Default My Droids camera problem.

My camera does not seem to AF, and I have it set to AF.

I keep seeing red bars but no green, is something wrong here?

Common problem.

I have never seen the green bars

Hopefully it will be fixed in the upcoming update.

Do you get it to autofocus in the "keychain" application? I can't seem to get it to read any barcodes. I got it to read 1, ever and that was a struggle. Not sure if that's related.

Try using the onscreen capture button and see if that helps.

The problem is, they are saying Dec 11th for the update.

And my 30 day worry free is over on Dec 12th, that is cutting it close.

Lucky...mine (and I'm sure a lot of others) is about a week earlier. I'm wondering if I could extend it since I had to exchange my first one after the first week. Although it doesn't really matter... I'm not planning on returning this phone.

Yeah, but it was not cheap and everything should be working 100%.
