HTC One M9 :: Camera App Always Crashing / Will Not Open?
Jun 15, 2015
I just get the m9 today and the camera app will not open. I get the unexpected crash message and the phone crashes the app back to the home screen. I tried doing the software update via my carrier and it didnt solve. I tried clearing the camera app data and restarting in safe mode but didnt solve. tried factory reset but exactly the same problem.
Every time I try to open the camera on my phone, a brief black screen appears and the app fails to open. Any other apps related to my camera (Snapchat, Facebook, etc.) experience the same issue. I have cleared data/caches, I have restarted my phone in safety mode, I've tried removing the SIM card -- all to no avail.
This is what comes up when it crashes:
I literally just got this phone after I had to send in my previous HTC One which was exhibiting a different slew of problems (purple haze and being perpetually "awake"). Needless to say, I'm very frustrated. Can you all think of anything else I should try before having to send in a second phone in two weeks?
I can't open the settings menu - it just keeps crashing.
It started today and the phone had been getting really hot and draining battery at twice the speed it normally does, so I wanted to check battery usage in settings, which is when i discovered the fault.
Whether I try to access it through the main icon or via the pull-down tray icon, it just flashed white as if it was opening a new window, then returned to the menu.
I figured it was a case of hard reset as, due to the fact settings was unavailable, I couldn't even check for a new software update. So anyway, I hard reset and the problem is still there.
What's weirder is for the first 40 minutes or so it crashed in the same way as before, now it pops up and says 'sorry this crashed, would you like to send an error report'.
So I did. the error report says 'report type: crash, package name 'com.android.settings' ....
firstly the camera shutter cannot open to take photo and now can open but the screen is black, what and how should i do to take photo, I did try to search methods to try but it did not workout on my iphone.
When I start the camera, it open the screen but does not open the shutter.and goes into a screen indicating something in progress and then in few seconds - goes back to the locked screen.
I'm on Android Version 5.0.2 thru AT&T. My camera seems to occasionally crash when i first startup and it seems to crash about 50% of the time i take video in the middle of the video. I don't have any high resolution settings. why it keeps crashing?
that happen, if , 2 or 3 ours using my bb storm2, the when click "camera".... splash screen appear..about 1sec.I used OS ----> 9550AMEA_PBr5.0.0_rel1656_PL4.2.0.442_A5.0.0.1015
ERROR CODE(splashscreen) - I cupture it ------------------------------- ARM11:ISTO :Excep ARM9: t Failed Task:
I just got my new galaxy s6 today and so far everything is good but I can't however access camera settings when I go into camera and click settings it crashes and just goes back to where I would take a picture I've already tried restarting the phone and even clearing cache and my phone is up to date.
I cannot seem to convince my camera app to operate. As soon as I touch the icon, it produces a window stating that unfortunately the Camera has stopped. Tried to switch off and on the phone several times, but to no avail. My Nexus 5 runs on 5.1.1.
Another issue that I'm seeing is that the camera roll (in the lumia camera app) will frequently cause the phone to crash/reset. I've had it happen at least 5 times so far.I suspect it has to do with the living images.
I am using a Lumia 1020 and it worked perfectly for almost 2 years until today... I installed time lapse studio excited to make time lapse videos... And then created a project from my files and deleted the picture file in the app and then found that it actually deleted every single photo in my camera roll and all other albums were also empty. Now have been trying for almost 4 hours to get Lumia camera to open but it crashes on launch. I tried many soft resets and re installed the app twice but no results.
From 10 tentatives that I tried to open the camera, in 4 times the camera crash ... A black screen occur, until the message "App camera must be closed" or a lot of red/pink lines occurs in the image and freeze the camera app too.
I saw red lines with my S3 with Cyanogen OS ... It's appears conflict between software x hardware...
I down loaded an app that required a barcode scanner. After installing the app. I noticed that when I clicked on the Camera Widget. The phone app would hang and force a close or indicate the camera App had failed to initialize. After some trouble shooting and back off the 2 apps I loaded I am still having intermitted issue with the camera app hanging or not initializing. how to reinitalize / reinstall the camera app without wiping out the phone and starting over?
My messaging app, mail app and camera roll won't open. Everytime I try to open it, it doesnt fully load and crashes.My power button doesn't work, so i cant restart it. I have an iPhone 4s with 16G memory.
Since upgrading to IOS 5.1 when iPhone 4 is locked the camera icon does not open when selected. I have to unlock phone with my passcoded to use the camera. The feature worked with IOS 5.0.
I have two issues. I took a picture using Nokia camera app which is on default. Some pics didn't save.
Next is when you take picture. When u go to photo albums. You see a link below saying open in Nokia camera. How come pics have that link and others don't? I took some smartcam pics too look at later and can't open it up and do the action shots and other stuff.
I've only had my Blackberry Bold for about 2 months. The camera was being a little funny and won't zoom so I switched off my phone and took out the battery and replaced it to try and reboot the phone. Now it won't turn on!When the battery is in the Red LED light at the top right corner lights up then goes off when the Phone starts up showing the BLACKBERRY Logo on the screen with the Loading Bar underneath. The bar then shows that it is loading but almost immediately it crashes and switches off. It does this repeatedly though I've tried removing and replacing the battery several times.I'm sure it is not a problem with the battery as I had only charged it the previous night and even tried using another battery from my friends Blackberry just to double check but the phone continues to repeatedly turn on, crash, turn off.
when I try to open my camera it says "could not start the camera. Close other applications and try opening the camera again ". But there are no applications open
I bought my e72 last May 2010.The last time I used the camera was mid June and took around 140 pics. I just noticed last night that my camera won't open.I tried already soft reset but still it doesn't work.
i cant get my camera to open.. whenever i try to opent the camera i get a message that says "could not open camera, close applications and try opening the camera again". i have tried wat it says and even had battery pull but its still not working.
I have an IPhone 4S. The camera won't open. i had think i had previously filled up the memory, but i have deleted at least 40 pictures since then, and the camera still won't open.
Secondly, i had tried to download some of the many pictures i have shot on my IPhone (great having a camera in my pocket) but the IPhoto on my older MAC powerbook G4 laptop (running OS X 10.5.8) insists on starting at the beginning of all the pictures, even though i say not to download the duplicates, and gets hung up/frozen halfway through ignoring the duplicates and freezes up, so i never get to download the new ones. Why is this? How can i choose just the new ones for I-Photo to import?
Info:PowerBook G4 (17-inch Double Layer SD), Mac OS X (10.5.8)
