You need to open ur phone and clean it by a clorh!
But do it only if u have hardware skills!
Proceed with CAUTION.

dude the same thing happened to me
gave it to the service centre 3 times and they cleaned it,sealed some something,..
but it has never recovered , the remains dust free for about 1-2 weeks after they clean it at the service centre and then the dust reappears
so i have stopped using the camera, also i dont require camera at all,as i have it on my other devices
well i did not have any black spots, for me everthing was hazy and foggy

Thank you for helping. Yesterday I asked to service centre how much they want. It was about 8-9 dollars. So tomorrow it will be fixed. Again, thank you

I've been through the same. Two times the service center just cleaned the lens and gave it back. The dust used to collect again in two weeks. Then I specifically told them to replace the part (most of the back body you see after you remove the back cover). Now, seems to be fine. I think certain units have a manufacturing defect.

Weird problem with my TouchPro's camera.

I've encountered this weird problem with the camera. The phone is brand new. When trying to take pictures, in the viewfinder and the pictures taken, it was blurry and ghostly, something exactly like this:

I have tried so many ways including hard-resetting, flashing to new ROMs and whatnot. Still none works. Any suggestions, please, I don't wanna send te phone all the way to HTC Turkey for repair, as HTC USA claims that my phone's serial number belong there. Thank you all.
I had a similar problem with my Fuze's camera. When I would take photos, it would look like static (meaning the image would not come out at all) but it would be colored exactly the way your photo is colored (the greens, purples, and oranges).
That phone also had a dead pixel on it, so I ended up returning it to an AT&T store, and they gave me a replacement. The problem did not exist on the new replacement phone, so i'm guessing its an issue with the camera.

Thank you for your confirmation, I guess I've gotta try to contact HTC then since I've got my TouchPro on E-Bay.

my step dad had this problem on his iphone and he did a hard reset and it fixed the problem but i would say normally if this happens it is a problem with the ccd so i would try hard reset and dont' load any apps if it still does not work then RMA it

Front camera not aligned properly in phone. Anyone else?

I know this seems like a pretty small thing to be concerned about, but I just wanted to ask if anyone else has this issue or if they have resolved it. The front camera on my nexus 5 is not aligned properly when looking at the lens through the opening in the glass.

It doesn't affect pictures taken with the camera but it is off centered so much the lens is almost partially hidden and it is very noticeable. At first I thought I could live with it but I had some free time and just for fun decided to open it up and see if I could move the camera at all and I found that the whole board/bracket that the camera mounts to is out of alignment and am now wondering if that is something to worry about.
I also have a slightly loose power button and wonder if maybe the board being out of alignment could be the cause of that as well. Other than the power button and the front camera I have not noticed any other ill effects. Anyone else have this issue or input?

Ocd?
Your ocd is freaking you out? Maybe you should send it back to Google to fix that but it's a waste of time, and about the power button I have the same problem and you can solve it putting a little piece of paper between the button and the eboard
I'm definitely not feeling that worried about it. Like I said, everything seems to be working fine and I only bothered to open it up because I was bored and I thought it would be a fun project. I was mostly just surprised to see that the whole board inside the phone was out of alignment and not just the camera and was curious as to whether or not this was common. I did end up wedging some paper in between the power button and it seems to have alleviated that problem. As for the camera, it's a shame it doesn't seem I can fix it but I don't think it will really bother me.

[Q] LCD Glass unsticking

I have had the nexus 5 for about 6 months now, and i'm starting to notice a part of the glass coming off. The area around the volume buttons to the center of the screen makes a sticking sound when pushed down on, and i can feel it pushing in a little bit. It's most noticeable on the edge directly next to the volume buttons. There are no visible cracks as far as i can tell. Phone works fine besides this. Should I be worried and replace the screen or just let it be? I don't notice it if i don't push down too hard.
Never had this happen to me on a phone before. Thanks!
That definitely shouldn't be happening.

It's not very visible and pictures don't show the problem.
It feels like the glue in that area is just dried up in that area and isn't holding down the screen correctly. but its only a small area so right now its not too big of a deal.

Ask for google support, they will replace it. Mine was losing the back cover letters and google replaced it
Hi all. Wasn't sure if I should reply to this old thread or start my own...
I have a Nexus 5 that's over 2 years old. So no warranty. It looks like my screen is starting to come off in the bottom right corner. I think it's just the glass. Take a look at the attached pic/video and let me know what you think I could/should do. You can see I can move it by pressing on it.

It works fine otherwise. Touch/display etc seems all fine. I don't care about this problem if it stays as-is, but I'm worried it will get worse and come off further.
I'm thinking a bit of super glue would do? .
Thinking the sameā€¦

[Q] Graphic problems with p5100 10.1"

Hi,
I got this weird problem and im not sure is this a hardware problem or not. For example. when using menus with white background, the background goes partly blue. Sometimes the graphic error is only blue lines in some part of the white background.
but when checking one option in same menu the background turns normal or atleast there is some change in the background. So these errors reacts only when changing options. And theyre always in the same position when going the same menu.
Also when using camera. the view is messed up a bit. there is a clear line somewhere in the picture when going dark to bright. With my english its hard to explain especially when i dont have any idea what is causing this problem.
Below are two attachments that explains the problem much clearer than i can write:

}
And before you ask. Yes, it has dropped and i have replaced the glass. But i got it with broken glass so i dont know was it like this before it dropped and the previus owner couldnt tell either.
Any possible solutions?
Thank you in advance!
Sounds like a hardware issue, just for the heck of it I would open it up and check the ribbon cable to the digitizer/screen, it could be loose.
Pp.
Checked it. Same problem. Tried to change brightness level, hard reset, rooting etc with no luck.
Its just so weird that in some situations the screen looks totally normal. only these few situations cause errors in the screen.
Hmmm, there are dialer codes that are used on phones that run a series of tests to check screen performance and output, don't know if this can be done on a tablet, but I would research it.
The only other time I heard of this was on a phone that recovered from falling in a toilet, the phone was dismantled and cleaned and assembled and it worked fine for over a year, the only glitch was an occasional color spasm on the screen similar to what you discribe.
Pp.
Thanks for the tip! Need to look for those codes when i get back home. I removed the logic board and cleaned it with denat. alcohol. No visible damage at least! trying to assembly it back later today. I decided to order a new LCD flex cable. Its the cheapest part to change.
No luck with the codes i found. after cleaning still same graphical problems. Now i can only wait the new flex cable and hope it will fix those errors.
Anyways thanks for replys and suggestions. :good:

Lost full screen - black bar at bottom of screen

Afternoon all.
As per title. After installing Renovate 3.0 today, I noticed that I've "lost" about 5mm at the bottom - just a thin black bar under the display.
Thought the ROM was the culprit, but I've reflashed 5 or 6 Rims and it's the same.
I've tried all display resolutions, immersive mode, different themes, clean installs, soft reboots, too many restarts, toggled everything I can think of- the same. All screens, all apps.
Driving me absoeffinglutely nuts. Any help appreciated!
Have you tried flashing back to the factory firmware?
Take a screenshot, does the black bar appear in the screenshot? If not, the display panel is broken, if yes, it's a software glitch

No, doesn't show in screenie, didn't expect it to. Find it hard to believe it's physical damage - never dropped it, Otterbox Strada wallet, but somehow the display is FUBAR.
Seen one similar problem after googling, on the S8, no obvious cause or solution.
Going to wipe everything including system and all storage, flash a stock in Odin and cross my fingers.

Very odd, if it appeared right after you installed the ROM, a software problem is possible. But I still wonder how it's possible for a part of the screen to render on a screenshot, but not on the actual screen.
