I'm having an issue (sometimes), when I tap on camera icon at home screen the camera app flashes for a moment and I'm back on home screen. I've tried many times tapping on the icon nonstop, it just quits instantly.
But when I start camera app from all programs list or lock screen, it always starts fine.
Anyone experienced this?
What could cause this?
i had the same problem the other day .. my camera app would not open! it just did exactly what you described .. i even closed all the recent apps to see if it was low memory.. it still didn't work.. but a simple restart of the phone cured it ... not really sure what happened but hasn't happened again yet knock on wood

its probably just android being android .. hahaha no but seriously .. prob just a memory glitch or something
Reboot usually cure most bugs for while, but with this particular one it's interesting, that camera would start if started from lock screen or all apps list after it wouldn't start from home screen. Once it started it then starts fine frome homescreen too.
Very strange.
So yea the camera been acting up a lot lately ... It has happened 3 more times since I last posted on this thread..I have to reboot for it to start working again ... Its soon annoying!!! I missed the moments I needed to capture a pic because of it!! Not sure what the culprit is
Just remove it from your dock and place back...that is alot easier than rebooting and should work fine.

My girlfriend's camera app wouldn't start from the home screen or the app menu. I had to connect it to my computer and rename the DCIM folder and reboot the phone before it worked again.

Upgraded to ruu 1.85 - still same problem.
Same issue here. I will try and open the camera app up and it immediately crashes. It doesn't even really open, it just flashes the camera buttons and goes back to the home screen. It has happened to me at least 10 times since I've purchased the phone.
Restart is the only thing that alleviates the issue. Any ideas? Let's keep this going because it is pretty annoying to have to restart the phone just to use the camera.

But when this happens, have you tried any of these:
1) open app list (middle soft button) and then start the camera from home screen
2) start camera from app list
3) lock the phone with power button, and drag camera icon to the unlock circle.
For me either of the above fix the problem, never had to do reboot...
I posed this in a similar thread in the general section, here is a video of it happening.

Moving out of the dock had no effect, Instagram can still use the camera hardware, but the stock camera app cannot, i wonder if it has ties with the image sense chip and is on all the time and crashes due to something....

I'm also getting this problem. It only happened once in a while at first but has now gradually gotten worse and worse. Now I can't take any pictures with my One X. Even rebooting the phone doesn't fix it. It's funny that the Instagram camera still works perfectly fine though.

Hey guys so I have a Infuse 4g running Aeon Rom v1.4 and I have to say I love how fluid it is. My only problem is that my phone will randomly lock up become unresponsive and the screen will shut off and the phone will turn off and not turn on for about ten seconds. It usually happens when im using the music player app and using the internet while doing so. Sometimes it will lockup while opening an app. It will hang there at the black screen until the app loads up which sometimes takes longer than it usually does. Sometimes it will go really slow and move choppy instead of fluid like it usually does. Anyone know how I can fix this? Also sometimes when im listening to music and opening a browser window it will stay at a grey screen for a few moments before opening the page. My phone is rooted and I unlocked it with the SGS unlocker tool PRO version. Thanks in advance for any advice I might receive about these problems.

Two things that that reminds me of: Overclocking and or undervolting. Have you done either of those? The browser window thing could just the CPU showing its age. It is a single core processor, so it does have to switch back and forth between tasks. Do you have the issue with the browser when not listening to music?

Thanks in advance.:good:
So i've searched around and couldn't find anything exactly like what i am experiencing. So on any rom either stock or lollipop custom etc, after a day of use without reboot my touch screen becomes weird ghost touches random click keep opening app and its all over the screen not just one place, before this happens say i'm scrolling chrome when i scroll up works perfectly but when i scroll down its completely unresponsive. Basically i'm just asking for some advice before i take it back to the shop i purchased it from. Does anyone have ideas about what could cause this and what i should specifically say to the store of purchase when taking it back?

Ever sincec I got my LG G3 Stylus, I've got this issue that keeps bothering me a lot. I've searched the net, the phone's configs and etc and got nothing.
Since the phone is on warranty still, I decided not to root it yet (doesn't give me a lot of advantages doing so)
However, whenever I'm using the phone to do stuff, be it watching a video on youtube app, using facebook app, or any other app for instance, sometimes I accidentally touch the screen with my fingers or arm, and it locks. Like a screen lock that happens when you press the lock button behind it. I've searched in every option available on the phone and didn't find anything that could turn out to be a screen lock shortcut or something similar.
Anyone have an Idea what might be triggering the screen lock?

I'm not entirely sure how is that post related to my issue, they report that their phones are stuck on the logo, while I'm having issues with random screen locks (probably a touch shortcut)
