Hello everyone As I tried to take a picture yesterday, only front camera was working. No buttons to change to rear camera were on screen. Also, torch option is unavailable.(no problem with torch through 3rd party app though). I cleared cache data and restarted the phone multiple times. No luck. As it's impossible to connect my elephone p9000 to a pc, I don't know what to do. I installed a few 3rd party camera apps, but since they use phone's camera, nothing happened. Please help!!
Same here
Hi,
I have been facing the same issue since Saturday 10th as well. I have a P9000E.
Tried a factory reset, but no success.

My Samsung Galaxy SII had been working fine, no issues at all until two days ago I went to take a picture and the camera won’t work, the camera screen is black and hanged up when I press to take a picture for a while then I just keep getting some error messages like force close, and media server not responding. I've tried to clear the cash and data for the camera application but nothing happened, I wiped the cash from the recovery mode without any success.
I tried other apps using camera some of the not working at all, and some recording some videos with the black screen on but after finishing recording it showed me what recorded but even this happened after long time of waiting for the app to do recording.
I tried to do the test for the camera using the code *#0*# for the back and front cam but get the error message of "activity factory test not responding (wait or Close)" then Camera failed. I searched over the web but most of those who had the same problem mentioned that they did factory reset with no luck.
On which Rom, Android version, Kernel are you? Recently installed gapps? Some day I had problems with the camera after flashing gapps.

hi all
i bought a new xolo q 1000s just before a week. i remember i had checked the rear camera from the shop. after four or five days, when i tried to use the camera for the first time, it shows only the front camera, no option anywhere to shift to back camera. i tried a lot, installed other camera apps to get the back camera, but i didn't get it. then i did factory reset, after that the camera app itself went missing. my phone is not rooted. but no camera app is seen. installed other apps. they shows only front camera. i went to settings>apps and reset app settings, no use. when i tried to shift camera in cymera app, it said you have no front camera! meantime showing the front camera, and being unable to use the back one. when tried flash light app it says you have no flash light, but my mobile has one. tried factory reset four times, through settings menu and pressing home+ power+ volume up. same story!
so please help me, as i bought the mobile from india, and now in Dubai, unable to go back soon to india to approach a customer care center.
Thanks in advance
Hello,
My camera suddenly stopped working :[
I have cm11, and when I try to launch the app, it says "can't connect to the camera".
I tried rebooting, tried to factory restore, tried different apps, still nothing :|
Is there way to check that the camera is connected? maybe for some reason it disconnected
from the motherboard?
Flash stock firmware and factory reset, if still the same then reconnect/replace the camera module. I replaced mine recently, it took me 10 minutes and cost £5.
So after everything else didn't work,
decided to take apart the phone.
Turned out that the camera was disconnected as I thought,
Have no Idea how that happened, the phone did fall few days ago,
not that hard though...
Anyway works now, just the resolution settings for the back cam are the same
as for the front one... max resolution is 1.9mp :\
Will try to flash again...
Today I noticed that my phone wasn't recognizing my face ( I usually use Smart Lock trusted face) and I opened the camera app to see what's up. What I found was that the button to change to the front cam was completely gone. I then tried snapchat, which also couldn't open the front cam. I even tried going through the service menu -> service tests -> front camera but once again, nothing happened. No amount of reboots seems to help, so yeah... any suggestions?
possibly a hardware issue/malfunction > try a factory reset after a backup to rule out software problems.
Your phone must be physically broken. Is its charge port looser or tighter than before?
I was using the camera app and the front camera and I was moving around the phone and noticed these vertical streaks on the screen, only in front facing camera mode. It also does this in snapchat.
I have restarted my phone, reset the app data and cleared the cache.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Just noticed this happens to me too. Especially when the front camera facing bright sky
Hey so I actually returned my phone showed it to them and they gave me a new one. It is not software related (my issue) and was a loose connection it seemed. Try to return it and get a new one. Check in the store to see if it does the same thing.
