Camera - General Questions and Answers

Note 20 utra 5g When I open the Camera app, the phone immediately restarts I tried the camera test and it worked without a problem (Samsung members test) And I tried other photography apps and the camera worked fine, the problem only appears when I open the official Samsung camera app

Is it the official Samsung camera app which doesn't work? If yes, how about doing a factory reset?

Yes it is the Samsung camera app
I do factory reset and hard reset and the camera still not working

Do a LOGCAT to get the reason why Camera app isn't working.

That looks like hardware problem and I don't think you can do anything about it to be honest.
Did you try with some camera application from Play Store?

Working version of Google Dialer?

Had anybody found a working version of Google Dialer that works with the U11? Most notably spam calls, and local caller ID?
I am 100% sure that the Google Dialer is in the play store...

I'm not really sure why they wouldn't work if you install it as an APK. I flashed a Lineage-based rom on my M8 (still waiting for the U11 ugh) and the dialer works fine there.

The problem which i have is, the dialer app works, but when i start a call or a call is comming inn, the HTC dialer is still comming up instead of the Google one. Is there a way to get rid of it completely? Maybe to install the seccond app which is required, i think Google Phone and Messanger Storage or Goole Phone Services?

It's already configured as the default Phone App, but anyway, when i do an call and the connection was etablished, the old HTC Dialer is popping up over the Google one. I have two options then to switch to the Google one, press on the back button or expand the notification area and switch manually. This happen even if i disable the HTC Dialer App with Titanium Backup.

Updated versions of the Google dialer can be found here to work on non-pixel devices.

The 10.0.155920708 version kept closing and did not work properly, but version 10.0.153781772 works fine.

Go to settings-->More settings-->Applications-->All-->Whatsapp-->Permissions and see if camera permission is checked. If not, just do it !
Cheers~
I have global version and front camera not working.
I also have the global version with the latest update and all possibles permissions, but the front camera does not open on Whatsapp. If someone has a solution it's nice
Global version, latest whatsapp and firmware. Front camera is coming up nice and smooth. I gave all permissions when asked for.
Maybe re-install whatsapp?
Go to settings / more settings /applications /turn on the front camera. And it's working tada ?
I just discovered that
Thanks you!
Thank you so much. Also managed to set chrome as default from here. The 2 biggest gripes of my Vivo Nex are now addressed.
Thanks and God bless.
It's still not working for me
Front camera popup not working for me till this date for whatsapp & facebook both. While it's working fine for instagram & duo.

Going to get the P40 pro but GMS still possible? and some other detail of the phones.

Hi, i think i am going to get the P40 pro once it is out
however, i have been using google services app for so long, the google drive, google map and google photo, google pay(and i am paying monthly too).
My most concern is i still want my photos to be automatically backup to the google photo, means that i need to get the GMS working.
Can i do so with the new P40 pro? I mean not rooting the device can i still get GMS working?
secondly, Google pay, is it already a fact that even if i can get GMS working, i still cannot use Google pay in Huawei phones?
Any body knows the touch sample rate of the phone? I see Xiaomi 10 pro has 180hz, Oppo Find x2 pro has 240hz, but P40 pro didn't mention this during the announcement.
Secondly, same thing happened to my old Huawei Mate 20 pro and Sony Xperia 1. when i move my fingers during the game (ex. pubg), my fingers have to travel long enough for it to detect movement. So during sniper time it is a nightmare. (my iphone 10 and Samsung S9+ are doing perfect in this area)
Yes Google pay will never work as the phone is not certified by Google. I have the P40 Pro in my hands.

Loaned to me from Huawei for review.
It works , literally just saw Ben gadgets review with it working no issues
i saw Ben's review too, but he said he has to hack the phone.
i don't know what that means by hacking the phone... seems kinda risky

Android auto works fine if you install GMS correctly. The only thing that isn't working for me is Google pay and my banking app.

Question Google cam force closing and rebooting

Ever since I received pixel 6A, I have been experiencing this issue which I believe is well known to prior releases in this series.
The moment I open Google cam downloaded from play store and not installed from gcam port repos, it force closes and immediately reboots my device.
Are there any workarounds other than using another app for this?
Google camera is a system app built in, why would you need to download it from the store?
Try to factory flash or just replace from Google

I didn't separately download it from the Google Play store, but it did update itself.
Also the reason I specifically mentioned it being sourced from play store is to let experts know that I am not using any gcam ports or custom modified version of Google camera app.

Interesting....cant say Ive ever seen that happen.
@nikha I too faced the same issue when I got my P6a. It was on Android 12 and I updated all the apps including camera from Playstore. Suddenly it would freeze for a second and the phone would reboot whenever I opened the camera app.
Fix - I cleared the data of the camera app and updated to Android 13 and did factory reset. The issue has not occurred again. So far, no issues.

If that's the case, I would return it. That sounds hardware related if it's happening with vanilla no apps installed that might interfere android.
