[Q] bad screen and camera quality

hi guys,
I'm an android no0b ... soon fix that problem though.
anyway here is my situation and question:
Does the phones with the 'Bad Screen Issue' take the same quality pics as the ones with the Good screen
I love to take pics... my old nokia 3.15mb cellphone take great shot, I simply love cellphone that take great pics... but
I might be getting a used a mytouch4g (rooted still on froyo) [decent enough price (well as decent as living in Jamaica goes) ]
and from the first day that I saw the the phone I commented "oh i thought it would be nicer... the screen looks so bland... washed out"
the owner didnt even realize that it look bland, and said that its just looks that way , it doesnt affect the camera/pic quality.
I played around with it for a few minutes... my first experience with an android device... I AM IN LOVE WITH ANDROID NOW. but I still could not get around how bland the screen showed..
he only had it for a week before and didnt have much experience with android either.. he got it from someone b4 ... and all he knew is that its rooted.
I really like this device, and checked around online and was shocked to find out about the 'BAD SCREEN ISSUE' , and first i say some comments where persons said that they first say it after the rooted their device and a some1 even said that the unrooted their phone and the issue went away..
but that to this forum and youtube and realized that is a real hardware issue literally a 'BAD SCREEN' most like TFT vs a SuperLcd issue. ( right ?)
I still purchase it from him, and i said the the price is pretty sweet...
i know only know two person who own the mytouch/glacier and I asked them to send me a sample of pics that they took with their phone... just to compare camera quality. In fat hey did n't even know about the BAD screen issue (fortunately for them their devices are ok) ...
I took some pics with the one that i would be getting and I must say I am disappointed ... the pic when send to my pc looks just as washed out and bland as on the phone screen. i seriously doubted that the screen would affect the camera quality.. i may be wrong though.
I am not considering not to buy it... just because of the bright/washed out screen... but it not likely that i'm getting another decent Android phone for any where near this price again.
So guys I'm asking
.1) Does the phones with the 'Bad Screen Issue' take the same quality pics as the ones with the Good screen
.2) (if the forum allows it) some of your guys with the 'bad screen" phones upload your pics so i and have a better judgement of the camera quality. Prolly the camers secsors are determined by th e screen output (?)
.3) If u think that think that unrooting/rerooting will help the camera issue ( yeah unlikey )
4) If updated the android build / ginger bread or cm7 or so would improve the camera quality.
thanks in advance.

thanks for the prompt reply...
sadly I can not answer that question, as:
1) I did not check (dont know how to as yet), I am assuming that it at its default setting
2) the phone is not currently in my possession ( prolly not for the next two days) .
once again thanks

The menu button (second hard button from the left) will bring up settings. Check Resolution. I've noticed that pictures in lower light aren't too great. Remember though, its a phone with a camera. The camera is, at most, second.

hope fully I can get my hands on it tomorrow...
I am hoping that the camera can be adjusted to take quality pics...
sad if my old nokia kicks the teeth out a glacier

The LCD panel and the camera picture quality are not related. The good/bad screens basically refer to the two vendors HTC sourced for the MT4G's LCD, with the good one being the Sony S-LCD and the bad one being manufactured by Sharp. The differences between the screens lie in their contrast, color rendering, and off-axis viewing angles. There are some theories that the differences are not actually caused by the screen, but rather by the digitizer, but unless the digitizer was replaced, the screen and digitizer seem to go hand in hand.
The camera on the MT4G simply isn't that good. Unlike the camera for the Amaze, I've never read of an editable image compression setting for the MT4G's camera, so I'm inclined to believe that one doesn't exist.

I had two mytouch.
One good.one bad.
I have to say the cm7 camera from tdj's 12/30/11 cm7 Kang took some great pictures.
I tested every camera option available(alot of basketball/baseball games),and for some reason that Kang was the best as far as cameras.
Should it have been different? I do.t know why! Cant explain it!
Those pictures were crisp and clear.
I sure I posted a pic in that thread to check it for sure.right around new years.
Found the picture.posted it above.
On both phones the camera was super bad.
Thats why thr darkside was the best side.

I was not impressed with the quality of the pictures from the MT4G before it died. The outdoor pictures in daylight still had significant compression artifacts, soft focus, and undersaturation. Not natural saturation. Undersaturation. Blacks weren't black. Indoor pictures with incandescent lighting were just dreadful. Honestly, the picture quality was comparable to my Motorola RAZR2 V9x with an extra three megapixels.

Lol.haha.its a phone.its a 5mp camera.
Not bad for what it is.

Colors from camera are horrible.

The colors are far too over saturated. The resulting photos are not at all accurate. I tried changing white balance, but they problem stayed. Is there some other setting? Is this problem software specific... in other words would a different ROM maybe fix it?

have heard that and may be a little true, i am not a photo buff, so i think they are great

I think the photos are fine. Are you looking at them on a pc?

Yes, could that be the problem? I thought everyone looks at digital photos on PCs. FWIW the color problem persists on various PCs and on the phone itself.

To be honest, I think your photo proves the OP's point. I'm not saying it doesn't look great - it does; however, the colours are way over-saturated, meaning that while it looks nice, it does not look like a real or accurate represenation of the subject.

That is a great picture.
But unless that plant in the foreground is plugged into an outlet, there's no way that color can be accurate. Does it not look outrageously bright green to you?

Exactly. It looks "nice"... but the colors are way too intense.
Has anyone using a non-stock ROM noticed a difference?

Here's an example. The couch in this picture is a rather subdued maroon color. It does not glow like this in real life.

Yup. I just took a pic to confirm and its very noticeable. This is a big issue.

I find that if you into into the image adjustments and lower the saturation by 1, the colors are more accurate and natural. The photos are from my school and i think that just lowering the saturation it looks more natural

Looks like that does it, nice tip mate.

Dude,
Get yourself an SLR camera if you're not happy!
It's just a damn phone (i.e. a device you use to make calls), what do you expect?
LOL

Thank you, Corona. It looks like that's a step in the right direction.

LOL indeed.
I'm comparing the photos from this to the photos of previous smart phones, like the Nexus One, G2 and several Samsung phones I've owned. All of these took better pictures with more accurate colors. The One S does have some nice features, like HDR and Low Light mode, but if the colors are all wrong, then it doesn't matter.
But it seems this may be lost on you. You're clearly struggling to understand the term 'smart phone'. My suspicion is that you, having little experience with the first half of the term have chosen to ignore it, and this is what has lead you to believe that a smart phone is 'just a damn phone.'

Relax man! Don't get so wound up! It's not the end of the world!

Actually, it's quite the opposite. I am very much aware about the 'smart' bit in 'smartphone' but I just think that no matter how you put it the camera on a 'smartphone' can never be included in the 'smart' bit.
You see, I am actually very much into photography and I do care quite a bit about the photo quality and that is why a phone no matter how 'smart' it is will never cut it for me - the quality is simply not there from the very start. There is no way to get the same quality from the tiny sensor and lens in a 'smart' phone as you would get from an SLR, even one with a 1.6 crop factor, and a proper set of lens.
So basically if you want your photos to look good then don't take them with a phone! While if you just want to point and shoot when you're out with your friends then I don't think the colour accuracy is that much of a big deal - you can always retouch them in Photoshop if you care that much. At the end of the day in a point and shoot situation you probably want to capture the moment and not so much to take an artistic photo.
I may well be wrong since the camera function on my 'smart' phone is one of the things I use the least. In my case, when I want to take good photos I make sure I have my SLR with me - I'd never leave it to the camera on my phone. That is not to say that the phone is not actually very smart indeed, don't get me wrong, it's just that I use all the other functions a hell of a lot more and I think that's what makes it really smart, not the silly camera...

I totally agree man! That's what I did! Mind you, I'm not a Nikon fan though, I like my Canon 550D a lot more!

You guys are totally missing the point. Photography is also a hobby of mine (I happen to be a Nikon fan) but that does not mean I can't expect that my new phone take pictures at least as good as a phone from FIVE years ago.
If the phone's calculator added one and one and came up with thirty three, would you tell me it's not a problem, and that I shouldn't be using a phone for a calculator?

What happened to this thread--
I will agree if the photos are VERY important, a phone may not be the way to go or take some photos before buying
On the other hand no need to lambast anyone
For this old man--I can only hope if someone takes a pic of me with my phone, it enhances me as well as it does the other photos it takes--

Is My S6 Camera Faulty? Pics attached!

Please do the poll
I have recently had my phone sent in for repair and have received a “fixed phone” which I believe to still be faulty and Samsung do not seem to want to have anything to do with me.
Every time I take a picture in low light, the image will have diagonal streaks where there is a light in the image (see attached images). Bear in mind that I am standing still when taking these photographs.
Samsung have said the following on the photos attached:
“we would not consider these photo's to indicate a fault with the device or camera but instead how the mobile phone camera operates in low/reduced light.”
The samsung presidential office are adamant that the phone is not faulty, hence I have decided to seek a independent opinion from you guys!
So do you believe that this phone is of Samsung quality? (btw my ipod touch takes better low light than these photos!)
Thanks for your time!

As some people have been asking - the film covering the lens have been removed. From physical inspection the lens is in as new condition.

Sample video also showing the low light issue : https://goo.gl/photos/BrLs4KiZG8e9R8Wx7

the camera itself doesn't seem faulty as much as the glass covering it. try cleaning it well before taking any photos

Thanks for the reply - the glass is clean on the outside with no visible scratches.
I think the problem is with the lens - maybe not the camera sensor per say.

Your photos are of unacceptable quality, their is no way that this is the way photo's should come out even in low light. They may be grainy in low light but not what you have shown.
Try to factory reset the phone and see if that yields any better results. If the results are the same then keep pushing Samsung to fix or replace the phone. The images are not representiv of the photos that this phone is capable of taking.

Hello - I completely agree! I have already done a FR, Safe mode & diagnostic mode and all produce these images. Samsung just won't budge.
They tried to pass me off by saying it was due to ISO - incredible for a technical company...

At this point you need to have the phone replaced or repaired. You need to be diligent and keep pushing up the Samsung corporate ladder. You will eventually reach someone who will be able to help.
If there is a consumer afairs agency, or Better Business Bureau contact them also. The more more noise you make the better chance you have of getting your issue resolved.

I have just made an account to comment on this thread. The photos you have uploaded are NOT the quality of a S6. I agree with the others - you need to get this replaced. I would not stand for having a phone with such poor image quality.

After having this phone repaired by Samsung twice before I was fed up so I went straight to the CEO. The CEO passed me off to the "presidential office" aka Sean Archer.
He has been persistant that the phone is of the correct standard. I do not think I can go any higher in Samsung. I am definatly going to go down other pathways if Sean continues.

As I stated, contact consumer affairs agencies in your area, it never hurts to get help from them. Good Luck.

I had this problem before too. But found it it was a smudge on the glass covering the lens so i cleaned it thoroughly. In your case seems to be hardware issue. Goodluck on you problem and yeah keep us posted.

Looks like an amazing effect. Those photos are beautiful! However, it's faulty lol
Did you take off the plastic covering? Customer service should replace your phone, especially if they want to maintain their footing in this competitive and over saturated market.

The first few photos look quite good, but when EVERY photo has the effect it gets old very quickly! (Good idea re the plastic covering - sadly that was removed long ago :/ )

There is a small glass/screenprotector film applied on both the camera lens as the heartbeat sensor. I think that when you remove the one from the camera lens the pictures will come out just fine

Yes, highly possible.
I mean, look at the possibilities here, the camera only gets the visuals through one hole that Is made for the camera. It is not the sensor as the focus and sharpness seems to be intact on most of the picture.
What I would suggest I that one of the lenses on the camera has been dirty or is made of low quality, as the light passing through is being spread instead of concentrated into the spots were it appears.
Why does this happen in low light?
That's because the camera is opening the lens a bit more to be able to take in more light in bad light conditions. The more it opens, the more of the lens it uses.
So this is by looking at the pictures, a pretty dysfunctional camera, and something you should not accept being pushed away about. You're having one of the best phones (In terms of specs) out there, do not tolerate this.
Go hard on Samsung, they have plenty of money, and probably have a hard time being nice towards customers. Keep us updated on your progress and eventually feedbacks from Samsung. I had some bad times about Samsung lately too, so I'm curious.
Good luck!

Should get another s6 and have them both take the same picture in low light and than show Samsung the result. If they still say the phone is good throw it in their face, get an iPhone, take the same pic and show them while rubbing it in their face.

Mi4c display has extreme blur and ghosting or just mine?

hello together,
i receveid my mi4c yesterday and noticed that the display has the above said issues, i think most of you should know what i mean, i come from a moto G (2015) and never had these problems on it...
both are IPS LCD, scrolling text is horrible on the xioami.. looks like the display has very high reaction and transition times...
so do i have a faulty unit or is this standard on this phone?
EDIT:
i made the perfect test : www.testufo.com/#test=chase&background=404040&leading=FFFFFF&trail ing=00FFFF&distance=38&pps=600&height=180
i adjusted it so the trail of the white box touches the blue box wich is 38 distance in my case (moto g has 25)
if you have the same result on your phone than i know my phone is not faulty

i think it should be moved in q/a. you have a faulty unit, contact your seller as soon as possible !

Did you do it at full brightness?

My white box hits the blue box at about 38 also, running CM12.1 and using chrome. I've never noticed this before and don't really see it when scrolling text.
Not ruling out faulty units but everyone is going to say theirs is different because everyone's eyes are different. Similar argument on computer monitors with TN/IPS and refresh rates etc some people cant stand the ghosting and others say they cannot see it.
EDIT*
just thought I'd add I have run the authenticator app when I was on miui and all came back ok.

Weird how there seem to be different results.. Am I mistaken or did I read that different models might have different LCD panels? Like one was Sharp.. Would there be any way to find this out?

38 here too.
Good job tho. You should post this test to the MIUI Forum. Probably in the mi4c section.

i highly doubt your result to be honest.. since 2 people already had around 38 also

The refresh rate of the screen is 60Hz (although sometimes it scales dynamically in order to save power) so it can display 60 frames per second with vsync which are a lot for a human eye to process without blurring. So I think that the blurring happens because of our eyes not the screen, therefore this test is not valid.

Doesn't touch even at 20:

A screenshot won't show it, when it's running you are looking for the faint white ghosting behind the white box to touch the blue box.

You can test, but its confirmed...the display is crap in terms of motion clarity most 100$ phones beat it...

No im not a troll, did u even capture it in hi-speed mode?
Did you see the pictures i took in my posts?
Who do you think you are calling me stupid???
Do so even have the slightest idea how displays work? Do you know that OLED and CRT have no blur at all? Do you know that CSMOS camera Sensors work different than old analog ones?
You ran both phones side by side, wich one was better? The moto g right?
Edit: what i mean is an analog camera would take the picture like you see it with your eyes, you would See 1 square with a trail, not 3-4 shifted squares

[Hardware Fail] Camera Lens Flare Issue

"I've created a Telegram group to discuss possible issues with some users and most everybody noticed a huge issue with the Camera, with this one having huge lens flare in certain angle where the source of light is not even visible on the Viewfinder. This happens not only at sunlight but also at night where the strength of a single street lamp ruins the whole Camera experience."
This was the E-Mail i've been sending to Oppo and apparently their fix is:
1 - Clear Camera App Cache
2 - Reboot the Phone
3 - Update your Software Version
4 - Factory Reset the phone
The problem is that this is a Hardware issue and Oppo doesn't recognize this.

This is how a Lens Flare happens and it is normal in most cases, but not here. People are having this aiming the phone to the floor.
So, do you guys have this issue?
Basically go outdoor and keep playing with the Camera until you see the Flares as the attachment shows.
It must be on a certain angle and only affects the Main Camera.

More examples:

Good write up of the issue, I haven't gone out of my way to try and reproduce your issue but I've had the phone since release in the UK and taken at least 100 photos in varying lighting conditions and not one of them has any flares or reflections like in your shots

you don't have sun in UK
only the night shots are mine

Mmmm I live in Seville (Spain) hard sun 300 out of 365 days of the year and for the moment I havent noticed this, here im going to post 3 recent photos (obviously with the find x2 pro) and in one of them (the grizzlies one) maybe a little bit of flare in the left side of the photo

its not in direct contact with the light, its on a certain angle depending on the phone.

Hahaha while that's generally true, for about 2 weeks last month it was around 28 degrees and sunny... Which is where I took a lot of shots outdoors and no issues

i dont notice it aswell on daylight in real life usage, but when you know how to reproduce it it's hard to miss

I don't see flares in my shots, but I notice that there is a blurring of outer area of the frame.
When I take a photo of a document or something a foot or two from the lens its very noticeable.
Its sharp in the center of the frame but blurs are very obvious around the center.

thats normal due the sensor size.

I don't have this issue I'd recommend getting a repair/replacement through warranty, problem solved

The problem is that Oppo says it's a Software issue.

So if that's what they think, what software solution are they going to come up with?

none. i've mention this even before i got the phone and still no proper answer.
it's still under "investigation"

Having exactly the same issue here. I get a halo toward the bottom of pictures mainly around 6-7 in the evening. Doesn't look like a software issue I would say definitely lens related on the main camera.

Still can't seem to replicate this issue which makes me think it's device specific, however from the Engineers reply it seems like he's implying it's a limitation rather than a fault

if its limited to some devices, even better. just replace the faulty devices.

Well I don't think it's a limitation because iv have this camera since release and and iv just noticed it yesterday IV been taking pictures for a while now with no issues then just suddenly IV noticed it happening, seems very very bad at takes g a basic picture with a lamp at the side
