Hey guys,
Is anyone else experiencing very slow Camera switches? For instance, switching from the front camera to back (and vice versa). My buddy has the unlocked HTC 10 and his doesn't seem to be as bad but I have the Verizon variant and it's horrible. It's terribly slow in the stock camera and in Snapchat. Any help is much appreciated.

Hi. I'm new to the forums. Well at least I'm new to posting. I've been referring to these forums for help ever since i got my beloved epic 4g touch 6 months ago. Thanks to all the great people here btw...
The camera on the epic 4g has kind of pissed me off since the beginning with it's incredibly loud shutter (ugh) and the fact that the front camera mirrors after the picture is taken. It looks completely different from the picture I actually intended to take and I came from a crappy t mobile mytouch that didn't have this issue. I mean for most this is not a big problem but it drives me up the wall!
I've read about others complaining about this on the forum so I know I'm not the first...and someone posted about this on here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354648
and their problem was supposedly fixed by ptfdmedics fixed camera apk because it's based on galaxy s2's international camera which has an option to fix this (I guess?) so I rooted my phone just to do this and it doesn't work and makes my camera crash (ugh) I'm guessing because I'm on el29?
So now I'm on blazer rom 4.1 (which I love...so awesome worth the root btw...) and I don't have that annoying shutter sound but I still have the same problem. My question is is there a camera apk for epic 4g touch el29 that fixes it (based on international galaxy s2? or something) or is there a rom that has a camera that fixes it or any fix to this basically and also I would like to stay on blazer if possible. Sorry for the long post...
Hi people and thank you,
My front camera sometimes lags, this problem came just after buying it new, right now im using wicked v7 and it still, is this a phone issue?
I finally went on a trip this past weekend and tested the camera extensively. I took lots of 20MP pictures and 1080p videos, all of them outside. The camera keeps losing focus and has a very hard time finding it again. What's the problem? Is there a way to lock the focus or at least adjust it manually? Here is a video I recorded:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M33DArbxBcc&feature=youtu.be
This is really frustrating. At least 1/3 of the pictures I take come out blurry and out of focus, which is weird. I've taken pictures out of a moving car and many of them came out perfectly focused. Some of the other pictures I took without moving at all came out blurry. Videos are almost without exception guaranteed to go in and out of focus. I expected this phone to do better than that and am hoping it's a simple problem that can be solved. What has your experience been? How can you solve this?
P.S. I am using RomAur v1.2.
I have the same problem with stock rom. Focus is really bad. I hope they fix it in an update.
Same problem here with stock rom
Any updates on this issue? (here's another thread with no answers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703714)
I took some videos last week and I'm having exactly the same issues using rooted stock 4.4.4. The problem is even worse, if you are filming at night.

Your concern may be right. I didn't do many video testing in 4.4.4 so I can't confirm but I've also a feeling the focus is even slightly worse than 4.4.2 and quality is downed a bit too. The video is not sharp as and detailed because the denoise algorithm is stronger in 4.4.4.
True video lover might better stick with 4.4.2 but for most people they just won't notice it. But 4.4.4 is real improved photo so I think most guys will just go for 4.4.4.
Indeed, video is never real good on mobile, it is not Digital Video Recorder or DSLRs. HTC, Samsung and LG theirs video focus are not good too.
Strange...
I just tested it with my phone (rarely take any videos) and I had no problems with the focus. Even on quick change from near to far it adjusts quickly and does not lose focus.
I have the 4.4.4 stock camera installed.

hmmm.... in my post, I was talking only about video. Photo on the other hand already got improved focus in 4.4.4.
Testing camera indeed could be a very difficult and professional job because in every situation may got various results. You have no problem don't really meant others won't have it because we are in a completely different testing environment.
It won't everytime can't focus or all times can't do from near to far or else the camera is total defective and Sony will receive many complaint. The problem is our camera is always semi-break or buggy, it works but not that easy to predictable or unstable and works perfectly like a DSLRs because they got a much better software. The problem can be only happened in some specific environment.
after 3 months of using my LG G3 this is the 1st time that the camera begun to become less fast when taking photos. i thought it was because i rooted my phone and then I unroot my LG G3 f400k but the same problem occurs it takes time to shoot photos it will slightly load after taking a shot. before you can resume and shot a photo again... what should I do! thanks for the help!
Hello
I have only bought my LG unlocked European version a few weeks ago, and have had the same issue since new. It is just so so slow - incredibly slow compared with My wives iPhone 5 even... Keep missing photos of my children as they don't hold still for long!! only bought the G3 for a) the screen and b) the camera speed.. Screen is great, but camera so so so slow.... If anyone has any ideas how to fix this it would be very much appreciated from me as well..

Hi,
Same experience here, my wife's G3 is just rubbish indoors! It takes 2s to take a picture and than another 2s to let you take another one?! it does it make any sense it looks like some sort of HDR mode is enabled in the background - at least that how it feels. On top of that you can't modify the shutter speeds either manually or by choosing scene mode. CRAP CAMERA!
The most useful camera trick for me was being able to refocus pictures after taking them.
And the M9 does not support that. I do see that the picture quality is better than the M8. But I use this feature so much along with the other features made possible because of the DUO Camera. No M9 for me!! (Unless something changes)
Anyone else disappointed with the M9 (it feels like a... M7.5, if you already have the M8 ) for whatever reason ?
There is an app 4 that
Im disappointed with the m9 as well
You can download the Bokeh camera... Open the camera app.. click on the Camera mode button (4 round circles in the bottom left of the screen, Click the big + sign... D/L'd the Bokeh camera.
Ive had this M9 now for 2 days, the first m9 I had went back for overheating, even after the 340MB update.. it didnt help the overheating
Coming from an M8 I was aware that the M9 is an incremental update, not a new flagship, but I love the audio and the awesome 4 UltraPixel Cam, so why the hell did HTC give into the UltraPixel Bashing and join the wagon train of MegaPixels, Why didnt HTC develop a 6 or even an 8 Ultrapixel camera. As a result of this cowardice theyve f++ked the camera up big time.
I followed the guide given here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59821245&postcount=274
As well as experimented and tried and tested it, to no avail.. and as a result Im stuck with a device worse than what they released last year;
A 20MPx image I took, looks worse a 5Mpx from the HTC desire, pure mush on the details, yet an 8Mpx can Rarely look stunning (Sorry Ive tried but cant upload any pics)
If anyone can give me a reason to keep the M9, please convince me, or I may send it to eBay.
How about anyone else
I would give you my M8 for your M9
