Post pictures you have taken with this device

So far I'm reading alot of you guys are not happy with dim light or challenging situation results. Can you post good and bad shots? Will help other get an idea in deciding. I'm really concerned about indoor shots, dim lights, etc. Thanks.

I took both of these in low light. First is night mode, second is auto mode.
*I have removed the plastic film from the lens. It doesn't actually cover the opening, but the camera does seem to focus a bit better since removing it. Maybe placebo...

Both are without flash.

All of these were taken in artificially lit rooms... average to mediocre lighting.

The camera doesnt seem too bad, but I dont think the camera would do well in a pub or club type of light. But so far I like how the pics look. At least night mode helps.

The camera is fantastic.

In apartment shots (not super low light but not bright our outside lit) are def better than my iphone 5. I recommend turning on auto night mode (switched to night automatically).

Camera is amazing.

Galaxy S4 Active Wallpaper Thread

I wanted to create a wallpaper thread here for all of us Active users so we could share our wallpapers . I like to collect wallpapers and I also like finding new ones. The way I see it is you can never have enough. Post any wallpaper that you may want to share with the community. It doesn't matter what kind of wallpaper you post just as long as it is clean and does not offend anyone. I will post more within the thread as I find new ones. Here are a few to get us started.

Personally I think that the Firefly ROM from the old Samsung Captivate had some of the best, well polished wallpapers out there. The entire ROM just looked amazing and was very well put together, better than most manufacturers put out these days. Sadly it was the only ROM that @xtremekilla09 put out. Even though it was based on Android 2.2 I have always hoped that somebody would update it and port it to other phones, at least the theme if nothing else.
Anyways, I've taken all the wallpapers out of the ROM and uploaded them to a zip if anybody else wants them, like I said they're pretty amazing.

Wallpapers
A few that I have found.

I'm into live wallpaper currently I'm using Shape Swap LWP. Very customizable I also use it on my Optimus G Pro. I believe its free.

Another one of my favorites is 3d Image Live wallpaper. Gives any 2d image a 3d effect. It's a paid app costs a dollar something I forget. Worth it though.

I have bought around 15 to 20 live wallpapers over the years. I like them as long as the dont make my phone laggy. Right now the one I've been hooked on is Next Nexus Live Wallpaper Pro on my Active. On my Nexus 7 Gyrospace 3D looks pretty cool.

Display issue after 4.4.4 upgrade

Hey, so I Just upgraded my moto to 4.4.4 in the UK, and now there's a sort of smudge on my screen near the center left of the display, its very obvious when i use my phone in bed, and it annoys me non stop. The smudge looks like a white fingerprint but its on the display, like a dead pixel or something which it obviously isnt. I will take a photo on my tablet so you can see it, as unsurprisingly it doesnt show up in screenshots. I would greatly prefer software alternatives over hardware ones due to the fact im in quite a rural area. Thanks, Neo

nothing can be seen well from the photo, it's like an halo under the screen.

Try to dry the humidity with an hair dryer, carefully, really. This was the suggestion I can second, in my opinion. The better photo?

I've been really busy today working, so I'll take one in the morning. Also, if its water under the screen should I put the dryer on minimum heat?

Correct, I suggest medium heat and try short, multiple time heating. Difficult to sort out without a much clearer photo as stated from smbody else.

Here's a "better" photo, as my moto has the best camera of my devices, and my tab 2 has a 3mp shooter so the quality ain't great.
EDIT: been blow drying to seemingly no gain, will try later. In the meantime, any other ideas?

Are ( or is, the spot appears to be the same of the other photo) the places of the screen responsive to touch inputs with your littlest finger?

If all goes as planned, I'll have mine tomorrow and I plan on toying around with those. I'm used to them on my DSLR so if I get ambitious enough, maybe I'll do some side by sides, but I'm pretty lazy soooo.,......
The left image is on my Canon T3i in manual mode. The right is my Note 5. I in no way expected it to be close to the same quality but the color was just way off. https://i.imgur.com/4z1XkqT.jpg The manual settings on the Note 5, though nice....are still quite basic. I may try a couple other cameras with RAW support.

Did you see they have a 'Food' filter setting you can download from within the camera app? Wonder how much a difference it would make.

These are just snapped in auto mode, no changes made to anything. Really like the camera, especially how quickly it focuses. Have been told to try the Auto HDR mode, so I will when I get a chance.

Share your amazing G4 Photos!

Hi,
The last three devices I've owned (S6, S5 and HTC One M7) all had photo threads. So, I went looking for one for this amazing beast of a device and in spite of it having arguably the best camera out there (I give it the edge over the S6, which I used for the last 6 months), I could find no such thread! So, here it is!
I look forward to seeing what the rest of you have done with it. Happy Shooting!

I should mention that these are all as shot on the camera. I love to edit in Snapseed and I share on Instagram (Sheldor1967). But, for sake of showing off this camera I will share photos here unedited, only cropped.
And, though I didn't do it with these photos because I don't remember, I will try to say whether they were in Auto mode or manual.
The auto is extremely capable here.

This is on manual mode. 15 seconds at ISO 350. HOW COOL IS THAT? I'm a little excited about the long exposure setting.

Out camping, 30 seconds exposure, 350 iso, unedited. I think the orange bottom part is a mixture of some light pollution and a truck that drove by during the picture. Turned out really cool tho!
