I updated One UI 6.1 in my Samsung A54 mobile. After that, the front camera is not working in video call apps Meet and whatsapp. I cleared caches, uninstalled, and reinstalled the apps. Updated the software and all the apps. Reset all settings and restart the device. Clear camera app cache and clear data. Still, the problem exists. It shows a dark screen while using the front camera for capture image or video call.

Ok. Have you tried reinstalling WhatsApp?

If you have not: backup your WhatsApp chats, uninstall and then reinstall WhatsApp & restore your backup. Allow all permissions and then see if that fixes it.

Ok. It is not WhatsApp or these apps that have a problem.

Is your phone a personal device or a work device. I'm asking to see if maybe there's an MDM or Work Profile related policy blocking it
