Can't use back camera while video call in WhatsApp - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

When I try to switch into back camera while in the video call in WhatsApp the app freezes and it crashes after some time. And on the other side it says "Poor connection. Paused video". This only happens in whatsapp. In other apps the back camera works fine. I've tried everything but nothing worked. I'm on pixel experience 11 (plus edition). Can anybody help?

Whatsapp Camera issues following Oreo update

Hi Guys
Updated my Moto G5S Plus to Oreo 8.1 a few days ago using the commands on XDA. All is working great however I have an issues with WhatsApp, isolated with its Camera.
When I try to do Video on the Rear camera for video it seems to "zoom" in and I cannot zoom out. Its like jumping to max zoom and getting stuck.
With the front camera it seems to be VERY dark, the preview I see when recording video looks good, however when it plays back before sending its almost 100% dark, as if the light was never on?
Ive tried disabling the default camera, reinstall whatsapp all the usual stuff. I would assume if this was a widespread issue with the Whatsapp or Oreo update there would be more threads on it however I cant find anything.
Anyone else had this issue?

Click to collapse
i have this problem too
The problem I have is that messages do not arrive unless I enter the application. The camera thing happened to me only in a couple of occasions where I recorded and it seemed that I had zoomed but it happened to me in the camera application not in wasap.

Camera can't record sound when taking video

Hi, I recently baught a tablet Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 plus. And there is a strange issue with it. After installing some communication and chat software no matter what, everything is working perfecly with microphone, Camera can record video etc. But at some point (sorry can't spot the exact problem), when I plug headphones into the tablet or something else. When try to record video from normal camera or Open camera software the sound is gone. It seems like no microphone is present or something else suppress it. Every other app is working perfectly fine (skype, viber, messenger...), every of installed applications has full capabilities for talking with and without video. Camera and microphone are working fine there. Since I reset the tablet with factory settings all goes normal and camera can again record audio without issues. But at some point camera no longer can record audio. I also tried to change some app permisssions from settings but it doesn't help. So do you have any idea what can cause the problem?
Best regards

Background Hardware Use (Mic/Cam)

Hi,
I seem to be having trouble with background hardware services (specifically the cameras and bluetooth mics):
1. Bluetooth headset calls through messenger apps like viber or whatsapp loses use of the microphone around 1 minute into a call (like being muted). I have to unlock the screen and switch back to the app to get microphone use back.
2. The background video recording app (SCOS) loses control of the cameras (both front and back) and cannot use it (maybe cannot instantiate?) around a minute after the screen is turned off. Switching cameras or restarting the app is the only fix.
I have already disabled the Battery Optimization for the concerned apps, plus as many services as I can find, but still the problem persists. The only solution is to keep the screen on, which nullifies the point of using a headset and a background video recorder.
This seems to be connected with Android P's new privacy settings
Anyone have an idea how to solve this?

Face camera issue during video call

Hey there,
If i want to switch to another app during a video call (in facebook messenger), the face camera turns off and back inside the mobile.
It was not happening with my previous phone, i mean the camera was still running whenever i was switching on another app during the call so my friend could continue to see me.
Is there any way to fix this issue ?
Thanks.
Boorg
