Phone model: Oneplus 7 Pro GM1911 (India)
Problem: Back camera not working - Black screen in the viewfinder
Wherever I try to open the camera from WhatsApp, snap, camera, gcam, etc.. my phone crashes and the only way to come out of it is to re-boot my phone.
If i long press on the camera app and select selfie my front camera works, so the problem is only with the back camera and whatever apps try to access the back camera.
Until recently I was in OOS 11 beat 4, realized my camera is not working so reset the phone to android 9 via an official update zip and then updated to OOS 11 stable V11.0.0.2 hotfix where many people were saying the camera started working again, but even after doing that my camera was not working.
Then I flashed PixelExpeiance ROM, following all the instructions for a clean flash. Still, my camera was not working
I again re-flashed the FW11.0.0.2 global with pixel experience ROM still installed, everything else works except my back camera.
Everything was working until I moved to Beta 4 of official OOS11, can anyone tell me how do I get my back camera working again??
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.
P.S: The country I'm living in right now doesn't have a Oneplus service center so taking it to Oneplus is not an option for me.
Update: Tried flashing the stock firmware using MSM tool, 10.3.8 still my camera does not work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Did you try OOS 11.0.2 they say it was a hotfix for most of the problems people where facing. Just a suggestion

Hello There, I'm facing a little problem. Need Some Help!
Professional/Manual Mode is missing in camera of my honor 4C.
Few days ago, I was trying to root my phone (running marshmallow) with TWRP Recovery and due to false directions, I wiped out all the firmware files.
Then I reinstalled the official stock ROM with stock recovery. Next time, I rooted my device successfully without deleting any file.
Everything was going ok, but yesterday, while trying to take some pictures with its camera,
I found (just) PRO Mode is missing. I tried installing other camera apps like open camera, camera zoom fx, But it's missing in them too.
Model NO: CHM-U01
Android Version: 6.0
I am currently on rooted OOS stable v 9.0.0 with blu_spark v51 and xXx mod. My OOS camera kept freezing/crashing and I have to force rebooted it everytime. Anyone have encountered this problem? Please advise
Try stock kernel, some reported having issues with cam + custom kernel. No idea why not all is affected.
Yes, I'm having very FREQUENT issues where the entire system freezes and locks up and I have to hard reboot. Happens very often when opening the WhatsApp camera (from the photo button in the text field on any conversation) as well as once in the actual camera app, which I've only opened a couple of times since switching over to the phone. It's infuriating really. This is the kind of bug you expect from poorly-made custom roms, not software that is supposed to be a stable, professional release.
This is on a 6T, though, but the software is very close and I've seen numerous people complaining about the same issues on both devices over on the OnePlus subreddit.
And to clarify, I'm running stock except for having Magisk root. This is a problem in stock OOS that OP needs to address.
Same issue here
9.0.2 Pie on OnePlus 6
Rooted with Magisk 17.2
Camera/phone will freeze close to every time I open it
Restart the device and it will open
Can't seem to find much about it on OnePlus forums except for people saying to reset the cache and then closing the thread off
I'm having the same issues...
Any new solutions?

This solution in the 6T forum seems to have worked for me: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78138000&postcount=3
Specifically, I uninstalled the camera using magisk debloater then reinstalled the version from apkmirror... so far it all seems fine now.
Is the rom flashed in both a/b partition? Some people have solved these freezing issues by flashing on both a and b because they only flash in one partition not both which caused their cams to freeze. Uninstalling the cam and reinstalling could also help
possible fix
my gcam mod and the stock camera crashed always when i opened them, i'm also on xXx rom with custom kernel.
i have nova launcher and when i flashed xXx again, like to update and have nova launcher in xXx profile activated it causes my camera apps to crash. Disable your launcher and try your cameras. Maybe this helps someone.

Sometime your method working for 30-40 min then the issue remains same camera show black screen...
I have OnePlus 6
Since past 2 months I am facing this issue. Whenever I open camera. It goes completely black. I am so frustrated with it as my daily usage is from camera....any permanent solution
I updated it via Oxygen Updater app, from Android 9 to 10 and then Android 11.1.1.1. The camera was working completely fine on Android 9/10 but 3-4 days after updating to Android 11.1.1.1., it started crashing. On 6-7th day it completely stopped working on stock Camera app.
Now when I click the Camera app, it opens the Camera with black screen and closes within two seconds. That's it, no response at all. It does not switches to front camera at all. If I select any other Camera Mode (Video/Portrait) on back cam it closes without any response.
I need your help Any solution
All right I spent a good chunk of the night trying to solve this but was unable to do so.
On OOS 10.3.8, I tried installing an updated APK for the OnePlus Camera that I got from APK Mirror. After the updated APK installed, it came up as a black screen. I tried reverting and I still got the black screen. I tried updating to OOS 11 to see if maybe the actual newer APK would solve it but it did not. So I did the MSMDownload back to OOS 10.3.8 and was still having the same problem.
I was able to get the camera working after MSMDownloading OOS 9.5.3 to the phone and updated it to the latest OOS9 (forget the number right now). Camera worked on there. Soon as I update to OOS 10 again, the camera stopped working.
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Ahaan it's happening with me also, i was using corvus os 4.O but after updating a newer version of corvus os 5.O, I am facing same problem like you ( camera is not working)
Someone help me to fix my camer
I flashed TWRP, couldn't mount data and stuff, got some error, rebooted to system and then the camera wasn't working.
Things tried:-
Going back to MIUI11 stock
MIUI12 older version
MIUI Latest version
EvoX older versions
I do not believe it's a hardware fault because it was working before I flashed TWRP. What do I do? I've heard people have had their cameras going down in the latest MIUI version. I have locked my bootloader and went to MIUI11 again and put in a complaint as they said in their tweet.
The other cameras, that is, both front and wide angle and macro are working fine.
