Hi guys!
I recently (1 week?) updated my HTC One M8 to the Android Revolution HD 53.1 ROM. Suddenly, now, I can't open the official HTC Camera App. Well, actually, yes. I open it, and I just see a black screen, but the lower buttons. I can change to selfie mode, and it works perfect. However, when I try the rear camera, it doesn't function (just black screen and closes after ~4seconds). I took the last pictures less than 16 hours ago):
I've tried OpenCamera App, and it's also a black screen, although it doesn't freeze. I paste you the logcat, hope you can help me, guys! It would be awesome, thanks in advance. I've no idea of what can be happening, I don't even know if it's due to the ROM, because it worked perfectly yesterday...

After wiping my smartphone, it didn't worked... I supposed a Hardware problem.
But suddenly, since this afternoon, it works without problem. I don't know what can be happening.
I hope it doesn't occur any more

Using my Cingular 8525, was using Black 2.0 with no problems, but wanted to try LVSW's newest ROM, so I flashed to that. It ran good, but battery life was horrible, so I wanted to go back to Black 2.0, so I flashed to it. Re-installed everything, but my camera didn't work, if I pressed the button nothing happened. I did a hard reset, no luck, I reflashed Black 2.0, still wouldn't work.
My solution was to flash to an older LVSW ROM, and that worked, my camera was back. So, I flashed again to Black 2.0, and everything is fine.
What happened to my camera?

I was about to flash back to Cingular ROM and do a warranty exchange!
I'm running Black 2.0 on 8525 w/o camera issue.
You may want to remap the buttons, that's all I can think of.

No, it wasn't a button issue. If I went to start/programs and chose camera, nothing happened.
But, like I said, it's all working fine now after 4 million re-flashes.

pervert, quit flashing just for your camera.. i mean phone.. um
sounds like a weird issue though, but like they said before.. sometimes things happen.. the unexplainable mystery's of your phone...
it could be that your physical camera might have intermittent issues
I actually have the same issue. I have been running Black 2.0 now for a couple weeks or better (awesome build JJ) with no issues whatsoever, until about 3 or 4 days ago the camera stopped. Same issue as posted, button doesn't work, I tried going to the exe file, nothing. I tried loading a 3rd party program that is supposed to be better then the OEM Cingy camera program, it would flash up for a second and then disappear.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that JJ is going to come out with 2.5 and I will reflash my ROM and see if it comes back.
Funny, I have used the camera like 3 or 4 times since I got it...wouldn't have missed it but came across a pretty cool photo contacts/dialer program that I want to start using....went to use the camera for my first contact....and nothing.
JJ if your readin...please let me know if you release a Black 2.5, I would be all over it bud.
Cheers
Whats the Photodialer program called ? I was dissapointed in the 8125 and 8525s built in picture contacts, I mean if this sucker can do video calls why wouldn't they let me atleast have a pic of who I wanna call lol. Sometimes I think they treat this too much as a phone first and PDA second.
I believe it is called V2R PhotodialerPPC. Pretty cool compared to a few others I have tried. It is a today plugin, actually similar to the "Five" where you can rotate through the images with your 5-way. When you select a contact it makes that one active and then allows you to switch through that contact's different numbers rather then most others where you can only select one number from that contact.
Now if I can just get my camera working again on my 8525...
Cheers
The camera on my HTC Excalibur has stopped working. It's not just the camera button, because the button still works as SYM. I get absolutely no response when I try to run Camera.exe as well.
I am using 3VO.3.50.033010 ROM. However, I have tried a couple of earlier ROMs and had the same malfunction.
Any help is appreciated.

Probably is hardware , since you have flash other roms and hard reset

Do a hard reset and see if that helps
Little late, but continuing...
I had almost given up on the issue, but since I found this topic, just wanted to try.
So, my camera stopped working. First, partially, showing this message that it couldn't be loaded, then completely. After all soft and har resets I tried, all ROMs flashed, nothing seems to have helped. Any idea on what I should do? Should I just assume I can't fix it?!
Do you have other problems with the device, e.g. run out of power easily?
Can you still operate WLAN well?
Often the battery of older devices is aging and slowly getting dead.
If not, then:
As already proposed: try hard-rest first.
If you are on a cooked ROM: try with a shipped ROM.
If that does not help you may need to dis-assemble the device (not easy) and clean up the connector from the camera to the PBA. Still not helping: replace the camera - or the device.
So...
well, as you mentioned, my battery is easily out of power, but i guess the problem is the cellphone cause the two last batteries i recently bought have no difference in performance to the one that came with the phone itself. after 8h it usually discharges completely. disassembling is something i'm not sure i'm doing, but, thanks for your reply!

No.
There is an updated Sense 5 camera apk available that may or may not solve your problem, but if the camera problem is not directly related to your gsensor working, or not, at the time it crashes then it is the app itself at fault.
But this is an ongoing discussion on this forum and search would have pointed you at many relevant threads as well as the updated app to try.
Use search.

Hello, I've been having this M8 since January 2017 now.
When I got it, it had no issues. After a while, the battery, was faulty, started turning off the phone at random percentages. Got it replaced and was all okay. Now a few weeks ago, the back camera stops working. I thought the hardware was at fault, but a few days later, it works again perfectly. And now it has gone faulty again. Right now, if I take the camera and use the rear cam, it would stay black for about 5 secs and crash to home screen without any message.
The front cam works perfectly.
I've tried a RUU flash. I've tried reconnecting the camera. I've done a ROM change. I've tried safe mode. Tried opening it in landscape and in potrait. Not of any help.
What should I do guys?

Yep! The problem occurs based purely on luck. Right now, it's fine.
Was the solution for this problem found? Or true soruce of crashing camera problem?
For a few months ago, my M30's front camera doesn't work. Sometimes the rear camera works but when I switch to front, the app freezes and then I've got to close it. I tested front camera by dialling *#0*# but it says FAILED!!
Any solution anyone?

I checked just now, it works fine. I tried various angles. Everything works fine. As I asked, it may be due to some hardware trouble or something triggering it.

I read on Samsung Community that a user with the same camera error had to go to service center and had the motherboard changed. I believe it IS a hardware issue

Yup, does sound like hardware issue. Just FYI, Samsung current charges are exorbitant, and they in some countries FORMAT whole data even for smallest of things, irrespective of hardware or software issues (f***ing idiots). So, please beware of the 2 points.
