[Q] Is my phone camera broken??

I've been having this problem with my phone's camera, every time I start camera this "pink" split screen will appear and the camera app crashes.
What's going on here? (and no I haven't dropped my phone, yet)

Well find a few camera apps on the market and see if they do the same.
It's possible the camera is damaged, in which case you would have to resort to warranty.

I downloaded other camera apps and they work fine, this problem seems to plague the native camera app. Very odd. Has somebody else faced this problem?

Very odd. You could try a reflash to see if it solves any problems..

The problem returned again! I'm pissed, I started getting this issue after I flashed last time to JM5. I might have to re-flash or just wait for Froyo to come out (if it ever comes out )

[Q] Camera Autofocus issue

Hi
After I updated to ICS
My camera can't focus
Did anyone have the same problem?
I make sure there are no film strip
I factory reset a couple times, I reset camera setting.
I tried using different app to take pictures and no results.
I suspect it has something to do with Whats App because the same thing happened to my sister Galaxy S2 LTE but all she did was reset camera setting to fix the issue.
Anyone got any idea?

if factory reset doesnt solve it then it is probably hardware issues.
send it to Samsung service center if you have Warranty

Camera problem

I have a camera problem with my one, which stopped working and I think this is the same problem that appears in several threads. I tried several roms and apps and when I managed to keep the app without crashing, this is what the display is showing, and the camera captures. I wonder if this is software problem, or hardware. Also front camera works fine. Thanks a lot.

if your device is new and still has warranty i would suggest you to get a replacement. I see some purple tint and there's no solid solution for that yet.
your problem could be hardware issue for all i know.

Thanks for the reply. I haven't got warranty, since rooting, so I'm screwed.

Since you have rooted the device, i suggest you try a different ROM, that might help if its some kinda software or kernel issue

"Camera Failed" after upgrading to KitKat...??

Got a strange issue here. My camera was working fine on JB (stock rom & also on KnoxRaid 2.6). After the kitkat v2 release of Knoxraid I decided to give it a try. Everything is perfect except whenever I open the camera I get "Warning - Camera Failed". I restored back to mj5 thinking it was maybe a hardware thing but no, the camera works perfectly on stock mj5. So I decided to test Knoxraid 2.6 (non kitkat version) and again, camera work fine. I have asked Drakeymcmb what he thinks about the issue, but I think it has even him stumped. He suggested I try the other kitkat rom leaked by designgears. So again I restored back to mj5 and then tried the designgears leak. No luck, camera failed. I have wiped my internal memory and tried everything I can think of. I am hoping maybe someone has run into this issue and knows a fix?? Please help!! Thanks!

Not having any camera failing, but I'm experiencing a pretty substantial lag after taking a photo.
When i hit the shutter button, my screen will say "Processing". If the camera moves AT ALL before the "processing" is done, the picture will be blurry -it almost looks like I've moved the camera during exposure.
Anyone else having this problem?

I notice that as well. I just turn the smart stabilization off and problem solved. Turn it back on when you wanna take pic in the dim light situation and be prepare to hold the phone still.

Thanks!

Were really talking about 2 completely different issues here. I wish my problem was that the camera was too slow, but mine will not load at all...

[Q] Camer preview flickers

Good day all,
I got my Z1 and updated to 4.4.2. Its a non rooted one. I have issues in camera. The camera preview itself flickers all time, even though pictures taken were clear. I tried clearing cache and data files, factory reseted too; didn't help !!! I Is there any way to overcome this bug?
Thanks!!
Reg,
Raj.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but I also have a lot of noise in the viewfinder/camera etc. (hard to describe exactly but sort of like watching analogue television not quite on the station correctly).. have never seen this on any other smartphone..
My phone is brand new.. seems to really only be a problem indoors/low light etc..
Does everyone have this? coming from an S3 its a bit off putting.

Flickers in camera preview
Yea exactly the same as you told. Is there any app or something to fix this ?? Does rooted phones also has this issue?

There is no difference in Rooted or Not, this is related to the Update, one of many issues. I think there is no fix, just try different Rom, even stock.

Camera Preview not working
since lollipop my camera preview does not work. I can see the small thumbnail but it will not open
