is it possible you accidentally changed some camera settings or camera mode?
Try going to the camera settings menu (bottom left corner of the camera app), scroll that menu all the way out, and pick "reset". This will reset your camera to factory settings. See if the problem still persists.
Or it could be too dark, and auto mode cannot focus. you need to engage night mode. but first try setting reset above.

My guess would be you've switched the macro function on at some point (either deliberately or accidentally) and then forgotten to switch back to auto-focus (I had the same problem with mine until I realised what it was!).
Go to Settings down in the bottom left of the camera screen, then select 'Focus Mode' and change back to 'Auto focus'.
I didnt turn anything on or off, i flashes the firmware to ke7. but it stopped working before i flashed. also i have reset the cam settings tons of times, nothing seems to work. it goes out of focus right after it starts focusing, and then the red bare thing comes up
It is obviously software issues, because its gets perfectly focussed before it goes blurry again
Hmm is it the macro mode issue that I read about?
Never heard anything like what you are describing, sorry.
Please do update this thread if you figure out the issue.
re-flash or update the camera's firmware
+1 to this problem. It's frustating.
I got the same problem. I just give the phone a tap on the back and it starts working again. Its so weird... i'm thinking my camera autofocus is dodgy/stuck
Try Settings >Applications >Manage Aplications > All > Camera > clear DATA
Or are you sure there is no dust on the Lens????? Trying wiping it clean
If both the above Dont work ... I dont you and you dont know me
bump..
have the same issue...
no focus at all in video mode.
i reset the camera setting a few times, delete all data from the camera app, still no luck.
my cam FW is :
cam fw ver : scef02
phone fw ver : tbec28
please advise as this is getting really frustrating...
many thanks.
Samsung I9100 camera focus problem
Hi,
I have the same issue as described above. Perhaps it occured just as I updated to Android version 2.3.3, not sure but could be.
Anyone found a solution to this problem?
auto focus doesn't work correctly out of the box
Hello,
Just got a brand new GSII from Sprint; awesome!! AutoFocus though is CRAZY and possessed!! it will be in focus then go out of focus... non-stop... did this from day one; Running 2.3.4 does not seem to do this with the still camera.
I'm having the same problem. I tried switching roms, going back to stock, nothing helped. Anyone having a solution? It is a software issue, because 3 days ago mine was working for like 5 min..
bump.bump.bump

I had the same problem but disappeared cleaning the lens from the fingerprints and grease
I finally rooted and the flashed Galnet Miui, but then the quality of photos dropped. So I flashed another ROM, same results. So now i restored backup of my original ROM and it got better, but still nowhere near the quality of pre-root.
So I messed up camera for nothing =/
I have the same problem, with one small difference, i dropped the phone in the toilet. Got it dry, changed the camera and now I have this focus problem. In camera mod, if I touch the screen the camera will focus, but it doesn't focus from the moment I start the Camera app. So since the camera don't auto-focus by itself when I go into video mod the image is all blurry.

Hi, I have installed the ICS rom released in the Xperia P dev section, the central european version. I have installed a clean version in that the phone was wiped whilst flashing. When in camera mode, the pictures taken are perfect, however when in camcorder mode, if I pan the camera to the right, a green line appears on the left of the video. If I pan the camera to the left, there is no such light.
The issue is only visible when viewing the video back, not when recording. Has anyone else experienced this issue ? any advice ?

Hi,
I have an Xperia Ray, currently running CM10 (FXP152).
The main camera isn't working - it just shows a black screen and takes black pictures, the camera interface seems to work okay (touch to focus prompts, etc) and the front cam works fine.
I've tried going back to stock, using both SEUS and wotan, but the camera remains dark.
Any ideas? I'm thinking it must be a hardware failure....

If it's the same on two ROMs then I would suspect it's HW too.
I have the exact same problem. My camera was perfect till yesterday, n suddenly a black screen wen turning on the camera, the icon are still visible on the screen but black in the background. The front camera seems to show a very blurred picture wen I switched to the front camera.

BSG released a final version of GCAM so probably we can expect a working mod with more features in coming weeks especially from Arnov, his releases not came recently

I don't have the greenish tint in front cam when I freshly install the gcam. But right after if I force close it and again open , green tint starts coming.
So try installing it again and don't force close it.
facing the same problem. green tinted from the front camera.
