Cam problem - HD2 General

I have searched but i cant find anything so sorry if i missed it.
my cam has developed a bug where it goes white screen b4 it takes pic ... this happened b4 and i hardreset and it fixed.
but now pics are also pixelated (attached pic not best to use but others are peoples faces)
any fix or do i have to hardreset

no one else have this issue ever?

This error keeps happening
Ok .. so since i originally posted this this error has happened about 3 times.
randomly out of the blue when i click on the cam i get the screen saying its found a storage card do i want to use it, then when i take a picture i get the white screen while its taken the picture and the picture is pixelated.
i look in the settings and it appears all the settings are changed to lowest res , no sounds , no review time , not wide screen etc etc .
if i manually put the settings back the pictures for the most part work fine (apart from the white screen so u can see what its focusing on b4 the pic is taken)
only solution i have found is hard reset.
i find it hard to believe it is just me and since a hardreset fixes it i dont think its hardware. any ideas on what is causing it and how to fix without reset as its just happened again

Camera Doesnt Load (tried upgrading the rom)

For some reason my camera wont load. It goes to open the camera, does that funky thing with the backlight and then goes black. No picture, no controls.
It freezes and the only way to get it back is to soft reset it.
Ive tried a hard reset, same thing, tried updating the rom and its still the same.
Is there any hope for my poor little mda, just paid out for a brand new cover too
after some playing its loaded the controls. Still dont get any view from the camera.
Ive taken it apart and checked the ribbon cable is fitted properly and it is.
Somebody please help
camera has now fixed itself. For how long i dont know, very very strange!

Touch Cruise camera and view problems

I installed the WWE rom from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431738
Now when I enter camera mode, all I see is black. Once I take a picture, in the preview, it'll actually show what it took a picture of. So it works, but I can't see what I'm taking a picture of.
Any ideas?
Also, once its saved and I go to it to view it, it gives me that 'no application associated' error, but when I go programs and run the view manually, it works fine.
How do I re-associate it?
another problem
another problem that im having is that it will ask me for the pin when I turn on the phone but it will disappear and not come back
Well, fixed the camera one; didn't need to install the camera patch. Check qualities and looks like already patched.
Still stuck on the other two.
Can can't figure out how to get the music tab up now. Used to work, now it isn't working. Hm...
That's not typical behavior. Try downloading another copy of the ROM update and reflashing. Make sure there are no SD cards in your phone while flashing. For safe measure do a hard reset right after you flash. Let us know if you still have the problem after that.

Nope. Still black screen after soft reset.
Taking pictures is no problem and even the preview of the taken picture shows i 3 sec, and then black screen again.
I re-installed the ROM and everything worked fine again.
Installed the photo fix HTC released the camera was bugged again, so uninstalled that and it worked. So that solved that.
the picture viewer would stuff up when I installed the 3D drivers. I want to keep these, so how do I associate the picture viewer to the images I take?
Also, I can't get the music tab up. Was it excluded in this ROM?

HTC Polaris 200 (Orbit 2) camera not working

Hello all,
I've been reading this forum for a while but only now decided to ask for help.
I am one of those unfortunate htc users who got the "camera problem".
I've bought my Oribit2 of ebay and first it was working fine with all the functions etc. Then i started upgrading it, flashed hardspl, new ROMs, radios... at some point camera stopped working. Not sure exactly when, cause i have tried several different ROMs and radios before even noticing that something was wrong. At that point i had c_shekhar's ROM installed.
I started reading more on the problem and tried to flash original ROM/radio or other ROMS and radios but nothing helped. Camera was still not working with error "Unable to capture photo. Unable to get frame data from camera device." or something like that and VERY slow response in camera.exe.
I've seen same problem in many different threads on different forums, mostly it's been an issue with incompatible Radios and was fixed by reflashing but also, in many cases ppl had the same as i do - camera not working and flashing doesn't help.
So, some solutions appeared:
- taking out battery for 15 mins, fixed camera for some ppl.
- installing Nadavi camera fix and/or uninstalling afterwards
- deleting all camera.* files from windows and installing Nadavi camera etc...
Well, i've tried them all. Nothing worked. The trick with taking out battery partially worked once: i've flashed original O2 WM 6.0 and took out battery for about 30-40 mins. After putting it back - voila camera working as it should be, no lag, no error. I'm happy! NOT.
Of course i immediately decided to flash some better ROM cause original is crap. After flashing - camera dead again and this time even taking out batter for more then an hour didn't do anything.
Trying trick with nadavi camera fix proved to be partially working or at least a good step in right direction:
lag went away, i could operate the camera program, switch from back to front camera(which was working fine btw) and even capture videos...
well... kind of. In preview the image is all fuzzy, just coloured line and noise, impossible to see the image, only some parts of it.
But it was clear that somehow, when using back camera, the image was a mix of a rear and front cameras! I mean i can't see clear picture,
but if i move my hand near one of the cameras i see changes in image(it's still mostly coloured noise).
All this is weird isn't it?
After evaluating everything, it makes me think that it's not a hardware problem, but really a configuration problem.
Looks like there is small flash memory in camera device, or some another way to keep camera initialization and it does not depends on radio or ROM.
Now, seeing that some ppl were able to fix the problem while installing original rom, or installing Nadavi camera fix or both, makes me think that under some
specific conditions these internal camera settings can be reinitialized.
While browsing net, looking for answer, i have found this :
Some of us had problems with Htc devices recognizing the on board camera after installing new ROM's.
It has been my technical opinion and observance that this problem can accrue when you manually put the devices into bootloader mode and don't press the camera and power buttons together along with the reset button correctly.
Once this damage is done you will have to reinstall the ROM radio files via uploading a manufacturer ROM to your device that has the radio ROM packaged along with it e.g. "HTC sprint beta ROM".
To avoid this I suggest always letting your PC force your device into bootloader mode. Because even the best of us might not mash the keys just right causing your ppc to forget all of it's configured camera associations.

Well, this guy seems to agree with me that it's camera settings problem and there must be the way to fix this.
Well, again, i have tried installing original ROM and radio again, with no luck(even tried different combinations of nadavi fix , taking out battery etc...)
So, now, i believe, what we need is someone who knows a great deal about programming mobile devices and drivers for camera in particular to try and
produce some kind of a software that can reinitialize these camera settings(this is if this theory is correct).
Since my phone was bought off ebay, i have no guarantee and cannot send it back for repairs.
Does anyone know the right person who can do this? Or maybe some other solution to fix the camera?
I'm in the same situation. I was using udk 4 or possibly 5. One day I noticed the camera didn't work. I still had an icon for in under programs and the default button turned it on. Since then I have tried newer roms and several radio roms. I have no icon for camera under programs and the camera button on the phone just loads the camera album.
Can anybody help us?
Many Thanks
Dan
The same thing happen to me as for you guys.
The only thing helped as I tried new radio roms and still was not working.
So I tried radio Murata - 1.58.21.23. And now camera works perfectly again!!
You can search here and you will find this radio on this forum.
cheers
Andrew
I have tried that radio.
the same story. radio is murata
will try to go this hell route - nadavi camera and stuff
Ive been on this all day now. Nothing I have tried has made it work. I'm on the original rom from o2 now and it's going back to the shop tomorrow.
Can they tell if i've put 3rd party roms on the phone? If so is there anything I can do to "re lock" it?
Cheers
Dan

i have a camera problem too...what is the answer?
Same problem for me, Camera not working any more
I was using M-Amine 2 ROM and camera started malfunctioning, (the first days was alleatory, and I arrived to fix it restarting camera or taking pictures two or three times, until finally the problem becomes definitif...)
I tested other roms (c_shekar, 3VLIT, Nadavi fix, and other radios...even original ROM....come back to c_shekar....with some small changes, but finally retour the same problem "unable to capture frame...".
Today I have reinstaled again Original latest French ROM, at the begining camera doesn´t worked, but suddenly It has come back again. Up to now still working after many resets and tests. I will keep you informed, I plan to come back to c_shekar, after some days of testing with original ROM.
it can be fixed with original rom
find my other post how to get ROM's with needed language.

I have an O2 Orbit 2 as well.
I recently noticed that my camera isn't working anymore.
About 1 month ago I installed Core Player 1.2.4 and since then I had a lot of issues with the card. Folders starting disappearing, corrupted SD etc. Sometimes only some recent folders disappear.
However, most recently I discovered that the camera does not work anymore. Pressing the snapshot button doesn't start the camera. While the buttons do light up when the camera button is pressed (suggesting a software issue) the camera does not start. If I go into the Programs folder and start Camera, it starts. But when I press the camera button to take a picture, it goes upto the point that it makes the focus sound, the two framing aids (that look like a split square) turn green but that's it. No photo is taken. Camera however seem to work, everything looks ok through the camera but it just doesn't take photos/movies anymore.
I haven't installed/upgraded anything, I have the original rom.
I have tried to take out the battery for 30+ mins but the same issue happens.
It definitely looks like a software issue, either by a software that corrupted files (I suspect Core Player) and/or flash corruption issue (however I haven't got any software to tinker with the flash and haven't tried boot mode or whatever, just normal on/off).
Small update: I just noticed that altering the camera settings to "Half press" instead the "Full press" makes the camera take pictures.
However, returning again to "Full press" the camera doesn't take pictures again.
So a temporary fix is to set to "Half press" but even so, the camera application does not start when I press the camera button.
Can anyone please help?
hi, I have an old Polaris and 3 days ago upgrading from WM 6 to WM 6.1, causing the both cameras (front and back) to not respond although the screen still shows the numbers and stuff on touch screen that shows cameras are working fine, BUT pointing both cameras anywhere doesn't change the black view that's been displayed since the camera is turned on. weird. but when pressing the camera button, the picture taken is properly shown. I tried both camera (front and back), both produces normal photograph, but why the black screen?!
on top of that after the upgrade, touch screen has turn rigid that it's very hard to type. I have to play with the angle of touching the pen to the screen or else, the screen will just get stuck with whatever it was doing before.
any solution? please advise thanks.
Camera working but no Picture Monitor Screen
This may help you Bulukaki
I have a HTC P3650 allready with the WM6.1 upgrade
I downloaded today the factory update for picture quality, "Hot fix for Touch Cruise photo quality issue" from the HTC download site
After this upgrade , I was no longer able to monitor the picture of the camera on the screen. Just a black screen but with all the camera functions.
The camera was still able to take a picture, the picture showed up only after exposure on the screen. Similar to BULUKAKI`s problem
So my picture quality was not that bad prior to the photo quality upgrade and I removed the update from settings/system/remove programs and did a soft reset and the camera was again functioning as it should. Having said that, you may check wether or not the "Hot fix for Touch Cruise photo quality issue" was allready installed prior to your WM6.1 upgrade.
Maybe simply uninstall "Hot fix for Touch Cruise photo quality issue" will do the trick
Hope this helps

Help with broken camera

Hi!, I have been having problems with my phone camera for a whyle (2 years aprox). Since I started using lolipop and marshmallow roms the camera hasn't been working fine. Actually it doesn't even work. I would post some images but this is my first post and XDA doesn't let me, so i will describe it the best I can. When I open the camera app, all I see is white, after a while some pink dots start to appear. This dots multiply all over the screen and thats all I get. If I zoom in this pink dots gets bigger, and look like pixels, like it's some sort of digital filter, and not what the camera is capturing. If I wait long enough, and point the camera into a light, the image gets clearer and it starts to show something. I am now using Dirty Unicorns 10.6. It's a D806 model, but inside the phone, it says it's a D805. I have always used D802 roms.
It looks like is a hardware issue, but everytime I go back to KK stock, this problem stops and the camera works just fine, then when I flash a custom rom after some weeks, this problem starts again. Also I have searched a lot and it seems like no one has this problem. If i try to film a video, the app crashes and it saw "it couldn't conect to the camera" but in the normal mode if I touch the screen, I can see the lens moving, like it's adjusting it's focus
Do you have any idea of what could it be?. I dont know if this is important but I have bricked my phone several times, to the point where one time even the download mode was broken, and when I pluged the phone into the computer, windows detected like 60 particions. I fixed this via pushing some files into the phone using ubuntu, and then doing the same thing in windows with a tool I found here in XDA.
Thanks, and sorry if my english is not the best, is not my native language.

After a while I have enter the camera app http://i.imgur.com/orEWP75.png

Galaxy S8 screen/display issue

Hi,
I just got my Galaxy S8, i've noticed some screen issue, especially in dark places or at night. The screen is showing weird color on the top. Check the pictures attached and let me know what do you think.
To check if you have the same issue with your phone, you need to increase the brightness to the max, turn of auto adjust brightness, and check your phone in a dark place
Erm
Just do a screen print and attach it.
takes few seconds on mobile to do.
dial *#0*# and do color tests, if it fails I would return it.
How can i show u the picture?
Hi

Same issue as the pic ? and can you tell me the source of the manufacture?
I had these for like 2 seconds when I just started setting up my phone, then I never saw it again.
So it might be a software image processing glitch.
Tried a factory reset / changing the color mode?
