Camera not working after update to 4.2.2!

My brand new, shiny C6603 says "Error: Camera not available" after the update I did yesterday.  It happens always when selecting the camera from the lock screen and very often from within the launcher.  The _only_ workaround is to REBOOT THE PHONE.

My camera worked fine before with Android 4.1.2.  And _no_, it says nothing about being too hot or so.

Help?  It would help already if I knew what workaround to do!

Ha!  Found the problem with the help of "adb logcat"!

I had the iseeyoupro service installed that takes pictures with the front facing camera to see if I'm looking at my phone.  A nice service indeed, but this doesn't work well with the fact that the camera is available in the lock screen now.  So, I uninstalled this app and miraculously, I don't have any problems with the camera app any more!
