Iphone 5 is 1 day camera not working shutter frozen.

My iphone 5 is 1 day camera not working shutter frozen, and i try restore restart but not use. now I took it to my carrier and now I have to wait 14 days to have my phone ,I feel bad about this.

That is NOT unfreezing it for me. It returns to home page now after about thirty seconds of total freeze (worsened from last night).
And now some really strange things are adding to it, like when waking and sliding to unlock, the tab is sticking for several seconds to the right before opening home page. Nobody seems to know whether apps are saved in sync for easy load following a restore. (??)
Edit to add: when I try the hard reset, it simply prompts whether I want to shut down, so I guess yes, it does finally help to exit the frozen shutter, though as I said, it releases after about thirty seconds.
One more edit: I turned my iphone off and restarted it to find, knock on wood, that the camera's working now. Will see where it goes from here.

  • IPhone 6 Plus front camera not working or with lines and static?

    My iPhone 6 Plus front camera is having problems. Sometimes it doesn't work at all and the camera app freezes. Sometimes it works fine for a little while and sometimes it shows multi color static or lines.
    I've tried:
    Restoring from phone (without restoring backup)
    Restoring from iTunes (without restoring backup)
    Deleting ispw and re-downloading iOS 8.1.1 then restore
    The phone is less than 2 months old. I noticed it acting weird a week or so after I bought it but thought it was just software. At first it wouldn't work when using the camera app but worked fine using facetime. Now it acts up regardless.
    Any advice or opinions will be much appreciated.

    I have always used the iPhone's LED flashing alert to notify me when I get a call or text message. While I was on iOS 8 Beta 2-4 it was working fine. I did a clean install of the complete iOS 8 release and ever since then, the flash alert doesn't work.
    Sometimes it will work on incoming calls, but will not work on text messages. I've tried soft/hard rebooting, clean wipe and fresh installs, and pretty much anything in between. Now, today I got my 128GB Gold ATT iPhone 6 Plus, and it's the same thing. Updated to iOS 8.1, reset everything/deleted all contents and settings. Both fresh install, and iCloud backups and still no alerts on text messages, but now I get them on calls. I tried my girls ATT 128GB iPhone 6 and she has the same problem too. My old phone was a 64GB iPhone 5S and hers was a 32GB iPhone 5. Everything was good until the official release of iOS 8.
    I've tried searching for related issues, and haven't found anything since 2011 with a quick Google search. Most links just tell you how to turn the flash alert on but no new issues. All of my devices are on iOS 8.1.  I gave my father my 64GB 5S with a clean install and he still has the issue as well. So, that makes my iPhone 6 Plus, my girls iPhone 6 and my fathers iPhone 5S not flashing LED on messages and sometimes calls. There aren't any custom vibrations enabled on any if the devices. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is it a known bug or am I just not doing something right here? i never had an issue before the iOS 8 release. Any help would be appreciated.
    Are you a developer?  IF so try asking in the developer forum.

  • Camera not working, shutter not open

    Hello, I need help, my camera does not work, the shutter does not open, and then restart your computer and restore settings but still not working, thank you provide me a solution, thanks.

    Try closing the Camera app via the taskbar and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't fix it then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Iphone 6 16gb rear camera not working

    Starting today I went to use my camera and all I get is a black screen. When I switch it to the front camera it works but as soon as I switch it back the app freezes. I've tried all solutions and nothing seems to work. I hear if I bring it to an Apple Store they will replace it but the problem is I DONT HAVE APPLE CARE. Will they still replace it without it?

    They will replace it, your device is still covered by the one year warranty:

    one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working .  May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

    The front-facing camera is available for use even without FaceTime.  If you are having issues with your front-facing camera, I suggest troubleshooting the issue:
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6 older, hold down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Will apple replace phone for iphone 5 camera not working if older than 12 months.

    Iphone 5 main camera not working on iphone 5. Many folks comment on apple replacing phone.  Mine is older than 12 months.  Will they still replace phone?

    No. You can get an out of warranty replacement or buy a new phone. A an out if warranty replacement will be cheaper than buying a new one.

  • Iphone 6 backup to iCloud not working

    Initially I had the issue where my phone was restoring from iCloud for 2 weeks and never finished. I was unable to do the upgrade to 8.1 because of this, so I canceled the restore and tried to do a backup to iCloud. I let it run (Estimating time remaining...) for a long time, like 30 minutes or something. Each time I tried this it would error off saying it couldn't finish the operation. One time it said it was going to take 2 days to complete the backup, but then it errors off as just mentioned. So I did a google search for "iPhone 6 backup to iCloud not working" and found a link to the forums for the incessant restore issue, it said to do a manual backup through iTunes, then immediately do a restore, then do the upgrade to 8.1.
    However, I still have the issue of the backup taking forever.
    Anyone encounter this issue and find a fix?
    Many thanks.

    I suggest you contact Apple Support.

  • Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Sighhhh, wasted so much time yesterday and today going around Sony centre and then carphone warehouse. They told me to come back after Easter.
    I came home, banged the phone against the wall and it worked.
    Turned out that mic was working on loud speaker and when using headphones so I thought that the secondary mic is working and the main one (placed with the speakers) isn't. So I banged that part against the wall slightly (in plastic case to prevent scratches) then put the phone underwater, waited for it to dry and now it's working. Idk how well and if it's of perfect quality again but people can hear me well.

  • Camera not work ipad 4generation before ios8 update

    Camera not work ipad 4generation before ios8 update
    PLease help

    Hi Hellside,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there is an issue with the camera on your iPad. The article linked below has a lot of great troubleshooting suggestions for a similar issue on an iPhone but the suggestions should resolve the issue with your iPad too.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    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.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-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. You can also tap to readjust focus while 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.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    I hope this helps.
