After taking a picture, problem - Nexus S General

does anyone have the problem after taking a picture where you go to view the pic you just took and it just goes to a black screen, no buttons work except back.

yea happens to me sometimes. minor annoyance. just wish the phone would stop deleting my photos.

I also have some issue with the camera. I just bought the Nexus S yesterday, and while fiddling with it I noticed that after deleting the last pic on the phone, it wouldnt go back to camera again. It just shows a blackish screen only. I never had that issue with my Nexus One camera. I hope they'll fix this minor annoyance soon.

Camera app occasionally = black screen

Is anyone having problems with the camera app? A few times now I have gone to take a pic and the screen is black like it is in standby mode but I can see the the icons around the screen it is like I have covered the lens with my finger but I have not.
I can confirm this too
Happened a few times, found exiting and restarting got it working again. Not had the issue in the last 2 weeks though.
Yeah it is very strange I find that a close and reopen works. I have to say I hope with the new rom the camera app gets a makeover. I have had it happen about 5 times since I have had the phone and it always been when I have wanted to take a quick photo so a bit annoying.
you don't have to exit the camera, just switch to playback mode and back to camera mode, works for me.
i get this prob all the time
I have had the problem too. Can't say when or why. Just about every third or fourth start of camera.
You can actually take a snap with the screen black and you will get a picture. You never know what the picture will be like though.
Hasn't happened since I've used Jack's v1.05
Happened all the time when I was on the default firmware.
just upgraded to Jacks 1.06 last night so will keep you all updated. I have had it happen on Jacks 1.04
Vodafone rom
Generic UK rom
All have had this problem.

[Q] Camera crashing?

Whenever I open up my camera app it will work once or twice and then crash. Only fixed by a reboot and then like i said it will only work a few times. Has any one else experienced this, or am I just lucky?
My camera has been having issues as well. Mine randomly will only display a black screen and will not do anything. I have read that its a shutter issue but my shutter is not stuck. Others have said that the geotagging causes this "black screen" issue and turning it off and rebooting will fix it but that has no effect either. factory resets, data wipes, etc does nothing to fix this. This has been going on randomly for a few months now so I am stummped. Verizon told me that update they pushed a few months ago would fix it but apparently that was useless info too. Anyone have any other options or possible fixes???
Same issue here

Hopefully Verizon and moto will do what they normally do and get a list of all the bugs, then push out an update for them. It's starting to irritate me.
My camera app hasn't crashed any, but I do randomly get blank photos since upgrading. Noticed a couple of plain black ones in my gallery last night that weren't blank in the camera review...

Not sure what's going on

I'm not sure what's going on but my Nexus 7 is having some slight issues for some reason. My device came perfect I got it from J&R C60K batch, no flaws or anything. But since yesterday, my device has been force closing with some apps and it does this weird thing where I will get a black screen and see like the homescreen glimpse (I don't know how to explain). But what's more strange is that my camera won't connect anymore (face recognition is a blank square) as it says can't connect to hardware. Not sure what I should do. Oh and when I'm in the the camera launcher app its just a black screen and only shows the one of the soft keys( the last one not sure what its called but it shows you the windows of the open apps).
Have you tried rebooting device to see if it clears things up KR brings camera back? Haveyou downloaded tTHST nexus front camera app? You can test cam in there. If it works through there, then it's a software glitch not causing facelock to work right. Try a factory reset. All of what you describes sound like software issue. You could also reinstall nexus 7 factory img/rom. Do that as a last resort. No root or anything needed for restoring stock img, I believe.
Yup I did a factory reset and everything is back to normal. Not sure what it was but it sure did give me a scare!

[Q] camera stuck and then reboots

Hi all, currently I'm using the nexus 4 and for the past few days I've been taking lots of pics and I encountered this problem so wanna ask if anyone faced this problem or it's only me. So this is what happened.
I was taking photo of the subject vertically and tapped to focus, after that I noticed something and tilted the phone horizontally immediately and the camera just froze and the phone rebooted.
Please comment guys!
I had this issue.
You can either RMA the device or keep using the camera to determine if the situation gets worse or not. I don't know if it's hardware or software related.
I requested an RMA for my device, if you're wondering. I've taken less photos, but I also don't get the shutter being stuck anymore.

[Q] Does anyone experience this issue on galaxy s4's camera?

I have used my galaxy s4 normally for 10 days until today its camera appears an issue. This afternoon, when i took picture, my camera's part at the back suddenly vibrate (not notification's vibrate for message, call etc..) and the screen (in camera mode) became wavy. It appears for 3-5 seconds then it became normal and i coule take photos again. However, it still happened for 5 more times. So i dont know whether it is because of hardware problem or software problem. is there anyone experience this problem please help answer me because nobody at my place experience this problem. Sorry for my bad English !
Never heard of such a thing before. Maybe it's your camera shutter playing up and constantly opening and closing, causing the vibration and wavy screen.

It could be a software or hardware issue, It never happened to me(never will) so cant be sure.I suggest you take it back where you bought it from for a fix.

yeah i also think it that way, it should be software problem cause camera shutter constantly opening and closing, hope that it is not hardware problem because it happens normally till now

I brought it back to Samsung service here and they have never heard of this issue before.
Mine also vibrates but usually when its focusing from far away to extreme close up. It must be the focus mechanism.

when yours vibrate, does the phone's screen become wavy? and how long does it take for the vibration?
I have this same problem only on my Galaxy S2 (sprint Epic Touch) The phone will start making a buzzing sound and the screen will go wavy. If I tap on the screen to ask it to focus the buzz stops. However intermittently, even though I do not see the wavy screen or hear the buzzing I go back and look at the pictures I took and I see a couple of them with wavy images.
I have a maintenance contract on my phone so I had it replaced by spring and have the same problem on the replacement phone.
I am disheartened to find the problem still exists on the S4. I like Samsung but I have just had too many issues with the phone, (data shutting off, not receiving texts etc. and have to reboot phone to recover, the phone restarting itself ....) I was hoping they cleared things up in the later models.

so did they say it was because of hardware or software issue?
This happened to me twice or may be 3 times since I purchased S4 i9500 in April.
Phone vibrates and screen become wavy for a second or two. That's it.
It's not regular and I was not able to produce it later, so I didn't gave it much thought.
It could be software because this only happens when I close camera.
