Note 4 Rogers Camera issue - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, i have Note 4 with rogers, rooted with cf autoroot. I rooted my phone 2-3 days ago and
today I installed wanam xposed, xblast, swipeback. Everything works fine beside camera. Camera opens properly i can the the view but cannot touch any button but i can take pictures with volume buttons. Cannot switch camera. Basically any option on the screen is not touchable.
Sorry for my bad english.
If you need more information let me know and i dont want to restore. I searched on google didn't find any solution.
Camera does work in whatsapp or facebook or other applications.

I turned off the settings in swipeback for camera and it fixed the issue. Can someone close or delete this thread for me. thanks.

[Q] Camera Locking Up An Issue?

So I was using my phone yesterday to take pictures of my computer. I tried on two occasions to touch and zoom in on an area (which worked fine) but as soon as I press the shutter button to take the picture, the phone would make a weird noise (seems to be coming from the lens?) then it just freezes. It eventually took the picture after the reset.
I have to hold my power button to get it to fully reset. Then this morning I noticed that my clock and date were all messed up.. set back to 1970 and time was reset.
Anyone else experienced this before? Nothing else is wrong with the phone but I'm not sure if this would be a software or hardware issue.
Thanks.
Yeah Ive had the camera app lock up a few times. Shutter button does nothing (didnt notice any sounds as I was outdoors), closing the camera app does not fix it, full restart is necesary but my clock worked fine at boot. Ive also had an issue where if you touch to focus and then swipe to see the gallery then the LED flash will stay lit indefinetly, forcing you to go back to the camera app and re-focus.
What rom / kernel are you guys using ?
Not sure if this is related but I've had the camera refuse to take pictures a lot, especially in low light - the camera cannot seem to focus so hitting the shutter button does nothing. I find switching to another mode (video for example) and then back again sometimes cures it. I've also had it lock up and leave the flash on. I'm surprised this got through testing as it seems quite a common issue from other N4 users I've spoken to.

Same issue here too - just received mine 2 days ago and I sometimes need to change the camera to video mode then back to picture mode for it to be able to take pictures again.
Pure vanilla phone here, no custom kernels or any roms of any kind.. hell my phone isn't even rooted.. lol.
I've just started to notice that since I've been trying to take more pics with my phone lately.
And yes I've been seeing issues with the camera not wanting to take shots or focus properly either.
Same issues yesterday i was taking pics of my x-mas tree and gifts, suddenly the camera wouldn't focus anymore, had to restart the camera app, also auto focus is really not functioning too well... It can't seem to lock when focused on a subject...

[Q] Galaxy S4 camera failing on video

Hello guys! I am running 4.2.2 , stock but rooted, on my I9505 Galaxy S4 and a few days ago I opened the camera app to record a video. When I opened the camera app, everything was working fine, focus worked and when i tapped the video button it lagged. After about 10 seconds of freezeness, the camera turned black and showed a message box Camera Failed, and then the app closed. After that, when i opened the camera app it would stay black and do nothing, without even showing the controls. It cannot be recovered until you reboot. Then, the camera works again, tried focusing, even burst mode, but if you tap the video button it crashes. Tried deleting cache as well as installing a camera app from the play store and also tried the 4.3 leaked camera app. I do not know what to do but it really is a problem. Is there a fix that does not involve taking it for replacement.

Camera Vibration

so about 2 months ago my note 3 started vibrating when using the camera. I first noticed it in snapchat, the camera wouldn't focus and I noticed the phone is vibrating. Basically every time an app uses the camera and it fails to focus the phone would start vibrating for a really long period of time, which then makes pics distort and the camera fails to focus again which extends the vibration. I thought it's a touchwiz rom error (I was using xnote when it happened for first time (4.4 btw, don't remember which version of x-note it was) but then I tried out some AOSP roms and the stock s5 port and then I came back to xnote v16 and it kept doing this vibration thing. Any ideas what causes it/how to fix it?
I have no idea. Mine started doing this just now. But I noticed it's not just in the camera app, it's anytime the phone is in landscape no matter what app is running.
same issue on N9005
I can't remember when it started but it's rendered the camera basically useless. Sometimes it finds focus and stops the vibration... what I found helps somewhat is shaking the phone rather violently, it stops vibration and then works as normal, untill I close the Camera app and go back into it, then same story. I can't think that this is a hardware issue as it is able to focus and take pictures just fine. This is a major annoyance but I don't think it's unsolveable. I'm no developer but may it be at all possible yo fix this with an xposed module or tweak that completely disables the vibration motor in the phone while in the camera app? Is this a possibility or is the problem deeper than that. I've tried loads of ROMs and it's present on all of them, the leaked Lollipop firmware as well. It's impossible to go back to Jelly Bean AFAIK but before I updated to Kit Kat I didn't have this issue.
I have this problem too
Vibrate when im in camera...not always somtimes
5.1.1
I guess this was never solved?

[Q] Can't hangup or use buttons in call (cmod 11)

Hi everyone,
I've got a used LG G2 with a broken display that I just replaced. Everything works with CyanogenMod 11 20140708-snapshot-m8-d802 (4.4.4), except for the dialer which acts up weird.
When I place or receive a call, the display turns black, and it doesn't come on again when I remove it from the face - seems like the light detector isn't working. I can turn on the diplay by using the power button though. Here another problem araises; I can't use any of the button on the dialer screen. I can't hang up, I can't enable the speakphone or show the numberpad. I haven't done any modding expect for installing a new rom and wiping the previous users' data.
Any ideas?

Sorry. I have the exact same problem. Began on PA 4.4.4+ and now back to stock and still does not work. Have you figured it out? Seems like a problem with the proximity sensor and no way to turn it off. Frustrating.
Sorry to hear that I ended up fixing it by hard resetting my phone with the software provieded by LG. I haven't installed a new custom rom since - instead I use the LG rom and customize it with the Xposed framework and the G2 Settings module. It works great, except for some random update notifications from the LG app store from time to time.
Not really a the solution that I has looking for, but now I can use the phone as it was intended. Please keep me updated if you come about some other workaround.

Camera out of focus on Skype

Hello, guys,
My rear camera is completely out of focus on the Skype app, so it's unusable. It is focusing ok (I suppose, I read the circle should turn green but mine is always white, but it seems focused) on the camera app and other apps (it struggled a bit once on genius scan but then it worked fine). I really dont know if its a software bug or if I should try to return my phone (you know, its a hassle).
Thanks a lot
