Htc Droid Incredible 2 :
Today i tried to use my camera but black screen appeared, i restarted the phone and nothing. It worked for a few pictures after i took out the battery and restarted the phone. Now every time i want to take a picture i have to take out the battery and restart phone So i wanted to ask you guys what would be the solution? Flash to another ROM? I didn't install anything, everything is stock. Camera worked good for 2 months just today stoped...
software : v2.3.3
same with my wife's phone. Anyone got a fix for this?
If you're running an AOSP GB ROM (which you probably are if the camera sucks) then do what I did and found the MIUI camera .apk file. You have to install it in your system folder, so be careful to rename it to whatever the original is, and remove the original camera .apk file.
USER BEWARE: I am not sober this evening. My advice should be taken with extreme caution. That being said, it worked for me on the OG dinc1, so I'm guessing it wouldn't be much different now.
I tried everything Instaled few ROMS (Zeus,MIUI,HD,CM) problem with camera stays... tried to install miui camera on stock rom worked for 10 minutes and then black screen again i guess is hardware problem, but i'm in europe now can't go to verizon store to return it. Maybe some other solutions?
How about Camera360? I use the paid version and love it!
camera360 uses the stock app(which doesn't work) so it is the same problem...
Well, hot dog! Never knew that one.
You learn something new every day, don't ya?
I'd still try it though. Just cuz.
It looks like sd card was causing problems with camera,as soon as i remove sd card camera works when i put the card back it works for 10 minutes and stops :S (I tried 3 different cards). For the last one hour camera is working (i instaled Skyrider Zeus ROM) but don't know for how long. Is there some app to mount unmount sd card from home screen, i don't want to open case to take out sd card every time camera not working?
My wife has the same phone as me but all she is running is stock rooted. My problem is her phone keeps getting corrupt photos. I have no idea what it is, a search doesn't help I can't find any problems like it.
Are there any suggestions for a fix? Pictures are her life and this is twice now its happend its not just a few pictures either it is like half her gallery?
Edit: she's on stock rooted ICS 4.0.4 and she says it's stock camera I have no idea what she's doing I think its to high tech for her
Hi guys,
I have a bone stock Note 2.
Since a couple of days ago, the gallery has been acting really weird. It would lag, freeze, ask to close/wait and even crash. When i zoom into the image, it would jerk and jiter even if my hands are of the screen. The upper part of the phone around the area of the sd card reader and front part fo the screen would become really warm to touch.
This is all of a sudden, mind you. Ive never experienced any lag in the gallery. I use it all the time over wiwfi to send images to my dlna connected devices without a hitch.
I thought my sd card was going back. i replaced the 16gb kinstaon card with a 32gb sandisk, and it hasn't made any difference at all. SAme problem.
The problem is alleviated if i switch wifi off. But ive never had to do that before. I have always hd wifi on and connected all the time with no problem until a few days ago.
I have all sync's off including cloud sync. There should be nothing syncing in the background.
Its not the sd card, it cant be the sd port as it works fine with wifi off... so im at a lost as i have no more ideas on what to trouble shoot.
Im thinking it may have been an update that i did not notice maybe? All share cast is not samsung link... dont know if that would do it...
I do hop ei get some insight to what is going in with my note 2.
Anybody else having similar problems or a solution?
Any and all help is much appreciated.
tried new card,.. same thing.
tried hard reset, and still same thing...
what else can it be?
hardware failure?
Figured it out!!!!
Plex media server was causing it. Once i disabled it on my PC, gallery is working like it should again.
Sorry to disturb, but am having problems and hoping some of the bright sparks here can help.
Camera: If I restart the handset I can go into Camera. I can sometimes take 2 maybe 3 photos. Then it stops. Sometimes it's if I use any photo app to take photo rather than Stock Camera. Sometimes it's if I've looked in the gallery. Camera then only goes to blank screen and occasionally advises of Camera Driver Failure. Also pops up with 'Failed to Take Photo. Camera Busy.' when not even taking one. I can't work it out.
Music: Stores automatically to internal memory. I want it on my HUGE empty SD card. Is there an easy way?
Running Sense and Stock Rom.
Thanks for any help.
I've have just recently noticed some really bad lag and delays when taking photos and moving into the gallery from the camera to preview the photos. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?
Let me know.
I have noticed this too. I just brushed it off as being touchwiz lag
I also have noticed this.
Yup. It's really annoying too since I don't think there's a way to set a time duration to see the photo you just took. It's either on permanently or not, so you have to exit the gallery to take a photo if you have preview on.

no lag to phone memory
I set all my camera and video to the phone memory and save everything else to the card
by chance is your settings to save to sd card? If it really annoys you, try saving to phone memory and move from camera to that, it is like a .2 second transition for me.

Mine was doing it before I even put in a memory card. Great thought though since phone memory should be faster.

I'm having the problem. I have also found other transitions are also slow, but that one is pretty regular.
I wonder if EVERYONE has this problem. I was going to claim a defect on this and get another one. If everyone sees this problem, then its obviously not a defect.

Yea I do have an SD card so maybe the photos are saving there. And when I press the preview button it is taking a while because it needs to access the SD card. Good thought.
It's the only lag that I've noticed on this phone, so far. Hopefully it'll be a software fix. It is kind of annoying.
This lag is driving me crazy...does anyone NOT have it?
Lag here as well...
It is pretty bad on my phone. Appears less like lag, and more like just freezing up. It eventually starts working again, but it just sits there for a while. Annoying.
Same here. Wonder if the new update fixes it.

Nope. For me anyway...
I experience lag going to the gallery from the camera app as well.
Sometimes it's lag. Other times it freezes the phone.
This happens with and without an SDcard installed.
This, the Recent Apps lag, along with other hiccups is making me not want to purchase another Samsung phone.
same lag here
glad to see it's not just me but also more disappointed that this is an issue I am sure they already knew about, before the update to 5.0, using unlocked att version so an ota will not work for me, it will have to manually installed. hoping to see something soon, since the camera is one of the biggest reasons I chose this device. my estimate is that we will not see anything to fix this, from either samsung or att.
On mine it takes about a second to switch. I don't call it lag. How long does it take on yall's.
It might be because I have a Developer Edition and had to flash the Lollipop update and kernel myself instead of taking the OTA.
