weird camera problem - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

Anyone know what's going on here or how to fix it?
I can't figure out why, but my camera had this weird bubble-like line going through all my photos. Been happening for about a month or so, all in the same spot.
I don't think it's a scratch, the lens looks pretty clean.

Any thoughts on this? Outlandish theories? Conspiracy theories? bad ideas? unrelated ideas?

My Back camera is taking weird...pictures

i have attached a picture i just took... it looks kinda infared,.. kinda with the colors blurried... front works perfectly. running baked snack but this also did the same thing on fresh rom.
i dont see the picture!!! lol
lol just fixed it
hmmm, I was trying to recreate the problem on my phone. It almost looks like a low light shot? Have you tried in other areas of the house with different lighting?
By the way, is that spatula part of your tools or cooking utensils
Edit, also have you made sure your lens is clean and all that?

yeah it's all clean, if you could see the picture on the phone... it looks like 1 of those weak heat showing cameras... where theres red,yellow,orange and then coolest is blue. i dunno wtf it is. i did just get the invisible shield put on it yesterday... but its not covering the lens
lol, you dont have one of the camera effects on do you? while in camera press menu and select the paint pallet thing
there is a clear difference from the front camera to the back camera is the problem. no effects. normal.
hmmm, I said that because when I was messing with mine, the solarize option made it look like the photo you took, different colors depending on light intensity. Maybe try toggling it on and off just to see. Other than that though, I have no clue so I am sorry I could not help!!!
i'm thinking about taking it into best buy and having it checked out, should i flash it back to stock with the RUU before i do so? i can just see one of the geeksquad retards saying "oh it's because you've rooted it" or some BS like that
To be safe I would. Most people say, and I believe, that hardly anyone would notice but I'm paranoid like that. Plus doing an ruu will ensure it wasn't something during the rooting or flashing process.
i have wiped cache,delvic etc.. etc... reset to default settings. still doesn't matter, doesn't matter what rom i use etc.. i am going to flash back to stock and see... i never looked at the camera on stock heh
im thinking the problem is with the invisible shield u installed, it looks like the solvent that comes for the shield might have sipped through the glass covering the lens and gotten directly on the lens itself.
Any recommendations if indeed this could be a culprit? i am assuming the glass on top of the camera just doesn't come off...
i cant think of any solution off the top of my head..i'll try poking around my phone to see if i can find any way around it for you
That picture looks creepy though. Like something from Saw, perhaps.
No you just got the only thermal imaging HTC evo made.... ill buy it.,jk

sorry for bumpin an old thread. but this happened to me tonight. would sprint give me new phone under warranty?
I'd just unroot if rooted, being it to your local corporate store, and they should replace it under HTC warranty

I'm having problems with my camera on MIUI too. It either isn't recognized or just force closes. sucks real bad.
The camera is broken, you'll have to unroot, and take it to sprint, or live with it.

[Q] Yellow tint blob taking over screen

So I noticed this yellow tint blob thing coming from the right side of my gs2 screen. At first I though I was crazy, but it has been growing. It started as barely noticeable, and now it takes up half of the screen. I tried searching for similar issues but couldn't find much.
Here's a pic. http://imgur.com/zW3kgG2
Anyone else ever had this issue? Advice?
Thanks!

Looks like a magnet issue to me, did you have it close to one? Sometimes other electronic devices can also cause it.
Not that I can recall... I don't find myself around magnets too often :S I did drop it on the tile a couple days ago. It wasn't that far of a drop, and the back cover popped off. Maybe it landed awkwardly and messed something up.

Anyone's camera flash ruin every picture?

Got a replacement camera for my cracked bezel recently and I just realized the camera doesn't seem to work right. When I take a picture with the flash on, the picture comes out looking like nothing but a big white light. Anyone else have this issue or maybe a fix?

You probably got a bad phone and need to do a replacement again. Keep in mind I'm not trying to be rude with this next comment. This is why you don't exchange a perfectly working phone just because it has a crack. Chances are the refurbished phone you get in return is going to suck a$$.

noticed a problem with my phone's camera

when it was windy it look weird and I noticed when my phone vibrate when i get message I get awavy lines
is this a defect do you guys think with my camera on my phone?
has anybody else had this issue?
video here
No, it's the lens shaking, nothing you can do about it. Take pictures when the phone isn't vibrating or it isn't very windy.

A grey spot keeps appearing on my rear camera photos, any idea what it is?

Image 1
Image 1
Here are 2 pictures I've taken with the rear facing camera. As you can see, there's this weird smudgy thing in the photos towards the left side (the top of the lens). Would anyone have any idea what this could be? I tried wiping the lens window, removing the lens window and wiping the actual lens itself (carefully). Along with wiping both of these surfaces, I also shook the phone a bit and tapped around the lens to see if anything would be knocked loose. But no, it's still there. Something tells me it could be software related, as I cannot see any physical damage. But I guess it could also be some sort of connection problem.
I'm really hoping I don't have to send this away to be repaired, so does anyone know what causes this? I also really don't want to have to replace the whole lens or send it back to Taiwan for 4 weeks. I'd really like to just know what this is so I can fix it.
You need to go deeper (don't know if it's possible). To me it looks like dust on the image sensor itself. Had something like this on a Sony digital camera, was able to get to the sensor and clean it myself after seeing it done at the service the first time.
Don't know if it's possible to get there on G4's camera though.
