[Q] the camera now shows a 'photos remaining" number in the upper left hand corner
I just noticed it today while i was taking some pictures. I rooted my phone and just have the stock rom on it so far and i installed the black status bar and am/pm removal mod, and changed some icons around. I cant imagine any of those would have caused the camera to show how many photos i can take.
any ideas? I cant find a setting anywhere in the camera app. Stock camera app, too.

This seems like a very dumb question, but I can't figure out how to hide the progress bar while playing any local video using the included (stock) Samsung video player app.
I'm rooted, but stock (except for the hotspot mod)
Navigate to gallery, and tap on any video that is stored locally on my sd card (or on internal storage). If I don't touch the screen, everything is fine - video plays beautifully. If I tap on the screen to pause the video, or to drag the slider back/forward (to rewind/fast forward), the progress bar (I think that is what it is called) comes up, and works perfectly. When I un-pause it (or am done rewinding/forwarding), the progress bar doesn't auto-hide (even after a minute or two).
If I change screen orientation (landscape to portrait, or vice versa), the progress bar goes away - but it is kinda stupid to have to do that just to make the progress bar go away.
I checked the settings, and don't see an option to make it auto-hide after 'x' seconds. I can't drag that progress bar down or do anything with it. I find it hard to believe that this is normal behavior (and that nobody else has complained about it), so I hope I'm overlooking something simple.
Bump - anyone?
I have exactly the same problem! I looked on youtube and notice all you have to do is tap the screen and the progress should hide, but it doesn't do it on my phone!
Have you noticed the same thing with the photo gallery also? I mean, the top bar where you can do edits and the bottom where you can scroll to see other pictures...I just can't seem to get rid or hide them!
Any thoughts anyone?

Now that you mention it, yes, I have the same thing on the photo gallery. I hope this is not "normal" behavior...
Interesting, I'm trying all sorts of things, like restarting, uninstalling some apps and such...I don't seem to be able to find the solution!
any other ideas? Its frustrating how I have to rotate and then rotate it back again in video mode to get rid of the progress bar...it just looks silly.
Everyone else Galaxies: they just tap the screen and everything just hides...even in the photo gallery. If you find out anything, please let me know...and I shall do the same

Are you on MF9? (that is the latest update, and that fixed the issue for me)
Edit: You can always install the photosphere camera apk (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340858), and that installs the google gallery app (and video player) along with it. That can play videos and display albums without the annoying progress bar blocking the view.

So my issue is that the lock screen constantly shows camera as if it is a background. It also won't let me add any lock screen widgets.
I did a hard reset, happened again. Took it in, they did a hard reset.happened again. They traded my phone and again happening.
The only thing I did was add my gmail accounts.no apps downloaded and no other settings messed with.
Anyone have this issue? Picture attached to see what it's doing.
Scroll to the right instead of the left. Camera is on a page on the lockscreen. Scrolling to the left will show you ability to add other widgets to the lockscreen

So, I've got a relatively new stock, NC4, rooted device. No Safestrap installed. Rooted using towelroot. Only root apps installed are Wanam xposed and Titanium.
When I take a photo with the stock camera app, if the "processing" progress bar does NOT show after taking the shot, the photo seems to have taken properly and all is as it should be.
However, any time I take a photo and the "processing" progress bar appears immediately afterward, the actual photo that saves seems to be whatever is in the viewfinder at the time the progress bar completes! Eg, I take a photo of object A, the "processing" progress bar appears, I move the camera to a different view with object B in it, then once the progress bar completes, I look in the gallery and the last photo is of object B!
Anybody seen this before or know what's going on here?
Thanks.
I had this lag issue as well. After some searching, users suggested disabling "Smart Stabilization" from camera settings. It was a night and day difference afterward, and the pictures look fine to me.

That seems to have done it. Thanks!
Hi- this screen never appeared before and now it does -.- tried wiping factory resetting and this image wont go away from my homescreen. Idk what happened please help looked everywhere of how to remove this but no one has had this issue. This never appeared on stock until after i unlocked my bootloader and installed cm. Tried to use the repair assistant and its still there.
edit: idk why it does not show in my screenshots. here are some photos taken from my iphone... hard to show but there is a white line that is in the background of my homescreen. Shows an sms icon slightly transparent. Annoying **** to look at when I take pics on snapchat. As you can in google playstore and the snapchat photo a SMS icon appears behind the mic in play store and under the switch to facecam icon in snapchat. Does anyone know a fix??
I still have no idea what you are talking about.

lol. ok before on my screen it will be normal fine no graphical errors no visual glitches. pictures wont show it for some reason but if you had my phone in my hand it would show up as SMS icon at the top of my screen like right below the navi bar. Shows up in camera and on my snapchat. Never happened till now. Idk if my screen got messed up or if its the constant switching of roms etc that gave me that glitch. its like a white line that separates the navibar and the rest of the screen at the bottom shows a menu bar on the left corner and some icons. its very transparent under the homescreen display like if the stock rom overlapped
like it shows a small phone screen is under the home screen. in the background- get me?
It's screen burn in. It happens with amoled screens if they are left on a static image too long. You can try some burn in fix tools in the play store. That's why you don't see it in your screen shots it's a hardware problem.

thank you! do you recommend any that would work?
Hello! I am running Android 7.1.2 and Camera 4.3.016. About three weeks ago, I went to take a panorama image. The feature didn't work. Didn't think too much about it at the time, figured a reboot would solve it. Today, I tried again. Same thing. And photo sphere doesn't work either. If I go to either of those modes, say panorama, I get the rectangle with white does, empty circle in the middle. If I press the shutter button, the blue dot shows, but when it is centered in the circle, the circle kind of shows a half of a white inner circle rapidly flashing around the blue dot. Same for photo sphere. And nothing happens. Either phone orientation, horizontal or vertical.
I believe since this issue began, there have been OS version updates as well as camera version updates. I am a part of the beta program, so not sure if something got messed up, but figured the version updates would help. I also tried uninstalling camera app updates, and even reinstalled the camera (updated?) from Google Play. And, bootloader is unlocked but I am not rooted.
Any suggestions as to what might be the culprit here?
Thanks!
Chris
