Right on Mark, One of the reasons I found out was a lingering process that was locked it. I killed that process and the camera service responds fine now.
The second time it did this I found out that after the camera goes into preview, an image is snapped (this is the app I am testing that takes pictures automatically every few seconds) but right after the first picture is snapped on this phone the Camera service dies. This is still puzzling cause like I said earlier this app works fine on an identical phone. I will check to see if I am setting the resolution of the preview or the picture to be something outside what this camera can handle? Also I saw messages that the Rolloff feature is not supported, no idea what that is. When I set the autofocus in the manifest the phone (again running 2.2) said that this feature is not available, which makes no sense since 2.2 does support autofocus.
