Selfie camera doesn't work - strange - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wondering if someone have camera problem like this.
My front camera (selfie), doesn't work. When i change from my back camera to front, it just stays black but with all camera buttons (take photo, flash on/off...) After that i can only press home button to get me to home screen. When i start camera again , it happen all the same, so if i want to change to back camera i need to press quickly "camera change".
Is this software or hardware problem? I tried to clear cash but problem stays, also tried other cam apps.

Camera problem.

To turn camera on-of.
As above, I bought this camera second hand knowing that the camera was not working (I can install new camera myself).
Before I buy a new camera or the camera board, can I find out if the camera can be turned on or of in the registry?
Both the front and the rear camera not working, when I go to "Camera and Videos"
and press the camera icon it changes from white to black (the icon) but nothing happens. I can watch the photos and videos.
My thinking is that either the "Rigid-flex board" has to be changed or the cameras themselves has to be changed. But both cameras would not crap themselves at the same time?
I try to see if I can find anything in the forum but after more then a week search I gave up.
Thanks.

PHEEEEW, did I stump everybody?
I would really like to use my phone.

Does the camera of the sgs perform AF automatically in "stills" mode?...

I noticed that as long as I don't touch the screen to choose a point for the camera to focus on, it won't autofocus.
It should be like that?... will it focus only if I choose the point manually by touching the screen?...
Hold down the take photo button and it will auto-focus, release and photo.. I've noticed many cameras do it this way, but I too wish there were a way to tell the phone to always autofocus completely before taking a photo (I might be wrong, but I do get the impression too that it doesn't)
you can also go into the camera menu, and tick the check box to be on all the time

focus problem

hello! it's just me in the camera does not allow me to focus in the whole left side of the screen? I'll explain when I press to focus on the entire central and right out the circle of focus come and so the image is focused, while on the left, across the strip below the key settings, if I press does nothing and the circle of focus doesen't appear.I have deleted the cache of the camera and does the same problem, while other cameras like the google cam work correctly .I haven't problem to touch because it works well on any app and also in test mode. it's the same for all the note 4? also you have this problem?How i can solve it?
sorry for my veeery bad english
No one?
It seems that you can only touch to focus in the center and just beyond the center of the frame - not near those buttons. This appears very much by design, and I'm sure Sammy wanted to avoid people accidently pressing buttons when they wanted to refocus - if you need to focus on something on the edge of the screen, bring the object to the middle of your viewfinder, press and hold (to lock focus) and re-frame the shot.
Glad I'm not alone with focusing problems...
Here is my topic : Note 4 camera won't lock focus + blurry edges on pictures with far focus
Best regards,

Camera unavailable

Anyone else having issues getting Camera unavailable? I can use third party camera apps and access both rear cameras.
But if I use the stock one and switch to the rear camera I get "Camera Error" Camera Unavailable.
I also had that today for the stock video but trying a second time it worked.
Yea mine just keeps doing it over and over, OpenCamera runs both cameras just fine, but doesn't see the front camera lol, front camera works fine and non-wide rear works fine on stock app.
I tried to run a full KDZ reset, but it doesn't let me refurbish, only upgrade, so if there is something wrong with the files in there, I fear they may not have been fixed.
Have you tried uninstalling OpenCamera and see if it goes away? I had this happen on an older phone, after a reboot it would work, come to find out, another app was holding the camera open
Yea I've tried using a fully reset phone, after digging more it looks like if the camera is in "Selfie Mode" the rear cameras work, but it's like if the selfie camera is no longer being detected by anything.

Front Camera Problem

front camera reacts very slowly, when I turn the camera back and forth quickly, the picture comes a second later. Is it hardware error?
