i tried Cyanogenmod 11 nightly, , CM11 Linaro and SlimKat 4.4, and everywhere i have the same problem, only the front camera works. in stock roms like LRS, everything is fine, as expected. i tried different camera apps, but the problem remains the same, the camera doesn't work, only the front camera does. there isn't even a button in the camera app to switch between back and front camera, as if i only have one.
is there a fix or a workaround for this? not having a camera is a dealbraker for me, but i really don't want to stay stock. i flashed multiple times, used different gapps versions, did factory resets and reboots, nothing seems to help, the stock version was 4.4.2 v50020. anyone else experiencing such problems?
WEIRD!!!!
I'm having the same problem. My Gpad came from the factory with 4.4.2 installed. and when I try to put any custon rom, this problem is with the camera. any solution? :crying:
Yes. The same problem. Maybe cyanogen team (Bug: CYAN-4444) can find solution.
same problem here, tryied every rom and kernel and nothing. only stock firmware back camera works.. can anyone help us?
read in one SlimKat thread that using the Google Camera from play store would work with all the custom roms, since it uses a different API than other apps.
Haven't tried myself, but you can give it a try
Google camera doesn't work better for me. This is very annoying

For me neither. Also in the latest builds where infected said the back camera should be fixed, it doesn't work for me.
The problem with camera is present on not only custom roms. It exists on official v50010a firmwares after downgrade. Possibly it's driver\kernel problem, which is caused distinction in camera's modules. Maybe new revisions of the G Pad use some other modules, than older ones.
Any directions to fix it ?
IMHO, they need to get out driver for camera from official 20a. But how it function with kernel, this is the big question that must be solved.
So, there is nothing i can do, except waiting somebody solving that issue ? No mistake on my side ?
Having no back camera is really not a problem to me, but i can't stand having something misconfigured...
Both cameras working for me slimkat 6.2
Not for me....
Some have problem... most don't, something different about your gpads ?

Rear camera not working too
Hi
For me the rear camera won't work too.
My G Pad is a V50020d with stock 4.4.2. I installed the Cyanogenmod 11 via CWM Philz Touch.
Same problem here
tried cm11, paranoid e now um on mahdi, no back camera on any of 3 roms
I haven't tested other custom roms, but Infected's CM11 M9 won't fix the back camera for me.
My G Pad (stock V50020a) is made in Brazil, there might be something to do with this driver or component-wise.
There is a source codes of the last firmware and kernel for the g pad on the lge site.
Maybe, it will help developers to add support for our camera module in the cyan kernel.
Same problem here... Spanish lg g pad 1 month of use

Hello Sir,
i have installed liquidsmooth lollipop 5.0 on Samsung sgh i747 but there are some problems in camera does not work so i want to change it but i don't want the custom rom.. I want the original one but unable to find it every link goes to some custom rom & i dont want them...i want the original one.........can i change the cynogenmod recovery to stock recovery.........
Reverting to stock recovery will not fix the camera problem.
What bootloader is on your phone? Don't flash anything until you confirm this because flashing the wrong ROM could brick your phone.

You'll have to be a bit more precise, what device do you have exactly? What bootloaders? And what was your exact flashing process?
Like Audit mentioned, it's not a recovery problem. Most likely flashed something that wasn't for your device or your device wasn't updated for (like bootloaders) but could also just be a problem with the ROM or a dirty flash.

Are you wanting a stock rom and stock recovery? Or, just the stock (original) recovery?
What you do depends on your answer to Audit13's question about your current bootloader and modem.
Lollipop ROMs as a group have had camera and video issues. Some third party camera apps have been working for two months. Following some CyanogenMod threads has had the stock camera intermittently working and then not working on subsequent updates for the past several weeks. Yesterday I read that the source of the problem was found in AOSP code. Supposedly camera issues will be fixed with the next update.
Hey guys,
I've been trying to remedy this for a couple weeks now and am having no luck at all. The problem first started after updating from stock 4.1.2 to Slimkat 4.4.4. I'm rooted and I couldn't update over Kies, so I went straight to custom.
The Rom in general is fantastic and I would have liked to continue using it but in third party apps (snapchat) the front camera gave has the wrong aspect ratio, resulting in a stretched image and being ultimately unusable. I use snapchat a lot, and this was a dealbreaker for me. I asked in the qa thread, no reply so I tried others. The normal front camera works fine.
I've been flashing roms like crazy trying to find ones that worked for me, and I've found that the only ones that work are samsung based touchwiz ones.
I've googled around and the resounding answer is that it shouldn't be happening after CM updated, but every CM based rom results in the same issue.
I really like CM and it's derivatives and I'd like to go back to using it. Not a fan of touchwiz.
I've been through (in order):
Stock 4.1.2 (everything worked fine)
Slimkat 4.4.4 (fantastic, camera problem)
Dirtyunicorn (fantastic, camera problem)
CarbonRom (fantastic, camera problem)
CM11 (fantastic, camera problem)
AOSPA 4.6 (fantastic, camera problem)
Liquidsmooth 5.0 (favourite, but same front camera distortion)
Stock 4.4.2 (everything works, still touchwiz)
Likewise S5 4.4.2 (everything works, awesome rom, currently using)
if I try back to AOSPA 4.6 and same problem as before occurs
Every time it's a full wipe, fresh gapps install, etc
Thanks in advance.
E: All Rom versions are the current stable release as of about a week ago.
E: Using the current TWRP now, was using the current CWM touch up until I got a bootloop and had to odin in twrp to fix it.
Bump?

just a real shot in the dark , but tried clearing cache in snapchat ; or uninstalling then reinstalling. or if have tibu then restore from 4.1.2 when was working. is there a Q&A for snapchat ? sorry dont have more , probably already tried these. ¿
or here is a different version/style , dont know if it would make a difference tho.
