Dear,
I just bought Realme GT Master edition phone. My front camera isn’t working properly. I have updated my phone. Cleared camera data & Cache. Even tried third party app. Removed onscreen protector. Nothing worked. Every time front camera hangs when I switch to it. Please help me to solve the problem.
Thanks & Regards,
Opel
Hi, did you find a solution?
Nope. Went to service center, they replaced it.

I love my LG G3 but the front camera has been giving me trouble.
For the first week its great (except my wife keeps borrowing it for selfies haha). Then suddenly the front camera stops working. Trying to activate front camera in any app (I tried LG Camera, Google Camera, Hangouts with Vid call) results in that app locking up for about 10 seconds then crashing back home screen on a pretty usable phone. Do it once more and the whole phone becomes unusable - even long hold power off won;t work, requiring battery extraction to recover it.
I have tried removing data and cache from the camera app and that didn't help.
Tried a software data reset (via the menus), that didn't help.
Just for kicks I enabled ART in developer menu to see if that possibly helped, it didn't (side note: ART seems snappy)
So I am at a loss now, next step after this is hard reset, but I am not optimistic that will achieve anything the soft reset didn't.
Anyone else encountered similar issues?

It didn't. Result seems the same as the menu based reset. Not unexpectedly.
Hi there,
Just got my Lg G3 and all works great but after a while (few hours) the same problem accured...the camera crashed when i switched from rear to front and after that even rear wouldn't work.
I did factory reset...still same problem. Then i focused on my case...i realized that this problem appeared when i installed quick circle cover (it has no wireless charging on the back cover) soo i removed it and installed original. Camera works like a charm now!

Hi There,
Did you manage to resolve this issue with the front camera? I am having the same problem.
Thanks
Guys, do a hard reset..not a soft reset.
Anyways, its seems that there is a problem with the hardware itself since you mentioned that you've tried several camera apps and still force closing. Try bringing it to a service center..you might be able to get a replacement.

I have searched and scoured the forums and have not found this issue. Maybe someone can shed some light...
When I would open my camera, sometimes the app would open and freeze (blank screen with only the back button showing). I would go in and clear the cache and data then force close the app. That would fix it temporarily.
Then there was a firmware update. Now my camera opens to a blank screen with the back arrow only.
I have cleared the cache and data, done a cache/data clear on the google app, even a factory reset. Then resorted to using the LG software tool and re-installed the firmware. Still not working.
I know there is this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2090959, but my app is not crashing. It's just doing nothing like the camera is supposed to be working.
The phone has not gotten wet (as far as I know of), nor has it been dropped. It also has an Otterbox case on it.
Has anyone else had this issue?
My nephew has the same phone on Verizon and has no issues with his.
Note, I am running Android 5.0.1
Us Cellular is ordering a new phone for me. I did all above items that they would have. He was stumped also.

LG G3 [D855] Front camera not working
Hi,
My LG G3 [LG-D855] front camera not capturing clear picture. Its showing blur image, compared to front camera back camera clarity is very bad for the last one week. I bought it from eBay 5 months back, now its creating this issues.
I tried with other camera apps [Google camera, etc.,] and I reset the default camera app. Still I'm facing the same issue. Its not even reading the WebWhatsApp QR code.
Please anyone help me to resolve this issue.

A few days ago I have ordered and then replaced the LCD of my Zenfone 2. Sending it back to repair the display was as expensive as buying a new phone, so I decided to take the risk. I followed the instructions I found on the internet and I succeded. Both touch and display work after replacement, and all other components work too, except for camera functions. Now when I open any camera app (Google Camera, Zenfone Pixelmaster camera and so on) I get the infamous "camera failed to launch, please reboot your device". After cleaning up both application cache and system cache (I have even tried flashing an older firmware version) I decided to check both the flat cables connecting the front camera and rear camera to the phone's motherboard, with no success.
Any clue about how to proceed ?
Any chance that trying a different ROM (such as Cyanogen) might fix my problem ?
I have read that many users are experiencing that nefarious camera message, however I haven't found any effective solution so far, and without a clue I can't figure out if one of the two cameras is broken or damaged...
Suggestions ?
Thanks in advance and have a nice day

UPDATE 1: installed CM 12.1 following tutorial. Everything working except for camera. Tried both Google stock camera app and A Better Camera (free trial). Google stock says "cannot connect to camera" A Better camera shows a black background and does nothing else...
UPDATE 2
I just received a spare Zenfone 2 from another guy that, after breaking the screen, decided to sell it for spare parts instead of repairing it.
I have turned it on as soon as it arrived via mail and..guess what ? Camera issue is there too!
I have tried the following:
1) swap both camera modules and motherboard to my Zenfone 2
2) vice versa (put my camera modules on the newly received motherboard)
3) hard reset and reload all system images on both phones.
Issue is still unsolved. I'm starting to think that the camera problem is a "sort of anti tampering" implemented by Asus.
As soon as you unscrew the phone, something breaks - or at least detects the tampering - blocking the camera.
There's no other way to explain...
Any suggestion ? Did anyone effectively solved the problem ?
Please, don't leave me alone in this thread..

ZENFONE 2: camera failed to launch
Dear Azrahel
My Zenfone 2 phone exactly encountered the same problem, probably because of a software update/installation and so on. I simply rebooted the phone into the SAFE MODE (simply long press the power button then LONG TAP the shutdown then confirm the reboot into the safe mode). In the safe mode I found that the camera works normally. Then I simply rebooted the phone (in order to enter the normal environment) and now the camera works! I hope that you can fix the bug by this simple process.
Did you find a solution for this? I'm encountering the same issue after I replaced the display. The connectors seem to be in well. Maybe I broke something small internally without even knowing and that causes both cameras not to function.

Hello,
my GF just got her brand new zen phone 2 and it's front camera isn't working. The first thing we did is tun the automatic update, so I have no idea if the camera worked before or it's the update who messed it up. I'll attach the software and hardware information screenshots.
We have tried to reboot it, update the camera application, force close and clear cache as well as installing other camera application, but it didn't help/work. I have also installed phone tester and it showed information only about the back camera, no front camera (on my nexus 5 it shows both front and back)
Any suggestion on how to fix\resolve the issue?
Thank you

RMA it, that's what the warranty is for.
I suggest if you bought it from a shop, take it back and see if they'll swap it, they have to in Australia if the item is not working properly .
Hi I've been experiencing some troubles with my camera and after searching through forums for a fix I saw that many people had FC's on camera app by zooming or the can't connect error.
I have an lg with a similar not the same issue. It's on stock v20u no bumped no root , camera app only shows black and after a while FC's , no can't connect error.
Third party camera apps shows only front camera no button to swich to rear.
Thinking that might be a faulty camera I've replaced it with a brand new. Still black.
Then factory reset the phone, after that camera still black and FC.
Clear cache and data of camera app. Still no luck.
Motherboard problem ? No fix ?
