Idk if anyone else got that problem but since 9.5.8 update whatsapp is turning every selfie picture into landscape mode wich is really... dumb.. i dont have screen turning or anything on... anyone an idea?
Yep same thing here
Can report the same issue after testing just now. Couldn't a workaround be taking a pic from the stock camera, and then uploading it to WhatsApp?

For some reason, the Camera function on my G2X no longer works. It worked a few times previously, but now every time I launch the screen flickers and nothing launches.
Persists across reboot. Cleared data on the camera app, want to avoid wiping the phone if possible.
Anyone run into this, before, or know a fix?

Haven't run into this problem myself but you could try downloading an alternate camera app from the market to see if that works. If it does, you may have to factory reset your phone. If it doesn't, it may be the hardware(the camera itself).

I noticed this problem as well, after rooting the phone. I'm not sure if it was an issue before that or not. But what I found is that if you rotate the phone into landscape mode and then open the camera app it works fine. Only trying to open it in portrait caused me any issues. Hope this helps.

This is ridiculous.
Yet true.
I'll be resetting my phone tonight to fix the battery drain, hopefully this will be resolved at the same time. But this definitely worked, so I can test out this camera some more while I wait. Thanks!
I had this issue too. Try opening while in landscape. Once open switch to portrait then close while in portrait. You should be able to open on portrait after.
Edit: This only works some of the time
Has anyone figured out the camera issue? I had my camera working fine, I rooted the phone and now the camera just flickers around the button. Must have this camera working.
Thanks

Had same issue, as you noted the reset solved my problem, camera is working AOK. I would have hated to loose the camera function, it is a good camera.
2nd phone that my damn camera stopped working after about 15 minutes. I didn't root this phone to make sure that wasn't the issue. The camera worked after I did a factory wipe, got it all set up and was taking pictures while I was setting it up to make sure it wasn't a rogue app. Thought I was in the clear and tried to take a picture and nothing. Same problem everyone else is having. just wiped the phone again for the 3rd time and camera works, going thru same process, can anyone give me any advice on this camera. Very strange and getting real pissed off.

I use anylock to bypass my lock screen so when I get a text message (ssm popup) It will open up my screen automatic and display text message. This way I'm not always pushing my power button to gain entry to phone. Problem is the lock screen app is some how screwing up the camera app. Also tried no lock and same problem.
Just wanted to let anyone using lock screens what I encountered, maybe save you hours of resetting phone.

Mine was doing the same thing and I was about to blame it on Pauls patch. It turned out to be widget locker. I froze it in Titanium and then it came on with no problem. I was really close to wiping AGAIN. Really glad I saw this. Thank You
Latest G+ update "FULLY" enables video hangout on mobile devices. Which means, now you can initiate a video conference over G+ using your phone
Now I remember sometime back on some ROM, I'd managed to see the video streaming up from my phone. But now I'm on vanilla DDKP2. It reboots as soon as the streaming starts. I mean.. FFC preview starts alright, but when we say "Join Hangout", it'll reboot.
Anybody here getting a different result? I'm sure there's a lot of people on lot many different ROMs. I really want to know which ROM could possible support this feature. This might be the first break-through for our phone !
Got it.. Start hangout with Rearview Cam preview, and later switch to FFC. Works We DO HAVE a break through

Sorry but it doesn't true. hangouts works if you put the phone in landscape to the left, and work both cameras, but appears a problem sending your image rotation, rotation issue again.... And if you put the device in portrait mode (vertical), phone reboots. At the moment, hangouts doesn't work.
100 % tested
Can any one report this issue to google+ team ?

Hi guys,sorry if this has been asked before but is there anyway to flip for the front camera for apps like Snapchat so you can use filters and videos without them being upside down. Thanks:good:

Cheers for the suggestion but as per the above it doesn't work for Snapchat. Doesn't seem that there is any solution at present. Pity because everything else about the phone is super.

Yeah sure Snapchat could add the functionality but would be great to get a workaround.
I have a little trick, but I dont know if it works with Snapchat, but it works with Instagram, and Facebook, which I use both.
1. Unlock the screen rotation.
2. Open Facebook.
3. Turn your phone 90° so Facebook will be in landscape mode.
4. Turn your phone again 90° so Facebook App will be upside down.
------ 90° each, because sometimes turning it 180° doesn't work
5. Lock the screen rotation.
6. Open Instagram. It is now upside down, and selfie camera for stories now work normally.
HTH. I also hope this works with other apps.

With this method snapchat rotates the whole camera feed so in the end it comes up upside down. I think it's snapchat's fault, we would need a modded version or a proper update for our phones.
Hi Guys, I am using stock camera and I am recently upgraded to Android 9.0 The problem I am facing is whenever camera detect faces, it automatically goes into Portrait mode. This is annoying especially in night time when shooting under artificial lighting condition. While taking group photos, its unnecessarily blurs the background and edge detection is also not good.
I would like camera to take normal photos not Portrait. I have checked all settings but there is no way I can disable it. Really hoping I get my working GCAM as it was working on Android 8.2, till then have to use stock camera

Ive seen that before usually on custom roms with gcam mod though. Try wiping cache maybe that will sort it
