My Back camera stuck on shutter mode

I just my iPhone 4 and after taking a couple of pictures my camera got stuck on shutter mode, I tried hard reset turn off, restore I have a 4.3.3 iOS please help me, I'm quite sure by now that this is an hardware problem.

  • Help front facing camera stuck on shutter

    Ok I've seen this alot on here but I havnt been able to figure it out I've reset all the way to factory and I've updated but nothing works my shutter is just stuck closed and the option to switch to video from camera keeps flickering

    Same for me, this is a shame. I have been searching for fixes for moths now. There are tons of people with the same problem but Apple does not say a thing about it. The problem came with an software update for me and since then, every restore method there is failed for me. Apple really should make a move here...

  • IPhone 5 Camera stuck in Macro mode

    The camera on the back of the phone suddenly stopped working. When I open the app the picture is in focus for about a second then everything is blurry except when I hold the phone close to an object. I have restarted the phone and reset it but it is still not working. I've tried other photo apps and they don't seem to be working either... I've only had the phone for about 2 and a half months.  I have no idea what is going on.

    Try a Restore of the iPhone with current iTunes on your computer. See if fixed. If still problem, make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

  • IPhone4 camera stuck with shutter closed

    When I open the camera app, the camera shutter stays closed and the controls are completely locked up. Can't even switch to video. The "Camera Genius" app works except when I try to switch to the front facing camera, then the whole thing locks up and doesn't work at all. Camera also works fine with the "Pano" app. I prefer the simplicity of the camera app that comes with the phone. Any suggestions to fix this would be appreciated.

    Standard troubleshooting steps in order are as follows:
    Power your iPhone off and on.
    An iPhone reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release.
    Restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup.
    Restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
    If no change after the last step, your iPhone has a hardware problem. You can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.
    If the problem is resolved after any of these steps but returns after using one of the 3rd party camera apps that you are using, I would stop using that app and contact the app developer.

  • Hi my iphone 3g is stuck in recovery mode and now has the apple logo with the loading bar at the bottom it wont switch off! what do i need to do to get it back to normal

    hi my iphone is stuck in recovery mode and when i went to swtich the phone off the apple logo came up and the loading bar at the bottom. what do i need to do to get it back to normal.

    If you want to start the Restore Process over then follow these simple steps. Restart computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click Restore button of iTunes.

    Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to  one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
    Thanks again, Sandra2474.

  • I have updated to IOS 6, the App store won't work, is stuck in update mode for 1 day and the battery now goes flat in 3 hrs without use. Can I go back to IOS 5?

    Hi, I was forced to upgrade to IOS 6 due to a restore.
    Since the upgrade, I have lost information, the App store is stuck in update mode, my battery drains in hours and many more problems.
    Is there a way to go back to the VERY RELIABLE IOS 5? This phone is nearly useless now.
    Thanks

    Just FYI - the situation is resolved.  I downloaded the new snow leopard 10.6.8 update for safari and now itunes works.  I have no idea what that has to do with anything - but I saw it on another forum and it actually worked.

  • How can i get my bookmarks back, after mozilla crashed and got stuck in safe mode?

    I was using mozilla as usual when suddenly it crashed and then my computer turned off. i restarted it and said it had gone into safe mode. i tried to restart the computer again but it was stuck on safe mode.
    The bad part is that all my bookmarks are gone and apparently there is no way of getting them back.

  • TS3274 My Ipad display is stuck on portrait mode. I tried the toggle switch, turning off and restart and just now backed up into Itunes and restored and still is stuck on portrait mode and it won't flip to landscape mode. Is this a hardware problem?

    Has lock rotation been accidentally enabled within the control centre? If you swipe up the screen is there a circle with a lock symbol & if so is is greyed out or white - if white it is enabled.

  • HT1414 My new ipad mini does not allow me to switch between modes in the built-camera app. It is stuck on video mode. Can anyone advise?

    My new ipad mini will not let me switch between modes when using the built in camera app. It is stuck on Video mode. I am unable to take photos, although I could when I first used it. Could this be a fault with the pad or with the new 7.0.4 update? Can anyone help please?

    Have you tried to force quit the app? Double tap the home button. Scroll sideways if needed to see the icon and preview for the camera app. Flip that app up and off the screen to close it then single tap on the home screen preview or single tap the home button to exit the mode.
    Try your camera app again and see if you can switch modes.
    When you switch modes, you do have to drag the words, not just tap on the video word, if that makes any sense. When you try to go from video to photo, do you try to drag the photo word to the front?

  • Plz tell me how I can get back from the recovery mode to my normal mode without lossing data ... actually I was trying to update ios 7 in my 4s so then mobile stuck into recovery mode...plz help?

    plz tell me how I can get back from the recovery mode to my normal mode without lossining data...I stuck in this mode while I was try to update ios 7 in my 4s

    If it's in recovery mode, anything on the phone is already gone.  Restore the phone using iTunes, then restore it from your last backup. If you've been backing up on a regular basis as intended, you won't lose anything except what's changed since the last backup.
