Solutions

Workaround

Sometimes restarting the phone will allow it take pictures again. Picture quality is still not good though. Also, went to the XDA Forums and got a GCAM app from the Google Camera Port Hub. This app does not freeze but picture quality again is not good.

Possible fixes

Maybe there is an issue with the current camera software since GCAM app works?? Unknown how to fix bad picture quality issues.
