[Q] Camera stopped working

hi there
After the update to 4.2 the video function of my camera stopped working. And the pictures i take have a touch of green and thery are blurred/cloudy.
I tried to flash it back to 4.1.2 and to 4.0.4 (with the official factory image) but still the camera didn`t work.
I unsinstalled Gallery.apk with Titanium Backup/root, and installed in manuel back on.
Still the same problems,
Could you help me please to fix my Camera app.
Thank you,
and is there an system check app, to find the problem?
thank you

[Q] Camera not working on non stock ROM

I have a known camera issue in which I cannot solve.
My camera does not work. Any app that tries to get to the camera fails.
I know that is not an hardware issue because on stock ROM the camera works.
Crash report:
java.lang.RuntimeException: startPreview failed
at android.hardware.Camera.startPreview(Native Method)
at com.android.camera.AndroidCameraManagerImpl$CameraHandler.handleMessage(AndroidCameraManagerImpl.java:261)
at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:102)
at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:136)
at android.os.HandlerThread.run(HandlerThread.java:61)
NOTES ַ& UPDATES
- I updated my firmware to NE4 so I cant install CM11
- I noticed that on CWM recovery its asks to ROOT my phone if I dont have one. This ROOT makes to phone to not detect the camera even on stock ROM.
- I used S3Rx_UCUFNE4_AROMA_11-9-14 to install the stock ROM. The camera wont work until I removed the KNOX app.
- I have tried to install ROM cm-10.2.1-d2att_for_NE4 and its the same problem
- Installing different kernels make my phone stuck on bootloop.
- The camera worked for one time only on CM10 after enabling " temp unroot" and than remove it in superuser app. But after this its not working.
Here is that things that I have tried:
- I checked to camera with no SD card so that gallery is empty.
- I updated my firmware from UCUFNE4 to UCUFNE4.
- I have installed different camera apps.

IDEAS
I think that the problem is with the kernel or something with the ROOT.
Any room expect the stock one have broken camera.
I WILL GIVE BIG DONATION TO THE ONE WHO WILL SOLVE THIS ISSUE

There is a corrupt image or video file in your gallery that is preventing the camera from connecting. Look in your gallery for any recent files that just show a black square for their thumbnail and then delete them.
After that, clear data for your camera app and maybe even restart your phone just to be safe. It should work.

[Q] [HELP] Getting "warning:Camera Failed" error popup when camera app is opened!

[Q] [HELP] Getting "warning:Camera Failed" error popup when camera app is opened!
I keep getting this when I try to open my camera or any other third party camera application .
i tried clearing the cache , factory reset, hard reset and also removed Sd card n tried, still nothing.
But i am able to use the front camera on snapchat or on a hangout video call alone. If i tried to switch cameras ,they would just crash.
A fix would be really helpful!!
PS:
i bought the phone elsewhere and cant return it or exchange it

[HELP] Stock Gallery app can't recognize pictures which located on download folder

Hello guys. As you saw in the title, gallery app can't recognize these pictures. Let's say I download one picture on chrome. When I go to file manager app is there. When I go to check to gallery but it isn't there. Anyone knows what's the problem? I am in Android MM v20d by the way.

If you're rooted go into your build.prop, find "ro.lge.adoptable_storage" and change the value from false to true. I'm not 100% sure that is going to fix your problem but it might. Either way it won't hurt anything if it doesn't, and can easily be changed back.

Thanks for replying but that's not my problem☺ @rick09 and everyone else, try to download a picture from chrome. When downloaded go to file manager at download folder. The picture is there. Now, go to gallery app. The picture is not there. Sometimes appears of I reboot the phone but I can't reboot all the time. Hope you understand me now☺

Nope bro reboot is just a temporary solution. The problem will appear again. I find out a little workaround that we can do. Uninstall the updates of Google Chrome and use the factory version that came with a phone. Everything is perfect after that. So it's a Chrome problem. Tried other browsers like CM Browser and Firefox and worked well every time. But that's not a solution because I use chrome as my main browser. We have to send them an email I think to fix this.

My wife is experiencing the same problem on her G4 (not rooted). We tried viewing the image in both a gallery app that she installed and also in Photos, and neither one will pick up the new photo in the Downloads folder until after a reboot.

I am experiencing the same problem.

anyone can pass me the lg g4 stock gallery zip for flash please ?

Chrome has a recent update. HOwever, it's the same I think it's a bug from MM that conflicts with Chrome. I don't have other MM device so not sure.
I hope LG will have an update soon.

Google Lens no more integrated into Camera App after Pie Update

I just updated my Asus Zenfone 5z to Android P (Indian update) today. However, after the update the Google Lens icon that used to show inside the default camera app of the device is no more to be seen. I tried clearing caches, data for both apps (camera & lens) but none helped. I even tried safe mode boot & then restarted the device but naah! Some end users are reporting that they still have the integration intact but a couple of them also report the contrary, on Asus ZenTalk forum. Any help? Is there a way out without factory reset?

Not in my case. I also updated to Android 9 and the Google lens still at camera app. I'm from Malaysia.

Try reinstalling Google Lens. I have upgraded to WW .175, but my integration still there.

What Asus PixelMaster version you guys have?
