Hi
Does anyone know if it's possible to swap nexus 5 camera with the lg g3 replacement rear camera? It seems to be the same dimensions and have the same connector.(15 pins)
Is there a power issue... Or is the 8mb process done on the motherboard or some other kind of issue?
Thx
My guess that the binaries you get from the stock n5 image would not work. You would need them from the g3 sources every time you wanted to change roms
ok thanks ill give it a miss
Nexus 5 with better camera
Someone has tried something similar? The only wickness of this phone and is a pity that couldn't be replaced

I had the same problem.
Took it to LG service and they changed the motherboard in order to fix this.
So it's probably a hardware problem. I suggest you take it to LG service while it's still under warranty.

i have the same problem . tried wiping the phone , tried changing the camera hardware , the camera app , aida64 cant detect it . any fix yet ?
Delete other apps that use thr camera. I deleted snapchat and then the camera worked fine
This issue hit me yesterday. So far, I've tried restarting the phone, deleting the data and cache for all apps that used the camera, and even made a factory reset last night. But the main camera still refused to open. I've had to conclude that this might be a hardware issue. it could just simply the ribbon cable has lost contact, or could be a deeper issue. I'll try to take the phone apart and look inside tonight. If it is not the loose contact issue, I'd order an OEM camera module and replace it myself. (I found a few on eBay and AliExpress with very cheap price).
Yap. I opened the inner back-cover, yank a few ribbon cables and see if it works. Nope, it won't work. I'll order a new camera module and replace it.
If you have tried different modules then its a big possibility of motherboard fault.
I am running into the same problem, the rear camera seems to be the issue. I have tried reconnecting the cable, and it works intermittently with some apps but not others. I am going to order a new camera this weekend but I am moving continents in two weeks so I am trying to find a fast shipping option here, or just go with a camera from china to get to where I am moving.
On that note, I noticed that the camera appears to have the same part number as the LG G3 (Y472B) though I can find nowhere that confirmed that they are identical parts. While the part number is the same, there is a 4 digit number below it, and I'm not sure if that is a batch number or perhaps a dash number. I haven't found any of those numbers that are the same both for the g3 and flex2, but then, the 4 digit number on the ribbon of my phone is different than the numbers I see on replacement parts.
Can anybody confirm or shed some light on whether the rear cameras of the flex2 and G3 are identical (can be used interchangeably)? If so that would give me a lot more options for ordering!
An update to my post. I ordered an lg g3 rear camera and put it in my flex 2. It appears they are identical as my rear camera now works.
I am having troubles with autofocus but manual works. That seems to be a software not a hardware issue though. But for $15 my flex 2 is now back to normal.
To update, after about a day the rear camera stopped working but would work occasionally.
After a few more weeks the phone started looping restarts up to the lock screen then died all together (it would still charge and display it was charging) I reflowed the main board which appears to have solved all problems but I hesitate to advocate it as it is fairly risky and by many accounts only solved issues temporarily
LG Camera Rear work occasionally or camera fail
When the Camera work occasionally, motherboard is the problem. I changed the camera module and the same situation, (LG G FLlex 2 original module), not work, reset, reinstall android with LG Up, all, but not work. As she does, some components it has a (cold soldering). The only option is to warm the 250-300 degree with hot air in that area or other motherboard. All LG's have the same problem, replace the assembly line LG!
Hello,
my phone freezes and reboots randomly, battery drains... I am planing to replace motherboard. Question is can i put for example H631 or any other motherboard in my H636?
same parts of model h636
Hello,
i replaced my faulty H636 with motherboard from H634. Everything works fine except rear camera (main camera). Than i replaced rear camera with one with H634, but no changes. Phone detects only front facing camera but picture comes out rotated. Tested both rear cameras in other Stylo and they both work. Any ideas? Thanks
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.

Greetings and welcome to assist. You really need to ask this in the rom thread, it is quite a common issue when using cm based roms for there to be camera issues.

So, please accept that I am not a specialist and that I want help from one specialist that (maybe and I truly hope) help.
My lg G Flex 2 (h955) malfunctioned after I installed snap camera and the actual camera app stopped working properly. It now shows only selfie and the "switch" button to the bsck camera no longer exists, as if there is no camera in the first place. I installed brand new firmware, even opened the back covers amd unplugged the camera module then plugged back in.
I cannot tell if this is the motherboard or the camera module, itself. I want to try to mount a G4 or another model camera module on it, just to see what happenes. But I want you, people, to advice me on what to do. What do you think it is best. There are lots of monry in here and I do not want to spend blindly. Please, no hateful comments. I had some bad times.
Thank you, sincerely. Hope for your best.
Hello,
I have the same problem, any luck solving this one ?
Hello guy,
First of all I'd like to say sorry for creating new thread because I want to ask all questions to the user here.
I try some deep research and see that only Sprints user didn't receive Marshmallow while other like H950, F510 are receiving it.
Anyway the main reason why I'm here is to ask more details about this device and its problem such as, Overheating, High Brightness, Boot loop, Battery. I'm going to buy this phone.
For the Overheating and High Brightness, I've just want to ask if update to Marshmallow will solve this problem or there's a way to fix it?
And how about boot loop? There's a way to fix it permanently or what? Or it only affects to some phone? I saw some thread burn the phone to make the phone come back to life, but I see in YouTube there's a guy who only replace his battery and the phone come back to life. So what the cause of boot loop for G Flex 2?
Also I want to know about the code name of G Flex 2 f510 battery. Before I bought the phone I want to make sure I can find the replacement for it, but I only see the battery for H950, Ls960 etc.... I know that the battery is BL T16, so the F510 also use that kind too or another? For this one I try to google as well but see nothing about it.
I hope all the owner of this phone could help me ??
It's a great phone, I like it very much ! Using with MarshMallow it's European version.
Never met with the problems what is discuss here!
Hi bro,
It's 3GB Ram? You're using H955?
The F510 also uses the BL-T16 battery.
About the bootloops: I've heard that the bootloops and the sudden deaths both come from the same issue: LG's bad soldering on
the motherboard. Both my G Flex 2's died this way not very long after I bought it.
I updated to Marshmallow and still had the overheating issue.
About the brightness: I've never thought it was an issue. I did notice, however, that the lowest brightness was still brighter than the LG G4's lowest brightness.
Overall, I'd say to stay away from this phone and get a Nexus 6P or Galaxy S7.
Haha, but I'm in love with this phone lol. Anyway, does f510 come with 3gb of ram?
There are 2 versions: one with 2GB and another with 3GB. The 2GB version is MUCH more common though; I have only seen 1 3GB. Hope this helps.
Thanks so much bro
Good phone overall, i loved it... Before it bootloped.. Been using it for 1.5years. Now i had to buy galaxy a5 2017,cause my flex is in the servis. If the flex is only viable option in your budget, buy it. Its still kinda a power house phone.
Do you know what the cause of boot loop?
2GB. H955. Never using to long period, never over heating it !
No game playing with it, only phone, navigation, web and mail.
So H959 is better than H950?
the cpu ...snapdragon 810 and & 808 are bad.. but its good...when they fix it
And do you know how to fix it?
it bootloop on me and lagged like hell 4 to 5 months after I got it. Snapchat was painful to use. Camera was decent. upgraded to an Samsung.a
