"Unfortunately, Camera has stopped." message, please help! - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
On my LG G3, camera displays the unfortunately camera has stopped message. I cannot access the camera using this application nor through any 3rd party applications. I can however access the front facing camera using snapchat but not the rear. I have tried the method of clearing cached, data then force stop it and reboot. This does not solve the problem. I have also rebooted the phone in safe mode to determine if it was interference from any 3rd party applications however even in safe mode I got the message, which leads me to think maybe a hardware problem. Can anyone offer some advice?? The device is not rooted. I go on holiday next week and was looking forward to taking some good pictures with it too!
Regards
Ajay

did you make any mod for the camera ? like video quality or bitrate ?
if you did your problem is with the permission of the files you changed. it happended to me too.
i decided to reinstall everything since a wipe didn't solve the problem. later i discovered that i forgot to chance the permissions. so the reinstall was unecessary...all i had to do was give the right permission as was stated in the post about the camera mod.

Do you have a 3rd party flashlight app installed? I had a similar issue and backtracked my installed apps a bit. I removed apps that I knew had access to hardware (removing each one at a time and rebooting my phone after each) The 3rd try was my flashlight app. After rebooting, the camera was back to normal. Also... the front camera likely worked because it doesn't access your camera's flash. Just a guess on that last part mind you. Hope this helps.

but a cse flash deletes all apps which he had done and still no luck, seems like a hardware issue to me

I agree. A hardware issue possibly caused by an app that isn't talking the camera flash's language. Just saying... I had the exact same issue less than 12 hrs ago. I see your point though.

Bug Report: [ROM][WIP][PORT] CyanogenMod 11 M8 4.4.4 [BETA]

Hi there,
First off I would like to thank AngSanley for his work on the 4.4.4 CM 11 ROM, absolutely excellent development and keep up the good work. Hopefully I thought I would make a bug report here since i still can't post in the X development section:
1. Phone.apk problems:
a. Operator and Caller names coincide with each other (Issue was mentioned before in the thread however still looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley for a reply)
b. Repeated Missing Calls crash the com.android.phone process and the only solution is to call the missing call to get the phone app running again. To emulate that leave the call until it ends twice and see what happens
2. System Processes
In Jelly Bean and Ice Cream Sandwich you were able to disable system stock apps such as Browser, email, messages and it was possible to install the playstore apps as a replacement. I was wondering if it's still possible to enable that in the current ROM or it's not a bug as of the new releases.
Note: This also includes Trebuchet since I'm not currently using it.
3. Reboots in some cases disables the home button action in UDNB and prevents the lockscreen process from running properly which requires me to reinstall the ROM and Gapps while clearing cache and Delvik or by force stop and enabling lockscreen (which gets me to problem 2 sometimes).
Thank you again for the ROM and looking forward to hearing about upcoming updates with the ROM.
For the first issue, the problem is known. I mentioned it but it's difficult to fix.
For the third issue though, I found a solution. I disabled UDNB and installed Soft Buttons app. If the buttons crash, I disable them from the app and immediately enable them again. I reboot and... that's all!
(as for the second, I use some stock apps, so I can't tell you for sure)

Hopefully it gets addressed because it makes the phone literally unusable. The current list by AngSanley doesn't show it so I hope it's addressed to him.

No problem it's fine. The imitation of it can be made if you even disable messages for example. It shows immediately that the phone loses functionality especially in the lockscreen process.
I'm really looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley on these. Especially on the phone process issue .

Unfortunately I won't be able to do that since I just bricked my phone while formatting to the original stock version lol. I'm currently stuck on Nokia Emergency Connectivity and will be sending it to the Nokia care center next month haha. I'll be doing a fresh install when I get it back.
PS: I'm guessing no solutions for this problem outside the warranty am I right?

[Q] permission pop-up issue?

Is anyone else getting a constant "permissions pop-up" that states something along the lines of 'blah blah controls phone dialing' then it gives you the 15 second choice of denying the app or allowing it (with the option of never showing that message again....which doesn't work). It comes up every 5 seconds and is making the phone a joke to use. There was a fix for the ZenFone 5 and I was wondering if there is one for the the 2 as well.

Maybe someone else out there who hasn't read/responded yet....
If you are rooted you could try the 'fix permissions' app available on playstore.
No guarantees it will work as i have not used it on this device. It had worked well for me on other devices.

Hi guys I think here is the issue is described in asus forums zentalk ( i cant post links yet) search for "Permission popup every second"
Apparently a firmware upgrade will fix it
Firmware download WW_2.15.40.13 and above should fix it.
But i have tried to copy the new firmware to the root directory but its not picking it up .
Very frustrating for what looks to be a good phone !

Only blackscreen with ui when I open any camera app

Hi there, my problem is: when I open any camera app, I can see only the camera app's user interface, nothing else. Both of the cameras are not working.
What I've tried: downgrade to 4.3 4.4.4 5.0.2, factory reset, full internal storage format, clear camera app data. I am on locked bootloader.
Any ideas my friends? I used my camera more than a half an hour in a day :crying:
Here are some screenshots:
I will try to post them, I can't do it right now.

First obvious guess would be hardware. Was it working fine until you did something, or was it just all of a sudden?
The only other thing I thought of was that there's sometimes other folders in the camera app folder, like 'arm' or 'lib', etc. You probably would know if you did something to that, though.
Last thing I did, I was recording a video. I watched the video, then I wanted to go back to the camera, and it said camera not avaible, I restarted the phone, and then it started the black screen issue. BTW, I can take pictures too, I can feel it's focusing sometimes but if I look into the image file with a hex editor, it's got only zeroes in it.

2 final guesses - bad kernel, (have you flashed a custom kernel? If not, reflash stock one via Ft), or some 3rd party app that messed with your software. Just try uninstalling stuff one-by-one.

Question Realme GT ME - AOD not work

After updating Realme GT ME software to Android 12, AOD does not work even though it is turned on in settings. Maybe someone can help solve this problem.
Problem solved. I did a complete phone reset. Everything works beautifully on the new UI 3.0
Hi,
did you restored with Google Backup after the reset?
I read in the web and in this forum, that the problem is common, and some people experienced it also after a full wipe restoring from the Google Backup, so you need to reinstall manually all the APPS and data.
Then I found a post that talk about the problem after a system restore, from Android 12 to Android 12, made only to clean the system. AOD worked before the restore, after no AOD.
It seems that's a problem also for OPPO ROM (seen also here in XDA Forum), know from December 2021.
Because I have 2 GT ME in my family, and some of my friens with this problem, I wrote also to Realme Support, Bug Report and some Telegram Groups, in this moment there isn't a sure way to solve, only the Full Wipe without Google Backup restore...
The only alternative way it's an APK file, but I don't know the source of this file, and if it's "safe" to make a try

We have two GT Master Edition phones and both of us have the issue. I did a factory reset and it was fixed, however as you've already said ír was broken again after Google sync. I will check those links. I wonder how could an APK fix something like this.
Hello I just downloaded it and installed it. Then I think about security. So I removed. But after removing apk Aod started working nicely.

Well because this is for oppo phones originally I think, something about colourOS. Anyway, it didn't do anything else and I removed it afterwards. What really bothers me though is the fact that it can be fixed in a fraction of a second by a 3rd party apk made by nobody. Why is there no official fix for this? Know since November...

Yes, but if it's from Oppo, I think that the certificate should be different.
Anyway I'm curious about the source of the APK...
About what you wrote, if the problem could be resolver with a simple APK installation, it's ridicolous that Realme/Oppo it's facing the problem from several month, and they don't released any simple patch...
From VirusTotal scan, I think that it simply create a user, so could be a simple linux permission problem or similar, on a process, a file or an executable
Searching for a solution, I found this link about the problem of the AOD not working after the update to android 12

in my case it worked, it consists in installing an app from the play store (therefore theoretically safe), when I solved the problem, I uninstalled it.

Thank you!
Worked also for me, and the other GT ME in my family!
Then I uninstalled the app and reboot the phone, all works fine.
A little detail : in the settings of this app the AOD, in my case, was already set to ON with the toggle, I simply moved it to OFF and to ON again and BOOM! It started working, with also the edge lighting!
Thank you again

Funny story but enabling dual apps for Whatsapp, basically another user, I managed to start and use the app, as a secondary app because the base app is still dead!
Now, my question is:
How do I get Whatsapp to function normally again???
Things I tried:
1. clean cache and data - no fix
2. uninstall/ install app - no fix
3. enable miui optimizations - no fix
4. fix/ repair data partition in OrangeFox recovery - no fix
Is there anything else I could try in order to fix this issue? It might be somehow related with the user part of the data partition? But why only this app is affected then?
I'm just baffled by this turn... don't know what to do anymore...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
try with :
uninstall/reboot/install
if still not work
go to : Data/system/dropbox
delete everything
open wsp and send the generated crash log (from that folder)
Well, tried twice uninstall/ install procedure... Same result...
Thank for this info. I'll try.

i said uninstall/!REBOOT!/install
when you reboot, the package manager will delete the app leftover
the app crash because there is some data left from a previous version
try deleting "com.whatsapp" folder from
/data/data/
and from
/user_de/0/
also whatsapp folder on internal storage
Holly mackerel!!!
You know how many times I rebooted this device???
But, now, it worked without deleting anything except the dropbox content you mentioned earlier!
It just went smooth, install, setup, restore backup and all without a glitch!
THX A BUNCH!!!
Anyway, I would really love to know how was this possible in the first place as I did nothing specially regarding this app... and found myself in this situation of not being able to use it anymore... why only this app? Was something some update maybe that broke something?

dosn't matter how many time
what matters here is the timing (reboot after uninstall, once booted install)
