For about a month now I have been unable to take photos with my rear facing camera. When I take a photo using the default camera app it looks like it saved the photo and when I go to look it is a black and white image of a human. It does however save a thumbnail of the picture sometimes. I am able to take pictures (like a selfie) with the front facing camera though successfully.
Here is a screenshot of what my issue looks like. This is after taking a photo with the rear facing camera...
Currently, I have to take pictures with Snap Chat since its the are the only other camera apps that I have on my phone and of course, the quality of those photos are terrible. I can also take a screen shot of the photo as well, but obviously that's not good either. All of these methods save to the SD card.
I have a friend that had the same issue a while back but his works now.
And for some more information:

I bought samsung galaxy s5 and everything was alright but yesterday i saw the black spot in the center of camera it stays on the pic and videos. I hard reset my phone twice i have few scratches on lens glass but I don't think that's the problem why i see that grey, black circle in center its the same size and its in the same spot as focus on cam ?
I just bought a SAmsung galaxy S 6 smartphone. While I am recording a video i cannot by any means change the camera to front facing.There is no option no icon only the capture icon on the left (in order to capture in a pic what i am shooting at the moment), the square icon to stop the video and the pause icon on the right corner.
The camera-app of my G3 sometimes asks me - especially after I rebooted the phone - if I want to save my photos on the SD Card. Somehow, it doesn't remind my desired setting of saving photos on the SD Card. What to do in such a case?
I love my new M8. I previously had the HTC One S, and when in camera mode, you had a camera OR video button at the same time.
On the M8, I see this setup for my front facing camera, but on the rear facing, I have to keep going into the menu and selecting one or another. I frequently flip back and forth, and it's soooo annoying. I'll be ready to snap a pic and oops I left it on video mode. Then I have to stop the video and go back and change. And when you're taking pics of a 9 month old baby, they don't understand to stop and wait a few seconds.
Anyways... is there some kind of setting to display both the camera and video button on the same screen at the same time? I looked around but couldn't find anything.
I'm having a problem saving photos I've edited with the built in Gallery app. When I try to save them after making the edits I get a message "Unable to save changes" at the bottom of the screen.
i am unable to save music, photos and contact in phone.. my phone resets Automatically every day. i don wat is the root cause... to listen to music or to call some one every day i sync my phone with ZUNE software and transfer the contact from my other phone.and would like to know what is the internal memory storage capacity, when i connect my phone to system ZUNE software or "about phone" in my mobile its shows 6GB memory.
Since I upgraded to ICS when I take a photo it will not save to the gallery. The photo is captured but when I touch the picture it displays the message �No items�. I have tried switching between saving photos to the Phone and Memory Card to no avail. My Picture Gallery, just shows the pictures from my Google+ account and Drop Box not those I�ve taken. I am on Three in the UK with the latest firmware version:
Every time when I try to take a picture with the Blackberry photo camera software, the application returns an error message "could not save picture". I have already tried to configure my settings to minimise the picture size and to set the saving to the media card. Does not work. I have verified that the device is not full, actually the number of pictures and music files on the system is now 0. What do I need to do in order to correct?
I have a xperia z2 and my problem is that it does not work the rear camera is in black and I get that the camera is not available, but I put the front camera and works without any problem.
For whatever reason when I load up my camera app, only the front facing camera will work. i have gone through all the settings in the camera but nothing will let me select the main camera. i've had it for 3 days and it's worked fine till about an hour ago. the only thing I did was install angry birds and hanging with friends. everything else seems to work fine on the phone. here is what i've tried to correct the problem so far:
-removed angry birds and hanging with friends -removed all apps i've downloaded since i got the phone -did a factory reset
All it does is turn off my phone or it will automatically go back to my home screen. My front camera works only on snapchat. I reset my phone twice and turned it off multiple times, I also took it to the AT&T store and they said theres nothing wrong with it but to just reset my phone. after i reset my phone twice it still doesnt work.
My iPhone 5s (16GB) running on iOS 7.1.1 having a problem with the camera ...
When I first got it from the carrier it was okay and focus was working perfectly, now whenever I try to zoom or focus it just gives a blur vision, it takes a normal pictures of far views tho' ... Â
I didn't try anything else than tapping on my rear camera and it did nothing useful as it still not focusing on stuff ...
Is there any way we can save our settings on the camera app once we close it? It keeps coming back to default settings once i quit the app and re-launch it. I need to re-adjust again especially the mode, ISO, metering mode. etc,
If not, any alternative app which can fiddle with ISO settings?
My z2 cameras rear and front have stopped working for no reason, when I try to open the camera I get ' unfortunately, camera has stopped'. I've done a factory reset and I've also done the software update and nothing!
I have a problem with the camera on my htc one when ever i try to take photos with the camera on the rear i get an ugly black mark on my pictures how can i remove this mark.
My iphone camera stared acting wonky a few weeks back, as in lower resolution and faint lines showing up with an occasional half screen glitch (I'll attach a picture I took of one of these) but it would go away after I focused. Yesterday it stopped working completely though. I open the camera an its just black (no shutter). Front camera still works. On apps like snapchat it opens directly to the front camera and doesn't even give me the option to switch to the rear camera. I've tried everything, I opened the back and the lens isn't cracked from what I could see with a flashlight, it's not dirty, I've turned it on and off several times and force quit the camera app but nothing seems to work! I dot have a warranty and I still have 10 months to go with this phone
Does not work rear camera and a flashlight on the iPhone 5. This front facing camera oabotaet, and when you switch on the back of the screen turns black and the iPhone is not responding. First refused camera, and two days later stopped working flashlight; now its icon in the control pale.
Info: iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.2, This iPhone replaced under warranty
I just replaced the screen on my g4 with a screen I got from futuresupplier.com in china.
After powering up the rear camera is no longer working. The front camera does however it saves the pictures upside down. In snapchat the pic saves correct but in the camera app it saves them upside down. Why is this? Could this be a screen issue?
It may be possible the rear camera was damaged but unlikely. this phone was very easy to work on. Is there anything I can do?
I was taking some picture and suddenly I got a black screen. Then whenever I use the rear camera it gives me only black screen if I tried to take photo it took a while then give me a defect photo that i can't open. It doesn't work for both photos and videos. The front camera works fine. I noticed also that I have an issue with the flash too that when I open it I can't close it except with a restart.  I have tried the following:
1-) force shutdown with power button and volume up 2-) force shutdown with the off key. 3-) factory reset 4-) repair through pc companion.  but unfortunately all doesn't work.
I'm having a problem with my Xperia mini pro front facing camera, I can't switch between the front and the rear camera, the only camera that's working is the rear one, and there's no option for switching it, I just realized this problem today.
I want to know if there is a flashlight app that can use the LED light of the rear camera of the Fire XT. I've tried almost all the apps that show up at the Market but no one seems to work with it.I also need to know if there is possible to make videocalls using the Fire XT front camera. I've tried Skype and others but they can't handle/find the camera.
I have an iPhone 5S and the camera completely stopped working completely.The front camera and rear camera are just black. I've tried turning off the phone and turning it back on, restoring it, I've tried everything and nothing works. I did drop my phone about a month ago and cracked the screen but I don't think that has anything to do with it. Everything else works but my camera. One day my camera worked fine and the next day it didn't and hasn't worked since.
My iphone 5 rear camera won't focus on close objects. This happened a few months after I upgraded it to iOS 7. I'm not entirely sure what the issue is and there are no genius bars nearby to take it to. Later I noticed this tiny black spot in my pictures. Its unlike any 'speck of dust' pictures I'm encountering.Â
I would just like to know whether this is a scratch or a hardware problem or if its something on (not in) the lens that can be removed with cleaning. This is the camera at maximum zoom. The size of the spot increases when I zoom in.
