Camera Problem - Help.

Hi ,
I have a Honor 6 plus running on EMUI 3.1 Lollipop 5.1.1 Model PE-TL 10.
I recently upgraded to the above from 4.2.2 because I had an issue on 4.2.2 as the contacts kept vanishing suddenly.
Now on 5.1.1 the default camera app - the back camera wont work on camera or wide aperture mode but works fine on video mode. In camera or wide aperture mode I get a black screen and none of the buttons work - only the settings button works and that too after a delayed time. I am not able to understand the problem. The front camera works fine on the default app.
I have installed Google camera and that works fine but as you know the default app is awesome.
I sent the phone for the service center also and they were not able to figure out the problem. I hope you can help me.
Is there a way I can maintain the 5.1.1 lollipop version but change the camera app to the 4.2.2 version or is there another solution to this problem.
Appreciate your help.
Cheers
Kunal

Front camera not working after installing custom rom. Please help :(

So I just decided to unblock bootloader, recovery and all that stuff to get on the custom rom.
Have been tried 2 rom: Evolution X and Pixel Exp
The rom seems to be working perfectly fine and the camera app as well but when I switch to the front camera, it just crashes all the time for any camera applications, I can use the camera and toggle the front camera then slide the phone down a bit and actually seeing the camera works through the small light gap appear on the screen but as soon as the slider full slides down, the app just stops right away without any warning.
How do I troubleshoot this ? Does anyone here encounter the same thing ?
I facetime my mother a lot so this really sucks for these recent couple of days already. Should I switch back to og software ?

If your on EvoX and use this camera: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog590/
When you slide down your front camera should work immediately.

Just swap back the rom and tried the app. Well it still doesn't work. Its go black screen for a sec and close the application.
None of the application with front camera works as well.
Is this a common thing ?

No, it seems like you are the only one with this problem. If it above does not solve it, I don't know.

This is a known issue. Start the camera, switch to portrait mode, then switch to FFC. It works fine with the latest Google camera port than with the Xiaomi camera. Once the app has crashed, to recover it, dismiss the app from Recents.

I had it too i switched back to stock then i formated from twrp then if you don't know what to do when you dont have an os don't freak out just connect it to the pc and drag and drop the files/rom into the phone install and you should be good to go

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?

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.
