Snapchat - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone confirm if Snapchat works properly with any 7.1 roms with software keys enabled?
Last I noted was that the camera was fixed (wasn't out of proportion) but the buttons were still being overlapped.

Camera Failure?

Camera will open and operate normally. If the front-facing camera (ffc) is attempted to be activated the ffc will not open. The screen will go black and become unresponsive. I can only press the home button and get back to the home screen. If I try to re-open the camera app it then will not open. After the ffc attempt the camcorder also will not function. All failures seem triggered by the ffc failure. I must restart the phone and regain back camera functionality but it doesn't fix the ffc failure. Has anyone had ffc failures with their copy of this phone? I don't think that it is software but that is what I'm trying to determine. I flashed Bulletproof 1.1, CM7, Unity and the camera exhibited same behavior in all of those roms. After that, I reverted back to stock out of the box. Same failure of the ffc.
I have used this phone for about 5 months without any previous camera errors/failures. I was trying to get gtalk video to work around the time the ffc failure began. But now that I'm back to stock and the failure remains, I don't know.
1) Has anyone experienced ffc failure?
2) Could this be software related?
3) Has the new GTalk video apk broken anything for anyone?
TIA
i just tried this, and the front cam works perfectly, and i can switch back and forth between front and back camera with no problems. i'm on the very latest OTA that installed the video Gtalk.
could it be your phone's hardware? did it work before?
I'm figuring that it MUST be the hardware. Just odd that it began right when trying to really utilize the ffc for the first time. I have utilized it here and there in months past several times. Thanks for your reply. I guess it is just hardware failure. Happens.

[Q] Camcorder issues - need suggestions to narrow down issue

Ok so recently ive been having issues with my MTS4G (it used to work fine so i dont believe its a rom issue) - but i am running KK DS1.2 - which is awesome. I still miss the original sense based camera and as such have set out on a missin to find the best camera app--- hence i have the stock KK camera (i.e. camera) as well as following apps installed:
1) Ucam
2) Focal
3) camera zoom
4) procapture
5) camera KK
Again dont think its the rom , but for 2 weeks now (ive had rom for say several months now) , but when i switch to camcorder (stock KK camera app) mode and preess record all i see is a "halo" around the record button, at which time the video being displayed on phone (which is supposed to be recording) freezes for a second, then resumes as if it were recording. but i see no recording notice, or any timer indicating its recording and the default app (on a good day) makes 0 (zero) byte mp4 files. Not sure where to start i see that KK DS 1.3 is out, but was hoping to figure out what might be the cause of the issue.
I do see that when i press the record , the LED fires up as it used to , but it just doesn't seem to record anything.
Perhaps i have too many camera apps (was trying to compare and find best one) - but my camera with all the apps works great, but after several months of using the camcorder (in ANY app) i cant get it to work at all --- the led light comes on, but it doesn't seem to record anything.
suggestions?

Bugs of all nougat rom::

Some apps not working on all nougat roms::
1. All in one gestures app::
a.Hard keys option not working
b. screet shot not working through this app
c. Screen off not working through this app
d. volume slide bars
2. Smart screen on/ off app::
a. Swipe on proximity sensor to on/off screen not working fine.
its work only 1st 4 or 5 times bt not fully works....!!
Plz help to fix this problem....!!
For the j700h
Nougat 7.1.2 works nearly perfect
It only has mic issues.
Man I'm still waiting for the mic to be fixed. That's the only thing holding this rom down.
Because the mic won't work, video won't work that means youre camera is pretty much useless for youtube, Snapchat, twitter, Facebook, or even just taking normal video.
You cant use voice record.
& calls are all messed up.
Seems like the dev just gave up & went home, which is sad.

Instagram stories and front camera problems [Lineage 15.1]

I've searched here and on other forums but can't find an answer to some camera related problems.
I'm using 15.1 Osprey June, 1st build on my Moto G3 2Gb Ram (XT1543).
PROBLEM 1: front camera not working.
This is happening for a long time, since I was using stock ROM (my phone came with 6.0, but that time both camera worked fine).
Don't know when this starts, cause i didn't use front camera very often, but when on 6.1 this already happened, the change camera icon simply disappeared.
I've tried all tricks, format the phone, boot on safe mode, clear chaces, etc.
I've used Lineage 14 for a while and now I've made a clean install of 15.1 and same thing.
Back camera works fine for photo and video using Footej Camera — the first time I opened this app, there was the change camera icon; I clicked and get that camera error message, and now the icon disappeared again. Installed MotoCamera_Mod_6.2.5.16 and same thing: back camera fully functional, front camera no icon or options.
Didn't drop my phone, but i'm considering some hardware problem.
Anyone has a link to a DIY fix (or at least try)?
Here in my country, the cost of the repair probably does not pay...
PROBLEM 2: Instagram stories not working
photos works fine, a click the button and can add to my story, but when I record video, after it's finished the buttons doesn't appear and the app freezes.
on "hands free" the image freezes during record, when try to make a boomerang "an error occurs" message appears and the **** goes like this...
I've removed and install back the app, have the last update, etc.
Is someone else having this problem?
thanks!
problem solved!
if someone else is having similar problems, here's the (obvious) solution:
just do a clean flash!
I did it and everything is working now (instagram stories, other camera apps functions and GPS).
except the front camera, probably due to some hardware stuff.

Rear Camera + Flashlight keeps getting disabled... Why ???

I have had no issues at all for almost an year with this phone. I was running oreo ever since I bought this phone. Suddenly, a day or two before upgrading it to pie 9.0, I found out in my Snapchat app that there was no back camera sign. First I thought, some weird snap update, but then I found out in system Camera app, it was even not showing the back camera. Whenever I would click on the rear camera sign from the top in Camera app, it would keep on swapping to the frontal secondary camera and then back to the primary frontal camera but no back camera was working. Also I found out that my Flashlight icon is hardened or greyed out, like it's been disabled forcefully. I can make it work using some other app, but it is frustrating why this is happening.
Now I am on android 9, rooted, and this problem keeps on coming and going. At times the back camera won't even work or open with the error "Camera not working" etc. Sometimes, the back camera would work but with only 3 weirded resolutions, like 12MP, 16MP, and some other. and the video mode will be extremely large or zoomed in at 16MP. Suddenly, the camera will start working normally again with all the perfect default resolutions. I tried everything from SAFE MODE to CLEARING THE CAM APP, RESETTING THE APP, but nothing works. All it seems like that camera has suddenly came to life and has a self-consciousness and a mood which it is controlling itself. Sometimes it wants to work and at times, it simply just gets disabled. Any idea what could be the problem? I am rooted using MAGISK.
Simular camera problems with Lenovo tab v7
I have a Lenovo tab v7 with almost the same problems, the rear camera wont work but occasionally the front camera works and the flash LED is dead.
Running Android 9 Pie as well, but not rooted yet.
Any ideas about what we can do about it, is the camera hardware due to be replaced?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It suddenly started happening almost a month ago, I was on oreo 8 and then upgraded to pie 9 but the problem persisted. It kept working for few days and then started to make problems again. I tried to read many forums for android users with the same problem but still haven't found a single complete fix for this problem other than that the rear camera needs to be refixed. But I am finding it hard to believe that even if camera was getting bad, there is no point of FlashLight getting greyed out/disable from the notification bar. It seems more like some kind of a process is not releasing the rear camera and flashlight module/process.
