Tecno K9 Can't Connect To The Camera Fixed (Applicable to All Android Devices)
Are you experiencing a camera issue with your Tecno K9 Device? Maybe not really Tecno K9 but other Android devices?
When you launch your camera it pops-up an error message like this:
"Can't connect to the camera. Please make sure to close other apps that may use camera or flashlight."
I've experienced this issue too but in a Tecno K9 (Also applicable to all Android devices with similar camera issues).
This started all of a sudden, my phone never fell or got bricked or infected by a virus, just on its own! So I had no other option than to troubleshoot myself.
Troubleshooting:
First did a factory reset, after a successful reset, I launched the camera app, it displayed, (so I thought it has worked out), then I tried taking a picture then the camera app got frozen. The camera got stuck that I couldn't do anything more but to minimize and close the app. Then I decided to change the Operating System (OS) i.e flash the device. I downloaded it's firmware and flashed successfully. After flashing the device, I performed a hard reset and boot the device after.
Again, I tried opening the camera app, It opened but after taking a picture it got froze and stuck! Then I realised this problem is not a Software related issue.
I took the device to a hardware technician at my end, who has the same type of device but a scrap one, So I paid for the camera to be replaced and after he did that my device worked fine!
So I decided to make this post as this experience is worth sharing which could help people facing similar issues in their Android devices.
If this worked for you, use the thanks button!
