Hi,
I'm sorry if someone already asks this question.
Since the GRI40 update, do you have a force close when you open the camera app and switch with the gallery app ? It happens to me when I do it twice. I got a force close for the 2 apps.
Thanks.
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!

I need some help guys everytime I try to open my camera app it crashes immediately saying "camera has stopped unexpectedly" I've cleared the app data I've cleared the cache wiped the phone clean but same results. I've read up on a few post about a app called last past I think that's the name but I don't even have that app on my phone and that app occurred mainly with m8 users giving them problems with the camera so I don't know why my camera app keeps crashing (including front camera). Notes (I'm not rooted no modifications on the phone, I have two third party apps showbox and whatsapp plus) any ideas or fix? Below you will see pics of the error reports
I'm running the latest stock rooted (2.16.651.4) and just tried to use the Zoe function in camera. It's the first time I've tried to use it since the update, and it's crashing the camera app left and right. When I switch from any other function to Zoe, crash. I bring camera back up, and it'll be in Zoe, but half of the time, it'll crash right away again. If it does stay up, it seems to work until I switch away and back again.
My question is, could anyone share the apk for camera (assuming it'll contain all of the functions including Zoe) so I can try to reload the app? Or if anyone knows of a different fix, I'm certainly open to suggestions. Thanks.

Try clearing the App Cache in the App Settings to reset the camera to the default settings.
Edit: Interestingly enough, my camera app crashes when I switch to Zoe, but without a crash alert (not sure if my custom Rom has blocked those). The difference is that u can open my camera into Zoe, and successfully capture Zoe images.
That's almost identical to my problem. No crash alert, the app just goes down. If, by stroke of luck, I can get it to run with Zoe, I can take images just fine. The problem shows back up when I try to use any other camera function then go back to Zoe.
I did get one error, systemui crashed and it was the report or not error, but that only happened once.
I cleared the cache, and while it doesn't crash 8 out of 10 times, it'll still go down like 4 out of 10. If I cleared the app data, would that smoke my pictures or anything?

No. It only clears the App data for the camera, making it as 8f you opened the camera for the first time, pop-up tips and all.
Well, I cleared the app data, and while it didn't completely fix things, it's definitely crashing less. If I last used the camera in Zoe, the next camera launch crashes, along with a random crash when switching from another function to Zoe. It certainly ain't perfect, it'll do for now I suppose.
Hi my gallery is lagging when i scroll up and down to the point the image arent showing up on the thumbnails
saw another thread that saying that it is due to the bixby remapping app, i indeed had that app before but it was a long time ago
tried to clean system cache and also the gallery cache yet no luck
anyone else have this problem and any solution for this?
edit: went to safe mode tried to open gallery app and scrolling on gallery is smooth, went back on normal boot then all is well..
no idea why this happened

From experience on previous android phones, after every major os upgrade its advisable to perform wipe (factory reset). I did after upgrading to oreo
This solves all weird minor problems such as this
