Trying to keep the story short:
I, by mistake, deleted the whole internal storage of the mobile. When I connected it to the computer, all I saw was some folders with strange and long names like /(&^+'(^&FSG%('!645416+'. Of course not this, you got the idea. Then I kinda formatted the storage, and was left alone with TWRP.
Ever since, my wide angle and front cameras don't work. I reverted to stock Xiaomi ROM an hour ago, yet it was also problematic: While the program said it is still being flashed, the mobile rebooted. Still, now I am on stock ROM, maybe with limited "fix", and with stock ROM I cannot use these two cameras as well.
Before reverting to stock ROM, I tried,
Different custom ROMs (including Paranoid Android, Pixel Experience, LineageOS, and crDroid). The issue was not solved with any.
Permissiver, hoping that it is a permission issue. Yet nothing changed.
trCam to see if it is because of the "number" that the apps try to connect to the cams. Again no luck.
I checked with Camera2API, and it shows only two cams (back main and front). It is okay, I am told, yet am unsure.
Strangely while these two don't work, macro does work - both in stock camera and GCam. I'd prefer no macro but front and wide but it doesn't ask me.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance for your replies - if there'll be any.

i noticed a few times when i either make a call or answer one the microphone just doesn't work - it doesn't happen all the time, sp i assumed it would either be a network or sim card issue. however, i have another phone on the same network (an android phone) which never has the same glitch.
i'd since sent my lumia back to resolve a camera quality issue (which they fixed), but the mic glitch happened again. i know i'll have to send it back for repair again, i was just wondering if this has happened to anybody else?
on a good note, the phone came back with a much MUCH improved camera (prior, the pictures taken on auto were all yellow and badly focused, unless i played about with specific settings. the battery was also much improved, even after the update (which lead me to believe a certain weather app was the cause, as i haven't redownloaded that app after receiving back the phone)
I have problem with mic too (actually my Mom ;>)
Phone was sent to repair three times, and nothing...
There is more about this in topic I made:

I think I must record call with my mom and then play it to them, because they say all is good (but with shi**y old SE everything is great, and signal is worse than in this SE...)
Same problem here, how did u get this fixed?
Guys, first of all great forum, excellect tools (like entons rootkit for A71 acer tablet) and splendid advices on many problems. I´m confident to find one for my current problem. If this is the wrong thread, please excuse but I haven´t found one for the Acer A71, so I went to the Android-Thread.
Okay, here´s what happened: I have a rooted (Entons rootkit) A71. Worked perfect for month now. Yesterday I unplugges it after charging. When I switched it on, the screen showed inverted colours. When I try to look at a picture or to watch a video, everything is inerted, too. . I allready unrooted it, made a factory reset, wiped the cache. I have digged into tons of threads in different forums. All that I have found was, that there is a switch you can find in accessability for changing from inverted to normal and back. But this one I do not find on my tablet. I ´m desperate now since I use my tablet for reading (which is still possible), for typing (which is no longer possible) and for videos (which is not longer possible). What to do now?
Datas: Acer iconia B1-A71, Android 4.1.2, Build Acer_AV051_B1-A71_1.25800_WW_GEN1, Image:Acer_AV051_B1-A71_RV05RC05_WW_GEN1, Image-P/N: FM.NLCAO.01Y, Kernel 3.4.0
Would be greatful for any answer.
Thanks a lot in advance.
I have just received this same tablet to repair with the same problem.
Mine would seem to have a damaged screen as its even inverted when in Recovery mode.
Maybe this is the same with you?
A quick google shows a handful of people with the same problem.
The device has some really poor design with the ribbon that connects the screen as some components rest against the quite flexible back cover.
So either one of these tiny components has been damaged or the device dropped and the screen has actually cracked along one of the edges.
What a pity the "invert colors" option is not enabled in the settings app as manually inverted images display fine.
If this was a high end device i'd unlock it and install a custom ROM and have a look into enabling colour inversion somehow but alas i'm not sure this little sucker is worth my time especially as the battery is on its way out now too.
Good Luck.
[EDIT] SOLUTION; it would seem my hunch regarding the crap placement of components on the screens ribbon cable was accurate.

(feel free to do a better job than i did haha)
It works!
Normskilight thank you very much. It works perfectly!!. I could fix my tablet. For my it was a kind of miracle, jaja.
Thank you again!
Well guys, my english is really bad so, i pasted the text what i posted in htcmania translated with google translate.
"First of all I must clarify that I am fully co desperate ... mostly because of not knowing what the **** is wrong with this phone.
I'm going to summarize everything.
A few weeks ago my mother told me that your screen is not rotated, then got into the menu of Samsung (* # 0 * #) to check that it was not a failure of the sensors and indeed it was, or seemed to be.
So far, all sensor data threw least the magnetometer and accelerometer. I tried everything, I integrate mobile disarmament, pass a neodymium magnet plate by carefully etc. Everything to do with the unit did. There was no other option for these sensors are damaged and most likely they were to touch plate change. Finally the phone could use so I will pay my S3 (which works perfectly) to my mother I stay with this as he gathered the money to buy a plate and change it.
Days later I started to lose my job ROM and the install CM12.1 got everything perfect and when you start the phone and turn perfectly broken screen, I was shocked, the first thing I thought is that perhaps CM12 using the front camera or other sensor to rotate the device, in order to assure lower the app CPU-Z to check the sensors and I find that the accelerometer data perfectly cast, lower Sensor Kinetics to make it a fabulous test and walked the other hand the magnetometer (compass) He never responded.
I thought, "Well I hit and walked out"
But it was not so fortunate who had since returning to Stock (4.3) I meet who do not respond, but I get confused the next day back to my job and under various Roms to try in my home-based CM10, 10.1 , 10.2, 11, 12.1 and a pair based on stock. Well. The accelerometer only I worked in 3 Roms, the 3 based on CM12.1.
And here most of my questions arises.
You likely they are to be a problem Soft?
If it were, returning to a stock should solve tried 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.3 and nothing.
But on the other hand I think if directly Hardware not work at all, that is because Lollipop works and not lower?
I want to clarify that it is no coincidence that works in Cm12.1 since I reinstalled and reinstalled and perfect furula (only the accelerometer)
You think? There is a possibility that there may be some partition where deleted files are communicating sensors? If so, I have possibilities to operate the accelerometer in all Roms and recover the magnetometer restoring those files?
HELP PLEASE NO LONGER DO BOYS."
The sensors only works in Roms based on CM12.1 (5.1.1)
I could run only the accelerometer in that roms, magnetometer never responded
How is posibble what the sensors works in CM Roms and not in Stock roms? Damn guys, I'll set fire to this phone.
Hello everyone,
I finally received my Redmi Note 2 after a long wait, and to my surprise I've discovered there's a serious malfunction with the camera focus.
I just can't seem to get a decent image when shooting up close (10-50cm range), everything comes out blurry and unclear.
I tried shooting with/without flash, playing with settings, switching scene modes etc.. nothing helped, the camera just doesn't focus!
I've taken some shots from several distances and compared it with my Meizu MX4, here are the results:
**Please enlarge to see the difference**
Edit:
Sadly I can't embed any images here as I'm a new member on xda, so here are the images on another forum (copy & paste to your address bar):

Flash one of the normal ROMs, like EU 7.1.3.0. If the problem will be again, then your camera is broken.
Update:
I updated from version 7.0 to 7.2 and the problem still persists.
Any advice on what to do next?
I would try flashing a custom ROM like BULEs CM 12.1, if the problem even then still persists there is something wrong with your camera. Or don't do it if you have warranty go to your supplier and check with him. Best of luck.
Hi! I just brought a new Z5C from Aliexpress. Everything works other than the Camera app. The autofocus doesn't work and the Camera doesn't take any pics or videos. I contact Sony support and did everything they suggested, nothing worked! I installed VSCO app and I could take pics with it but autofocus still doesn't work. I browsed the net and found that ome other users are having same problems. Will installing a custom ROM or LINeage OS solve my problems. As I understand its a firmware issue. But I really need a step by step guide to unlocking, TWRP? and installing another OS
. thanks
never heard of this b4 its original E5823 ver?
anywayz with my experience , always original firmware is best fit to camera app especially with sony's phones
if it aint fake one, it look like faulty cam hardware , ask for replace\ refund
