Has anyone else had this problem with camera application. I've tried restarting and resetting to default with no success.
It's the green camera problem .. theres a couple threads around squeezing it might help for awhile but most have to RMA to have it fixed

I have never seen this issue on STOCK, go to settings apps than to all on the bottom right find the camera and hit clear data.
This problem can appear, if any software using camera or camera stuff (like touch) .
Turn off all software (even if sit in background ,etc) that has ability to use any camera or camera features including facebook and try it again.
2 days ago my Camera app stopped working either through the hardware button or software all it does is play the opening app animation and return back to the previous screen. Ive tried soft and hard resets of the phone and now ive even reflashed it via NCS to no avail. Now at this point youd think it would be a hardware thing, but apps like "panorama" and "smart shoot" still work and so do all the other camera apps ive downloaded. Anyone managed to fix this?
You seem to be the only one whom has had this issue and reported it. So no, no fix as of now since you are alone on this one.
same here

same thing happened to my phone since yesterday and I've tried hard reset but nothing changes.. Camera only works through smartshoot and if I try to open it just using the original app, or use the camera button, it just won't open and turn back to the home screen

I have exactly the same problem. After 5 days of perfect use of everything, the phone overheated, drained completely within a couple of hours and now it has a permanent problem with the camera: either black screen when launching the camera app, or if it launches, pink stripes and frozen app after 10-15 seconds. It cannot be just a random problem on one device. I've seen the same description of the problem on various forums.
Has Nokia responded on this?
The funny thing is that I live in Greece, the device was bought during a trip abroad and it's not covered by warranty! Regarding Nokia's amazing support policy I have written details at my blog nextbeta.com.
(I'm not a smartphone user that cannot understand what is a bug and what is a hardware problem, 8 years MVP for Mobile Devices and founder of the Greek Mobillity Club in 2001...)
Have you flashed the newest ROM or an older version? Perhaps you might want to try it with the Release ROM to see if that fixes things. Aside from that I fear your only option is to turn it in at a service center and let them figure out what is wrong.
Given that the Flash rewrites the whole system it somehow has to be connected with the hardware.
So when i open up my camera app the screen in just black and i can see all the buttons on the app. I tried downloading a different camera app and still its just picking up a black screen. Anybody else ever have this issue or know of any possible solutions. Ive already tried restarting the phone...
For Example
Heres what im seeing.
What Rom are you on? Need some details. Best thing to do is revert to stock and see if it works. If it still doesn't...it's a hardware issue and need to get it replaced.
Sent from the "ONE" phone for me
Flashed a new rom issue solved. Thanks!
please someone help me i installed canvas4 hd custom rom on my device then i found that camera is not working it gives a error cant connect to the camera i reverted back to stock rom tgen found that camera app is missing. flashed the stock rom via sp flash tool still no camera app. but i can access camera through contacts app but its not working. but one day it worked suddenly for an hour after that no luck what to do

Me too, I opened up the board, and if I press hard on the camera connector part and open,it sometimes works, so I tried adding a little bit of padding behind it, so still it isn't working. Even the flashlight app is working so I think it might be a software or connector or mother board issue because sometimes the camera pens up fine,so definetly its a very mysterious problem. My camera actually stopped working while I was using Camera FV 5... While using te screen just turned white with some green lines,,, I thought it might be a bug and restarted the app.. But then i got the "cant connect to camera" error for the first,, from then it has continous..
I will try opening it up and try something again today..
Definetly its a software related prob.... My cam is now working
could you anyone advise why camera starts lagging after using it for 15-20mins.. Also i got overheating warning and post which device went off. EMUI 9. Anyone facing this issue ? is there a way to fix it. I tried resetting camera app and the phone as well...
