[Strange]Your camera has been disabled by your administrator. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am getting error- "Your camera has been disabled by your administrator" -When I open Default Camera App.
It was working fine but now suddenly showing error.
Camera in all other Apps with camera permission(Like Whatsapp) is Blank (Black) Screen.
How can "Administrator" disable my camera if there is no Administrator enabled on my phone.
My phone is not organization managed.
How is it possible. I am unable to remove that restriction.
Can anyone help me?
{please don't say-"Factory Reset".:crying::crying::crying:}
_________________________________________
Current Device Info:-
Motorola One Power (Chef)
Android 10 (Stock ROM-Locked Bootloader)
NO ROOT
NO Device Administrator enabled
NO Work profile enabled
NO 2nd User Profile
I have Shizuku App Installed.
_________________________________________
Already Tried to solve the problem but "Failed":-
1. Reboot
2. Booted into Safe Mode. {Tested camera}
3. Checked that all All Device Admins are disabled.
4. Installed work profile and then uninstalled (Shelter).{Also tested camera inside work profile}.
5. Added Guest user and New admin user and Then removed it.{Also tested camera inside both users}.
6. Cleared data of camera app / checked permission

Just disable ITPOLICY then re-try

Turns out to be "Sensors Off" flag being on in quick settings which also disables camera (being a sensor).

Moto E LTE stuck in "just a sec" screen of "SetupWizardTestActivity"

Moto E LTE stuck in "just a sec" screen of "SetupWizardTestActivity"
Moto E LTE stuck in "just a sec" screen of "SetupWizardTestActivity" :crying:
1) Any suggestion on how to cancel/escape this "first time init" application so that i can reach the settings and give the required permission to this app.
2) If above not possible then any other suggestion to get back phone in working condition without factory reset/wipe from recovery.
*Apps are still working in background , i am getting notification sound and pushbullet notification on desktop
*tried the cache cleaning from recovery. it took quite some time but after reboot also the stuck in same situation
*Completely stock phone. bootloader unlock and root not done. since bootloader unlock wipes the device i do not want to do it at the moment.
*I have installed moto usb drivers and SDK to execute adb but phone is not visible with 'adb devices' command.
* apps are excuting in background since i am getting pushbullet update of phone notifications on desktop browser but the first time setup app has captured the screen and does not alow any other activity from touchscreen.
* for some reason the Paytm app also runs at startup and runs on top of "SetupWizardTestActivity" app but only thing i can do is back soft button till it exits. cant open notification
Context and back story
I triggered the "home button not working, empty notification" of lollipop/marshmallow as detailed in the following post on my Moto E 2015 LTE surnia by trying to manage space by using the migrate data option in storage. it tried to perform migrate in opposite direction i.e. from sdcard to internal and ran out of space mid operation probably.

After this the behavior was as specified in above issue posting. home button not working (i could reach home screen by using back key till all open application as closed.), empty notification drawer, not able to reach the quick shortcuts in notification area etc.
So I tried thought some space issue
A) so i installed a few apps and cleared data of chrome, play books etc. to free up 500mb.
still same home button issue
B) then i thought it is some notification permission issue and checked various options in notification option in setting.
still no change
C) then i thought some other permission issue. So in the apps option in setting i reset the apps permission to factory. (dont remember exact menu option but it was in the 3 dots option on top right in apps setting). it gave a warning that all permissions will be reset to factory for apps
after this all apps lost all permissions and everything was asking permission when app was started. e.g. data manager app wanted permission to access data, sms app wanted sms access and so on.
**This will be one main reason for my issue at the end.**
After that I searched the issue and found above link.
so i tried the guest user login and cancel from that and the notification drawer got recovered. it was showing app notifications for whatsapp, SMS etc.
but home soft button was still *not* working
Since i haven't done any bootloader unlock and root operation on this phone i was not confident of the adb command success since it mentioned in one post that it required 'su'
So i tried Nova launcher workaround to invoke 'SetupWizardTestActivity' and it did execute asking me for
Now the initial factory inti app is running and stuck in following loop
language->sim select-> wifi login-> \
/-----------------------------------|
->privacy option->|software update check->-\
|------------------------------------------|
|-> account added -> "just a sec" ---------^
it hangs and crashes at the saving "just a sec" screen and goes back to "Account added" screen
This is due to the permission issue i created in step "C" of permission reset explained above.

Please if someone can help with ideas and suggestions to kill the fitst time installation app. :fingers-crossed:
NOTE. im new to Moto E but have been playing around with my older phones samsung s2, lg g2 and changing roms and trying out various options like CM, AOKP res remix etc.
any ideas on how to unset the flag that causes this first time installation screen to run at bootup
so apparently the bootloader unlock requires us to have a "" toggle set from devleoper option.
but we dont have a phone booting into a state that allows this toggle to be selected then we cant unlock bootloader as well.
fastboot oem unlock XXXX
...
(bootloader) Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Developer Options.

and http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-9/help/warning-locking-bootloader-disabling-t2951312
So if someone has an idea on how to cancel the flag i somehow enabled by executing 'SetupWizardTestActivity' from nova launcher wizard.
The wizard cant complete because it doesn't have permission and i cant give permission as it is not allowing me to enter into the phone setting.
Did you ever find a way aroudn this issue? I've just run into it too..

For whoever facing recovery being deleted just after installing rom, go to mount and tick system. then advanced>file manager>select the file recovery from boot p and delete it. then reboot. then you won't lose recovery

Maybe because the Nougat Launcher isnt official released yet, and it will be a Nexus ONLY Feature, Not a AOSP One. Flash the nexlauncher zip and you'll be fine.

Let me try installing again then. yes I did all those full wipes. I have a doubt for first time setup wizard didn't even come. It just booted straight to home screen. But second time setup wizard came but now it crashes at the end and keeps repeating and not going to home screen. I will try this again

don't enter your google data on first run, skip it, grant all permissions for g_services , than it works without crashes.
Thanks !!!! Great works !! I've just install and all seems working. I have auto-rotate, cellular data, mtp, etc.
Just a "setting force close message" at every boot, but only once
Now, I will try Gapps!
Thanks
Edit : I have lost possibility to boot in recovery partition

Yes, no problem with autorotation.
I've re-flashed TWRP.
Install Gapps
Give all permissions for Google Play Services
and now i'm restauring app and data (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68418955&postcount=147)
After a few minutes, it seems that mobile network works intermittently. I don't know if this is a bug in the Rom or my Network Operator.
So I'll try for a few days

No it was working on marshmallow.

Thank you so much! Working great!
I don`t know why, but I also lost my TWRP after flashing the ROM. Reflashing with fastboot solved it.
Only issue I have is that my contacts will not sync. Has anyone else this problem?

Finally Nougat on Deb, Thank you a lot
Working fine, only on startup setting crashing everytime.
Cellular works fine, camera crashing when im trying to record a video file, shows that camera cant connect to camera :silly:
auto-rotation works perfecrly, i have got a problem with auto-rotation, after PradeepMurugan post, i have reconnect this wire, and now its works normally.
nexus launcher working, but in the landscape mode i cant open app menu, i think its a bug of nexus launcher.
I cant sync contacts too, but i fixed this, i downloaded from apk mirror google contacts and google contacts syns apk, installed them, disable pre-installed contacts, clear data these apps - contacts, google contacts sync, google play services, play market, google services framework. After i give out all permission to these apps - contacts, contacts storage, google account manager, google backup transport, google contacts sync, and give permission to google play services because after cleaning data, they cleaned too, and also give permission to google play market. After that i've reboot my tablet and open contact, they were synced, and in the account settings contacts sync appeard. At least its worked for me, and my contacts from marshmallow appear in Nougat.
bongster, thanks for navigation bar tuner, night mode works fine.

Hello,
This will not get you an account but if the app doesn't let you in, this is a workaround to use it without logging in:
Go into the settings > Lock screen > Lock Screen Mods > 'the little setting icon next to the Static wallpaper'
and you should be in the themes app now.

Here is an easy step by step tutorial:
1. Download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut
2. Open it, you should be in the activities tab (if not navigate to it)
3. In the text field "Input keyword to filter" type "Theme Chooser"
4. Expand the hopefully one search result and click on the first one
5. Check if it works by clicking on try then click create to add it to your homescreen
I also included a screenshot in my post.
Hope it helps.

Pixel Camera - Launch Error from Lockscreen

Hello.
I recently installed Pixel 3 Camera on my Poco F1. Its working great.
However, whenever I try to launch from the lock screen (like swipe to top from right/double tap power key), it gives me this error.
Is there a fix this? I have given all permissions etc but still getting this error
"Camera error
To function properly, Camera needs your permission. Unlock your device and go to Setting to allow permission for Camera"
I'm getting the same error, from what I understand it's specific to the GCam version
Do you get the same problems if you use another GCam version?
Same here
Having the same issue with Google Cam MGC 6.1.021.V2a (latest), running on LOS16 build 20181219 (latest).
Following
Same issue here, have anyone found solution?
Same
I get the same error. I did check permissios, with no luck.
Still a persistent problem. I've looked around and anyone using Gcam trying to access via double tapping power (while locked) or trying the lockscreen shortcut are all getting the permission denied error. Many have suggested disabling stock camera, but the camera that comes with my current custom rom, Havoc OS, can't be disabled. If we could only toggle a permission. Unfortunately it seems like the system has hidden it or refused actress to that certain lockscreen toggle because it's a third-party app (downloaded through the modded apk).
Seriously hope there's a workaround in future. Commenting here for any updates either way.
I had this fixed but recently started having this ever again after downloading a new version. But I'm going to try it's just installing the camera version that I want directly into the ROM by default and formatting the phone. That's what I did last time and it worked

Question Applications lose their permissions when restarting the device (Redmi Note 10 mojito/sunny

Every night I turn off my phone, the next day I wake up, and turn it on, and some applications such as messages, or google photos, brave browser, ask me for permissions or define defaults, this only happens after restarting the device

In the settings for the "Info>Permissions" application in the system, there is an option to "remove permissions for inactive applications". The system will probably evaluate the application as inactive and remove the permissions.
Turn off this feature for the listed applications.
I cant find that settings anywhere
I'm on a custom ROM and can't verify if Miui supports it. But Android 11 has this feature and custom ROM also.
It's supposed to be where you set permissions for the application.
