This is frustrating, the phone hangs but they will not accept is a phone issue and return you the money, it seems we can be years waiting for a solution, and they will probably leave us without it.
Count me as on of the users affected by this issue. GCam did not resolve it. I don't have an SD card in the phone so that is not the cause. I just disabled the location tagging, will see if that helps.
Try the first link. It's somewhat ok for me.
I seem to be having the best luck with Open Camera from the Play Store. The GCam/Pixel camera APKs were little better than stock Camera. Even with Open Camera some apps that use the camera still crash. This sucks and must be fixed!
well how about that. turning location off really does help. But after i turned off location permit for camera, i ha d to start camera app and it asked location permit. just deny and now WhatsApp camera works well enough again.

is very good as compared to old one.Its having portrait features very good.Lens Blur not working but we got portrait mode very useful and google motion is fantastic.Try Everyone This Google Apk Very nice.I am fall in love.
Phone itself had bad software, hangs, or keep a long time to respond on simple app change. If I was able to I would chose to change it for another phone. I hope I had the common sense to buy a Xiaomi and not this one. Support just see to pee on us.
nothing is fixed for me, wont even say I hope September update or Pie fixes it bc at this point, its been over four and a half months of this.
Nothing is fixed for me. Comment with link to a video was probably removed or forum also lags
search YouTube for "Nokia 6.1 lags" too see how to reproduce the issue.
Tomorrow I will try to repair it in service center
This is a big problem for nokia phone.
My phone even sometimes frezze totally when i launch a camera app
And when i see my phones uses 2.3Gb of Ram when i don't use it that's the shittiest Ram managment ever
And if i close all apps with square button how a support told me nothing changes a phone still hangs
My first Samsung GT-I5800 with 256Mb Ram never ever hang or frezze when i take photos and now with 3Gb Ram we all hangs??? What a joke
I "fixed" mine by removing *all* permissions from the Camera app and installing Open Camera from the Play Store. Nokia still needs to fix this major problem, though.
I can confirm it is not only the camera app. I usually use the Walmart app to pay in store when I shop there. As soon as I launch Walmart Pay inside the app, it tries to use the camera and the app freezes or the entire phone freezes. Switch to a new phone now because it got so bad. Still have the Nokia that I would give to my daughter to play with, but she would want to use the camera so it is completely useless.
I was able to fix mine. Read my post 4 prior to this one. All you have to do is set another camera app as default (I use Open Camera), and then disable *all* permissions from the built-in Camera app. Location, storage access, etc. You then can stop worrying about it.
Nokia, you need to get your act together on this one and fix the obviously widespread problem!
