[Q] Extremely poor quality of camera when video chatting - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got an att lg g2 a few days ago with stocked firmware 80010d. Everything worked very well. I then flashed my cell to att 4.4.2 kitkat (80020c) with lg flash tool. The updating process should be successful because I strictly followed a video tutorial and everything is expected.
After flashing I realized that the picture quality of both front and back camera are very poor in some video chatting software (I used Wechat and Hangout). How poor it is? Most of the time my picture is totally black unless you put a light source in front of the camera (both front and back camera are experiencing the same thing). It seems the brightness level of the camera is set to its lowest value so everything is dark, and there is no way to adjust it in the video chatting software. (I do try to set the ISO and brightness to maximum level in camera app, but nothing is changed). Attachments show screen captures in Hangout with or without a light source in it.
Occasionally (it happened once when I had the phone fully charged), the brightness level is good, but the picture quality is extremely low. It seems the camera resolution is only 0.1MP instead of 2MP.
The camera itself works very well taking pictures or videos. It is only bad in video chatting. I searched hard on google but it seems my case is very rare. Is there some settings or adjustments I can do to fix this problem? I know my question is too long, Thank you for any advice.

Guess this is really rare. I will roll back to 10d and see what happens.

My wife's new LG G2 is doing the same thing and she is on stock kit Kat uprooted, came f e on AT&T on 10C, I'm using ClodyPro II on mine and mine works fine. Her problem is exactly like yours

So found a fix, just did it for my wife's G2 which as I said has the same issue, or had. I used the Flashtool to taker her back to 10d then I rooted, installed recovery, updated recovery, and flashed the 10d to 10c keep root and recovery in the AT&T G2 Dev Section, after I backed up first and preformed the install I immediately did a factory reset to wipe data, cache, and dalvik before I rebooted from recovery. Once it was set up, I tried hangouts and the camera looked just like mine, great!! Thought I'd share

Droid X Camera Not Working After Update?

Got the Droid X on 7/15, everything was great, got the system update, now the camera won't work. Black screen only, even though both the Camera and Camcorder apps behave like they're working (with a black screen). Cannot take pictures at all, can take video, although no image is shown and playback of videos is a completely black screen.
I look in the camera and it looks like the shutter is open, although I'm not 100% certain what a closed shutter would look like. I think I can see the lens.
I did a full System Restore, the problem did not go away.
I've tried the camera app from the marketplace, facebook, etc., all treat the camera in the same way: just a black screen.
Trying to take a picture, the focus noise doesn't even sound.
This was working prior to the update, albeit in a laggy manner. Should I return my Droid X, or is there some other software / use fix I have not tried?
Thank you in advance!
No one else is having this issue?
This is the first i personally have heard of this issue.
I would take it back and see if they can exchange it.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
After the update I would try to go into the camera but it would say that it couldn't open it. A couple hours later it worked no problem. I recommend a factory reset to se if that helps and then try to exchange.
Edit: sort I didn't se that you already tried to reset it. Yeah it is time to take it back.

I've tried a soft and hard reset and no luck. But a quick search on the Motorola forums brings me to conclude that this could be a major problem that if it doesn't happen to you now, it might just happen later.

I have two droid X phones. My Camera quit the first time I tried to use it after the update. My daughters died 2 days after she updated. Verizon fix is to send me a refurbished phone. My fix is to get rid of motorola and verizon as soon as possible. Any help would be appreciated

Mine did same thing... i pulled the battery while phone was on per the tech on the phone and it has worked fine since.
I have noticed this on rooted droid x's. Factory wipe didn't really resolve any of the camera issues. Re-loading with SBF resolved the issue sometimes, while other times, a simple cache wipe resolves the issue.
I dont know if this will work, but its just a suggestion that fixed my camera. My camera/camcorder app wouldn't open, so then I went into the gallery and deleted a corrupted image (It was all strange looking, a black square with lines on it, and also wouldn't open in any programs). Once I removed this image from my SD card the camera worked. Worth a try I guess...
Also try using another app to open the camera, like Vignette, in order to see if it is a hardware issue or a blur camera app issue.

Snapchat camera issue?

Ok...something strange is happening when I use snapchat. I take a picture and than the app closes by itself and the camera refuses to work until I reboot...any other camera app will just gove a can nit connect to camera message until I reboot. Ill reboot and any camera app works (stock/instagram) but as soon as I try snapchat again...it auto closes when I take a picture and suddenly the camera wont connect again.
The strangest part is it was working fine earlier...ive been using snapchat since I got the phone with no issues...so not sure whats up...ive uninstalled and reinstalled...so not really sure what else to do...anyone have any suggestions? Anyone else experience this? Do you think maybe its hardware??? I dont think its hardware cause it works fine until I use snapchat...but idk cant figure this one out
Also, I have done notging new to my phone...no nee apps, no new mods, no new updates...nothing so there really is no reason for this behavior. Ill try odin later but im away from my oc at the moment and just wanted to get other peoples input
Edit: snapchat appears to be working again...still strange that that happened...makes me worried as I dont know if it was the hardware or app failing

Fine for me. No issues no lag
I've had the same issue a couple times. It's really weird. It only happens on the rear camera (the 13MP good camera) and only in certain scenarios. I tried to take a picture of my hammock, it locked up and I had to shut down. I took a picture of the ground, no problems. Hammock again, locked up. Flash on/off, doesn't matter. Weirdest thing.
I think it might be the camera software switching between white balances automatically (no proof to back this up, but since it matters where I point the camera, it has to have something to do with what the camera is seeing and doing in response to the scenery) and SnapChat might not play well with one of the white balances.
I just now took a picture of my driveway from inside my house, no problem. Took a picture of the hammock in the yard, freeze up. There's a lot of green in the hammock shot, I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Have you guys factory reset. First thing I did when I turned it on
My girlfriend's s4 is doing the same thing she only gets it on the front camera but can make it do it at will she says it when the camera first turns on and is focusing and adjusting the color of you take a pic before it settles down it does what the op said.

i think your hammock is cursed o.o and i have no issues. it works fine on both front and back cameras in snapchat/any other camera app.
sorry to bump an old post but did anyone ever find a solution to this problem, its been happening to me on my gs4 from verizon. It will work then all of a sudden it does the same thing with the camera and just exits the app?
Same deal on my Galaxy s4 that is barely a month old. Everything was working perfectly fine until a couple of days ago when I try to send snaps using the rear camera.
Goes something like this:
- Take photo with rear camera, app crashes
- Screen freezes at the Snapchat 'loading' screen OR nonfunctional camera within the app (whereas everything else works such as receiving incoming snaps)
- Rebooting works from time to time, but the problem is reoccurring
- Tried clearing cache/reinstalling the app, no luck
It's starting to really get on my nerves.
I had the same problem. Snapchat force closes and camera starts to fail. I contacted the snapchat team and reported the problem. I got a reply saying that they are working on it. Maybe you guys should send them an email too and explain the problem you guys are having.
I have the exact same issue. I've not been able to find a work-around.
snapchat freezes on videos that are longer then like 2-3 seconds it seems... then i have to restart again to get the camera back...
Nothing is wrong with your phones. Snapchat is an extremely ****tily programmed app. What do you expect from a terrible iOS port?
I might suggest Wink! as an alternative, but it doesn't support video, but meh.
Yeah I have the same problem. It's fricken ridiculous. When will they fix this?

I think it may have to do with using the CM/non TW camera.. Whenever I used it I experienced this very problem. Since I've gone back to TW, I have not..

Camera testing

While checking the camera I noticed a few symptoms:
[-](Taking photos at night/low light): with/without flash sometimes the photo saved with 1pixel white line (sometimes 2 pixels), the line is random and change to each photo - at the top starting left / left starting buttom (depend on which way you take the picture), here is a sample of picture with this line (circled) at the buttom.
I've found it happens sometimes while taking picture in low light/dark/night, have no idea why is that and what the reason of this.
[-]Another thing while taking picture at low light/dark background with flash: dosn't matter how you focus (auto focus/manual-touching the screen/long press on the button) seems like you should take a few photos of the same image to get a 'satisfactory' picture - I took few pictures on the same place and got some too 'flashy' photo, some too darky (seems like the flash was too fast) and some was what I've expected (OK), at the dark pictures seems the +2 exposure didn't help (didn't notice any difference between 0 to +2, but there is a difference between -2 to 0) -> seems you getting different photos on same shot image and must take few shots to get what you expect to get.
[-]The picture that seems to save after taking a shot sometimes looks different then what its realy saved, for example you taking a picture with flash - its looks like its saving a too lighty/flashy-full flash picture but when you open the gallery you see the picture is fine.
[-]HDR mode: sometimes when its getting focus (manualy or automatically) its not possible to change the focus and any attemp to manual focus (while touching on places on the screen) is do nothing and seems its stuck on the last focus.
[-]Video: sometimes seems its stuck on focus - after focusing on macro/closer image and taking time (if so) to release the focus to infinity, if it dosn't release the only way to fix it is to renter the camera app and record video again.
[-]At day light / regular conditions - great and sharp photos but seems its more grainy then other cameras, especially photos with sky (the sky).
Overall its a great camera, all the above are not something that should disturb someone, I didn't forgot its 'just' a smartphone camera, you can always get better results using 'SnapSeed' app
Does anyone else notice these (or some of these) symptoms and have any knowledge how to get it better or solutions or maybe insights about these symptoms? (the using of camera) would like to get some information...
Anyway - do you recommand other Camera applications? I tried Focal - seems its still have a lil bugs, FV-5 (on my S2) ...
Thanks!
Today I've notice a bug [seems like a real one this time]:
When took a photos: low light + flash (macro focus if its matter), while I took few pictures one after another the camera app got stuck and reboot the device.
I've tried it without flash and didn't got reboot, then its happens again while I've checked at the same condition (low light and flash on).
Also notice that none of these photos (that freeze the app and reboot my device) are saved correctly seems like its 'break' pictures that didn't saved well...
Anyway after I manualy reboot the device and tried it again it wasn't crash/freeze/reboot device.
Just mention that I'm using the stock camera app at stock rom 4.2.2 without root or anything...also my device was on for few days (without any reboot).
Does anyone have any idea about this bug or other symptoms that I had mention at the 1st post?

I have the same problem as you are describing. I have reproduce it on stock 4.3, cm 10.1.3 and cm 10.2.
I just reproduced it after I took like 100 photos. The Phone just rebooted after a short hang.
Maybe this is a hardware fault on some devices. When did you bought your Phone? Mine is the white one just a week old. Rev 11. If that says something.

Seems like the flash heat the cpu or something like that...happened again today (without purpose) after few focus with flash few photos with flas..at regular photo without flash (straight after) it got stuck and reboot the device.
Then I tried to get it again but now with Camera360 app, lots of focus flash,photos with flash,without....seems works fine.
Maybe a stock app problem, guess anyway its the flash (another guy got reboot after using flashlight app).
There is any app that I could determine the CPU temperature even after reboot/turn off (like GSAM graph or the built in Battery graph that show all day and not only when you turn on /reboot device and start a new one every time)?
Btw - the device is only month old (from play uk), my serial# start with 304k, whats yours?
Yesterday night I had this again, only 2 photos with flash, take a look at the gallery and got freeze then reboot.
The device was cold [also wifi was off this time, I didnt tought its something to do with it anyway just mention] so nothing about hot cpu...
It might be something with the stock app and/or stock gallery app [maybe the swipping thing from camera to gallery and vice versa], as I tried again camera360 with lots of flash, focus flash and lots of photos and seems it was fine.
Very weird.
What camera app do you guys recommands?
I think it's an issue with the AOSP camera app. My rev. 10 211k Nexus 4 does this sometimes when taking a picture with flash on. It hasn't done it with a flashlight app ever though. I haven't encountered this issue with Focal, but I don't like Focal much.

Yeah, seems like its something with the stock camera app... I really like the stock one, Focal is almost the same with some more options but it isn't stable yet.
I found camera360 doing great job but I like the stock-clean design more...
Anyway I hope the new KitKat version will fix it.
BTW - any reason/idea about the first symptom that i've mentioned in the first post? [the white 1pixel line], and about the stuck focus on HDR mode?

I've got a rev 11 White too, I've got a strange Issue, if I take a photo with the stock rom with flash on with and without touch to focus everything seems to be right; If I take a photo with a CM based ROM without touch to focus I obtain an almost black picture, could it be an hardware issue?
And one kiddish doubt , why we can't take 16:9 pics ? Any idea ? Or it is possible and am I missing something ?

I've notice it too, also with stock, I mentioned it as well - seems like we need to take few photos of the same thing to get and chooce the better result, I've found it sometimes the flash is too fast and its taking the photo just before the led turn off or before its turn on fully... something like that. but its on flash photos most of the time.
Try taking 10 shots of the same thing, you could notice a difference between some of the pictures. (BTW I think its happens with and without touch focus; it dosn't matter)

G2 camera doesnt focus

I'm currently on stock zvc rooted with twrp from autorec. I have been using Jishnu's 4k cam mod for a while now and its worked perfectly fine but all of a sudden my camera lost the ability to focus. It did this a couple days ago and I tried restoring camera from Jishnu's camupdate apk and then reinstalling and also installed xdabbeb's 4k cam and it wasn't working but after 15 mins or so I went back to the camera and it was working again. This time though I tried to do what I did before but it doesnt have any effect on it. I no longer have the stock camera files does anyone have them so I can try that out? A flashable zip would be even better if possible. Other then that does anyone have any idea what I could do besides tot'ing back which I'd rather avoid if possible?
Did you try another camera app to make sure it's not a hardware issue?
If I helped you, please thank me
got a stock non rooted d803 and camera just wont focus as well
takes nice close up pics but anything further than 2 inches and its out (even manual focusing doesnt work)
tried other camera apps and no joy, went as far as factory reset and nothing
LG and phone company tech advised bringing it in for replacement

Sorry for the late reply didn't notice I got two replies but I had tried google camera and another random camera before
and they both wouldn't focus at all. However my camera is working now I went and tot'd to stock 4.4.2 but the camera
wasn't working immediately after doing that it still wasn't working so I was afraid maybe the hardware was broken. But
after installing the 4k camera mod and doing some messing around with the camera and then leaving the phone alone
for a while with the camera app running in the background it works again. Its very weird I don't really understand it what
threw me off as well was after running titanium backup to restore apps/data the camera was still working so I started
setting stuff up. I noticed the xposed installer was not up to date so I went and updated it and then rebooted the phone.
After that I checked the camera and it wasn't focusing again at all. I figured xposed might be the culprit so I went and
uninstalled it then rebooted but it didn't have any effect the cam still wouldn't focus. So I reinstalled and enabled it and
did the installing 4k mod messing with camera and leaving it alone routine and after a while the camera is working
again. Very suspicious I'm at a loss but I went and did a nandroid backup while the camera was working so if anything
I can restore that and hopefully fix it.

Sorry for the late reply but my camera still isn't working properly. Whenever I open a camera app its all blurry and it won't
focus what I have to do everytime I need to take a picture of something is shake the phone around in different angles and
sometimes hit it near the camera region lol. I find that after giving it a good shake/hit it'll start focusing again. I don't know if
that means theres a problem with the OIS interfering in some way since the lens can move around and stuff so maybe shaking
it makes it focus correctly but its annoying.
I would go bring the phone in for repair/replacement if you're covered. I would do it myself but I plan on getting the G3 soon
anyway so don't really need to fix this one. Hope it works out for you though.

Camera Problems after Nougat Upgrade

Hi,
Upgraded to Nougat via OTA Sideload.
Works really well, except that all my pictures taken with my main camera are much too dark.
I also tried the Open Camera App, with the same results. Even if I turn the intensity up, it looks good in the screen, but as soon as the picture is taken, it is too dark again.
Anyone experienced similar things after upgrading to Nougat?

Works really well, except that all my pictures taken with my main camera are much too dark.
I also tried the Open Camera App, with the same results. Even if I turn the intensity up, it looks good in the screen, but as soon as the picture is taken, it is too dark again.
Anyone experienced similar things after upgrading to Nougat?
