HI, I need to understand why many of us owners of the Huawei P10 has problems with the camera that does not focus or each photo is always blurred and it takes a side kick to fix it temporarily, then I would also know if changing the camera solve the problem. Thank you.

where to get the best rear camera replacement?

Alex Baker - Sep 27, 2018

Could this be a firmware related issue? Perhaps the camera firmware in the replacement part is now older than that expected by the firmware in the phone itself?

Does anyone know where to find information about this sort of thing? Whenever I search the Googles I am always taken to generic pages about flashing boot loaders and various versions of Android, not the actual firmware.
