I brought a Nexus5X few days ago. I tried to test an android app on it. It keeps reporting error:

W/CameraBase﹕ An error occurred while connecting to camera: 0 D/TAG﹕ Camera Does Not exist

I print out the Camera numbers by Camera.getNumberOfCameras(), it says 2. I also tried to do Camera.open(1), same thing:

W/CameraBase﹕ An error occurred while connecting to camera: 1
D/TAG﹕ Camera Does Not exist

I ran this app on other phones like Nexus 4, it works fine. Any idea how to deal with this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

It is Nexus 5X. I cannot find the correct tag. – Wei G Nov 19 '15 at 06:10
Have you declared `uses-feature Camera` on the Manifest? – reidzeibel Nov 19 '15 at 06:13
Have you added the necessary permission? – Christopher Nov 19 '15 at 06:50

... and Nexus 5x runs Android 6.0. Have you checked the runtime permissions? – Christopher Nov 19 '15 at 06:53
I did write: in AndroidManifest – Wei G Nov 19 '15 at 15:48

Problem Solved! Thank you reidzeibel and Christopher. The problem is I have to go to Setting->App->MY_APP to add Camera to its permission. :) – Wei G Nov 19 '15 at 16:13
