[HELP!] Camera not working - Sony Xperia M4 Aqua

So, when I had LP on my m4 aqua, the rear camera was working fine, and the front too, but when I opet front camera on Snapchat, it just freezes. So, today I upgraded my phone to marshmallow, and now, whenever I opet camera app, and change to the front camera, it just stops working, and says like ''error, check if any other apps are using the camera'', but no other apps are using it.
I would appreciate if someone could help me. Thanks.

Already did, but no help. Front camera still freezes and then error comes up saying the camera may be in use of other application. But rear camera works like a charm. Even the focus is sooooo muuuch better on MM now.

Xperia S Camera problems

Hi to all!
I'm having camera issues especially when making night pictures. The pics are very blurry and dark. And it seems like auto focus is not working.
You can see some examples on the site below, seems I'm not the only one having it:
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/34345
I'm on .73 FW.
Will flashing a new rom solve my problem (because i think it's sofware related).
Please share your opinion.
Thanks!!
Try a third party app with good camera drivers.

When in low light the AF will be slower and hesitating. This is not unique to Xperia S. Any digital camera using AF(either phase detection or contrast detection) are like this.
This is also why on most digital cameras there is a "AF assist lamp" to help the low-light AF situations.
Try turn the video recording light on and make it the "AF assist lamp".
The focusing capability of the built in app is not that good especially in low light. Scratchling is correct. Use a good third party app and you will see your focusing in low light improve.
LGCamera is very good.
FX Camera Zoom, too.
Shutter sound of camera
I have lost my camera shutter sound eversince updated to .73 FW. I even tried re-installed rom via repair mode when connected to PC companion. After re-installed rom, shutter sound still not working. (Shutter sound "on" option was turned on).
Can anybody help?
Guys just tell me one thing
Is it hardware problem??
I m scared
Replaced my xperia s 3 times
God not again!!

Downgrade to 0.63 and re install 0.73, with FlashTools.
try holding the shutter button down like how u will do it with a digital camera for it to focus
The problem only occurs in low light!
In day time the phone camera is working like a charm
No problems during the day!!

Similar issues. Stock camera app is a bit dud.
Really..I find the stock camera awesome the only complaint really is the time it can take to focus sometimes but will give that app mentioned a try

Does anyone know if it's possible to get real night vision on a mobile cam?

Can anyone report that this issue doesn't exist using third party apps? So it is just software related then? (hoping!)

Its an interesting idea, maybe with an IR illuminator, but somebody would probably need to write custom drivers for each ccd.

Probably an IR light and a massive driver hack, assuming that our sensor reads IR levels. Still a crazy hack and will probably be hard to switch back and forth.

My stock camera app is working well.. you can also try google camera
My camera is weird when i take pictures it has green dots?
the stock camera is slow with the flash, google camera is much faster for me..

cyanogen camera is good
i'm using the google camera and its good.. not bad as what i expected...
My stock camera lags problems goes with the stock gallery.. when I preview the pics I've taken the gallery also lags and wont respond..it very annoying especially when I'm out with my girlfriend..
this phone has a good camera even in low light...but the problem is..the apps..i hope someone make our camera smooth:crying:
maybe "XCam LG"?
I have this one installed. It is only for LG stock-based firmware and I'm really satified with it.
Do not install the advanced drivers, it will not work. The "XCam LG - for stock/unrooted G2" works fine on LG Mini, together with the "XCam LG Settings Donation App" (Play Store).

Have you tried the additional settings app ? It is not very expensive and there you can change several parameters. Maybe this could help?

the lg xcam sometimes lags..google cam is very reliable and fast but as what ive observed the stock has better focus

Xcam lg is the better, has more options and stuff, its for the original g2 and works flawlessly in the g2m

CM13 users, which camera app do you use for taking high-quality photos?

While the CM13 included camera app is relatively fast and great for quick-snap photos, I did manage to make some impressive photos while playing around on EMUI camera in Pro mode (before I flashed the phone), looking suprisingly good for such a low tier camera.
Since there's no manual mode in CM13, which camera app would you recommend to purchase/download(if free)?
Also, is the HDR bug guaranteed to occur in every app?
Thanks in advance!
Snap Camera works great!
How do u get SnapCamera on CM? Can you just flash it or..

As far as I'm aware Honor 5x nightlies don't include the Snap camera yet. It ships with the legacy Camera, which takes mediocre pictures and can't do HDR or Panoramas.
Google Camera is available for Panoramas, but the accelerometer/gyroscope is very jittery on the phone, so the stitching doesn't do a good job.
I don't think this issue is gonna be resolved until Camera2 API is ported into our CM nightly.

I do think the same, it's about software, not a specific camera app
I tried putting the ro.camera2.prtabilty.force_api=1 in the default.prop file by splitting boot.img and reflashing boot.IMG, putting manual focus line in build.prop and then flashing the ported emui 4.0 camera with twrp... Still badluck as it says Unfortunately, camera has stopped working
Just use Cm marsh(cm based costom ROM ) comes with snap camera
Update
Now use it on any ROM
Camera App ported

I've found that, no matter what camera app I install, I can't get the same picture quality I used to get on the stock ROM. Is there a reason for this? The drivers, maybe?

I guess is the camera processing is different on stock ROM from custom ROMs

Hello folks, you can check on Guide Discussion Redmi 3, but it goes to Root user, but if you non root user, maybe you will need update your ROM IF your ROM is still on MIUI
same problem here....
position on MUI 8.1.1.0

Question Camera problem

Hello. I have a problem with the camera on my Xperia 1 IV. When I start the camera and switch to the 85-125mm lens, the image freezes after a while. On the other lenses everything is ok. Have any of you had such a problem? Regards
