[Q] Camera focus issue - HTC Sensation

Hi there.
Since we have working android 4.3 builds for our sensation (I think it's since then, not sure) the camera does somehow not work properly.
Sometime focus is fine, but most of the time I'm able to see how the picture gets clear and then they get blurred again while focusing. It's the same for auto focus and manual focus.
Is that a general issue? Does somebody maybe know how to fix it?
Thanks in advance

Appareil photo &Galerie KitKat

I'm using focal, even there it doesn't work.
It's easy to reproduce if you try to take a picture of a written piece of paper. The text will be blurred most of the time.

I have "very" tiny red dots
Since i Got my Sensation, I had never take a 100% good pic but, trying to get better quality its like an hardware issue. Clean the lens will not change anything

That's not what I mean. I mean it looks like that picture I attached.
It is unreadable, though there is no zoom. While focusing I can see it gets clear, but then it goes back to that.

I think we got a bad sync Between Camera app and Flash.
With better brightness the picture is better but in the darkness the flash can't be at good time to make better picture
Just what i think since i got Sensation

I don't know how all of that works, but I didn't use flash for that picture and I remember that with stock rom and and 4.2.2 based rom it worked good.

Error with front facing camera?

Hi, something that's very irritating to me is the front facing camera issue when you take a picture... you snap a pic and when you go to view it, the picture is reverted in the opposite direction.. can someone take a pic and see what im talking about?
Yeah it does it on mine as well. Appears to be a mirror image of what you are looking at on the screen when the picture is taken.

Yes and then it turn when the pic is completed which is annoying.. that needs to be fixed
sadly this has been the deal with HTC (all?) phones with a front facing camera since the MyTouch4G came out. The software will mirror you so that you see what you'd see in a mirror. this is just plain stupid & I wish it'd show you the mirror image but not actually process the picture that way & leave it like it should be.
So people, there arent any settings to fix this issue?

Backwards photos?

Can people please check on there Nexus that when you take a PIC with the front camera the image comes out as a reverse of what is shown on the screen?
I have done a reset and Still the same, I am none rooted and stock.
Many thanks.

Yes, this is by design. In effect the picture that you get from the front camera is reversed in order to make it as if someone else had taken the picture in the normal fashion. If you really want the mirror image, just use the image editor to flip it.
Pretty much every front facing camera phone I've had done this. Actually it doesn't come out in reverse. It comes out correct. The image is reversed on the screen. This is so its familiar like a mirror. If you've got chocolate on your face, its easier to guide yourself looking in a mirror

does anyone experiencing this problem? when i focus on an object, it focuses then it's blurry. everytime i wanna take a picture that's close to me (not macro), it doesn't focus. so i need to be far enough to take the picture then come close slowly to take the picture with focus. any fix for this? thanks in advance!

could you post some screenshots and perhaps point out what you are trying to do
i dont think i quite understand your issue,
if you are refering to not being able to focus in generall, ive typically found that its good to use touch focus then pick an objec that has easy to see edges

Camera issues

Hey guys,
My wife and I have the same phone.
I've noticed something odd since getting my.s7 (exynos) . The white in the photos I take often have a yellow tint whereas the photos my wife tales of the same thing are more natural and have no yellow. I've tried messing.with the camera setting and brightness slide from in the app, And it helps a bit. However, I feel that my.wifes phone tales better photos. Has anyone else had a similar issue with the camera?
I tried uploading some photos but cannot do so from I the app.
More details please. ROM, kernel, etc? Also this is a wrong place to create this thread

Well I was rooted on nougat and was using superstock,superman rom,helios (I think that's the name of the rom) and the issue persisted. I went back to stock mm . Issue was there too. Went back to stock nougat and kernel and issue is there sometimes. It almost seems like my camera is over sensitive to light but not sure .
I have images but again cannot upload via the app .
Here's an example
The chairs are an egg white colour but in some of the photos they come off as being yellow in the same light. I really don't get it .
Especially here
Ps-where do I put the thread?

if the chairs are white and show up yellow.....how come your shoes aren't showing yellow?

Not sure man. tested it again last night against my wife's camera and she noticed it too. Its only specific things under lowlight. We can reproduce it on hers if the ccamera trieds to focus on an object in the foreground , then the background becomes yellowish, but mine does it alone. Ive messed about in rpo mode and it seems to go away, but I dont wanna have to manually set the camera preferences everytime I take a photo.
Final update. Took it to my retailer and they wanted to send it in for hardware check. Sold the phone instead and went back to Nexus 5x .

Yeah, I noticed the same bug when I took a photo of my grey sofa today. Strange and irritating.
Hope the camera will soon get updated with a fix.

I've adressed the bug on Lenovo's Motorola one vision forum hoping for a solution/fix.

I had to try it myself after seeing those images from @badadam
I experienced the same thing, and you can even see the purple tint in the view finder without taking an actual photo so it can't be because of some post processing on images.. But it's only concentrated to the middle for some reason.
I got this answer from a support guy on the Lenovo one vision foum:
This looks like a limitation of the hardware under very specific conditions. I suspect attempts to tune it out were determined to cause other side effects, but we will report it.
I´ve now asked if my device has to be returned/swapped if it is a hardware issue or if a future update can fix the problem.
I recieved the following answer to the above question from Lenovo:
Yes, that's what I mean. My personal recommendation would be to use the Night Vision feature, as previously suggested. Flash always leaves some kind of visual variation. Replacing it with a new motorola one vision won't make a difference.
I then took the attached photo (taken with night vision, indoors, not in low light) and sent it as reply asking if it is a general problem with the one vision or I and others that have experienced the problem have faulty devices.
I am tempted to returning/swapping the device in the hope of the latter.
Otherwise I will probably return the device to buy another phone. Which would be sad as I am otherwise very satisfied with the one vision. But I can't live with a phone that can't take perfect indoors photos.
That's only last update
This is before update.
Only SW issue
