I have the moto g 2nd gen dual sim.
For some reason when i put custom roms on, only the fron camera worked ? So i put stock firmware back on and still the camera is not working, ive tried factory reset, also tried updating through the play store etc etc, still cant find what the problem might be.
Also no little icon on screen to switch between front and back (back being selfie mode!!)
I have the same problem...even after installing CM12, the problem remains.
Same here, I have lollipop 5.02 stock on an XT1064. No selfie camera available. I swear it was there when I was on 4.4.4.
I downloaded an app called "Z-Device Test" and it says there is no secondary camera present.
I've had LP since the soak test and just noticed this now, so I guess I won't miss it.

Got a strange issue here. My camera was working fine on JB (stock rom & also on KnoxRaid 2.6). After the kitkat v2 release of Knoxraid I decided to give it a try. Everything is perfect except whenever I open the camera I get "Warning - Camera Failed". I restored back to mj5 thinking it was maybe a hardware thing but no, the camera works perfectly on stock mj5. So I decided to test Knoxraid 2.6 (non kitkat version) and again, camera work fine. I have asked Drakeymcmb what he thinks about the issue, but I think it has even him stumped. He suggested I try the other kitkat rom leaked by designgears. So again I restored back to mj5 and then tried the designgears leak. No luck, camera failed. I have wiped my internal memory and tried everything I can think of. I am hoping maybe someone has run into this issue and knows a fix?? Please help!! Thanks!
Not having any camera failing, but I'm experiencing a pretty substantial lag after taking a photo.
When i hit the shutter button, my screen will say "Processing". If the camera moves AT ALL before the "processing" is done, the picture will be blurry -it almost looks like I've moved the camera during exposure.
Anyone else having this problem?

I notice that as well. I just turn the smart stabilization off and problem solved. Turn it back on when you wanna take pic in the dim light situation and be prepare to hold the phone still.

That's a great tip. I'm going to try that.

Were really talking about 2 completely different issues here. I wish my problem was that the camera was too slow, but mine will not load at all...
Hello everybody.
I have been having a strange issure with my i9295's camera, and thought I'd get some feedback. For a long time I used the 4.2.2 rooted firmware and everything was fine, but then I broke the screen and replaced it, and decided to try using custom ROMs.
Now, I'm not sure if it is related to me taking the thing apart and putting it back together, or just from using custom ROMs, but the issue seems too convenient to happen on three different versions, with three different stock camera apps.
My problem is now, that whichever stock camera app I try to use, the phone will freeze for 4-5 seconds when taking a photo, and will completely freeze and make the camera inaccessible to any app until I restart if I try to shoot using HDR. I tried some random 4.42 version, Paranoid 4.4.4 and now CM12 5.0. They all had a different type or version of the camera, but all the same issue. Yet I have no issues using CameraZoom FX. I'd just like to be able to use the stock app for it's features and speed.
Is a non-working stock camera a known issue, is it a convenient software bug that happened to be in the exact 3 roms I used, or is there a possibility that I damaged the camera module when I disassembled?
Thanks in advance .
Hello, I recently bought the "Google Cardboard" and I noticed that all apps I tried were shaking a lot (Even if I just leave the phone on the table). It seems to be an Gyroscope issue.
Noticed the same in Google Camera (360ยบ Picture Mode). It doesn't happen in Google Street View as it seems to apply some kind of filtering. Is there any fix for this?
I've been told that the Samsung Phones doesn't suffer from that kind of shaking
Is there any way to calibrate the Gyroscope? Or at least to apply some kind of shaking filter globally to all apps?
Can somebody please confirm if they have the same issue (And if this issue has been fixed on Android L)? [I'm on Android KitKat]
Greetings.

I have the same problem.
Interface of Google cardboard is very shaky.
Google camera's lens blur doesn't work for me; it says device moved too quickly whereas i didn't even move it a cm. (Kitkat)
Everyone should have this problem I think so.
I think the gyroscope is not calibrated correctly

Fixed? Where? In Android Lolipop?
I have Moto G 2014 European version so I still haven't received the Update.
Or is there some other fix? I'm very interested in this.
Okay that message was because a thought this was solved. Anyways it works on lollipop very well. Its very steady but if i try to hold steady it shakes a little. On KitKat my gyroscope reacted very sensitive (slightest movement even registers) So my suggestion is maybe use lollipop? or try this app: A thread about how to recalibrate the gyroscope sensor
Anways hope it works wish you much lucky

I am using lollipop on my moto g 2014, and videos are still shaky!

I'm having the same problem. Mine was working, but I flashed a new ROM and it stopped. I deleted that ROM and went back to stock, but the problem is still there.
When I start moving left, the phone thinks I'm moving right and vice-versa. It hardly detects any movement, even if I do a full 360 rotation.
I am also unable to view VR photos in Google Cardboard correctly. This is really frustrating and I have no idea how to fix it.
Have you had any luck?
I found the same, infuriating problem in all the ROMs I tried.
I read in another thread (possibly another forum, I can't remember now) a post from a Moto dev who acknowledged the issue and stated they would fix it in the next update. I installed the latest 6.0 soak test and the first thing I checked was the gyro, which appears to have been fixed.
Google cardboard runs as smooth as butter, with no shaking or anything.
In CM13 devs have fixed the sensors also added some new ones.
gyroscope is working correctly on CM13 too
Ok, the rear camera doesn't open. I can't switch to it in the camera app or snapchat etc. Flash doesn't work either, and if I do the "V" gesture for flash when the phone is locked, it restarts. I have:
* Cleared cache/data
* Disabled and re-enabled the app.
* Dirty flashed OOS 4.1.7 multiple times and have also flashed Franko's Kernel which I normally use (currently running stock kernel though).
* Google camera app multiple times. (had this before too, then I deleted it after this camera problem arose)
Not sure if relevant but TWRP has been giving me some error I haven't been able to fix for some time, and can't delete the file that it says it can't open (through twrp itself or cmd+adb) . Relevant SS attached.
Thanks.
You may want to try to flash the phone using the unbrick tutorial. Make sure you have a backup of internal memory
Hmm, I haven't tried that. I just did a clean install with no success. I deleted everything except USB OTG from TWRP. This has become much harder to fix than it should be . I didn't even do anything to set it off, I was in snapchat and took a pic and then it stopped and the rear camera/flash haven't worked since.
Just to update, I just tried a clean install of NLOS Lineage OS and the rear camera/flash still didn't work. Also, if I try to take any type of video with front camera the phone says "Low memory, adjust the picture resolution or delete some files" even though there's only 3.3 GB of space used.
Also, after a clean flash and wipe of everything the error reported by TWRP no longer exists. So that wasn't what was causing the problem.
Just used the unbrick tutorial. It worked perfectly however the problem still persists and remains unchanged. Anyone have any other ideas?
After some deep diving through forums I decided to use the phone's inbuilt hardware tests, in particular *#808#, as the camera test given by dialing *#*#34971539#*#* doesn't work. Firstly, the flash works through the hardware test (although quick settings still doesn't). The "foolproof camera test" gives BackCamera PASS and FrontCamera Fail. This makes sense as when I go to the individual tests the "backcamera" shows the front camera image, while the "frontcamera" just says "cannot open camera". The PDAF/Cam_EEPROM info test says "FAIL Qualcomm", which I believe is the camera firmware not working. The storage test says "sdcard is unavailable" which I assume is why the camera isn't allowing me to record any video through the selfie camera and says "Low memory".
In summary, how do I fix the camera firmware problem and the sd card error?
RMA your phone, hardware fault.
Ok Thanks.
So there is no way to update/fix the firmware problem?

No.
P.S. "Thanks" button is for thanking, by the way. Use it in the future on this forum, whenever somebody helps you.
Im having the same problem on my one plus 3...did u find any solutions??? if yes plz lemme know.
I haven't found a solution.i replaced both The front and back camera and even played with old/new cameras in different configuration (old front + new back / new front+old back / no front + new or old back and so on) varying the result from "Back camera pass/Front camera fail to both Fail ) .the funny thing Is that if you just remove back camera and do the diagnostic menu *#808# > foolproof camera test it still says back camera pass
I have the same problem... And my camera before of this beta worked awesome... Beta 24 **** our phones...
Experiencing the same problem with the front (away) facing camera and the flashlight.
Same Problem for me since the latest official Beta. Ich tried resetting and reflashing the Phone with the last official stable rom. Did not help.
I think I solved this. I let the phone cool down then i powered it off. I let it cool down a bit again and then booted it back up. The camera and FL work.
It seems that this happends when the phone gets heated, at least in my case.
I have the same problem, camera was working fine yesterday. Foolproof camera test shows front camera fail. But the front camera works
So this randomly started happening the other day, whenever I try and open my camera through any method, double tap power, use the app, from the lockscreen etc... it loads than says "Warning: Camera Failed" and there' an OK button that exit's the app. I've tried everything I've found online, factory reset twice, wiped cache partition, and safe mode. It also doesn't work with other camera apps. Another thing I've noticed is that the flashlight is highlighted with a light blue in quick settings but you can't turn it off or on, same with NFC. I didn't drop it or anything, I also bought it used and when I got on Samsung support the person said that they couldn't find the IMEI in their system so it's probably not available for service. Any suggestions? The only idea that I have left is that one of the third party camera apps that I downloaded said something about the camera being in use by another application, any possibility this is actually correct and I can find out what's using it? Other than that I really have no ideas
Did you dropped your phone? There's a possibility that the camera cable got disconnected form the mainboard
try the camera without your sd card. I had same issue on s7, caused by faulty sd card

I didn't drop it but I'm thinking this might be the case somehow as much as I don't want to admit it. Samsung support (however useless they were) were pretty adamant that it was a software issue.
This is becoming a widespread issue:

This may have been caused by the CRHA update that added AR Emoji and Super Slow-mo:

1.*#34971539# Do you get a menu? and is the phone to cam FW Write greyed out?
2.*#0*# Mega cam test works fine?
This issue is so strange, I have note 8 with same problem when phone is on full Stock Rom even *#0*# cam test fails reads 0 cam. However when I installed Combination Rom (Factory Binary) The camera/flash works fine in the *#0*# and even in more extensive testing menus(Its stock in combination ROM or you can use Info phone Sam app), But I don't know how to flash FW for cameras , since the options are greyed out , I believe I have to place camera FW files (get them from system image?) in a certain folder in root directory(using root explorer) then initiating *#34971539# to enable Phone ---> Cam write, anyone who had this done successfully or experimenting too, your input is appreciated.
Note: When I flash stock rom back, the same problem occurs.
