Camera crahses - Verizon LG V10

One of the best parts of the v10 is the camera, after I rooted the camera now randomly crashes, and i cannot open it, snapchat, twitter, anwhere.
Does anyone know what couls be the issue, I can post any logs you might need to diagnose

You've most likely already tried this, but have you tried force stopping the camera app and clearing the data and cache? If you download another camera app, like Google Camera, does it crash too?

Yep that dkesnt work, and when i open a different camera app it says it cant reach the camera.
This all started happening after I stsrted messing witht the mixer_paths.xml file, but that shouldnt affect it since that deals only with audio and I only played with the DAC volume

My front facing camera started crashing before I rooted. Nothing including factory reset has fixed it . Guessing it's a hardware issue. I'm not on marshmallow yet

Try factory reseting then flashing the kdz again. The camera uses a lot of audio drivers for video recording.

[Q] camera not work in ICS cm9 alpha beta :(

I download Cm9 beta with camera and camera work but after 15 min the camera not work i don't know why ?? i want fix it please if any body know to solve this problem tell me .. im waiting
Is it coming back with an error "cannot connect to camera"? if it is the go to settings - manage apps - camera - and force stop and clear data
after you do what dude^ said, try downloading a third party camera app from the market. not saying it will fix the issue your having but ive noticed on roms with known camera issues (only as long as its listed that camera has been "fixed") sometimes a third party camera will give better results than stock. my personal favorite is "magix camera MX" its free on the market and is very user friendly. i know the most popular one is "camera ZOOM FX" but i pirated it just to test it, and i didnt like it at all.

[Q] camera sometimes freeze

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

Camera error, Camera unavailable error.

Hi,
I am using LG V30+ (LG-H930DS) past one year. For past two months, my default camera app stopped working. I have tried with restarting the mobile, clearing the data and cache, force stopped the app also. Nothing works. I am receiving the following error
"Camera Error;Camera unavailable"
Also in other camera applications the selfie cam is not opening. If I select the change camera option to take photo in front camera, its redirecting again to rear camera. I am unable to open the camera through applications like WhatsApp also. Even face detection is not working.
I haven't dropped my mobile or damaged by any other means like water also.
So can anyone of the members in our forum could help to rectify this error?
My mobile IS currently running in May 1 2019 security patch. Software version is V20f-IND-XX.

1) Perhaps there's a conflict:
"Camera Error;Camera unavailable"
"Also in other camera applications the selfie cam is not opening".
That first error usually means something else is using the camera. Uninstall the other camera applications to test. You can always re-install later.
Back when I had Moto Maxx XT1225 and custom ROM, I ended up with two Galleries and my camera would crash when I tried to use it. I ended up having to freeze one of the Galleries in Titanium Backup.
If you have multiple camera apps, it's possible one of them is always running in the background or something which prevents the others from using the camera. Just a suggestion to uninstall them, temporarily go back to stock LG camera only and see if that solves the issue. Then you can add them back one by one, rebooting in between, see if there's a conflict again (if that's the reason).

2) Yeah, could be hardware failure. In one instance, someone's selfie camera was not working -- wouldn't open. But turns out the problem was actually the rear camera. They had to REPLACE THE REAR CAMERA and then the selfie camera worked. The rear camera was faulty and wouldn't switch to the selfie camera.
This camera error, camera unavailable just happened to me. This is the 2nd time its happened and rhe first time i had to do a complete factory reset to restore my camera function....i didnt know what caused it then but it happened again and I think I know what may have caused it.
So this time just like last time I had my SD card filled with photos mounted and taking photos with this new phone created a 2nd "camera" folder.
I moved all the photos out of that folder into my existing SD card "camera" named folder and this inadvertently deleted my newly created LG "camera" folder...
I noticed my next time I went to take a pic I got the error....im thinking its related? Any weight to that? How do it restore or create that folder again...? To check before im forced to factor restore again??
Thank you!

stock camera keeps stopping

Hello,
I recently got a mi a3.
Today the stock camera ''keeps stopping'' , I can still use open camera and Google camera redmi note 7 port by BSG. I installed the last update with 5 July security patch yesterday maybe it's linked.
Does anyone have the same problem ?
Does anyone know if we can use the wide angle camera with an other app ?
I don't have that kind of issues on latest security updates...stock camera work fine here...try clearing stock camera data and cache first...

I already tried that :/ Even with safe reboot it doesn't work.
I'm going to factory reset.
I'm having the same issue. Also, the camera is very laggy, whenever I click a photo the camera takes 1 or 2 seconds to respond.

Yaaaaay It worked perfectly. Tnxxxxx
Just open settings -> search "Usage access" -> tap on the result -> choose "usage access" from list -> allow camera. DONE
(It's suspicious why camera needs usage access tho!!!!)
