Why in any photo i take there are this blue dots ?
ps. Sorry for my bad language!
Undervolted?
Yes!
Do you have any kind of case or protection on the back that is covering up the camera lens? Even if it is transparent, it could be causing reflections on the lens elements. It will definitely be more pronounced when taking a picture of a direct light source, like the light bulb here.
If you do have a case, remove it and take the same picture again. Post some more examples, if you can, full resolution. :good:

Hey Folks,
I absolutely love my HD2 (used a Tilt before .
But it is not inteded to make pictures of faces in the dark.
What I mean is not only the problem which has been discussed (the face-color looks to bright).
I mean, that the faces you take a picture of look like the have been painted white, but only in some parts - you can see what i mean in the attached picture.
I think this is absolutely terrible. It makes the cam nearly unusable in the dark.
Please mention, that in the picture the face has normally the colour of the ear!!!
So anyone has a solution for this Sh*t?
Best regards!

I tried using a double coat of tarnished Scotch tape like I also did on my non-handy photo camera. It helps to remove the extreme shine and overdosed exposure a little. Of course it doesn´t solve the wrong light measurement of the flash.
I have the Nexus One Running on Cyanogen 5.0.4.1 and I love it
but the camera is giving me some problems,
For some reason I always have verticals lines on my photos and
it makes to photos look very bad! I've attached a photo so you can see
on what i am talking about.
I've tried to use different settings for the camera (2-3-5 mega pixel combined
with Normal - Fine - SuperFine quality) and it maybe helped a little but
still not very good.
Is there anything that can be done to solve this BIG issue?
I mean, Rom with a fix, some configurations I did not tried or there's nothing
to do - the camera is not great?
It was very surprising for me cause the developers of the phone
and camera module never checked this? the photos look really really bad.
Will appreciate some help....
Thanks,
Guy.
it's normal for camera phone to have the lines when the condition is not enough light...
Well, not really when a device also has a flash.
My photos are crisp although it's 3MP without flash...
in short...don't expect too much from a camera phone then it will be alright.
for me it's normal because the features exist in every single camera phones (nokia models) i've owned when taken picture in poor light condition.
did it have flash when you took those photos?
if not, did you try to enable the flash so it would always flash?
i don't have lines, but the flash not always goes off when it should on automatic (with pocket cams too) but usually the pics still worked out fine
did you try fx camera?
Flash on will improve the picture... but not necessarily good enuf... for good low light photos, you need to be able to play with the camera exposure settings which most phones don't have... else, you an external light source
I had once a digital camera with the same effect in the photos.
It was a problem in the CCD sensor. It had to be repaired.
Well try and wiping the phone or Nand restoring to a back up and check if the problem still is there.
maybe its a defective camera? i dont have an issue with the camera on my nexus and im running cm 5.0.4. i think it takes wonderful photos. here are a few

guy234 curious. does this happen with all of your pictures? or ones taken inside?
If its just inside, is the lighting fluorescent? Fluorescent lighting can cause these types of lines in photographs.

I am more concerned with the pink blob in the middle of your picture than the vertical lines LOL That pink blob is so annoying really wish they would fix this. It happens to everyone when taking pictures with a white background. Look at the wall, see how it is pink in the middle? That is a major problem with the camera on this phone for me.

It looks like you have some kind of clear cover over your camera lens. Do you have some kind of case on your phone?
Megapixel does not declare quality. Megapixel is a rating of picture size so changing the MP isn't going to make a difference. Try cleaning the camera lens with a Q-tip dabbed with rubbing alcohol.
I have never seen that on my pictures so it's not normal.
Also remember to post general questions in the right place.

Hi, I don't know how various settings affect the results. However, I wish to be able to take excellent photos and videos under different conditions. Are there any good apps that take better photos and videos than the stock Camera App? I am using GB. Thanks

Or 1up
Might be dependant on hardware cause of varying quality pics

what is wrong with pictures taken by the stock camera app? can you provide some example of a 'bad picture'?.
if you want an interface that is more DSLR like try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.lite
here are some of my pics, i dont feel that they are of bad quality for a 'phone camera'.

Perhaps it is better to talk about this via samples.
Any suggestion on better camera settings is appreciated.
I guess I may need an app that stores a set of preset settings
for taking photos/videos under different environments. Thanks.
In photo 1, I do not know why the ceiling lights are like that.
I changed various settings but there was no improvement.
In some cases, the overall color of the room changed.
In photo 2, the room appeared to be dark but it was not.
I changed the flash to auto, on along with changing other
settings. The room still appeared to be dark.
In photo 3, again, that place was not dark. Setting the flash
to auto or on did not help.
In photo 4, everything including the room appears to be somewhat yellowish.
In reality, the wall is white and the pillows are gray.

Thanks for the suggestion but I am not a professional. I don't know how various settings affect the results. By the time I have tested out various settings, things that I want to capture will have been gone.
ah now things are getting clearer . your pictures looks a little bit like something is wrong with the 'white balance' of your camera. so you can try different settings for the white balance, the default should be automatic (AWB). I'm not an photoexpert too, but maybe some one else can guide you further with this.
Thanks for pointing this out. I also tried white balance but it did not help. Perhaps I did not do it properly. Hoping somebody could provide some tips. Are the strong glares from the ceiling lights in photo 1 also caused by the white balance?

This effect on the ceiling lights is due to a hardware fault, there are no settings within the phone that can correct this. You can try, like me, and use photoshop. For me, its no problem because I have used photoshop for many years, but others are not so fortunate. This fault is well documented. Samsung know about it, yet have done nothing to correct it. The only way is to send the unit back to the retailer for a new unit. I tried three or four brand new units and they were all the same.
In general. The camera has limitations because of its size and proximity to other circuitry that may introduce noise etc. Its 8megapix with a tiny lens, so as is, I feel it does a pretty good job (apart from that pink dot that is). To get better pictures, consider post processing with photoshop. If that's not an option, and quite frankly I would not recommend purchasing it just for pics from any camphone, try the GIMP, its free and does an awful lot to enhance your pics. You can find the GIMP here www.gimp.org it will run on linux, windows and the Mac
Hope that helps
So, getting something like Camera ZOOM FX won't help.

Good question. I know the S2 does, and we all know about the Galaxy Note. I can see evidence of the problem on a slashgear.com presentation, and its that presentation that stopped me from going over to the S3. However, there are plenty of youtube tests where it seems pretty good. The S3 has only just been released, so it might be a while more before any issues become apparent. I think its one where you try before you buy. Personally, I'm not touching either the S3 or the 'Note until I have proof that the issue has been resolved.
Edit. The fault is commonly known as "the pink dot"
In photo 1 was the lens clean? Might sound obvious but even the slightest bit of grease or diet can affect how sources of light spear in photos. Typically in any photo I take where I light bulb or something similar is in the picture if the lens was not completely clean I got a similar effect as in photo 1

Well, there must be a lot of pink dirt around. My crappy clam phone must have pink dirt repellent, because no matter how greasy the lens gets, pics from it don't have a pink dot. Neither does my DSLR when the uv filter gets filthy, or my specs come to that. Sorry, but the dirt bit on this issue is a red herring. The camera has a defect.
I use UCam. A lot of "pro" settings and also some cool. And... you can disable shutter sound.

i think you should send the device to service/repair, because i think this is an hardware issue. i saw a lot of pictures taken by the note (not only my own device) and they are al just fine with the standard settings.
I just noticed that there is a protective film covering the back camera. Probably Samsung put it there to protect the lens. Do you think this is the cause to all of my problems? Am I supposed to remove it? For the first few days after purchase (3 weeks ago), the Note took excellent photos. As for last week and the week before that, it depends. The thin protective film has been there right from the beginning. Let's say the protective film covering the lens caused the pink dot, how do you explain why the cafe in photos 2 and 3 appeared to be dark whereas in reality, it was not. Also, photo 4 looks yellowish overall.
Hi,
Protective film would most likely create the effect on pic one. (which would be visible when a direct light source or reflection is in the frame.)
Pic two - could be a metering issue. Try changing the (cog wheel =>) metering setting and / or exposure level.
Yellowish photo is the result of incorrect "white balance". Change the white balance setting to incandescent.
I'm using both the stock ICS camera and camera zoom fx. On my previous phone the fx produced much better photos than the stock one. On my G - Note I don't see much difference.

Yes you are supposed to remove it. It does say so in the instructions that came with your phone. Check the camera after you have done this.
Anyone have this problem? In good light the camera its fine, indoor the with white images apeear one Pink circle.

I just noticed lat night the back camera lense has a plastic film with a circular whole in it. I think it is to prevent the lense from being scratched without distorting pictures during demos.

Hello, I have this problem for a while. My phone is taking really bad pictures under fluorescent light (see the 1st pic). To solve this I have applied "tootpaste solution" which removed the AF filter from camera lens, because pictures were all blurry and brighter but it did not help. However the only solution is to covr the head of my phone like a cap. (see the 2nd pic)
Now the question is whether I have to change my rear camera or lens protector to solve this. Thanks for your answers.
Phone is full stock?
did you try to change the white balance in the camera app for taking pictures under flourescent light?
