Camera does not focus correctly - possibly software?



I have an SM-N910T flashed with Rapture 8.2 running 5.1.1 on baseband COG2.

I've been having trouble with the camera ever since I flashed any custom rom. Sometimes the stock camera fails to open and remains black and spits out "camera failed."
Sometimes it opens with a big delay and is unable to focus to anything. The only temporary fix is clearing the camera cache, and trying again. Even so It's impossible to take a photo without exiting several times.

I have noticed that whenever I boot my phone, I have a "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing" message that pops on the top left corner.

Could it possibly be that I have the wrong kernel interfering with the camera? I've booted in safemode and the issue persists.


Anyone experiencing something similar? I hope it's not hardware related.

Camera is very slow to focus



I know it's late to ask this but i have this phone for quite a while now. Since brand new, i have always noticed that the camera auto focusing has been really really laggy and it gets worse under dimmer conditions. Touch to focus is a tad faster but then its not as great too. I used to have a iPhone 5 and it was a fast snapper and i rarely miss a shot with my active toddler around. With my note 3, most of the time i am missing moments even with him (my tod) being less active!

Is this merely due to software / OS or hardware limitations? Is there anyway to fix this ?

Please advise. :cowboy:

Camera Focus



I just picked up a Galaxy S6 Edge on Sprint. Phone is running nice but it has its hiccups at times. (I'm coming from an iPhone 6Plus). One thing that bugs the crap out of me is the camera. When I double press my home button, camera launches but it is so blurry. I press the screen and try to get it to focus but does not work. I have to completely shake the phone for it to get to focus. Is there anyone else with this problem?

Focus buzz sound



Since I updated my s6 edge to 5.1.1, every time I open snapchat or camera app, the rear camera does a buzzing sound when focusing. I don't know if it's mechanical as I never dropped my phone not even once.



6P Cases Warning - Manny may break the camera (Laser Auto Focus Blocked)



I was looking at the cases posted on Amazon for the 6P so far and quickly noticed that almost all of them appear to block the Laser Auto-Focus. Whatever the cause, if you buy a case that does this it WILL break camera focusing which will make the camera practically useless. Be warned and shop smart.

Edit, can a mod please fix my stupid spelling mistake in the title.



Camera Focus not working (Manual & Auto)



So since I updated to OxygenOS 2.1 my camera focus has stopped working, I've tried the stock camera app, Open Camera and Camera360, none of them can use the focus, neither manual focus or auto focus.

I've tried both wiping the cache and a factory reset, neither of which worked. So what do I do now? Is it possible to roll back the OS to 2.0.2 or 2.0.1? Should I install(reinstall?) 2.1 again? I'm very noob when it comes to tinkering with my phones OS in this kind of way. I really do need to get this sorted, so if you tell me what I need to do either give me a noob-friendly description of how to do it or link me to a noob-friendly guide for this stuff. Really out of my comfort zone here, so afraid of bricking my phone(first nice phone I've let myself buy in years).

Phone is not rooted.
