Recently, when I turn on the camera there are numbers on the upper right corner of the screen such as 31503, in front facing mode and 7104 in rear mode. The camera has never had this problem and the pictures still turn out perfectly fine. I just don't know the numbers are there and I want to get rid of them. I'm also wondering if I wanted to reset the phone's camera would that delete my pictures? Any suggestions would appreciated!
No it wouldn't delete.

the numbers are still there...but reset didn't affect my pictures either
Use Motorola camera port. Maybe it would help. And disable geo tagging.
form your explanation i think that you are talking about the number of photos that the memory can store, so for the front camera it will store more than the back camera as it has less mega pixel and less resolution
My 5x will take pictures on it's own in the middle of the night. They are dark, blank as the room is dark. sometimes 10-15 pics and videos of a very short length- 5-15 seconds. I am not rooted, store pictures in stock Google Photos, back up to Picasa and also have Moments installed. Any ideas? Thanks.
Move out of your house immediately!

Sacrifice your sleep for a night and stay up watching your phone, and doing something fun ofc, and you will see if its a demon, system bug, or your little bro/kid.
This happened to me too

Hello, the exact same thing happened to me to at night when my phone's flash was used while taking pictures. It happened a lot of times. Then i figured that if i take snaps from my phone while my phone's battery is <20% it results in darker images but no that wasn't the case. I don't know why it happened. Sometimes i can't see a thing on my phone after taking a picture and sometimes the image is darker and sometimes it's normal.
And one more thing....what if i told you i take picture from my Nexus 5X and the picture gets instantly deleted without doing anything
I even made a video of it

Google Fi support has seen it before, say they can fix it.

Which one are you talking about?
Hi! I have the exact same problem with any custom rom (nitrogen os and purenexus). Could you find a solution?
I've flashed a bunch of ROMS and they all have the same issue. After a couple weeks, when I take pictures (especially with flash) the camera freezes and I need to remove the battery. Once it starts doing it, it usually keeps doing it for a few hours. Charging the battery to 100% seems to stop it from doing this. Has anyone else seen this? It makes me want to smash my phone.
i also have this issue. keeping the battery at 100% does not seem to help any. My issue is only with the Samsung camera app. A 3rd party camera app does not cause the problem, so I just switched to open camera.

Go to settings/application manager/system apps/ and find stock camera app open and clear cache and clear data reboot device.hope that helps.
that is the first thing I tried and on multiple roads, it did nothing.
Hello all, i noticed this about a week ago,
I open camera app, and the viewfinder shows a lot of stuttering, the lower the light (not night sight and not night time photos, day time) the more it struggles to instantly snap the photo.
And throughout all this, lag, stuttering and what appears to be the app having difficulty just keeping up with displaying the viewfinder objects accurately.
Anyone else having this problem?
I noticed it after i dirty flashed Dec update. but then i did a full wipe and clean install of the dec update.
Still on going
thanks!
Edit:
I've cleared data, uninstalled updates, reinstalled updates, disabled all substratum themes, nothing seems to make it better
Mine does the same thing. Stock December, rooted with magisk.

Oh my God well I'm happy I'm not the only one but I'm unhappy about it because the camera is really jittery now
Mine doesn't do it all of the time, it randomly does it. Does yours do it all of the time?

Just guessing but might be a HW issue. Perhaps there's a problem with the lens movement when trying to focus. You could try a different camera app to see if that makes a difference. Have you contacted Google support?

Not a HW issue as this happened after Dec update.
No, I don't talk to google unless it's about a replacement, their techs are tier 1 idiots, they ain't gonna tell me more than what I know at this stage, and we don't get to talk to the people that know more than us.
Edit:
Can more people chime in and confirm if this behavior is happening w\them ?

Mine did this a couple of times since the update too. It only happens when I first open the camera app but not all the time. It happened yesterday but I can't get it to do it since then.

Yep, can confirm it happens when I first open the app too, but also happens when I move the phone a lot and the view finder just struggles to maintain a steady image through the movement

Google probably messed with the ISO to improve the image quality. I don't get it often and my photos come out clear so it's not a huge deal for me. It's still a big improvement from the Note 9 I had anyway.

I know image quality is good but the UI behavior is something of concern. The user shouldn't be exposed to the lag like that. Drives me nuts
I have been travelling and this phone is the worst I have used for taking photos while moving, I missed so many photos since the camera would not respond to click, then ended up taking a photos a few seconds later. Annoyed me so much tried to turn off motion, but it seems you can't and I believe this is the main problem, my wife uses a Pixel phone as well Pixel XL and she did not have the same problem with the camera app at all, same OS update level and the new camera updated app. Once it has taken one shot with lag, then the following are quick and almost instant.

I have no problems taking photos of things in motion , just a slight hesitation when I first open the app for the first time. As I said before my Note 9 had problems with objects in motion, not so with this camera for me. You can turn off motion photo by tapping the motion icon in the photo app.

Disable HDR enhanced and then you will be able to turn off motion. After that you can turn on HDR again.

It's strange there is no consistency to this experience

You are right... I miss my Pixel 2 XL already, except for the screen. A much better phone, and the most amazing battery I have experienced... Pixel 3 XL just killed all my hype with the Pixel Line.
Update:
I flashed one of the roms and it had me bootlooping so i did another flashall, this time all i did was root, i didn't flash any kernel.
Stock rom, + Magisk, and issue is no longer present.
This MAKES NO SENSE.
Unable to sent images taken from camera to other contacts in whatsapp, it blackenes out, only force stop cache clean or a restart fixes the issue. Happens quiet frequent anybody else facing the issue.
Have you have granted camera permissions to Whatsapp?

Yes, it works fine for svreenshots and other pics but happens only on camera taken pics
I have exactly the same problem, phone is crashing when I make a photo in whatsapp, or make it and send it later with whatsapp. To send it, i need to restart the phone or make a screenshot of the photo...
Is there a solution for this wierd problem?
Mme also facing same issue with WhatsApp can't able share photos clicks with wide angle mode and macro mode
