Or install titanium backup and backup all apps, reflash room, reatore apps
Always make a backup first before doing anything. Most especially since you're rooted. It's easy to make a backup in TWRP.
You can reflash the rom without losing any data. Just use flashtool and don't check any of the boxes under "wipe".

About time the power button was used for taking pictures. It's so damned annoying and hard to take pictures while tapping the screen and the picture goes out of focus. Thanks for the share pod

i doubt it will work, Camera.apk in GB and FROYO are completely different. Or atleast it is for now. If you replace stock Camera.apk in FROYO using TB of GB you get force close error and vice versa.
tested on froyo.doesnt work.

Well, I tried it on Froyo before reading the above posts and... it doesn't work.
BUT I have a small problem now: I backed up the original apk, and used Titanium Backup to backup the camera application again (to be safe). After trying out the new apk (and doing a reboot), I just replaced it with the original one, and rebooted again. Problem is that the system just doesn't recognize it. And Titanium Backup just hangs when restoring the app.
So, there is no icon, the app is not installed, and I can't use the camera now. Any ideas?
EDIT: If someone could post the original Froyo Camera.odex (and apk, to be safe), this would be great. I expect this to solve my problem.

:O Should just let TB restore App+data for camera o.o, Try a hardboot and see if you have that option not freezing up on you
@ Misledz: As I said, TB hangs when restoring => It doesn't restore the app. Rebooted many times, didn't fix it either.
But just learned that you can extract files from .rfs images, and did that for my firmware - camera is working again!

Power button doesn't work on XXPE. Don't know about the power level yet..
It all started last night. I went to take a picture and the stock Camera 2.0.002 said it 'wasn't installed'. I went to the Play Store and saw the new Google Camera. I installed it, hated it and went to restore the old one from Titanium. However it won't restore at all. I chose 'app only' but it just sits and spins and never restores. Now I'm stuck with the new one and ANY camera app refuses to take pictures with the front facing camera and restarts the phone.

I would uninstall any camera app you have. Reboot into recovery and reflash gapps. You also just pull the camera apk out of the zip and push to system/app. Then reboot

Hi guys, Nexus 5, stock but rooted, 4.4.2
I tried installing a sony camera app (flashing the zip in CM recovery), it didn't work, but it also stopped the Google Camera from working (I get the "Camera has stopped" error).
I've removed the sony camera using toot explorer, I've tried uninstalling Google Camera updates and re-installing, I've also flashed Jishnu's "restore to stock" zip file from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/mod-jishnus-camera-t2516061
Still no luck, can anyone help so I don't have to reinstall everything?
thanks
I've done a couple of factory resets and it's doing the same when it boots
Is the camera apk in the correct folder with correct permissions?
Permissions should be rw-r--r-- (have a look at other apps in the same folder and copy their permissions).
Once you've done that reboot to recovery and clear Cache and Dalvik.
Here's the correct locations for the two different cameras:
New Google camera (com.google.android.Googlecamera-1.apk) = /data/app/
Older "standard" camera (camera2.apk) = /system/app/
Also make sure no traces of the Sony camera are left... check through your folder
Not saying it will 100% work, but worth a try if nothing else does!
The zip might have deleted some of the stock camera libs which are needed to load the stock camera. If I were you, I would backup and flash the factory images and then re-root and restore the backup! (TiBu)
Edit: Since it's just the camera, you could try flashing just the system.img and see whether the camera is fixed or not!

if your in a custom rom then there is a problem in your rom
try to put your stock rom back it
hit THANKS if i helped you
To fix this :
You need to take backup of GCAM app in titanium in Oreo and then restore the app+data in p
In case your already on p...ask someone to backup and share files from titanium folder
For ease of use ...I have uploaded the gcam version I use and I have found it to be the best one yet...
Also I'm uploading files necessary to restore in Pie
(Tested on PR1)
1. You need to be rooted with magisk
2. Also flash fix by highway star for treble roms
3. Install titanium backup and open and give root permissions.
4. Extract files from zip file and put it in /titaniumbackup
5. Now open titanium backup and go to backup/restore and scroll to the end ul see the camera option...just click on restore app+data.
6. Let it install and after it installs DO NOT CLICK OPEN
Click on done and then open normally as any app.. Everything should work fine....All though u can't change any settings as it FC..but ive pretty much selected the best settings already..
Files to be downloaded:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1qzbN_n-QUQFgGxucVA4FcPKVcocv4uUl
You don't need to download camera APK ...if u want ..u can..
thnxx
Settings force close can be solved by this magisk mod.
With the above menrioned mod i could now change settings. HDR+ and potrait works well. However switching between front and rear camera takes a whole 8 seconds. Is there any way to fix it?
Now camera settings works, but video is green. Any fix?

I noticed it just now. Video is green in gcam. But video is fine in the other camera app that installed as part of this mod.
