    Do you have Springtomize 2 installed?

    If so...then check the "Capabilities" section.

    If not...then...idk...disable Mobile Substrate addons one by one...checking to see of the camera works each time.

    It is not the jailbreak that caused this...buy most likely a tweak you installed.

    No i dont have Springtomize 2. And ok i was in there earler. But had no luck. But i never shut all of them off. And im not even sure when the last time my cam worked. But i could try to do a restore and see if it works later. Am at work now.

    It is best to NOT restore from a backup when you are restoring to resolve a problem.

    Just defeats the purpose. Problems get "backed up" too.

    Use a really old backup...or one better and setup as new and don't use a backup at all.
