[Q] Red face in front camera? - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hi guys,
my friend bought a new Huawei Ascend P6 and is totaly disappointed. Well, he likes the phone alot but when he takes pictures with the front camera of his phone, his face looks very red, really unnaatural. He does not use any effects or so. Do you have any idea? Or is there a hidden option to disable that color-thing?
Oh and he said that when the camera focuses the wall behnd him, his face is not sharp, but the colors are normal.
Also he used an alternative camera app, but with the same results.
Greetings and sorry for my english

Well, he has that problem twice now, because he send his first one back to amazon and got a new one. Same problem again
Yesterday I used his phone and tried the camera. In the moment, when the camera is focusing on your face, the face turnes red and colorfull. When it is focusing on the thing behind me, my face turnes to the normal color.
I never had some kind of promblem an my phones... :/

Dust on rear camera

Hey Fairphoners,
I guess you've heard about the problem of having dust inside the phone and on the camera (see main fairphone post or https://fairphone.zendesk.com/hc/communities/public/questions/200997773-dust-inside-phone).
How are you dealing with this? I myself had to open my phone recently to clean it and now, a few weeks later, my camera can't focus again..
If many people are affected by this problem one could (and should) get in touch with the fairphone staff.
Greetings!
Bump!
I won't believe that no one else experienced this problem yet, so let me ask this: how many of you still use their cam since the beginning without having cleaned it.
Don't be so shy
I do, though it might be my low standards.

I did it yesterday after I finally got me the fitting tools.
It's way better again and the pictures are better. You see it best, when looking at details (I compared a dusty one with the cleaned one, when taking a picture from the same object)
But since then my microphoe is really almost silent. I have to speak really loud so the other side will hear me...
I did not do anything to the microphone...
Anyone an idea?
@Vinnl: So, did I get it right that your camera still focuses correctly (especially when you are close to the object)? Or did you mean that you are not really using the camera..?
@haiag: Hmm.. I did not experience nor hear about such a difference in the microphone sensitivity - maybe some of the connectors/connecting parts on the motherboard have been touched?

I don't know what "correctly" is, but most of the times is focuses, sometimes it doesn't, but I guess that is normal? I use it now and then, but not that extensively.
I got my FP1 in January and took a number of pictures since then (~700 or so). Never had problems, no dust, no focus issues, no red tinting. I even can't remember where I put my Casio Cam as the FP1 makes faster and better snapshots. But I think that won't help you anyway now, does it?
Argh, you guys have been lucky with the phone..
But thanks for the answers, 'cause any answer is better than no answer
PS: To test your focus just take a picture of a text and see if it's sharp/readable afterwards.
Mine can't focus a text on a piece of paper anymore.. Either it shows the red rectangle and it doesn't take the pic or the green one but then the pic is not readable/completely blurred (and I mean like *completely*)

This is what I get: https://i.imgur.com/0rAk4nS.png
(If I move the camera closer to the paper it cannot focus either, but I suppose that is to be expected at some point.)
^that looks good, compared to my pics

Back Camera is taking blurred pictures

hey guys !
My friend just bought an m5 a couple of weeks ago and he's experiencing a strange thing with the camera. The front camera is working just fine ,but the back camera is taking blurred pictures. When he focuses on something everything is sharp and good right until pic is taken and processed, the results are blurry pictures . Sometimes the camera takes normal sharp pics but the majority of the times its blurred ones, so I'm asking you guys : is it a common thing among all m5 devices or am I missing something in the camera setting ? could it be a software problem or is it more likely to be a hardware defect ?
I'd really like to have your opinions on this as I was the one to convince him to get a Sony device instead of a Samsung even though I'm a note user myself. The device is not rooted , running the latest stock Android Lollipop 5.1 .
Thanks in advance !

I find that the rear camera cannot focus beyond about 10m.
To take the best possible shot focus on something about 1m away in full daylight, if still bad, then definitely a problem.

I am observing the same thing with my Xperia M5 Dual- OK with close up shots only.
Does everyone think this is normal? Or should I be worried that I'd miss capturing important moments?
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
I use Snap camera to avoid such things.
I had a similar problem. In my case the problem was that the hybrid autofocus did not work and only one of the two autofocus methods was working. The result was that roughly half of the times pictures were out of focus (randomly). I solved the problem sending the device to repair. They changed the camera and now everything is working fine. I think this is a quite common problem, since I read many posts reporting a similar problem. By the way: in my case using for instance camera fv5 resulted in good pictures all the time, since this software is capable of using only the working part of the hybrid autofocus. The problem was that focusing was very slow.
Can anyone confirm if the hybrid autofocus problem exists on M5 from 2016 (5.1 Lollipop or it happens just on 6.0.1)? If not sure about year, there is a sticker under SIM slot, use a needle or something similar to pull it. It should be 16WXX (XX is week the phone was manufactured).
Dear Developers, I experience the same main camera problem. The images are vague after 2 meters. I used fv5 app. But, still same quality. In fv5 app, the maximum resolution shows 3.1Mp(2048*1536). But, front cam shows good images and the back one very poor.*
What should I do..? I bought this new M5dual from Amazon yesterday.

Irrelevant sound/noise from camera

Hi guys.
I have a problem in recent days with my 10. I explain it with some examples.
When I'm working in other apps like Telegram, Viber, Instagram and ... I hear a sound from my phone. It's something like activity of camera lenz. If you want to hear it on your phone you can go to camera and switch between front and rear camera.
My question is why ? When I don't use the camera, why it's lenz should make this sound? Go for check in HTC phone repair?
Regards.

Hm do you mean that nearly inaudible little click when the front camera is activated? I couldnt hear it in a normal environment, had to go to a nearly silent room to hear the one little "click" noise at all.

Yep... I hear it when I'm in bed or when I'm working with computer and my phone is on the table. (@home)
I'm not sure that this sound is for front o rear camera!

I think it's front camera, I can hear it when I switch from selfie to front. But it's nearly inaudible on my device.
Yes, this is a normal sound. Going back to my first phone with a front facing camera (HTC Evo 4G *worst naming ever*). I was all in a tizzy back when live wallpapers became a thing. So of course, I had a 'see through' wall paper, which was just either your front or rear camera being used to 'show through' the phone. Looked cool for awhile, got old though.
Anyway.
Any time I unlocked my phone, I would feel/hear that clicking after awhile. Once you're aware that it makes that noise, you can never really tune it out unfortunately, on any device. You'll notice this on everything more than likely now, like I do. lol
TL/DR:
All devices with digital camera lenses make this barely audible 'clicking' noise. This is the camera simply doing it's thing. Don't stress!
Not all digital camera lenses. More specifically, ones with OIS tend to have audible sound as the lens is stabilized to prevent shaking.

Thank's man ...
I have this phone over 3 month, but why recent days this click sound appeared!?
I have a M7 too, never something heard from it.
I found that when I plug my 10 to the charger this occurred again.

Camera Total Blur After a fall

My Lg G3 Ls990 fell down almost from 6 feet. Nothing physically happened to the phone as the Quick circle case protected the phone. My Bad, after a day, opened camera and the whole screen is blur. Tried focusing but the blur didnt go. The green auto focus boxes can be seen but everything is very blur. Any help here is very much thankful and appreciated..( Any solutions related to software other than advicing to change the camera module...)

Definitely sounds like an issue with the autofocus. To confirm, is this on stock firmware with the OnePlus camera app or gcam mod?
As the OnePlus 9 phones use a laser autofocus, I'd check that nothing is obstructing the focus lens first (to the right of the top camera sensor). If you have a camera glass protector, there ones I've used put a hole there to avoid distortion but with the downside dust builds up and I need a qtip to clean it.
If this is right, the reason it works at first is it goes to its default focus level on boot and tapping to focus then directs the laser
Its a stock firmware with One Plus camera app. No lens protektora used. She uses original case what was un the box.
Assuming the laser isn't at fault, I'd say there's likely defective hardware, multiple parts it could be though. You could try the gcam mod app and see if that helps, if it were better there, then we would know its software and not hardware, but that's unlikely given the problem.
Ok. Will try
