iPhone 5 camera issues black screen

tq..... it works... same problem with me.. hope have no issues anymore.. tq..

tq haydentruong... it's really work for me... thanks

I tired everything mentioned here, hard resets, soft resets, erase all iphone settings, pressing the camera screen etc. Nothing worked. I then tried an App which accesses the camera, Simple resize it is called. First of all it brought up the black camera screen but after 3-4 attempts the camera came to life, all blurry and flashing on and off. After several more attempts the camera started working in the App and now the camera works as normal. The flashlight now works as well.

Just backup and delete all photos and videos from the device. Make hard reset of the phone (home + power for 10 sec and you've done

THis problem is in ios 9.2 nd i also have the same issue infact my iphone is too cold

a d the error is your iphone needs to be cool down

I had an iPhone 5c with a rear camera that showed nothing but a black screen. [Edit] Sometimes it told me my phone was too hot, when it wasn't. [/edit] Interestingly, in FaceTime switching to the rear camera worked fine -- which made me wonder if it was a software issue. Restoring the phone actually worked for a while, but the problem returned.

For the record, this turned out to be a hardware problem for me. I took apart the phone, detached and reattached the camera -- still nothing. So it wasn't a bad contact (as for some others here). However when I fitted a £4 replacement camera part from eBay, it worked immediately. YMMV, but in my case the actual camera part must have been failing, and replacing it worked. Worth bearing in mind as a last resort.

that's sensational!!!!! it works!!!!!
THANKS

I had the same proble for iphone 5. Mine was a hardware problem. My solution was tapping lens hardly.

Hello,

Restore the Device in DFU mode if issue persists then there is problem with Display

I'm on iOS 10 I did a video group call on line and then my mom called and then my camera is black
