My camera is terrible. The pictures are always grainy and such. When you look at the camera lense, there is some sort of film over it and i can not get it off... Any ideas?
What operating system are you using, ics, stuck, jb?

Cm9.1 stable.
Have you gone into settings and adjusted anything? I was on ics for about a week, don't remember your options.I'd make all the settings the highest they can go. Try a better camera app from the market.

No. But I think I will have to mess with the white balance. My pictures just look absolutely washed out.
Gee. Just take it to the att store and say see..its broke I need it replaced. That's what I did when the autofocus quit working.

No. I run Cm9.1. The warranty is void.
They won't know if you return. To stock unroot we don't check at my store.

There IS a film on it. Only some notes have them. My gf got hers at best buy, same as me. Hers black, mine white. Hers had the film over the camera lens, mine didn't.

I think you have dirt under it on the camera lense, or its a scratched camera lense.
Or
Do do you see these on the screen too even when not using the camera?

You could try to wipe off the lens. I use a lint free cloth that came with my sunglasses... or my T-shirt when I'm in a jam.
I normally don't see those spots on my screen. And if I look at the lense it doesn't look scratched...
I cleaned it with a peace of cloth and the spots are still there....
Is there a way to open the camera or something?

Then its on the inside of the lense. You need to probably need to google the lense issue since guides are all over the place. If I come across one, I will let you know since I am curious too.

Thank you for the quick reply.
I can only find guides for other phones... Is the process the same?

Don't know. I personally have never modded a camera before.
Sent from my Atrix 4G with XDA Premium App
You could check out iFixit.com They have a tear down tutorial for the Atrix. From what I can tell, the camera is a solid piece which is soldered to the ribbon. If the dirt is on the inside of the lens itself, you may need to replace it.

If it's the front camera, check out this thread.

Hey seipsje,
Bringing this old thread up as I am facing a similar issue with my Photon 4g. But in my case, its just a single black dot.
Check this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403912
I had 1 question, I dunno what up with your phone atm, but do you remember, when you zoomed in, did the black dots change their positions?
Seeing as how we have one of the best cameras on our handset, lets see what you've got!
While we're at it, let everyone know if this is the best camera you've ever owned and if you used any special settings other than automatic.
I'll start off...
Macro shot. everything else on auto.
That's one big ass praying mantis. I can't post any of my pics. They're naughty. LOL.
But anyway. The camera is good. Not sure if its any better than the one on the infuse.

Same camera hardware as the Infuse. I like the camera app better though. Especially the customizable shortcuts.

Just got around to taking some pics after a week of owning the Note. The camera shows a bright and saturated live view but the resulting picture looks dull and drabby. It's like night and day.
I've tried every setting possible. Anybody else get this problem?

The pic of the frog in the screenshot is sitting in my hand. When I go to the pic, he's jumping off. 2-3 second delay...what's up with that? Any fix? I'm stock with latest release.

I think it has more to do with the auto focus more than anything.

Did anyone else see this? There was a mention of the S- pen and Galaxy. Didn't not say anything about the Note II. Could it be a tease for the Galaxy S4? Or possibly the next Note device? They have a very quick glimpse of it, it did not seem to be a tablet. Looked like a phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
I also caught they never showed the phone or had a specific name for the phone.
It was a Note II.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
The did show it. Front and back view, but it's only shown for a split second. The video is OK on you tube. I took a screen shot and zoomed in... It looks like it is just the Note 2. But I can't say with 100% certainty

The color was a light blue, so I guess they are gonna bring out new colors? And if you look closely, you can see a hinge on the right side as if it has a built in screen cover.

Yeah, I suppose your right. Just really odd that they avoided calling it a Note Ii. Only referencing the S- pen and " Galaxy"
