Hi guys, when I use Skype or tango the front camera doesn't work. I don't know what is wrong with it. Any one can help me please?

Download the Camera launcher app for Nexus 7 and see if it works from there.

In skype you have to go into settings then at the bottom somewhere there is a tick box that says enable video calling, it is not in ticked by default because of something about it not being perfect yet, works well for me tho.. Not sure about tango.
Edit: if you wanna use the front cam to just take pics normally and for some reason you can't access the stock app the best way is to just download a third party camera app, bought vignette on sale today and that works perfectly too.

Sounds like you have a faulty camera. Probably you want to get a new Nexus 7.

Depends, ask your store or google. But it is alright if it is with google, you will get your new device before sending the old one
But anyway, try to factory reset or flash the stock rom before.

I got "Cannot connect to camera" message in all camera apps on Nexus 7 when running Skype in the background. The other apps started working again when I killed Skype. Its not your tablet thats broken -- its Skype.
Camera is not working in some custom ROMs afaik

You only have one camera. Skype will reserve it, and no other app can get to it if Skype is running in the background. Be aware of what you actually have running.

I come from a Galaxy S and every time I ser the sh*t of camera app is on AOSP... Dotes anyone know a port from other phone or a better camera app.
Please dont spam saying that we have the best camera app.

AOSP are the only ones that work with little flaws. Try searching for camera apps here but most of them have a lot of extra features which we might not find useful.

Download one of the many camera apps from the play store, for instance Camera Zoom FX is popular

Seems to me you're looking for Samsung's signature slightly-exaggerated-color-depth-and-out-of-control-shadow thing, which is pretty common in people coming from a Galaxy phone. I'd recommend Vignette on GPlay; that app will get you the picture quality you're looking for.
Stock camera is solid if you ask me and I take high-end photographs for a living, haha--no fluff no nonsense, it's all in the know-how etc

Ok i know a lot of you guys bought an S5 and it either came with the camera bug, or it came out of nowhere (like mine).
Well i sort of have a solution for this.
Just download the app Snapchat, for some reason this app doesn't make the camera force close since it uses it's own.
It's not the best but in order to do this:
1.Go to the camera on there
2.Just screenshot the screen.
That simple!!
Until there is an OTA update or you plan on getting a replacement, this is the only solution i have figured out so far.
If i helped any please press thanks. ?

What camera app are you guys using? The Google camera app is OK but I'm looking for more control.
Manual Camera is what I have used in the past and it works very well on the Nexus 6 but it is a good app though and I plan on using it for the 6P if I ever get it.
Im not a developer , but if there are some mates out there that can port the samsung camera app for the nexus 6p...I would be over the moon...thanks in advance...
Samsung apps are rarely ported to other devices as they are typically heavily tied into framework

Impossible to port.
Improssible
Thank you gents...appreciate the quick reply...cheers!
