[Q] Samsung Galaxy S camera not working - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
So i tried to use my camera and for some reason when ever I take a picture it ends up being a corrupt file. This only happens for my back camera while my front camera (the one with the screen facing at me) works. Can I get some help on how to fix this problem. I looked all over and most of the questions that I found was camera failed. I haven't gotten that yet so far. And I'm pretty sure that I don't have that "fring" thing installed too.

[Q] Front facing camera issue

Hey,
So I cracked my screen, changed it with OEM new parts, and worked great for weeks after the installation.
Now, I'm having camera issues, back camera works fine, but when you switch to front facing camera the app freezes and crashes, and I get cant connect to camera black screen, and at this point the back camera wont work either, if you restart and clear data on camera app the back camera works again, but front facing will never work. Currently, I;m running stock rooted but I've had this issue with rooted custom roms and stock unrooted. I'm not sure if this is related to the screen change or not, but it worked great for weeks after the screen change. and, I;m having the same issue with other camera apps too, no snap chat installed nor any other apps that could conflict.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!
I am currently dealing with a similar situation. Did you find anything to help fix the problem?
This is almost certainly due a little piece of tape coming off of the ribbon cable. I happened to solve this by cutting a small piece of scotch tape and wrapping it around the ribbon cable so that the underside of the cable is not making contact with the PCB.
I know this is a super late reply but I hope it can help someone in a similar situation!
Hello. So i had the exact same problem as OP. Got my screen replaced (not by me), but a few days after that i noticed that my camera would freeze when trying to change it to the front facing camera. i had issues with messenger and the normal app. i did a few system restores and even unlcoked and installed custom rooted Roms last night. Still freezing on the front camera.
I'm now positive its a hardware connection issue. Anyone else have this issue? I feel i should open the phone and try to fix it.

Rear Camera not working

Hello everyone,
I was one of the brave (and stupid) guys who tried to convert the ultra into a maxx by myself.
After I assembled everything back (new battery and case), I noticed the camera was not working anymore, nor the flashlight or the flashlight app.
I disassembled it many times since then and everything seems fine. The camera module is placed where it should be and the rest seems fine.
Has anyone's camera stopped working?
Mine only shows front facing option now. And I really don't know what to do.
It's probably a hardware issue, so FDR and deleting cache or doing safe mode won't solve anything.
If anyone knows what to do or which replacement part to buy, please tell me.
Make sure that the clip is closed for the camera I had that issue for the droid mini

[Completed] LG G4 with CM14 | 7.1 - Camera is way to slow on normal exposure

Hey guys,
I have a problem with my camera on the LG G4. Note: The Snapdragon Camera is flashed on the device but I tested different apps too. The camera was pretty good on stock and worked well. The internal/selfie camera is still fast and works fine but the external camera / back camera is way to sloppy. While trying to take a photo with apps like Instagram, the Google Photo Scanner or Google Camera / Snapdragon Camera it seems to use the wrong exposure times.
Even while taking a photo of a person in front of a white wall being in room light it's lagging pretty hard and everything is sloppy and slow. Taking good photos is really hard this way. Only when I focus on a TV / Computer Screen it's running fine since the exposure and ISO timing is automatically changed to the correct values. When I move away from the Screen again, it's getting slow and sloppy again.
Anyone had something similar with Cynanogen Mod? I also had the issue with my Nexus 6 before which was really annoying. I don't know if I do something wrong while flashing, but I can't find out whats wrong. I tested the same enviroments with my girlfriends unflashed Huawai P9 and her phone is just running fine without problems. I would use stock software but I really hate all the bloatware and modified Android versions they bring in.
Everything else works fine and the phone overall has a good performance. The issue was already existing with CM13 too. Maybe some driver being installed wrong?
Thank you very much. If you need more informations just tell me so I can give you more infos.

Pixel 2 Camera ERROR

Hello everybody.
Had been dealing with camera faulty error message. Did 200 picture a day ago, and in the morning, my camera did not want to focus on a far object but did focus on the close ones.
The selfie camera worked OK.
After a day of unknown. the back main camera stop working fully. Just a black screen and saying faulty error. After the day it just stops working and always says the camera had closed want to send an error report.
After that, even the selfie camera had stopped working, so I got no camera, Tried everything, even went from 8.1 to Android P. But nothing.
Talk to Google, and they said that it is known issue and will replace my phone, But due to not having one single paper for the phone. (long story) Can not get the warranty.
So my only solution is to fix it my self. I bought the new camera for PIXEL 2. and Today I got it.
I removed the screen, when via JerryRIGEverythning. And did the change.
But my luck, the replacement camera is malfunctioning and it is just going left and right. So I'm stuck until I get a new one. The company already sent me a new one.
But now my selfie is working again, but my main camera is working bearly.
For the guys that have the same issue, It appears that all we need is a new camera. The phone then works.
I bought:
-camera 37 eur
-adhesive for waterproof LCD 5 eur

OP7 PRO camera-s not working

Hi all !
In my hands now OP7 PRO which has been regulary updated and after recent update both cameras stopped working, youtube too !
So, had it downgraded to 9.5.3. and back camera and youtube back again but front camera not (so not even motor poping out)
Tried clean flash with fastboot rom but all the same
Done camera test through *#808# with no success, tried camera motor test, calibration too and no joy.
So before I order any parts just wonder whats the logic behind motorised cameras:
will motor pop out if camera is dead or other way round if motor is dead will that cause software block to launch camera (when you want to switch from back to front camera you getting nothing). ! Ready to order camera or motor but not sure whats actually gone !
Any experience, opinions about this Oneplus issue that seems affect many
Thanks
Got the exact same scenario as you but yet no solution.
Still looking for some answers online everyday though ..
Hi !
Done few tests so far, prove that motor/actuator is working and it must be the camera. Orderd camera yesterday and with a luck should get it in 30 days.
Funny thing about it that once I had Oneplus 5 with exact same issue, ordered new back camera, installed it and all back working than was curious and returned old one and the old one back working too
Conclusion ? No explanation by now.
Update: new camera arrived, installed and all back working !!
