Hi guys , everything was working fine with my new note 3. I have it for 4 days. Today , i updated the phone , it was some 190 mb patch. Phone restarted , installed everything and it was running as always. But then i tried camera , because there was some new feature with photo preview or whatever and the thing is that camera wont focus at all. It doesnt matter if low light or good ligh , flash on , of. It just wont focus anymore.
please guys help
Edit : I have just realised that camera can focus really close objects , like in 10 cm distance. But thats all.

Hi,
I'd suggest trying some different camera apps, just to see if the focus behaves differently in other apps. Then I'd try different settings in the stock camera app like auto focus, smart stabilization - just to see if the outcome is any different. If the camera indeed behaves differently on other apps or other settings in the stock app, than it might be a software issue (factory reset maybe?). I mean since you say it appears since updating, a factory reset might fix it...who knows.
Tried everything
Tried google camera app , tried reseting setting on samsung camera , still only macro is working.
By doing factory reset , all of my data and app will be deleted ? I dont really want to do that.
Yeah, that will wipe your data aswell. You could use full backups if you're rooted or if you have custom recovery flashed, but if you are using pure stock, then I can understand that you're not into wiping everything. Other than wiping, I can't give you more advice. Maybe someone else knows what to do.
Factory reset done , still not working

I just did factory reset and camera is still unable to focus I guess that i am sending this phone right away tomorrow and gonna change it for xperia z2 Note 3 is amazing but camera in low light is bad. And i need good camera in low light. Gonna miss S pen , bit amoled screen , usb 3.0 , 32 gig of internal storage and more. But low light camera performance is really poor.
I've had this problem on my note 2. It is a hardware problem. I had to replace the camera itself and it worked fine after. Something must've borked it during the update. Very uncommon, though.
After a long time since I write here I must ask for your help, Good Morning and sorry for my English!
For a year I suffer from a problem with my S4, GT-I9505 ITV Italy. Saving themselves fortunately ,in the water, only had problems with the camera . Everything goes to wonder just that when I try to switch between camera back to that to make " Selfie " is as if it were non-existent , at least if you use the ' application of samsung . The problem also with key camera settings . These two problems are solved with the ' camera use google or other applications ! Lollipop in S4 did not solve the problem , what can I do ? Thank!
i have bought a new samsung j5 SM-J500H a few days ago. when i opens box and start using the mobile i have noticed that its rear camera is a little bit slow.. i mean to say that when i open camera its blurry .. after 5-10 seconds its blurry finished and it shows normal. i installed a few other camera apps and checked but the blurry is still exist in those apps. i dont know how t figure-out.. all the settings are default setting in camera. should i replace it through warranty?

Does it have some foil over camera? If not, then it may be a hardware issue.
You can also check for updates and see if there is any. Also, try Open Camera if you didn't yet.
Thanks for replying. no, there is no foil .. i also checked for update but no update for my Samsung j5.
First i am sorry for my english
My problem.
When i use the flash to take a picture in low light or darkness my pictures come out black or reaaaaly dark.
The flash either goes off to fast or is to short. It only seems like a micro second.
When i focus the camera it does emit the light to focus.
The solution i found.
Well to be honest i have no idea how to use it.
It is some sort of code and i am a complete idiot at that
I am running
(Stock) Android 6.0.1
Kernel 3.10.61-8140803
Build number MMB29K.G903FXXU1BPE2
Camera firmware is stock
CAM FW version K16LLIA00SM
Load FW version K16LLJA01SC
PHONE FW version K16LLJA01SC
I am getting very annoyed by this problem and the fact that i spend 3 hours searching for a solution i cant apply had me mad as hell.
Edit: forgot to metion i tried all options i could think of with the camera setting. Even downloaded a 3rd party program called camera vf5
I am hoping you are able to help me

Hello I'm looking for some help with my wife's phone . Ever since I updated the firmware to the latest the camera has this weird bug. When I take a picture in the dark the flash turns of before the shot is taken . Almost like the shutter is lagging. Any help would be appreciated.
