Question Cam working fuzzy in Meta apps (FB, Instagram, Whatsapp) - Google Pixel 6a

So I came across and bought an used Pixel 6a. I tested the phone with the user I bought it from, but didnt try out the meta apps.
I copied my apps from a Redmi Note 8, and when I tried to take a picture with whatsapp, it came out like this:

So far I've already:
- Deleted the app data, cache, and the app itself
- Tested every other app that uses camera, and came across the same issue in the "meta" apps
- Factory reset the phone and the issue still persists
- Google Camera app works fine.
I still dont know how to fix it and it does not seem to be a common issue.

Google Camera freeze

Hello all,
I recently got a brand new Nexus 5, 16GB.
Since today, when starting the Google Camera, the app freezes for 5-10 seconds, which is pretty annoying.
I already tried:
- other camera apps from the Play Store, they work fine
- deleting app data
- reinstalling the Google Camera app
Do you have an idea how to fix it?
I would first like to try fixing it without a factory reset.
Edit: opening the camera via hangouts photo shortcut works flawless.
Regards
So I actually solved this, just in case someone has the same problem.
It seems like the +1000 Photos in the DCIM/Camera folder caused this to happen.
Moving them to another folder and starting with a clean photos folder worked well.
I still wonder why this happened, I pulled the photos straight from my N4 where I never had these kind of problems.

Samsung galaxy note 8 freezing with contact and message applications

I have had the Note 8 for about 2 weeks now and earlier this week I just started noticing the freezing problem with the contacts and messages application. I have tried clearing data/cache. I have tried going into safe mode and removing third party apps. I have factory reset my phone as well. I have noticed that holding the contact down to select it will work, but simply tapping it freezes the phone. This goes for both the default messages and contacts apps.

The contact app is the same for both messaging and phone. It's a stand alone app. I've seen a few people with this issue, and am curious what causes it. I have had no issues with my so my guess is it has something to do with your setup.
Take a look at the below and see if any work
1.) What version of Contacts is in stalled on your phone?
I'm running v 3.4.04.4 Contacts and v 1.0.01.25 contacts storage. If you are not on either of those go grab the APK from APK MIRROR
2.) Check your account settings
Start with you Google account and see if there is a sync error. If not there then check Samsung cloud. If not there check your sync settings in the contact app. If there is any issue syncing it could be causing the crash.
3.) see if all of your contacts cause it to crash or just a specific one.
It could be an issue with something one app is trying to add to your contacts. I've seen linked in cause contacts to crash, and I've seen Facebook cause contacts to crash. If either of those are syncing with your contacts (check permissions) they could be causing the issue.
4.) Finally back on my S7 edge for some reason the contacts sync got jacked up when moving from my Note 4. The only thing that fixed it was running this app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.ivary.ContactsSyncFix) Haven't had an issue since.
If any of these work let me know so we can help spread the word. Thanks.

Hi. I had similar problem. Try find solutions on web, none. Complaint to samsung facebook, no response. So I decided to;
1. Do System Update... but it says I have the latest installed already.
2. Open PlayStore, found out I set Auto Update to OFF. So I manually update everything (except Games apps)
3 Open Galaxy Store also Auto Update turned OFF. So do manual update everything (except games again)
4 Restart Phone
Dont know which steps solved it, but I dont have issue with Contacts or Message anymore. Its been more than 3 days now... no issue. So I guess you can try the above and see if it helps.
Its started to happen to me but while im in a game not on the phone or messenger.

If it's in game and not the contacts app try adjusting your performance mode in Gamer Tuner.
If it's not that then the game is probably the issue.

Try the app I used in my for suggestions. Pasted below. It fixed any issues I had.
4.) Finally back on my S7 edge for some reason the contacts sync got jacked up when moving from my Note 4. The only thing that fixed it was running this app ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.ivary.ContactsSyncFix ) Haven't had an issue since.

Apps Crashing leading to Reboot

I've ran into this encounter twice now. First with the Weather underground app, the app itself would work well for a while then I would try to launch the app and it would immediately crash. After this occurred I attempted to open other apps, 3rd party (instagram, snapchat) and they would also crash leading the phone into a reboot. It recently occurred with the Swiftkey keyboard app with the same crashing/rebooting problem. Uninstalling then resetting the phone cleared up the crashing/rebooting.
This is a stock OnePlus 6 phone on the latest OS, and the apps were all recently updated.
Was wondering if anyone had a similar problem and had a solution? Or if it was just the apps were incompatible with the OS.

Try wiping data. Take data backup in TWRP to restore if problem persists to get your data back to test for other solution. Data wipe will most likely fix your issue.

Google Play not functioning

Hi,
I recently updated my 7PRO to Oxygen OS 10, and after encountering problems with Android Auto, I downloaded the local update file and switched back to 9.
Ever since. it's been impossible to download files from Google Play. I went to the local OP dealer, and they installed factory firmware (9) but that didn't help.
I then installed 10 back again, hoping that it'll do the trick, but no luck there also.
Other than issues with Google Play I also experience (very) late notifications in some apps (Whatsapp, SMS and email seem to work fine).
I read somewhere that APKPure sometimes causes Play store issues, but I didn't have it installed at the time. However, after reading about it I installed it, and this is now the only way I can download apps (other than on Chrome).
Things I tried:
1. Deleting cache of Play.
2. Factory settings.
3. Deleting cache using recovery mode.
4. Switching back to Oxygen and Android 9.
5. Changing DNS.
Other than that, the phone seems to be as snappy as ever. I'm absolutely clueless... any ideas?
Thanks

Sound not working on multiple apps

I have a Samsung Galaxy S10, running Android ver. 10, One UI ver. 2.5
Recently, two of my apps stopped playing sound altogether. The first app was Instagram, the other is Youtube Vanced. The sound doesn't work on Bluetooth either, phone speakers are both functioning, no other apps (that I know of) have this issue. When it was just Instagram I was certain it was the app itself, but now that the problem reappeared on a different app from a different developer makes me think it's related to the phone.
https://showbox.bio/ https://tutuapp.uno/ [
I have tried reinstalling the apps (or just the updates in case of IG since it can't be fully removed) and both apps are up to date, so is Android itself, multiple phone restarts but nothing. My device is not rooted.
I'm in no way proficent enough to solve it on my own and all the Internet articles just tell me to do what I've already done multiple times. Does anybody have a solution to this? I'm afraid it will soon happen to more of my apps
