I have the same problem, same gionee, I, tried focal app and camera doesn't open.
I erased all app data and cache, made factory reset and nothing. In hardware information app front Camera don't appear. I beg u, Hlp plz

1 Try a few camera apps from play store (if u have kk install google camera app)
2 If every app turns the same problembit could be a hardware issue
3 To be sure of that flash a stock rom and test the camera app.
If by now you re not able to use the front camera you should consider send the phone to repair

thank u

Hi, thanks for the help but none of your steps solved my problem. I show to u a comparison between 2 gionee e life 7

Has anyone solved this issue? I have exactly the same problem. It seems to have happened after I installed the official update. I have tried several roms, cleared cache etc..

i think its must be a hardware issue

i tried and no solution so far. It must be an hardware issue..

Force close when switching to front camera

Hi all,
just got the Nexus S yesterday. I was playing around with the Camera app and as soon as I switch to the front-facing camera the app force closes. It will force close when I try to re-open it (probably because it is trying to open the app with the front-facing camera on). Couldn't get it to work and had to factory reset it so that the app boots from the front camera.
I tried to google it and don't seem to find anyone else with that problem. Have anyone else experienced this?

I can switch to front camera and back without issue.
If you have the problem again, maybe try going to /Settings/Applications/Manage Applications, then ALL, then find the camera and just try clearing data.
That might avoid a factory reset and wipe of the phone. I don't believe this would impact your pictures you've taken, but safe to have a backup first!
Same issue. It's a temporary solution, as the force closes happen once you go into Camera and try to switch to the front facing camera after clearing data.
Thanks for the replies.
So is the issue hardware or software?
i would get it exchanged just because... it isn't supposed to be doing that stock
So, I updated the phone to 2.3.1 and tried to install tango (known for supporting front camera). Tried to video call and front-facing camera won't work.
Problem with exchanging it is that I'm from Canada and bought the phone on Craigslist (I do have the gift receipt though)

Before i was trying to get um frontcam and updating homebase rom after upgrade to 3.4 with 5.3a.. its gave me black lag screen and force close and it says camera failed to initialize after few try..

Double posting certainly isn't going to help. To me it sounds like a hardware failure.
I have the same problem as you if solve the problem or have any information I'll be gratefull if you share it with me. Thanks
@ the home screen. Hit the Menu button, go to Settings>Applications?Manage Applications... Select all and find "camera" Open it an hit the "Clear Data" button. If it does not resolve, try also clearing data in Gallery as well. IF that doesn't work, could be a hardware issue. Hope this helps!
No luck until now but im quite sure its not a hardware problem. Is there any way to test camera hardware failure?

Are you on a stock ROM? The reason I am asking is I have had a similar issue, but mine stemmed from me taking a swim with my phone. After I took 7 days to dry it out etc.. the phone powered up with no problem. The only problems I was having was with both cameras.. I was recieving the FC's and/ro Initialization errors...
At the time I was stock... I flashed the Pudding SBF 4.5.91 via RSDLite and my back camera started working with no FC. I do however have what I feel i is a hardware problem with my Front camera, as when I select it I just get a black screen,lock up, then FC on Camera. I will also get the Initialization errors. The only way to get any camera to work again is to go into the stock camera app and clear data. Then I can open any camera app back up again using the rear camera.
Have you tried different camera apps? Such as MIUI Camera, LG Camera, or Camera360 to see if you get the same message?
Im on hombase... I tried all camera apparently but none of them works. My frontcam works just fine... I wonder how to reinstall the camera firmware or update it.. I guess this problem occurred since I mod the ymfrontcam...

Maybe you f'ed up pds partition, it contains camera calibration data and other stuff. But you would be seeing other issues as well if you did.
I had the same issue, I went into titanium backup and wiped data for the camera app

I have the same problem. My camera just dont want to focus. Sometimes it starts working again after 30 times closing and opening the camera app. Wiping data, installing other roms; it all doesnt help. I installed an app: lgcamera, and with this I managed to sometimes make sharp pictures. When it works in this app, my standard app works too. But its only temporary.
Hardware is working probably because sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt....
Anyhelp?
I have this problem, too. I believe it is a hardware problem. I disassembled my MB526 to access the camera and found that I can temporarily solve the problem.
It seems like a moving part of a camera with front lens in it was stuck in one position. I slightly moved it by a screwdriver, turned the phone on again and found autofocus working. Sometimes I hear high-frequency sound while camera app initializes a camera.
Before that camera didn't work for more than 3 months. It works from time to time now, so I hope to solve the problem by mounting a new camera module. Tha question is, where can I buy it? What is the part number of this piece?

[Q] Problem with camera app

I have a serious problem with my camera app. when i click on camera, it says 'can't connect to camera'. Many a time it says 'unfortunately camera has stopped working'. I try resetting but same. Camera works after reboot but only for 1 or 2 times after reboot. later problem remains same. Any solution? :crying:
If you have installed any other 3rd party camera apps then uninstall them. Secondly, goto appinfo of default camera and give clear data. Now try out.
I tried the same, but not working. Any other suggestions please.

S8 weird camera problem

Hi guys, I have been dealing with s8 camera problem for months now and decided to ask before I smash my phone into the wall.
Problem looks simple, I start recording and it randomly stops. Its followed by quick flash(the one that you see when switching the camera on) and looks like camera is restarting. It happens after 2,5, 10 seconds or sometimes doesn't happen at all. I recorded a video of my baby and after 20s I found out that recording stopped and I didn't get anything. I tried to use a camera in safe mode, seems to be working fine there.
Does it mean that some apps interfere with camera app? Also tried cleaning the cache which didn't help. Is there a way to find what apps are causing the issue? Is factory reset best option in my case? I would add that I can see those weird flashes even when I'm not recording and camera is simply switched on.
I would appreciate any help guys. Thank you.
Do you try some other camera apk ?

Yes, they worked fine and didn't have any issues. I would like to use an original app tho because I find it much quicker and less complicated. Wonder if it's maybe related to Samsung cloud sync. I'm just too scared to factory reset lol
So you are saying that U never tried to solve the problem by doing a factory reset? That should be second thing on your list, after restarting. xD
