You can delete the stock HTC Camera app, then re-install it through the Windows Store (under "HTC Apps").
Tell me if that works.

Hi,
Since roughly a week, my Camera app is crashing after a few seconds of use or after I've taken a few pictures.
At first, other apps using the camera (barcode, goggles, camera360) were still usable, but now even those Crash.
I've tried resetting the app by deleting its data, but the only thing that seems to help is a restart of the Phone, leading me to the conclusion that its not a Hardware failure but a driver one.
Has anybody here experienced the same behaviour or has a solution apart from a hard reset?
EDIT: turns out other apps using the camera are working just fine as long as I don't use the sense camera app, which seems to crash the driver so I have to reboot.
Still shouldn't be the case that the sense camera keeps crashing if your rooted try reinstalling or get another rom onboard. Its not okay in a way to keep using third party..some are better granted but personally it'd annoy the crap out of me that the original camera app isn't working. They do crash but not often...

Same is happening to me now.
Was working fine until a few days ago...
Have even updated to 1.78 OTA, but not dice.
Hello,
I have a problem with my Idol 3 Camera. For 2 days, I can't take any photo or video with the stock Camera app. I tried with others apps like Open Camera but same problem, the app crashes or either says me that the camera is currently used by an other application, which isn't the case. Btw, it's working with Messenger and Snapchat, but the quality is very low. And I can take selfies, but when I switch to the front camera, the app is crashing.
My Idol 3 is running the stock ROM and is rooted, do you have any idea to fix this problem ?
Thanks
You can try clearing cache in twrp or in settings/storage press on cached data

I tried another ROM but same problem
Yesterday, I could use my rear camera normally without problems. Now every app that uses the rear camera (Camera, Snapchat, etc.) crashes instatnly without giving chance to switch to front facing camera. Tried factory reset like a million times without any luck. What could be the possible reason and how can i get it back to work ?
HTC U11 Life Android One 8.1.0 (EU/PL) 32 GB
Same problem here...any fix for this?
same problem here, any solutions?
add another person. My wife's u11 just stopped working no matter the resets, forced RUU updates (stock) and everything.
Spoke to HTC they said they'd fix it but said they have no timetable on when they'd return it! They're falling apart.

This is U11 life thread and not u11, and its related to a not working camera module and not the whole device. For HTC repair i can tell you it takes something between 3 and 12 months to get the device back. No joke you can read about these long repair times a lot online.

same issue here. No fix but to confirm it's a hardware issue, I use Google voice commands to say "Take a selfie" - which launches the camera app with the front facing camera selected.
If that works fine, then it is likely a hardware issue with the rear camera, you can contact HTC, though your mileage may vary.
If front-facing camera is also not working, that could indicate a software issue you could try resetting the camera settings back to default. Other possible causes might be the disk / sd card where photos are being stored when camera is launched....
Back camera stopped working completely here, no picture, just black and the camera app closes after 5 sec. Resetting camera app did not help. Other camera app (open camera) has the same problem.
Front camera works from “long tap / selfie cam”
hey everyone,
a few days ago my camera app stoped working and so is my flashlight.
i tried to unistall the app and update it but it didnt work
then i did a factory reset but the app is still off
its probably a problem with the rear camera because the front camera works fine in selfie on whatsapp
Did any of you get a problem like this?
Hi, i have HTC U11 with android 9 and my camera stopped work some time ago.
Today i did reset to fabric settings, but it isnt help.
It doesnt work on any apk.

Does the camera work with apps like Google Duo, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger?

No it doesn't work on any apk which need camera, like snapchat, instagram etc, but front camera works.
Sometimes rear camera works, but without autofocus.
That's a sign you have mechanical failure, not software failure. You might need to have the phone repaired.

I have the same issue. Back camera doesn't work but front camera is working mostly on video call apps.
I tried replacing the back camera, but it doesn't fix the issue.
The only thing it works is draining the battery to 0%. Then, at restart, even native camera app seems to work properly. What do you think this symptom means?
