my problem with the camera is that, sometimes i unlock the cellphobe with the camera button (because i want to capture something ;) ) when i take the photo the camera freeze x_x, i take the picture and the images stay, the only way i can use my phone is lock and unlock but when i open the camera happens the same, i take a picture and the camera freeze. sometimes after take one picture the second or thrid freeze the camera. i allready try different camera apps and its the same u.u, so i need to reboot the phone so the camera work good again (for who knows how long).
i try different roms and the original tft always in 14.4.A.0.108.
i really dont know what to do, back to 14.3.A.0.757? o back even mora to android 4.3? :'(
i really like this phone and i dont want to change it.

Disable Stamina Mode - it happens only when in Stamina. Or press Power Button before pressing Camera Button. That way it will wake phone from Stamina Mode and then it shouldn't freeze on taking pictures.

Rubbish. I don't use Stamina mode and mine still does it almost every time I try and use the camera.

Same here, started happening recently with no identifiable cause. I don't use Stamina mode either.

yesterday my AR effect didnt want to capture picture, after reboot it was working fine.
I think there is something messed up in memory "cache" when you use a phone lot of time without shutdown or restart.

Best to provide a logcat or something that can help fix your issues. Use 'adb logcat > filename.txt' or google if you don't know how to logcat :)

this problem appeared first on android kitkat, so if you want perfect camera, you have to go back to .290 jelly bean.
in kitkat it appears often on .757 but it got a lot better on .108 and later.
this freeze is caused by a wrong memory managment. if you choose the internal memory instead of external sd card, you camera wont freeze

P.S with .157 this problem should be fixed

Well thats a very common problem with 108.. The same was happening with me when i had 108.. All you need to do is update to 157. Even if you see the changelog for 157 it clearly states improvements in the camera.. Believe me this is what you need to do. Hope this helps :)

if i am not wrong , this problem has been fixed in .157. When i was on .108 stock , i had issues when i opened the camera from lock screen or using the camera button.
But after .157, i no longer face any issues when i open the camera from lock screen. sadly, the camera button still sometimes causes the problem u described above......

Im using . 157 rooted.... But still it freezes after i root my fone.... I dont know if it's because of the root file i used. Is there any way i can manually install camera..
but when i turn off my focus option in camera360 it doesnt freeze....

STEPS:
After unlocking bootloader and rooting your device. Just relock your bootloader.... And done....
