Camera is not functioning
Ipod 4th gen showed black screen in camera app. had to power it off and back on and then it worked fine.
Okay so when I tried to use my camera app on my iPod 4generation it just showed a black screen and nothing else so I pressed the home button and every thing else was normal but when I went to camera app it was still a black screen so i sat it down and started pressing buttons and when I pressed the volume button it let me use the camera agin but that doesn't work all the time but u should still try it. It might work
Hi all. I've been scouring the internet for awhile to fix my iPhone 1st Gen phone because the Black Screen and the picture button disabled. Mine was unlocked and jailbroken, and nothing had changed. I finally got the patience to crack it open and even though I never dropped it hard, the camera cable was disconnected with the mainboard. Simple as that. Popped it back in and the disabled picture button was now enabled. So go figure, if you got a blank screen and a disabled picture button, the camera cable probably got disconnected. Other apps that used the camera would simply just crash and go back to the homepage.

Either restart your iPhone, or reboot the programme. It happens a bit with the 4S, but even more so with older iPhones.
To reboot the programme on the 4S, this is what I do:
1. Double-press the round home button. This will bring up a row of apps on the bottom of the screen. These are the apps that are currently running.
2. Swipe until you get to the Hipstamatic app.
3. Push down on the Hipstamatic app and hold until it jiggles and a red minus sign comes up.
4. Tap the red minus sign and your iPhone will shut the app down.
5. Press the round home button again - twice.
6. Now tap on the hipstamatic icon to open it again - it should now be fine.

when i touch the camera application it wont open.The photos roll is also not opening
Can someone who speaks (types) in English provide a somewhat decent solution please!?
Also, to whomever posted cleaning the lens or taking a picture as a solution to a camera that isn't functioning: THE CAMERA IS NOT WORKING! Can't take a picture, that is the point. We don't need advice about landscape vs portrait layout, we need to solve why the screen is just solid black and doesn't allow any photos to be taken!
Camera has a black screen and the camera button is grayed out. I've tried everything from reset to restore with a new phone setup. Nothing works. Seems like a serious firmware issue. I'm stumped.
pls try to reset the iphone like this all data will be lost and phone will be locked again if u have unlocked or jail broken it pls confirm and proceed !
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button
at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
pls let me know if helped otherwise i can arrange for camera unit change if u want to do so it is easy not so difficult
