Please help me fix my camera! Black patch..

Hi All,
I just bought the Photon 4G day before night and am loving it
But I realized that camera is showing a black patch on the screen... Its there in the file even when i take snaps as well as record videos Its set there permanently (same spot). Its somewhat translucent.
Please can anyone help me out fixing it cause its disappointing me somewhat
I have attached few images to let you guys know how it looks..
Oh and I think I dont need to point out the location of this ****. Its at the same spot in all the three images. In the second pic below the androids right leg...
P.S. Tried resetting the phone to factory setting, tried removing the battery.. No warranty for the phone. Bought it from Ebay India. Its the USA Sprint phone..
If cleaning does not help guess you will need a new one.

I did try cleaning it. The glass is absolutely flawless. So the main sensor / chip is defective i guess. I came across people facing, if not the same, but similar issues with their Android phones. I am not sure.
I hope I see someone who could manage to fix it or I'm totally out of luck. Have to live with that ass forever lol. Hope it doesnt expand any more!!!
you already stated you cleaned it ,so I will not beat that dead horse. If I were a betting man (I'm not really) I would say you have one of two issues.
1. (and I hope its not this) that phone was dropped and something broke or cracked internally.
2. Someone took it apart and lint or dust got between the lenses. Good Luck.
Althought #1 is possible, everyone I know with high end Smartphone treats them like 2 month old babies!

I dont think it has fallen... Its absolutely without any scratches or anything anywhere.. ANd the mark looks like a tiny butterfly! lol which is kinda transparent. I tried manually makin some marks on the camera lens with a blue marker pen, but that doesnt look the same at all. it just brings a blue hue (ink color) on the image. You cant see it as a mark (spot like in this case)..
And I'd like to mention one more thing. This thing, when I zoom it to the next level, it moves to the left and when I zoom it even more, it gets off the screen! (outside)Funny!
And about the dust thing, I really doubt..
Looks like dust on the sensor cant do ne thing unless u dismantle the whole camera module.

Strange I must say. We have Digital Zoom, not Optical. Is your phone Rooted with stock ROM?
Have you tried shaking it to see if the spot will move ??

I agree with farookh. If this were an SLR, I would say dust on the sensor and give you pointers on how to clean it. Since the sensor is internal here, you probably need to return it and get a new one versus voiding any warranty by trying it yourself.

Read his original post last sentence. No warranty, he got it from E-Bay in India.
OK. Let me tell a trick as former sprint store manager. I just used this to replace my epic so I know it still works.
If you have to phone active on your account call technical support about the phone. Tell them you are calling because a Rep at the store instructed you to call and do a "advanced exchange" on your device. Tell tech support that the store couldn't fix it and didn't have a replacement phone for you. Say they wouldn't exchange for new device and gave u a hard time. It is important to sound like your very unhappy. If they mention insurance, say your phone didn't qualify because the phone suffered no damage, it is a manufacturer defect as told to you by the repair Rep.
They may attempt to ask you what store u went to. Cut them off and say sir, I am not dealing with store again. U going in circles and feel everyone is spinning u and don't want to replace phone.
They will process advanced exchange and you swap phones through mail. They will send new one and you ship back old one.

If its dust and we only have digital zoom, shouldn't the spot still remain even after zooming? why does it move outwards
And I noticed 1 more thing yesterday... When I focus the camera (specifically that point!!) towards the sun, the spot just dissolves in the light and is not visible... Same is the case when I point it towards some very bright source.

Its stock ROM. I tried using a couple of camera apps, but still no luck. The spot appears on all. Do these apps use the same module used by the Default camera App? If yes, is there a way to reinstall the module.

Motorola India told me that they cant help me as this phone hasnt released here. They have no hardware and software support. They want me to co-ordinate with Motorola USA.
And when I lookup my phone's IMEI on motorola, I see that it is under warranty till Oct 2012...
Do you think I can get a replacement being here in India. I have the box, the manual and the handset.
I would snail mail moto and get a RMA or something in writing.

Galaxy Player 5.0 Replacement Battery?

Hello all! I was wondering if anyone had any clue where batteries compatible with this device are available? My device got wet and won't turn on, out of curiosity I swapped out the battery inside with a friend's and it booted right up!
I already tried Samsung's customer service and because it's not covered by warranty it'll cost me $40 plus the cost of the replacement battery ($51) Also the battery is on back order.
I really don't want to pay half the cost of a new player just to mine working again.
Thank you for your time.

Hmm... since these batteries are not supposed to be user serviceable, I am not sure what other choice you would have. Maybe ask around here and see if anyone has a busted player for cleap.
Good luck.

[Q] So...Screen help

So i dropped my s3 today... well the day i dont have the otter box i drop it, and the screen crack making the phone not responsive and then the screen turned all blue
and so i found this store that replaces all of that for 190$ worth?
Do the screens become laggy, and should i just stick it out with my bb 9900 for the time being (im a student) and wait for the s4 to get lower and just pick one up
I picked up my s3 in march for 325$
:highfive:
thank you, sorry i wasnt alowed to post in Q&A

Weird that you weren't allowed to post on the Q&A section cause you're already a senior member. But anyway since you got it on March then isn't it covered by warranty? Replacement screens on the internet are sometimes bogus unless your really know how to criticized the item being sold. I suggest that you bring it to Samsung for repair.

How much do you think the repairs at the Samsung centers are? I got. My. Phone off someone on kijiji and he got it from Hong Kong for dirt cheap and then I found out the pho was from France pretty sure from Orange. I'm not really the type of person that wants armatures to replace my screen... But the phone is like 300$ now and I do love my phone because no one else I know has the Grey one and I can't sell it on eBay because I have personal things in it, or should I just keep it as a decoration and buy a s4 when it's lower....
I don't know what to do... Is it really worth 200$ to fix a phone that I can get for 300$ but I wonder if they'd fix everything else because I've been having signal problems

Better go and ask them about it as I haven't really encountered bringing in a phone for repair. And if you ask me if it's really worth it to repair a phone for almost half the price when you bought it... well... I think i'll pass and just get a new one because you'll encounter more issues afterwards. Of course it's a different issue when you send it Samsung for warranty issues.

If you take it to a Samsung supported repair shop they will know its under warranty by the imei and serial number.You wont even need to have the reciept if you got it from someone else.Same happened to me once.If you want to replace the screen yourself then buy one on ebay for 140 bucks and do it yourself with a video tutorial from youtube.Its not that hard mate.
Ive changed a few screens for friends with ones from ebay and they are perfectly good and dont have any problems at all.Run perfectly and you save heaps too.

If its under waranty it should be free.Otherwise get a screen from ebay for 140 and fix it yourself and then try and sell the phone for 250.
250 + the 60 you saved will be 310 to go to an S4 at least mate.Id see if its covered first and then you will have a working phone to sell + 200 bucks.

Yeah mate all warranty coverage is free if its something like a hardware issue.If you drop it and they can tell then its up to them but if you dont have any marks on the side that makes it look like it has been dropped then just say that it wont start for some reason.
The bad thing is if it has been rooted and flashed and you havent reset the binary counter.Then if they see that they will most likely send you a letter asking you to pay cos that will mean you have lost the warranty.

Replacing the screen wont do anything to the touch at all.Ive changed screens on the S2,S3,Note2 and iphone4S with ones Ive got from ebay to save money by not paying store labour rates and none of them have any problems or screen issues.

Yeah mate if they know its the screen from an accident then they wont fix it.If you want to purposely brick your phone and say it has SDS (sudden desth syndrome) thats up to you but you may want to just fix it yourself if you cant find a non-samsung store that will do it for cheap..meaning screen + labour maybe 200 bucks.
Better to start looking at youtube videos.

Sooo... I soaked my Honor 7.

Hi!
To make a long story short, I got my phone nice and wet. After that the only thing that would work is the charging light and "utility" button(flashlight). I disassembled the thing and it had some oxidization goin on. I cleaned as best as I could....Assembled it back and it pretty much does the same thing. Only charges, flashlight works and it doesn't give me haptic feedback but I can browse the phones data storage on my pc...
The reason I'm posting is that do you guys have any insight/experience on similar stuff... I'm somewhat sure its the screen module(digitizer) that doesn't work?
Also, if you have bought those cheap ~30-40€ unbranded replacement modules...are they any good?
You might want to bring it to service center now if oxidation happens. I have a few experience with getting phones wet, but just wet and not soaked like yours. I just let them dry and they are working again.

Hi!
To make a long story short, I got my phone nice and wet. After that the only thing that would work is the charging light and "utility" button(flashlight). I disassembled the thing and it had some oxidization goin on. I cleaned as best as I could....Assembled it back and it pretty much does the same thing. Only charges, flashlight works and it doesn't give me haptic feedback but I can browse the phones data storage on my pc...
The reason I'm posting is that do you guys have any insight/experience on similar stuff... I'm somewhat sure its the screen module(digitizer) that doesn't work?
Also, if you have bought those cheap ~30-40€ unbranded replacement modules...are they any good?

Headaches, Eyes Pain when using Realme 1, Foreced to switch off WiFI ?

HI All,
I have been using Realme 1 (6GB , 128GB ROM) Black Diamond for past 15+ days.. Bought it on 1st Online sale at 1230 PM
I have no issues with the phone whatsoever, except for below
When I use the phone even for few minutes, I have to switch off WiFi , else its completely unbearable
I get headaches, there is a slight electrical shock sort of vibrations and also Eyes become sore.
I am not kidding, I have used Samsung phones , Huawei Honor phones and never had any issues.
I am forced to switch off WiFi , else phone is extremely difficult to use.
Pls advice any troubleshooting tips to find the issue.
Pls share the call center number for me to follow up. I searched on Google and didnt find the number
Do you guys face any issues pertaining to one mentioned above ?
Thanks in advance.
I think it varies from user to user.I remember seeing a review on YouTube in which the reviewer said the same thing.i.e,he is feeling strain in his eyes...
This is very unfortunate and I hope you solve this / feel better soon.
here is their number 1800-102-2777

I don't feel it. If you face a shock sensation then go ahead and return it at amazon or ask realme what to do.

Yep it was the review of realme 1.
No as of now I don't feel anything and I am not getting any headaches...
HI @all
Updates: Did a few more experiments
1) disabled 2nd SIM and straight off the bat there was lot more radiation
Also
2) Did SIM swap at Vodafone for both the SIMs (i.e got new SIM with 4G enabled) and enabled both the SIM again
And now no more headaches/eyes strain/etc
All is well now.
We can close this thread.
Summary : Do a SIM swap if not already should you experience high Radiation.
My realme narzo 30a causing severe headaches as well what 2 do??
Plz help
