Front camera - Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone had the issue of the front camera not taking a picture no matter what camera program you use. When I open camera programs, I can see a picture, but when I click the icon (in any of the programs) the apps just sort of freeze. When I do it in the stock camera app, all the icons on the left dissapper and it only sits there. No pictures are ever taken.
This is a replacement tablet that I got from Sony a week ago that I rooted. I did not try the camera before.

Front facing camera apps?

Is there an app for the atrix that lets you use the front facing camera specifically just for a mirror...also I kno this would drain battery but is the a app that lets the front facing camera act as a live wallpaper?

Well I mean you could just open up your camera app, hit switch, then look at yourself
not wise to keep a CMOS sensor on so long especially with AGC (auto gain control), you will get hot pixels in an hour and overheat the sensor.

There's also no zoom with the FFC, so no "detail" work with the "mirror".

Default Camera app or other one?

Curious as to who is usijng the default Camera app on the Note, and who is using other apps from the Market (like Camera 360 or Vignette, etc).
Pictures on my note come out well, but so sloow writing & I never seem to know if it snapped a picture or not.
Ideally, I'd like an app where you click click & hold on the screen (it focuses) and when you let go it takes the picture. Very useful with kids so you can let go when they are looking the right way!
Any suggestions?
The stock camera app does the hold/release thing that you want. The picture snaps immediately when you release, the lag you see is just the picture saving. It is a pretty instantaneous picture though.

Volume Button
Are there any apps that utilize the Volume button as a Snap button, I'm using the Camera ICS+ app that can do it, but the quality doesnt seem as good as the stock app. Any suggestions?

I have the exact same problem, from both front and back cameras. Same in third party camera apps, exposure controls simply do not function as expected, no change at all. HDR picture mode seems to work fine though.
Not a serious enough problem for me to RMA, but it is a small dent in the glory of the S3 for sure..

I also had this issue and was deeply disappointed, because my optimus 2x made much better shots in low light because of the exposure compensation.
I found the solution today: I used the hidden camera menu *#34971539# and discovered that my camera was ZDFE02 and the phone firmware was ZDFE03. If your phone to cam button is greyed out, do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32721917
After copying the file to internal SD, restart, then update and restart. You get new cam firmware and now the exposure works.

can we get a Cyanogenmod camera? or something els?

stock camera autofocus is anoying need to press on screen.
i like the cyanogenmod camera, fast and good, so can any one sugest me a good camera replacer, looked on market but could find what i want, (have camera jb+) still no auto focus when i pres the buton to take foto...
any port of cm camera or aosp. that works?
it isn't that easy, the camera app on any android device is bound to hardware drivers and libs and framework things. but it's possible though like this one from Razr M, i don't know if it has the option you look for, try it though (just normal apk intall) http://www43.zippyshare.com/v/32432212/file.html
Noo still not. Na its a good camera.
But the auto focus is so bad on this phone. On stock camera when you pres the shot buton is does t even focus.... need to pres on screen. I loved the cm7 camera app. Pres 2sec on shot buton and it auto focus
Try "camera ics" from play store. Its supposed to be clone of stock ics camera. It focuses when you press shutter. It also takes photos while recording video so you won't lose that functionality. The photos and videos look much sharper with this app and the photos taken while taking video actually look good and sharp. Stock lg camera pics and videos look like it was taken by a vga camera if you aren't too careful

Question Camera App Grey Out

Hi, I recently bought a tripod and tried to use my pixel 6 with an external shutter. However I noticed that the camera app became greyed out after I took a photo with the external shutter.
After I force close and reopen the camera app the screen became normal again. When I take a photo with the 'normal' button in the camera app everything is fine, so I think the grey screen only happens when photos are snapped with the external shutter.
The whole screen became white washed in a sense, may I know what might be causing this issue and how do I fix it? Thanks!
