I’ve detected the issue might be related with some apps: close Google Play in advance (1 minute or so). That worked for me.

All has to do with this single but really annoying bug. Shoot with just color sensor and deactivate sync/Drive option and it will fly: mine does, granted the camera doesn’t spoil it.

Nokia 8 is the worst phone I’ve ever used, I literally wasted my money, when I have extra money to buy another phone, I’ll dump this bullshit in the WC and flush it. How can a 4gb RAM phone be hanging from the first week of purchase, it hangs almost everyday, there’s nothing flexible about this phone, I won’t recommend it to anybody, I always tell my friends, never buy a Nokia phone, the camera is even the worst, 13 GB seems like 5gb or at best 8gb, no image stabilization, some times after snapping it takes 5secs or more for the shot to be taken. I’ll smash this phone soon

Everything goes smoothly and then the camera freezes so often… For now your fix seems to work. Thx!
