On MK2, rooted, safestrapped, running stock rom, debloated (frozen) with TiBu
Has anyone else experienced failure of the rear camera? I noticed it intermittently last week, but now fails every time I try to use any camera apps. The stock camera app loads/runs but the screen is black and it will not take photos. Flash works. Front camera works. I'm afraid I got a bum hardware issue and will have to ship back to Vzw. Any ideas?
Thanks.

im having issues with my rear camera focusing. its completely blurry, it doesnt even attempt to focus. only thing ive done is run cm 10.1's march 6th nightly and was going through the new focus modes, and all of a sudden, it stopped. ive factory resetted it, ive went completely bare bones stock, used odin to restore. still having issue. help? lol
My camera does not work. I took the phone apart and felt the camera chip get warm so it should be working. Also the t959v front camera works on my vibrant but still no back camera. Tried all types of ROM and kernel combos.
Hey guys,
Sometimes when I launch my camera, it makes a loud buzzing noise and has trouble focusing. It seems like something is getting in the way of the lens not allowing it to move freely. If I shake really quickly it usually stops and works like it should. I don't know if it's a lens issue or am issue with the OIS. Has anyone else had this issue and if so have you found a solution? This is my second S6 Edge. The first one succumbed to the auto rotate bug. Thanks for your time.

I was facing the same issue from the past 3-4 days. It starts buzzing (not all the time, but frequent enough to get me mad) when you open the camera app, and might stop the buzing if you try to focus manually.
I went to Samsung service center yesterday, and they did confirm it was a fault camera hardware (don't know the much details yet). They ordered new camera hardware and expected delivery date by tomorrow.
Hoping, the new camera module be with out any issues.
To any one, i have been using the phone for the past ~2 months, and saw this issue occurring in the past 3-4 days. Is any one facing the same issue?
Maybe i will send an e-mail, and see whats happening with these Camera hardware...
So I got the V10 on T-Mobile the day it was announced that the bootloader was factory unlockable. I love it so far with one somewhat concerning exception (apart from the laughable battery life but *shrug*): the majority of the time when I try to use the back camera, I'm not able to focus it. In auto mode tapping to focus does nothing. In manual mode sliding the focus dial also does nothing. Third party camera apps won't focus either. I have to pull the battery and reboot and it *might* work then, and if it does it'll only work the first time I open the camera. Front cameras work fine and the focus on the back camera when it works is excellent. Has anybody else run into this or know if it's worth messing with or if I should just exchange it?
Also for clarification I was running the stock rom (rooted) but with very little frozen. Switched to black hole yesterday (triple wipe) which has been lightning fast so far but having the same issue.
Thanks!
Same
Got it last week and Ive been having the same problem. I dont have many apps but I do let my battery drain due to laziness. Thats the only bad thing I do. I'm thinking of exchanging it because ive also messed with all the settings in the manual camera and nothing. Its set to a very close 1 inch distance to focus well. Front camera works marvelous.

Yeah close focus is exactly the problem. I can take passable pictures of stuff right in front of me by physically moving the phone closer and further until it's in focus but that's useless. I'm going to go by the T-Mobile store this evening or tomorrow and see what they say.
Hey guys, im having a issue with the front camera. everytime i took a selfie, the camera waits about 2-3 sec and then take the photo. i had a s7 edge before and didnt have this problem. anyone knows how to fix this? its annoiyng...
me too i have lag
Disable flash and try again.
I think its caused by latest firmware update.
I'm on ARI6. I have no shutter lag unless it's trying to focus first. It's instant. As one person said, turn off the flash. That caused a "lag" but the screen turned white with a yellow lightning bolt. Thise the only pauses I've seen when using the front facing camera.
