My Moto G2 camera stopped working. - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The camera was working gracefully until after a reboot it just stopped.
As soon as I open the camera app, I get a popup saying "Camera Busy".
I have even tried hard reset and formatting but none seem to work.
Even the microphone quality has degraded.
Please help.

Front Facing Camera

When attempting to switch to the front facing camera I get this following error: "This application camera (processbasecom.android.camera) has stopped unexpectedly please try again" and I have to force close.
Also, I don't own the phone. My friend has it and told me whats happened. How can I help him?
restart the phone, kill all apps, try agisn..
while in camera app, settings, reset to default. That will fix it.

Unfortunately, Camera has stopped. [M Preview]

First off, I have not seen this anywhere else, but appologies if i've missed it!
Even on a completely clean install of the M preview, upon opening camera, and once passed the 'OK, GOT IT' button, camera closes. Every time. Regardless of what i do, clear cache, update, remove updates etc. Happens on Preview 1 and 2. Doesnt happen in 5.0/5.1/5.1.1. I thought it might be the fact the camera was damaged being reported in some new way to the system, forcing the closure (i ripped the cable slightly when repairing another part (i know, dumb, but i slipped)), but have since replaced with a new part and still have issues.
Has anyone else had this, and fixed it? Thanks!
Hello, I have the same problem. Unfortunately, my problem persists on older versions of android. My problem seems to be the front facing camera, because with a third party app, the rear camera works. I replaced the front camera, but it still does not work in any app, and the Camera app still does not start. Tried removing the front camera - app again stops working.
That is the same for me. Snapchat will use the rear camera fine, but doesn't register the phone as even having a front camera

Same here! I can take photos through Tinder, and download them to my phone (although sometimes the Tinder app will crash too). But whenever I open the Camera app I get the "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped" message. I've tried multiple reboots, closing the app, not closing the app, resetting the cache, etc. Nothing works.
I believe this all started when I tried to take a "selfie" one time (I guess that's God's way of telling me never to do that again). When I switched to the front camera all hell broke loose. Now I'm guessing it's "stuck" on the front camera and I can't run the app even to switch it back!

Camera failed

Hi to all! I recently purchased this great smartphone and I was really satisfied till two weeks ago. When I pressed the camera shortcut it entered the camera but it showed the error message which was - "Camera Failed". The only option it gave me was "OK" and it exited the camera. I tried for a few days to occasionally enter the camera and it almost always gave the same error message except one time when I tried in App manager the option to clear cache and data and force stop. Next step i tried factory reset and it helped instantly. I gradually started to install apps and when I got to third app which is Mbanking the camera crashed again. I'm really wondering what is the connection here? Few minutes ago I booted the S6 in safe mode and the camera worked! The front camera worked when the rear didn't! Is this software or hardware failure? Please help.

Camera Failed

So a few weeks after I got the phone I started getting the camera failed message. I've tried every option I've had, clearing the cache, force stopping, removing the sd card, turning off smart stay, even hard resetting the phone and using the complete data cache wipe. Finally I took the phone to samsung and they did their software update/data fix thing and it worked. For about 10 minutes my camera was just fine. Then the error came again, but not as often. I would get the error once then right after the camera would work. So for most of the day everything was just fine. However, then towards the end of the day, it's gone back to how it was before with all error with almost no successful camera app use. I had shown it to samsung again and they were just stumped. They said to try a complete wipe, but I've already done that with no success.
I bring this up because I can't find any recent threads on this issue. Also from what I've seen it's a software issue so do I just wait for a fix for RMA the phone. Everything else about it works fine. Does anyone else have this issue?
Warning: "Camera failed" imposible to solve but dialing *#0*# the camera works
Hi, I have a problem with my front camera in the Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F). It doesn't work and every time that I enter in the front camera appears the message "Warning: Camera failed"
The Rear camera works perfectly but since I've bought the S7 I never couldn't use the front camera
Here is what I have tried:
- Force Stop, Clear Data, Clear Cache, and Clear Defaults
- Clear Cache Partition in Recovery
- Factory Reset through Settings
- Factory Reset through Recovery
- Installed 3rd party camera app
- Installed another OEM ROM through Odin
- Repite everything
And the camera never work.
But.... by entering *#0*# into the dialer and picking Front cam the camera works perfectly and I can take a pictures. but through the app it doesn't work
Another thing that I can do it is, install the Dual-camera MODE and I can use the both two cameras at the same time although the front camera locks very blurry but it is another problem
I need to know if it is a hardware problem or a softwared problem. I don't know if I replace the front camera It will work.
Hi! I have this problem with my front camera I tried every option too and also install another Oficial ROM through odin but it didn't work
Did you solve it?
Try to put *#0*# in the dialer and test the camera. tell me if it works.

Front camera pops-up. But not working

Does anyone here face the same issue as i have? My device is properly taken care well, havent drop even once. But suddenly my front camera isnt working properly. My back camera works perfectly.
Everytime i use my front camera. It'll just pops up then itll close the camera application.
Tried all the troubleshooting that i can do(safe mode, clear cache force stop, restart) still nothing works.
Whats even worst is that my warranty ended last dec.2020
Factory reset if not then just hardware malfunction
