hey everyone,
a few days ago my camera app stoped working and so is my flashlight.
i tried to unistall the app and update it but it didnt work
then i did a factory reset but the app is still off
its probably a problem with the rear camera because the front camera works fine in selfie on whatsapp
Did any of you get a problem like this?

Rear camera disappeared last night. Started with the camera force closing, and after a reboot only the front camera works, rear doesn't even show in menus. Using Fluent ROM, was on 7.2 and then wiped/flashed 7.5 and still the same issue. At work atm and can't try much, but has anyone had a similar issue and some advice, or am I screwed? Flashlight apps still turn on the LEDs for what its worth.
Hello,
I installed the developer preview as soon as it came out. Today I noticed my front facing camera is not working. It was working 3 days ago. In the stock camera app, the button to switch to front facing is not present. I installed a couple of other apps and there is no option for the front facing camera there too. So I tried to wipe the stock camera app's data. After that, the app does not start at all, it just crashes. 3rd party apps still work, but just for the rear camera.
I tried to reflash the system image for android m, but still, the problem persists. I happen to have a spare front facing camera from another broken nexus 5 (RIP old friend), and I still have this issue. Anyone got any ideas?
This problem occured to me about a week ago when i upgraded my phone to android 6.0.1 . At first the camera was working fine but the about 3-4 days ago the rear camera stoped to function. The front camera is working perfect but rear one won't start at all. The interface of the camera is working and i can choose the resolution of camera and such options but the screen is black and when i want to see the photo it shows it as a broken format. If anyone has had similar problem please help.
it happened me, too. a restart solved the problem

I have already restarted it, I even did factory reset but it had no effect at all.
The camera was working fine until I updated to android 7.0. Every time I open the camera app it immediately crashes. Other camera apps seem to be working fine but the default camera app crashes. Has anyone else had this issue after the Nougat update? I tried resetting the phone and also clearing the cache with no luck.
I have the same problem too. It also affects snapchat, I cant open snaps. I also noticed that it deleted picture and music off of my g5. And I cannot record in the voice record app.
I have this issue too..... video recording is not working in camera and it's taking simple photo from camera app...... other feature like manual camera and pop out makes camera app stopped.
Have somebody fix this problem?

After 7.0 update My Quick charge is not working and when my phone 15% charge down automatic location on.
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?

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.
