Hi, i wanted to ask if anyone is having a similar bug like mine after getting the android 10 update (i am on europe rom).
What the problem is, every time i try to take a picture of something using the flashlight, and focusing on something, the picture comes out so dark. If i use the "torch" mode the pic comes out normal. I'll attach two pictures down below, one with the flashlight on (firing just when taking the pic) and one with the torch which is so much brighter and you can tell the difference.
It seems a timing error. Whether the flashlight flashes light before the picture is captured or after the picture is captured. Try using a different camera app or reset the phone.

Yeah i noticed that too, it only happens on the stock cam app. The flash seems to fire a bit early but i dunno if there's a fix for that or if i can replace my cam app with an older or newer cam so that bug can be fixed
I updated to the last available version with android 10 (europe), the stock app with automatic flash works as expected.
But I use usually the open source camera -> open camera.
Maybe reset the camera app or try open camera ?
I've been having camera issues lately after the update too mine are a little worse though. The quality has reduced severely and it seems worse with hdr on.

So apparently it's not just me, have you tried doing a factory reset after the update? I plan to do that but I'm so lazy and i dunno if it's even gonna work ? so for now our chance is just wait for miui 12 maybe the new cam app will get it all fixed

I have not updated yet. Reason:
I installed orangefox recovery and removed some system apps. And now when I receive update, the update file downloads but does not install. I may flash fastboot rom, but I am still considering to continue using unbloated MIUI 11.
Anyway, if it is a common problem it will be fixed very soon. Because when it is common a large group of device is affected. So a fix update will/may release fast. I remember xperia p had same problem. It was fixed by an update.
Oh i really hope so, this is really annoying anyways

Other than the camera bug, I'm pleased with the new update. My phone does seem to perform a little better than before.

Custom Rom: TripnMIUI 1.0 Final
Independent control of flash function not working on device. Attempted to install a third party camera app "camera 360". App notifies "sorry your cell phone has no flashing" when flash option is selected.
Utilizing MIUI camera to configure flash provides two options. Auto and On. Yet neither work.
Does anyone have any information or a possible solution?
Thanks for reading.

try vignette for flash.
vignette isn't working. with the MIUI camera the dev's instructions are to switch off full screen due to some glitch that causes no picture. when i load this camera application i receive the same glitch, can not see picture what so ever.
i explored the settings in the app and there is no appropriate selection to be able to switch as i would with the MIUI camera. it seems this app isn't compatible with the rom.
I use the LED light app and just leave the light on while I take a pic >.>...
LED app like Torch? to activate the camera flash like an independent flash light?
Tried Torch, the app crashed. So I uninstalled it. Currently searching the market to see if anything is going to be compatible here. There must be some sort of fix as this flash problem wasnt listed in the dev's build release notes.
I use this https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.picolyl.led_light
even has a widget I put on my desktop... walk around my house at night like this...
i was hoping that would work
but it didn't
app installs. app loads. when i turn on the flash, nothing happens
leads me to assume there has to be a patch, because again, it must be rom related
Vignette seems to work for me. I have it set to auto flash and it comes on when I touch the screen.
Or is the point that you would rather use the miui camera?
Sorry if I misunderstood
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
when i start up Vignette i have absolutely no picture. just distorted colored stripes across the screen.
the miui camera was indicated as being faulty in full screen mode. within the release notes there were instructions to open the settings within MIUI camera and change off of full screen to resolve the picture issue.
as per developers ROM documentation:
Known bugs:
- Phone reboots when you press exit in Root Explorer (not included)
- MIUI camera has messed up screen (fix this by going into miui cam settings and turn off "Full screen"
that issue is the exact same thing that I am experiencing in Vignette. with MIUI camera i was able to make the appropriate change and restore full picture.
with Vignette no option presents itself to enable me to do this. i dont necessarily care which app i use to take pictures as long as i am able to operate the flash and sustain full camera functionality.
both miui camera the stock camera are not functioning with flash for me. i have set to automatic within miui camera and even still the flash fails to initiate.
even if i switch to "ON" within MIUI camera that doesn't work either. the stock camera app has no flash control option in its settings. and so far the third party apps i've tried such as "camera 360" resulted in a message saying my phone doesn't have flash. and Vignette was not resolving picture. i was unable to locate a respective setting similar to that of MIUI camera to initiate a functional view. therefore was forced to uninstall
Attached a temporary solution
Slightly improved brightness over my original: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996973
I'm working on flashlight fix to work with vignette. Hopefully Trip will fix it too in next release
nice thanks. would this apk just manually be pushed through ADB to sytem/apps? or do i have the option to install straight from SD?
im going to go ahead and try this out. thanks again.
side note: is it correct to assume a pending update for this build considering it was released as a "final version" it would be nice to see some fixes implemented to further stability and full functionality.
another issue ive experienced over the past couple days back and forth between this rom is particularly when files are in midst of being transferred to sd card. but not limited to. the phone seems to force reboot. and this does not cease. case in point. i initiated sd mounting and upon hitting confirm, phone went into power cycle.
update: *Torch works perfect. I hit thanks

I have bought the depreciated version and even though it works great on latest MIUI, flash still doesn't work.
so .... like you said .... depreciated?
turns out it doesn't work after all. wonderful
i can understand the picture part working, unlike the demo. but if flash doesn't work. it doesn't turn out to be an all in one solution. flash is the issue here. i can utilize either miui or even stock camera for the pictures. its the flash that is giving complications.

Use the torch app with it
i guess the torch app will suffice. its going to have to because every app ive tried doesn't recognize the flash function. its a smart work around.
i noticed an update pack released for the rom hopefully flash will be noted for a fix sometime in the future. thanks everyone

I don't think it worked with any roms did it? I don't even think it worked with stock
your right. it never worked. with anything.
although i must say i never tested it on 6.1.3 rom release. but with stock it was working for me. at least it would turn on
Hi
Can anyone else run the stock Camera app after the Jellybean update?
There's a yellow box around the shutter and when I go to take a photo the application crashes.
Other camera apps work fine!

I've been using it, and it works fine with me. Do you have any apps that may affect the camera? And was it working fine with ICS?
No extra apps, yes it did work in ICS.
I'm hoping someone with a working camera in JB can dump the firmware for me

I updated Insert Coin Rom to 3.0 and my camera hasnt worked since. updated tuesday, and only went to use my camera yesterday and discovered it freezes on opening. flashlight toggle in my notifications bar also causes system UI to crash.
switched to Anonorom this morning, factory reset, restored apps + data from Titanium Pro, same thing. camera and flashlight both crash my system UI.
which sucks cause previous IC rom was great.
any help would be awesome. otherwise i guess i'm either flashing rom's or doing a full factory reset and restoring manually i guess..

Followed by flash stock firmware .

Also started having this issue last week, more than a month since I got my 4.1.2 OTA from T-mobile.
From what I experienced, both incidents when I was out, were in low light, and after I enabled low light mode within the camera controls.
There would be a freeze, then app crash returning to the homescreen.
There doesn't seem to be a lot of info on this, and I'd really like to know what is causing it.
I have a feeling it is a setting in the touchwiz camera... because other camera apps (vignette, eyeem) launch the camera fine and without issue.

I started getting the freeze issue a few weeks back. I removed the SD card and tried the phone without it and it was fine again. Wiped the SD card and put it back in and all is working again. Hope this helps some of you.
After updating to PLK-UL00C675B330, the final build of Marshmallow, the video camera is not working. As soon as I start the Video Camera, I get a message that Com.google..... is using the microphone and Camera is not able to record audio. And then the recording stops after 6 seconds. On playing back that 6 seconds video, I do see that sound is captured (though fainter than expected).
Any solutions / ideas please ? Any of you also facing the same issue ?

Probably due to Google now. Go to Google now settings and deactivate 'from any screen' option. I think it should work.

It´s not the MM final build. It´s written everywhere. Still have a decent amount of bugs.
Try to clear the cache of Google apps and camera as while you´re into it.
Battery problems
B330 needs an update
Fast charging is no more available.
Now it's taking years to get charged.
Battery is draining too quickly.
However on the brighter side
UI is fast and snappier.

After the update, the fingerprint scanner sometimes doesn't respond or has delayed response while recognizing the fingerprint and while notification slide down and recent apps gesture . Anyone facing the same or has a solution to this please reply?

Though after the marshmallow update the fingerprint scanner has become abit slower than before it has never been unresponsive. I'll suggest you to delete your previous finger print scans and set them again. The update has even enabled the option of unlocking the apps we choose through fingerprint id which I guess wasn't there before.
Rest assured I seriously feel there would be an update to fasten the responsiveness as well.
The worst part of the update is the removal of live moving themes which was one of the best features of the phone.

Yeah even i faced the same issue.
Its only the second time it is recognizing tge fingerprint once its been locked fot fee seconds.
Battery is taking almost 2.15hrs to charge which used to take 1.15 in previous version.
I reached the honor forum they said things are bring looked into,which would be rectified in follow on update,which would surely take time i believe.
I rooted my phone not long back (maybe like a month ago?). I put it back to stock firmware, relocked bootloader with flashtool, got all the new updates, everything was fine.
I then try to use snapchats front camera, and its extremely sluggish. So I use the standard sony camera app to see if it was snapchat, and the camera was working just fine.
When I use the camera sometimes, there are green lines accross the screen. I must of factory reset it like 10 times now? Tried using Xperia Companion, no luck
Also, the official camera app, when switching to record, it lags out completely, and just wont move for like 15 seconds, and then another 15 seconds.
I've tried contacting sony via web chat, and they told me it was a hardware issue. I was thinking the camera is fine in the stock app, so why is it doing it in third party apps like snapchat?
But then again, I am experiencing issues with the recording function in the official camera app.
I'm not sure if I didnt flash it correctly or something, or used a really bad rom?
I've reset it multiple times though. Can anyone suggest anything? I'm selling it soon due to a new phone and didnt want to list it with "camera is broke"
Many thanks.
Matthew
If they it's he issue, why dont just send to repair center? If you used a pc company then it should install right version.

I just don't see how it could be hardware? Unless I've dropped it badly which I haven't?
hello I have the same problem when using video recording, it freezes. When using other software like Camera HD, at the beginning I thought it was better, but 2 minutes later it freezes, and it s slow... Did you have the same problem on Lollipop ?
I'm on marshmallow mate. 6.0.1
32.2.A.0.253
But yeah, that's what I get
Me too, my phone was root too, I did unroot and relock the bootloader. Perhaps is it the root ? If you didn't have problems before maybe its a software issue
But wouldn't resetting it and everything fix the issue?
last thing to do is to rollback to lollipop and see if camera works
Hii Friends , This problem can be fixed easily. Will Post The Instructions Very Soon. Thank You!

Always Welcome!!
For context, I'm running lineage (19-20220824-NIGHTLY-dre) and this issue happens on every single camera app I've tried.
If I record a video let's say like a 2 second recording and then go to open that video the clip suddenly is an hour long with basically the entire hour being a single frame and the last 2 seconds being the 2 seconds I recorded. What's even weirder is the audio from the video plays during the first two seconds and then doesn't for the remaining time. Overall really weird and frustrating and I've spent hours trying to figure out what would cause this to no avail. Additional most gallery apps won't even open the videos recording and no pc can open them either. Any ideas?
Have you tried update Lineage? It's most recent update is 9/21 it looks like your about 4 updates behind. Not sure if it'll fix your issue though as I did not use camera while using Lineage and have since gone back to stock due to a display bug.
Edit: If you do want to update it SHOULD be fairly simple. You just go to settings>system>update and it should pull whatever the newest update it and install in the background. Note that even though it shouldn't cause any errors, there's always the chance it will so just be aware and ready.

You got a debloat list or something you follow? I could go for that see if smooths stock a little when playing pokemon go.
I have the latest LIneage, with the same problem, and am completely lost with what it could be. Recording videos in Snapchat works normally, but the stock camera, GCAM, and the GrapheneOS camera all have this issue, probably because they all use the Camera2 API.
I encountered this problem today but the uploads on Google photos came out correct (when I 'free up space' )
I am having this issue as well, just checking to see if anybody might have discovered anything
