Nexus 4 black image camera

Hi! First of all thank you for your attention.

I'm trying the examples provided, and they work great except the camera of my nexus 4 is rendering all the time black, so I can't see the background (but i can see the augmented reality objects). In my unity using the webcam works fine, is just in the mobile phone and is not a custom app, is using the samples.

Any idea will be welcome :)

Thank you very much!

Which Unity version are you using?

There is a known issue w/ some devices that are running specific Android versions. Please try the Unity Background Texture Access sample. If that works properly it will help to isolate the problem.

i just tried the sample you told me and the camera in this sample is working correctly.

is there a way that I can run the other samples without having the black image?

Thank you!
