Recently ive been noticing that when i open the camera app i can barely see anything on the screen unless im pretty much pointing it at a light source! For instance in my lounge right now with the curtains open, its 3pm so still light and i can barely see the room on the screen. Its almost like the camera isnt opening the shutter enough to let enough light in.
Ive also got camera fx app installed and that has the exact same problem so im pretty sure its hardware related rather than software.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any solutions for it? Or is my camera duff and needs to be sent off for repair?
Thanks in advance!
What Rom are you on?

Sorry im on Virtuous Quattro Alpha2, but im pretty sure i had a similiar thing when i was on Inquisition as well.
Always do super wipe using mikes script. Im super cid, and on 1.23 HBOOT. radio, 11.65.3504.00P_11.19.3504.29_2. Included kernel with Quattro.
Ok I used the amaze on gb Roms.. you're using ics based roms.. maybe this may be the culprit? I could be wrong but I could be right.

Hello,
I have mine and my wives sensations s-off and rooted and both running the latest Android Revoluttion 3.5 Roms with beats. My phone is fast and everything works great, apart from very occasional black screen freeze and lock up. Quick battery removal/restart fixes it. But the wives phone lags, freezez, loses WiFi. What should I do to fix it? Tried reflashing the Rom, but to no avail. She wants me to make it s on and remove root. Any suggestions before I do?
Thanks

What radio are you using? Is the the new ICS leaks you are using?
You might want to ask stuff like this in sensation Q&A dude. Many people including devs might not appreciate this post in the dev section.
Cheers

P.s don't remove root. Its like going back to stone age

reflash with the full super wipes and if it is the ics rom, its only test version so don't expect it to be perfect. if all else fails, swap sensations to satisfy her
un-root it. your wife sounds like mine. they don't care and they don't want you messing with their phone.
Thanks for all the replies. I super wiped, redownloaded and replaced 3.6.11 AR ROM, and reflashed. So far so good. If it starts acting up, ill just remove the root. I dont need the extra nagging!

Browsing the Galaxy Nexus forums for some ideas for tweaking my ICS-Powered Sensation and came across something which may help people decide whether to stick with the HTC Camera or to use the ICS AOSP Camera in the current ICS Senseless builds.
Simply called Camera ICS, it also has a Pro version.
I've tried the free version and it seems to offer as many options as the HTC stock camera.

Hi I'm currently using ARHD 6.5.5 on a sensation XE.
There comes a time when My Music Player has sound/audio but when I go to Video player/Internet Browser/Apps , audio seems muted and when I put the Media volume to Max, still no sound. my only solution is to restart but after a while the issue repeats. don't know what triggers this. Anyone experienced this?
Thanks
Yep, i've had the same thing happen.
Fixed it with a reboot. Dunno what caused it either.
Try fixing permissions. If it keeps happening after that just reflash the ROM
Got this issue also. But i experienced this while using youtube. Sadly i stopped using arhd because of this. First time using it got a bug like this, really saddened me. Went back to hypernonsense 1.5. No issues at all. No sense also though

Try insertcoin roms , bug free awesome fast stable , rocking just try best
Has anyone ever physically replaced the camera on the Sensation? Mine won't focus at all. It seems like the actual focus is stuck. Before anybody asks, i've searched for 3 straight days and I tried everything. It just wont focus, it seems like it's stuck on one focus position and anything closer than 2 feet is out of focus. It makes the focus noise but no attempt at focusing.
Is sending it in for repairs an option?
Not really, I can get a camera online for it but was hoping I wouldn't have to replace it.

You can either touch the screen to focus on a certain point or if you point it at an object long enough it will focus on it. My doesn't do that on camera or camcorder.

i also get the no focus on anything up close but focus from more than 2 feet or so works great! weird, im guessing that thats just how it is.
My camera has been having trouble focusing lately. I've tried stock ICS, sense 4.0, aosp. None are good.
Kind of been wanting to downgrade to gb to see if it improves.
Glad to see I'm not alone, although it isn't very good news..

right i wish i didnt root this thing the day i got it so i could remember how stock camera was!
I can't automatic focus while recording too, only by clicking on screen. I have stock rom so i think it's just feature.

No, the camera/camcorder should automatically focus.
Been facing the same problem too. Autofocus for macro shot is not as good as my old htc desire and htc sensation.. strangely, if i try macro using object that has text on it i.e newspaper it works.. I thought the problem is the HQ camera mod, but when i reverted to stock camera, the problem persist. I still yet to try the camera on official GB rom. If anyone tried it I would love to hear the result.
Htc Sensation XE, ARHD 6.6.3
Every ROM I'm on instagram freezes when I go to post a picture. Then my phone resets itself. Happens on ordroid and arhd

Same problem here, the wife uses Instagram on my phone and it kills it pretty much every time.
Freezing here too
Regularly freezes my phone, particularly during the application of tilt-shift and/or when clicking on the top right hand side arrow to process pic and upload. Really annoying. E-mailed them as well, hoping for a fix. In the meantime, no one cracked this yet?

this problem rekated with apk, not phone. i'm using xe with arhd without sny instagram problem but i tried same apk on desire, ideos x5 and galaxy ace, and noticed errors. if the program wants to work, it work like a charm. if it doesnt want to, you have nothing to do.
generally iphone port apps doesnt work stable.
I'm having the same issue
!! Help

its new to android. give it time before the billion dollar app is stable on our phones. my phone has issues with it too.
sent from the Nudy Bar.
Since the most recent update it seems to be much more stable.
And by much more stable I mean being able to process and upload a picture without a hard reboot
I've found that if I reboot BEFORE I use instagram, it works perfectly. If I do NOT reboot it freezes. I've learned to work around this issue by rebooting BEFORE use. Then it works perfectly for me. My current Rom Beats by Grogg 3.0 v.B. but I think the reboots will work with ANY Rom. Give it a try. It solved my freezing issue, perhaps it will also solve your issue hope this helps! Good luck
Works for me!

There had been confirmed issues with some specific drivers and some specific apps (skype and istagram eg.), you can take a look in this thead for the drivers you might want try.
For those with Instagram problems, those drivers should fix it :

Will this work with pkmn rom?

Absolutely Ricky!
They should work no problem with every ROM, clearing cache is also a good thing to do.
what do those drivers do exactly ? And I noticed this is for an adreno 200 but the sensation has adreno 220 ?
