Help Front Camera Issue

Blur and can't see your face? Maybe the lens is covered with dirt, dust, etc?

Try wiping the front screen/camera with a cloth and see if you can see your face.
 
Do you have a screen protector on your phone? Sometimes they get it the way.

You could also try to ..

  1. Reboot your phone.
  2. Use a different camera app
  3. Try to use manual focus

if that doesn't help it might be a hardware fault in the front camera. If so, it's got to go back for repairs.
 
Thanks For the reply. Well I have screen protector which was inserted by the company itself. I saw that it was a bit not right in the top . the cover moves a bit more right than needed . Is this a problem? And I have also rebooted and installed another camera app yesterday . It didn't work
 
If the screen protector is pulling away from the face of the lens area it could prevent the camera from accurately focusing. Does it try to focus when you enable the front camera? or, does it hold the same blurry image all the time?
 
Hmmm, that indicates that it might not be able to focus. What kinds of phone is it and which android version are you using?
 
Ah, since it's so new, I'd have to assume it was defective. You should return it for a replacement.
 
OK I will return it . But is it possible to repair through a service centre for free of cost bcoz it was the mistake of the company and I have done a lot of modification to this device

No idea. Every store/carrier is different in terms of service. Usually if a device is so new, they simply replace it. You might be able to request a service center look at it, but if the camera itself is defective, I doubt they will fix that. They'd most likely swap it out for a refurb or give you a new one anyway. Either way you'll lose your modifications.
 
Lol Blonde moment for me! I didn't see that u can take out the screen protector. So when I got that I took aout a bit of it and and opened camera and voilà now it's clear!!
 
Glad it was an easy fix. While some like the screen protectors, I find that they get in the way more than they help. Of course you have to be a bit more careful with your phone so you don't scratch it.

If you want to keep using a screen protector, i understand the glass ones work better and make sure you get one that doesn't cover the sensors.
