Someday I was using my camera on CM10 and accidentally got into the front camera, in which the rom bugs the camera. Ok, I reinstalled the rom and it was ok.
Other day, I did the same thing, but reinstalling didn't fixed it.
So I tried about 5 other roms and it still doesn't work.
Also tried the fix epinter and nothing.
try to use Atrix Camera Fix, you can download it form Atrix apps

Hi Folks,
I've had my Galaxy SII (i9100M - Canadian version, Virgin Mobile) for a while now.
I've had it rooted for the last 8 months, and about 3 months ago I started running the ICS betas. The camera all of this time has been working fine.
I was testing Simplistic rom (basically from the first release up until RC8 or whatever the last one was) and sometime in between that process my camera stopped working. I've since flashed CM9 using Odin several times, and still nothing. Recently I tried to flash back to one of Samsung's releases of ICS and still nothing.
Whenever I launch the camera I get a black screen with the camera controls. It just hangs if I try to take a pic.
I've searched around here and haven't found an answer -- any insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
two things you can maybe try,
have you tried clearing the app data on your camera?
also, have you tried a third party camera app like camera360?
it sounds like this is a problem with your hardware camera and not the app itself though so i am not sure if either of these approaches will work
Guys, I found a solution.
I flashed back to Gingerbread and used the Samsung Camera Update app that is on another thread in this forum. It updated the firmware and the camera started working.
The Camera Update app does not work on ICS... so it was a long and painful process, but worth it.
I reflashed CM9 after and the camera is still working. Odd! Just in case anyone else has this problem... here is a potential solution.
My evo 3d gsm x515m's camera just stopped working a month or 2 ago. It doesnt show the force close pop-up when i open the camera app, it just shows the camera symbol and then goes back to where i opened the app. I've tried different roms, kernels, wipes, etc. and nothing has worked so far. I dont know if the ics PG86IMG may be the culprit? i dont wanna try radios until i have some advice on if it is a hardware issue or software. Help please!!

Are you on GB or ICS?
Apps/all/camera/clear cache, then try opening.
If on GB, try the lower resolution amaze cam if above doesn't work.
What ROM are you running? I am on Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 and the camera does not work. I get the same thing you are experiencing. I am going to flash the 1920x1080 Amaze camera, hopefully this fixes the issue.
Ive already tried the amaze camera and clearing the camera cache, ive restored to a stock backup even and nothing different. As of right now i am on miui, so i dont think the camera would work either way but it didnt work on stock 2.3.4

Well sounds to me like hardware. There is a ribbon where the camera plugs into the motherboard. You can try setting it in again, finding parts craigslist/ebay, or taking back for warranty
So i've tried 2 different camera fixes but neither will completely fix the camera, this is using both the 7/20 builds of either rom. on cm10 it will try to take the pic and freeze on cm9 if i try to focus more than once itll go green and freeze.
i see some people have posted that their cameras are working fine. i was wondering if there was a diff fix than these two. thanks

In the past few ROMs I have had I think past ICS, my front camera has never worked. I can use the back one fine, but when I try to switch to the front one it just crashes and says camera has stopped working. The only way I can then reenter the camera app is to clear data in the settings.
I really want to use my front camera, but I'm not sure if it is from the ROMs or my front camera is actually broken. Can you guys please help me out?
You are going to have to actually do a little bit of reading in order to find the proper files as I am not going to pick back through the entire thread to find the proper links, but my wife has been running this rom for nearly a month.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2637943
There are a couple of patch files linked to inside the thread. There is a flicker patch as well as a camera patch. You will also want to flash uber kernel as well. After flashing the rom and gaps I booted the phone and set everything up for her, went back grabbed the patches and kernel, flashed the kernel and both patches then rebooted. After doing all of that her phone has been running smooth as silk with an occasional manual reboot everything seems to bee working great. Can't attest to the bluetooth stability as she never uses it but the camera works both pics and video front and back.
Update: #1 - I have been able to unlock the bootloader and reinstall MIUI. Unfortunately, neither of these procedures managed to fix the camera. I've also installed TWRP and wiped everything I possibly could, and yet, still no functionality from the camera. This is weird because I literally had no problems prior to trying out GCam.
I've had my Pocophone for about a year now. I really enjoy using it for pictures and videos. After seeing all the hype around the GCam port, I decided to try it for myself. After I installed an APK, I took a few pictures and all was working well. After a few hours, I opened the GCam app once more to take a new photo, and after which, it froze. I then tried the Stock Camera, and that also froze. I restarted my phone, and then opened both apps, and the camera refused to open.
I've tried the CID test, and it works until it gets to "Rear Dual Camera". The "Rear Sub Camera" does work, however, as does the front camera.
I've also performed a factory reset, but this has also rendered the camera unusable. Interestingly enough, after I restart the phone and open the camera app, it DOES work, but as soon as I shift to portrait mode, it then freezes and refuses to work again.
I really don't know what the GCam apk did.
Have u tried flashing the ROM again?.. This might help

No, I haven't. I've never flashed anything onto my Pocophone. It's completely stocked. I've been doing research on how to unlock the bootloader to try this method, however, I've made no progress with getting the bootloader to unlock. In the meantime, I've been trying other ways to fix it.
One version of Gcam is currently launching the camera, however, the stock app keeps freezing. This other version of Gcam also takes several seconds to switch between the front and rear cameras, so this I know it still isn't fixed properly.
Did you tried to flash a stock rom using fastboot method?
