I have been experiencing crazy camera issues while taking photos with direct sunlight. There is a blue dot below the sun and I am seeing if anyone else is having this issue. Pics are attached. Not sure if this is a hardware flaw in the optics of the lens. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

That is called lens flare and is completely normal.

Ever watched a JJ Abrams movie?
Thanks for the info. I was unsure of this because I never had this happen with s3,s4,s5,g3, or note 4.

I was wondering if there is a app or someone can make the screen get bright right before you take a pic with the front camera kinda how there is a "flashlight" app for phones that dont have a led light and use the screen brightness just wondering if this would work for night time pics
searched around could not find anything on this at all so sorry if it was answered

i doubt it will work since it is facing you and not the real camera
Well what i was thinking is you take a pic of yourself with the front camera that the screen will get bright white kinda like a flash but just making it as bright white the screen can get for a second to see yourself better at night

I agree. That's very similar to my Mac desktop. The screen flashes right before it takes a self portrait. I bet an app can be created, but the issue might be auto focus. The front cam isn't all that great with auto focus so when the screen flash it might show a white blur.

Is anyone else experiencing issues while taking photos with their G2x? The image comes out fine (if a little dark) but the image displayed on my screen AS I am seeking the correct angle/position/wandering around is REALLY dark.
If I bump up the brightness, it whitewashes my final picture.
Anyone else seeing this? It's almost as if my sensor is off, somehow.
Mine does the same. Anyway to fix this?

Hello.
Dec 2011 - Here are a few camera issues that I've been experiencing with my new SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 Galaxy S II Skyrocket using the provided camera/video app:
Issue #1: Indoor photos.
Photos taken indoors (in "normal" lighting) typically look very dark. If the flash is engaged, the subject often appears with a blue tint.
Issue #2: MP4 playback audio/video issues.
After transferring video captures to my Windows 7 desktop pc (filetype is MP4), the video and audio are out of sync / not in sync / mis-aligned during playback. File size is a mere 30MB. This was true of Quicktime, RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, etc.
Anyone else having a similar experience?
I've had the same issue with the camera my roomate experiences the same issue. I haven't had the issues with the video though. For my camera quick fix I downloaded Camera ZOOM FX yesterday and the picture quality seems much better. Hope that helps, but I'm hoping for a legitimate fix too...

If you are getting the blue photos you have a defective unit. I traded mine in and the new one takes much better pics...no blue tint

Has it been verified that it's a defective unit issue? I ask because I get the blue tint as well. Pictures also seem to come out dark in well lit areas. Alhough, the little widget size image priview it shows in the corner after the picture is taken looks correct, the image itself when viewed anywhere else looks dark.
I'm sure this as been answered 1000 times, but how might one go about restoring apps/data when switching to a new unit? If I make a copy of my rom, can I just flash it to the new unit?
Same issue Here.
When I frame a photo it looks fine, but after the picture is taken it looks dark.
I'll try another camera program like Camera Zoom FX.
I had the blue tint got a replacement and life's good.

I was wondering if anyone else was having a problem with their Charge's camera having problems focusing? I do have it set on autofocus and it is not even trying. Changed the settings over and over and still the same result, just a blury picture. When I click on the square it turns green but does not focus. I did clean the len and it did not make a difference. I am on the stock rom.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Your aperture is likely broken. Take the phone in.

Finally made it to the Verizon store today. They said it was an equipment issue. I am lucky and have the extended equipment warranty so I am able to get a replacement phone overnighted. Thank you for your help!
So I'm just wondering... I've seen threads about this in multiple areas but i haven't seen a fix for it. Are there any solutions to the gs3 taking blurry pictures? Before you take the pictures they look fine but no matter what you do, when you take the picture they turn out blurry. I've gone through 4 s3's and they all have this problem. I've used multiple camera apps on different ROMs on all of them with the same result. Its very frustrating. On the front facing camera the pictures turn out absolutely horrendous. Pretty sure its a defect with the s3 in general.

Take a q-tip, clean the lens.

Maybe tap the screen and focus
I don't have that problem nor most of us so it's certainly not a defect.

Its not an issue with the lense. Its the actual picture after processing that turns out blurry. This is a picture of myself taken with the front facing camera. It did not look anywhere near this blurry before taking the picture.

I don't see anything wrong with the pic? Lol

Well i notice it personally. This is a screenshot of the camera app before the picture was taken. Perhaps its just something that bothers me more than other people.

Aosp camera isn't always the best and it looks like that, also because of lighting around.

I think the problem is you are stressing the Gorilla Glass. This is one of the best most abusive tests that I have seen performed to prove that Gorilla Glass is tough to break.
Just kidding, I personally don't see anything wrong with the picture considering it is not a DSLR and the fact that the lighting is horrible. A lot of factors go into taking a good picture besides just focusing on the subject.
Picture seems about right in a low light, being a front facing camera, and on a smartphone. You are not able to compare a true dedicated camera (for now).

Did you find a solution to the problem? I'm facing the same issue with my S4.
All I see is some smoothing from post processing. There's nothing wrong with that picture.
I think perhaps you don't realize that the front facing camera is not a good camera. It will not take quality photos like the rear facing camera.
The picture is blurry because the quality of the sensor. The post processed picture is simply smoothed to remove the pixelation from the low light/resolution.
