Hey community,
my problem is following:
since some days without any software changes (except playing with the settings) or special physic effects on my phone all three of them, the camera, the notification LED light and the Flash light of the camera, used as torch before, don´t work.
I was using the custom ROM Redux 1.2, did some hours ago a full wipe, now under GingerVillain2.8, there occur same problems.
After hours with google i can only think about a hardwareproblem because the often used Torch in the last three weeks.
If i start the Camera Application, there comes only a blackscreen and after a while, pressing back, the phone says something like "We´re sorry! Activity Camera (in Application Camera) doesn´t respods".
Any help in sight? Greetings, h0rt3xUs
so my suggestion - return to S-on and flash appropriate RUU test your phone with stock rom, if this problem will still present, then sent you phone to HTC repair center

Last time i used my camera on my desire i noticed something strange:
i pressed the volume up and down buttons ant the screen starts flickering in a strange way. after this it turns purple and stays purple until i end the camera application.
i use the original stock froyo rom with root, market and camera fix.
I have exactly the same problem
instal Vanila ROM or better OD od Cyanogen for best result with camera
& also with Android
i would suggest trying a different radio version, newest if your not running it. if you are, go back a version.
I've had the same issue, it seems quite common, nothing has fixed it apart from sending it back to the place I bought it. I'm on my 3rd desire now, and this one is going back for the camera glitch fault too, 1st one had no camera flash, 2nd one camera purple screen glitch, and 3rd one the same camera glitch.
HTC are aware
I too have this problem.
I reported it to HTC and they have escalated the issue. They said they have had 2 reports of it(!)
So any of you guys want to report it to HTC too, it may up their priority to resolve it!
workaround - If you set your phone to airplane mode before you use the camera, it should be OK

i dont have this issue, running rooted stock 2.10, my radio in my signature
Hey,
Some days ago i flashed the UK 2.2 ROM onto my defy, everythings working fine, just applyed the marketfix.
Now a friend of mine got his defy today and we flashed the same rom to his, and everything seems to work - except the camcorder.
The camera-app, for taking photos, is working as it should. Now here's what we've noticed so far:
- both apps produce a clicking noise of the camera, which my defy doesn't do
- if we set the resolution to QVGA or CIF, the camcorder is working correctly
doesn't matter if we start with the camera and switch, or start with the camcorder-shortcut - it's just clicking, everything turns black for a second, and that's it. Any ideas? It's kind of strange to see it working on my phone, but not on his. Btw under his battery-cover it says "BT 33", mines a "B 9".
edit: After flashing for the second time, i realised it is the "Market_Apps_Camera_Mod_Haptic_Mod" that breaks the camcorder. So the solution is very simple.
The Marketfix for 2.2 is available alone, but not the haptic-fix, for the solution here ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936313 ) is resulting in a bootloop, as for some other users, too.
does anyone have the unmodfied "framework-res.apk" WITH haptic fix enabled, or maybe a .zip of the haptic fix to apply via recovery? that would be great!
Hi
Basically been having this problem for a while now and its starting to bug me. I rooted my phones ago now, and until recenlty the camcorder worked fine on all ROMS, however recently been facing a big problem with it. Every time I launch camcorder on any ROM my phone will freeze and have to take battery out and restart. I unrooted it and installed stock and it worked fine (so it can't be the SD card) re rooted again installed RSK and boom same problem. Does anyone have solutions to this?
Thanks in advance
If I remember correctly, the aroma installer gives you the option to change between two with a warning about one not recording. Also, have you tried another third party app to see if that works? You may also want to try taking the battery cover off and pressing (not too firmly) over the camera window and on the metal sheilding around it. It might have slightly disloged from the upper board but try the software first.
If you start noticing the notification LED, receiver (earspeaker) or camera flash not working as well, then it may need the upper board reconnecting to the main board and you should send it in for repair, but this is a pretty thin possibility, as I said, software first.
Updated to JB 4.1.1 and video camera not working, Gallery Stopped.
Updated to JB 4.1.2 same problem.
My camera and panorama are working fine.
Please help.
Thank you.
I'm having a similar problem.. last night, I attempted to use the TeslaLED widget to aid myself while walking my dog at night. To my chagrin, the light never came on. I wondered if it was the light itself, so I attempted to open the camera to take a picture... it immediately closed and showed "gallery stopped" for an error message. I rebooted the phone hopping that would fix the problem. The problem was still there after booting back up.
I was running a CM10 nightly that I've had for over a month. My Verizon Galaxy Nexus is rooted and unlocked. I attempted to flash a stable CM10, but am still having the same problem. I will attempt to flash stock tonight to see if that fixes it.
Gallery not working
Ever since JB 4.2.1 update...my gallery and camera no longer works! Tried clearing cached, hard reset but no luck. Next step might be to toss it out the window....
Ok, somehow its fixed! I had backed up my gnex via recovery mode before I installed the stable cm10. When that didn't fix my problem, I restored the backup do I didn't have to reconfigure everything again when I flashed stock later yesterday evening. But, to my surprise, restoring the backup fixed the problem!
I too am having an issue w/ my Gnex's camera. The app will open from the gallery, & the camera buttons are at the bottom of the screen, but the screen is black. You can push the button to capture a pic, but nothing happens, you can switch to record video & it locks up & FC's. Every now & then you can open the app directly from the camera widget, but it typically just goes to a black screen w/ the software keys at the bottom faded out & the phone just locks up. I replaced the camera w/ a known working camera from a parts Gnex I have. Same issue. I was running 4.1.2, but I've since upgraded to 4.2.2 hoping there was some sort of software fix. No dice... still doing the same thing. The isn't rooted... but I'm going to root it & throw on another ROM to see if I can get it working somehow... but outside of that, I don't know what else to do. Any new ideas?

Hi,
I come to you for a strange problem...
From one week, I can't use the HTC camera app. When i launch it, I have a black screen. I thought the camera was broken but snapchat was working :/
So, I donwloaded an other camera app (google), and front and rear camera work well. But, if I start Htc camera app, and other camera, it will bug, I just have to close the HTC app and others apps work again... I tried to clear data app.
I Run ARHD 11.1, root, s-off...
Does anyone seen it before?
Thanks,
Allan
Edit : When I am on the HTC cameara app, I can activate the flash, take a picture (because I know where the buttons are)..But the screen is still black!
Same issue mate
I've cleared the data and still no joy other apps work just not the htc camera as its just black but I know it still works as I can hear it, what modules do you have running mate? I'm in viper one 2.5 and s-off
I also have a black screen on my Camera app htc one m8
Try to re-flash the ROM, with full wipe (data, cache and Dalvik).
Also, make sure your firmware is up to date.
I don't want to reflash tho as just got the phone how I like it minus the camera tho lol Google camera works I've uninstall htc m8 camera and reinstalled it fresh still no joy just a black screen maybe I'll wait for a update on the viper one rom, oh also the mini camera works of the viper side bar
I'm having this same issue in the same rom but when I use Google camera it says can't connect to camera
Do you have any screen rotation locks on?
I had this exact same problem and I looked all over for a solution with no luck. Other than a hard reset I had run out of options. I was deleting other apps that use the camera and checking back every time, and one time I opened the app and it worked for a few seconds before turning the screen landscape (I was still holding it portrait), then turning to black screen again. I checked my rotation lock, and it was locked to portrait. I tried unlocking the rotation and what do you know, it worked perfectly after that. I tried relocking the screen rotation to portrait, and the problem came back. I turned it off again, and it works perfectly.
