I just got my Galaxy S6 on Monday.
I've noticed that the front facing camera on my S6 will not focus on my face if I try to take a picture. The rear camera is wonderful, and I've looked at the front camera on a friend's S6 and it was fine. So it just seems to be my phone. Otherwise, I love it and think it's great.
But what's the deal with my blurry front camera?
So about a month after I received my Galaxy S6, my front camera, the selfie camera, became very blurry. There is a small circle in the middle of the screen that is crisp and clear. The rear camera is as amazing as it should be. I don't have a screen protector covering it and it's been cleaned multiple times. I've tried everything and looked up everything I could.
View 1 Replies View Relatedboth my two Nexus 5s are affected (India - D821 Models) and one of them is pretty bad and consistent with blurry images. Running stock..Tried factory reset, clean install from factory images, cache clearing, third party apps, safe mode to no avail. This is pretty disappointing. Visited the LG service center a couple of times, they advised to change the rear camera cover which I did but the results are the same. I have read changing the camera also has not given any luck, so havent tried that yet..but what surprises me that two devices (similar age circa 24 months) have been affected at the same time, so I am thinking its more an issue with software but not hardware. Or is the hardware failure programmed for 24 months or something..?? I am trying Kitkat on one of the camera's now, so will post the result.
One thing I am certain is that recently the battery for both phones has been changed and I positively think the issue has been noticed afterwards..any clues?
My front camera is blurry, can't focus properly.
View 10 Replies View RelatedSo I got my Icon over the weekend and I've been playing around with it and I have a few questions about the camera settings. I was taking some pictures, and noticed that sometimes they were a bit blurry/not focused. I cannot tell if its me or the camera. Also, when I zoom in on the pictures, I feel that it looks more grainy than they should.
Also, side note - has power, volume and camera button feel slightly wiggly/loose? I noticed the side buttons on my Icon are not as firm as they were on my 928.
Its seems like a lot of pictures that I take with my Razor seem to be blurry? On my other phones there were resolution settings, but I have not found any.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was just wondering, does your S5 has shaky camera too ? When im indoors and take photos, when i zoom in they are almost all blurry. And it was not so low lighted situation. It was pretty bright actually. Outdoors it seems fine but indoors it's has more noise then my S3. Is this normal ? And front camera is definitely better on S3.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI haven't had this problem till yesterday, and I'm getting very angry by it not because I love taking selfies, but cause I bought this phone for $600+ and a month later its a defect?
How is this possible? I wiped the cache in the power+VUP+Home screen, I went to camera app settings and cleared data/cache, I don't know how it got there and it's VERY annoying
The ONLY thing I can think of his it got there due to heat, I went to the pool and I left my phone in my wife's purse under a shirt so the son wouldn't hit it but I guess it was still hot inside. because for a month and a half I never had the dot. and yes I've read about the "only shows in low light" ive taken plenty of low light shots and never saw if there prior to 2 days ago
I've had my S6 for nearly two weeks now, and I've noticed a strange trend when taking photos with the front camera. Things that are relatively up close such as my face end up being a tad blurry whereas everything in the background is nice, sharp, and detailed. No matter how I position my face in the shot, despite it recognizing my face, it just won't bring it into focus. After a few more shots, it doesn't look like the front is auto-focusing at all. I've checked all of the camera settings, and everything is defaulted except for Beauty mode which I have set to 0. How possible is it that this is a hardware defect?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen you have the front facing camera on with no effect, it is very laggy and choopy , however when you add an effect like black and white for instance, the picture is much smoother?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI believe this may be an issue on all devices. It seems like the issue is prominent when taking close up photos. The issue affects the top ~15% of the screen and the bottom ~15%. The only purpose of having a front facing camera is for the ease of selfie shots.

My rear facing is fine and my screen it self is fine. Why this is happening. It's even on snapchat and my stock camera app.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI got the galaxy s6 edge about 2 weeks ago, and noticed that when I tried to take pictures with my front camera the pictures look very weird. Like everything is too bright and my face looks like i have a ton of make up on or i have been airbrushed or something. It is just very weird. I have tried turning the beauty setting to zero and turning HDR off. Still has not fixed the problem.
The back camera does not have this issue, it takes nice pictures. Also, my s4 front camera did not do this, it was a very good front camera. So i feel like the s6 front camera is a downgrade, what happened?
When I look a user manuals or advice columns for my S6 I see that I am missing many camera function/settings. I have only a flash, mode, alternate front or back, camera, video buttons. Is this something I can change?
View 13 Replies View RelatedSo I'm not sure what happened but my iPhone pics are horribly blurry and, well, really crappy.I tried cleaning the lens (even with glass cleaner) but the pics are still crappy. Is there an easy way to replace the little lens on the case?As an aside, the back of the iPhone has a little crack down near the charge/USB port so if this means replacing the whole back as one piece I just might do it.
