Hey guys, i have a problem. 2 days ago my camera suddenly dissappeart out of my app drawer. Its still listed under all apps and active apps in the settings but anywhere else its gone.
In the morning i took a photo and in the evening it was gone. Funny to me is that when I open whatsapp and want to take a photo it shows me the front cam but no back cam. I even installed other camera apps such as camera360 and so on. Only frontcam is working. There isnt even a FC or such, its just gone.
I am running stock (it was rooted but i flashed the full stock img trying to fix it)
If the question comes up, i did not delete or deactivate it nor was an update installed. I even tried other roms but no cam. Factory Reset etc nothing seems to work.
Rom full stock 5.0.1.
Yesterday i called LG support as I didnt buy it from Google directly but the guy on the phone was no big help, he was more confused than I am right now.
In conclusion its like someone took my phone appart and while reassemble he forgot to put in the cam ---just for clarification, this didnt happen!!!
Has anyone a tip or suggestion what I can do?
What happens if you try to download Google camera from the play store?
Nothing, in Playstore it shows installed so in the Apps. But in the drawer its still missing and in whatsapp only frontcam is available

Why would you rma it when you can flash the factory image and get it back as a worst case.

If you would have read the opening post you should know i flashed the stock img, tried 5 different roms...nothing.
BUT, i have a little update. theres a 4k camera here on xda LCamera is the name, this one is working. At least its now.
are you currently on lollipop?
yes, Stock 5.0.1 (Latest)
As mentioned before the LCamera is working but no other Cam app
Have you enabled nu player in developer options?
yes, ̶ ̶̶b̶̶u̶̶t̶ i disabled it..̶ ̶̶d̶̶i̶̶d̶̶ ̶̶a̶̶ ̶̶r̶̶e̶̶s̶̶t̶̶a̶̶r̶̶t̶̶ ̶̶o̶̶f̶̶ ̶̶t̶̶h̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶p̶̶h̶̶o̶̶n̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶a̶̶n̶̶d̶̶ ̶̶s̶̶t̶̶i̶̶l̶̶l̶̶ ̶̶i̶̶t̶̶s̶̶ ̶̶m̶̶i̶̶s̶̶s̶̶i̶̶n̶̶g̶
Thank you its working now. seems the NU-Player was the problem. But i did not change anything before it was gone...
Lol. Good good! I had never enabled it myself but remember people writing about it when the dev preview was released! Glad all is working again then! Your phone isn't broken. Lol
Still it seems funny that the NU Player has something to do with the camera.
Yup. Lol. Who knows why. It's been a bug since the preview which Google seem to not care about
Well...Phone was to LG RMA, almost every little thing was repaired (new case, new display, new speaker and vibration) but cam is still or better again missing.
It worked for the first two days after the. RMA but then it went missing again.
The RMA document states that it was repaired or better the flex cable of the cam was repaired.
Any ideas?

Hey guys, I was wondering what my options are at this point. One of the lights has stopped working...the button still works though. Will Costco/ATT replace the phone? I'm almost positive they will but does anyone know how long they take? I cant be without a phone for more than a day.

Yes they will replace it. This was seen on some of the first ones that came out. Just ask if they will just trade you a new one on the spot and make sure they let you turn it on to check for any other hardware defects.
Edit: this is assuming your hardware warranty is intact

Yes it is. Thanks! But I doubt they will give me a NEW one. Its been over 3 months.
Same thing happened to my AT&T HOX, It was working normaly then suddenly the recent apps light stopped, the button works perfectly tho...
I did factory reset, cache and davlink cache erase, changed rom and tried almost everything, the light started working again but dimmer, not as bright as home or back...
Today the home key backlight stopped working too (its like a virus spreading) and i got them to work after every reebot and when I answer a call but again, both backlights are dimmer than the original...
What did they say? could you replace the phone? Im still thinking its a software issue rather than hardware... maybe Im wrong!
Please if you find someway to fix it let me know! I will do so too!
Good luck!

No it was a hardware issue. Well at least that's what Costco said. I also factory resetted RUU'd and all that . They are amazing! After 90 days they still gave me a new one no questions asked!
EDIT: If your out of warranty (It hasn't been a year since the phone came out so that's not even possible but oh well) you can take the back off the phone and press the LED panel under the buttons down firmly and they start working again! I tried this on my new one (I know..i'm stupid )
Hi everybody, I have recieved my N5 2 weeks ago and Im loving it. The only problem I have is with the camera. Lets face it, the camera app is not so great and Im curious if there is a good replecement for it. I have a samsung galaxy s2 from almost 3 years ago with 8 megapixels and it takes much better pictures therefore I know it is the camera app, not the camera itself. Yes, Ive tried some camera apps from the play store but none of which I tried really work great. I am more curious in ports from the lg g2 or galaxy s2-4 if possible? What are the best alternatives or what is possible? Thanks.

I will try Zoom FX and see how that works
the camera app is fine, no issues with it and taking fast and motion shots. maybe its something you need to learn?

ill adjust exposure occasionally, but rarely change anything. but i do not rely on autofocus, ever. i touch to focus where i want it focused. just pressing the button and getting a general focus is satisfactory, i like making sure what i want gets focused on.
hi there,
suddenly my apps wont go in full screen mode. i did install xposed lately, so its maybe related. but before unlocking bootloader (effectively wiping) this happened too. so in my opinion its not related to xposed (gravitybox installed).
any ideas how to fix this? sometimes its like on screenshots, sometimes only dots instead icons. black frame is still present.

I don't want payed app for something build in. Few days ago it was working, now it's not. There must be something changed in system. I would love someone to direct me in right way so we can fix it. But thanx anyway
Did you play any movie and check.. Or this issue only related to apps?
Sent from my XT1032 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
just tried to stream movie to mx player and it works as suppose to so it looks like only apps :/
for example in this game a see black backround, but instead of icons i see those dots. this is how it should behave before kitkat. since kitkat we should have true full screen, right?

These dots indicate the navigation buttons.. If you don't want these, you can install modules like "force immersive mode" in xposed framework...
It's not the issue..

Check mine... See few apps, games won't go full screen mode.. Developers designed like that.. If you want full screen.. Use xposed modules..

few days ago that app was in full screen.
also about angrybirds go. do you think developers let there that navigation bar on side, so when i want to turn right i actually quit the app?
i already told you, those apps where in full screen since i bought my phone. suddenly few days ago those apps wont go to full screen. something happened to system.
You guys know when an HBO presentation starts on TV they start with a TV Noise.
Well, I have now the same screen on my N5

Taking a screenshot with the built-in function, I get everything correctly
(Actually, quite difficult to unlock the pattern when can't see anything)
The phone is rooted, TWRP 2.7.1.1 installed, Stock ROM, KitKat 4.4.4
Could be co-incident, but the problems started short after installing KitKat 4.4.4
When updating to 4.4.4, I only flashed Radio, System and Boot.
I didn't flash Cache and Bootloader (basically because Bootloader same as previous).
Is the problem related to not flashing cache and bootloader or a hardware problem of the glass?
Sometimes, if I don't touch the mobile, the screen returns to normal, but now, even when I boot to the bootloader, I still have the "HBO Screen"
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers
Tom
I love the fact you've called it the HBO Screen. Real Imaginative!
However, unfortunately, it's a hardware issue. The screen or the Flex cable have gone bad and it/they needs to be replaced.
You were right, it was the cable.
Went to LG service partner and 30 minutes later it was fixed.

Woah! That was quick
First went to LG, they told me they have to send to their service partner, can't fix the same day
Luckily only a 20 minute drive so I went there personally.

I always get this after boot for about a half second I think while it runs the color gamma code. It's my favorite part of the bootup I wish it lasted longer. How can I get your feature OP???

I love doing that to UPS. Oh, you just got a package in from Washington that's for me but you're going to let it sit in the warehouse for 4 days because I didn't pay for 3 day shipping???

Just play a little bit with your internal flex cable (I mean mobile ) then you have it random and longer
However, it can be pretty annoying when u turn on the screen and have this TV noise copy

hey guys,
any of you had an issue with the screen going blank and never coming back on until the watch is rebooted? ( I have ambient screen on)
everything is still functioning, phone detects it as connected, i get vibration for notifications and can even get screenshots from the watch using the android wear app.
using stock watchfaces, not installed anything yet, only setup android pay, since i only intend to use for notifications and android pay.
this is really frustrating, it's happened 4 times within the first 24 hours...

if you can't touch and wake the device, you may need to send it for RMA. Do not waste time in testing, even it is a software issue. Let them fix it for you or simply replace it.

I'm based in hk too lol, just past the 7 day direct exchange period so i guess i'll just have to wait for a repair.

It is acceptable if the watch is loaded with many software. But not normal if it is freshly setup. You may try the official rom here and see if it is okay.
I have this problem now.
Screen sometimes starts working at random for a short while but goes back to blurry.

Mine also goes blank occasionally and only reboot helps, but it's so random, and maybe once a week? so I won't even bother sending for warranty because they might send it back saying that it's not happening to them.
Yesterday it happened while I was tracking my workout so that's a bummer but happily I was able to continue after reboot.
p.s.
I'm using always on display.
