galaxy gear 2 blurry pictures from camera

[rabidewok]

I bought my wife the galaxy gear 2 and all the pictures that she takes with her camera are blurry. Of course lens is clean and it is on auto focus. All pictures that she takes with it are blurry, close and far away. Is there a way to calibrate it? I cant see any moisture under the glass??? please help!

Top right corner of the camera view is the options button. Click on that and you will see "Focus Mode." Set it to "Auto" if not already done so.

If you haven't already, reset the watch and try it without any added apps before you take it back.

So today I went to work in a kitchen. When I got there I had to go in the walk-in fridges and today happened to be hot. When that happens my glasses fog up. Anyway I was going to show off the camera feature of the gear 2 to a friend and when I turned it on the camera was foggy. I was so upset I thought water had gotten in it from the fridge encounter. So being the savvy guy I am I took rice,, put it in a bag with the watch and vacuum sealed it for several hours. When I cut open the seal and turned on the wattch it STILL didn't defogg!!!! Well great I said!!!! And I hit it with the palm of my hand..... The picture can in focus and all was well.... It brings me back to when hitting electronics made them work better.... So don't punch it just palm it and see if that helps... I was seriously thinking about returning it tomorrow but maybe just maybe I'll keep it

Re: galaxy gear 2 blurry pictures from camera (Solved)

Hello everyone:

First apologize for the translation because my English is not perfect-

I had the same problem and solved it almost by accident.

I was reading this post and decided to take the gear 2 with hand and give some blows against a rubber foam cover and miraculously the camera refocused.

I suspect blows fixed camera photo was stuck or could also be that had accumulated static and friction with the rubber removed.

The truth is that the action of giving some punches the clock or rub against something soft works and the camera refocuses this perfectly: D

I hope they serve my solution, then leave the original comment in Spanish.

Hola a todos:

En primer lugar pido disculpas por la traducción ya que mi inglés no es perfecto-

Yo tuve el mismo problema y lo solucioné casi por casualidad.

Estuve leyendo este post y decidí tomar el gear 2 con la mano y darle algunos golpes contra una funda de espuma de goma y milagrosamente la cámara volvió a enfocar.

Yo sospecho que los golpes arreglaron la camara de fotos que estaba trabada o también pudo ser que tuviera estática acumulada y la fricción con la goma la eliminara.

Lo cierto es que la acción de darle algunos golpes al reloj o frotarlo contra algo suave funciona y la cámara de fotos vuelve a enfocar perfectamente-

Espero les sirvan mi solución, a continuación dejo el comentario original en español.
