Problem with camera in ANY ROM!

I've been running different ROMs for months, recently went to Bruce's JB build earlier in August. I'm not sure that what I have here isn't a hardware issue, seeing as it really started to get bad after I had my charge port repaired by phone doctors. Before that, camera functionality was spotty to say the least, but ever since I got it back the camera doesn't work AT ALL. I've tried using different firmwares, kernels, and several different ROMs all to the same result.

This morning I made a logcat and this si the camera error I'm getting...

I/mm-camera(14288): config_proc_CAMERA_START_VIDEO: received CAMERA_START_VIDEO!, ctrl->state = 26
E/mm-camera(14288): CAMERA_START_VIDEO illegal state, ctrl->state = 26

Though I've been rooting and running ROMs since the OG Droid first came out, I post so infrequently to XDA (long time droidforums.net member) that I'm still a noob by XDA standards and can't post to development threads. If anyone has any idea of something I can try or know someone who might PLEASE share. I'd really appreciate it.

THANK YOU!

It certainly sounds like the camera was broken before, and whatever repairs you had done to the device put the final nail in the coffin.

One thing that is almost a guarantee is that if you get a flaw using multiple roms of different kinds (sense and aosp) after doing full wipes, its a hardware problem.

Try doing a full ruu return to stock. If tgat doesnt fix it, its bad hardware.
