Samsung Convoy 2 Camera Errors

I have the same issue with my Samsung Convoy 2 . I have owned it for about 1 month and until today it took pics and vids. This afternoon it started displaying this when I press the Camera  button :  "Camera Error". I tried removing the battery and card for ten minutes and it still has this issue.
Any other ideas?
Thank you

    Hi Camaro's,  The camera has become an important part of our cell phones!  Let's get it back up and running!  I appreciate you taking the time to troubleshoot the device.  At this point I would suggest a hard reset on the device.  Here is a link to the instructions: http://bit.ly/TS6lLC 
Please be sure to backup the data on the device as this will erase everything from the device.  Backup Assistant is a great resource to sync your contacts.  Please keep me updated on the status.
Thank you,

  • Samsung Convoy 2 Camera Error

    Don't know why but my brand new (1 day old) phone is now registering a "Camera Error" & I cannot take pics or video.....anyone have any suggestions/solutions??

    Good morning MsDi.
    I know the camera is definitely an important feature on any device, especially a new device!  I see you previously posted about the memory card from your previous phone not displaying  the pictures on your new phone.  Did you do the formatting you were advised to do in that post?  Did this problem start before or after the memory card troubleshooting?  You definitely should not have the camera error; therefore, it may be due to the memory card.  The best way to see what is going on, is process of elimination.  
    1)  Try removing the memory card from the device, power the phone off, remove the battery for 30 seconds, power back on without the memory card.  Try using the camera.
    If the camera works with no errors, it may be the memory card and not the phone.  
    2)  If the phone works without the card, try inserting the card while the phone is on.  Try using the camera again.  If you get another error, then we know it is the card.  
    If the camera doesn't work at all still, please send me a Private Message, and I will be happy to personally assist you.
    Thank you,

    How do I remove my caller id from my samsung convoy phone so that the person I call does not see my name?

    MojaveMoon's solution will work if there is only one person you want to block your ID from; if you want to block your caller ID from everyone, you can go to your account online, go to Change Features, and scroll down till you see Caller ID block.  Instructions say that once this is activated, you can dial *82 before any # you WANT to display your number to, but all others will be blocked.
    If you are on a Family share plan, the account owner needs to log in and choose your line to activate this feature.

  • Samsung Convoy Bluetooth connection

    I have a Samsung Convoy and 90% of the time I have to turn the phone off and back on to get the phone to connect with the Jawnone Icon . I have tried removing and re-pairing the Jawbone and phone and it didn't help. Any suggestions?

    I recommend that you do a battery pull for your device.  Please remove the battery, press and hold the power button for ten seconds.  Replace the battery and power the device on.  Once the device is on, try pairing the device with the Blue Tooth.

  • My Samsung tv came pre-loaded with V-Tunes. I prefer in Tune-In Radio. How can I get it on there?

    My samsung tv came pre-loaded with V-Tunes.  I prefer Tune-IN Radio which was pre-installed on my other samsung tv which was recently replaced with larger unit without realizing that Tune-In wasn't installed on this new one..... How do I get it installed. It ia not appearing in the Samsung Apps on my screen.   Frustrated!!!!!

    Go to the page linked below, and there's an option to "check your device". If you click this, you can enter the make and model etc. of your new TV and find out for certain if it is compatible or not.

    I have a Samsung Convoy "dumb" phone, and I plan to keep it until Verizon forces me to some **** overpriced "smart" phone.  Since they migrated Backup Assistant to "the Cloud", I am unable to print a hard copy list of contacts. The web site just runs you around in circles, never getting to the answer of how to print out contacts.  I'm sure the marketing people and web creators just love this Frankenstein monster they have built, but for me and my phone, it's just a huge pain in the ***!  Do they plan to fix this, or just let us dinosaurs go away and die?

    there is a point : no workie
    how hard would it be to place my (or yours I am told) iPhone4S on a city block curb………..
    and just walk away.. .. ..

  • Using the Samsung convoy 2 with Microsoft Sync

    After I pair my Samsung Convoy 2 phone with Sync it only works sometimes. It seems like when I get into the car it is not connecting via Bluetooth all the time. I hit the phone button on my stering wheel and it Sync says no phone found, I will try to connect one. My previous phone worked fine so I know the Sync system is functioning fine. Any ideas or is anyone currently using this phone with Sync?

    I've got a Ford Edge with Microsoft's Sync system. It works pretty well with both my iPhone and my 5th Gen iPod. Playlists and all.
    The biggest issue I have now is that the play count on podcasts (and presumably all music) doesn't get updated/credited for items played via Sync. This is an issue for me since the iPhone's relatively small storage space makes use of Smart Playlists essential, and most of my playlists have "play count - 0" on them to ensure fresh podcasts are synced up. I'll have to post about that in a new thread perhaps.
    re: your specific issue, I don't think this will fix it, but Microsoft's Ford Sync is very picky about all metadata tags being complete on all items (artist, track, album, etc). Sync won't index items that don't have proper metadata, and if it doesn't index them, I'm going to assume it can't see them to play them under all the right circumstances.

    recently bought a samsung NX30 camera which came with lightroom 5, after several hours of googling i got it setup properly with the correct camera raw to be able to access my raw images. I found my old laptop was very slow when processing the hundreds of images I usually take on a weekly basis.  I bought a new faster laptop but when I looked for the cd with the software and serial I could not find it in the Xmas clutter.  I downloaded a trial version of lightroom and got it working on my new laptop. Is there a way to access the serial number from my previously installed version and insert it into the trail version to make it work for me?
    Myron

    Mea culpa
    While i registered all my cs2 thru 6 versions and my lightroom 2 thru 4 versions and recorded the serials and saved the adobe registration emails.  Since this came as a freebee with the camera i neglected this vital step.  I have the instslled version on my old laptop but want to install it on my new one.  Thanks to Jim Hess I got the serial so all is well in my world and I will register it with ADOBE

  • WP Camera Error When Starting App

    Sometimes on my Lumia 928 when loading Qik I get an error that says my camera didnt load properly please restart. I have to force close the app then restart it to get it to work again.

    What is considered a "large" address book - over 100, over 1000? Just wondering as to the scale.
    Also, that doesn't address the Camera Error that started this thread. Is this a known issue that has been identified and will be addressed very soon? Not to be snarky but a video messaging service that doesn't work with the device camera is useless. 
    In all seriousness, after reading the MS store reviews, and the limited comments here, it seems like everyone is complaining about crashes, lockups and needing to restart the phone to get the camera working. How could you guys put this out (at least without huge flashing BETA in the name)?? For an app that needs to go "viral" for success - for early adoptors to get their friends to use it - you're blowing it big time. Who is their right mind would try to get their friends to use this the way it is now?? As it stand all my friends think I'm some kind of fool for using a Windows Phone in the first place - and then for me to come out and say, "hey guys, try this great new MS app..." when it flat out doesn't work . Those of us using MS devices and services are your biggest supporters and want to support your ecosystem and for you guys to succeed - and we are also your critics. I hope you guys and gals at Skype represent the "new" Microsoft that is trying to listen to their users. If you are, please hear us - fix this mess. And stop putting out crap - or at least call it a beta so we know to expect issues. You guys need to be doing it BETTER if you want to catch up to Apple and Google. Please send Mr Nadella my regards.

  • Samsung Convoy 2 Questions

    I recently switched from a Blackberry Curve to a Samsung Convoy 2. I just have two questions I'm hoping someone here can answer.
    1.  Why is this considered a basic phone rather than a smart phone? So far, it seems to have the capability to do everything my Blackberry did.
    2.  When I was setting up the phone, I thought I stumbled across a way to record your own ringtone. I'm a pianist and would love to make my own. In looking through the phone menus and the online manual, I don't see it as an option. 
    Thanks!

    Good morning suzsubaru1955,
    You make a very good point about why the Samsung Convoy 2 isn't a smartphone. I agree with you that this device has some attractive features that we come to expect in a smartphone. A vague definition of a smartphone is a mobile cellular device that also have PDA capabilities. Smartphones provide the end users a mobile experience that traditionally mirrors a PC, Mac, laptop, etc. The computing ability of a smartphone is more versatile than a feature phone.  Below, I have listed some of the characteristics that makes a device a smartphone.
    1.  A standalone mobile operating system.
    2.  Full HTML web browsers
    3.  Portable media players
    4.  Touch screen navigation
    5.  Various networking capabilities (Bluetooth, wi-fi, broadband)
    Although there are more characteristics that can be listed to describe a smartphone, the 5 above a the most popular ones. I see that you are interested in creating your own ringtones. This ability is traditionally not offered in a feature phone. It is often found in the capabilities of a smartphone. There are third party apps that allow you to create customized ringtones available. A great place to start would be to google create your own ringtones. You will find several links, usually programs that work with the PC/Mac, that can help you create customized ringtones. If you have any additional questions or concerns then don't hesitate to reply to this message.
    Good luck & happy ringtone shopping!

  • Camera Error Storm2 9550

    Sigh...  I have become victim to the camera error "Could not start camera.  Close other applications and try opening the camera again."  I've tried battery pulls and all sorts of other tricks to no avail.  I can't wipe the phone and start over because I run a macbook with snow leopard 10.6 (Desktop Manager doesn't work and usb won't recognize the phone).  Can't just have Verizon replace it because it's almost 2 years old and no longer under contract.  Might as well just buy a new phone but don't really have the means to.  I'm not sure if it's some issue with an app I downloaded (I deleted a bunch of the apps I had recently downloaded with no success) or if something disconnected when it was dropped.  Pressing on the lense doesn't seem to do anything.  Anyone have a similar issue and find a solution?  I'm likely to be stuck with this phone for a while yet.  

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Reboot the device in safe mode if you think a third party device is at fault
    Run the Device Self Test if you suspect a hardware issue.

    Hi nuescapn,
    Have you done Security Wipe? Does the camera work after this?
