IPhone :: Why Cause Front Camera Flicker While In Use Whether Facetime, Camera Or Skype
Jun 23, 2012
It flickers like an old television, a fade of black. Most of the time it works fine but there are random times it flickers, does this happen to anyone other than me? or my iPhone is defective, Anyone perhaps have an idea what causes this flickering* I facetime and skype video alot, also the iPhone gets warm very close to hot point while using facetime or skype videocalls.
The new Facetime looks cool, the only problem is you can only do it with another ip4 owner (and over wifi, at that). What are the chances that Apple will allow a Skype app that will utilize the FF camera? Even if it's only over wifi, it would make the FF camera much more useful.
I know this may be speculation but this may be the deal breaker for me to get the next phone. I have a child off to college pretty soon who uses skype video regularly with her friends and I will assume with me also. I have actually gotten the skype video to work on my little Nokia N79 fairly well and would like my next phone to also have this capability so I can talk with her when she's away but I am not near my computer.
I am using Android 4.0.4 when I make a video call with Skype I can't switch on the front camera. I can switch the camera on in normal camera after pressing mode for a few secs though but not in Skype.
Will apps such as Skype be able to utilize the functions of the cameras for video calling? I am getting the iPhone 4 and my dad and uncle have Skype and we video chat all the time. So will apps like this be able to use the cameras in development? Discuss.
As we know it is not possible to use the E7 camera less than 1m distance, would it be possible to use the front camera? Especially for business cards and then scan it?
Anybody else feel the need for Some front facing camera apps? Ichatr got removed mainly due to the perverts showing themselves , its a real shame as i had some very funny moments on there
Anybody got good uses for this besides facetime and dumb chatroulette references? I never use face time, and am trying to find at least some use for this but seriously have never used it except for a few times to just test it out or show off.
I have an iPhone 4s from about 6 months, and I noticed some problems using the front camera; sometimes when I open the camera app, the screen becomes all black, and I must close the app as to avoid the problem (temporaneously). Besides there' s another problem: sometimes the camera seems to work normally, but suddenly some black stripes appear on the screen, moving from the right side of the screen to the left one (like a sort on "interferences"). The real mystery is that the problem isn't permanent, it shows only in some occasions, and I really cannot understand the reason of it.
.flashlight and front camera will not come on reverse camera will still work but front camera shows black screen. tried a reset on phone and still nothing
Info: iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2, tried a reset on phone
Think it will work with normal phone calls? Or do you think it will only be used with specific apps?Would be cool to call a friend that also has an iphone and select a button for speaker phone/camera and start video conferencing.
Is it 300k megapixel? just like any other front-camera attached cellular phones?Because if it's more than 300k, such as 1.3mp then it would be super nice to take a self-camera as well I think.
For about 3 months, my front camera won't open. My screen gets frozen when I've tried to switch to it from my back camera. Also, when I try to use my front camera on Skype, noting pops up.
Info: iPhone 4 (8GB), iOS 5.1, I've keep an Otterbox on Forever
i am using iPhone 4, the camera functioning okay but when i am changing to front camera its not functioning the camera getting struck until i change to back camera.
the rear camera works fine, but when i select the front camera the shutter remains closed and never opens.
if i open the front camera frst, the rear doesnt open till i restart it i have restored, set up as new iphone and updated the sftware, but the front camera shutter doesnt open and remains closed, i have read online of others having this problem and some suggest changing the camera, which i got someone to do, yet the same fault remains
When i go in to my camera app and try to change to front facing camera the app freezes. It does not work on snapchat or any other apps that use a camera. It has been like this for 3 months at least.
