Android Scanner

[satanboy]

I've downloaded two versions of scanners (SCAN & QR Driod) on my Samsung SII.

I am unable to scan any QR code, my camera makes all the images blurry. Am I doing something wrong? Has anyone experienced this?

What a lol, the QR code above (I added just as example) worked!

How odd.

I had the same problem a while ago. Fixed it by cleaning the camera lens on my phone.

I cannot take any close up pictures, they always come out blurry.

Don't think it needs to be zoomed up to the max to work, back of a bit till you get focus. Also tap the screen to manually focus it.

Manually put the Focus Mode on Macro. I find that works MUCH better than Auto focus (specifically for close up photos).
Don't forget to put it back on Auto once you're done.

Tried both, neither works.

I've never had a problem with auto focus. Works perfectly. Also don't have a blur problem.

Either your lens is really dirty or there is something wrong with the camera. Could even be software related if you're into modding your phone.

I don't mod my phone. Other pictures come out perfect.

Tested with my SO's (also a Samsung hers SIII mine SII). Hers works 100%. Seems like my autofocus doesn't work whether on or off.
