After upgrading 2.1 camera app doesn't work and the only way to close it force close or it says not available.
Any idea? Does anyone have the same problem?
No problems here, try a fix firmware with Sony Ericsson PC Companion.
If you not tried yet then try to re-flash your phone again.
I tried but the same...

Same here. Can't start Camera. It stays black for a while and then forces to
close.
No problems here on Rogers x10a firmware.
so what to do
Tried under Custom Rom 2.1 and now after downgrading to 1.6.
Now way. Cant get it work :S
Is it possible flashing caused a hardware problem with camera? (I think it's impossible) But why camera controller cannot work even after several reflash or software repair? Can somebody help with programmer background what to check? Or is it a serial fault (X10i)?
Anyone has problems with camera making some weird clicking noise after 2.1 upgrade? It happens while changing/opening options in the camera menu. seems like lens shifting or something, not very audible but was not there with 1.6

Yeah just the new auto focus... when your in the menu it doesn't have to keep focusing so disables that part resulting in a physical relaxation of the lense

Yes, like the guy above me said. It's just the new auto focus.
The new camera takes far better pictures, way faster as well. I haven't had any problems taking or saving HD video with a Class 2 microSD.
Oh, so you hear it on yours too ?
I though mine got broken or something I did not know there are physical elements in such a small camera that are able to literally shift and produce an audible noise! The strange thing tho is that the noise is produced while switching any options in the menu, like resolution, focus, picture mode etc, BUT the camera is active in background. Besides not all "clicks" are the same, the most loud one i get is when pressing the "picture wall" button in the lower right corner of the camera interface. Just wanna make sure it's like that on every devise

Hi
My droid x2 camera is not auto focussing
It seems the bug is mentioned here http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/motorola-droid-camera-autofocus-fixed-in-secrecy/
I had changed the date to a month back and the camera is autofocussing now.
I have the latest GB 2.3.4
Can someone please let me know if there is a fix for this.
Thanks
Yes, this is quite annoying. Reformatting works for me for a day or so then its messed up again.

Have you tried holding down the "Shutter" button for a second or two then releasing? It seems that this has worked for me in the past.
I know the camera on the CM7 ROM works great! Has video camera, zooming features, different white balance features, self-timer, etc etc etc all built-in to the camera app.
You can read more about it at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1442803
Enjoy!
So I'm a big fan of all the alternatives like Camera360 and Vignette, but somehow when GB came along, everytime I install one the app is able to run until you actually try and shoot a photo. Whether its focusing or shooting, hard button or screen tappin, the application freezes and the phone says 'camera not available' when you try it with the stock camera app. Theonly way I found effective out of it is a restart.
Is this normal? I have tried reinstalling the stock camera app but the phone won't allow me to.
Its as if the X10 gets jealous of the camera alternative and shuts down the hardware altogether.

Hi folks,
I have a haipad i9300 mtk 6577 4 days ago the camera start to make trouble. Sometime just show black screen and after ask for a force close.
I tried to delete the old camera apk and installa brand new...I give to JB 4.2 camera a try to see if it works...nothing still the same. Black screen and after several touch ask for a force close. I guess is not an hardware problem because sometimes it works...what can I do?
I notice if I press several time and I force close then the camera app cannot connect to camera. This happen 4 or 5 times...then if I am very lucky the camera rebirth and start working again...It seems there is a kind of problem between the app camera and the camera hardware...because every camera app have the same issue, so maybe the problema is after...maybe some libs or something like that...any idea?
Odd update...I have a torchlight app with its widget. I notice the torchlight has the same issues of the camera. In fact it freezes and often I need to force close. The strange thing is if you turn on or turn off after few timers you can heard a kind of "click"...the same click you heard when you activate the camera...after that if you turn on the camera it is working. So I guess the torchlight and the camera are linked in some way. Of course I try to unistall the torchlight app...nothing the camera still not working.
Any ideas?
I'm not expect ,but
if something using start using camera (for example torch widget app) then other program cannot access to camera,so if program was not design for that case it will crash. (I know this as When I writing my app i spotted the same problem as You. ).
So i guess something using camera and that cause your problems.Try to find how many programs/services use camera and close all of them and then check/
That's my thought...in fact I'm pretty sure something is bothering the camera app...but...I did an hard reset, so a clean system, but the camera still freeze so I assume is not an application I installed. How can I check which application is accessing the camera?

It seems that i /m facing the same problem here. I'm running the AEROM v5 and out of the sudden the camera stopped working, the flash as well. Every camera app that i used only opens the front camera and i cant even use the LED light as a torch. I contacted the seller and suggested a factory reset , i did it with no success. i think that it might be a "missing driver". I do not know a lot apart from flashing roms, recovery etc. Trying to work it through.
Did you try to open the cover and check if the camera is connected properly at the board?
Sounds like hardware.. Any other experiencing this?

It is a hardware matter , at least for me
In snapchat it almost sounds like a vibration of the autofocus continuously trying to focus in and out. It never really gets a proper focus. Even in regular camera. Any ideas how to fix this without getting an exchange?

can't offer any help, but will add I have the same problem from time to time. I have yet had it happen in the camera app. I see the problem in SnapChat and another app I use to scan barcodes. I normally force stop the app and try again.
