If I try to start the app I hear just the clicks and everything remain black. If I press with two fingers the part of the phone where the camera is located the black image become green or shows green lines. I don't want to unmount the phone camera since it was supposed to be hardware ok and identical to the final version, but it is not and quite buggy. At this point I will write to Pine64 as well and ask about this problem.
NOTE: after pressing hard with two fingers on the camera (without umounting the phone) the camera started to work. I am pretty disappointed about this. Not a good impression about the quality of this component.
Could you post a picture of the module?
Ok, that is good to know that I am not the only one encountering this kind of issue, and it seems to be a hardware issue indeed.
Regarding your request for a picture, I cannot unfortunately get the camera to work again ... I've tried again pushing a bit around the module but without success.
I had the exact problem that you have, my guess is that the green lines appear when the camera is starting to loose the connection with the system board and garbage pixels are output to the viewfinder.
I will try to contact pine64 to see get their opinion on this issue and if I can do something about it.
