Hello;
As other people in this forum, I have an issue with the front camera in Pixel 6a. Every time I start camera app and try to use the front camera, a message shows "Could not detect front camera. Please try again later!". In addition, I experience completely OS crash from time to time, when swap from Camera native App to Telegram or WhatsApp to use the camera. At some point the image freezes completely and after 10-15 seconds the phone restarts itself.
Before I start getting messages of "It's a hardware problem", I assure you it's not, because the front camera comes and goes, depending on what I do within the OS. I don't remember exactly what I did to fix it last time, but I was like removing the updates, or disabling services or other stuff, just random tinkering and it started working again.
I should add that before moving to Graphene OS I was using the phone with the stock OS for a month and 0 issues with the camera, so it didn't get broken in the process.
Does anyone know exactly what is the root cause of this? any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
