Annoying flashing screen with Camera App

Fairphone 3+ purchased from /e/ shop.
Not rooted.
Current OS: 3.0.4-t-20250709507786-official-FP3

When I turn the camera function on the screen continually flashes white. Is this a screen issue or a module issue? I am hoping it is not a module issue as these are no longer available from Fairphone.

I don’t recall hearing or seeing anything about such an issue.
You could try whether disassembling the display and camera modules, carefully cleaning the contacts and assembling everything again would help.
A backup of everything important on the phone to somewhere safe is advisable beforehand, of course.

If a second display or camera module would be needed to troubleshoot, and if you happen to have Fairphone Angels (community volunteers helping users locally) in your vicinity, it might be worth asking them whether they would be able to help … 👼 The Fairphone Angels Program and Map (Local support by community members) - Local - Fairphone Community Forum

If there’s no other way than to get one, you might check the Fairphone community forum’s Market category … Market - Fairphone Community Forum

The flashing appears to have stopped now but I’m having different issues. Thanks for that helpful link.
