So I'm not sure when it started as I don't use my camera much. However, whenever i use any application that uses the rear camera (gcam, snapchat, stock camera) the image is very blurry. Dunno if it's because it can't focus or because of something else. Anyone have any suggestions in what to do?
How does it look when you take a normal photo then? Like is should?
I had that with certain kernels, the focus is locked at x distance. I upgraded the kernel (elemental) and it solved my problem.

I might try updating the kernel or just install stock again. The focus doesn't appear to be locked anywhere.
No dust in camera lense?.

Autofocus isn't 100% accurate. Let's just hope cyanogen adds an option for manual focus soon because this has been bothering me for a while too.
my front camera is taking blurry pictures this is happening from few weeks i considered taking it to service center but maybe you people can help
blurry pictures as in if i take a selfie,the face appears washed out or very cartoonish type if i zoom in it gets distorted and its lacking details its not taking as sharp pictures as it use to take before although rear camera is working fine... please help
I have a similar problem with my front camera. Pictures taken are really ugly, the look like they have a beauty effect on it, or some blur. I thought this is normal...
It is normal. MAYBE rooting can undo the beauty effect, but on stock, beauty effect set to 0 is not really 0

So you say your friends phone does not have this beauty effect??? maybe it is firmware related. I am on 5.0.2. This sounds like a software issue...
I don't use the front camera anymore because the result is terrible.
Are there any others with good pictures made with front camera?

yes his s6 takes better pictures! without the beauty effect unless ofcourse he turns it on and no i dont have any other friends who own a s6 but i just watched many reviews on youtube and it seems this is a problem with our s6 only
and i guess it is firmware related but im on latest firmare of 5.1.1(G920IDVU3DOK9) for my region
maybe it is hardware issue? lens problem?

I'm also experiencing the same problem.
Any help?
Well, my z3 6653 camera won't focus anymore. I tried the drm restoration patch and actually works, restores everything except the tap to focus function.
Any advices or tutorials to fix the issue?
Thanks a lot.
Same here with d6653.
The front camera works fine though.
Haven't found a solution anywhere for it...
And seems like there isnt one.

Did you tried another camera application? Open Camera focus works for me.

Just tried it. Doesnt focus with it.
Hi guys. I was wondering if someone with a rooted device could answer me this. So, since the A8 has no live focus on rear camera, I wonder if it's possible activating it just by adding the same lines of the selfie camera on the camera-feature.xml file on the rear camera section.
Maybe Samsung could have disabled this. Since like the S8 has just one camera and got the live focus. I don't know, maybe the software really don't support it and I could be wrong.

Oh that's sad. Btw, thanks for the answer. Guess I'll have to wait till someone make an workable GCam for the Android pie.
hi everybody!
i dont recall the front camera to not zoom (pinch to zoom) before the latest March update. A colleague of mine told me, on his Nokia 5 he cant zoom in anymore with the front camera and neither can i on my N7+. Has anyone else noticed this? Is it something configurable in the settings? Thanks!
aint there anyone who can quicly try zooming with the front camera? If he has the latest update?

Maybe they blocked zoom because the camera is 4MP that create an output of 16MP through interpolation, so the zoom could mess up the process
