    I'm on an unrooted Droid X with 2.3.x. Camera keeps closing with a short prompt that says, "Oops, cannot open camera. Please try again later." Help? I hope this isn't a problem with the hardware. Just a small software glitch. :(

    Try rebooting the phone. If that doesn't help, erase/reset it from within "settings".

    Also, try downloading a third party camera app and see if it works

    Take battery out, and sd card, reinsert both, turn on. This fixed a camera crash problem with my friend's Evo.

    Uh the SD Card does nothing and a battery pull is a bad idea for an EXT4 filesystem.. But it's the reboot that worked.

    He tried rebooting before that and it didn't work. I googled online and they said to do that, it worked. It was something about mounting the SD card, I can't really remember.

    When all else fails, reboot.
