. Messenger does not work, whatsapp does not work, all video apps cant enable the front camera, I assume they broke the selfie camera from the main app.
I have seen some people complaining about this all over the internet and the assistance says to follow a few reset steps.
Last case return to assistance, what if the smartphone is out of warranty period?
I would like to know if someone had this issue and knows how to fix it.
Thank you!

Same problem here... First it was black screen and crashing of camera app, then after clearing android cache, camera app cache and gallery cache, back/main camera is working again but front/selfie camera is crashing when i try to change to it...

Which android cache are you cleaning?

when i said android cache i meant cache from that eRecovery menu (volume up + power button)
Meanwhile, I tried to revert to android 9, and the problem persisted, reset to factory defaults didnt help as well, then update to Androdi version10 didnt help... Have no idea what to do...
Sending it to service tomorrow...
