Front facing camera - Amazon Fire Phone

Since the last update my front facing camera hasn't worked. Is anyone else having this problem? Are there any easy fixes? I don't really want to factory reset my phone if I can avoid it.

All custom ROMs suffer from this issue, only Fire OS can guarantee working in-app camera usage.
Again:
You have to use Fire OS if you want a full working camera.

[Q] Netflix broken

It won't load past the red screen. Any tips?

Build number JWR66N breaks Netflix on all devices. Wait for the next OTA or install it yourself with one of the guides.
I'm still on JSS15J though... no updates yet.
I had a similar problem. I just cleared the app data, force quit, restarted the app, and logged back in. I'm on JSS15Q though. Not sure if that matters.

This does in fact matter. As far as I know, netflix is broken on JWR66N and will only work on the JSSXXX builds.
You can fix this issue manually here. You must have the ADB tools on your computer, and can get them from this thread. This is how I fixed mine. Just make sure you pay attention and know what you're doing.
EDIT: I recommend going to JSS15Q from whatever build you are on.

A reboot didn't do it for me. This only happened on my first run of Netflix on my new N7. Netflix was one of many apps that were automatically restored on sign-in, and I'm thinking it restored the data along with it. I don't recall being asked to sign in the first time I ran it, when it failed to work properly. After clearing the data and signing in, it worked fine for me. Either way, it works now.

I am having the same type of problem.... I have a rooted 2013 N7 on the latest firmware (JSS15J).
If I use the netflix from the play store I get stuck on the first red screen with the spinning logo and can never get past that point. I have tried uninstalling about 100 times, clearing app data, force closing app, rebooting, etc.... nothing works for me.
I had to go back and install an older version of netflix to at least get it working at all.
Is this happening to anyone else and if so please let us know the exact steps needed to work around this.
Thanks!
I was experiencing the same problem and now after waiting two days its back up

To be quite honest, stock android on this device is buggy as hell so far. I am a stock/rooted whenever possible kind of guy generally speaking(I always prefer it since you can get OTA's etc), but I was forced to switch to CyanogenMod 10.2 KANGS on this device, due to crazy bugs. They are now a thing of the past. From the smart-cover bug to the GPS bug to the Netflix BREAK, all of these problems are no problem for me. So go get PA or CM or something until Google/Asus gets their **** together! :good:
Same here. Stock non rooted. Can't get past the red screen.

Same issue here on non-rooted JSS15Q. It works after a reboot though but eventually stops working. No idea, but frustrating as hell.

Same here works after a reboot. But have to login again. Hopefully everyone is writing reviews in play store about the app not working.

If you go back to 2.4.0 build 939, the bluetooth audio problem goes away, here's a copy from my backup:

May need to install, and do a force stop / clear data before it connects. The Netflix Android app seems to have more bugs than functionality.
{"result":"error","error_code":"1012","error_string":"Cannot find requested object id "}
Got that message when I went to dl.

Fixed that, not sure what happened to the URL but I re-shared and generated a new one that's working.

Unable to use front camera for video on certain apps

I can use it for the regular video app or snapchat
it does not work for instagram or vine. I am only rooted without anything else installed
It could possibly be the app's inability for now, but wanted to check with all of you first. I understand there are other threads like this, but not for the note 3
If anyone can test and let me know that would be great
I'm completely stock, and instagram errors out saying cannot connect to camera

that is good to hear actually. Probably just on the app side of things then. An update should clear things.

Netflix

The Netflix app still wont work on this thing. 10.5 WiFi. Anyone else experience this?
no problem here. does it work on your other devices on the same wifi network?
Yeah It works on everything else - 2 phones, a kindle and a couple of laptops. That's what the guy at Netflix asked too - he was useless ☺. It just goes to the spinning circle forever....
Hi, I believe there is a limit to the number of devices you can link with your Netflix account, worth checking if that is the case

have you tried to clear data and cache on app then uninstall or whatever then put it back?
Tried that too. Even tried an older version of the apk. The only thing I haven't tried is factory reset which I am very reluctant to do.

Any update on this? I just bought a 32gb tab S 10.5 and am having this same problem.
Fixed it - had to reset to factory and then it worked. Pain in the arse but now everything is fine

Glad that worked for you. I just tried that and still have the problem. I've got 10 days to take it back so maybe I'll try on another one.

Perhaps changing build prop or changing permissions.

I unrooted and it worked fine and the second I rooted it gave me issues again. Just applied the tar that's all. I even tried cloaks for root.

I think it checks for root and doesn't work if you are.

I did. I then get access to the camera but the thing is when I try to flip the camera o the front, it ends up using the wide angle lens also a bunch of static is visible. When I try to switch into the wide angle lens properly then the app crashes.
