IPhone4 Rear Camera Problem

I got my iPhone 4 yesterday but the camera shutter doesn't open at all. Anybody having the sam issue? And how can I fix it? I have already restored my iPhone and it doesn't work.
Thanks,

I received my Iphone 4 Friday and I have the same issue. I went to the Apple Store and I had an appt. Their customer support ***. They told me they would have to reorder a new one. They also told me if I wanted shipped to then I could call Apple Care again and they could help me. Except they failed to mention there is a cost to mail the phone and they put a $599.00 on hold in my credit care till they receive the broken phone back. I am at a loss for time and my desire to deal with Apple is long gone. Good luck in getting your phone replaced without having to pay a second time. Its not as easy as you said no questions asked!

  • HT1766 Rear camera problem

    Hello, I was womdering if you could tell me what is wrong with my camera. My front camera works fine, but the rear camera is black and freezes when I try to switch the cameras from front to rear. I have not dropped my iPhone or done anything to hurt it. I have just updated to the newest verizon of iOS 7.6 this week.

  • All Iphone4 32gbs have Camera problems????

    many iphone 16gbs seem ok. But All my friends who got iphone4 32gb have camera problems!!!!
    also my one is iphone4 32gb and camera shutter doesn't open at all...
    wot about yours??
    i need your opinions..?

    My iPhone 4 32 Gb works just fine. No issue with antenna and drop calls, proximity sensor, bluetooth headsets, wi-fi, yellow spot on the screen, bad white balance, breaking glass when throwing the phone (because I don't throw it) and it still haven't caught on fire. Oh yes...the camera also work fine (both of them).
    And one quick question : what should be the difference in the camera between the 16Gb and the 32 GB that will make that all the 32 Gb phones only are defective?

  • [ Helix ] Rear camera picture malformed, but video is fine. Software or hardware problem?

    Hi, it's is my first post here, so  welcome everyone
    I've just purchased Helix 3702-3LO (i7, 8GB, 128GB, Win8Pro 64bits upgraded to 8.1) and today found some problem. Pictures taken by rear camera are malformed. The picture looks like:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5MpmFU1Jqq8Ym5ucGt6WDhUQXM/edit?usp=sharing
    But at the same time video taken by the camera is perfect. So how do you think, is it software or hardware problem?
    I've already tried refresh drivers, update what was possible to update, but still no imrovement, I still want avoid sending the computer to the service. It looks like some part of the image (bottom) is paste in the middle. Looks like codecs problem??? 
    But now I'm not sure if it is only software problem or may be some how hardware (video is recorded is fine).
    Thank you.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you kroe, you were absolutely right!
    I rolled back the driver and it's fixed now, I should think about this in first place! :-)
    "Device manager" > "Imaging devices" > "AIT Webcam" > Right Mouse Button Menu > "Properties" > Tab "Driver" > "Roll back driver" > OK
    and now I have, like you wrote, "Integrated Rear Camera" instead of "AIT Webcam"
    And the photos are perfect now :-) Thx again.
    So.. problem SOLVED! Thx

    I have iphone 5, after upgrading it to iOS7, front is working find unfortunately rear camera became blurred, what is the best way to fix this? Looking forward to the best solution of this problem.

    WORKAROUND FOUND ! Download and install "Awesome Camera" app and take a picture with that app. After 1-2 seconds of standby, it will work. Then you can go back to default Camera app which would work again.Please let me know

  • Intermittent problem with rear camera iPhone 4

    Rear camera had been working fine (phone is a couple of months old) opened the camera app yesterday, and the shutter opens to a black screen. I could switch to the front camera which worked fine. I was thinking about taking it to the apple store, but today the camera is working again.

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • 5th generation ipod touch rear camera no longer works; have tried everything; now what?

    so my ipod touch 5th generation's rear camera hasnt been working for a month or two. the front camera works, but once I click on the button to switch to the rear, it freezes. i have tried resetting my settings, backing up and restoring my ipod, force closed and moved the camera app, etc. also, when i use facetime or snapchat, the rear camera option doesnt even show up. Online ive read that this is a hardware problem, so i was wondering what i could do or where i could take it to be fixed? and if i did take it in, how much would repair cost? thanks in advance.
    also, there is no apple store around me within like two and a half hours. i bought this from best buy in 2013, could i take it there or can i send it in to apple?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • My rear camera on my iphone 5 no longer works in camera app after ios 7 install

    My iphone 5 updated to ios 7 and the new camera app no longer works. Sometimes I can get the front camera to
    Show on the app. But the rear camera just shows black. And it won't switch bewtween the two cameras at all
    Sometimes. What could this be?

    I got the same problem with my iphone 5 rear camera and tried the solutions suggested here but it did not work.
    The camera application which came with ios7 is frozen as soon as it opens. I does not take photos or switch between cameras.
    I have been able to use the front camera with Snapseed, QR reader . however no application is able to open my rear camera.
    I am not sure but  it can related with the application updates either ios7 or the camera applications already installed on our iphone. Uninstalling those apps which has access to camera and rebooting may solve the problem. This is just an idea !

  • Help!!! iphone 5 rear camera blurry after iOS 7.0.6 update.

    Help!!!! I just updated my iPhone 5 software to iOS 7.0.6. I realized that my rear camera became blurry. It won't focus even if I tap in the middle. There are no physical problems with the camera itself. I checked. Plus the camera is quite fine when the object is near but it can't focus on objects 2 feet away. What should I do?

    If the issue reappears, try the same steps.  Also, you can try restoring as a new device: iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    If the wi-fi remains greyed out, your device needs service.
    If within warranty, it should be free.
    If not, it will probably cost $199 USD + tax.

  • Macbook 2.1 full freezing after I use rear camera on iPhone 4G.

    Hi

    I don't understand, why fade out my text, but I replace it:)
    My problem is, if I use rear camera on iPhone 4G, then the macbook is full freezing.
    Only what I can do, I need push power button
    I looked forward OSX 10.6.5 and iOS 4.2.1 but nothing happened.
    I switched off/on facetime, restarted mobile, but nothing happened.
    This is a serious fault.
    If somebody answer me, I can insert my system log file next again.

  • My Rear Camera shows a crack when taking photos

    I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 8.2. When I take photos with the rear camera, there is is crack or line in the upper right corner of every zoomed out photo I take. Can anyone help me out on what could be the problem? I took apart the iPhone 5 and cleaned the camera compartment from inside. There are no cracks on the sapphire lens cover.
    I have attached a link to a photo that I took.

    Sounds like a hardware failure to me. I'm sure you've checked the obvious, like something covering the lens.
