Can I switch the main camera? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
My HTC M8's rear camera in on short cirtuit (I suppose, because as soon as I open it the image starts to vibe, and the phone makes a strange BZZZZ never heard before).
But my front camera works fine.
For some application, like Whatsapp Web or Google Cardboard, I need to scan a QR code... and it's impossible, because the rear camera can't focus, and I can't switch camera from the applications.
Is there any way to set the front camera as default one?
Thanks a lot!

P.S. I have tried the Coolcamera software and it enables the front camera its just that the view is 90º off set

do you mean to use the front camera as in the nokia phone? AFAIK we can do that in WM. CMIIW
I mean to use camera to take pictures like the main camera, because the front one is only for 3g calls. In the dual touch the front and the rear work with the camera software, (like nokia or anyother regular phone)

[Q] Archos 70it, third party camera apps don't work

Hello,
Camera applications, other then the stock camera app, fail to work.
They boot up just fine and show image appropriatly, but when taking a picture no image is saved. I have tested a few camera apps, particularly Vignette demo and Paper camera.
Paper camera: this one shows the shutter animation, but nothing is saved.
Vignette demo: application informs that a picture is taken and then freezes.
The stock camera application however saves the pictures just fine to the sd card,
Does anyone have any idea of how this problem could be solved?
Many thanks in advance
On my A32 the only other cam app i can get to work is fast burst, It gives you a few more options than stock. I have tried every other cam app i can find with no luck, i have noticed that the scanner now works in google shopper with the new firmware.

[Q] Change front camera as default camera

Hello
I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII, Android 4.3, rooted.
My Problem: I destroyed my back camera a few days ago. But i like to use WhatsApp Web... For WhatsApp Web is a QR-Code scan required but in the app i can't change to the front camera.
Is there any way to change android system values that WhatsApp thinks that the front camera is the back camera ? If i can use the front camera in WhatsApp i could scan the QR Code
Just replace the main camera, takes 5 minutes and costs £15 from eBay.

Camera Issue

I have camera issue. My front camera will not turn on. Neither the wide angle camera. Only 16 megapixel is working. But if I will install 3rd party application then wide angel camera will work but not the front facing camera. I am attaching photos to grasp the problem. I have H820. I can't upgrade it or restore to stock because there is no tot file available for it. I reset a lot of times and follow every instruction but still stuck with the issue. I am living in Dubai. I wish some of you will able to help me to solve this issue. If I will turn to front facing camera it will be like old VCR video. And if I will turn on wide angle camera in stock app then app will crash. Please need help to solve this issue.

[SEARCH] Camera app using wide and normal

Hi everyone,
I (ecological reason) bought a Fairphone 4.
It's really not what I expect from a phone so I am looking to update some apps.
The main issue I get is this one on Camera.
Fairphone 4 doesn't allow to record video from the wide angle camera... Yeah... WTF !!!
It seems to be described on the sepcs, but why ??? How a camera can be reduced to not recording video ?
My old LG G6 does it with wide camera.
Whatever, I tried to use other apps as Open Camera, HD Camera and others but I doesn't find a way to switch, even for picture mode, from the main camera to the wide one.
Do you have any idea of which app I may use ?
Thank you
buy that phone yesterday, have the same problem! By any chance, do you find some solution? Also i want to change from defalutOS to calyxos, but again - big issue inside camera.
