[Q] Camera Issue? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

I seem to have a problem with my camera after the update, I can not open the setting for the camera, it self closes as fast as it opens. Does anyone else have this problem?

Go ibto apps and clear the settings, defaults and cache for the camera

works fine on mine. Last resort would be factory reset, but maybe you could try go to settings/apps/camera click on storage and clear cache and data?

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried this and it did not fix my issue. I was hoping that I would not have to do a hard reset!

I have the same problem. It started yesterday. I tried the Safe Mode, Cache delete and the Factory reset, none of this worked. The camera app is still crashing.
I'm going today to the Verizon store, I hope I can get a replacement.
Did you resolve this issue ?

I had to do a factory reset to fix the camera. This worked for me. I would suggest trying it again.
Hope this helps

Random questions:
1) Do you have a memory card installed?
2) Did your memory card come from a previously encrypted Samsung device?
I'm only asking because I had the EXACT same issue, and it led to slow-downs too.
The card ended up being corrupt, and I had to get a new one: problem solved for me.
Just a thought.

Yes, I have a SD installed. I just removed the SD and performed a Factory reset again. Still not working. :crying:
Thank you anyway for the advice.

Did you ever get this fixed?
Mine is not working after the Oreo update.

Accelerometer Stopped Working

It just suddenly stopped working, my phone doesn't autorotate, apps that use the Accelerometer now obviously don't work. for example, my "bubble" app is stuck at 2 degrees x 3 degrees. i tried to restart my phone, and still doesn't work. is there anything i can try to do to fix it? or is there a way i can find out what the problem is?
Anyone know a solution?
same thing happened to me- try a wipe first and if that doesnt work try a wipe and a reflash.
wipe your phone the exact same thing happen to me. you can backup everything using mybackup pro

Hi,
I have the same problem on HTC Legend, got two of them - one for my wife. Curious - accelerometers on both stopped working approx the same time.
I wonder if this could be related to some update or application we installed.
So by "wipe" what do you mean? Probably deleting everything from the SD card or what? Sorry - new to smartphones.
Thanks

Before doing complete wipe, try resetting camera to defaults (menu->setting->applications->manage applications->camera->clear data)
It will basically perform a wipe for your camera only without touching any other settings.
Good luck
Done and done, ive also installed RC7 still no joy, altho i am now getting a black screen sometimes and others it force closes
Possibley the camera it self maybe?
Cheers
Do you have your apps on SD? You may have to reformat your ext2/3/4 partition. If that doesn't help - it's a hardware issue.
Unless.... Do you have any programs that utilize camera (barcode scanner, symmcam, whatever else?) they may be wrecking the chaos. Uninstall?
Good luck

Help, phone is useless

hi all, my phone has numerous problems and nothing seems to fix the phone, so ill sum up the issues
none of my apps work, ALL of them force close as soon as they are opened, I've tried factory resetting the phone, but after the reset the apps are still there with the same problem. The same things happen after i do a hard reset. I've tried reflashing stock and non stock firmwares and nothing fixes the problem, my phone is basically useless.
Is there any fix to this?

I don't know what your warranty situation is, but if you can flash back to stock, I'd take it into an AT&T store and see if you can get a warranty replacement. It's possible there may be a fix to your issue, but if you are in a position where you can just swap it out for a new phone, that may be your best/least frustrating solution.
Have you tried going into mounts and storage in cwm formatting everything and then flashing?
My phone is out of warranty
and yes i've tried that but still no luck :/

When you flashed to stock, did you do a Master Clear also? It sounds like a software issue and should be fixed with a complete system wipe.
I'm going to assume you used some type of backup " tibu " or something similar before you did any flashing ? If so did or how did you reinstall your apps and data ? Cuz if you install system apps plus data it would explain why all your apps are force closing. Only install missing apps plus data.
Do the ethical thing... Go to at&t and claim ignorance to the problem. Always works out.

Camera Issue

Hi guys.
I have a g900a from AT&T. The phone was working perfectly until recently. Now the main camera fails again and again.
The flash works, and the secondary camera works as well. I tried factory reset, clear app cache, etc. Nothing works.
If the flash is working, does it mean the camera it might still be working and it is just a software problem? As I recall, I didn't install anything weird to **** up my camera. And even if I did, factory reset would have solved it, yes?
I have no clue what is the problem or how to fix it. Please help.
Thank you!
