Back camera of My x compact was broken today. Unfortunatelly, there is no back camera for the Phone. Wondering that, are the cams of Xperia x and x compact the same?

My girlfriend has the Droid X and believes that there is some application out there to make the screen a mirror and use the (apparently existent) front camera. Is this true? If so, any advice on how to make it happen? Thanks?
Incorrect.
No front camera.
Best mirror = Screen off.
Hey all I have owned a Moto X (republic wireless) for almost a year now. Just a great phone, can't say enough about it. But it does have a few niggling quirks that i'm wondering if the Z1c might solve. Plus I have to switch phones now since my sprint coverage is horrible since I moved.
So this is mainly a shout out to anyone who has owned or had the chance to test the two phones. My first issue with the Moto X is its camera, its okish but only that. I would love to get something that could consistently take good shots(a little tweaking is ok). The Moto X still has very extreme color shift from shot to shot even after its camera app updates. I took a couple pics of a sea craft the other day and the colors shifted from the smiley face yellow you see here to a very pale yellow in just a few seconds. Just annoying. So thoughts on the two cameras?
performance wise it does not really matter to me. The Z1c of course has the higher end tech, but both seem very smooth and have solid battery life. screen size is close enough and I prefer smaller to larger at this point. I don't game, so the GPU is not a big deal.
I do like having the SD card slot in the Z1c although I still have not put over 10 GB on my Moto X, so its not a huge deal. Still if the camera on the Z1c was adequate and could replace my PS that could change fast.
The Moto X(XT1053) does have all of Tmobile/AT&T bands covered while the Z1c is missing a major AT&T LTE (700) band. Thats a minor issue since I will be using the phone on Tmobile, or AT&T MVNOs which typically only have access to HSDPA+ anyways.
Price is very close on the two right now at about $400 each. The Moto X does seem to go on sale a lot though for around $300-$350.
So any thoughts/recommendations on the two phones? Anything I should know about the Z1c as far as issues/complaints? I have read about the flash bleed issue, but I don't mind replacing the back with glass, even though I would end up putting a carbon fiber skin case on it anyways.
1. If i had Moto X it would be long dead cause of water damage.
2. Z1C camera is actually really good if you figure out manual mode (see downsides) and with 64gig sd card you don't have to worry running out of space doing that awesome video.
3. I've never seen a phone with so good battery life as Z1C - my average is 3 days standby with 5 and ½ hours screen on. It actually feels good to see everybodys battery dead at the end of day but i still have over 65% left
4. Here in Estonia we have fairly good LTE coverage but i tend not to use it cause it drains way faster than 3G+ which is fast enought.
Downsides of Z1C.
You have to replace plastic back to fix flash bleed (only issue when doing photos in dark) and replace horrible ASF on front with tempered glass = no warranty
You need to find best Manual camera settings cause superior auto sometimes fails altho it does excellent photos too.
I don't have other issues honestly, i would get the Compact, well i did and it's the first phone ever i am totally satisfied with.
This summer Z3 Compact will be launched with Z2 feathures. Keep that in mind.
I've owned galaxy s4,s2, htc one and some weird LG phone that had buttons on the back.
I currently own both the Moto X on republic wireless and an unlocked Z1C. I agree with the above points about the photos and the battery life blows the Moto X out of the water. The only thing i miss from the moto x is the active display, i find myself picking up the Z1C without pushing the power button to see the time.
Hello guys.
My parents gifted me a brand new Moto G5 Plus (2GB RAM/Dual sim) bought from Chile.
My only two android phones had software issues (I got them for free so no complaints) so therebefore I never care so much about them. Both were small and resistants (S3 Mini and Moto G LTE - xt1040).
The S3 Mini ended with the camera blurred because got stripped with the use. My Moto G works like a charm, many strips on the screen but nothing important, the phone fallen a lot times but never broke .
Now this is a new level for me, giant screen. It scares me, any care you recommend me? I don't want to use with screen protectors or anything, I really hate them.
Also, I read that the screen has gorilla glass, whats about the back camera? Flash and the whole circle has any protection or should I take so much care?
Anyway the phone is amazing but I really want lineage os, I hope we get it soon!.
EDIT:
Which launcher comes with the phone? I saw on internet that has pixel launcher but its a lot different to the pixel launcher that comes with google pixel phone (I have the same on my Moto G and it isn't transparent when you search all apps)
EDIT2:
Is there anything to change about camera settings? My photos doesn't look good, colors are darkness and the definition looks very bad, even doing focus. I didn't tried outside so maybe is the light inside my home.
The only thing I changed is the aspect ratio. I am using 4:3 because of 12 MP, not sure if I should use it or change again to 16:9 (9.1MP).
I attached a photo.

Take Care of camera bump as it get lot of scratches without bumper case
So ok our phone look a lot like an IPhone 7 plus, and have pretty much the same dimensions. Same position for the camera and fingerprints sensor instead of Apple's logo.
IPhone 7 plus: 158.2 x 77.9 x 7.3 mm
Mi A1 155.4 x 75.8 x 7.3 mm
Would those 3 and 2 millimeters be really noticeable if we place our amazing device in an Apple's case?
Iphone does not have IR blaster.. Iphone has LED Flash on different side of camera Its just not possible to use case from iphone to xiaomi. just compare photos of sides and you will see
Oh when I looked at the picture I just saw that the sensors and the flash were switched but for me it would just take place ?
And I don't use the ir blaster so I don't mind
3 mm and 2 mm is a lot for a case. Use a ruler to get an idea.
I don't really know what to think about your question though!
iPhone 7 accessories for mi a1? Ouch ... ?
Hey Guys,
I got a Moto G5 Plus (4GB RAM Version) last may for my Mom.
She used the phone rough with a case and somehow broke the rear camera.
Now the camera wouldn't focus at all. It's not like the camera tries to focus and fails, but it doesn't start to focus at all.
All the images are blurry and now I'm thinking to get the rear camera replaced.
anyone has any idea how much would it cost at the Motorola Service Centers or If I get it done by locals?
Any reccomendations?
