Even the one without flash is terrible

Looks like a problem with the sync between the camera and the flash. Does this also happen on another camera app?

So it's just Stock that has an issue.

Seems that way I'm on EE XUBMI7 FW no updates as yet should I exchange or wait it out

Try clearing cache and data on the camera app, first. Then if that doesn't work clear the system cache in recovery.
It's a firmware issue so I doubt returning it would make any difference.

[Q] Does opening the Camera App result in a black screen and/or freeze your phone?

Does opening the Camera App result in a black screen and/or freeze your phone?
Wondering if this is just an issue with my phone or some kind of bug with this phone?
This happens to me 1-2 times a week.
My camera has been acting weird since updating

That is strange. Maybe you should root it and put a rom on it I have never had that issue

I am on MJE and do not have any issues with my stock camera. I am also completely stock. Maybe trying a reboot will help
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I am still on stock MJE and the camera is working fine. No other issues to report

I cleared the camera apps cache and it has not happened since.

Poor photos!

So I've got this lg g2 and not really happy with the photos every front photo looks misty!!!

If you want better camera pics try xdabbebs or jishnus camera which both improve stock camera a lot

Mine is having the same issues. See my thread. I am starting to think my camera is not defective but rather the camera is garbage compared to the s4.

I tried xdabbebs when my phone was rooted and for some reason after installing that it's sent me in to boot loop lol

Wow those are really ****ty pics. My G2 takes excellent photos.
Maybe your unit is a dud or any scratches on the glass cover?
Here is a blind camera test, G2 (Uses Sony's Exmor sensor) scored better than GS4

I've emailed Lg they ask for some sample photos bet they say they look ok lol
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
lol... btw just out of curiosity, which camera app do you use? stock or aftermarket?
i'm asking you this because i get better images when i use either xdabbeb modded camera app (you can find it here under developer's area subforums) or DSLR Camera Pro (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera) which gives me even more settings to fiddle with...
you can also try some other camera apps like
Camera FV-5
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.lite
or MX camera...
Stock I don't have it uprooted fv-j5 just bought it

OmegaRom Find My Mobile not working?

So the other day I was going through my settings since I'm fairly new to the S5 and noticed there was a feature that was just like the windows phone find my phone but a little better. I tried to use it and turn it on but after going back to the original security page it still says off or when I add a number to the part where it will notify you when the Sim I changed it doesn't save the number. Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm also using the tmobile variant of the s5

I am also using Omega ROM. And it is working in mine. Did you uninstalled or froze any system apps?... It might be due to that.

No... Mine is working properly, no matter what I do...
Hmm I'll pull a log cat.. I have done multiple clean installs and everything possible.. maybe it doesn't work with the T-Mobile variant.

After reading around and searching. The Samsung security feature is not on the t-mobile variant. The t-mobile one used lookout instead of findmymobile
