My sister just got a Lumia 1020 to replace her broken 900. She started the Pro Cam and the shutter opened fine, but the screen stays black. Same thing for the regular Camera app, Smart Cam or anything that tries to use the camera. It seems the camera is actually turning on (the shutter pops open) but the phone isn't recieving input from it. What could be the problem?
Pictures: Dropbox
Picture of the phone laying down is what it looks like in the Pro Cam (not black just because it's on the floor) and the other is the normal Camera app. Note the controls for the regular Camera app. It's not just because Pro Cam is not opening.
Any help would be greatly appreciated; she's really upset about this.
RTM.

Have you tried a soft or hard reset??
Yes, did that a couple times. Got them to replace the phone with a new one though. Could not for the life of me find anything out about this problem and neither did AT&T. Thread can be closed.
Hello guys,
I don't know if it happens to you, but I've got some ugly bug on my front camera. Wherether I'm trying to shoot photos, I've some good exposure in preview, but after I shoot a picture, the exposure goes under or over exposure, but never the one I get on a preview screen (before hitting the button). Is this a known bug and is there any way to fix it.
I didn't see anyone complain about it, so I think it's not common. By the way, I tried to use different roms and diferent camera apps, it all the same.
The only thing I found on the internet is this site:

Yea, it's a common bug, that haven't been fixed.
To me it only happens in very good daylight and the photos end up overexposed, HDR doesn't help.

So I have this bug too, any pictures taken with the front facing camera outside during the day are almost entirely white, you can just about make out what the picture is of. But the preview and movies taken with the front facing camera are fine suggesting it's software. I have no screen protector, no case, unrooted, KitKat out of the box. Tried different camera apps with no difference.
I know this was posted a while ago but any updates on this? Can lollipop change anything? I have a moto g LTE in the US so no L for me yet. Can I adjust settings in the camera app (I downloaded the apk for the moto camera that has settings access)?
This issue, along with the multitasking problems that mean I can't even listen to music while surfing, have tempted me to give up on this phone entirely.

Dunno if it's fixed in Lollipop, but I can test. I just don't use the front camera much.
I got no such problem with multitasking at all, even on Lollipop, let alone KitKat that was way better in the memory management.

Thanks for offering to test it - I'd really love to know if L makes a difference. I don't often use my front facing camera either, but just knowing I don't have the option to use it is seriously off putting. Last week I ran into a friend of mine I hadn't seen in years, and after trying to take a picture together you couldn't see either of our faces. It was so disappointing.
As for the multitasking, it seems like some phones have an issue while others don't - all I know is that when I have Google Play open, launching Chrome causes Play to close after 30 seconds, no crash error or anything. Same with the home screen having to redraw after exiting almost every app I use, and Chrome tabs reloading every time I switch between them. I've gone as far as uninstalled the memory hogging facebook and other apps, but the problem persists. Painful is the only word for this phone at the moment.

Tested and I couldn't reproduce the bug on 5.0.2. It takes pretty normal pictures now.
Can you tell me if on KK you can enable HDR? On lollipop this is not accessible at all.

I have hope for the lollipop update then! Yes on Kk you have three options for HDR, on, off and auto.
I do not know from when this started , but i noticed a black dot at the bottom right corner of the rear camera of my nexus 5 :/ . I downloaded another camera app to check if there was any fault with the default camera app, but there seems to be a problem with the lens .
I attached the pics and i've shot the pics of a wall so that the dot is clearly visible.
Can anyone help me out ?
My N5 runs on a stock lollipop. No rooting done.
Hi guys, I m planning to get this device but I have a few questions about front facing camera.
When in main camera app turning phone upside down to shoot selfie is way to go, whole software turns around.
But what happens in apps like instagram or whatsapp when you are in video call? What do you guys do then?
Thanks!
There's no workaround for that. Luckily, I had Redmi Note 7 to help out on the way.
I can confirm in Instagram if you take a picture directly in the app with the phone upside down, the end picture will be upside down. So it doesn't work sadly
Hi, just updated my google phones and now noticed when looking at photos it applies a strange yellow dull tint when the picture is loaded. swipe to the next picture and you will notice after a split second the picture dulls, most noticeable on white background pictures. if you drag up to get the picture information it reverts to how the picture should look, nice and vibrant. Is anyone else experiencing this? rather annoying.
Thanks
Same here no solution yet
Noticed it too....super annoying
Just got delivery of my OP7 Pro this morning and I'm experiencing the same. Any suggested solutions?
Same here, looks like a Photos app issue
I'm having the same problem on my OnePlus 7 pro. I noticed it after the latest update of Google photos
Update to my response: I noted that if you have night mode on, and you open a photo, Photos will change the color mode to normal again and your screen will look white. I have to turn off and then on the night mode to get the tint again. Looks like Photos is playing with the display color briefly.
Yeah, I'm having the same issue with my OnePlus 7...

Glad I'm on the only one! Very annoying
My Oppo Reno 10x is giving me similar issues. When swiping from one photo to the next in Google Photos the colour cast changes after a split second and if you press the screen and do the slightest swipe in either direction without actually swiping to the next/previous photo, the colour cast changes as well. Doesn't do it in the native Oppo gallery so I assume it's a Photos issue.
Ones you download the picture to your phone is fine, so again it is Google photos problem.
Facing the same issue. ?
So I'm not the only one that noticed.
Facing the same "issue"
Have noticed it some as well...
Now here is a HUGE BUG with this. Open a google photo and leave it open with the weird tint. Lock ur phone. Now try to unlock using fingerprint. Guess what u cant... Seems the tint affect the fingerprint ready. U have to use ur pin.
You are right, can't unlock the phone when showing a photo with google photo. What a weird bug

Yes, seeing the same issue on the Oppo Reno 10x - i believe since Oppo is manufacturing the One Plus phones, they have the same issue...So if Google Photos is not the problem, i'm most probably sure, it will take a very long time until Oppo/OnePlus acknowledge and fix this problem...
Same... Been dealing with it for awhile now. Hopefully a fix comes soon.

Same over here on Oppo Reno 10x

But in the meantime I solved it by installing an older Google photos version from apkmirror. (Don't forget to disable auto updating in the Play Store!)
I don't think I will miss out on something although the app bothers me with saying so ?.
Version is 4.10.0.2346283390 and it works just perfect without any strange color adjustments a second after opening a picture. Finally I can watch my pictures like they should be.
