I have tried many different variants of 4.3, such as CM nightlies, PA, but without fail the camera either force closes on trying to take a picture with either camera. Same goes if the gallery is disabled and a 3rd party app is used.
I have found some mention of this in the CM nightlies thread, and that said wiping the cache from recovery would solve the issue but it has not. I've tried clearing the app data from settings/apps and the recovery method mentioned, but the camera inevitably mucks up. This is what's keeping me from using a 4.3-based ROM.
Is it just me has issues with the front camera (mainly, sometimes back camera) on 4.3? I'm currently on CM 10.1.3 stable, but I could re-flash a 4.3 ROM if logcats are required.

In the stock Camera app, it tries to load, and then I get the message "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped". I've rebooted, and deleted data/cache from the Settings -> App menu.
I tried in Camera Zoom FX and the app will load, but I get no picture. It is just a blank screen.
I looked at the adb debug log, and I see a message along the lines of, "Media server has stopped."
I have tried using AOKP rom with Franco Kernel and stock rom, stock kernel (4.0.2).
Are there any other options for me to get the camera to work? It seems like most people on here were able to fix there problem by rebooting, but that is not the case with me.
what rom? ive no problem with bixies 4.1.1 aosp rom and trinity kernel.
I tries AOSP for 4.0, not 4.1, and it still doesn't work. I'm guessing its a hardware issue. Can I replace just the physical camera? Is there a way I can test just the camera? I don't believe its the rom I'm using.
Any one want to buy a nexus with no camera?
Would posting the debug log help? or is this a lost cause.
I know the camera isn't broken because the camera works on any rom that isn't cyanogen based. I made sure i wiped all data and cache and system before installing cyanogenmod 10 or 10.1 and I got the correct gapps too, but every time i try to load any camera app, it errors and shuts down. the integrated camera app says "cannot connect to camera" and then closes right away after opening it. How is this fixable? what am I doing wrong?
I've noticed this on other roms as well that other than the stock rom, the camera closes imediately without any force close warning or anything. I just get a black screen and it suddenly closes. I think on X3 rom or something like that (ics, LB) it worked fine but on xzxperience and other LB ics roms, the camera app didn't work.
I wiped everything (cache,dalvic, data, system) and i also "unmount /system" when flashing the rom. There's no problem with any other app except camera app. I also tried clearing the data for the camera but still doesn't work.
Any idea?
Please, there has to be something that i'm not doing. It is just the camera app that's causing the problem as other apps from market are working (camera ics etc..).
I tried to flash the cybershot zip as well but still the same results.
I was curious about testing out CM 11, so I backed up CM 10.2 stable and updated, flashed the new gapps, etc. I didn't like CM 11, so I restored my backup. Now, whenever I try to take a picture with the front facing camera, the app (whether it be a third party, or the stock camera) crashes, and I have to restart my phone to be able to access the camera. The camera was fine just before updating. I have tried replacing the stock gallery app with a fresh apk, and clearing the cache. Is there anything short of a factory reset that will fix this issue? Is there some sort of data in the root directory that remained from the update to CM11?
I believe I fixed the issue by restoring an older backup, and my app data through Titanium.
Phone is a Samsung s3, sgh-T999L on tmobile.
Problem I am having is if I install anything above like pico gapps, basically anything that has more than like google play services, my camera on KK 4.4.x roms force closes and locks up.
I have narrowed it down to somthing withing the gapps packages that is causing the issue with the camera, but I cannot for the life of me track down what app is doing it, if it IS an app, my assumption is that it's an app that conflicts with the camera.
What I have done thus far is a Ful wipe, data, cache, internal, dalvik, etc....everthing, and I do this kind of wipe on every flash/install of roms.
I have tried cm11 full gapps, pa full, micro, and pico gapps, and every one of them except for the pico gapps, causes issues with the camera.
I have tried this on 3 different 4.4.4 roms....carbon rom, cm11 rom, and Octos KK rom, and all three have the exact same issue.
I first tried without using gapps and camera worked, so I then proceeded to try different versions of gapps, and narrowed it down to pico gapps works, while other gaps do not.
So has anyone else run into this issue or problem? I've tried searching google but I'm not exactly sure what to search for so I tried different search strings with no resolve, so I decided to post here and see if anyone else has had this issue.
In TW roms camera works fine, no issues. In KK roms useing just the minimal gapps (pico gapps) camera also works fine, using anything above the gapps package be it PA or cm, the camera does not function. When I say not function I mean it locks up, fc's, gives an errors of "cannot connect to camera" (I've done a search on that as well and got nothing).
So if anyone has had this issue and/or maybe has a fix, please please help!!!!!!
