Got a sweet Red one yesterday. Camera wasn't launching right from the get go, restarted it, camera worked for a bit then it crapped out again. Did a master reset this morning and the camera was working.... But then it stopped. It will not launch. It try's then goes back to the home screen.
Any known threads that address this problem? Or maybe a fix...

My brothers phone had the same problem, I reset the phone by holding the power and volume down button and it works fine now.
hi all
i bought a new xolo q 1000s just before a week. i remember i had checked the rear camera from the shop. after four or five days, when i tried to use the camera for the first time, it shows only the front camera, no option anywhere to shift to back camera. i tried a lot, installed other camera apps to get the back camera, but i didn't get it. then i did factory reset, after that the camera app itself went missing. my phone is not rooted. but no camera app is seen. installed other apps. they shows only front camera. i went to settings>apps and reset app settings, no use. when i tried to shift camera in cymera app, it said you have no front camera! meantime showing the front camera, and being unable to use the back one. when tried flash light app it says you have no flash light, but my mobile has one. tried factory reset four times, through settings menu and pressing home+ power+ volume up. same story!
so please help me, as i bought the mobile from india, and now in Dubai, unable to go back soon to india to approach a customer care center.
Thanks in advance
Hello Everyone. I have my new Samsung S6 Edge about 3 weeks now. It worked flawlessly the first week and a half but lately I've been getting an intermittent problem with the sensitivity of the touchscreen and it is very annoying. I have to swipe, touch a letter (if texting), or touch an icon, multiple times before it will execute the touch. Sometimes it seems as if it is in slow motion where the execution responds 4 to 5 seconds after the touch. There has not been any new software added and I always close out of any running programs.
I have tried all of the following to which none had any effect:
a) Restarting the phone by using the on/off key dialog box
b) Shutting it down for a couple of minutes and starting it again
c) Using Samsung's method to restart the phone by holding the on/off key and down volume key simultaneously
After a day and a half of frustration I was ready to take it back to my mobile supplier when it all of a sudden starting working properly after checking to see if my phone volume was at the maximum volume by hitting the up volume button. It worked well for about 3 days and then started to do the same thing. So again, I played with the volume down and up buttons until the touchscreen sensitivity worked.
I'm currently having the same issue again which prompted me to post this message. Playing with the up and down volume keys seem to help it at a ratio of about 7 out of 10 times. I've searched the web but haven't found anyone else with the same issues. A look at the Applications Manager under Running apps, System is taking up 1.1 GB, Apps taking up 530 Mb, leaving 0.99 GB of free memory.
Any suggestions? Maybe I should be taking it back for a hardware replacement?
Thanks for listening.
OK, so now I've come to the conclusion that hitting the volume up key was just a fluke although It seemed to help sometimes. S6 touchscreen returned to normal again yesterday afternoon. It just comes and goes which makes it rather difficult to show a mobile technician. I'll have to wait until it malfunctions again before taking it in to a Samsung Repair shop.
Me too....
I have subscribed to this thread, in hopes of finding some clues, because I too, have noticed the same exact behavior that OP described and was searching for a remedy/explanation. Also, had the volume up and seemed to somewhat fix it, but like OP said it is sporadic. I, by accident in trying to clear the cache, completely blew away my phone and had to rebuild my phone as I had before and even after a complete reset, I still have the same behavior.
Hi Chris, I stumbled across another interesting behaviour. While the phone is acting up, if you press and hold the UP Volume key (keeping it depressed) you will be able to scroll and press icons as normal. As soon as you let go of the volume key, the issue continues.
This is a link to a video I uploaded today to You Tube that shows exactly the issue I am having.

Just saw your vid, looks like yours is more pronounced than mine (non-Edge btw) and happens once in a while and then it goes away - I am hoping it isn't progressive. I can't seem to identify what triggers the sluggish behavior. I typically clear all apps from the recent apps as a matter of my normal operation in all my previous smartphones. When I notice it the most is when pulling down the notification center and either nothing happens or I have to pull down the shade all the way down for it to stick, otherwise it slides back up.

Thanks Alex, I tried your suggestion and disabled Briefing, cleared the cache & data, then restarted the phone. It did not fix the problem.

for me it's much better..still think it's also the memory problem..as around a half day all is fine..than the lag starts..
Took the phone to a Samsung Repair Shop today. Turns out the LCD display was malfunctioning. It took them 1.5 hours to repair and replace under warranty. Hopefully I won't have anymore issues with it

actually it really helped a lot
thx bro
Yes, I did that same thing, and it did help a LOT.. however after the latest update (I have the Edge+) the issue returned.. did it again, and it "fixed" it, but for how long?
And why is this happening??
My Moto E was working fine.
About a week ago, I went to use my work app and the tap to snap a picture feature is no longer working.
I tried a soft reboot of the phone and it still doesn't work.
Is there anyway to get this back without doing a hard reset?
I got my Blackview BV6000 two weeks ago and everything was working just fine, until after a week I think, camera started to present the message "Can't connect to the camera". After closing and opening it a few times it eventually worked as it was supposed to. It annoyed me a lot so I wrote on official Blackview forum about this problem. Admin replied that I should try factory reset. I did, and I regret it. After opening the camera application works normally, until I tap the screen anywhere. As long as I for example take photos or videos with physical button, everything is fine, but if i want to use on-screen ones or change something in settings - phone freezes and I have to lock-unlock it a few times to make it react for touch, then i can turn the frozen camera app off. Sometimes it even makes the phone restart. Other applications using camera dont work too, they also freeze when i tap anywhere on the screen.
Is it software problem? Official Blackview forum isn't helpful at all.
Nobody knows what may be the problem? Looks like the software to me since i can still take pics with physical button.
