Camera is broken. When I open the camera it just crashes. I had lineage OS rom installed and it stopped working. I tried switching the rom to pixel dust and it still didn't work. I tried flashing pixel factory images and it still doent work not sure what I should try now. If you have any suggestions plz let me know.

This one has been giving me a headache all day.
Just got a GS3 from Sprint, obviously the first thing I did was throw on a custom recovery and flash Cyanogen. For some reason, no matter what version of Cyanogen I flash, no application can use my back camera. I have wiped all caches, fixed permissions, cleared the gallery cache (as some suggested) with no avail.
Here are the weird things: The front camera works. I can use it in any application, but the back camera always hangs or ends with a "Can't connect to the camera" error. In addition, if I factory default the phone, the camera works fine - so it isn't a hardware issue.
Would love some suggestions on how to proceed!
I really appreciate it!
As a follow up, I tried flashing my cam firmware with the ones found in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006128 out of desperation. It resulted in my camera no longer working - even on the default rom unrooted.
:crying:
So after flashing MHC19J via Clean Core, I can no longer connect to use the camera. What's even weirder, is that I downgraded back to my previous ROM, and now the camera has the same issue. I have no idea how to fix this. I have uninstalled the camera app via system remover app and reinstalled it. Issue is still there. Tried clearing data and cache, still not working.
Any suggestions? I have never had this before.
I have the same problem, could you find any solution?
I have to same issue too... help?

I'm having yhe same problem, and it's acting strange, I wass on stock N when camera didn't started, rooted installed custom rom, and it didn't start neither.
Reverted to stock MM, and didn't start, upgraded to stock N again and worked just fine, after rooted and installed custom rom again it worked perfectly, and moments later didn't started, Rebooted two times and worked, later it didn't started again.
Tried to change vendor, rebooted in safe mode, nothing worked, any clue what might be the problem?
SOLVED: flashed the vendor again after installeg rom and camera started working,
Thanks!
Hi, after a while, the problem reappeared.
Again i've flashed the vendor.img and camera worked just fine for a while.
If i reboot to safe mode camera works fine but one time the camera didn't start even in safe mode.
So i can't find a proper path for this problem.
I've recorded 2 logcats, - at the first one camera worked fine
- the second one camera didn't start

Where did you buy? My phone was repaired by LG by warranty after the infamous bootloop issue and now camera has errors sometimes.

I'v bought one on second hand, from a bootlooped device. For. Me, it worked, i'm not 100% sure it will work for you but i'd try it if i were you. If it doesn't work you can sell it after.
Hi, the rear camera and flash seem to not be working a few days after installing Viper on my M9. Camera worked for about 1-2 days after flashing latest Viper ROM, but then stopped altogether. Anything trying to utilize the flash also doesn't work (HTC and Google flashlight). I've tried wiping the camera's data & cache, and I flashed the upgraded camera software that is available on Venom Hub, still no luck. Launching the camera app shows a black screen for a few seconds, then crashes back to home screen with no error message. Front camera works fine. Service provider is Sprint. Recovery is TWRP. I know that I could likely get a functioning camera back by re-flashing the Viper ROM or another ROM, but that's time consuming, and I'd prefer to only do that as a last resort. Any help greatly appreciated!
There is no fast way. Reflash the rom over the top, it shouldn't erase anything as you are recovering, not upgrading. Otherwise you're looking at going back to stock to test.

this happened to me without any software change (that I know of) just a hardware change. I even bought and installed a new rear camera which now allows the use of the front camera but the rear is not detected in the app and the flashlight just loops forever with a "loading" message. I am also SPRINT
Hey I recently bought the OnePlus 5t and it was working fine,but now the camera app crashes and the back camera just shows a blank screen,I am able to use my front cam via third party apps,but back camera is completely not working.does anybody else face same problems and is there a solution? ( PS: I already cleared cache of camera app,wiped cache by pressing volume down and power button,used safe mode and also did a factory reset and it's still not working)
I am facing the same issue, I tried the same things you did. I did see on one plus forums that rooting the OS fixed the problem but I don't want to do that
Try to re flash stock (latest) Oxygen OS if that wont help probably you have faulty device.
Any solution? I have the same issue and I wouldn't like to buy a new one
Hi all
All of a sudden, camera stopped working on my Nexus5X. I was on AquariOS at that moment. Camera crashes every time I try to open any camera-related app. Rebooting in safe mode may help for one shot, but more likely not. Doesn't matter whether I try to use front- or rear-facing camera.
What I did:
Clean reflashed AquariOS - same error
Flashed Google stock 8.1 - didn't help
Flashed PureNexus 7.1.2, on what camera definitely was working when PureNexus was actual - nope
Took the phone itself to repair shop, where camera was replaced, still FC. Therefore, it's not a broken camera, looks like a software issue. I'm lost
I did flash appropriate vendor image every time I flashed new OS.
Any advice will be highly appreciated.
