Hi
On my G4 the front camera looks like it has become cropped and doesn't fit the whole screen, see attached image. I have tried restarting the phone.
Any ideas why this has happened, if I use the main camera it is fine and if I use dual mode it is also fine, it wasn't always like this, i have changed the ratio settings and that doesn't do anything.
Anyone else had this?
You have the flash mode on. Turn off the flash icon and it will go back to normal.

Ah, so the "flash" mode on the front camera is actually using the whiteness of the screen itself for illuminating your face as it faces the white screen? Clever...
Ahhaaaaa thank you was driving me crazy!
FYI it does this too if you lowered the screen DPI. The rear camera is fullscreen but the front camera is letterboxed.
Hello,
After launching the camera application, when I select the front camera, the app shows a black screen for a few seconds, then crashes back to home screen with no error message.
The rear camera and everything else work fine.
I replaced the front camera or/and the daughter board the symptom is the same no front camera works.
I need help please.
Best regards.
I have the opposite problem. After removing my daughter board, the camera app just exited. After replacing my rear camera, only the front facing seems to be working (and no flash)

So I know about the typical camera issues that this phone has, however, when I noticed the built-in camera app start having issues with the rear camera, I also noticed the LED flash was also starting to go black in the bottom left corner.
Does the LED need to be working in order for the camera to work?
I also cannot use the flashlight, as it shows the error that it can't be used in Camera or other apps (no surprise, positive it's burnt out).
Screen side (front) camera is fine. But suddenly main camera won't auto focus. Tried toggling. Restarting. Removed battery and cleaned the guts and SIM. Still no auto focus.
unlocked and rooted, but stock ROM.
Is the little red LED the auto-focus and does it come with a camera module?
So using the *#808# diagnostic menu I can see the the first rear camera is inoperable but the second rear camera and the front camera work. I know about the *#*#1576#*# or whatever thing that pulls up the camera and should let you cycle through which one it's using. However because it first tries to pull up the dual camera before you can switch, the app crashes. I also tried the nokia camera that lets you select individual camera modules and the same thing happens. Is there anyway to change my camera preference or to disable the first camera so it defaults to the second rear camera?
Thanks.
