[Q] Lollipop 5.0 camera not working?

After updating my Nexus to 5.0, the camera worked fine for a couple of weeks. However, starting from a few days ago, when I open my camera app, it won't function at all; instead, all I get is the screen shown in the screenshot.
I'm afraid that's all I can really explain about this problem, as I can't think of any other relevant details.
Thanks in advance.

Of course, I tried it twice.
Guess what though? After reading your post, I decided to try it again just for the sake of it, and it works now...Thanks for the solution haha?

Sometimes I get this annoying message when I try to access the camera, it says " Cannot connect to the camera " so what I usually do is reboot my device and then everything works again aha.
Glad it sorted itself out.

Same problem. Rebooted 4 times. Cleared cache. Still no camera

I have the same issue, tried the following
Reboot
Clear camera data
Reboot
Clear device cache
Reboot in safe mode
Reboot
None of that worked.
Tempted to try a new ROM and go from stock 5.0.0... See if that helps

I'm on stock rooted 5.0 and I have gotten this issue multiple times. Multiple reboots fix it temporarily but I can't figure out what actually triggers the issue.
I rarely use the flashlight pulldown, and haven't at all during the last few reboot cycles that this has still happened.

Xposed Issue/Question

Hello all. I'll try to explain my issue with as much detail and hopefully somebody can help me.
Anyways I picked this phone up on sale on amazon and I have already unlocked the bootloader and am successfully rooted. Now I want to use Xposed. I have been trying to get it to work for 2 days now and I am fed up.
I downloaded the correct Xposed installer(SDK 24 v88.2) and it will somewhat work but then after a reboot It says it's installed but not active and it tells me to check the logs of which are blank. I am rooted the supersu way and have twrp installed.
I've read about some script I can put in the init.d folder or something like that but I cannot seem to get it to work.
I am on emui 5.0 with android 7.0.
Can someone please for the life of me help me get this to work?
I'm simply trying to use a module for my Snapchat called snaptools.
I know it's a lot to ask but can someone please help with a tutorial or a fix/instructions?

Unluckily I'm facing the same issue on my phone without having found a solution yet, both by official or systemless Xposed versions, the result is always the same as yours; Xposed framework looks installed but deactivated after some reboots, and it stays like that until i completely remove it and reinstall it again. Then, after other 2 reboots or something like that, it gets deactivated again and again. I already tried to look for a fix on official systemless Xposed thread as you can see here from an old post of mine https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74439953&postcount=5740 but even trying other Xposed Installer versions (official, topjohnwu's, dvdandroid's one...) or without using Greenify4Magisk module, the issue persists. I thought I was the only one facing this lol. I'm rooted with Magisk, so the issue must be something else than the SU manager used. Can i ask you if you have Greenify installed on your device? I have to tighten the circle of possible causes of this, because it's getting me mad.

I do not have greenify installed unfortunately. I literally got this phone 2 days ago and I've never had this issue before.
I just uninstalled the SuperSU version and Installed the magisk version for root and then installed Xposed through the magisk manager and installed the modified Xposed installer apk that can see the systemless install. Xposed has survived a couple reboots and my modules are working but I fear that it will stop working as you stated before randomly. Have you tried it my way?
Flash magisk v14 through TWRP and then install Xposed SDK 24 systemless through the magisk manager. And then installed the modified APK for Xposed installer. It's at least made it further than the normal Xposed install.
Edit: Since I've posted this I have survived 2 more restarts. I feel like I'm playing Russian roulette Everytime I restart it but so far so good.

Ok so greenify isn't a cause of this issue... yes i tried it already, read my post above... Both by official by rovo89, and systemless by topjohnwu (with related installer obviously) the issue persists. It works, like the other one, but after some reboots (i reboot my phone once a day, at least) i find it deactivated. Yeah you said well, it's a Russian roulette ahahah i tried every version of Xposed practically...

Hmm I'm still active but I haven't restarted since I posted. I'm wondering why there isn't a more detailed thread regarding this as it seems a lot of people use this phone.
Maybe you can try fresh with magisk and the modified Xposed installer for straight systemless. I've had a hell of a lot more luck this way than I have through the regular install. It's survived 5 reboots so far. Have you tried just a soft reboot inside the Xposed installer? I mean I know it's not a full restart but it may maintain Xposed and keep it active.

Maybe because only a limited set of people are facing this. And maybe only some devices suffer this. I tried both, fresh installations of normal Xposed / systemless Xposed, both didn't survived after 2 or 3 normal reboots. Yes I always rebooted by Xposed Installer when it was installed, even because i can preserve on/off button the longest i can this way, but sometimes a soft reboot isn't sufficient to apply some modifications, so i rarely used them. I daily rebooted with normal reboots. I'll try when new versions will be available at this point, i tried actual builds for 2 weeks encountering always this error so I'm not motivated on trying them again

Hey @patrick8996 did you tried latest systemless Xposed, V89? It surely works much better than previous one, V88.2, it has already survived 5 reboots while activating various modules compatibility is definitely increased with this update, I hope the issue won't represent in future

I just installed it last night and so far so good.
My lasts posts regarding v88.2 were proved incorrect because once I rebooted one more time it went back to not working. But this new update to v89 seems to be working. Hopefully all goes well.

I've had a weird issue that my module's randomly stopped working. I had to disable them all in the Xposed app and restart and then enable them and restart again. Not sure if you've had this issue. But it's not that big of an issue because as long as Xposed stays active after a reboot it's a simple fix.

My Xposed stays active it's just my modules randomly stop working inside Xposed. So I have to disable all my modules reboot and then reenable them and reboot again.
I had issues last night with updating magisk. When I updated to v15 it took all my sound away on my device. I had to uninstall it and reflash v14 and everything went back to normal.

Phone randomly crash

Hello guys! First of all, sorry for my bad English.
Since this morning, my phone started crashing, and I don't know why. I didn't changed any module since yesterday and I've tried uninstalling magisk, changing kernel and so on, and nothing worked. The last thing that i wanna do is a factory reset so if somebody could figure out what is the problem based on this logcat that i did on the exact moment of the crash, it would be much appreciated!
Just go to paste ubuntu dot com and add /p/VyYQvpV72Q

Running stock Oxygen Open Beta 9, with Blu Spark kernel and Magisk 18. At the moment, i'm reporting crashes opening facebook, gmail, SD Maid, root explorer, but it is very random, and i'm logging everything and the problem seems to be a NullPointerException at process com.android.server.am.OnePlusJankManager, but i still could not figure out what this process does. In standby mode it does not crash, tried playing brawlstars and works fine...

What the hell, now i've tried with SD Maid a full cleanup, it removed about 3 Gb of junk and seems to be working fine!

same happens to me.
I'm on the same version (Oxygen Open Beta 9), but with stock kernel and no root at all.
I couldn't figure out a way to fix that yet

Same problem here since today.. Llast version of Oxygen OS, random crashes.
Phone goes black then ask my pin. Was about to do a factory reset but I don't know if this will be usefull. :/

I was in open beta 9 also when this problem started yesterday, I had to do factory reset and I installed the stable version 9.0.2 I had to install my applications all over again

I went to the stable version and gave hard reset and solved ..... just try the hard reset and see what it gives

As I said, after I did a cleanup with sd maid my phone stopped crashing, but after a few days again it started to crash, and once again I did a cleanup and seems to be fixed. But I don't know why this happens

How many Rom updates did you have without factory reset?

Only one update from beta 9 to 10 because i did a fresh installation via Fastboot after I tried to install MIUI. And anyways, I still had experienced crashes before. I also tried debloat with a script but nothing. For now it works just fine, but it's very random. I can't replicate the problem now, but maybe in a few days it will start again, and all I can see is crash at jankmanager (I see a lot of logs of that crash into /data/system/dropbox)

Rotation and many other thing are not working on android 10

Hi folks,
I've just updated my one plus 6 to android 10 and I already have many problems. The rotation and the automatic brightness are not working anymore. Plus, when you try to put your phone near your ear to listen to an audio message on WhatsApp is not working as well. Am I the only one with these problems?
Thanks

Same here.
Is this a bug or did I something wrong?

mine worked perfectly fine. but i find some issues where when i type on my keyboard it's little bit laggy. that's bother me a lot. so i had to soft reboot it

I get the same issues.. I'd fixed with factory reset, now everything works fine

I wasn't getting notifications of missed calls so factory reset. Then I couldn't access my contacts with the message saying something like, you haven't given all permissions. I downloaded another call app and gave all permissions. It worked fine, so I deleted it and gave all permissions to the OnePlus phone app (including location which I'm sure I never had to give previous). It now works...

Oh my... I don't want to do a factory reset ?

I fixed it by uninstalling Magisk via TWRP (there's now an easy guide to install it in Android 10), rebooting to system, check if the sensors are working again, and then reinstalling Magisk through TWRP again. If this happens again just re-do the procedure, an update will probably fix this.

my sensors went bad when first installing the open beta 30, but with a cache wipe in the recovery, everything should be back to normal again. Well, in my case it was so you should give it a shot as well

I usally don't post comments on this forum but i would like to thank you. I had the same sensor issues since Android 10 and it really grinded my gears..
Just wiped cache from recovery and voila, the auto rotate works like a charm.
Thank you very much my friend and have a great day! :good:

'Unfortunately, that is unavailable with this device' - Assistant

Hey all,
Over the last few months, I haven't been able to get Google assistant to make phone calls or send text messages. All other functions work.
When I say, 'call my wife', or 'send text message to wife', it tells me that function is unavailable.
It used to work flawlessly.
I have changed nothing to cause it. I just woke up one morning and it didn't work.
So far I have tried:
-Factory reset
-clear cache, etc
-Magisk hide on assistant app, call manager, Google play services and google text to speech
I am on latest stable Oos with latest XxX Rom.
The issue started around 3 months ago.
Where should i be looking to fix this?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Does anyone know of any other forums I can post this question? I can't post in the OnePlus forums yet because of new member restrictions. I'm just trying to get more coverage for my issue so that I can get help solving it.

Do you know what day this happened?

Not sure but that happened to me too but here's what i did
1. Boot into twrp
2. Wipe system, vendor and cache no need to wipe data unless you don't care losing your files DO NOT REBOOT
3. Flash latest oos either 9.0.9 or beta Q is up to you DO NOT REBOOT
4. Flash twrp REBOOT
You'll all set if you need root just flash magisk
Let me know if it worked for you

I did all this on Sunday hoping that it would fix the issue. It hasn't.
Additional info: I have also just discovered that if I open the assistant app and type in 'call.........' or 'message........' , it says there is no app installed to perform that function.

Don't think this will be useful, this is an Assistant issue, reflashing the ROM probably won't help.

Can you check in the settings, under Apps, and Default Apps, if you correctly have a Phone app and an SMS app set as default ? Or maybe the Google App does not have the permissions it needs (Phone Calls and SMS permissions), you could also check that. This is probably a little thing like this, it's 99% sure it's an app or configuration issue.

Both apps are set as default and all apps have all permissions ticked.

I too have the issue and have tried several things with no luck.

I've also been experiencing this. It's been pretty frustrating when trying to use the assistant with android auto.

What ROM are you guys running? I wonder if there is any similarities between our devices.
