Hi, recently acquired a Touch HD in Singapore and was excited about it. However, I've found that I have some issues witht he camera and video functions. Just wondering anyone have any experience in it and you counter it.
Camera: When I just press the only button on the screen to take picture, Touch HD will do the auto focus thingy and then snap the picture. By the time it snap, it's not the picture that I really hope to capture. Does anyone else have this issue or is there any "tips & tricks" around this?
Video: Tried taking a video clip but when I play it, thevideo clips kind of staggered. Every 3 secs of video, 0.5 secs of it are gone.
Hope someone would enlighten me. Thanks
Hey guys/gals, while chatting about the constant autofocus on the camera yiancar suggests we try other camera apps.
He installed "fxcamera" and said it has an autofocus toggle. And suggested I try it.
So I download and loaded it, selected the normal camera, it started autofocusing even without tapping the screen or selecting the autofocus toggle.. Making that focus clicking sound.
His does not... I remember there being mentioned somewhere that they were having issues with quality control with the cameras, don't know if this has anything to do with it.
So if you have a chance, could you please download "fxcamera" and test your camera's autofocus and report your findings here? (mention if your unit does or does not auto focus click constantly, which model, and rom version you're on)
Thanks in advance!
Hi clockcycle
My camera does the continuous autofocus only in difficult light situations, for example in a dimmed lecture hall. When I have enough contrast in the picture it just perform the autofocus when I moved the camera/tablet. This happens with the standard camera app and I also tested fxcamera - the same result.
Can you find a light scenario where your constant autofocus stops?

Hey all!
I normal only get one long autofocus unless light is really low (very similar to strahl actually) and fxcamera makes no difference (with autofocus turned off and on)
Thia is from an Adam rooted and running utopia.
Please excuse the awful spelling on the above. I'm too new on this forum to be trusted with the edit button yet!
hi CC,
Just want to report to all that I m using EdenX 2.4 rom which is based on latest NI rom 040811. And in this latest rom NI has fixed the constant refocusing of camera issue. I have tested it and camera stops refocusing after few seconds of delay.
now some hacker/developer might want to take on this.. to help us..to get a toggel switch in camera app for manual and auto options...
@clockcycle I would second whatever strahl's mentioned. Seems to work the same for me too.
On a separate note, one bloke in a thread at tabletrom opened up adam, disconnected the auto focus motor of the camera and he's put up a video after doing it. The camera is now fixed focus and works well for him.
I report 3rd then as someone whose camera will keep focusing in bright areas such as a classroom or when pointed upwards towards any lights.
I can also report that while pointing into dimmer directions the camera stops auto-focusing.
While I think that opening it up and disconnecting the wire is cool, I don't want to have to do that to mine.
What files/drivers work with the camera, can we not just replace the ones that are in the working updates with our current roms?

Hi guys!
I recently update my GT-I9500 for Lollipop (5.0.1) stock I9500XXUHOA7 . All features is okay but my front face camera have problems, it's blurry, without focus. Have focus on close objects (appear you select macro option, but not because the front camera is infinite or fixed, idk) but when you get far of object (up to 10cm) the image come so much blurry.
I try a lot of other camera app's but no successful. And this phone never take any impact, is brand new.
Here is the picture taken using stock camera app:

The first picture is close and show ok focus.
The second picture is far from object and show blurry, no focus.
Plz I need help! How fix it?

My nexus 6p is now about 1 month old and since yesterday i noticed my rear camera has been producing unfocused and blurry images. It also make a little cracking noise when i open the camera app or switch back to the rear camera from the front facing camera. Please help me please. I tried to clean the lens and I even buy fv camera 5 and try manual focus but it did not work. The images produces from the rear camera are now even worse than the front facing camera.

From what you describe it sounds like the VCM/AF Actuator has malfunctioned.
Try this Download Freedcam from play store
Make sure you give it permission to access camera
Settings > Api > Camera 2
Then set Focus to manual then activate Focus Peak
Then move focus wheel if you start seeing yellow higlights/ outline that means its focusing if no highlights then AF Broken.
Also try Reset Device if no go i suggest you return the device

I tried to reset but it did not work also I tried moving the wheel but no luck. I ship this unit to Vietnam which is where I'm currently living so I cannot send it back. Also the cracking noise every time I open my main camera really worried me, it does sound like something went wrong from the inside. I have been taking fine and focused image up till now. I find this happened the day after I went home raining without an umbrella or raincoat. It was a small rain and the device was not soaked in water it was just having little splash of water on it. I wondered if this was the reason
After I googled this problem there seems to be others having the same problem as me and they are sending back their devices
Hi koala . Did you send back yours too? I bought this phone about 5months back. I have the same problem. Any chance of a replacement?
Hi, Did this ever get resolved? I ordered a replacement camera module and tools to fix it myself. The repair guide is from Repair Universe. Here's the video on YouTube.

Did you update to Nougat already? I do not experience this, but it might be because I'm still on Marshmallow.
