Camera Crashing - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Has anyone had an issue where the phone cant connect to the camera?
It started with Snapchat where i get a black screen with a message saying "cannot find camera, please reset the phone"
After i go into the stock camera app and i get the same black screen. The only way to fix is by restarting the phone.
I've tried to factory reset but that didn't solve anything
Thanks for any help!

Which camera app did you install? 1st suggestion would be to remove that app and reboot

Force Closes, not rooted. WTF???

Hey peeps, I keep getting random FC's for system updates and Android processes. I'm not rooted, and have no idea why this is happening. Any suggestions?

Must be an incompatibility with an app you installed. Check the apps you have installed.
Worse case scenario just factory reset the phone.

How would I check my apps to figure out which one it is? Thanks for the reply also

when did you start noticing it? what app was the last you installed before it started happening? delete the app and see if the problem is still there. just do a process of elimination. worst case, just back up your stuff and do a factory reset.
Im gonna say yeah, just do a factory reset.
Have you tried rebooting it? Sometimes that will help eliminate little bugs you may be experiencing.

I dont know what you mean by soft boot but just hold down the power button and then choose to turn off phone then wait a couple seconds while its off then turn it back on.

Camera not starting?

in the past two days my phone has failed to start my camera twice. I opened instagram first and when I tried to take a photo it said "unable to start camera" in tried it again and it said the same thing. So I opened the actual camera and it just opened a black screen with the camera controls (shutter buttons, settings, etc)
No matter how many times I opened the camera or cleared the tasks using the camera it still refused to start. only after restarting the phone did the camera start again.
has anyone else experienced this or know any possible reasons as to why this could be happening???

Try deleting the data of the camera app, if that doesn't work, try a different ROM, if it still happens, it's a hardware problem.

ill try that the next time it happens but at the moment I'm completely stock and just rooted.

I actually had this happen a few times before I rooted or ROM'd. I have yet to have it happen on JellyBean and, if I did, I could just hot boot. The only thing that ever fixed the issue on stock was a restart.
Is it possible this is an issue similar to webcams and PC's where the permissions get messed up? Can you recreate it? Open app x then try to use the camera in app y and see if it's bonkers.
I have been trying everything in order to reproduce the problem, no luck as of yet unfortunately.

Problems with d851. Could really use some advice.

So, I bought it on launch day and I'm getting desperate...
1) Wake screen after receiving notification (text etc). Pull down notification bar, back and multitask soft buttons grey out and phone will not respond. If I'm listening to music when this happens, the song keeps playing until I pull the battery or the phone reboots itself.
2) General lag is awful... More than half the time it has noticeable hangs switching apps or opening anything. I'm down to next to no apps that i've installed and have even tried removing just about everything I have with no improvement. Scrolling stutters about half the time as well. And the image you see with the camera open stutters badly also. Every once in a while it's buttery smooth for a few seconds then slows again.
Battery life is great and I love the form factor of this phone. I REALLY don't want to get rid of it but I'm at the point where it's more important to have a phone that's usable than have the extra screen size etc.
It's bone stock and I haven't tried a factory reset.
Suggestions?
Try the factory reset then go from there.

Or reflash the whole firmware using LGFlashTool. Might help.

Well, I did the factory reset and no lockups or reboots yet. It's still really laggy though :-/
Gonna give it a while longer but I'm thinking it's time to root. What's the "hot setup" for the tmo version of this phone?

I meant rom/mods. I've seen people mention 60fps mod for the camera but I was wondering if there was an international rom that worked with the d851 since we haven't seen any of the updates for this phone yet.

We have the only unlocked bootloader. There are no international roms. SkyDragon is a good rom tho.

Apps Closing Unexpectedly

I don't know if anyone else is facing this issue but after update, apps close expectedly and it is very very irritating since important data is also lost in some instances. I have reset and cleared cache but nothing has improved.

Give it around a day. It will get solved. For me it did.
Edit - Don't use any themes downloaded from Playstore or anywhere else. Just use the themes that came with the phone and see if there are any crashes or restarts?

Make sure you have not applied any theme.
Also turn off the option to automatically close power intensive apps in the battery settings.

If clearing data doesn't work, I guess you need a factory reset

Hi all I've this issue too someone have solved?
I have this exact issue. It started after the update to B183 firmware. I've checked all the battery saving settings, did a soft and hard reset, but the issue still lingers. I've called Honor support line and they asked me to hard reset the phone, but I told them that I've already did that. They asked me to take the phone to a repair center but I live in a island and the center is on the mainland.
Ive had an Honor 8 before and had no issues whatsoever with any updates. Honor dropped the ball on this one.
If you can rollback, that will be the best decision

Don't use any custom theme or font.
Also set your screen size to normal.
I too had this problem and did a factory reset. The issue persisted even after the hard reset but was gone in a day.
I guess give it time to settle down.

[Q] [Need Help] Facing Apps Crashes

Hello guys,
I'm facing some weird problems with my phone,
×All installed apps automatically restart or FC for at least once or twice.
×Music player stops when screen goes off.[Solved]
Also I want to ask, it is normal in emui that we can clear a sticky notification because I'm able to clear all notifications including those which are not supposed to be? Is it normal?
I did reset the settings but no luck
Please reply if you know anything about these issues.

What about sticky notifications? Is it also common?
There is a solution that you need to try:
Go to settings - battery - Click the gear icon on right hand top - UNTICK "close excessively power-intensive apps"
If you are on b183, it is common that apps crash

There is a B183? I'm on B140 and it is the latest update for me
There's a b183
Yeah. Me too. Frequent app crashed. Like fb, WhatsApp and the worse is on games like mobile legend during war. I'm and sometimes my whole team dead there when that happens
Tried wiping data?
