I have searched but i cant find anything so sorry if i missed it.
my cam has developed a bug where it goes white screen b4 it takes pic ... this happened b4 and i hardreset and it fixed.
but now pics are also pixelated (attached pic not best to use but others are peoples faces)
any fix or do i have to hardreset
no one else have this issue ever?
This error keeps happening
Ok .. so since i originally posted this this error has happened about 3 times.
randomly out of the blue when i click on the cam i get the screen saying its found a storage card do i want to use it, then when i take a picture i get the white screen while its taken the picture and the picture is pixelated.
i look in the settings and it appears all the settings are changed to lowest res , no sounds , no review time , not wide screen etc etc .
if i manually put the settings back the pictures for the most part work fine (apart from the white screen so u can see what its focusing on b4 the pic is taken)
only solution i have found is hard reset.
i find it hard to believe it is just me and since a hardreset fixes it i dont think its hardware. any ideas on what is causing it and how to fix without reset as its just happened again

You can try to repair by yourself.

You can try 4 steps as below:
1. Soft-reset the phone. When the phone doesn’t respond, remove the battery for a minute. Let the phone rest without power then replace the battery and turn it back on.
2. Close apps running in the background. This problem could also be caused by RAM insufficiency, which occurs when there are a ton of apps running in the background. One thing you can do to make things a little easier is to boot the phone to Safe Mode:
Turn off your phone.
Switch it on again.
Right after pressing the power switch, continuously tap the Menu key (the button on the left of the Home key).
Once the phone is up, you will see “Safe Mode” on the lower left corner of the screen.
Now launch Camera once again and see if it causes blank screen.
If the problem was solved by booting up to Safe Mode, then try disabling recently-installed applications.
3.Factory reset. Try doing a factory reset to bring the phone back to its original settings. For those who rooted their phone and installed custom ROMs, you might want to reinstall the firmware.
4. If the problem persists after you do the solutions above, the camera is broken. You need to replace a new one. It is not a hard task. But there are many versions of S4. If you use a wrong camera, the screen will shows "camera failed" while using camera app.

Dear Guys,
I have a Samsung Focus, i am rare use it but from few days ago its screen flickering, then i try hard reset but same prob.I update windows 7.5 to 7.8 but no solution,some time stop when i move to another page or setting page , then again come back. pls help to resolve it.
Hello all,
Every time I open my camera and toggle front face camera all it shows is a white screen. The options are all there and the rear facing camera works fine. I have googled the issue and cant seem to find anyone with the same issue just people who have black screens or errors saying "camera fail". Here is what I have tried so far:
Clear camera cache and data then reboot- Didnt Work
Rebooted into safe mode -Didnt Work
Wiped the Cache Partition -Didnt Work
Factory reset- Didnt Work
Bought a new camera module and installed it. I then repeated the steps above -Didnt Work
Any ideas why its not working? or suggestions on what to do next?
I do remeber the last app I installed before the camera when bad was snapchat. When I uninstalled it and reinstalled it it did nothing for the camera. I also did the factory reset and the camera didnt work before I added snapchat again.
*UPDATE- I took the phone apart and removed the front camera and reassembled it without it and the phone shows a black screen. When I added the camera back it went back to the white screen. Software issue?

I took the phone apart and removed the front camera and reassembled it without it and the phone shows a black screen. When I added the camera back it went back to the white screen. Seems like the phone is making some kind of communication with the camera.
Hi!, I have been having problems with my phone camera for a whyle (2 years aprox). Since I started using lolipop and marshmallow roms the camera hasn't been working fine. Actually it doesn't even work. I would post some images but this is my first post and XDA doesn't let me, so i will describe it the best I can. When I open the camera app, all I see is white, after a while some pink dots start to appear. This dots multiply all over the screen and thats all I get. If I zoom in this pink dots gets bigger, and look like pixels, like it's some sort of digital filter, and not what the camera is capturing. If I wait long enough, and point the camera into a light, the image gets clearer and it starts to show something. I am now using Dirty Unicorns 10.6. It's a D806 model, but inside the phone, it says it's a D805. I have always used D802 roms.
It looks like is a hardware issue, but everytime I go back to KK stock, this problem stops and the camera works just fine, then when I flash a custom rom after some weeks, this problem starts again. Also I have searched a lot and it seems like no one has this problem. If i try to film a video, the app crashes and it saw "it couldn't conect to the camera" but in the normal mode if I touch the screen, I can see the lens moving, like it's adjusting it's focus
Do you have any idea of what could it be?. I dont know if this is important but I have bricked my phone several times, to the point where one time even the download mode was broken, and when I pluged the phone into the computer, windows detected like 60 particions. I fixed this via pushing some files into the phone using ubuntu, and then doing the same thing in windows with a tool I found here in XDA.
Thanks, and sorry if my english is not the best, is not my native language.
