Try changing the white balance to match the lighting in the room. Bathrooms have very low light, and auto white balance can only adjust based on what the camera sensor is seeing. In a dimmer room that's all one color, it's going to be very hard to get the correct color temp.
Auto makes my the room I'm in now more yellow/orangish than it truely is. Picking a good white balance setting is the only real way to avoid this on any digital camera.

thanks alot , i was playing with settings and i had to change exposure contrast and white balance to match ,this is the first time i had to do this with a phone ,usually the other phones i had would match it automatic
If you're taking a lot of photos in the same space/lighting conditions, it's well worth the 20 seconds to select a few settings for that scene. Definitely choose WB, set ISO to 100 on sunny days outside, etc.
If you're using it for quick snapshops, facebook photos or MMS, Auto is generally good enough.

This pic is taken with a stock camera. It doesnt matter which White Balance I chose, the camera can never correct the green light. The lights and objects on windows on the right building have correct colors.

This pic is taken with Camera360 app at max ISO (1600) with flashlight constantly on. I noticed that the app flushes the photo with some red (already visible through the phone before pressing the shutter) and now the walls shows the correct color but the windows/curtains and the sky(the sky is the least of my worries) are overflushed with red. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt.
I know that camera phones are basically point and shoot and I shouldnt expect too much of it under low light conditions but I have a photo that shows rows of green lit light posts and I am not pleased
What should I do to fix this?
It truly kills me that the Motorola Razr does not have the spot metering feature like the Iphone 4.... To the point where I've considered making the switch.
For those that don,t know what spot metering is: When you're shooting a photo of something with contrasting light and dark, like a sunset or a picture in a dim room with a bright window, you touch the screen where you'd like the camera to auto adjust the exposure for. So for instance if you're trying to take a shot of something in the dark side, you would touch that area and the image would change to show more of the dark features and wash out the light area.
Is this feature a part of the app, kernel or hardware? I haven't seen many other Android devices that do it. My EVO used to have the feature... wtf man.
I have a problem with the pictures taken with flash active, sometimes the pictures have a blue tint.

I notice that also. I admittedly haven't taken many pics with this phone but the other day I shoot a picture of the snow outside. It had a definite blue cast. I haven't had a chance to explore further. BTW, it was set on auto HDR.

I can not reproduce the problem, but I can describe the conditions under which the photo came out with a blue tint:
A) INTERIOR - 2 people full figure, white background of back-wall. On the right, out of the scene, the light of a table lamp (light bulb)
B) INTERIOR - Height of the table, to a person standing behind the table, white tablecloth, a wall of white background and halogen lights on the wall
Flash Always ON and HDR auto
It seems to be a problem with the automatic HDR. In case of Blue tint, try turning it off, seems to fix the problem!!!
Hi guys
After doing lots of practicals in different condissions. I found some of the tricks to maximise the quality of picture captured by your smartphone.
So just follow the guide according to what condition you have.
1-- Day time(high to mid light)
Keep the iso value as low as possible.
keep flash onn.
Choose auto focus mode insted of macro mode.
Always try focusing on a light colored object insted of dark color.
Do not focus on plane objects as camera often did not resolve correctly.
if capturing an image with bright colors then you should be a litile bit far from that object or to take a closup have sone shade on that object from sun.
if inside room or in shade from sun set canera to clody mode insted of daylight.
2-- night time(high to mid light)
Keep the iso value as low as possible.
Choose auto focus mode insted of macro mode.
Always keep flash onn.
Always try focusing on a dark colored object insted of light color.
if capturing an image with light colors then you should maximise the exposure value.
if in a room with lighys onn use florosent mode.
3-- night mode(low light)
keep iso value high.
keep flash onn.
maximise the exposure value.
set camera to auto focus.
cloudy mode is perfect for your images.
do focus on object which you can see on screem in dim light.
never zoom your camera.
while closeup in dimlight keep exposure not too high.
4-- images of more than 6meter distance
these images can be clicked only in day time.
keep iso value not too low.
keep exposure maximum.
keep focus to infinity by tapping on any far off object.
set camera to daylight mode.
keep flash onn.
keeping flash onn reduces the shutter closing time. and this allow to get a sharp image without any shakes.
setting iso value to low reduces noice in images but it also reduces the brightness considrable.
exposure is the brightness and contrast of image.
and mode like daylight.cloudy and floresent are type of filters to get natural color in any situation of lights.
i hope this helped a lot.
many of you i think need this. hit thanks if it helped.
peace

I find the when I shoot in Superior Auto in low-light, many times there appear a violet / bluish haze on the left side (no flash fired). I find that switching to Night Portrait or Night Mode is too much of a hassle, ESPECIALLY when the conditions constantly change like going to a different place that's brightly lit or going inside a restaurant. Also, these modes tend to have motion blur.
Now I'm thinking of Manual Mode but basically got the same results as Superior Auto (probably. I'm just not good at tinkering with the settings).
Any tips?
Thanks!

In night conditions only use switching ISO settings,exposure and white balance.
For examle,when it has blueish scene turn the white change white balance to one in the midle if the list,and you will got more reallity look of scene you photographing.Also ISO settings dont go over 800 and you can sometimes change exposure ti minus to get a less noise.Try with those settings and you can get ok images.
