[Q] Front Facing camera not working?

Hello
I've just received my Note 2 in the mail today, popped in the sim card and booted it up. Works fine and it's awesome.
When i checked out the camera, it launched fine and i was able to take perfect pictures using the rear camera, but when i switched to the front facing camera, it just came up with a warning saying "Kamera Mislykkedes" (Translated it means "Camera Failed") with 1 button saying "Okay" which would just close the camera app.
If i tried to relaunch it, it would stick to try and use the FFC and simply give the warning again and again.
If i go into Applications and clear all data from the Camera app, it would switch back to the rear camera and thus work again.
But i simply cannot get the FFC to work, i also tried downloading "Pudding Camera" off the market, and it does the same.
I found some other people having problems with older Samsung phones, and it can have something to do with some apps not releasing the camera app correctly after usage. But i haven't installed any apps that didn't come with the phone (except Pudding Camera, but it didn't work before that either).
Anyone got an idea? I really really really really don't want to have to send the phone back already because of a hardware issue, so that's why i'm here.

Just a guess here but if a factory data reset doesn't fix it, it sounds like a hardware return sorry.

What did you do to get it fixed? I have a similar problem
I have a galaxy note gt n 7000 (galaxy note I) and had this camera fail problem 4 months ago. I have even bought a front camera module from china but the product still didn´t get here. It takes more than a month for these stuff to come to my house in Brazil. Well, anyway, I had given up on trying to solve the problem (that´s why I bought the module) and I usually flash 3 or 4 roms a month (love to mess). So, then, I flashed the ROM super nexus on my phone and opened the camera normally, because the rear camera never had problems and guess what... when the camera opened I saw my face. Scared to death. kkkk. Now, it´s my fourth day using the rom and the front camera is working nice.
I don´t believe most of the users are having hardware issues. I think there´s something related to JB update because ppl started complaining about these camera errors after the update... but who knows. Hope u all have the same luck I had.

G3 Camera not working properly...

I have searched and scoured the forums and have not found this issue. Maybe someone can shed some light...
When I would open my camera, sometimes the app would open and freeze (blank screen with only the back button showing). I would go in and clear the cache and data then force close the app. That would fix it temporarily.
Then there was a firmware update. Now my camera opens to a blank screen with the back arrow only.
I have cleared the cache and data, done a cache/data clear on the google app, even a factory reset. Then resorted to using the LG software tool and re-installed the firmware. Still not working.
I know there is this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2090959, but my app is not crashing. It's just doing nothing like the camera is supposed to be working.
The phone has not gotten wet (as far as I know of), nor has it been dropped. It also has an Otterbox case on it.
Has anyone else had this issue?
My nephew has the same phone on Verizon and has no issues with his.
Note, I am running Android 5.0.1
Us Cellular is ordering a new phone for me. I did all above items that they would have. He was stumped also.

Please anyone help me to resolve this issue.

HTC One M8 rear camera

Hi, my rear camera on my M8 it was working fine until few days ago when it suddenly stopped. In the camera application i am only able to switch between selfie and photo booth. Also, rear flashlight is not working, application is loading infinite. I tried to clear cache/data for camera app, disable/enable, uninstall updates, downloading retrica (it just shows black screen for rear camera). Also, i flash a new RUU MM but the problem is still there, so i guess it is a hardware issue. Anyone had similar problem or any other ideas ? Also, if rear camera is failing flashlight cannot work as standalone ?
After i upgraded to MM the problem was solved. Yesterday the problem returned again. Can anyone help me ? The warranty has expired.
Anyone ?

M8 Camera Problem with LineageOS 14.1

I had my htc one M8 running the htc stock Android 6.0.1 perfectly. Some day I decided to install lineage-14.1-20170109-UNOFFICIAL-m8 wich is Android 7.1.1 for htc one m8, and at the begining every thing runs fine except the rear camera. When I opened the camera application (the AOSP app, the HTC app, whichever camera app) I realized that the camera dealyed a bit to auto focus, after that I could take photos. Eventually the auto focus delays more and more, and now the rear camera never get focus, the image in the camera application shakes indefinitely trying to focus. Another weird thing is that the phone emits a sound when I have the camera application opened, I hear the sound specifically in the region around the rear camera, it's like a repeatedly click. All these problems occur with the rear camera, the front camera works fine. When I first get this problem I flash back my htc stock ROM, to verify if the problem was physically of the camera, but with the stock ROM everything works fine, then I flashed again the same LineageOS version, and the problem starts again, I thought that could be the LineageOS ROM that I was using, and I tested other ROM, this time the lineage-14.1-20170309-nightly-m8-signed, and the problem continues. Right now I had the first LineageOS ROM installed, the one in which all started, and I have not idea what's going on.
If anyone have any idea please leave a comment.
(Sorry for my bad english)
Thanks in advance.

[Android 9 Root] Front facing Camera can't take photos in other apps.

To start, I'm using stock ROM patched with Magisk. Root is fully working and all that jazz. This is quite a peculiar issue, I don't even know where to start. My A50 (W/Canada) is not able to use the front facing camera to take photos in any app other than the stock camera app. This is important to me as I use Snapchat and Instagram frequently. However, I am only unable to take photos with the front facing camera, videos still work perfectly fine, and the preview of the front facing camera also works perfectly fine. No issues with back camera, everything is fine there. I've tried launching Magisk as core only, and undone all my debloater settings. Every thread I see about camera issues said it's either a hardware issue (which I doubt is the case for me as the camera worked fine before root and still takes videos) or a software/kernel issue in which I should revert to stock. I would really prefer to find a solid solution to this rather than revert to stock, so I've come here hoping maybe somebody can possibly shed some light on something I may have missed out of frustration. The only thing I could think would possibly have an effect was the Magisk Samsung 4k60 Camera module which I uninstalled immediately after as it was crashing the camera app when I opened it. Could it have changed a file permanently?
To recap:
Front facing camera works perfectly as intended in stock camera app.
In any other app that uses Camera (including 3rd party camera HedgeCam) I am able to take videos but not photos.
Front facing camera preview always works fine.
Tried Magisk core only mode and reinstalled all debloated apps.
Snapchat gives error (when taking front facing photo) "Snap capture failed. Please try again." all other apps just freeze on (what would be) the photo/photo preview until I exit or switch out of the app then back in.
Any help is much appreciated, and I can share more information or logs if they'd help.
