I am having this problem for a while now...my camera doesn't work.when i press the icon, camera application launches with the camera buttons and then with the small preview icon on the right side being black.The screen displays what is in front of the camera but the buttons are totally not functioning. If I wait for it, it then says "camera application not responding" then gives me the option to wait or force close.
-rebooting doesn't help
-clearing data doesn't help
-using another camera application (same result)
-The best solution that I came up with is reflashing ROM (wiping everything)
-if that doesnt work, reformatting SD card
sometimes it works..sometimes not
when fixed, it just runs for a couple of weeks then afterwards, the same thing happens again and I am getting tired of it.
So I would like to seek out your help now enlightened members of xda...please help me
PS..this happens on any kind of rom (oxygen and currently LEWA OS)
Anyone out there who can help me? anyone who experiences the same issues?
Do u have any kind of cell tracking application(like androidlost or something) installed on ur phone? Or any other app that uses camera?

The camera work on the official firmware? (V20E) When did you first notice this problem?
Typically, problems arise with the camera when changing kernel ... Try to flash the kernel from Franko

After Flashing Oxygen V2.6, this problem started after several days...was able to resolve thru reflashing rom wiping everything but after several days reoccured.
I am already using LEWAOS M7 and it happened to me twice now.

unknown sources is working it wont work at first boot ...
after first boot enable unknown source and reboot recovery ....
now reboot system again it will be working now
this happens because of defualtsettings.xml in system/etc
the problem is not APN, but baseband (I think).
Did he use the baseband fix or old sources?

Hi there! ROM looks awful, but I've found another problem. After flashing, and booting first time, gsm network doesn't worked. I've thought, that after quick setup, pin code request page will be shown, but not. Tried to restart phone, but still no gsm, cause no pin code request page again.

"ROM looks awful"? That's very nice of you to say (me being a fan of the sense ui)
This rom uses the new baseband. If you do not know what it is, you probably have the old baseband.
Maybe if I understand baseband differences between stock froyo and stock gb, and I've flashed cm7 nightlies over v20g, and nightlies worked, sense port should worked too.

bug
wifi and microphone please...
Some bugs that i found out
First of all i have to say that this rom looks amazing. the text is crisp and clear and is very smooth but there are lots of bugs in this rom.
Following is the list of the bugs :
1) As reported the camera and wifi does not work.
2) the phone takes a lot of time to boot. (i know the first boot takes a little time but even after that it takes more than needed time to bootup)
3) When your phone is locked and you press any hardware button to turn on the screen,the screen goes black and it's only when you touch the screen the lock screen shows up.
4) Also none of the hardware buttons have backlight when pressed.
5) The microphone does not work as well.
6) whatever settings are made it reverts back to what it was before. for example if you chance the brightness or set any ringtone or make other changes it reverts back to what it was before.
7) Also the date and time does not change even when you try to change it.
I have faith in the developer and i know soon a stable version of this rom will be out.
Thank you.
Nice work..when will you update it..I love HTC sense ui

Hi to everyone, im having some problems with miui camera, when i go to record camera it gets frozen and then i have an FC, anyone can help me?
Im using miui gb version.
Ask in Miui forums on their site. Much more likely to get answer/solution from someone who has/had a similar problem.

This is a common issue on the MIUI Roms,
2 options to rectify,
1) the thumpnails of your earlier Camera creating issiues just rename your DCIM folder,(DCIM-2 or somthing) and reboot.
2) use 'Camera ICS' from the market working without any issues,

CM7 NIGHTLY VERSION CWM FLASHABLE ROM.
I have flashed this CM7 NIGHTLY rom from CLOCKWORK MOD on my cm7 rom i was using.Everything seems to be okay with this rom.
Like the cm7 rom, it doesnt require additional google apps and ussd codes package.
Both packges seems to be included in this version.
Using these roms for 7days with not much of a problem.It gave force close error 2-3 times during application. but it seems stable still.Just like the cm7 rom.
i also tested miui rom which is v 2.4. it seems be much better than the 2.3(or may be lower) version earlier posted here in xda.Same as cm7 nightly, miui rom also doesnt require flashing googleapps and ussc codes packages.I reaaly dnt like miui at all.neither earlier one nor this one!!

I get this error "Can't connect to camera'
I tried using a 3rd party camera from play store, but still when I try to film, it freezes and 2 sec later it closes. when opening it, error.
I read somewhere that bootloader must be working good with rom? I don't wan't to brick my phone with messing around with odin.
Factory reset doesn't work, I always do a clean install on carbon rom update.
PS: I am using Dalvik runtime, maybe fix on ART?
I don't know how to fix, used rom & kernel in my signature.

if it works properly in ROM provided Camera App ??
if it works then try again installing app again..
if not then.. try different 4.4.2 ROM.. or ask in OP's thread if all users have this problem..??
if only you are having this problem then.. start from the scratch again.. and install ROM again by following steps provided in OP's post..
if still didn't work try in any other ROM or stock ROM..

If your ROM is based on CM, it's the ROM issue. Know for a loooooooooong time.

Billions of fixes have been implemented, but apparently non of them work. If u get lucky, it'll work. So I'll recommend reflashing till u get it to work.

hi sir. sorry forgot to include. i am just using stock rom. i tried installing that cyanogen app, but cant figure out on how to install a custom ROM, phone not supported,
So if you're on stock the cyanogen camera won't do the trick. I know it sounds redundant but have you restarted your phone or downloading a 3rd party camera?
