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,
did you solve your problem?
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
I had Cyanogenmod 11 installed on my S4 and about a week in the front camera stopped working. I went ahead and did a clean install again and the issue persisted. Two days ago I decided to just flash the stock rom back onto the phone and I used odin to flash the stock rom to get it exactly how it came out of the box. The front camera still does not work, and now I discovered the back one works but when I try to turn on HDR it freezes and crashes like the front camera. It says "warning camera failed". I've reset app preferences and took the SD card out but nothing fixed the issue. Any other things I could do to fix this?
Anyone help me please???
whenever i try to use my front cam (in stock/non-stock camera app or any app like skype etc.) I get a message displayed saying "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped working". I got access to the camera app after clearing data and cache but if i try to use front cam again, it stops working.
Is this a hardware problem?
I have done all these:
-tried stock/non-stock camera apps...
-wiped all data, system, cache, factory reset...
-rooted my phone and flashed custom roms (CM11, AOSP 4.4.2, SlimKat 4.4.2)
Any suggestions would be a help.
Thanks!
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.
Hello,
I am unable to use the camera. I have already tried:
wiping cache partition
booting in safe mode (same error)
factory reset
replace camera module with another one
This error happened without any special event (dropping the phone or installing other camera apps). I have a Nexus 5 with Android 6.0.1 on it.
Do you have any suggestions or any idea what is the problem?
If you know the replacement camera is functional, then I think it would be a problem with the motherboard. I assume you are running a stock 6.01 ROM.
