Had the same problem, the only fault and the reason why it happend is a bad wifi connection!
Could ofc be something else, but thats my two cents!

Iphone 6 128 camera freezes...sometimes with a blurred image and sometimes just freezes black. I have to reboot phone to get past the frozen camera screen. It happens several times a day.

I go to take a photo and the camera either shows repetitive blurred image or is just black. The entire iPhone 6 128 is locked in the camera freeze. The only way to use the phone is to shut off power and reboot. Is anyone having this problem on the iPhone 6?

i have been having the same problem today. I have however narrowed it down further: when I am zoooming in on a shot, take the shot, then slide to another mode like from a still shot to video (without uzooming),= freezing. I am taking my iPhone back to apple to see what they say if I don't an answer on the forums here. Not happy with this btw!

Problems with 8.1 update - Iphone 4s - Camera freeze

Did you use iTunes to install the new update and did not use the latest backup afterwards?
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
If yes, you'll have to get your phone checked, in case this is hardware related.

My iphone 4s freezes frequently!!

My iphone 4s freezes frequently!! it has frozen more than 5 times since I got it yesterday! Is anyone facing the same issue? Is there a solution.. yet?

I have the exact same problem. I've had mine for 33 hours, used it really for 29 hours, after charging it, and it's frozen at least 5 times. Just happened again before googling the issue, which led me to this post.
Mine is an AT&T black 32GB iPhone 4S.
It has frozen on the lock screen, in apps (3rd party AND native iOS 5 apps), and done weird things in camera mode (sensing accelerometer movements backwards, pan L+R caused image to tilt up+down on-screen)...
The freezing seems like the digitizer (touch panel) mainly, but it could be that the entire display was frozen. Hard to tell because the screen(s) it was on didnt have any animated content.
Either way, things get normal later, but I'm not too happy. This shouldnt be happening.
Also, twice I've lost almost all my folders on my iPhone, after syncing. At the stage of copying apps from iTunes to my new phone (first time was restorIng from iPhone 4 backup. Second time just syncing after changing some placement of apps on iTunes' side) the apps ended up spread over pages of iPhone "desktop" instead of in their carefully arranged folders.
Not thrilled. Battery life horrible too. Fully charged 8 hrs ago, only used camera somewhat heavily for a half hour, and it's 12% now. 88% drain in exactly 8 hours? Wow. Hopefully that is just a calibration issue. I even have push turned off, as well as ping, and auto brightness. Bluetooth off. I did notice location services are running in the taskbar almost constantly. Wld disable that, but it kind of destroys the function of several iOS 5 enhancements.
So in summary, I also have freezing issues, and other random issues. Along with battery drain. Hope someone knows what's up. Or should I return mine?

My iphone 4s freezes (hangs)

My iphone 4s freezes (hangs) during calls with the time still counting and takes some minutes to restore or I turn it off.

Hi Maor_k007,
This article has some steps you can try for camera app issues:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Camera
Camera isn't functioning
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
Cheers,
- Ari

How can I get the many photos from my iPhone Camera Roll onto my iPad (no OS 7 on either) - thanks!

How can I get all of the photos from my iPhone Camera Roll onto my iPad3? Both are running OS 5x and 6x. Thank you -

Hey David152,
Thanks for the question. First, you’ll want to import the photos to your personal computer:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
After doing so, you can then sync the photos over to your iPad:
iOS: Syncing your data with iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
Also, you can enable Photo Stream so that new photos taken with your iPhone will automatically appear on your iPad. For more information regarding Photo Stream, see this resource:

Thanks,

How can I stop my iPhone from freezing?

My friends iPhone keeps freezing, is there a way of preventing this form happening?

If a reset doesn't help, try these steps as needed, as described in the User Guide, Appendix B:
1. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
2. Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
3. Restore phone in iTunes as new, without using a backup.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware problem in the phone.

Why is my iPhone Camera Roll using 10.0 GB but my Photo Library only using 6.3 GB?

When I look at usage in my iPhone, Camera Roll is using 10.0 GB, but Photo Library is only using 6.3 GB. I do not have Photo Stream enabled. Why the difference?

In my case, Camera Roll is just the pictures taken on my phone and the remainder of the photos on my phone were synced from my computer via iTunes and are under "Photo Library". If you go to Photos and then tap Albums at the bottom right, it will show which pictures are in the Camera Roll. My Camera Roll usage is much smaller than Photo Library as I only have 2 pictures there since I regularly import them to my computer where I have more control and extra backup capability. I then sync back some that I want to also have on the phone.

Iphone camera not recognized in Windows 7

Hello Fellow iPhone users
I am having a problem with the iPhone camera on the iPhone 3g 3.0. I cannot get it to allow me to open up the camera to get the pictures off of it. When I go to Devices and Printers it shows the Apple Mobile Device USB driver and that is installed fine and it works in ITunes, however, it also shows the iPhone but with the yellow triangle and exclamation point. It says that the driver is not installed properly. The status is needs troubleshooting. When I go to properties, it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)". I have tried reinstalling iTunes, unplugging, replugging the iPhone. I have tried a different iPhone (a 3GS with version 3.1.2) with the same results(they both work fine in XP).
I have been trying to get this working for a few hours and have no idea what is wrong. Are there any other drivers I can get? How about reinstalling the usb drivers? This is on an Acer netbook, and it was working with Windows 7 starter, but when I upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, it stopped working. I assume it is a driver issue, but I don't know what other drivers I can use or which ones to change out. Other USB cameras are working fine.
Please let me know if you need any other information.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Windows sometimes won't detect the phone and allow camera/scanner access if there are pics on the iphone not taken by the iphone camera. Email any non camera taken pics to yourself, download them on your computer, then delete the pics from the iphone. When you reconnect your computer it should start the camera/scanner download as usuall.

My iphone came up with that timing circle and just turned off and did not come back on ? even when i charge it now it still wont turn on ,do you know the problem?

If the battery was empty (and it may then take 10 to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

Iphone keeps freezing when I am going to end a call.

My Iphone sometimes freezes when I make phone calls on it. This only happens at the end of the phone call but it is really frustrating because I cannot hang up the call. I called my service provider and they told me it was because of the clear screen protecter I put on my phone. Could this be possible or are they just making this up to get me to quit complaining?

Hello Jennings Castle,
It seems your iPhone is slowing down and not responding frequently. To rectify this issue you may want to consider performing a restore on the device, and then restoring your data from a backup via iCloud or iTunes.
If the issue persists after restoring your backup, you would then want to consider restoring the device and setting it up as new. Below I have linked to article which offers guidance on both of these restore methods:
