camera-ui2 uses the same auto-focus function as the stock

And I saw some wired auto-focus behavior with the stock camera-ui as well.

It is the same behavior, just tested.

Do you have syslog installed and can you look if there are
any error messages logged.

I know I do not like that too.

Yes, MohammadAG noticed this as well. I just didn't found time
to implement this.

Yes, you are right. And this is why every feedback is helpful.

Thank you for testing and reporting bugs/critics/suggestions.
