Auto focus not working? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got the 4.4.2 update, but I am still unable to take a picture of text on paper and get a readable image.
I see the crosshair in the camera app rotate and lock on, but there is no apparent change in focus.
Is there something I can do to reset the camera hardware? Is it possible there's something wrong with the hardware?

[Q] A way to force the zoom in apps option ?

Hi =),
I'm using a transformer but I have a poor eyesight (handicap), and the zoom option inside apps is really awesome to me. But most of apps now handle the tablets screens and disallow this zoom feature.
So the question is, is there a way to always force this option to be displayed ? A hack inside the sources is possible ?
I really think it will be so helpfull for all people in my case =)

Thank you in advance for you help
you can use an lcd density changer such as

If you have root
Interesting ! But with a lower resolution, android enter in "phone mode" and you lose the "menu" bar with back, and home buttons etc. Not really what I expected^^.
Thank you anyway!
yes at a point it goes to gingerbread mode but you can still make things quite a bit larger before it switches

Strange Green Line in camera corner

Hi,
I used to get a lot of camera shots with my A2 but now I noticed that all pics has a very slim and long green line at the most left part of the photo.....is it related to software? "I mean I haven't faced or *noticed* that issue in stock ICS before" now I'm on SlimKat for 3 months and use it every day (that's why I flashed it over the stock rom in system1) or is it a hardware problem? someone face that issue also or I'm alone with that

Note: that line doesn't appear while talking picture "in viewfinder" it appears only after talking pic and saving it..I also tried other 3 party camera apps and got same line...I tried to change settings from 8MP to 5MP and the line was reduced but not vanished...anyone having this issue please confirm.

Blurry pictures, camera does not focus

Hey y'all!
I'm having some trouble with my brand new S7's camera. I went out to try it yesterday and I somehow cannot get it to focus correctly; when it does so, it focuses only partially, leaving part of the image blurred. I took these pictures on Auto mode without changing any parameters (double-click on home button, point, let it focus, shoot). I tried resetting the camera settings to default and switching stabilisation on and off without much difference. It sure does not compare with all the amazing pictures you can see posted in this forum. Any help?

Looks to me like he was submerged under water and got condensation
Look like bad len and sensor alignment or just a bad len.
In short, it's faulty/damaged camera. Get a replacement

Black app preview list? Help needed!

Hi. I've been noticing that sometimes my brand new 2 day old Pixel phone shows black app previews on the recent apps list as shown in the photo.
Odd that it only happens intermittently then fixes itself.
Also when I take screenshots, it just takes the screenshot as a blank image, despite what app I take a screenshot in.
Had to take the image using the tablet camera.
Anyone else have the same thing happen? And what causes it? Or how can I stop it?
Somewhat annoying and inconsistent. RAM cleaning apps don't appear to fix it either. Just fixes itself automatically.
Other than that there isn't any issues with the device and it doesn't appear to be hardware related.

Hi
I get the same in Recents, some apps show black, no idea why, but doesn't cause any problems, app still loads when selected.
As for the Screenshot, sorry I have no idea.

https://ibb.co/86gQMc3 This is the same photo. The thumbnail shows the image as taken from the viewfinder but when I actually open the photo it is some milliseconds before pressing the button. This is a major problem and it needs to be fixed! Any idea on what might cause this?

I cant open the picture or screenshots you gave.
Yeah, because you don't have ois, even when you press the shutter button, you make the phone move a little. I get the same thing with the front cam
