help why doesn't my camera work! - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So my first and most important problem right now it that my camera doesn't work the camera opens with a black screen and to close it you have to press home.
i just flashed Cool3D AceS v3 CM7/r2 Hboot Version
and if my radio is 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 would that be the problem
also i was wondering what the difference between the two versions by Cool3D AceS were. Apparently they weren't obvious to me so i would like to know please
I also had a bootloop problem on my previous rom(MIUI)which was the the reason i had to switch. It wasn't exactly a bootloop because it booted up completely but after 10 seconds it will restart. i've tried factory reset, formating sd, and other miui including uk roms and us vs. but it still happens. Have anyone else experience this?The only thing that solved it was the rom i have now.
can someone help me please thanks in advance

Are you sure your finger isn't in front of camera...?

go to mounts & storage, format everything apart from your sd-card and then reflash the ROM. Simples.

I`ve got the same problem several days ago. Tried to flash same ROM (Runnymede 3.04) without full wipe. Nothing changed. Moreover, when I press Home and kill camera application with ATK, the power consumption raises up to 200-300 mA and battery drains very fast. Did anyone managed this problem? It seems to be hardware problem, Isn't it?

[Q] Camera Broken Upon Update?

Anyone else have the camera load to a blank black screen with no buttons in any and all apps that utilize the camera? Camera, Barcode Scanner, Sniper Shot, and all other programs that use the camera fail to load since the update. Anyone have any idea as to why?

Did you try a restart, I have heard of camera problems like this before (i think first FroYo update) and all it needed was a simple reboot.
Reboot didn't work. I reflashed the rom and BAM, it worked again. Crisis averted.
I have the same problem.
I'm running the following:
Azreal 3.0
circular battery widget update
removed HTC lock screen
superior battery charging kernel
wifi hotspot patch
I'm currently trying things to figure out what will fix it.
Here are the current things I have tried that did NOT fix the problem:
Reboot
Wipe cache/davlik cache
fix UID mismatches
I then reflashed azreal 3.0
At this point the camera worked again but everything was wiped. I then reapplied the following patches:
Circular battery
remove HTC lock screen
wifi/hotspot patch
after this everything continued to work
I then applied:
superior battery charging kernel and it broke again
I think the problem is the superior battery charging kernel
i am having the same problem and have not been successful yet fixing it. switched from cm7 back to stock to update my prl and tryed to use the camera while stock when the black blank screen happened. flashed to evdo(sense) and same result. flashed back to cm7 and the 1st time i opened camera it opened the ffc. when i tried to switch and everytime i have tried to open it since i get "camera error cannot connect to camera" help plz!
If you have HW 0004 phone or HW003 with the new camera, you have to make sure your rom has a kernel with the NEW drivers. The kernel in my signature has the new drivers for ASOP roms (like cm 7).
just flashed Savaged-Zen-V002-CFS-HAVS-SBC-WiMAX - GB.zip
with the same result running cm7. seems like ive tried 20 different things with no success. everything i have flashed has been off my sd meaning i have had all of it running before at one time or another with no problem. i really cant think of what ive done new to have caused this
Same here
Happened to me right after I flashed calkulins_format_all.zip and then the MikFroyo4.4.zip yesterday. I thought it was a problem with mikfroyo so I flashed Azraelz 3.1 and still the same issue (i was using azrael 3.0 with no prob prior to mikfroyo).
I'll post if I find anything that works, please also give any suggestions i'm willing to try anything b4 i take her to sprint.
I also flashed calkulins evio rom. When I flash back to stock it will start running again sometimes. Not even right away though. It will be black for a while then if I just let the phone sleep for a bit and come back to it bam. Camera again. For a little while. Then back to the same thing an hour later without doing anything! This is very frustrating! Someone plz help!

UPDATE
I turned my phone off and switched SD cards to one that has an old backup (3.29, kernel#11), when I booted into recovery, I could hear clicking noices coming from the lens, at a super fast rate (say 2-3 clicks a second).
Not wanting to do any more damage I turned off the phone.
I did just take my phone to sprint to fix my kick stand, maybe they did something to mess with me (thats just my paranoid side speaking)...
But what gives? What would make the camera shutter do that while im in recovery (btw using latest amon ra recovery)?

[Q] Huge Problem with Camera

Hey guys,
i have a problem, well 2 problems with my Desire.
First thing i had was permanently rebooting after installing InsertCoin Sense 2.1.
I tried everything that came to my mind (redownloaded, wiped multiple times, repartitioned SD card, different recoveries, and so on) problem was still there. It booted until the lockscreen appears, and after some seconds rebooted again.
Then i switched back to Oxygen, which i was using before.
Everything went well, but then Camera doesn't work. Just starts a black screen, and nothing happens after that.
i have to reboot the device after camera fail, because it drains my battery even after stopping service, i don't know why.
I wiped, reflashed, but still the same problem. I also changed to CM7 to test it, but same problem there
tried some radios, and different kernels...nothing works.
Here some information : HTC Desire amoled, s-off, radio 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance

Try going back to stock with proper RUU.
It sounds like a hardware problem, but try the stock way first, just to be sure
Thank you.
It definitely was a hardware problem.
changed to ruu, but was still the same.
i sent it in now, and am on a nokia n86. So funny to see how much changed since then

MIUI problem

I have a problem with MIUI rom. Some days ago, my phone suddenly had FC, now, my phone run really slow and laggy... If I turn off the screen, my phone won't wake up, only four button in the bottom light up.
I wiped everything in CMW (system,data, and cache, also sd-card) but it doesn't work.
The fresh install had the same issues
I have this problem only with MIUI rom
any help
You probably need to provide more info on the issue. What version of MIUI are you running? Have you tried a fresh download of the ROM?

i have tried from 1.8.5 to 1.9.2.
it's very weird
this guy has the same problem with me, maybe he can explain better than me
http://forums.miui.us/showthread.php?3740-Display-won-t-wake-from-sleep
Hey guys, I flashed 1.819 yesterday and everything was going great. The ROM ran smoothly and I was having no issues at all. When I woke up the next morning my display would not turn back on. Every time I tried to turn on the display the soft lights would light up but the display remained unresponsive. The phone still seemed functional as I could hear e-mail and sms notifications coming through.
When I rebooted my phone it was abnormally slow.. mounting the sd card and syncing seemed like it was taking forever and the launcher was very jittery.. if I let my display time out it would not come back on and I'd be forced to pull the battery and try again.
I performed a full wipe through clockwork recovery (everything, including wiping system,data, and cache in 'mounts and usb') and reinstalled 1.819. The fresh install had the same issues.. if I let my display time out I wouldn't be able to turn it back on. I thought I was having some wonky hardware issue but after flashing my previous sense rom and everything is working perfectly.. so I'm pretty much scratching my head here. My phone was kickass for one day and became allergic to MIUI overnight!

Have you tried using a different kernal such as Tiamat or JD's Kernal?
May want to try that. I had good luck with Miui and Tiamat (ran it for a week)

Does this happen immediately after you flash? Or are you installing applications to get back to your preferred setup and then seeing the performance problems?
If it's the latter, I'd run the rom alone and see if it runs normally. Then install your applications individually until you encounter issues.

immediately after the flash. I don't install any other apps
since we are talking about MIUI issues. I am running the latest version of MIUI with the JDKernal.
The camera has color distortion lines when I take a picture. The picture comes out fine but when taking it the image shows the distortion. It did not do that before so I can only assume its something with the camera in the ROM.
Anyone else see this?

tenchu, your signature says you are not English or American. Are you running the MIUI.us ROM on your incredible 2 in English - and not another language?
.....just a thought.

[Q] MildWild Oxy 4.0 install problem

I have decided to move from my An-droid to MildWild Oxy 4.0. Install freezes at firstboot (white HTC screen stays for 40 min).
I have rooted desire gsm, Oxygen r2 hboot (6.93.1002), wiped everything, formatted SDcard to 512 128 (swap), it's S-OFF
What am I doing wrong?
edit: I was supposed to use data+ hboot, not oxygen r2

Camera problem
I'm writing here because I still don't have permission of writing in Development subforum (I must wrote 10 posts). So if anyone can contact the developers on this issue.
I have problem with camera on Mildwild V-4.0 Based on Oxygen 2.3.2
When I shoot first image, it's ok, but when i go to shoot second image, phone freeze on autofocusing and reboot after about 10 seconds. I looking for solution on forum but not help.
I did check disk memory card, formate fat32 and ext4 particons and flash rom again like as first time. And it's no changes, again is the same problem.
I put the MIUI Camera and it is identical problem.
When I dismounted and re-mount the memory card, I can again shot a single picture, and at the second shot come "before using the camera, insert SD card"
I've never had this problem on other roms.
I test many roms, and this seems fastes and I would like to stay on this rom, but the camera was very important and necessary to me.
How to solve this problem?
Mine works
Mine camera works on my desire on this ROM. Maybe it's a permissions thing that causes this loop?
Btw, I have solved my problem

And hot to solve problem with this permissions? I actually noticed that I can't write or change anything on the memory card, like as it is locked. I can only read from it.
How to change that?
Camera problem also
My camera doesn't work at all! It used to work like a charm but now it just says Application Camera ICS is not responding
