Has anyone been having this issue with Snapchat? The front facing "flash" is supposed to flood the screen with bright white light to illuminate selfie pics. At some point it has stopped working correctly and only produces a dim grey light that illuminates nothing (see screenshot). I've tried uninstalling/re-installing, Wiping cache, even tried older versions from all mirror. All produce the same results. Now, the actual camera apps front flash works perfectly, so this problem is specific to Snapchat. I'm wondering if it's hardware related. Or a setting somewhere that I messed up. Anybody else having this issue with their S8?
Here's the screenshot

I have Nexus 4 and I am facing camera problem after update of CyanogenMod Version 10.2-20131102-snapshot-M1-mako. in low light camera is not working properly however I have tried all the options like auto flash,HDR, HBR and white balance on auto but the picture is totally black in low light. Kindly help me to solve the issue
So I've seen an issue occur when taking selfies, note only on the system camera app. It's as if the color saturation and brightness are way off. Three of the photos were taken in selfie mode, the clear photo was taken while I was recording with the front camera. Recording is fine and looks as it should, the wide selfie also looks normal. I tested selfies in snapchat as well and it works as it should, I also tested the system camera in other apps like the google messages app and it will take front facing photos normally. I'm not too sure what's going on here and want to see if anyone else has had this issue and if they have resolved it.
I am going to just rewipe the phone as clearly this is a sort of system bug.
Things about my phone:
Originally ATT S7 Edge
I flashed the latest U firmware on this device and the TMobile modem firmware.
I didn't have any issues occur until now.
The attachments are too large for XDA to host so heres a link to the photos I took, hosted on drop box.

(I posted this on the Lenovo site as well.)
Just wanted to report this happening on my xt1644 (US Retail version) G4+. I've had the device for roughly 6 months without this happening on 6.0.1.
When I double flip and occasionally when I use the icon to activate the stock camera, the display screen darkens to a point where the subject of what I'm shooting can't be seen.
I'll point the camera to a bright light source (like a light bulb or sky) and the screen brightens up. Also, if I close the camera app and restart it, it sometimes "fixes" itself.
Anyone else experiencing this? Perhaps this problem/issue has to do with the light sensor(s) on the phone? Just wondering.
Asking the wisdom of the forum and admin.
Thank you.
have you tried with different camera app ??
try and state results

If this happens with other apps, it could point directly to a problem with the ambient light sensor.
If this happens with only this app, it could still point to an issue with the sensor, or the app.
Check if this issue persists with adaptive display disabled. If so, then the problem is with the app. If not, chances are that the light sensor has issues.

I haven't seen this happen while in other apps. It just occurs once in a while when I double wrist flip the phone to activate the stock camera. It doesn't happen all the time.
I'll try to isolate other elements that I may be overlooking.
So, I've been having some issues with the focus on the rear facing camera for the V20
This is a pic with the Wide Angle Lens:

It's crisp and clear (ish)
This is a pic with the normal lens:

It's blurry as hell, unless I'm like two inches away:

I've tried in both Auto and Manual mode, and have tried the focus in both Auto and Manual.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.
P.S. sorry for the imgur links, I haven't posted enough to be allowed links in side my post.
Nope. Just issues with longer focus in darker scenes but that is every phone. Lens clean?
Did you find any solution, I've the same issue.
#4
i have same issues
any solutions?
Tap to focus
I find just pointing it and clicking doesn't set focus properly with some scenes
It's a bit odd as the G4 would have zero issues with this and the V20 also has IR AF
Any Solution yet?
I am also having the same issue, the focus doesn't work, neither manually nor in auto mode. Sometimes, just sometimes, it luckily does work, but most of the time it doesn't.. i dont understand what the problem is..
Recently, the camera was acting way weird, like showing dark picture with green lines, and sometimes it wouldnt even open, it showed just a black screen, i cleared data of gallery and camera, which resolved the issue, but still void of ability to focus.
Hi all,
Anyone elses 3x zoom picture are brighter than usual when taken?
On the viewfinder it looks fine, but after taking the picture, it's like super bright and different to what the viewfinder was.
This doesnt happen to anything after 4x zoom, I'm not sure if it's a bug since I can't see anyone is reporting it. Can someone give this a try please?
Example attached, 4x vs 3x
I have cleared data in the camera and it still happens, I am on latest OOS.
Just did a test, this does not happen when I use burst mode on 3x, the picture is exactly what the viewfinder shows, not the overexposed/brightnened image.
I've done a test and not encountered this issue, is there a particular scenario that it happens that I can test?
