I was curious and taked a look to the flaslight of my phone (as MD, i don't recommend it to anyone to try this, but i did it) and saw that my upper light is not working. I compared the light with dual flashlight on my other phone (Lenovo K900). The second one have both flash working. Then i tried to take picture, it's ok, but i wasn't able to notice working upper light. I reset the camera apk, restarted the phone, the same situation.
By the way i cannot find the system torch apk!
Is it normal? Can i replace the torch apk? Hardware, or software damage, or something else?
What to do? (I don't want to go to the service).

Hello,
I had some problems with the camera button on my cingular 2125 but I managed to fix it just by cleaning it with wd40. Unfortunately a couple of days after the issue with the button was fixed I notice that I was not getting any image from the camera sensor - just black screen.
The same time I was playing with the rom updates and now I am not sure if that might be a hardware or software issue. Currently I am on WM6 perfect english v6 and it works perfect except the fact that I am not getting any image form the camera sensor.
When I turn the camera app on it shows the loading icon for a split of a second as usual but then no image but a black screen. I can actually see the camera image area boundary because if has a different shade of black that the background black but thats it. When I turn the COOL EFFECT picture actually goes blue. Playing with brightness and other settings does not help.
Anyone can tell if it is most likely a fried sensor issue or some driver malfunction.
I think its a driver issue.
I've had the same issue with my phone. If I click on the menu and choose the Reset Brightness option the camera goes back to normal, but anytime I try adjust the brighness settings it goes to black and I have to reset the brightness again. Not sure what the problem is.
I tried with every possible setting in the camera app menu but nothing works. Also when making a video it records the sound but not the image.
I guess since there is not that many people with a similar problem I assume a fried camera sensor or some other hardware issue. I am trying to get a new camera on ebay but no luck yet.
Does anyone know if the camera for 2125/spv c600 can be taken from some other model.
The one from the magician looks very similar except the shorter data tape:

Hello all,
I'm hoping someone an help with this.
I have already asked a few people, but no-one has been able to solve it just yet. I have faith though.
No matter which ROM I use (was using Vegan initially, then tried TnT Lite and even the stock TnT) when I try to use the camera it seems to "crash". The app loads, and I can interact with the app, but the camera screen seems to crash (colored lines for a split second, then nothing) then goes black. I can still change settings in the camera (such as change to video etc) but the camera screen is just black. When I click the shutter button to take picture, the picture appears at the top right in the little box but is just a green square.
Anyone any ideas?
Does it sound like a software issue? Or hardware?
I'm really hoping software as I don't want my tab to be broken.
I have not tried an nvflash yet, but probably going to do that tonight and fully reset it. Might that help?
Thanks in advance!
Mine was doing something like this. I found out with mine that when I opened the case, the camera had popped out of it's spot and wasn't pointing out the keyhole.
I have a strange problem that I can't seem to find an answer for. I have an SGH-I727R rooted with stock ICS ROM. I don't know when this started happening so I'm not sure what triggered it, but the flash on my camera doesn't work.
My LED works because my flashlight app works, and when I go to take a picture in the dark, the camera will turn on the light for auto-focus, but when I go to actually take the picture, the light turns off but doesn't flash for the picture. I've tried 4 camera apps and they all do the exact same thing.
Things I've tried so far:
- I thought it had something to do with settings on my flashlight app (shaking the phone to turn on the flashlight) so I wiped all data and uninstalled it
- turning off the phone and pulling the battery
- used Titanium Backup to reloaded the last backup of the stock camera
Because the light works, it's not hardware. There must be a file missing that triggers the flash mode for the LED or something. Could reloading the stock ROM fix this problem? It's really annoying not being able to take pictures in low light. Again, the light works during auto-focus, but doesn't actually flash for the picture. If anyone has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hey All,
Replaced my cracked screen this weekend. Everything seems to be back to functional now, EXCEPT
- the ambient light sensor isn't working
- the rear camera isn't working
If I open the camera app (any camera app) it will show the front camera so I see my stupid face, but if I push the "use the other camera" button nothing happens.
Entirely possible I messed something up in the reassembly, BUT before I go and take the thing apart again I was wondering if there was anything I could try from a software / firmware perspective first.

Well, I am not the biggest hardware person, but I believe you can run the RUU and detect if it is a hardware issue. Again, I am not sure, you may want to double check.
Bump, anyone else have any suggestions for ways to "wake up" my camera?
FYI for anyone else who stumbled upon this thread - the problem was a disconnected ribbon cable that I missed. Between the motherboard and the plate that the camera sits on it a TINY ribbon cable (lengthwise) that has to plug into the back of the motherboard. It's nearly impossible to get even the tiniest tool in between the motherboard and the front assembly while this cable can reach its connector. So if you end up in this situation, have a lot of patience. I don't know if there's a way to get the screen off WITHOUT disconnecting this cable, but I certainly couldn't find one.
I think there is something wrong with some permissions on my Feiting H9500+. After booting my phone both of the internal cameras works fine. But after opening the camera app for the second time, the screen shows up green (check screenshot which i included as attachment). The only solution i know to fix this is to reboot my phone again. Which is ofcourse very annoying.
Does someone know a more permanent solution for this 'green screen camera' problem?

I have this H9500+ I bought at Aliexpress. After a couple of months this issue start to happen. I think it has something to do with software and not hardware because if you poweroff, remove the battery, put back and turn on it will come back to normal. At least for some more time!
It probly has something to do with some software I have installed. But since I have installed a ton of apps I don't know witch one coused this to happened. Best bet I think would be to installed a new fresh ROM from scratch and see if the problem persists.
Cheers,
