camera crash when taking movie - LG G5 Questions & Answers

Tried both stock 20A and fulmic 20c 2.0. When taking HD and FHD movie using either rear lens, the camera app will freeze and have to force quit. I track it down to the anti shake mode. So either "Steady+HD" or "Steady+FHD" will crash, using OIS is fine. FHD60 and UHD in either antishake mode are fine though.
Anybody have the same problem or try to reproduce? maybe I have hardware problem because I search and didn't find anything. I'm on T-mobile but i think the camera app should be same across all models...Thx

When does the freezing occur?
After stopping the record or while you are recording? Or when you press the record button?
Sent from my sh!tty LG-H860 that is beyond crap

It froze when I press record. I then has to force quit the camera and when reopen no video is taken. I will see if i can get some logcat going....
Seems like nobody else has this problem? which is puzzling because it seems like a software issue.

Have you tried the hidden menu?
Test your camera there
*#546368#*850#
850 is your model number. If you have a 830 change this to 830

Oh wow thanks for this post. Mine started crashing exactly the same way in the last week. I ran into your post and sure enough, switching to OIS "fixed" the problem.

Camera very slow

Hello, I am really starting to find it annoying how slow the camera is to open, I am not sure whether it is a problem with just me or whether it is a problem with the Sony software.
However, when I open the camera, it sticks on a black screen for a good 4 seconds before actually showing the camera, then when moving the camera around it is really laggy and blurry - with other phones such as any HTC the camera seems really smooth when moving it around.
Does anyone else experience this problem? And does anyone know a fix for it?
I was wondering whether downloading Vignette or something might help?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: Just tried the Vignette demo and it seems it does not lag, however it does not have a video option and seems a bit over complicated for my simple needs, anyone know any other good camera programs on that market?
I found the camera to be slow as well. I did a lot of tweaking on my phone (root, uninstall timescape, bloatware, enabled JIT) and now the camera and the phone in general is faster.
yes!!! camera is very laggy .... plus my camera button shuts down the camera.apk ....now i can only get a picture using "on screen" clicking option....
[Q]Now why have a camera LED and it does nothing for the camera?...so silly I find
I have done everything rbenz suggested apart from remove TimeScape as I am worried this will conflict when using other apps.
Does anyone know of a decent 3rd party camera application please?
Surely someone has found a decent app, please let me know if you have
me too....when you move the camera while video recording it lags so much and this lag is also seen during playback of the same video,also opening takes years

[Q] Camera video recording hanging

Hi guys.
i've had my prime for awhile now, used it's video recording before, but today it seems to be having some problems.
1. Video Recording in Full HD 1080p for 1 min, once i click on the stop, it hangs there for quite awhile, and ultimately pops up the message box "camera app has hanged" , even if i click wait, the camera seems to hang indefinitely and the only way for me to close it is to force reboot.
2. If i record at 20sec or 40sec, it doesn't have a problem. though it hangs around (i think it's converting the videos)
anyone else have this problem? also anyone knows of any alternative camera app other then the stock one?
Mine did the same thing the other night and I had to force close it. When I tried to relaunch the application it said it could not connect to the camera device. I had to do a full shutdown and reboot. I think there are too many bugs either in the OS, the application or the tablet. If you find a better camera app let me know please.
Glad to hear i'm not the only one
There's a few more things i noticed though. This only happened after the recent update. So i'm guessing it's a software problem.
2nd thing is, i'm wondering if it is necessary to actually do a conversion after the video recording. My HD2 phone can record videos without any hanging after i click on the stop button.
Not much hanging or crashes here but I do experience freezes when zooming while recording video. Wondered if this was app or hardware...
hmm i tried on a friend's Transformer (not prime)
Their video recording is seemless.. the moment i click the stop recording button. the recording stops instantly and no hanging or anything..
i'm wondering if it has anything to do with our multiple updates..
I do remember multiple reports of the Prime's very poor disk performance. It scored very low on multiple benchmarks.
Update on this. i sent my Prime to ASus service center. Reported this pproblem + another dock problem. Will update once i get my prime back
Update on this. I just got my prime back. They did a excellent job. Completely fixed now. Video recording is fluid. Even recording for 20sec / 40 sec / 1 min, it stops immediately. I guess just a re-fresh would have solved the problem but since i had another dock problem which they'll need to fix, they fixed this at the same time.

Snapchat Lens lag on Tribute HD

As the title says, I've got some really bad lag when using the Lenses in Snapchat. The camera works fine when there is no lens on screen, but as soon as one starts tracking my face it turns into a slideshow. It even plays back this way when I view a recorded snap. The filters in Facebook Messenger work fine without lag. Does any other Tribute HD users have this problem? I've tried hard resetting and also reinstalling Snapchat but nothing helps. Surely the phone isn't under powered enough to be causing this is it? Even i check Snapchats memory usage it's never used more than 350mb, and I've always got at least 800mb of ram free when starting Snapchat.
No one? I've emailed Snapchat about this issue but have yet to hear anything back from them. I've even installed an older version to see if that changed anything but it didn't help.

Oreo - strange problems with sound and videos

Hi, after upgrade to Oreo I have strange problems with sound and videos. Don't know for what reson the sound stops suddenly and the video works frame by frame. It does not matter if it's video from gallery or YT or music from spootify or built-in player. After reboot everything is ok but no one knows when it will happen again.
EDIT: ok I know when this start to happend. After using of @cstark27 google phone app ;/ Anyone can confirm that?
look for an apps that eats CPU or has memory leaks.
however you might put it... your installed apps are to blame
I can confirm that problem. It also happens with other gcam mods. I guess for now using the stock camera app seems to be the only solution :/
EDIT: It only seems to happen when using HDR or HDR+. During the HDR post processing (which is inidicated through that little loading animation in the gallery app) music suddenly stops playing.
EDIT 2: I think i found a solution. As odd as it may sound, but enabling camera.raisr in the developer settings stops the camera from breaking music and video playback.

Mhmm very strange. I did reinstall the app tough. Maybe the combination of reinstalling, enabling camera.raisr and clearing the apps cache afterwards fixed it
Unfortunetly still the same...Have no idea whay is wrong.
Does enabling the camera.use_photos option on both apps, and force closing/rebooting solve it?
So it seems that to fix the issue, one need to do this in that order :
• Clear Data from both apps
• Reboot (might not be needed but sound safer)
• Go back under Developper settings of both apps and uncheck camera.raisr and check camera.use_photos
Seems to be stable after this, even after subsequent phone reboots
Will add this to this forum sticky
Thanks cstark ! Will keep you posted if the reboots come back.

video camera delay after 9.0 update

Hey guys so i just updated the mi 8 lite to pie 9.0. I just noticed that there's a 10 second delay in the video camera. Photo mode works perfectly. I even tried clearing the data and cache and still the same. I downloaded open camera and that works fine. Anyone having this problem?
I have the same problem too

Did you figure it out yet? It's driving me crazy lol
So changing the save location from the SD card to internal seems to fix the problem if anyone is having delays with the video recording. Hope they make a fix for this as this only occurred after the pie update
I have a same/similar problem..
after update take photo as usually but the photo appear after a few seconds to the gallery, I have the problem only weith styock camera, if i use Open camera app is fine.
