Camera adventures on OpO

Hi, I had a similar issue some time ago on my N5.
I turned off the phone waited a couple of minutes then booted it up again.
The camera then appeared in the authorized apps and worked again.You tried a reboot and a "hard reboot" won't probably fix it for you but it's worth the try.
You can also try and switch channels from stable to RC or any other way around...
Sometimes starting fresh also helps (without wiping data of course). -
@applee Thank you! I powered the phone down, waited a couple of minutes and booted it again...
The phone works again!
And the camera flash... does not.Ah well. It seems like we can't have it all... at least, not right now.

Hum, I think I kind of understand this issue.
The camera could lock access to the flashlight so it can't be used by other apps.
And if the flashlight is used first then it may prevent access for the camera app.Some kind of resource lock that is never released...
I don't have a OPO, but it might help someone.
Edit : glad at least you managed to get your camera back (I think camera is more important than the torch feature) -

Been trying camera zoom on OpO for a few days. It worked perfectly......ONCE....After updating to V92, RC channel. Should have tried to snap a pic.

If you click the three dots to the right above your post, you can edit. Very stylish interface, impossible to use.

@moem Thanks. Can't get quote to work again or add text after it. I'm a work in progress.

@farmer Aren't we all! But some of us realise it.
