Samsung Camera - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I got the at&t s4 and was messing around with the camera and noticed at first every single shot was blurry, and turned on anti-shake. However, I'm noticing that any shot I zoom in is just really not good quality. I know to expect not the best quality, but it still concerns me. Anyone else getting this?

I don't have the S4, but you might wanna remove the plastic protective cover of the camera.

Samsung Galaxy S4 camers

So I received my s4 yesterday and was messing with the camera and got some really blurry photos. I changed anti-shake and it kinda worked. I'm noticing whenever I zoom in, the pictures are more grainy than I expected. Are there other settings and am I missing something?

Mine feels very sold in the phone. I dont think thats normal, that it moves around..
Shouldn't move. Go RMA your phone under warranty.
Mine also moves and it keeps on showing camera failed when I start camera app.

[Q] Creaky Battery Cover?

Anyone else have this? I am finding if I apply pressure just below the camera and above the samsung logo I get a creak noise. Seems to happen when I'm holding it a certain way.
No. Tight fit.
The home button is sticky & fidgety.
Nope, not at all.

I had the back cover on and off a few times now and its not doing it anymore so I guess it was just not fitted right.
Thanks for your input

Quick window free case. .

As some of you noticed the lg g2 came with a free quick window case. Which I personally really really like. Just when the flap goes over the screen. It never stays on the screen... Its always raised. So its not stable and it can turn on the device by accident. Just wanted to know if anyone is having same issues or have a solution ( if you know what I am on about anyway)

same issue here
Mine didn't come with the case...

No free case here. But then again att likes to repackage their phones and take out all the extra goodies a phone would normally come with.

You have to break it in. It takes about a week or so.

After about a month, it's still a bit raised for me. I was hoping it'd be magnetized or weighted.
It's nice to see i'm not the only one with this problem, even though it is a pretty minor issue to me anyway, it is REALLY annoying :/
you would of though they would have put a magnet on it or something.
Yes it will work after you open and closer it about 100 times. I also layed a book on mine eventually it works as intended

Wondering if it's the plastic lens cover!! Front camera is fine.

If you want better camera pics try xdabbebs or jishnus camera which both improve stock camera a lot

Mine is having the same issues. See my thread. I am starting to think my camera is not defective but rather the camera is garbage compared to the s4.

I tried xdabbebs when my phone was rooted and for some reason after installing that it's sent me in to boot loop lol

Wow those are really ****ty pics. My G2 takes excellent photos.
Maybe your unit is a dud or any scratches on the glass cover?
Here is a blind camera test, G2 (Uses Sony's Exmor sensor) scored better than GS4

No point in creating multiple threads with the same reason/bug

I've emailed Lg they ask for some sample photos bet they say they look ok lol

lol... btw just out of curiosity, which camera app do you use? stock or aftermarket?
i'm asking you this because i get better images when i use either xdabbeb modded camera app (you can find it here under developer's area subforums) or DSLR Camera Pro (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera) which gives me even more settings to fiddle with...
you can also try some other camera apps like
Camera FV-5
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.lite
or MX camera...
Stock I don't have it uprooted fv-j5 just bought it
