I have a rooted LGOG, and an unlocked SIM. Apart from that it is completely stock. I noticed the any app that uses a camera (including the camera app) the front camera only works. So all pics are of me. I have tried switching the cameras but cannot seem to use the camera as it is meant to be used.
Suggestions?

It gives you no option to switch from front to back? The stock camera app has a toggle. So it is missing?

Just got the phone today. I love it. But for some reason, the auto focus isn't working on my camera. I've tried everything. Played around with different settings. I've taken about 8 photos. All have been blurry. Any thoughts?

Try a factory reset. If that doesnt work then return the phone. This phone has one of the best cameras I have seen on a phone.

Tried everything. Camera is defective. Sent it to Samsung to have camera replaced.
Ok i am going to try to describe the problem. In the camera app everithing works but when switching to the front facing cam it freezes and it says camera aplication stoped working. I have tried in several apps, roms, kernels and the problem remains. Is it a hardware problem? And another problem is that the back camera pictures look kind of crappy (blurry) i bought it used a few months ago and it keeps bugging me. Is there a way to fix it?
I think it is a hardware problem

I have the same problem, but on the back camera. I think it's a hardware issue.
My front camera caused the same issue. Getting the app to work required stopping the process so it would default again to the front cam. This was about 6 months ago..
I just tried it again and the front cam works... Kind of. Images are blurred and screwy.
Gonna say it's a hardware issue?
I have a T-Mobile HTC M8 that I fully converted to Stock 4.4.2.
Yesterday I sideloaded stock 4.4.3. Everything was fine until I noticed something today -- front camera is no longer functional.
I've attached 2 pictures:
1. In resolution & quality -- front camera isn't even selectable. When I toggle between front and back, it just inverts the back camera. Yes, I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling stock app AND clear cache.
2. My build number to show that I'm up to date.
I'll try to do a factory reset -- but I hope someone here can verify if it's isolated to me only, or it's a bug with the HTC One M8 gpe update to 4.4.3
Thanks,
Michael

Weird. Yesterday, my REAR camera stopped working without any apparent impetus from me. In the stock camera app, I can't even select the rear camera and if I use a different camera app (LapseItPro), I can select the rear camera but the image is completely inverted (both horizontal and vertical) and looks a bit squeezed.
I'm using Venom...doing a factory reset didn't help and neither did restoring from a month old backup. I'll be following your thread closely, but I'm afraid I'll have to restore to stock and haul it up to T-Mobile for a warranty replacement.

So only your front (selfie) camera works? You have the same symptoms as me except it's my front (selfie) camera that isn't selectable. I don't have anything custom installed. I believe the 4.4.2 conversation even unrooted me. I only have, s-off.
If no one else is having this issue, I'm guessing I'll have to factory reset. If that doesn't work - most likely firmware is jacked up and I'll have to restore to Stock and warranty exchange at T-Mobile

Yessir, that's about the long and short of it. I could almost overlook the selfie camera not working since I rarely use it, but the main camera not working is a killer.
I installed a different ROM (Revolution) and then killed everything and went back to stock, but it's still hosed. Here's hoping I can exchange it at a store.
Any luck with your factory reset?

Nope, factory reset didn't fix the problem. 4.4.3 sideload definitely hosed my front camera. I'm going to restore to stock T-mobile ROM and go exchange for another one at T-mobile.

M8 Rear camera black screen
My M8 has the same problem. When you launch the stock Camera app it crashes on opening.
I reset Camera app data, cleared cache. The camera app will open, but only to the front facing selfie camera. The rear camera can sometimes be accessed, but the rear camera will just show a black screen.
I installed and launched the Google Camera app. The Google Camera opens to the front facing selfie camera. When you select the rear camera the image is upside down and the axiis are reversed, when you pan the camera left the upside down screen pans right.
Factory reset did not correct the problem.

Hi,
My treat camera used to work fine, but one day started the autofocus started to fail, and pictures taken are blurry.
I've checked using other camera applications (which don't use the laser focus) but all are having the same issue.
I've ordered a new camera and changed, just to find the same issue.
I've noted that when using the magic mode, the pictures taken can be manually focused and they are good as they used to be.
I've also run the camera test on the hidden menu, and it shows AF failed.
Any idea? Is it possible to calibrate the focus of the camera?
Thanks in advance.

I had to buy another camera, and now it is working.
It cost me about 10 US$ on ebay.
