Webcam problems with motorola Xoom

My Xoom WiFi only has got a video chat problem. When having video chatting from the front facing camera or rear shows up to other people, the video is moving off screen by turning and wobbling.

How to fix the camera issue
There is a little scalier on top of your video box that's on the bottom right. And it has a "Hand" on the left and a "shaky Hand" on the right. You need to set the video feed to Hand.

Xoom Camera error Cannot connect to camera

I have a Xoom tablet, not rooted. The front-facing camera is working fine. But when I switch the Camera, Xoom display error message "Camera error Cannot connect to camera."

To fix the Camera issue, just doing a soft reset by pressing the power and volume up buttons at the same time for about 6 seconds. The Camera will work fine again.

Xoom camera scenes not working

When I tried the coupling scene in the Xoom camera, it seems to work fine. I could take my pictures, but didn't find the saved picture. After the camera switched to play-mode, Xoom just showed the previous picture.

Then I installed the astro file manager and found the taken pictures, including coupling, comic and panorama, are stored in the folder: /sdcard/sd/DCIM/Camera/. The pictures can be viewed in gallery and astro viewer.

Does anyone have a solution for this issue?

Flash doesn't recognize Xoom Front/Rear Camera

On my Motorola Xoom tablet, when I accessed a web video chat site, adobe flash doesn't recognize built in camera (Front and Rear). I didn't get the familiar adobe flash player settings dialog that asks me if I want to allow the website to access my camera and microphone. Flash won't allow me to send video. But the camera worked fine with the camera app.

I tried snapping a photo within Facebook and also a video and the camera couldn't be found.

This is a Xoom issue. The camera on Xoom may not be working via web sites. Adobe responded that "Microphone and Camera API's are not currently supported on Android Platform." Developers plan to add support when they are able to access these devices through the browser API.

Xoom camera photo has large swathes of green

After I took photo by Xoom camera with auto settings turned on, the taken photo had large swathes of green. Then I switched it to night mode and the picture was taken just fine. Shouldn't "Auto" mode take a picture with night mode enabled if theres not enough light? The camera auto detect settings not perfect.

To fix the camera issue, holding the up volume and pressing power at the same time until the Xoom resets. The hard reset won't erase any data nor apps, just clearing the Xoom and starting fresh.
