    still have the same problem ,after Turning of Both the option.. plz help out..

    1. Uninstall the app. Reboot and install it freshly from play store. Worked for me.

  2. Have the latest Instagram version installed, unchecked both the advanced camera features… still no luck. Just a stupid black square where my photo should be.

    Usually a cache or permission glitch rather than the image itself.
