My front camera on iPhone 4s won't work?
I have the latest update which is like iOS 8.3 or something like that and everytime I turn the camera on it's just a black screen. But I switch it around to the other camera and the rear works just fine and it's a pain in the but when I'm tryig to take selfies. Every time I try to switch it to the front camera it's either blurry, black or it freezes. And I've tried everything I can think of. I restarted my phone, I literally reset my settings, i cleared all my apps including the camera app, I've looked at everything in my settings, I've tried rotating the camera back and forth but it just won't budge. I can't drive yet so I can't take it to the apple or verizon store and my parents won't take me. If anyone can help me out and help fix the problem I'll gladly give 5 stars!
Try completely resetting your phone, if this doesn't work, try a phone DFU mode.DFU mode is a state that you can put your iPhone into where it can interface with iTunes but does not load the iPhone operating system or boot loader (this is what really differs DFU mode from recovery mode). DFU stands for Device Firmware Update. This will force you to plug your phone into iTunes and hard reset everything on your phone.
BACK UP YOUR PHONE BEFORE DOING ANYTHING THOUGH
to do this:
Step One
Open iTunes and connect the iPhone to your Mac.
Step Two
Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time.
Step Three
After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.
NOTE***: It may take a few attempts to get your iPhone into DFU mode. Generally, I hold down both buttons then release the Home button just before I think the Apple logo would appear. If you are still holding both buttons down and you see the Apple logo you are holding them down for too long!
Hope this helps!
- Will replacing my iphone 4s front screen fix my front camera? - 1 The screen on my iphone 4s is cracked, and has completely fallen off in front of the camera. My pictures are no extremely blurry, no matter how many times i try to clean it. Will fixing my front screen fix this problem?
- Why do I look okay in the front camera of my iPhone but bad in the back camera? I kinda look good in the front camera of my iPhone but I have noticed I don't look that "great" in the back camera of the phone. My face looks longer and my smile is bigger? It's kinda weird. But in the front camera i kinda look like the way I see myself in the mirror. But why do I look good in one camera but bad in the other if they're both cameras?
- Which camera is better: An old General Imaging x500 Digital Camera or an iPhone 7 front camera? It looks like an iPhone only offers 7 MP while this camera boasts 16 MP but this camera is so old and looks worse at least on its own screen. I'm confused
- My Iphone front facing camera won't work? I have tried resetting my settings and I don't know what to do? The shutters close and if you look closely at the option to switch to video it glitches.
