THL W3+ does not recognize rear camera (main camera)

Hi guys.
I have bought a THL w3+ from geekbuying.com 6 months ago. Almost from the beginning I have a problem because randomly Android does not recognize the rear camera and when I start the camera program is only posible to choose the frontal one (2Mpx). It doesn't appear the icon to change between them.
I have done many tests with inconclusive results. These are the facts:
* The mobile phone came to me with Thl.w3.12.1113.6577.COM.EN ROM installed.
* The mobile phone was rooted it
* Randomly the camera program crashes and since this moment is not possible to use the rear camera. Even if I restart the mobile phone.
* I've tried with different ROMs with no success
Sometimes, the camera has returned to life.
Once when I removed the battery for a minutes, after restar the camera was working (till next crash few days after). It didn't happen again, I've tried to remove the battery and It doesn't work
Once when I replaced the boot partition with the original ROM. It didn't happen again
Once suddenly in a normal restart after the battery ran out. It didn't happen again
As you can see, there are not clear symptoms and I don't know what else to do. Sometimes I think is a sw problem and sometimes I think that is a "battery-saturation" for having the mobile phone too much time with no restart
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Nobody?

Sorry I have no idea why yours behaves like that.
I've had this phone since November 2012, only recently did my front camera stop working
once i switch to the front camera in the camera app, it freezes.
I tried another app called Cymera, the same result.
But my rear 8MP camera still works.
You can ask customer service for the solution.

Camera and Flash start slow after root

My camera starts only very slow since I have rooted my device. Only root with Lollipo 5.1 no custom rom.
When I click to open the camera, a black screen pops up and I have to wait for 5 seconds until I can use the camera.
Same when I want to use the flashlight in the dark. It takes 5 seconds for it to start and 5 seconds to turn off. When shooting a picture after the camera has started, the flash works normally.
Another problem I have is, when shooting a picture, I have to hold the camera very calm because I found a setting to change the picture quality to "High quality, slow shoot" and this affects the speed when taking a picture. Unfortunally this setting seems to have gonne. I upgraded to Android 5.1 and since than I cant find it anymore.
Has anyone a idea what could cause these problems?

Camera Flash Focus Question

Hello
I have bought a new OP7 Pro and I updated immediately to Android 10 beta 2.. no my smartest move apparently.
When I'm trying to focus in the dark with the main camera app just by tapping the flash does not turn on at all.. and if I try to take the picture the flash turns on and stays on like a torch not by flashing for a fraction of the second like a normal camera on any smartphone.
First I thought it is a hardware based problem and I should return the phone / I still have 10 days to do so.
Then I've installed a different camera app called LG camera and surprise! Tap to focus in dark environment turns on the flash and the camera manages to focus also when I tap to take the picture the LED only turns on to .1 seconds and works normal.
Tried a version on Gcam and it doesn't work either..
I tried the following:
- cleared data and forced stop the main camera app
- factory reset
Thank you in advance for any ideas.
Camera flash
Hello, I also have the same problem with my op7pro I don't have a fix for it yet.
Does it work with the latest stable?

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.

ColorOS 12 crashes, hangs and reboots

Anyone else having terrible problems with their Find X2 Pro since installing ColorOS12?
The camera works maybe 1 time in 5, the others it loads and the horizon line moves, but the picture doesn't update and I can't take photos.
Other apps are regularly hanging or crashing back to launcher and the phone has rebooted itself twice
It's it possible to downgrade from 12 to 11? My phone was perfect before and now it's unreliable as hell.
Turning off the extra 3GB of RAM in storage (Developer options) appears to have fixed it!
I have experienced random freezing for a little while now, maybe since the last system update but possibly already since before that.
Another thing that happens is that swiping my home screen left or right does something completely different, and swiping from the top edge down to bring that quick menu also fails sometimes. These things were rare though, mostly it was random freezes that was bugging me.
Today it got so bad that I found this post.
I tried the 3GB option, the jury is still out. So far so good.
Also, I have a different Oppo than you: I have the Oppo Reno 5 5G.
I'll try to report back in a few days.
I have a problem with the autofocus in 4k30 video mode (and live HDR). It is cleary slower than on 4k60 mode and doesn't focus well.
Plus sometimes when i shoot 48MP mode with ultrawide lens i got this result :
