Every time I take a photo with the stock camera I get the system notification sound. It is NOT the shutter sound. If I have the shutter sound on it will play shutter and then quickly after it will play the default system notification sound. If I have shutter sound off, it will just play the system notification sound.
It's super F-ing annoying. I've checked the gallery app and google photos as I thought it might be something related to syncing but I have not been able to figure it out. Someone please help, it is so damn annoying.

You could try to catch the notification with an app like this, and figure out what's causing it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.hcilab.projects.nlog
And could try disabling notifications for Google photos app from it's info page, and Gallery app too just to narrow it down
Or disable Google photos completely and take a few photos as a test
Unfortunately none of that worked. I tested both notifications off for Gallery and Google Photos and neither fixed the issue. I sat for 30 minutes testing every setting i could find in the camera, across different shooting modes etc, and got nowhere. In the end, I wiped cache and data of the camera app, and voila, the sound is gone! Thank god. I was about to throw this phone through the wall. Still no idea what was causing it, and I have a sneaking suspicion it will return.

Sometimes clearing the system cache on the boot menu will stop erratically behaviors. It's a good idea to do occasionally and especially when having issues of unknown origins.
Apparently the cam data does get corrupted occasionally too. Or one losses tract of the many settings all over the place.
Lol, I've wiped the cam data once already on the 10+:laugh:

Not sure if this is a common problem. I couldn't find anything on the interwebs indicating that others are having this issue frequently.
It seems like my Camera application will almost never allow me to see the pictures that I've taken. When I tap on the picture preview it just goes to a blank screen. If I hit slideshow, it momentarily tries to take me to the slideshow and then bounces me right back.
Sometimes after force closing it with the system monitor app a few times will eventually let me see previews.
It's pretty infuriating that it does this and I have no idea what would cause it. I'm thinking about buying Vignette, but in my opinion the stock camera should work.
Any ideas?
You know what I just noticed - it appears to be the gallery app and not the camera app. Anyone else have this problem with Gallery?
It is most likely a media scan issue with the gallery (sometimes my pictures take a long time to show up on their own as well).
You can either reboot the phone or use an app to rescan media. There are a bunch out there (search market for rescan or scan media). Or if you are running CM6, you can choose the function in the built-in Dev Tools app. Tasker also has this function built in if you wanted to set up something like forcing a rescan every time you exit the Camera app.
I am having a bunch of issues with my device, some of which I had with my first device, which i smashed the screen.
I get system FC, and many apps, mainly twitter FC alot. This happened alot with my first device as well.
If I open the camera while music is playing (Poweramp), sound comes thru the speaker for a few seconds. Embarrassing as i take the train.
Screen rotation takes forever.
I get vibrating notifications randomly with nothing new incoming. LED doesnt indicate a notification though.
Any thoughts?

When's the last time you rebooted your phone? Cleared the cache? Cleared davlink? Are you rooted? Running a custom rom? Installed a different kernel? More information about your set up is needed.

Stock. Cleared cache, reboot a few times a week. What is davlink?
Still having this call log issue as well. Only get 3 days of logs, and not even all the calls I make:

Hello, I have a Sprint LG optimus G (model LS970) phone that runs on Android 4.1.2. I rooted (left a stock ROM) it to get rid of the shutter sound. Everything including Instagram worked just fine. Last time I was able to upload and post a photo on Ig was 2 weeks ago. Now 3-4 days ago I noticed the shutter sound came back on my camera. I was surprised as I made changes in the build prop and deleted the shutter sounds audio files. I went and tried to change it back but all the settings were the same as I left them. But now if you put the phone on silent the shutter sound goes away too, which it didn't do before the root. Anyway trying to upload a photo to Instagram it gets stuck on loading phase (after applying filters) and never comes out of it. The video doesn't work either as soon as I'm done recording it just resets back to start. Everything else on instagram works. I tried to upload photos both by taking a picture on IG and trying to upload from the gallery and dropbox with the same result. I tried to restart the phone and uninstall the app several times but it didn't help. What do I do? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Do you have any programs that blocks packets like LBE Security or Xprivacy?

I have no idea, what would they be for example?
I've seen threads about performance issues when charging etc and I have them myself!
One thing that completely destroys me is the performance when trying to take a quick picture or use an app that uses the camera.
E.g. barcode scanners move the complete opposite direction
Snapchat is also practically unusable. When I open it, it completely s**ts itself every time and is unusual!
I guess my question is..... Do you think custom ROMs and recoveries will solve the issues?
Thanks

I definitely think we should see some optimizations in the next weeks. Snapchat would crap out on me and eventually cause the camera module to crash. It got to the point that the camera would turn black within Snapchat and even within the camera app itself. Only fix was to reboot the phone to get the camera working again. Yesterday I received a snapchat update, not sure if it was meant to address performance issues, but it now works more smoothly and doesn't crash as often. There is definitely room for improvement!
It's really doing my head in and glad I'm not on my own in seeing this!! I don't know anyone else with the 5x to compare so been searching online.
I timed it today, I rebooted the phone and left it 5 minutes without opening anything. I fired up the camera app and it took 124 seconds (just over 2min) until the app was ready to take a photo (the blue circle showing around the shutter button). Then tapping the button to take a photo took a further minute to take the actual photo. Then the phone was that sluggish it needed a reboot.
Not sure if it's the hardware, the os or the app but I've tried Open Camera too and that seems to be really really slow. And, as the OP says, Snapchat totally craps out as do other apps that use the camera.

I just tried the same test. The camera app opened and was ready to shoot (blue circle showing) in about 2 seconds. Double pressing the power button to open the camera app had the blue circle around the shutter button showing right away
Every now and then it does work perfectly. But more times than not there is a massive lag. Usually after the phone has been on for half a day, but like this morning sometimes when it's just turned on.
I've experienced the same issues mentioned by you guys, especially in the OP.
Snapchat has practically been completely unusable until the most recent update, and that only marginally improved things. The root cause seems to be the camera itself, as I'm only seeing this type of lag in apps that access the camera. I can't help but imagine Google is working on a fix for this in the very near future, just one of those 'early adopter' issues I guess. It has caused me to do daily reboots just about, which is very aggravating because that defeats the purpose of a good camera if you miss the moment you're trying to capture. As I'm sure you guys have noticed, when the camera app actually works properly, the pictures are pretty impressive, which makes it all the more aggravating that it can't be used as fluently as designed.
Hoping for all of our sake that Google fixes this soon.
I'm in the same boat.

could u please test camera functionality with this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.geekstools.cameraW
and if possible gather log info
Thanks
So I'm kind of concerned with this unusual sound the camera makes whenever I open the camera app (or any other app that uses it; Snapchat, VSCOcam, etc). I can physically hear the camera making a somewhat stronger focusing / refocusing sound as soon as the app opens, as well as physically feeling the vibration from the sound it makes throughout the phone. What I see on the screen is the picture regularly refocusing on the image, although every photo I take has been beautifully flawless. At the same time I feel like it's the camera dying on me, hopefully not.
Restarting & clearing cache/data on the camera app unfortunately does not fix the problem. Hope I'm not the only one out there with this problem.

You sure it's not the optical image stabilization? If you zoom in all the way and look at your camera , shake the phone and you can see it move...also close the camera app and hold your phone to your ear and shake it , you can hear it move.
