Camera is all blank..no view

i noticed a problem with the camera app
whenever i open the X1's camera..the first time..there is no view..its all blank screen...then i close it and restart..and then only i have the view.
what is this bug?

bump.............

I think it's just some bug, never thought of making a thread myself though.

This happens to me to. every time I start the camera, the viewfinder is black. I have to close the app and restart it. This happens in both the old and new UK ROM

This has started happening to me since i updated to the newest version of angeluz x1 widescreen mode for touchflo 3d :\.

I had this problem once in a while, with R1A GENERIC UK ROM.
But not every time. Maybe 1 of 5 camera starts.
I've had R2A for a week now and so far so good - no blank starts.

I had the same problem with the R1 ROM, and still have it with official R2 ROM :/.
No biggie though.. I just exit and start it again.

I have this problem, dunno if this helps find the cause, but try to turn on led does nt work.
one time i tried over 5 times until view come on.

Updating the firmware fixed the problem for me.

never had the problem, but it's probably going to happen sooner or later =[

maybe you have heavy program running background?
I had once because of this

[Q] Crashing emulators and games help

ive had my play for a month and a half now on vadafone uk and ive rooted and removed bloatware but emulators and games just go off unexpectedly and with no error message. is ther any "fix" or solution aound this ???????

I also have this problem and with Vodafone- but after only a week of having it. I've noticed it with the pre-loaded games, Bruce Lee, Sims 3, also it's happened with Asphalt 6. There's no message and it just closes unexpectedly after a random amount of time. I've even factory reset it but the problem still exists. Must be rare though because I cannot find anyone with the problem!

update your Xperia Play on the official Site if it's safe for you

Thanks, I'll give it a try- the sony ericsson update via USB cable? I assumed the phone had automatic updates but maybe this will fix it.

Reinstalled the software with it but it didn't work- going to try to get a replacement phone since I haven't had it very long.

Nexus 6p freezing a lot

I enrolled to beta programa like 3 weeks ago and everything was just fine, but yesterday after some apps updated the phone started freezing a lot, all the apps started crashing especially WhatsApp and Instagram, when I unlock the phone it takes like 5 seconds, also a lot of times when I go to the home screen after writing something, the keyboard stays on screen and it doesnt hides, I dont know what is happening, if someone could help me I would thank it a lot.

Don't mean to scare you, but that is exactly what was happening to me right before going into an unrecoverable bootloop. Nothing I tried revived the device, although there have been some that have been able to. I ended up RMA'ing my device as nothing I did brought it back to life. You might be in a different situation but just giving you a heads up.

*Bump*
Stock 7.1.1 and rooted here. I've been on the official 7.1.1 release for our 6P's since early December, and for the past week or so, I've been experiencing freezing as well. I'd be in the middle of typing in Hangouts, streaming music in the car via bluetooth and Spotify, or just waking the phone up from sleep. For the past few days, I've been getting 3-4 freezes per day.
On rare occasions, I've left the phone alone to settle, and it returns to normal, but more times than not, a hard reset is the only 'fix'; until the next freeze.
I reluctantly wiped the phone, unrooted, flashed stock 7.1.1 and re-rooted all via NRT last night. The phone froze again this morning coming off the charger...
Granted, it decided to restore 528mb's worth of WhatsApp history as soon as I unplugged it (why it didn't restore on charger overnight is beyond me though). Will update if it freezes again.
The phone runs butter smooth with zero issues other than these freezing occurrences though. MO, the 6P is the best all-rounded phone currently available, even if it's a year old already.
Appreciate any help or suggestions!!

That's odd try ex kernel and over clock or try HEBF manager on play store

Quick update. Couldn't bear the multiple freezes per day, so I called Google to ask for help. Apparently I've done everything I can on my end (including a factory reset and updating to the latest firmware), so they sent out a replacement 6P to me free of charge. They'll also be covering the courier/shipping costs for my old 6P too. Fantastic customer service. Kudos to them!! I called them Tuesday morning (20th Dec) Australian time, and received my replacement 6P Friday afternoon (23rd Dec). Very quick indeed
Half a day after setting up my replacement 6P, including updating to 7.1.1, I started getting the same symptoms as my old 6P. Freezing, unresponsiveness, etc. Persisted for another day and had enough. I've since done a full wipe and downgraded back to the final 6.0.1 release, and it's been stable as a rock for 3 days now. No freezes, lagginess, nothing.
So I deduce it might actually be a software issue with 7.1.1, and not a hardware problem. It appears a growing number of Pixel and Pixel XL users are also experiencing random freezes on their new phones running 7.1.1 too...
Looks like I'll stick with 6.0.1 until Google makes a formal announcement and something is done about 7.1.1. I've missed Xposed and GravityBox too, so 6.0.1 is all good. Most importantly, it's stable

Had you ever tried booting into safe mode to see if maybe an app was causing the issue? Maybe a compatibility issue between an installed app(s) and 7.1.1

Thanks for the pro tip. I did consider doing that with the replacement 6P, but the only apps that I had installed were the stock Google ones that came with 7.1.1, WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and SwiftKey. I just assumed if such popular apps were the cause, a lot more people would have pinpointed them as the problem?
I did however read a few users claiming SwiftKey to be the culprit prior to RMA'ing my old device, but even after uninstalling that from my old phone, I was still getting the freezing issues.

Stuttering with app drawer

Hello,
I just bought a moto X style 32gb, it works well except one thing : when I close the app drawer, sometimes it gets choppy, more when it comes to the home page at the same time. The weirdest thing is I got the exact same glitch with any third party launcher including nova.
I'm on stock 6.0.1 last update. I tried Factory reset, absolutely no app installed and still got the issue. The only workaround is to unable hw overlay, but then it is transitions which get choppy.
Didn't find any similar thread.
Thanks for helping.

Haven't heard of this... does it do it in safe mode?

Thanks for answering.
Yes it does the same thing un safe mode.
I managed to avoid this laggy animation by setting force GPU rendering and disable hw overlay. With these 2 options set together I got rider of any lag. But I assume it will make battery life suffer a little.
I'm tempted to Root and install some nougat Custom rom since we still don't know when we will exactly get it on OTA, maybe this summer... Which is long.

I've just done the same seems like the phone's bit more fluent. I woudln't bother with this Nougat ROM's as they say battery life is worse. I was thinking about unlocking the phone but my speaker grill is loose like it's hanging on one leg and I'm willing to sent it for on warranty heh. Also I found out that if You sent Your phone on warranty they're gonna changr Your back cover because it's mandatory part - the technician has to order it if he's loging the phone so You have like half refurb if U sent it on some software issue or whatever - they have to open the phone to check for liquids or whatever.

After some testing, I confirm the dev options make things better but still far from perfect. Still some micro lag when opening closing app drawer, and when opening a new page in chrome.
I don't understand this behaviour since I didn't find anything on internet, and I didn't have these issues with a LG G4 which has the same hardware, and notre running aosp like moto does more or less. I thought it would running better!
I'm gonna send it back as I bought it on Amazon a week ago.

Latest FW update lag

Hey I updated to the last FW update, and ever since my phone has been lagging significantly. I can't even use Google now service, because it freezes my whole phone. Now my camera app keeps turning off after trying to use it.
What's up with this?
