The camera on my Inspire has just recently in the past couple days started showing everything in the Solarized effect. I checked all the settings and everything is how its supposed to be. I have googled this issue and have read a couple articles on the topic but I have yet to see a solution.
My phone is rooted, first with Revolution and now with stock optimized ROM.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Did you drop the phone recently? I had a customer that has the same issue and it happened as soon as they dropped it.
Yes it dropped the other night out of my lap onto the hardwood floor. Fell about a foot down.
My kids have dropped it before a couple times but this is the first time this issue has come up.
Possible Fix
I was having the same issue on my Inspire.
Try this; With the camera on, push the camera lens back towards the phone applying just enough pressure without breaking the lens.
I think when we dropped our phones, the CMOS or wiring may have come lose.
I am back in working order now, hopefully this works for you also.

This just happened to me today as well. I tried this method and it worked! Thank you so much. I gave you a thanks!
I was reading some of the other posts ended with people needing to send their phones back to HTC. So I was pretty sure that was the route I was going to take. Very pleased that I don't have to do that!
I've noticed, particularly on lower brightness (which I do often for battery life reasons) I get a wavy/rolling line that is very visible (see YouTube link below).
Anyone else seeing this or could it be a bad display? Unfortunately, it's very noticeable to me. I came from a Vibrant so I don't think its sensitivity to pentile.

I think I have a better way to describe this. It seems like a refresh rate issue.

I get this on my Vibrant occasionally, more often if I'm using a non-OEM battery (obviously not your problem), but I'm convinced it's the digitizer dying. Turn it in now for a replacement before you get stuck with a refurb later.

Thanks for the info. Was thinking I was just nuts after no one had replied for a while. Definitely noticeable enough it hurts my eyes after a while. I'll get it replaced tomorrow or Saturday and hopefully that resolves my issue. Otherwise, loving it!

An update in case anyone ends up at this thread because they are having similar issues. It appears this was just a bad display on the phone as I got a replacement and thus far I haven't seen any display issues at all.
had someone exchange their phone with me today for the exact same issue.
unless that was you....ha.
I think that was me.
I came in around 4pm and you were talking to me about yours being a dev phone.
My S have the same problem

I have the same issue with my phone, just unboxed it. I don't have a T-Mobile store in my town, just a stand at the mall, how do I get them to look at this long enough to notice it?
Well, suhailtheboss may be able to answer this better then I since he works at the T-Mobile store I bought mine from...
But, mine was most obvious on greys so I just brought up the grey battery usage graph full screen and they could all see what I was talking about as it was very obvious.
No issues getting it swapped out at all after showing them that and the replacement one has not yet displayed any issues like this.

Your best bet is to be able to replicate the issue quickly for the rep, then they should have no issue exchanging it for you.
When I go to work on Thursday I will put a post on our internal site that states this issue, so that it's documented in our system for other all employees to be able to see. As of today this issue was not in the database.
DigitalMonk came in, was very articulate about the problem, and could easily replicate the issue. If he came in and vaguely described the issue without being able to replicate it, most likely we would have not exchanged the phone for him.
(Unfortunately most people who try to exchange phones do so because of user error, assuming that it's the phones fault and not their own. Because of this it is sometimes more difficult to filter the legit exchanges from the unnecessary ones)
Good Luck!

Thanks, I appreciate that. I "tested" my screen on my non-techy roommate and they can see the flicker also...so we will see.
Sounds exactly like what I encountered with my phone. It was obvious to a couple of non-techy co-workers. Zero problems so far with the replacement.

Be on the look out... After unlocking / flashing / rooting (not exactly sure when, in the middle of this process, I noticed this), my phone began a flickering in a very different manner.
The entire screen would flicker into a variably brief, yellow tint. First noticed it when using the notification bar.
I hoped it was soft, and not hard, issue -- so I immediately rebooted after seeing it a handful of times in near rapid succession, and haven't seen it since. I'm curious to hear whether this has happened to anyone else, and if so, whether their phone has been modified in any way.

Mine is not modified. I am sending back mine today to get it fixed/exchanged.
Just returned one for the blinking, now i am seeing this error! My local tmobile is going to hate me by the time im done. LOL
My first One S with wavy/rolling lines as described in first post was approved as DOA.
I have now a new One S and it don't have the same problem
Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem... My screen bugs out multiple times a day. Regardless of the ROM I am running. The only way to fix the problem is to lock the screen, and unlock. Kind of annoying. Just started happening recently, and like I said, on multiple Roms. Anyone else having the same problem??

Bad LCD
Mine freaks out too. Like static on old black and white uhf tv's. I think its a loose wire cause the only way to fix it is to smack the back of the phone (....just like an old tv). I thought about changing the LCD but since its a release day thunderbolt, I'm due for an upgrade soon. I think I'm just going to ride it out.
Signature.
So far I've had this happen a couple of times. I'll look down and my watch has changed faces, it always seems to revert back to the stock watch face. Just wondering if I'm the only one with this happening.
Nope, it's happened to me a couple of times. I just figured it was an error in the watchface that was active and set it back. It's a pretty low error rate, so I'm just dealing with it. =-]
Ok, today, I just started having an issue where my screen seems to jump around. I've had the phone since February, and no issues until today. I fear it is hardware, but want to try and get a second opinion.
