Camera "fixed" for now

Just so you all know, open up your camera and snap a few shots. You will get green corners now and your pics will be in focus!

This has to do with a bug in the programming. It has something to do with the date. The camera will focus fine for 24.5 days and then focus like *** for 24.5 days and keep doing that. Google has already said they are working on a true fix for the Dec 11th update.

This works out JUST right because 24 days from the 17th is the 11th! So timing will be just right.

Also, if you don't believe it is a time/date issue, set the time on your phone back a day or two and look at all the pretty red corners you get, then set it back to today or later and it will work again. Everyone originally thought that an update had been pushed in the background but thats not the case.

weird. i never had a problem with my camera. i always thought it was because i kept my lens clean. i guess we'll see.

Well a lot of people (me included) had problems focusing. You would have to hold the button down half way several times before you could get the green corners. Many people found it almost impossible to get a good focus.

Starting last night/this morning, everyone who had problems can now focus just fine.
