Hi everyone
Anyone have any idea how to the fix the camera on my phone?
When taking a picture or focusing the camera will freeze, the sidebar will slide across, and then the force close window shows.
My front camera is also failing.
Tried restoring stock camera from June via titanium backup however does not install.
What other steps shall I take?

So i've been using my mytouch 3g fine the past few weeks with cyanogen mod 5 but recently i flashed cyanogen mod 6 and i didnt like the progress on it yet so i did complete system wipe and i restored my nandroid backup of cyanmod5. The problem i noticed was that when i turn on my camera app (the default one) it works fine until you take a picture. after the picture is taken there should be a little preview box with the picture on the top right hand corner but it's just black there and when i press it nothing happens. so then i put my sd card in my computer and the picture didnt save either. So i downloaded two other camera apps FxCamera and cameramagic and both of them forceclosed when trying to save. so i go into my gallery and it crashes without even giving me the message. So im guessing this problem has to do with the gallery app right? and if so how can i fix it?
help please?
Hmmm.... Haven't had any problems with mine. Have u tried wiping and reflashing?

Which version of cm5 are you using? The first roms of the cm5.0.7-test series had problems with the camara previews. Make sure you are using the latest cm5.0.8.
Also you don't need to wipe prior to a nandroid =p
After the Verizon OTA JB update (4.1.2), My Gallery will not open. It just says "Error while launching application." The default camera app does the same thing.
Third party apps (LittlePhoto and Camera ZOOM FX) seem to be working fine, and I am looking for a good Gallery app in case I cannot get this fixed.
I tried clearing data/cash for Gallery app. I found somewhere that this was supposed to fix this problem. It didn't.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

i would just wipe data in recovery
you will need to backup, texts, call logs, contacts… if you want to save
how to.. in my list

Really hoping there is an easier way to fix this. Looks like several people have the problem (judging by a google search), but no solutions yet.
Motorola's "My Gallery" was removed by the update and replaced with Google "Gallery" app.
If My Gallery is still listed (and tied to the camera) it sounds like your install didn't install completely or you restored things after the update.
You may want to flash the JB fastboot files, factory reset and reconfigure.
That was it! Looks like the camera app was also replaced. I was using App Manager. It kept the "links" to the old apps in the icon folders. After removing the old camera and gallery icons, and then adding the new ones, everything works fine.
Thanks tcrews!

Hey
Running aokp ROM 4.1.2
I turned on my phone this morning and noticed my set wallpaper was missing. I tried to locate it but my photos were all gone. I went into another photo app and they showed up so I am lost what to do.
Shortly after my phone rebooted and was loading for 5 mins. Eventually it loaded up and still I can't not access my photos in gallery. Very strange so I forced closed the app but reasons i dont know as i cannot get it back as normal!
Is their a way i can just use quickpic as it shows all my pictures and delete the gallery stock app? also i am wondering if their is a camera app that would work best with quickpic, as the stock cam will try to find the stock gallery app to store my pics to.
Thanks if anyone can help me.

Okay guys so earlier today I tried to take a picture with my razr i but the camera button wasn´t working so I decided to enter from the launcher. I couldn´t find the camera icon (Im using a custom launcher but it is not in the hidden apps). Used pixlr express to take the picture and it reads "No camera application found. Your camera may be disabled". I checked and the camera is NOT disabled.
I had been using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206206 for a few months without any problems so I had a backup from MotCamera.apk and MotCamera.odex and if I move them to /system/app I can use it, but when I reboot it dissapears again!
any help would be appreciated thanks in advance
hello there,
i just had an issue with an camera icon which stupidly was placed somehow underneath my dock at the homescreen.
i decided to try uninstalling the camera app so the shortcut would be removed, saved the app with titanium backup though in order to reinstall it via backup.
unfortunatelly the camera now has wrong orientation so when im in normal orientation it only shows half of the screen as if i would be in landscape mode.
i installed a camera app from google store to test if this would act normal but it doesnt as well.
any idea how to fix this ?
thanks
hey i fixed it by restoring philz backup , still would be interesting to know about the cause of this issue because i had this with my note 3 also until i flashed another rom.

Find an app that's can lock apps rotation and set it to landscape. I had the same problem
Same thing happen to me start last night, I tried few different camera app, works fine in google's camera app, word lens, but camera zoom is same problem as sony's camera app.
my guess is that one of the rotation function didn't able to call the position function, not able to reset or clear the memory,
is there a way to reset the camera app? I don't think restore backup will fix it, if the backup is already went bad.
