I recently updated my phone to 7.1.2 (Verizon, May updates) and every time I take a picture with HDR Auto or On, it gets stuck in "processing HDR+" around 75%.
If I take another photo, they also get stuck since the first photo is not processed at all and what's worse is that
I tried rebooting several times, clearing the cache and the data of the camera app but none of them worked. Do you have a solution for this issue?
I had the same problem. I'm BL unlocked and rooted. So i uninstalled the camera app via Titanium backup. Reinstalled from Play Store after a reboot. Now it's been working fine.

For some God forsaken reason, the camera in my N5 is a pile of crap. Let me list the issues:
(Note I'm using the stock Google Camera app and have tried CM Focal with identical results).
Switching from Rear to Front camera takes a stupid amount of time, usually winds up crashing the Camera app altogether.
Switching from Camera to Video results in a grey bar, 1/10th the width of the screen, spanning the entire length of the right side of the screen. The app usually crashes after this.
Videos usually can't record, the screen freezes, forcing me to hit the back or home button.
When videos do record, they're corrupt and cant be played on any windows machine or in any program.
Sound quality is laughable. (wasn't when I first bought the phone with 4.4.2 on it)
Snapchat usually can't even launch the camera and asks to restart the app. Usually results in me having to reboot the phone.
When the camera does work in Snapchat, pictures come out fine, but switching cameras usually reproduces the issue mentioned above. Videos, however record only 50% of the time. The times they dont, the screen freezes, resulting me having to restart the app.
When videos do actually record in Snapchat they have about a 50/50 of being unable to be played back, resulting in the error message: "Can't play this video".
On rare occasions, using the camera in Snapchat results in the screen flickering rapidly for a few seconds and then the phone reboots... The last time this occured it wiped all the data to Facebook, Snapchat, and EvolveSMS.
These symptoms exist in both Vanilla KitKat 4.4.4 and CM11 (Snapshot M8). Yes, I have reinstalled Snapchat. I've also tried toggling on/off HDR+ to no avail.
My Camera is basically useless and it's extremely annoying. It has even caused crashes that have wiped data from my phone. Hardware related? Software related? I'm really at a loss here... Any help is appreciated.
Well first try a complete fresh install to see if it's just software related

Factory reset, wiped case and dalvik, freshly installed CM11 last night before bed. Same symptoms exist as they did before.
Hi everyone,
I have a Nexus 5, which is completely stock with locked bootloader. I am running the latest Android 6.0 with the Nov 2015 security patch.
I noticed a couple of days ago that my torch had stopped working. Also when I try the camera I get the 'Can't connect to the camera' error.
I tried clearing app cache for camera app, and this did not work
I tried clearing all cache through settings, and this did not work
I rebooted, and this did not work
I tried a 3rd party torch app, and this did not work (uninstalled)
I tried a 3rd party camera app, and this did not work (front camera briefly worked but then also errored if I tried to take a pic. Uninstalled)
I tried safe mode, in case it was a third party app causing the issue, and this did not work
I then tried wiping cache through recovery, and this did work, but only for a short time - after an hour the issue returned.
Sometime just after rebooting and then starting the camera app I get a garbled view instead of the error (screenshot attached) and can briefly switch to the front camera, but if I take a pic it errors again.
Has anyone got any idea as to what could be causing the issues?
Thanks!
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.
Since I had an ota update my selfie cam comes up with an unknown error. Not a selfie fan so that's not too much of an issue, but I accidentally switched while taking vids of my kids sports day and missed loads as I have to go into the app settings and clear data every time.
I wiped cache and data from the camera app, gallery and everything that involves the camera... then restarted and.... nothing.
Is it to do with the cr3 update?
I don't really want to reset the phone unless I have to.
Any ideas ?
Hi guys,
My pixel 3 just starts restarting itself after when I take a few photos continuously in Google Camera app. I tried removing camera updates. I tried safe mode. I tried factory reset. After factory reset, before installing any other app, i tried using camera app before and after updating the app. Phone just Restarts by itself after a few snaps. Then it just keep restarting by itself, and sometimes automatically in safe mode or in aeroplane mode!
Guys.....help....
