Hi guys,
Just had my phone 'repaired' by a phone shop, but camera only wants to focus nearby, not at a distance. Does anyone know why? Is there anything I can do?
Already tried reflashing roms, didn't change anything.
They changed the camera unit
I'm running android 4.4.2 sense 6
Front camera is fine.

My HTC One camera is horrible but I think I have nailed down the problem.
The left side is always perfectly sharp. From center to the right side it is out of focus mush.
I am guessing that it's a misaligned sensor.
I am a widely published photographer and I certainly didn't buy this to use as a camera for anything other than record pictures for my normal job but I do know what I am doing.
I ill take it in and test it against a store phone and have them swap it out if the store one is better.
If I had the sharpness across the frame that I have on the left side I would be thrilled with it.
Anyone else seeing the right side of frame quality issue?
I am having no issues with my camera, I love it, the ZOE option is very versatile. No sharpness issues at all, in fact the auto focus works much better then my lte

I am not seeing this issue. This definitely sounds like a hardware problem. I think HTC has been plagued by quality issues, unfortunately.
Phone Replaced ~ Camera Perfect Now
Had the phone replaced yesterday and the new one has a perfectly working camera
I am having the same issue! Maybe i will have to replace it but its been around 20 days since i have the phone...I hope they will...
My very first one did this exact thing. I had it replaced and the new one has been fine.

The thing is that it did this to me but i am trying to reproduce it and i can't!
How am i supposed to get a replacement?
Did it do it for you al the time and under any conditions?
Well with mine it was every single picture, and tapping to try to get it to focus somewhere on the blurry side didn't make a difference.

Hello,
Sorry for that. I've put asterisks indeed.
Anyway apologizes to all.
I would like to repost my question without any swearing.
I am experiencing an unfocusing camera problem on the right side. Is this the same issue you are talking about?

Hi,
I was thinking of replacing the camera on my Galaxy S i9000 because it is ... lets say just bad . Is it maybe possible to replace the original camera from the i9000 with any other smartephone camera, maybe the one from the S2 or something similar ? Would this work from a software side ? Are the connecters interchangable ? Somebody with experience can tell me if this would work remotely in any way ?

Could you tell me why ? software or hardware wise?
There just isn't another camera that has the same connections to be an easy swap, then there's camera firmware, and getting the phone to speak to a camera not made for it.
It would be possible for the kind of guy who actually designs the electronics of these phones, not a job for you or I.
Basically, if you want a better camera then you have to buy a better phone. A shame I know because the i9000 is a great little phone.

I9000 compatible with I9001?
Hi. I have a different question. I want to replace my mother's I9001 camera lens with a new one because it's not working properly.
But searching the web I found that the I9000 camera replace is cheaper and more common than the I9001's. So, will the I9000 camera be compatible with my I9001? For the pictures I saw they are slightly different, but some sites sell them as for i9000/i9001.
No :thumbdown:
I bought 9000 camera in phone service and replaced my self, when you turn phone on and open camera app it writes

In my hunt for a better camera I just replaced my camera lens with a new one from ebay ( about 5 €) and I'm very happy with the results.
I think it's clear wich picture is from before and which one from after the swap

Ok, thanks.
I have looked and looked on this forum for a potential solution to this problem but to no avail, The only thing i found was for the Atrix 4G so i thought i would start my own thread.
The problem is my Atrix HD MB886 rear camera will not initilize, whenever i click on on the camera app, it stays black for a little while the says Camera failed to initialize.
I was a little curios so i have installed a L.E.D app and a ''Mirror'' app on the phone, the L.E.D works just fine and my front facing camera works just fine, however the rear one still has this problem, i bought the phone second hand from ebay and it had this problem, when i first got the phone it was not rooted, bootloader locks stock ROM etc, i have since rooted the phone, unlocked the bootloader and currently running AOSB 4.4 Kitkat custom ROM.
If anyone can shed some light on this situation or try to help that would be great....
Many thanks!

If you need any more information please ask
Have you done a full wipe or format of everything, manually fastbooted back to stock (not using RSD; doesn't matter what stock), and tried it then? If yes, then you might be crap outta luck and have a bad camera module. If it makes you feel any better, my headphone jack went out about a week after I unlocked my bootloader.....but that's what a Defy is for .
You're not misssing that much, the camera quality ranges from medicore to suck....maybe good with perfect lighting and nothing moving all that much....it does the job, but barley good enough.
Yeah I have done all that, when I bought the phone it was completely as if you had bought it direct from a store brand new no modifications etc, since then I have done the formats and wipes etc etc, what I'm now wondering is how easy it would be to change the camera module, is it soldered at all? Or just unclick the ribbons and swap it out, the main reason for the camera is I just moved to the USA and like to take pictures to send back to my family in England, it would be great if I could get this working some how

Not to worry too much however I have installed camera MX and that allows me to take photographs from my front camera quality ain't a big issue it would be nice to get the rear camera working though

Never paid attention to the camera when looking at teardowns. IIRC, it can be done, just might be a pita.
Hey guys,
I have been in xda since android 2.1 , went to iphone 4s, then back to android with the galaxy note 2, and now the lg flex. My phones always had a mid range camera, but this one is terrible, when indoors and poor lighting. It isn't the noise in the image that bothers me, because i know it's a smartphone.
Yet it starts to lag, as if i am using a 1.2 mp sensor, just when moving the camera around it smudges the view across the screen.. Thing is, switching to video mode seems to make things move in real time.
Is it just me? If not, i wonder the reason for this.. Fraustrated for paying so much for this device...
So... I guess flex support is dead

I had camera issue!
Your screen has alot to do with how it functions according to LG
They replace my whole FLEX with a new phone bc my camera stopped alll together
BASICALLY FLASH BACK TO STOCK
AND CALL LG WARRANTY CENTER AND HAVE A RMA DONE
Prolly not what you wanted to here but on the briteside (New Flex )
Hi, I have been using nexus 6 for quite a while now, and I noticed recently that the back camera jolts every second whenever I try to take photos or videos, it just doesn't stop. Also the front camera apparently can't be opened, apps that uses the front cam immediately crashes.
I have been searching on the internet for fix for both problems but I think I am the only one having these exact issues. I have read and tried many of the methods that have had similar problems but none of those seems to have worked.
I think you should send it in for a replacement.

Have you experienced the same problem before? Can you use the front camera without problems? I used to think it was just a software issue because I've read quite a few complaints as well, and I was hoping it will eventually become fixed on the future updates (5.1.1), but Android M is about to be released and still hasn't been fixed.
It's a shame because I can't even use Hangouts on a Google phone.
