That's really weird. Unfortunately so far you are the only one having this issue. If you still don't see it, I'd bring it back to a Corp store.

Make sure you're on the rear camera. The front facing camera only has simple and auto. The rear facing camera has simple, auto, and manual.

Manual here
I can confirm I have manual.
Sure you weren't on from cam? Our panoramic mode or something? Or did you change dpi?

I've changed dpi and still have manual mode on the camera. The only thing I can think of is that OP was on the front-facing camera.
I wasn't sure in the dpi. I know it made the sdcard button disappear on the g3, so thought it might be a possibility.

Just got the phone today. I love it. But for some reason, the auto focus isn't working on my camera. I've tried everything. Played around with different settings. I've taken about 8 photos. All have been blurry. Any thoughts?

Try a factory reset. If that doesnt work then return the phone. This phone has one of the best cameras I have seen on a phone.

Why do you think it is broken?
Sent from my R800x using XDA
Mine might be different, but I get "cannot connect to camera" when trying to use the front camera 90% of the time. It randomly starts working, but it'll always stop again.
If you're under warranty, send it in.
I'm not under warranty any more, and i get the same message, only i get it everytime.
And then can't switch back to the back camera.
Only a reboot allows that, most of the time.
Try re-flashing whatever firmware you have and/or doing a factory reset.

Clear cache and data of the camera app. Had that happen to me before.
Sent from my R800x using XDA
Done both of those multiple times in the past. does not change a thing.
It's the same behaviour back on Stock, om CM7/9, Stock ICS Beta and MIUIv3 (haven't tested the v4).
Clearing the cache does do nothing without a reboot, while a reboot most of the time fixes it allready.
Probably a hardware fault. Maybe the connection with the camera is loose, or the part itself could be broken.

I think that is what's up with mine, as I said, on rare occasions it will work, then if I flip to the back cam and back to the front I get the cant connect message. Loose ribbon cable or something methinks.
So.. Taking it apart and trying to fix it seems to be the only way for now.
Bummer, that there is no analytic software for purposes like this, yet.

Sweet, sounds fun to fix.
As far as a way of checking & knowing if it's broken u can try *#*#7378423#*#* to enter service menu from phone dialer. At least that's the service menu number for r800i, I think Verizon's r800x was different number. You can check almost all parts of the phone But I don't remember if front & rear camera had an option.

I punch in that number, and at the very last digit (*) it erases everyting I just typed, but doesn't go to a service menu. Might be an ICS beta thing though..
Nope, getting the same on CM7 R800i.

Hi! I've been having some issues like the ones previously described (camera cannot connect, etc): most of the time the front camera doesn't work and when it actually does the image quality is awful. I tried using what you said to access service menu ( *#*#7378423#*#*) and it worked. It does have a rear & front camera option. Main camera works just fine. However, when I try to test the front camera it doesn't work. Is there any way to fix this like reinstalling the camera apk?
If so, where can I get the camera apk?

you would need the service menu apk in /system/app for the service menu to work

Hi,
My treat camera used to work fine, but one day started the autofocus started to fail, and pictures taken are blurry.
I've checked using other camera applications (which don't use the laser focus) but all are having the same issue.
I've ordered a new camera and changed, just to find the same issue.
I've noted that when using the magic mode, the pictures taken can be manually focused and they are good as they used to be.
I've also run the camera test on the hidden menu, and it shows AF failed.
Any idea? Is it possible to calibrate the focus of the camera?
Thanks in advance.

SOLVED
I had to buy another camera, and now it is working.
It cost me about 10 US$ on ebay.

When I open the camera app, the screen is shaking hence can't take photos. Only happens on the rear camera photo and video. When taking selfies everything is ok. I already tried factory reset and it's still the same.
Can't attach the short video here, maybe someone can help me so I can show you guys.
Thanks for any info.

If this issue persists after FDR it is likely a hardware issue. Is your bootloader unlocked? As a last chance to rule out software you may want to try installing a full factory image from fastboot. Otherwise do you have any warranty options?
Maybe a video stabilization issue. Turn off the software option and see if it does anything. Either way, I would get a replacement.

Something weird, I tapped the camera lens at the back a bit hard multiple times and it fixed the issue. Problem is, after a few hours it shakes again and I have to tap the lens again for it to go away.

Sounds like a hardware issue to me. Time to explore any warranty options you may have.

Yep same problem, you can solve it by tapping to focus before pressing shutter, and also night mode during the day seems to work too
When I manually updated my phone I had the same issue. Try to wipe cache partition in the recovery. It worked for me.

Tried that, didn't help, it's trying to focus which is why tapping to focus first fixes it, hopefully fixed in another update
I'm also facing this issue, I'll try the tap to focus and see if this helps until they fix it
Maybe try to clear data for camera app? I've read somewhere that it helps.

I have the same problem. I tried all your suggestions and still takes at least 5 seconds to take the picture. In Live focus is even worse rejecting completely to take the picture. Any other suggestion, please ?

Tap to focus before hitting shutter fixes it, then wait for an update from Samsung for a real fix

Hello i have exactly the same problem on my galaxy ultra.
This focusing problem is really frustrating.
I hope Samsung will fix it in the next update.
