Camera issue

[Erica_Lynnnn]

Hello all! Apologies if this has already been asked or discussed.

The camera itself, facing out, is perfectly fine but when I switch the view to the camera facing me, the program gives me an error message: "The application Camera (process com.android.camera) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." and then I have to force close it.

I'm quite the n00b at Android, having come from a Blackberry where a good ol' fashioned battery pull would do the trick. But what do I do here? Have any of you been experiencing this?

Thanks!

Not being a smartbutt, but have you tried rebooting? It does fix alot of things on Android devices as well.

Also, did you notice it started after you installed any particular app?

 

[Erica_Lynnnn]

Oh, I reboot regularly just to keep things working properly. And I still experience the same issue.

As far as any particular apps... hmm. I'll try removing a few that I've recently installed to see what happens. Heh. Thank you.

Fortunately I haven't had this issue yet BUT I think the way people have been fixing it is by going into settings -> applications -> all -> camera, then tapping "clear data" and/or "clear cache".

i had this problem,go to settings>applications>manage applications and find the camera, click it and clear the data this will fix it

 

[Rem]

Whoops, I missed a step. But, yeah - what rsk2mc said.

 

[Erica_Lynnnn]

If I clear cache, does this mean my pictures will be erased? (I feel so silly, I'm usually good at these kinds of things.)

Nope, your photos are safe!

 

[Erica_Lynnnn]

YAY! Thank you guys! It worked. I still would've been sitting here endlessly poking at the screen.

Sorry for being off topic, but has anyone found an easy way to take a photo of themselves? (Holding the back part of the phone towards you) I find it difficult to push the snapshot button.
