My camera failed last week after installed Microsoft Tag app. And after that, every time I touch the camera app, the black screen appears for like 3-5 seconds, I have to wait until the black screen disappear to take the picture. I searched and everyone suggest that I should send it back to Samsung for warranty. I already wiped the whole system, and Odin, but the camera still fails sometimes. Is there anyway to fix it? Or I have no choice but to send it to Samsung?
Hello, I have a Sprint LG optimus G (model LS970) phone that runs on Android 4.1.2. I rooted (left a stock ROM) it to get rid of the shutter sound. Everything including Instagram worked just fine. Last time I was able to upload and post a photo on Ig was 2 weeks ago. Now 3-4 days ago I noticed the shutter sound came back on my camera. I was surprised as I made changes in the build prop and deleted the shutter sounds audio files. I went and tried to change it back but all the settings were the same as I left them. But now if you put the phone on silent the shutter sound goes away too, which it didn't do before the root. Anyway trying to upload a photo to Instagram it gets stuck on loading phase (after applying filters) and never comes out of it. The video doesn't work either as soon as I'm done recording it just resets back to start. Everything else on instagram works. I tried to upload photos both by taking a picture on IG and trying to upload from the gallery and dropbox with the same result. I tried to restart the phone and uninstall the app several times but it didn't help. What do I do? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Do you have any programs that blocks packets like LBE Security or Xprivacy?

Hi everyone,
I'm hoping you can help me with an issue I've been experiencing since I just got my Moto 360 two days ago that I can't seem to get past. I have a Nexus 5 and it's running Lollipop 5.1.1. My 360 is up to date.
I am trying to use the My Design watch face to allow me to select an image from my gallery or my camera to set as an image for my background. Using Motorola Connect I select My Design, select Customize, then select Pick Image. I then select Gallery. When in Gallery I will select an image. At this point it instantly crashes and I get the error, "Unfortunately, Photos has Stopped." It gives me this same error if I use Photos to select the image or I use another gallery app, such as "Quickpic."
Things I have tried to do to fix this:
- Factory reset watch
- Uninstall and reinstall Android Wear and Motorola Connect
- Uninstall and reinstall all my gallery apps, uninstall all updates to Photos app
- Use different photo gallery apps
- I have paired with another phone and the watch seems to update fine when paired to another non Nexus 5 phone, however when they use the latest version of Photos to update they still tend to have some issues.
One thing to note - when I uninstall all updates to photos (I can't entirely uninstall it) and then attempt to select from the gallery it instantly crashes and says, "Unfortunately, Connect has stopped." At that point it won't even let me view images. So I'm fairly certain it has something to do with Google Photos not being incompatible with the Connect app. Does anyone know of a workaround?
Thank you!
I have the same issue. When I pick an image from Gallery, it says "Cannot load the image!" I have tried resetting the Moto 360 and reinstalling Android Wear with no luck. Pre picked images work, but I cannot load up new images. I can take pictures and use it as the watch face or use the Themed ones, just not from the Gallery.
Having the exact same issue. Uninstalled Wear and Connect, uninstalled updates to Photos, reset watch. Nothing.
Also on Nexus 5 and Moto360.
Same issue here. Can't set custom background on my 360 either running stock/rooted 5.1.1 on my GPS nexus 6. Hopefully a fix is coming because it did work before on stock 5.1. I briefly tried the M preview and hasn't worked since on 5.1(.1) or M.
Same issue here on Cyanogenmod 12.1. Crashes whatever photo selector I use, including the stock gallery. Still no workarounds?
Same here Nexus 6 I had no problems with 5.1 but moving to M then moving back to 5.1.1 its never worked since

Not exactly a workaround, but was messing around with watchmaker premium on Saturday and used that to basically do the same thing as moto Connect's my design face. I actually like that better since I can change the size and position of the clock, date etc. so if you have watchmaker or facer, you maybe could give that a try.
Had the same issue. However, I think that Google Photos was crashing the photo picker because the new Photos probably doesn't have a cropper tool. I cleared the defaults on Photos and then using QuickPic from Connect works to select the image from gallery, crop, and save the watch face.
However, the custom design watch face doesn't appear as selectable on the watch itself. How to get that one to appear?
[Edit] The problem was fixed after installing a system update.

You're spot on - thank you so much for the help. :good:
i am still having issues with this. I used Quickpic to select the picture, but when the process goes back to Connect it still gives me the "unfortunately Photos has stopped"
Still having issues, even with QuickPic... !
On Nexus 6 5.1.1
ok so now since my Photos app was updated it seems like it is working except for the fact that when I save the image i does not show up on the moto connect app where the custom backgrounds are supposed to be. Ahy help would be appreciated.
Same here with my Nexus 5 and moto 360!!!
Switched to a OPO, now images "download" but don't show up in watch face library. Sigh...
In my case It shows "saved" after I select the picture but it doesn't show on recents or as an option for me to select it
I gave up and downloaded the WatchMaker app. Works perfectly.
Same problem with Moto G and Moto 360. I can select only the old images that i have in the Connect.
Hi all,
I bought a ZF2 two weeks ago. So far I like it, solved some issues I had in the first days, but I still didn't find how to solve issues I'm having with these two apps.
1-I used Cerberus for years on my old devices and worked perfectly, it takes a picture using the front camera when someone tries to unlock my phone with the wrong PIN/Pattern. On ZF2 it shows enabled but simply doesn't work.
2-I also use Dropbox with the Camera Upload function enabled. So when I take pictures it automatically sends to my Dropbox account. On ZF2 it only works if I open the Dropbox app, which shouldn't be needed.
For both cases I tried enabling them on Autostart Manager, enabled all apps on Autostart Manager and even disabled Autostart Manager completely to avoid it blocking something. But none of them solved.
Does anyone have any idea of what to do?
Thanks
I have Cerberus too and the camera works, but the photos are all black, I think that it's because the Cerberus take a photo before the camera is ready.

That's weird. I even tried a Factory Reset and installing everything again, Cerberus is still not working. It doesn't even send the mail, not even a black picture.
Try CM Locker's intruder selfie feature. I never had a problem even on CM13.

I bought a brand-new Samsung Galaxy S22 from Samsung this week. Last night, I used the phone camera to both 1) take photos through Instagram and 2) take a video call with WhatsApp. I did not turn off the phone over night and as far as I am aware, the phone did not update or restart.
As of this morning, the camera completely fails to work. The app crashes and gives "Warning: Camera failed" on each attempted launch, and other apps with permission to use the camera cannot use it either. I have tried using the camera in safe mode (still fails) and have cleared the cache and data and restarted multiple times, all to no avail. I have also reset to default settings.

I am really at a loss here. Did Samsung sell me a faulty product? It worked 12 hours ago and the phone has taken on no physical damage that I can see. Insanely frustrating and I've been through all of the (mostly AI-generated and spammy) help pages, all of which offer the same tips that don't work. Does anybody have a solution?
Try a hard reboot.
If that doesn't get it, factory reset.
If that fails... get a refund or new replacement.
