What build and rom are you using .. ask them for a fix ...
Hi there,
i have the same problem:
Everytime i try to start video-mode, the app crashes.
When i open and close the app a few times, the cam crashes, too.
Switching from back to front cam sometimes fails, the back cam is active again (after some freeze-time).
Everything worked fine with 4.0.3 stock (open bootloader,root and cwm with GNToolKit).
The problem occurred with the update to 4.0.4. stock (IMM76D & IMM76I)
(I had to do a full wipe, cause i encrypted the phone and cwm could not load the updatefile from encrypted sdcard).
So what i've tried till now:
- clear app cache and data
- extracted camera .apk and .odex from stock 4.0.3 and moved it to /system/app but that didn't work
- Tried other cam-apps (crash)
- installed open bootloader and rooted again (GNToolKit)
- removed flashlight app
- wipe cache /dalvik cache
I don't know, what i should try next, so please help me
Thanks so far...
P.S. Since 4.0.4. all taken photos have a yellow spot. Maybe i should go back to 4.0.3.....
Galaxy Nexus with ICS 4.0.4 IMM76I
Update:
Wiped all and then installed 4.0.2 stock. Everything worked fine with the cam.
Updated OTA to 4.0.4 and now it's the same again... cam crashes if i want to take a video.
Update:
What helped? I got a new one, now everything works fine.
I did go back to stock then it began to work, now it works with any rom again

I flashed the newest update. 4.0.4 from google
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
i tried all variants.
Bit strange, that cam worked with 4.0.2 but not with 4.0.4.
Maybe they changed cam-api or something.
With my new gNex, cam works fine
The problem I had wasn't that the camera/video didn't work but that it couldn't save to SD . It had something to do with the permissions and the videocam crashed when I switched . The camera couldt save pictures
P.S I locked my bootloader and then opened it when I did the factory restore
Try to go back to factory a couple of times
Do u have the thumbnail in camera app?
Mine was missing..
I played a lot with the tablet mod, maybe its have something to do with it or maybe because I flashed a lot of roms. I have never seen this before.. it was kind of weird

I flashed stock rom, and i think it overwrote all permissions set before.
I locked bootloader, unrooted phone, unlocked it again, then locked it again.. several times. Nothing changed.
My new gNex came with an open bootloader, i was wondering...
The bootloader is still opened and i am root again
I think i had a hardware problem. with 4.0.4. all images i took, had a yellow spot in it. I had thumbnails, too.
maybe you were just unlucky and got a gnex with errors. Was just glad I did't have a hardware failure. I went from 4.0.2 stock ROM to a 4.0.3 costume rom. It then worked fine! when I later upgraded to 4.0.4 costume rom it went wrong . isn't the bootloader always locked? by default?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yes, bootloader is locked by default. I don't know what they did before with this gNex.
Maybe it's not a new gNex, but one, who came back from a user, who didn't want it.
The main point is, it works

Hi guys,
Here are the symptoms
My Galaxy Nexus（GSM) was rooted with wutfresh 1.4, and flashed with AOKP 4.0.4, everything went OK, except for the camera. it will take pictures, but nothing was saved in Gallery. when I try to record video, the app just quit on its own. ppl suggest re-flashing it. so I flashed it with 4.1 Jelly Bean. funny thing is problem persist. so i guess something went wrong with rooting it?
I'm totally new to this rooting thing. so please help
someone help plz
Try deleting Gallery.apk in /system/app and reinstalling a fresh one maybe (don't forget to change permissions)?
Hi guys,
So I just bought a second hand Galaxy Nexus that was purchased from Fido in Canada. When I got the phone it was on 4.0.2 and I only tested the phone for an hour and everything seemed to be running fine. Since it wasn't a Yakju build I wasn't getting the 4.0.4 update. Hence, I decided to follow the guide to convert it to Yakju build so eventually I can get the official Jelly Bean update as well. The guide I followed was this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
At the end of this, I was on 4.0.4. Didn't test the phone while on this firmware. Went in to the settings > Application and disabled the google service framework to receive the 4.1 update. Thereafter, I received the update and got on to 4.1 for few hours everything seemed to work fine. At some point, when i tried to use the phone by pressing the lock/unlock button nothing happened. the screen stayed blank. so i took the battery out and put it back in and after that my camera wouldn't work. As soon as I open the app, it force closes. This applies to any app using the camera such as instagram. So I did a factory reset. Everything seemed to be fixed. Camera was working again. Then few hours later samething happened. The screen went blank, the phone would not wake up from the sleep. Took the battery out and when I turned it back on, camera stopped working again. This time when I did factory reset (multiple times), the camera is not being fixed. The app force closes.
Do you guys have any suggestions on how I should fix it? Since I bought it second hand, I don't have the receipt so I cannot claim the warranty. The seller said the phone is only 3 weeks old. The phone is not rooted and currently the bootloader is unlocked. I'm not sure what to do.
It is possible that you need to wipe / factory reset since your phone was not yakju to start

isn't that part of the guide that I followed? I followed every step of it. Including n00b ones since they applied to me lol. And like i said, I have been doing factory reset from settings but it's not fixing the issue. It did fix it once which is really weird. But now it won't do it again :S
Can I repeat that guide even though I'm on 4.1? would it take me back to 4.0.4?
anyone?
Why don't you try to install another JB Rom?
If you have tried all wipes (data and cache), you should try with other roms. Look in this forum for the official jelly bean image, if you don't want some custom rom.
Good luck.

I've been installing everything official. Tried 4.0.4 again and 4.1 again. no use.
Hello to all
The day before yesterday I flashed on my YAKJU GN the 4.1.2 TAKJU factory image and then the TAKJU 4.2. I am rooted with SUPERSU, I have CWM touch and i use an app to disable lock-screen widgets, other than I am stock.
Until yesterday morning everything was running normally. Yesterday night and today my phone freezes when locked, the only way to fix it is to pull the battery.
Has anyone faced the same problem?
Thanks
Haven't had this problem myself, but it sounds like the kind of issues you get with a dirty flash. My best guess would be to try a complete wipe and a fresh install. You may want to wait to see if another member has a different take on it though. Did you restore anything with Titanium Backup?

Nope...apps installed from google servers and i manually fixed the settings.

Hey guys I have white galaxy nexus maguro.
The problem I facing is quite strange and I want help.
I have been using my phone from more than 6 months my phone works fine with stock rom i tried installing rom before months back a custom rom and it was CM 10.1 my phone touch starts to respond after sometimes clicks are happening everywhere i changed rom back to stock and problem goes.
So now after many months i came to know about this amazing rom for gnexus CrDroid based on Cm10.2
I just installed it and the problem i faced before is here again.
So conclusion to all this is my screen touch response is extra sensitive or i dont know what happens with it when i install a custom rom on it,
On stock rom its fine,
So what you guys think i should do or anyone else had the problem like that if they solved it please help thanks

You didn't do anything wrong while flashing? Or maybe a mod? Maybe even an app? You could try to flash the ROM and don't install apps and see how that goes for some days. If that doesnt work maybe you could flash stock via fastboot and then flash the ROM.

on stock problem is gone but on the ones i mentioned i am getting this bug that i cant even use my phone i unlock it and touch starts to respond all over the screen
Hey guys since i am testing i just installed slimbean and its working perfectly just like how stock behaves so can someone tell me what slimbean 4.3 and Stock 4.3 have in common and what CM10.2 has not and giving me issues?
So after flashing MHC19J via Clean Core, I can no longer connect to use the camera. What's even weirder, is that I downgraded back to my previous ROM, and now the camera has the same issue. I have no idea how to fix this. I have uninstalled the camera app via system remover app and reinstalled it. Issue is still there. Tried clearing data and cache, still not working.
Any suggestions? I have never had this before.
I have the same problem, could you find any solution?
I have to same issue too... help?
Guys try to flash full stock rom using sdk and then write if problem still is

I'm having yhe same problem, and it's acting strange, I wass on stock N when camera didn't started, rooted installed custom rom, and it didn't start neither.
Reverted to stock MM, and didn't start, upgraded to stock N again and worked just fine, after rooted and installed custom rom again it worked perfectly, and moments later didn't started, Rebooted two times and worked, later it didn't started again.
Tried to change vendor, rebooted in safe mode, nothing worked, any clue what might be the problem?
SOLVED: flashed the vendor again after installeg rom and camera started working,
Thanks!
Hi, after a while, the problem reappeared.
Again i've flashed the vendor.img and camera worked just fine for a while.
If i reboot to safe mode camera works fine but one time the camera didn't start even in safe mode.
So i can't find a proper path for this problem.
I've recorded 2 logcats, - at the first one camera worked fine
- the second one camera didn't start

Where did you buy? My phone was repaired by LG by warranty after the infamous bootloop issue and now camera has errors sometimes.

I'v bought one on second hand, from a bootlooped device. For. Me, it worked, i'm not 100% sure it will work for you but i'd try it if i were you. If it doesn't work you can sell it after.
