The camera on my Galaxy S6 started having issues with flickering translucent vertical stripes appearing. The stripes are present even after taking a picture (see photo below). Same issues in 3rd party apps like Snapchat, and in recorded video.
The issues started after a small update received this morning.
I have tried resetting the camera app settings, emptied the cache and restarted, to no avail.
Version: G920FXXU5EQCD
Android: 7.0

After update system to never version is like that?
Sorry this isn't a direct issue with the camera or the update, necessarily. It appears to be an issue with the lighting in my office room.
Even though I have had no trouble in the past, I have previously taken pictures in there, but I only now noticed it, and I can't say how long it's been there, but it definitively haven't always been like this.
The issue is with the florescent lamps, and I can only see the stripes in my particular room, not in the hallway with seemingly the same type of lamps.

Hey all,
I flashed CM 10 last night and when I went to use my camera, my screen looked like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

As you see.. the camera preview is messed up. Displaying the image the camera sees four times... and not even fully rendered.
I wasn't able to get an actual screenshot of this off my phone as it saves it as a normal picture so I had to use a real camera. The camera functions and takes proper pictures... but the screen so messed up it makes it difficult to take a pic. Also, if I change settings the gallery crashes.
Has anyone come across this before? If so... how do I resolve this heh.
TIA!
Any thoughts? This is driving me insane lol.
My suggestion would be clearing data on the gallery(camera is part of the gallery) to see if that helps. Also try ticking the box under developer settings that references HW overlays.

Clear your data in the gallery see of that works, n fyi don't freak out if your pictures don't pop up in the gallery after you clear gallery data, your pictures aren't gone they will pop back up after some time

i don't have the proper term for this but let's call it screen discoloration
screen sometimes turn into purple hue randomly but when i turn off the screen it goes back to normal immediately
my device have stock ICS and rooted
please see attachments for picture.
the purplish tint disappears when i lock the screen
the blue pics shows the normal screen
screenshots appear normal so i took actual pictures instead
do you encounter the same on your device?

It happens to my P6800 from time to time though very rare.
I have not yet found out why and when happens it.
My guess is that it happens while surfing in stock browser
My device w/ PA 2.55 JB v4.1.2 custom rom modded by Daniel.
I have to admit that the both Androguide and Daniel made awsome job and let us have such a gift.
Anyone else?
i'm also have this problem and since that my acren look not have a good color depth o dont know if this just my imagination anyway mine happen when i played 10 pin bowling any auggestion on how to fix the issue?
Today I face this issue when working with stock file manager
Any solution/reason yet?
No solution yet, would you mind edit your post and supply what rom ure using?
I can trigger the inverted colors more often when uv the gpu, maybe a voltage glitch??
Normaly I experience it once every 2 months or so, but others might get it often..
hey guys that issue i posted above has no fix yet since it only appears rarely
i thinks it's a hardware glitch..after reflashing the latest ics fw i haven't had it again
At first I thought glitches I saw caused by the app (inbox) itself. Then I keep seeing it happens on other apps as well.
It is like some elements (ie, action bar) of apps flashing or the whole screen flickers. It usually happens only a second or two at most; too quick to make a screenshot of it.
Though, this problem is not happen regularly, it is frequent enough to get noticed.
Here are some apps that I remembered glitches happened, it happens in other apps too but usually very quick and random.
In FX File Explorer, sometimes glitches occur during transition animation between folders.
When adding a new Google account in Settings, the big top blue part of the screen flickers.
In Inbox app, sometimes tips bar just keep flashing for almost 2 seconds when I closed it.
And, in A Better Camera app, this can happen sometime:

I'm considering reverting back to 23.4.A.0.546.
Even though the old firmware has stagefright bugs, it's very unlikely that someone would use it on me, and I don't use MMS anyway.
for me both cameras are better in .232
and yeah I have these screen problem
and did you notice that the speakers are noticeably lower in music ?? now they are like Z3+ !!!!
I had some screen tearing when I first installed .232, but none since then.
Speakers seem just as loud as before.
I do have the same problem.
Made myself a prerooted fw using PRF, downgraded, rooted and upgraded using the prerooted firmware i made.
Also made a factory reset. Now i'm getting screen tearing while scrolling, video glitches and stutterings.
I saw that at first but not anymore (maybe I haven't noticed them).
Strange thing is that 232 version should be Stagefright free, however, I've runned a test and I'm still vulnerable to one of the flaws.
So when I was taking some photos indoors a sort of wave pattern started occurring on the display of my U11. All photos taken while this weird distortion was being displayed became blurred almost to the point of not being recognizable. The only way to get this to go away was to restart the phone...anyone know what the heck that was? Some sort of issue with the OIS?

Could you post a photo?
Which ROM/version?
Stock phone and I will check to see if I can find one of the photos in the cloud. I deleted those from the phone itself after the restart.
Found the photo, I was snaping a photo to send to a friend cause he was wondering what is an "Andy Gator" when I told him what beer I was drinking. I also noticed a similar problem the other night when I was trying to snap a photo in low light conditions. Everything started to almost vibrate on the screen blurring everything out.

It looks like blur caused by camera shake due to long exposure. Is this problem present with good light conditions?
BUMP.
Same problem here, phone started a few days ago with displaying the same "wavy" pattern. First it was like 1 in 10 times when I open the camera app, now it's more like 9 out of 10 and almost impossible to use. No matter the conditions: dark, light, shiny, close-up, portret, landscape, ...
I just made a quick gif to illustrate:
And some photo's I just took where I had to restart the camera app or switch the aspect ratio (standard 16:9, switching to 4:3 or 1:1 and back, all aspect ratio's had the annoying thing) numerous times to get atleast a decent picture, so you can see the conditions:
This first shot took me nearly 5 minutes before the camera started without that pattern
This one took about 3 restarts and two aspect ratio switches:
Probably the OIS module is malfunctioning.
My two month old POCO X3 NFC 128GB appears to be randomly exhibiting a graphics fault. Occasionally upon screen wake up, this sort of graphics corruption occurs (see first image below)
The first two times this happened, the corruption was blue, the one in the image is red, it looks like a low resolution, low colour mode, and the only way to get the screen to go back to normal is to reboot. I have not managed to intentionally cause the error to appear.
Screenshotting while the error is occurring shows a normal screen without the issue.
Has anyone seen anything like this or have any idea what is causing it? This is my first Xiaomi phone after reluctantly switching to them from three previous Huawei mobiles. Very disappointing and annoying to have an intermittent error two months into owning this phone.

I have indian variant, have exactly this issue.
After updating to 12.0.9 once a while display acts like this.
You don't need to reboot simply go in settings/ display/colorscheme and click standard Display will be back to normal, it's a software glitch which came with new update

Thank you for your message, this very interesting to hear as I have not seen anyone else talking about this and I was beginning to wonder if it was a hardware issue as the fault looks very much like graphics chip corruption. The next time this happens I will try your fix without rebooting to see if it helps, thanks again.
