[Q] Problem on camera function - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenever I enter camera mode, there will be one black line across the screen. Sometimes it just disappear, but whenever I double click on the screen to focus on the image, the black line will appear. Anyone actually experienced the same problem? Does anyone know how to solve this issue or do I have to go for a exchange for the phone.
Anyway, I tried to restart, shut down and factor data reset my phone but it did not resolved the camera problem.

Sounds like you got a bad phone. Bummer. Mine does not do that.

Camera Problem

I have a problem with my IMate JASJAM. The camera app sometime behave weird and shows scrambled. After several reboots, it goes to normal. This has happened several times. I have tried hard reseting but so far no luck. The issues remains.
I am using the latest ROM version for IMATE JASJAM.
Any suggestions?
I have the T-Mobile varioII for only a few days.
The camera screen is displaying a line in the same position of the line just above the battery icon in the today screen. This seems to affect the use of the ok icon and button, in that it won't consistently save the settings. The line does disappear, but as soon as I use any buttons, it comes back.
Soft reset sometimes removes it until it reappears.
Do you have anything similar to this, or anyone comment please?
sorry, can't help there but here's my own camera problem:
After having to send back 3 tytns with screen alignment issues my 4th handset's screen works perfectly however on all 4 units the camera is crashing frequently, or sometimes just taking a blank, grey picture. I obviously want my camera set to best quality: 2m, superfine. When i take a pic where the light is good (mainly outside on a nice day) the tytn just switches to the today screen. If i try to access the camera app I get a "camera in use" error message, if i go to the running apps screen the camera app is not there to close, only solution is a soft reset, take a pic and it happens again.
The only workaround I have found is to set the camera to L, fine quality but i'm not happy with this - why have a 2mp camera that only works when it is dumbed down?
Surely i'm not the only one with this problem as all 4 sets had the same issue.
I'm loathe to send this one back in case the 5th set has the screen issue.
I faced the issue that my camera screen show scramble. And when I take the picture, the phone returns to the today screen, and when I tried to start the camera again, it gives me an error that the camera is already in use.
My problem of the camera having a line on the screen may not be the screen.
The line is appearing in the captured image. I didn't realise this until I rotated the image. So, it may be the camera/lens at fault.
I had the identical camera fault as described in the original post. Soft resets cleared the screen but the fault re-appeared after activating the camera. I had to pester the network into replacing my 1 mth old voda version. I have to admint the fault only started after I dropped the handset though.
lol well might as well add mine, my zoom doesnt work! Just will not shift from 1x
Schooleydoo, you know there is no zoom at 2 mp. It only works at lower resolutions and in increasing amounts the lower you set it..
Any solutions??
Hi,
Has any of you found the solution to the original problem? My phone's camera shows scrambled screen continuously and doesn't get back to normal.
Any ideas??

I have a scrambled screen too. It started when i was too low with memory, after 3rd warning phone turned off itself 3 times - it never happened before, some of the programms crashed for good, and camera shows camera menu but picture that camera sees is scrambled, so are the pictures taken. When I tried to take a video it showed that I am missing some codecs. After Flashing I can record videos and make pictures, but I get only this results...
:/ .... anybody have an idea?
I don't know what exactly happened... I flashed phone with the same WM6 and installed Webcamera plus v1.051, and TCPMP v 0.72 RC and camera still wasn't working, then suddenly it started to work a day after .. i don't know if it will help anybody, but.... i think that some codecs from those programs in some way overwrited phone codecs...but I am a new, so I may be wrong

[Q] Camera Issue

A good amount of the time when I go to access the camera it loads the camera app and for a split second it shows a black screen and jumps right back to the home page. Sometimes resetting the phone will fix this but often a reset doesn't help. Is anyone else having this problem? Any fixes?
Thanks
sounds like a bad camera . I would take the unit in for warranty.

[Q] Camera randomly not working

Hello,
Anyone having an issue with their camera suddenly not working? Specifically, the camera will suddenly stop responding to the shutter button. I see the button "glowing" when I press it, but the camera will not snap the picture. It does this no matter what setting I choose. Even if I force close the app, it will continue doing the same thing. The solution is to reboot the entire phone to get it working again.
I have another Nexus 4 which I bought for my gf and she had the same exact issue. This was happening all last night (Thanksgiving dinner) trying to take family photos. To make matters worse, the issue first appeared when I handed my phone to my friend who has an iPhone. He immediately laughed on how it could not even do a simple task. lol
I am wondering if it was due to a low light condition and somehow caused a bug as I have been unable to reproduce the issue since this morning on both phones. Even when the flash was manually set to on, you can tap the screen which turns on the flash momentarily; however, when this issue was occuring, the flash LED would remain lit until I manually closed the app.

GT-I9500 Bug - Lock-screen appears for a split second

Hello everyone,
I've been having this problem ever since I bought my phone 6 weeks ago.
I'm currently running XXUBMEA rooted stock ROM. And I've had this bug even before updating.
I searched the forums here but couldn't find anyone complaining about it, although I know a friend or mine who has the phone and is also facing it.
Sometimes the Lock-screen appears for a split second, during that, the brightness also goes to max. If it happens while I'm typing somewhere, the keyboard disappears, and I have to tap on the text box to make it appear again.
Also, sometimes it happens when I'm playing a game in landscape mode, the screen rotates to portrait just less than a second, and returns to normal.
It's very annoying, it happens to me daily, I'd say about 5-7 times.
Anyone else facing this?

[Q] VS980 Stock OTA - Lock Screen Glitch?

I've actually had no luck finding anyone reporting this issue, but it's one that is really starting to bug me...
Sometimes, when I turn the phone on, rather than the traditional lock screen, the camera screen that you can ordinarily get to from the lock screen shows up...but it's not the full camera screen; it fills up like 3/4 of the screen, and the buttons have no functionality. Almost as if I had swiped over to the camera, but it froze about halfway through opening it.
I have tried to discern a pattern here, but there doesn't appear to be one...whether I turn on the screen with the power button or knock-on, it still happens randomly. I thought for a while that it only happened when I locked the phone with an app running on the screen, but that proved to be incorrect as well.
Like I said, having no luck finding anyone else reporting this. Has happened since I got the phone, even after updating. I've got a feeling its just a glitch I'm not going to do anything about, but if anyone has had any luck making this stop, I would greatly appreciate some advice!
