[Q] Is the backlight led working properly with 2.2 ? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
We're having some problems with the led of the rear camera of the HTC Desire.
We've got an app that takes pictures using the torch mode and it's working great with other devices (N1, Galaxy S II,...) but with the desire the led goes off just before the picture is taken. We have tested others camera apps out there ("Camera Magic", "Distorted Camera") and it seems they have the exact same problem.
We were wondering if anybody knows what the problem might be?
Thanks

I dont know the problem, but you may install CyanogenMOD, which has a torch app)

Thanks, I will try CyanogenMOD and see what happens.
Could anyone confirm that the torch mode does not work in their htc desire with "Camera Magic" or "Distorted Camera" ? ^_^

Development is not for Questions or Problems
Please post in the Correct Forums
Moving to Q&A

Sorry for posting the thread in the wrong forum (it won't happen again ^^)
Thanks for the confirmation about the "Camera Magic"
I'm guessing it is a problem between Android and the HW of the desire. It's weird I cannot find anything related with it
Any suggestions?

It looks like a bad sensor. Is it happening consistently in different camera apps? What happens if you try a camera app such as Camera360 that lets you alter the ISO (in normal mode)?
If possible, can you upload samples taken against a solid white background under even lighting?
Please, anyone??? i have the same problem.... i've changed the camera, still fail
sounds like a hardware issue gents.

I had the exact same issue on HTC G2, it's indeed hardware. The great news is it's just a mechanical issue: Push on the camera, perpendicular to the battery case (straight into the phone). It will fix this issue.
Lots of success with this method at androidforums. I cannot post a link, but google "androidforums evo camera 152727"
Cheers

+1. I had this with all three of the G1's I owned, and I had it with my G2 not too long ago. Not sure why this keeps happening, but just put the phone screen down on a table, and push down on the camera. One of the strangest fixes ever but hey, whatever works!

SwiftKeyed from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
Latest 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23 And nowrecording in 720p is good, but playing very bad
Try another video player.

Re. camera restarting phone - it's been reported that when on autobrightness, the camera will reboot the phone sometimes. Using an alternative camera app (like Camera 360 for instance), or not using autobrightness for the display, will help.
I also had this problem, and since switching camera apps it hasn't happened.
Changing that and now work fine. Thx @rafithegreat .
And Video Recoring in 720p now is very bad. Even if I play in MoboPlayer it's not so smooth.
Now recordingin norma.
One more question: how to turn on Time Stamp when I'm taking photo?

dawpuc, I've your same problem.
I've tried to change some radios and rils, but the problem remains.
I don't want to use an alternative camera app, because I like the default app.
I also would like to continue to use the autobrightness utility, because I need it.
Can anyone help me?
P.S.: do you know how can I add the timestamp to my photos directly on the photo in one of the corners?
Why would anyone want time stamps?
On a digital camera, it is the very first thing I turn off.

Hi, I have the same problem using Insertcoin CM7 V1.1.2 . The problem has gotten worse since Insertcoin 1.1.1. Back then only the camera would crash.
Since updating to Insertcoin 1.1.2 the camera freezes the whole phone. I have to take the battery out to reboot manually.
I've used a card gparted with ext3 and ext4 both.
At one point the camera kept working but images were not saved properly. Windows then detected problems with the card and some images were placed in the found folder during the check.
The crashes also happen with the separate Sense 3 camera zip linked on Insertcoin's blog. To be honest that one does not look different from the bundled camera and I have the idea that the problems started with the Sense 3 camera.
Hope this makes more people aware of the issue and perhaps attracts the attention of a dev.

Moto Camera 6.0.24.9 APK?

I don't suppose anyone could post the extracted APK from the Moto Camera 6.0.24.9 update?
Says who? Attached.
This version is unsupportable on moto g3 stock non rooted android please find a way to support the app
Have a look at camera fv-5... It's great for low light shooting.
Also cinema fv-5 is great for low light recording.
Feel free to tap on thanks.

@Wolfcity I think this is the updated version. I am using this on aex. Just update using normal apk installation method over the old one.
On moto G4 Plus Camera FV-5 doesn't support some useful functions like RAW capture and ISO.(Though I don't know how to make them useful but it).RAW capture Functionality was already in M and ISO was there much before.
I think light metering is supported in moto phone from N.
Anyone big Fan for FV-5 apps?
Is there a thread for it on XDA?

Camera unable to focus - Sultanxda's rom

as the title says, recently when I open my camera app, the rear camera is unable to focus no matter what I do, the same happens with snapchat and other camera apps. I was wondering if this is an issue within the rom or if its a general OP3 issue and if anyone could help me attempt to fix it.
I'm on SultanXda's rom with the 19th of Feb patch. (would post this on the rom's page but my account is too new to reply on that)
Thanks in advance
Even I have this kind of issue and I am using resurrection reimx ROM. The camera is not focusing. Neither in the camera app nor in the apps like snapchat.
Hope someone has a solution for this.

really hope so, bit troubled at the moment since I can't take any photos
Just tried with rom-delieverd-snapcamera, and the focus is just working fine.
Just touch the screen, where to focus and snap.
Maybe you can give us some hint to reproduce?

sadly touch focus isnt working on my phone, starting to think it might be a hardware issue instead since it just suddenly started happening. I'm not too sure what is different from when it was working either :/ just that one day touch focus stopped working and auto focus stopped as well.
So you can wait for an update, or any other reported issues with focus on sultans rom oder you might try another rom, if it still exists, to make sure, its not a HW issue.
Ehy guyz, it is an hardware problem. U can fix it opening the phone and using some scotch to maintain in place the camera. Or send it in RMA. Or use a magnet near the camera, out of the phone's case as is possible to see in attached photo
