so i traded my LG xenon for a HTC fuze...but to my amazement it had no freakin' camera...i thought it wasnt a big deal, but i really want a camera for my fuze..the back battery part is covered, and there is a rubber covering where the camera would be...i took that off and it was nothing...is there a way to add a camera on the fuze?
Are you sure it is a Fuze? Fuzes come with a 3.2mp digital camera built in.... Does the battery cover just cover up the camera? I am jsut trying to figure out if you actually have a fuze, and not something else...
att has always had a non camera version for their ppc's for gov use. go back and ask for the right one

Umm, seeing as he "traded" some guy his old phone for this one, I don't think that is a viable option....
whoops my bad i thought he meant traded in at the store like a return
Yeah as a matter of fact I traded it with some guy on craigslist.
I guess the features, wifi..gps-a...the community and "hacking" the
phones ROM is awesome, but I want a camera. Unless someone wants to buy
it off me for 160 shipped, in the USA only though haha.
But is there a way I could add a camera? any Opinions or thoughts would be helpful.
Anyone else noticing a pink circle in the center of their photos and video? I took a picture of my wall.
I found a thread in the Desire HD forum that someone else was experiencing the same. hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11425704#post11425704
Seems like the HD2 and HD7 also had similar issues with their camera. The HD2s issue was resolved with a software update. Not sure about the HD7.
Here's the only shot I have taken with mine so far. I don't see a pinkish circle. But then again, I am not exactly a color fiend.
It's only really noticeable on white backgrounds. But now that I know it's there, I can see it in every picture that I've taken.

Just tested it on my white wall and did notice it, but its nothing too major to complain about you dont notice it any pictures with color in it
Yeah, I'm starting to think its not that big of a deal.

It is, it is behind the Ft. Worth PD parking garage that I park in, facing the Trinity River. I've not waled down there yet to see what is going on with it. I think it may be an old jail, based on the construction.
I don't have the pink... but I have to admit the pictures don't come out very well at all. They seem really yellowy. I am taking pictures side-by-side with the wife's iphone 4 indoors at night and the pictures are very yellow. Horrible really. Anyone else seeing issues with this camera? One would think it would be better.
I saw somewhere on the T-Mo GSII section that there was a thread of about 50 pages of people complaining that their screens, under varying brightness settings and to varying degrees, displayed some vertical "ghost" lines running up and down the screen..
I picked up a Skyrocket earlier today at the AT&T store and was disappointed to see that the screen was doing just that. Hence, me searching and finding this thread. After some thinking, I went back to the store and exchanged the Skyrocket for the Vivid, which I am even more displeased with, although for other reasons (call quality, weight, etc. Although I'm going to use it for a few days to see how it goes). I just wanted to try it out of curiosity, a restocking fee is alright for me should I decide to go back to the Skyrocket.
Has anyone else experienced this with a Skyrocket or GSII in general? I was surprised to have searched this general section and not found anything about it. The display model in the store exhibited the same "ghost" lines as well.
There is no reason to pick up any other smartphone as of now if you own a sgs2, assuming your on at&t or even international, you would have the dual core exynos, which out performs anything on the market as of now, even the skyrocket.

That... has nothing to do with my question.
I'm not asking for specs and numbers and names. I know what all of it is, and I don't care - it's about what I want and like. And I would hope others are able to do as they please as well.
ANYWAY. No one has had any screen troubles?
I've never seen any lines on my I9100, nor heard of others having the issues described in that thread. At minimum brightness, in absolute darkness, I can see a few blobs on a black screen, but even then I have to really look for them or I won't notice. The usual complaints I've seen about I9100 screens are yellowish tint and sometimes burn-in, though I haven't experienced either of those personally.
You probably already asked in the T-Mo forum since you linked a thread from it, but I'm pretty sure the Skyrocket uses the same screen as the T989, so imo you're more likely to find useful feedback there. I'm assuming you're only interested in LTE AT&T phones, so you're probably f'd, but the I777 uses the same screen as the I9100 where I've never heard of that particular problem.
I just got the Skyrocket on Sunday and I'm having the same issue with the vertical lines. Looks pretty terrible on dark images/backgrounds in low ambient light.
I searched a ton yesterday on Google and this is first place I found someone complaining of the same problem. I can't decide whether it's good or bad to know someone else is seeing the same issue.
I have 2 international i9100's.
They both have this issue, one is more noticeable than the other, but as you say usually on low brightness/dark images. Suspect it is a result of the manufacturing process of the S-AMOLED Plus screen and if they haven't fixed it by now in the skyrocket (almost surprising but at the same time not really) they aren't going to.
For me it doesn't bother me a whole ton as I don't see it most of the time but it does kind of suck lol.
I got an international. What Anandtech calls persistence bothers me,
The situation reminds me of the early large size lcd tv days. Lines, clouding, uneven this that. In the future it will be all fixed but its not today.
No issues here.. Our only issue on our screen is the blobs, yrllowish tint and "burins"..

Someone needs to put a sticky to keep Skyrocket discussion out of these forums.
The device is a Galaxy S II in name only and nothing else.
Shame on Samsung for diluting their brand like this... The ****rocket is going to ruin their reputation in the USA, as if AT&T's mangling of the stock ROM for the I777 didn't already.
my rogers s2 has the same issue as well
I heard about this issue before I got my SII (not Skyrocket), and even knowing about the problem and using the phone a lot at the lowest brightness I have never noticed it on my screen.
I have however noticed the yellow tint problem mentioned above, and I use Screen Adjuster to compensate for it by adding more blue.
I have the i-9100M (Canada) and the SGH-I727R (same as AT&T Skyrocket) and I don't have any issue with the screen. Had both dark and white background and didn't see any issues.

same here, i have the same model and i have no issues at all.
Ohh wow!!! another android device, all of you have an old model device again hahaha
Moved to proper section
I have the same problem with vertical lines on the screen. I bought my Skyrocket from Best Buy on release day and noticed the screen issue in lowest brightness on Monday. I exchanged it for another. This one has the issue as well, but it's not as bad. My wife has the i777 and hers has the vertical lines to a very minute extent; you don't even notice unless you're really looking for it.
hmmm, am i one of the few lucky individuals who do not have this issue? Or am i just blind? Is there something specific i have to do to replicate the issue? Ive tried looking at many different images, color combinations, at different brightness settings, different ambient light settings (from outside in the sun to inside a pitchblack closet) and i have not seen what everyone has been describing? I have a Captivate, Infuse, and euro I9100 (water damaged), that I have tried to compare them to, and my skyrocket looks exactly the same. I believe the Infuse uses the same screen as well and ive not a problem with that, and the cappy still looks prestine minus the (plus) in the Super AMOLED. Even the nonfunctioning water damaged i9100 displayes weird ass colors and crap on the screen but its finest looking garbage ever.

Mine aren't that noticeable, but can be seen easily when I launch xda app. The brown start screen makes them jump out.

Now on my Skyrocket I have the vertical lines and my screen is so freaking blue its pissing me off. I also have a Euro I9100 and comparing the Skyrocket to that is night and day difference. I will try exchanging it Saturday and see if the other one will be better. I will take some side by side pics later tonight and post them.

Yeah I just returned an ATT SGS2 yesterday for the skyrocket and this screen was pissing me off the moment i left the store. The screen on the Orig sgs2 was probably the best mobile display I had ever seen but this shyt is for the birds, I'm thinking of exchanging and if the second one isnt any better then going with the vivid!!!

I know it's for the evo, but I didn't know if it would still fit on the tbolts lens since they are similar.

Since as usual no one wants to answer your question because they think you are inferior because they made some bull**** for a smartphone.... Yes, I don't see why not, as long as the len's fit. My roommate is going to school for photography and he doesn't see why that won't work, the only thing you really have to worry about is the fact that your phone is taking pictures through a lens that isn't installed on your phone. Just try it with correct lens position, you shouldn't have a problem. Let me know how it goes if you do try it.

I know some people have used that lens with the droid incredible. I think it will work with any htc phones since most of their cameras are identical.
I just bought the S7, and I noticed that the front camera is just bad.
It looks like the focus is off. it's so bad that it's even worst than my old S4 front camera.
here are examples:
imgur.com/a/bUcq2
the S4 are the left ones, and S7 are the right ones. at the S4, you can see each individual hair (on the eyebrows or the beard), but at the S7 everything is just blurry.
is my device defective, or it's just how the front camera functions on the S7?
I have seen many people reporting this issue, so I really wonder if returning the device and getting another one will do any good.

well...
I just don't get how this issue doesn't get more buzz. I mean, other people don't notice, or just don't care enough of selfies?
Also, I'm pretty sure there won't be any software fix for that - 6 months have passed since release.
So basically I bought a costly flagship phone with only rear camera- cuz the front camera is simply embarrassing, I cant use it.
There is a thread here on xda about this problem, but no one came up with a solution. Some said that models made in Vietnam (such as mine) have a bigger focus issues than those made in Korea. The problem is that focus on the front cam is set to infinity, so it doesn't focus close objects correctly. Some people went to samsung and got 3-4 new devices and all were having the same issue.
I think that it COULD be fixed with an software update, because I found people talking about it on various forums. But until that happens (I hope), try holding it 30-40cm away and it will be decent. Turn off beauty face aswell.
