Hello all, i have a d802 (indian version) 16gb. I recently got my screen replaced at the lg service center and asked them about my primary camera showing hazy photos. I had done some research prior to asking (about the camera having a purple film which can be removed). When i asked the service technician about this film he said my phone doesnt have it and i will have to get the whole camera replaced to get normal photos. Is this true? Do i not have the purple film that can be washed off with cleaners (tried using acetone and toothpaste to remove the film but that didnt work).
Will i have to get the camera changed or is there anyway to get around me spending $50 and have my camera like it was before.
Id also like to add that when i look at the camera i do see a purplish tinge. Lots of scarthes too.

Hi everyone, this is my first post in the xda-developers forum!
I dropped my S4 yesterday and a few hours later when I wanted to take a picture with the camera I noticed this horizontal line that goes across the screen (it even casts a shadow underneath the line). At first I thought I might've cracked the camera lens but I shined the camera under a light at all different angles and I can't see any crack. Can someonw help me on this so that I can determine whether I just need to clean the sensor or buy a complete camera replacement?
Try a different camera app. If it's the same then it might be the camera.
That doesn't look like a crack though. Even so, it still might be something case by the impact.

it's definitely inside since you dropped as you said.
go to your nearest samsung customer service. :good:
Had the Note 4 a bit over a week now and I just noticed something with my camera.
The rear-facing camera always has a small black spec 'stuck' on like there's some debris stuck to the camera. It's not removable by any means... at least without opening up the lens. I can't tell if it's a defective camera or some manufacturing debris from the factory. I don't see how it could've gotten in there from me since the camera is sealed. To state the obvious, yes I've looked at the outer camera cover and done all I can to see if it's removable but it's not. This is probably inside the cover either on or between the lens and the cover.
The spec is only visible at 0% magnification up until 1.4x magnification. Anything above that, the debris is gone from the view. Here's some pictures and a video I took on a white piece of scratch paper. Used the S-Pen to point out the dark spec in red color. This does not move. Always in the same spot relative to the upper lefthand quadrant of the phone display.
So is this a defect or debris? Wondering if I should just take it back to Best Buy for a replacement.

My guess is, that if it was a debris, it would be out of focus, since it would be too close to the sensor. Usually debris looks like a flare and it looks round. Your's looks very crisp. I noticed in your video, that when the camera is focusing, that thing stays perfectly visible. So I think it's a problem with the sensor itself. Like a portion of the sensor cant capture those pixels.
I would take it back and have them change the phone asap.

I think your guess is correct. I stopped by Best Buy on the way home and the Samsung rep said pretty much the same thing you mentioned. They'll replace it, I just gotta go back with the original box and everything to get it replaced.
Thanks!

If you can, open the box in front of the Samsung rep, to check for any scratches on the aluminum bezel. Mine arrived with two pretty big, but I was to bothered to go get a replacement. Also make sure the home button click sound is normal and not loud. I ve heard some people complain about that!
I have a Samsung galaxy s5 and I'm having issues with front and back camera, the quality is too low same in the back and front camera I'm even getting watermarks on the front camera as you can see in this photo. The phone is not fake it's original the screen is quite scratched and the back camera case is also very scratched but I don't really think that's the reason I'm getting the quite-like 3mp camera quality lol.
Is there anyway I can fix this?
Marks on the camera lens would cause the spots all over the screen, they'll likely be tiny and maybe hard to see on the lens
Have you set the MP quality to max in the camera settings? (Cog at the top of your image)

Yes of course I did, it's 16MP.
I don't get the watermarks on the back camera, only on the front one.
The phone also has one problem: Sometimes it turns on normally, the sound of booting can be heard but it doesn't show any sign on the screen. Can this problem be fixed without changing the whole digitizer?
Well that's pretty obvious, if there are watermarks using one camera and not the other, then there are watermarks on one camera lens, and not the other... (Or a faulty front camera)
Long story short my glass on the camera lens was broken last week.I sent the phone to a service center and they replaced the whole back panel of my s8 + with original.Now i have a strange suspicion that something is not ok with the camera.When i take photos in direct sunlight there are some strange flares in the images, can anyone test if your s8 + does the same thing , because i dont think prior of the replacement my photos looked like that. Please take a look at the images

I don't think that's very unusual. Pointing any camera at the sun you will always get some flare.
I know that, photography is my hobby but i thought that in this case after the repair they are pretty huge?

Tried reset , clearing data and cache of camera, Updated to latest sw
It will be from a spec of broken glass in the camera module.
Fixed many phones with same issue.
Remove the glass cover and use can air or carefully shake/tap phone on table to release any lodged fragments of glass.
It's stopping the image stabilizer from moving correctly.

visited service center and they denied to repair it and said phone's camera is opened by you. Can any one tell me where it get it replaced in Chandigarh , INDIA ?
You must done a bad job for them to see you changed it!
I'm telling you it's trapped glass or other small obstructions in the camera module.
Or you've damaged the actual lens on the camera

Was this deliberate or accidentally smashed it? I'm having the same problem you had with your g6.
