Please anybody help me with this issue. Is my camera has some broken circuit or what ?

have you tried to make a video call? if that doesnt work, your camera is probably broken...

Samsung Galaxy S 3 Sensors!?

Hello,
So today i noticed on the left side of the speaker, that there are 3 sensors, both of them are together on the same place, which should be Light sensor and proximity sensor... but what about the other one more to the left? Seems pretty much like a Small LED to me.
Check this picture guys and u will see it clear enough!

Update after a test [Post #4]
Center: Proximity
Right: Light
Left: ?

Is one the light sensor for the auto-brightness thing, and the other two possibly a 'sender/reciever' set up for detecting when it's close to your face in order to turn the screen off during a call?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I believe the proximity sensor and light sensor are both together, which leaves the left sensor... i wonder what it is
May be u r right, i am dying to find out!
I will test it with a Q-tip. I pointed a flashlight with high brigthness on the sensors now, the left one doesnt seem like a LED... so that option just kinda died

Ok tested it, qtip during the call shows that the proximity sensor is the one in the CENTER.
Used a black fabric for the light sensor... with my finger over the fabric covered the left and right sensors, result: RIGHT sensor is the light sensor!
Leaves: Left sensor.... what is it?
Center: Proximity
Right: Light
Left: ?

spy cam - big brother is watching you!
beats me i hadnt even noticed it!

I would probably guess that the two closest together are a Transmitter/ Receiver pair.
It could be emitting infra-red and using a receiver to detect how far away an object is based upon the light returned.
One way to sometimes 'see' this is to use a normal camera to look at it, if it shows a white spot, there is a good chance it's emitting IR.

front face camera

If there's no notification led i bet this phone has a camera next to the proximity sensor.
Will it be enabled in the future with a hack like multitouch on huawei u8510 ideos?

Please use the search, this has been asked many times before.
There is no front facing camera on omnia 7, just proximity and light sensor.

[Q] use front camera as proximity sensor?

Hi, is there a way (xposed or anything else) to use the front camera as proximity sensor?
Because there's a problem with the sensor, it shows that it's always covered

Your sensor is dirty. It has dust behind the glass that got in through the speaker grill.
It can be easily cleaned though. Takes about 15 minutes.
Check my profile and look for threads started by me. There is a guide on how to clean the sensor on that list.

Camera lens position!

I noticed my back camera lens is slightly lower than center and sometimes it moves to center.... I understand OIS must be the reason but it's unacceptable when camera is off. OIS and consequently camera slight movements must be active when you use camera!
Has anybody else noticed this?

So...do you have a real problem with the camera when taking pics ... or not?
