We all know that we have been affected by "cant connect to camera error" in cm11 based roms.It is very frustrating being not able to capture at the right moment.So i here present a workaround method.By following this method we guys dont have to reboot our phones to fix the error.It is just a temporary fix that will somewhat "fix" the problem til or devs fixes it.
Follow these steps:-
1)Search for "cm11 camera fix" on play store. Or download the attached apk.(skip step 2 3 &4 if u downlaod attached app).
2)An app will appear "dont" install the app.
3)Open the description of the app and in the last u will find a link to "restart camera.apk".
4)Visit the link and downlaod the app.
5)Install it and Now whenever u face the error , just click on the " restart camera"app..
6)This will reset the camera driver and "fix" the issue.U dont have to reboot the phone.

Hi,
I have installed the crDroid ROM and now the torch and the camera didn't work.
With the camera I have the error message "Can't connect to camera".
I tried other camera apps.
Tried to erase apps data and cache.
Rebooted x times the phone
Someone experiencing the same problem ?
XDA Devs,
From last two days i am experiencing issues with the Camera of my Zenfone 2 ZE551ml (1.8Ghz, 2GB, 16GB, Firmware:-2.20.40.160, i.e., LRX21V.WW-ASUS_Z00A-2.20.40.160_20151225_1227_user044030427_201501060109).
The Camera App is closing Down with the Error message "Camera failed to launch. Please Reboot your device and try again."
If I try to use the built in Flashlight App, it crashes the whole system and i have to do a hard reset.
Even other camera apps/social media apps/built-in ""Mirror App"" are not able to detect/recognise the camera.
I have tried to :-
1) Reboot the Device, that too Multiple Times
2) Reboot the Device in Safe mode, that too Multiple Times
3) Clear the System Cache
4) Clear the ASUS PixelMaster Camera Cache
5) Perform SMMI Test from the Calculator, which shows a error message "Unfortunately, SMMI TEST has stopped" on starting CameraFlash Test, on Camera test it show "Something wrong with Main+Front Camera Capture Test!".
6) And finally Factory Reset, Twice
Please Advise
I would try reflashing your Rom, can be done by flashing through fastboot or adb sideloading and I would reset my device before flashing. You can download the full Rom for adb sideloading on ASUS website or the img files links are located in the "change from CN to WW" thread under general thread here

Any update on this? My fon is experiencing the same problem
my too
Whenever i am opening samsung music, i am getting the cannot download error popup. I have tried uninstalling and then installing the app again and again and even factory resetting the phone. But still same error pops up as soon as i open samsung music. Did anyone faced the same issue and knows how to fix it?
Hi! I have a problem related to saving. When i want download something, Chrome says "Waiting for network", when i want to take a screenshot it says "a screenshot could not be made", when i want to take a photo, it says "camera error" and it closes when i press OK button. However installing apps from Google Play works.
NOTE: I never tried to do root or install Custom ROM on device. I'm running on official Android 8.0 update, and i only did hard reset once.
