My app crashes on some devices giving me java.lang.RuntimeException: startPreview failed error in "Camera Manager" class in line 138 "theCamera.startPreview();"

It works fine on some devices, Samsung S6, HTC One M8 with versions 5.1 and 6,0.

However it crashes on Samsung S3 with version 4.3 along with other devices
