Hi everyone,
The title is pretty clear. And I want the old one back. I want to be able to take pictures during video. I want to be able to change white balance. I want to be able to change scene mode. The lens blur is absolute poo. It straight up sucks. I know the real time picture ratio isn't right on the old one, but it just looks better with the added space. Is there any way to get back my old, functional camera back? Thanks in advance for any answers.

How could you NOT know how to uninstall updates. Should give the new update a chance, I agree that the massive are at the bottom isn't ideal but once you've messed around with the settings etc I personally think its better. And I'm pretty sure you can take a PIC whilst recording by tapping on the screen, don't quote me on that though.

None of the massive area in the bottom is part of the photo anyway so how is it less than ideal? At least now we can see what the photo will look like before we take it. No more accidentally missing part of the shot cause the screen shows more picture than photo.

Your kitty has vanity issues
Anyone notice the flash has green hue at the edges? Makes night pictures terrible.
Comparing side-by-side with my soon-to-be-on-eBay Evo, Inspire's flashes have decidedly green/teal hue.
Hoping it's just my Inspire's LED flashes.
Xda always shrinks the quality... Any way to add full size images via phone? I guess upload to Picasa then attach from there instead?

You can try or upload someplace like flickr as well (the phone has this option built into the Gallery app)
The ones I uploaded was from a computer not the phone, so Im not sure if you are able to upload in such a way via the phone however.

same here... i think the camera isn't all that good honestly. The iPhone 4's camera blows this one away
My experience is that the flash is awful with any significant ambient light
Im sure with certain advanced settings within the phone the photo quality can get better.
Also the focus can be manually changed, on my photos like I mentioned there was absolutely no light in the room.
At the end of the day if you want the best quality photos, its time to invest in a top of the line point and shoot camera.
a picture i took a few days ago. it seems like it focus' nicely but when you take a picture no matter how still you hold it you get a blurry picture.
Deadly combo indeed.
I took these just now....

For the psst couple of days now, I've noticed some extremely bothersome green red and blue dots all over the screen when the camera is open. They look almost like stuck pixels, the green being an entire cluster of said stuck pixels. When pictures and videos are taken, the dots end up in the pictures and videos as well. What is this? This js royally pissing me off and making me sad, I use my camera a lot
Attatched is an image taken by the camera showing the burned up pixels. The green should be easiest to notice, the blue and red are a lot harder to see especially if XDA mobile doesn't upload images at its original quality.

have you done a reboot and then test the camera? Every few months my camera might show some green lines, thread somewhere about that. Reboot worked. Also clear camera data and test with a 3rd party camera app. Hope that helps.

not too sure about anybody else but the attachment in the op is a plain black box, no probs on it, maybe its your psychical screen
For some reason I think the green,blue and red dots are nothing but camera noise and this only happens when you use the camera at night time
I have the same issue and I must admit it is very annoying
Also you said the colors pixels get carried onto videos and picture and I would say this is normal the only way you can get rid of this is by having a good lightning in the room
But for some reason the sensation still show a lot of camera noise even in good lightning

They appear during daylight as well. Harder to notice, but its there.
I don't know about you all but I'd love a really white (ie no black screen with a white backplate) n5. So far the leaks make the phone look really ugly and cheap. I know we buy the nexus for its guts and software... Not its looks but it may look so bad in pictures because of the matte soft touch black paint. If you examine the pictures closer it has a very clean design.
To get to the point, this phone would look really elegant I think in white. Not since my original g1 have I had an all white phone, AMD certainly not a white nexus. I know beggars can't be choosers, but if Google ever wanted the nexus line to be a commercial success instead of just a Dev line for their new software, options like this would be awesome.
Given that zero of these leaks have revealed anything other than a black phone, I'm SOL.

Well white would be nice however all the leaks show a matte back and we all know matte white doesn't work(HTC One X)

Not that this means anything, but some of the case makers have renders of it in white. Regardless, i think google likes the oreo look of "white" devices, so i dont think they'll make a white bezeled phone anytime soon.
may be released with white as well...

Here's my quick (And bad) photoshop of how the Nexus 5 should really look like in white based on the leaked box's images.

Yeah the image looks legit as it follows other nexus packaging and the N5 displayed on it as a black front face just like the white version of the N4
Hey, M8 owners. I'm a note 3 owner looking at the M8. I came from the M7 but sold it mostly due to the camera performance and lack of expandable storage. The latter has been addressed and from I've read the camera has improved as well. However, I wanted to get the opinions of actual owners about the quality of photos taken with the M8. I'm especially interested in hearing opinions from those that frequently photograph their kids. So, please chime in with your experience.
TIA!

I came from the Note 3 and really the only thing that I miss is the camera. While the M8 camera has some cool gimmicks, the note 3 really took great photos. That said, the build quality and everything else about the phone I love - even with a smaller screen. I haven't looked back and the camera is sufficient enough for everyday use.
hope this helps.

Thanks for the response. It's a little discouraging, but I think I'll hit up a Verizon store with my daughter tomorrow and do some thorough testing of the camera. It sounds like some of the auto settings are less than ideal but that a few manual adjustments can really improve performance.

I own both devices and have to say that the Note 3 takes better pictures as far as I am concerned. What I will say is that I have a main line and a business line and the M8 is the phone I choose to be on the main line. Here is an example of pictures from both:

Cool, thanks. Looks good. I played with the M8 today. My daughter wasn't up to going to Verizon with me, but I think I got a good feel for the camera. Shutter speeds are fast and shot to shot tines were impressive. By no means am I a highly skilled photographer, I just want to be able to capture decent shots of my kids. I think I'll try to pick one up and give it a go. Thanks everyone for the feedback.

I never got that to work, only double tapping to turn on, it must be sensitive. Also that's why I'm not a huge fan of the camera :/
I upgraded from the DNA as well,and so far I don't have any complaints. The camera isn't the best but I knew that going in.

You can improve the camera a lot by the custom settings.
.
^this was a bit over saturated
The cameras not really bad. It's a 4 'ultra pixel' but it's good in low light and all the effects I.E 3D makes up for the la lacking pixels. I love the phone coming from a note 3. The build quality,display,size,speakers,and speed is what I favor most.
I'm not a real fan of sense but I took care of that with nova launcher and the viper1 Rom? I recommend that Rom if you're thinking about rooting ?
HTC ONE M8?
After a little over a week of use my experiences with this phone has been nothing but positive... Of course the camera leaves a lot to be desired but other than that, smooth sailing.. After a day of use on a full charge I still have 50% + left. It almost lasted 2 days that's a lot more improvement over the droid DNA.. I haven't rooted yet, I'm actually kind of scared and hesitant to. On another note I feel like I made the right decision over and S5..
