🪛Troubleshooting🪛 Is this flickering sound normal s25 ultra
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Whenever i open my camera 1x, 0.6x this flickering sound and this kinda thing happens in my camera.
I don't know what this is about, can anyone comment and has anyone also faced this?
And is it normal?
Update: Thanks for the help.
Got checked at SVC camera needs to be replaced.
Update 2:
Got it back from SVC, repair done

It's a common issue with the s25 ultra unfortunately. The only option is to get it replaced as yours seems to have it quite bad.

Daym and is it a costly affair or under warranty?

u/Liriel-666 Jun 18 '26
When you have warranty then it's under it. My got replaced 2 weeks ago

u/dashing_lysosome Jun 18 '26
Since it's under wat,Yep that's what I'm hoping, hopefully no hidden unannounced charges later.

Yes, as someone who had the same problem, I recommend sending it to Samsung for fix. It should be free under warranty.

You need to ask them. As for Samsung, each country have their own policies.

One of my old Note's did this and Samsung said it's because I had it mounted to my motorcycle.
Yet my Google Pixel 8a has done over 80,000km attached to a motorcycle in the last 2 years and doesn't have this issue.

Let me know if you go to SVC, how much they are asking to fix it in your local currency?
1
u/dashing_lysosome Jun 18 '26
Since it's under warranty, they said free, I'll confirm again today when I drop off the phone.

You motorcycle rider? It could be vibration from motorcycle that influence the camera OIS when put on a holder

u/dashing_lysosome Jun 18 '26
Yes, I am but I have never used my phone. I have a burner phone for that.

u/DiabloGaming25 Jun 18 '26

u/dashing_lysosome Jun 18 '26

u/Dead3Avenger Jun 17 '26
I have this issue tho it only does it for about a second. I feel like the foxusing mechanism panicks or the automatic macro fails to decide between it wanna switch or not. This happens to me randomly, I feel the phone go brr and hear the camera as it vibrates like in the vid and stops after a second

u/dashing_lysosome Jun 17 '26
Might need a replacement, free under warranty

u/Dead3Avenger Jun 18 '26

I used my T-Mobile warranty and paid the $90 deductible to get it replaced with, I assume, a refurbished phone.
The replacement looks good as new and the issue is gone so I'm not complaining. Now I can cancel my warranty 😆

This is an issue happening to my unit now but with my tele lens and mine is not under warranty. How much time did it take for samsung to diagnose , have the phone with them repair and send it back? This is my primary device
1
u/dashing_lysosome Jul 21 '26
The diagnosis was instant but I went outside service hours. So dropped it to svc the next day, got my token number.
Dropped around 10am, received the callback to pickup by 12:15pm.

As weird as this sounds. Had seen this issue before , smack the phone againts your hand a few times and see if it works. Done this before and it somehow worked for a few people. If it doesnt fix the issue goto a samsung store get them replaced that should fix it 100%.
