Hello!
I Have a Problem with a LG G3 Camera.app. When take photos is all right, but when I want to record a video, the app stops. This happens immediately when I press the camera icon. I've tried with a Google Camera and with it I can recor a video.
What could be wrong? How can I fix this?
Greetings, Tomas
And now even the Goole Camera does not work.

Hey dudes,
Here my problem:
Since I first modded my Defy, I lost camera auto focus capability. Have you any idea how to solve it?
I can't read barcode anymore.
I'm using a Pays rom 5.1.
Thanks!
Sent from my Defy.
u tried uninstalling the app and then reinstalling it again?
I have a similar problem with Pays 5.1:
Mostly the camera works but the picture is cut somewhere (rest of the screen is in the color of the last pixel recorded correctly I think) and the screen is frozen for a few seconds until the camera works again (picture is not saved)
and sometimes the whole picture is black or very dark (saved, but useless).
Maybe this happens because of an error in this rom?
I don't know, but I tried to uninstall and then reinstall the application, but it didn't work.
It seems that CEE and UK roms don't use the proper AF setting..

I'm using 3.4.2-155-CEE in Barebones 1.3 and it's ok. There's jpeg fix on the Barebones thread (on the latest pages), but i don't know if it can help, since Pays use 3.4.3-11
I flashed 3.4.2-155-CEE (no custom rom, no data) and took about 20 pictures - no error.

I have the same problem with S.Froyo Cee Edition.... Sometimes i can not take a picture because of freezing screen with the lower part painted with plain color. Sometimes it's ok. When i was on a factory firmware 3.4.2-155 there were no problems with the camera....
I am using official french 2.2.2 update(since my defy is from france). I've updated it trough motorola defy, and my phone lost auto focus. On 2.1 there was the rectangle and when it gets green the camera takes the photo, now it just snaps without the focus.
:/
I've tried camera 360, and auto focus works there, but I need a fix for the stock app. :/
EDIT: I've went to Settings/manage applications/Camera and clicked on the Clear Data, and now auto focus is back!
hi all.
i had a similar problem: after update from 2.1 to 2.2.2 (cee stock both), auto-focus stopped working. tried the "clear data", but without a success. i didn't want to make factory reset, so i tried "fix permission" from rom manager. at first, it threw an error, because it didn't find the busybox. installed it to "/system/bin". after that, fix permission run without an error, reboot, and focus is working again.
just for record
Hello,
I am using French 2.2.2 stock rom and since the update from 2.1, I lost the autofocus. I tried to clear all data from the stock camera app but it did not work. I also tried fix persmissions from Rom Manager as said above but with no luck.
I noticed that the autofocus does not work with Camera360 and Barcodescanner either...
Any clue on what I could try (without a full reset which would be my last resort ) Thanks!
same here
I have the same problem since Cyanogenmod 7.1 flash.
I tried the "clear app data" method and the "fix permissions". Still I can't get any focus.
Some help please ?
Thanks
I have the same problem, neither the clear data nor the fix permissions didn't work...
Hello,
same problem for me, so that programs like prixing or barcode scanner don't work properly .
Thanks
Very annoying problem, I tried everything.
Factory reset, fix permissions, clear cache.
I have WajkIUI (Miui based custom rom) and the 2 camera app do the same. Auto focus is dead.
What is your opinion, it this a hardware related issue?

I can tell you (from personal experience ) that it is possible for the camera module auto focus to break, the camera will still work "normally" but just won't focus.
Mine is/was a SoC module, so I've just been looking to see if I could find a Bayer module to replace it. I haven't found one yet though....
Have you tried going back to a stock ROM yet?
I didn't try jet.
Is it possible that the rollback solve this issue?
I don't even know what is my camera module, but when I arrive to home I will check it.
Well it appears that it might not be the actual camera itself that is broken, I've just replaced mine and the autofocus still doesn't work
I've tried flashing stock sbfs, and also all the suggestions above as well, so I was "sure" it was the actual camera that was broken.
I have absolutely no idea what to try now. Maybe the power for the focus motor in the module comes from a different place to the main camera power?
Does anyone know how to get more detailed debugging information on what happens when the camera is told to focus?
Even if you press and hold the camera soft button it will not focus and give you the green square?
How about booting the phone.. is there any clicking sound from the camera that it auto adjusting itself?

No, whatever I press, the green square never appears, and there is no clicking sound during boot.

Did you manage to get a Bayer camera module from SBE like you said you were going to try in this thread?
I got this issue lately when I try to zoom while recording video the camera app crashes and the recorded video is not saved (is corrupted and not playable). This used to work in the first week I got the phone, I remember using it at least once. I tried clearing data and cache for the app, but no joy.
Anybody else has this issue ?
For me it works just fine on Full Hd - 1080p and UHD - 2160p
This problem appears to be specific to the T-Mobile version. I asked around on Reddit to verify. I too have this same issue. Has anybody found a fix? I'm using the Google camera for right now as I don't need 4k video recording. Maybe a software reimage would help? It's possible they were shipped with a bad image on the device.
I had the same crash in my att device the first time I used it. Exactly the same . video and zoomed and I noticed it didn't refocus then it locked up.

Does it still happen? Were you able to fix it without using another camera app?

I find it hard to believe this phone was even QA'd. Such a basic, useful function was broken out of the factory for almost everyone.
Mine works fine - I will admit I didn't try zoom when I first got it, and now I have updated the media xml files with the ones in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2778570
Not sure if that is making it work or not but works perfect for me.
If I get this same issue will just return my phone...this is crazy!
What I forgot to mention is that I have switched to ART. Could this be the cause ? Anyone with ART enabled on their G3 has this problem ?
Just to answer my own question, I switched back to davlik and still have this problem
I'm having the same issue. Mine is an AT&T LG G3 D850 not rooted and using ART. I was thinking about switching back to DAVLIK but seeing as you tried that and it didn't work for you.... I even restated the phone.
Unfortunately the v10e update doesn't fix this problem we're having
Have you reported it to LG yet ?

My G3 international version D855 had this problem ... i applied a hard reset and it works ... now it's fine with zooming while recording
I hope that may help
Its a bug in the LG Camera App. I just tried it on the LG camera app = crash, downloaded Google Camera = No crash on zoom while recording.
Edit: LG D850
Just got my G3 on Verizon about a week ago, same problem. Zooming in camera works fine but not with video. It did a few days ago, just noticed today that it doesn't work.
Edit: Tried the files that nest75068 suggested, didn't work for me and ended up making the Camera app crash even when trying to start a video. Google camera worked initially with video, crashed when I tried to switch to the front camera and now crashes on start. Focal also crashes when starting a video.
I'm having this on my unlocked UK (2GB) D855 variant. I've only noticed crashes while zooming while taking 4K video however.
Yesterday got a phone call from LG support. He said he was second line support, but I had to spend 5 minutes explaining to him what ART and Dalvik are and another 5 minutes trying to convince him that sending the phone to LG won't help. Disappointed, but no different from Samsung or HTC support in that respect.
If you have this problem please report it to LG, maybe if they have few more reports they will pull their finger out of their ass and do something about it.
I've called them and they couldn't help me either. I also asked them about there wireless charging stand that they announced along side the G3 announcement and where I could buy it... the person I talked to didn't know what I was talking about... they didn't even understand what PMA and Qi wireless charging was! I asked if they could connect me to someone who knew about there products and they said I had to call back to talk to someone else.... ?WHAT!?!?
I wasn't even aware you COULD zoom while doing video, but tried this at all resolutions except the slowmo and reproduced the bug.

Sadly i have same problem and some times i get camera not available .I am using 4k and slowmo fix.I wonder if thats the case
No, it's not a problem with the mods you're using. I have the same issues with the standard firmware without any mods applied.
Hoping for an update soon to fix these issues.
Don't update to .108 but wipe the system and flash it from scratch.
Try removing sd card and see.My problems went away (delay,stuck etc) after replacing sd card (64g sandisk ultra) back to a g.skill 32g works like charm.
That is normal,since kitkat we all have problem's with camera,there is memory problem i hope sony will fix this soon...
Hadn't any problem with mine so far, also upgraded to .108 via OTA.

I have been able to fix this issue on two Z1C phones using the following steps:
Reboot into safe mode
Clear Data and Cache for all camera apps and services
Turn off "Touch anywhere to capture" in camera settings
Uninstall SnapChat
Uninstall Skype
Reboot and voila!
Various reports online suggested that Skype and Snapchat are causing the Z1C issues, combined with the Touch Anywhere to capture feature.
This should fix your problems - although Sony still have to actually fix the firmware so that you don't have to do that
Doesn't work for me but its a problem of the camera somethimes i do photos with the Google camera and somethimes after i take the foto it freeze the app for 10 second or forever

the initial press from a fresh bootup is slow to open the camera app.
Afterwards its super quick.

I have the Verizon G3 & my camera stopped working recently. Even got the o.t.a. update for something to do with the camera....didnt fix it either way. I've looked for stock firmware updates to no avail. Is your camera app opening, but you just cant do anything? Cuz mine tells me unfortunately camera is not working. 3rd party apps dont help either...ugh
Try disabling "OK Google" hotword detection. It fixed my camera error.

I just rooted my phone last night and I noticed that when I use my camera, the phone would randomly reboot after taking a picture. When it does boot back up, 8-10 percent of the battery life is drained!?! has anybody else had this problem? I do have Xposed installed but I dont have any mods for the camera selected. I have the same problem using both the LG camera app and Googles camera app.. Any help would be appreciated!

Try and delete all exposed mods. Reboot and then try. Remove the google camera to and see. Then add 1 by one till you find the mod or app giving you the issue
BAD ASS G3
cool i uninstalled googles camera app and everything seems to be working just fine now thanks!
