Just got the wife's S9+ back from screen repair and now there are horrible dots on any pictures that are taken using either the front or back cameras. They are on the screen even before taking any pictures and then show up on all pictures no matter the lighting , angle, or anything. Has anyone seen this? Is it a known issue or do you think something happen when the screen got broke (was smashed in car door but only the screen was broke not the body or anything. It was in an otterbox) or could something have happened when they replaced the screen?

Hi all,
Today I dropped my S3...on my bedroom carpet and although there are visibly no cracks or scatches on the surface of the screen when I went to unlock it the touch screen wouldn't work and there is a small black area in the top right hand corner. Just now I tried to see if it would work but found that the colour of my screen has turned to a blue hue
All the buttons are still working fine
The phone is still under warranty so would going the samsung service centre be worth a try?
or would I have to get the screen replaced or something, what are my options?
Any estimates on approx costs too are appreciated!
Thanks
Photos if that helps...sorry for bad lighting x-x

The screen will need to be replaced, take it to samsung. it won't be covered by warranty though
Does anyone know how to turn off taking photo with touching to screen screen touch while using front came. Because of having edge screen it is easy to take blurry and wrong photo while touching to sides. Any idea?
I got my Moto z in June. Starting about a month ago I have these black spots on pictures. My warranty has been voided since the 3rd day of ownership due to unlocking the bootloader. The strange part is my phone is never in my pocket or anything. It's always on my desk. I don't like the phone in my pocket due to it's size.
Any ideas on how I could fix this? Wiping the camera doesn't do anything. I've also tried shaking the hell out of the phone and that doesn't do anything either.
Thanks
Did you ever drop the phone?
Those spots are really small and precise, I certainly am not sure if those are really small dust particles or damaged pixels.

No it's never been dropped. The problem just sort of came out of nowhere

EDIT: Just to clarify, the picture I posted in the first post is a picture the camera took. The black dots appear in pictures taken with the rear camera (front is fine).
My rear camera isn't working properly anymore so I was just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem so if I can confirm the likely culprit. Whenever I use the rear camera the screen is mainly purple and pixelated and I can only just about see the background through it all.
The front (selfie) camera is fine so I'm just thinking about replacing the camera at the back but thought I'd ask around in case anyone knew of any other common problem it could be in case I was barking up the wrong tree.
I tried to upload a picture of what it looked like but couldn't manage it.
I've watched a couple of YouTube videos on how to replace it and I'm happy to have a go but if anyone's got any experience/advice on that too it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
I had same problem two weeks ago. Suddently the rear camera gone to pink the frontal was good. After the initial panic, I've tried to search internet, on some forums was said to gently push around the rear lens and the camera will show something. Some one says that use this method pushed firmly around the ring and the camera was fixed, some others no.
In my case, pushing around the camera, initially worked for a couple of seconds, then the image was flickering with vertical green lines, noises, and interlaced "grid" grey scan lines like old videogames. then was hardly usable only pushing around the rim for about one minute for take a normal photo. here is the attachments of panic:silly:
I think the camera was damaged by too much overheat that unglued the backplate, and consequentially the use or some hit or light fall may had damaged the flex sensor or the placement lens on the motherboard. In fact in the previous months i had noticed the backplate was moving if poked with fingers on the edges. I mean gently pressed and the back plate was moving. Doing the pressure factory test, it was around 1020,3-1001Millibar on static and changed when pressed on screen or on the back. I had a dbrand skin on the back and due to the heat shrinked and became smaller. I think the overheat was caused by the firmware updates and some app that sucked away the battery in years. Upgrading from Lollipop, twice to MM, to Nougat, in years and then in the last time some flash to MM and then to Nougat again give it the final hit, especially the first time power up after flashing when you have to set everything from scratch.
I sent it in warranty repair, for camera damaged, added the request to swap battery due to duration (because on June the warranty ends ) and to check and fix the IP68 requirements, also noticing very overheat issues.
Now the pressure test is a solid fixed 999,01-999,03Millibar and the feel is more solid in general when handled. If you have luck when Sony repair it, the screen protector on the front if you have applied, won't be touched, only the back.
good luck
So did they just replace the camera module that is plugged in to the top at the back? (obviously apart from battery too).
Your post seems to suggest overheat which caused motherboard damage too.
Unless I've read it wrong you're suggesting swapping the camera will fix the problem.
I know I'd obviously need a new back cover too.
