Samsung Note 3 Camera and Flash Issues

I have a Samsung Note 3 that is only a few months old and the Camera continues to not function correctly.
Android 4.4.2
* Flash will randomly turn off and I will need to restart my device to get it working again.
* Pictures taken with camera are slow and very often out of focus.
The camera flash issue is something most people might not notice until they absolutely need the flash.
The camera taking a long time to focus/take pictures I'm sure a lot of people have seen on a more regular basis.

Hello Tazman4u, a working phone is super important! My apologies for the issues plagueing your device. Please test the phone in safe mode: http://vz.to/1aFxLK8 If issue persists, you will want to backup contacts, pics, and files to perform a hard reset: http://vz.to/1kpmPp0

After instaling the ios 8.2 my camera and flash light stoped to work. I have a iphone 5c.

camera and flash light stoped to work

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

My front camera and flash wont work

Basically I've tryed everything, I've restored the phone from iTunes and my front camera and flash just won't work, any help?

If you've tried "everything" there is nothing more to try. By "everything" does that include restoring as new? If not, restore it as new.
If the problem still exists, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

Is there a life proof case that accommodates the camera and flash on the iphone 5s?

I think stedman1 met to say no 16g has a back camera and flash. The iPod 5 32g and 64g have both front and back cameras, and the back camera does have a flash.

Elite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update

DElite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update <font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="4">Elite Pro CMSS-3D control (on I/O console)no longer controls CMSS-3D.
The only time it works is if the original drivers are installed from the installation CD.
ANY other drivers stop the control on the Elite Pro I/O console from having any effect on CMSS-3D.
Also at one time when I cotrolled volume, CMSS-3D(original drivers), EAX and Crystalizer from the Elite Pro I/O controls then I had on screen display of said control that was being moved(on I/O console).
Now regardless of what drivers are installed, there?are no longer any on screen indicators.
The indicators looked like the ones that show when using the remote controller.
Anyone have any ideas?

Has anyone experienced loss of camera and flash functionality after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2?

I just updated to iOS 6.1.2 and now the shutter on the native camera and other camera apps won't open nor does the flash work. Sometimes it tries to open and crashes, and sometimes it just stays closed. I have restored the phone and there's no change. Anyone else experienced this?

Same happened to me today.
At night I charge my phone and set it to "Flight Mode".
I got up at 6:42am and unpluged the phone at 6:45.
I did not use my phone at all until 10:40am, but the battery sank to 22% until this time.
How can it be fixed? Why is Apple so much more expensive than other phones (wich are better by the way), but it's not working as good as others...?

Video camera and Flash

What should I look for when buying a video camera to record videos that could be used with Flacs?

If you can find a camera that stores the video in flv format that would save you from converting. I'm not a big videofile I do like playing with video in flash but I'm not a serious videographer I just have a very average digital camera and most digital cameras can record video in avi format. It's a simple matter to convert from avi to flv so that works for me.

MOBIOLA WEBCAM and FLASH Issue

Hello,
I've used for a long time Mobiola WEBCAM (app that turns one's iPhone/iPad into a webcam via WIFI) in Skype and video chat sites like Omegle (all done through GOOGLE CHROME), up until yesterday.
As of today, any of my browsers or my Skype applications on my MAC MINI won't recognize my VIdeo FEED.
I do get a connection between the iPhone/iPAD and the MAC MINI, but the VIDEO is not being "fed/transferred" for some reason to the browsers or Skype.
Is it a adobe flash issue? Mac os x issue? I should I proceed?
Technical INFO:
Skype version: 6.15
MAC OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5
iOs: 8.1.1 (on both ipad and iphone)
Google Chrome: 39.0.2171.71 (64-bit)
Thanks a lot,
Chen

Hello MattyEss
From your posted info, you have been thorough in your troubleshooting and research.
Because your iSight works perfectly in every app aside from flash, iSight is not your problem.
Your problem seems to me to be entirely with Flash. Here follow my best suggestions.
(1) If all your software is up to date and working properly otherwise, your best answers for your Flash-specific problem should be from Adobe, whether via Settings/Help, Flash Forum, or personal assistance. You can find links to all of Adobe's comprehensive help offerings here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/
(2) Although I doubt it will help you, if you have a current Flash version installed and want to try one more thing before using Adobe Help, applying the 10.6.6 Combo Update might help you:
• Backup your Mac and turn off Time Machine
• Disconnect peripherals and restart Mac
• Use Disk Utility to repair permissions
• Download and install http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
• Repair permissions again immediately following the restart that finishes the update.
• Test Flash. Reconnect needed peripherals and test again.
(• Turn Time Machine on again when you are satisfied that the update worked.)
Although I don't think the Combo Update is likely to resolve your problem, it costs nothing but a bit of time to find out if it helps your system.
We will watch for your status update.

Scan app not opening and other issues

Hi,
Let me start by saying thank you for your assistance. I have a regular-old 5514 photosmart airprint printer, and it is going crazy. It is just about to be two years old. My computer is a MacBook Pro on 10.9.1 (also two years old). The printer and computer are connected by my Comcast blast wifi. All of my paper and ink are HP. So here's the problem, first it won't print my pictures, not on glossy or regular-it just makes the noise like it is printing but the pages are blank (this never used to be a issue); second, the scan app won't even open on my computer, it just gives me a long page of coded errors or just automatically closes; finally, it often is printing streaky if it does print. There are no updates that I can find on for the app on my computer, and I have zone 2 ink, (I will buy more if this thing starts working), and I have run all the tests and they are completely fine as if nothing is wrong. Please help! If you need additional details I can provide that info.
Thanks,
amycdero

Hi amycdero and welcome to the HP Forum,
I understand that you are having scanning and printing issues after upgrading to Mavericks OS X v10.9.1. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue.
In this document for Mac OS X: Scanning Software Does Not Open or Stops Responding are steps the may help you with your scanning issue.
This document for Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems should help with the streaking printing issue.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know.
Thank you,
I worked on behalf of HP.

Lumia 1520 Camera and SD Issues

I love my Lumia 1520. I'm a heavy user of camera and video. Since the upgrade to 8.1 I have had persistent issues. I have reflashed my device twice and the problems remain.
1. The Nokia Camera app intermittently takes 2 - 4 mins to load. It says "loading" and does some processing. Sometimes it opens, sometimes it doesn't.
2. After the above behavior, Saving the photo takes 60 seconds or more. If I navigate away while the photo is being "saved" the photo is lost.
3. My original SD card, purchased with the phone at the AT&T store, is saying "Scan SD card and fix errors". Saying Yes to this seems to do nothing.
The above behavior is intermittent. For example just now while writing this, I tried the Microsoft Phone camera app and was able to take pictures successfully and without issue. I switched back to the Nokia Camera App, which I prefer, and the app functioned normally.
Yesterday I missed several important shots because the Nokia Camera App wouldn't load quickly (less than 30 seconds in this case) and the moment was long over when the camera was functional.
Appreciate the help! I love this phone!

Hi @UltraVioletIris ,
To troubleshoot this, purchase another SD memory card, a reputable brand from a reputable store. 32GB Kingston Class 10 SDHC cards have worked reliably for me through 3 years and on 4 different Nokia phones, others have other favorites.
Backup everything, to the cloud and/or via USB to a PC.
Menu -> Settings -> storage sense -> SD card -> remove, shut down the phone, remove the old SD card, insert the new SD card straight from the packaging into the phone, start up the phone. The new card must be recognized and ready for use in the phone right away, without error messages or scan for errors notices, otherwise go directly to the second step.
1: If the new SD card works without issues then the original SD card is defective.
2: If the intermittent errors persist then the phone need repair or replacement.
A competent store should acknowledge the warranty claim on either the SD card or the phone after this.
Please let us know how it goes?

[SOLVED]youtube and flash issue

So, I've got a flash issue that only happens on youtube. It looks like this:
It happens every time I open a browser (on both firefox and chrome) and goes away after refreshing the page, but its kinda annoying to refresh the page every time I wanna watch a video. Also when switching to fullscreen the video stays in software video rendering when it should switch to accelerated rendering so I get around 10 fps making the video unwatchable (this doesnt happen with windows on the same hardware).
Other flash websites like vimeo work fine and I can watch vimeo HD videos in fullscreen without any issue.
This started happening when youtube introduced the new black look of their player (it was all fine and dandy before), and its bothering me ever since so I'm now using flashvideoreplacer extension for firefox but I still want flash to work properly so I can use chrome again.
I'm using 64-bit arch, flashplugin from extra (getting the same effect with any other flashplugin from AUR) and EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode is set to 1 in /etc/adobe/mms.conf
Oh and I've tried this on Ubuntu live cd and controls work fine but accelerated video still doesnt work.
Any help would be appreciated.
SOLVED:Graphic problem is resolved after installing new version of flashplugin, but still no HW acceleration.

Satellite L505-13W - FN keys not shown and touchpad issue

Hello everybody,
I have two questions and I will highly appreciate your help.
First, when I got the laptop it used to have a Fn bar that comes down from the top of the screen when I press Fn, it shows all the Fn keys, now it disappeared. I need to get it back, I almost tried everything and nothing is there yet.
Second, the touch pad is not zooming anymore when I apply the 2 fingers in and out, it used to do that before.
My laptop is Satellite L505-13W
Thank you in advance

Hi abdouni,
1. I think the problem is related to Toshiba Value Added Package and Flash Cards Support Utility. Both tools control the FN keys and the Flash Cards appear if you press FN key.
You can download it on official Toshiba website:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
Regarding the installation: First of all remove both tools and restart the notebook. Now install Value Added Package and restart again. Install Flash Cards Support Utility and make one restart. Now the FN keys should work again.
2. This could be related to Value Added Package too So check my posting.
If its not work, reinstall the touchpad driver.

Battery not recognised - and other issues with 867MHz Ti Book

Ok - here`s my story - I wonder if anyone can give me advice
on what to do next.
A week ago I started having trackpad issues with my tibook.
On 2 consecutive mornings the trackpad seemed to have frozen, held down. So that it brought up menus if the mouse was moved over one of the bars at the top of the screen. I wasn`t however, able to `click` on anything. An external
mouse, when plugged in, also didn`t work, though I was able to navigate the display using the keyboard shortcuts.
The first morning this happened, the OS also appeared to reset itself. ie the screen display picture went back to its original state - and all of the applications that i subsequently opened gave me a first time user `welcome` message.However, all of my files/photos/music etc were intact.
When the trackpad was working I backed everything up, ran
the hardware test cd, which came up clear, and called apple. They picked up the computer, which is under
warranty, on Friday, and at the time it was working fine.
I got the computer back yesterday, but unrepaired, and
with a new set of faults. Apple told me that they had checked the computer and had found
some evidence on the logic board, power in and bottom case
of past liquid spillage - but no other problems with the
computer. I don`t deny the liquid spillage ( a few ml of
water), although it
occurred 11 months ago and I have not had any problems with
the computer since 24 hours after the spill.
The state of the computer now that Apple have sent it back
is as follows: The trackpad is working. However, the computer is not recognsing the battery, or the wireless
networking Buffalo pc card. The clock also resets one out
of every 2 or 3 times that I restart the computer. These problems did not occur before I sent the computer to Apple.
Yesterday I erased and reinstalled 10.4 just in case that had
something to do with it - but it has not helped
So - my questions.
1. Could my current problems be to do with the spillage
on the logic board 11 months ago?
2. Could my new problems be to do with something that Apple
did when testing the computer this week?
3. Is there anything else that I should try in order to solve the issues that I`m having with the computer?
4. If it is a logic board problem, can anyone recommend
a UK repair centre that would deal with this cheaply (otherwise i will probably buy a new computer - as this
one is coming up for 3 years)?
Thanks,
Antony

Hi Antony,
1. Could my current problems be to do with the spillage
on the logic board 11 months ago?
Yes. Corrosion occurs over time, and it could have taken 11 months to reach "critcal mass."
2. Could my new problems be to do with something that Apple
did when testing the computer this week?
Theoretically, any time anyone does anything inside your PB, they could have caused additional issues, however, this would not be "normal."
3. Is there anything else that I should try in order to solve the issues that I`m having with the computer?
4. If it is a logic board problem, can anyone recommend a UK repair centre that would deal with this cheaply (otherwise i will probably buy a new computer - as this one is coming up for 3 years)?
Before paying for a new LB or a new PB, try a PMU Reset and Test PB Backup Battery.
