Today I tried using average metering mode of the camera. Surprisingly, the screen got dark and quite long time later I heard the shutter sound. But no photo was taken. You can stop camera and move to other applications. But when you try to use camera again, most of time you cannot unless you restart the mobile.
anybody else has found this problem? Any resolution?
Many thanks.
The same
I just tried it and I've had the same result than you. It's a Mozart from Spain. All the others parameters were default.
We'll have to report this bug .
thanks for the reply. So I am not alone. Mine is from Orange UK. Yes, we should report. I will report to Orange to see what their reaction is. Please report to your retailer, and let us know what it will do.

Hi there.
Getting the same camera bug. But that's when I set the camery mode to "Landscape". The only way to fix it, is to reboot the phone.
Hopefully, Win7 Phone boots very fast...
Microsoft's going to release some patches in early 2011, they should correct that bug and others by the way.
same here hope they fix it soon
God damn it. The same with my Orange France HTC Mozart.
How can u possibly realease a phone with a bug like that Not that I would care about using a different metering mode. But nontheless...
no issues with metering mode
set to average and spot
set scene to landscape
set not freezing
how come most people have issues with theirs
i have not experienced any issues with mine
works very ok
Hi guys,
Can please somebody test for me if have similar issue as me...
I noticed that the grey on SGS2 suffers a lot in quality... more visible on reduced light.
I did create a file in Photoshop with fixed grey value.. as you can see from the screenshot attached sgs2 goes more magenta instead of grey+ plus there is a lot of noise too around this value R 100 G 100 B 100
As far as i know the grey is the most difficult color to display because needs to use all 3 leds in the same time...
Anyhow pls let me know if u also have distorted results as me!
Thank you
Yeah, my icons definitely look darker and has a redder tint to them side by side with the SGS. I've been informed that it has to do with Gingerbread as well, about how Gingerbread hosed up the colors.
I have exactly the same problem. All greys look pink / magenta. I am right now trying to replace my unit because of it.

Why replace it? It's not a fault with the phone. Your next unit will be exactly the same.
Mine looks grey. No pink tint

Except it isn't, as I don't suffer from it at all regardless of the brightness and background effect.
same here: no pink/magenta on the testpic. looks exactly the same as with my computer monitor.
that is very sad news, seems i need to change my device....
Carnt open that file ..
How do i test?.

the file test it is in a zip file, you need winzip or winrar to extract the file, after that you can copy to your device and view it...
Also, i made the test on another sgs2 device and they grey is as is supposed to be...
Do we think is a software or hardware problem this is the question?

I hate to say it but I suspect it's a hardware fault with some individual panels, although whether Samsung would view it as a fault is another matter. These screens are incredibly difficult to make and almost impossible to make every one identically, so it's inevitable some will be less than perfect even if that imperfection is only noticeable in certain circumstances (a grey screen in this case). There is another thread on here with someone having a yellowish hue line down the left of their screen when the screen is a certain colour -- another example of a similar issue.
Found it. Check the post out.

if that is the case, a lot of devices will go back... first sgs software was horrible, now sgs2 hardware? damn it samgung u`ve done it again!
Yep, nothing wrong with mine either using that greyscale test image.
Imagine its a bad batch of SGS2's out there somewhere.
Mine is grey, like the SGS pic in the Op I know what teh pink looks like as my Desire AMOLED version was pinked
Those with clean gray, can you please post what firmware/baseband version are u using?

Hi, I've noticed faint lines across my SGS2 screen, they come and go, sometimes more visible than others. Has anyone experienced the same? Is it a software or hardware issue? If there's already a similar thread please provide the link to it.
Thanks
Not sure about the line issue but the sgs2 i9100 has vietnam and korean/chinese manufacturing locations.

^as you can see the quality of the screens are different. Lines issue could be related to where the phone is made?
Just my thoughts
Hi all,
I'm looking at a Galaxy Tab 10.1 for a friend: everything seems to work fine except the screen is a bit stuffed. It really looks like the colour depth has been set to something ridiculously low, but I can't see anywhere to change this. See attached images of the stock wallpaper and the second test image posted by asolanki in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603650.
I had to take pictures of these links: if I just did a screen shot and emailed the images then although the screen shot showed the banding / colour depth problem, the emailed images looked fine.
I've done a factory reset, but still the same. Could this be a hardware issue?
Model: GT-P7510
Version: 3.2
Kernel: 2.6.36.4 [email protected] #1
Build: HTJ85B.UEKMP.P7510UEKMP
Has anyone ever seen anything like this, or have any suggestions? If it's a software problem, could rooting the device and/or installing a custom ROM help in any way?
Thanks,
Barney

Rest assured that is an hardware issue, and a screenshot (taken with the software) won't show us the stains on the device's display you will have to take a photo of the display and post it, so people can compare it, your best bet is to put that tablet on warranty service :|
The same thing happened to my tab yesterday. I left the tab off during the night and when I fired it up this morning it was OK for about 5 minutes. After that the banding/colour depth display problem returned. It sure looks like a hardware problem. Not so good for me since i bought my tab in the US and the without the global waranty (I live in Europe).
SOLVED:
I removed the tab from its Belkin case and placed the tab in the fridge for 30 minutes. After that it looks as if the tab is OK again.
That's weird - I saw your post and wondered if it was overheating, so tried the fridge thing myself. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me, so looks like it's stuffed! Oh well - hope yours stays working - a bit tricky to have to sit in the fridge to use it!!!
Cheers,
Hello friends, I am having problems with the main camera of my LG V30. When I open the camera it looks blurry and very bad, I do not know if it's because of the software or something, so I'm trying to try another firmware to see if that's it. If anyone has any ideas, please. I bought it on Ebay, the truth is almost new, everything is fine, it's just that little problem with the camera.
Same, problem. But I don't know how to solve it
Can you provide some sample images from main and wide angle camera shooting the same object.
Same issue, ATT from ebay, images worse than LG G6

Are you talking about ACTUAL picture taken or the camera viewfinder image before the picture is taken?
Also, what firmware version are you on?
This guy seems to be talking about the image he sees BEFORE the picture is actually taken:

Whereas the pictures themselves are probably great.
Sorry to hear. I have an ATT from Ebay and no issues, thankfully.
Have you tried a different camera app? There are numerous ports of the google camera app for the LG phone(s). You can try this one if you like, from my google drive: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1vXvtN7ZkUzahMEbSWKzwHSd68QRdp257
It's the NOHEX_MGC_6 version, it has night sight abilities.
But... any other camera app will tell you if it's the app or the lens. If it's the lens... well that's very unfortunate.

This issue is visible mainly on pictures taken, its also observable while taking them. Its worst on wide angle cam.
Is the custom camera app able to handle wide angle cam?
I dont have the phone on me, I will add info when i get back home.

Yes the google port camera app does do wide angle. But! I'd honestly suggest first thing you do is download any basic camera app from playstore. All you want to do initially is find out if the problem is the app or the lens. And (other) camera app will tell you that.
ONCE! you know which of the 2 is the problem, THEN proceed from there. I wouldn't go flashing other firmware, which is a pretty involved thing to do, when you could simply get another cam app on it and discover which of the 2 possibilities is the problem.

tested another app with slightly different output, but overall not as good as my g6, so this points to be a deeper level of an issue (hw or some driver?)
refer to comparison of v30 and g6 for standard and wide angle (try to guess which one is which, hint is v30 is worse in both)
imgur dot com/ a/ fTF78kb (i cant post link yet, replace dot and remove spaces)

Yes no doubt, the V30 pics are less detailed / overall less appealing.
As ChazzMatt asked, what firmware are you running? ** IF ** it's a normal LG rom, for that type of device (the V30), then it's pretty apparent there's something wrong with the lenses.
I've owned a few G6's myself, am familiar with it's pics and (camera) specs, the V30 has better specs and (in my experience) better results also.
Honestly, the pics you indicate are from the V30 (from the specs it's easy to know which is which), look as though they are from a much inferior phone / camera.
Is there any chance you have them labeled wrong? One thing to keep in mind, with either the f2.4 or f1.9 wide angle, you need quite a lot of light to get a good picture. It does not have auto focus. Focus is set to infinity by default. So a lot of light is needed for a good pic.
As bizarre as it may sound, your pics might be considered typical of the 2, if the labels were exactly wrong!
Sorry, that's all I can think at the moment.

sw version is h93120d, kernel 4.4.78, build opr1.170623.026 - is any of that what you are asking about?
and yes, the labels are correct, they are autogenerated by zoner and I just screenshot-ed those with the actual pics.
the ebay seller (US) mentioned that the phone is under LG warranty, any idea if I can verify that or if will be able to RMA it at LG in other country (CZ, got my phone a business trip)?

I'd call LG and ask them about warranty / out of country repairs. I've never needed repairs from them so no idea how that will go.
Yes you're obviously using official LG firmware on the device, but that's not the latest available? I'd update to the latest version and hope, as you were originally thinking, it may be a driver in your version firmware? If there's no version available for update (from settings), then consider using LGUP? Downloading the most recent kdz is time consuming but might be worth a shot...
Look for directions to use LGUP, it's not bad. Need a Windows machine to run that software though.
