Hi all, I got a s9+ Exynos like 2 days a go,I have a question, does anyone else have rear camera issue on 3rd party apps like WhatsApp or Instagram? When taking pictures with flashlight on? it does not take pictures with the flashlight. In Auto mode works fine but when you do flashlight on is like the flash goes first dan the picture shot, I am not sure if it is my device or apps are not fully compatible yet.
Some feedback would be nice,
Thank you!

Ok, I think I might have figured out under what conditions the camera is freezing.
When the camera is started in portrait mode, the first shot will freeze, at least on my camera. That means when you use the camera icon on the unlock screen, it will freeze.
I tried these different scenarios, followed by a reboot each time (not temp-rooted on any of these):
Device portrait, used camera icon to on lockscreen unlock - camera freezes first picture
Device landscape, used camera icon on lockscreen to unlock - 5 quick pictures in a row no problem
Device portrait, used camera button to start camera - camera freezes first picture
Device landscape, used camera button to start camera - 5 quick pictures in a row no problem
Note that even though the lockscreen doesn't have a landscape orientation, the sensor knows the difference and it seems to affect the camera.
I have no idea why the starting orientation would affect the camera, but being careful to put your phone sideways before starting it up seems to prevent the freezing.
Anyone else with freezing camera issues want to give this a shot and report back?
I too had the camera freeze problem, formatted the card and issue went away. Not sure if this will help you or not.

I also have a random freeze in the camera, maybe once every few days.
I tried the steps as described above and the camera opened and shot good pictures every time....
Sorry i couldnt help

Wow. I'm having this issue too. It's freezing pretty often over here.
Is this a software issue or a hardware issue? I'm willing to exchange it (again) if it's the latter.
are there any updates to the camera issue? mine does it if i dont hold it the right way or mess with the 2d/3d switch....sucks....cmon htc release an update fix for this
Hello everybody
I found exposure slider in camera setting has no effect on viewfinder and also on resulted media . Weather was still camera or video.
Any one confirm this or else?

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.
Has anyone gotten this to work? Whenever I take a picture, it ends up being black. Google Camera and Camera FV-5 both are slow to fire, usually a few seconds compared to the stock camera. Has anyone see this or know a workaround?
Yep, I have the exact same problem. I suspect it is because there is 2 rear cameras instead of one. However, you can use the front camera and lens blur will work, although it is not very practical...
If only we could have the source code of google camera...

I really want this lens blue too.
I can't figure it out but sometimes it does work.. mostly not. About 1 out of 5 photos makes it, the rest are black. I can't figure out why some work and some don't..
Haven't hit the issue?using Camera nx though (basically ported Google camera for 6p and 5x on 7.0)
Hi everybody,
I was looking to buy a gimbal for my phone, and to choose which one to buy I tested some camera apps that can be controlled by the gimbal (DJI and Zhiyun official apps, and Filmic).
I sadly noticed that although the LG Camera allows me to correctly focus from macro to infinite, on all these third party apps I can focus from macro to about a couple of meters far, not more.
Does anyone have the same bug? I'm running stock Oreo firmware with MK2000 kernel (necessary choiche, as Magisk breaks the flashlight when using the stock kernel).
I attach here my /system/vendor/etc/camera/camera_config.xml file, as it seems that playing with the TotalFocusDistance and MinFocusDistance values changes the behaviour of the manual focus wheel in the apps, but I still didn't find how to focus to the infinite.
Maybe I edited that file and I forgot about it?:silly:
EDIT: the problem only occours with manual focus. Autofocusing works great.
Does anyone is experiencing camera slowness? Whenever I click a photo the camera lags for a second or two and no button works during that time. I've tried the gcam mod and it works fine, but the stock camera looks way better.
I'm using GCAM since the first day I bought this phone, stock mi camera is horrible. But yes, when I used stock cam app, I experienced those lags.
