New Mi5s Camera Issue Focusing

[Evaristo]

My Mi5s rear camera is not working properly since two or three last updates. Today I installed the 9.6 8.4.19Beta and it's still not working. The problem is that the camera is not focus, all photos are blurry.

Could you please take a look for the next update, please??

If you need anything just ask!

Best regards

Nothing. Few weeks after post this message, I heard a noise coming from the camera when I force to focus in one specific area of the image... Obviously the camera was broken so I decided to bought a new one and replace it. The first day the issue seemed to be solved, but sadly the second day come back.

Finally and after a lot of tests, I saw that after hitting the camera with one finger, as for example, tapping on a table, the camera works fine, focus included.

I have no idea about what is happening. My bet is that some circuit inside the phone is not working properly, but I have not enough knowledges about electronic to check what is going on.

By the way, this morning I shook the phone instead of tapping the camera area with my finger, and worked too...
