EVO Front Camera Crashes Camera Application
 

I have been trying to get the Front facing camera to work but every time I open up the camera application and switch to "Front Facing Camera", the application turns black and I can't access the Front or Rear Cameras. I have to reboot to access either camera. I have tried hard resetting and updating and neither work. Is there an application on the market that I can use?

Thanks,
Ryan

What I used was the QIK (the blue one) for HTC EVO. I was able to get on a video conference with my cousin who owns an evo as well. During this video conference call I was able to switch between the front and back cameras. Give it a shot

QIK crashes and does a "force close." If it did work we would be one step closer but I really just need the camera.

have you tried taking the battery our and doing a reset? qik worked for me the first time around and the I ran into the same issue that you are...

give that a try and report back...

best of luck!

I took out the battery and rebooted, then opened QIK and it crashed.

how about, uninstalling and re-installing?

Re: EVO Front Camera Crashes Camera Application
 

The camera application is a non-modifiable application, I think it is either a hardware problem or an os problem because it does not work in qik or camera.

hmm...I just tested mine and I can switch back and forth w/ no issue...sorry I wish I could be more helpful

Don't worry, you are of great help. Even if we don't solve the problem many thanks towards trying.

I tried mine as well and was able to go back and fourth numerous times with no issues. Maybe a factory reset is worth a shot?
