Meizu MX4 camera locks up (OTA13), need help with diagnostic

 

After tacking a few pictures, camera in my Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition locks
up, i.e. Camera App displays black screen, and if I try to restart it, it
says that this app does not have permission to access camera. Rebooting the
device helps, but only for a few more snaps.

It seems to happen randomly, sometimes only after a second photo, and
sometimes after 10th or so. It seems to be linked to locking the device
when the camera is on, or maybe switching to other apps, or a combination
of these behaviours, but I'm not sure.

I can reproduce this behaviour with some effort, so I took a look at dmesg
output on the phone, but I'm not sure I see antyhing incriminating. The log
seems to be the same for "healthy" photo and for "broken" one, both
containing a fair number of error messages

[mt-i2c]ERROR,454: id=0,addr: 54, transfer error
[mt-i2c]ERROR,460: I2C_ACKERR
[CAM_CAL] I2C send read address failed!!
[CAM_CAL]I2C read liteon e2prom failed!!

The only thing I have is that I see a lot more mt-i2c errors after bugged
photo:

What other diagnostic can I gather before submitting a bug?
