picture on my phone
is it the phone?..if not can it be fixed?

If the phone's screen was bad, then the screenshot wouldn't look as bad. That's because the screenshot app doesn't take a pic of what's on it screen. It's taken from the rendering coming out of the GPU.
So don't worry, there's nothing wrong with your screen. Its probably the ROM.... or maybe someone somehow screwed up your GPU .

Seems to be a problem with the gallery app. I have/had the same problem. I wanted to have a specific picture as my wallpaper and the endquality looked horrible like in your screenshot. I read somewhere while googling, that the gallery app downscales the pictures in some way (correct me if im wrong).
If you want to make that picture as a wallpaper and want to keep the quality i can recommend the app "Crop Wallpaper". It lets you crop your pictures while keeping it's original quality and sets it as your wallpaper.

Camera quality

Thought I'd have a look at the quuality of the camera, compared to the Desire. Discovered that I have a problem with focus on the left side of the picture, and wondered whether anyone else has it.
3 photos, reduced using the same method. Canon (for reference), DHD and Desire:

Regular Desire:
Now, we can look at 1:1 crops to examine the quality:
You can see that stuff on the left is out of focus - this shot shows it well:
Finally, my phone is an early one with bad camera and sim cover alignment. Not sure if it matters, but here are close ups anyway. Anyone else with a left hand focus issue?
I can definitely see your point, I will test this on my DHD tomorrow.
i can just about see it, but honestly i would worry more about the over sharpening and terrible white balance on this phone. testing it earlier it gave my girlfriend the skin tone of a Simpson...
just took a shot outside, havnt changed any settings
I've just taken delivery of a DHD and have exactly the same left side focus problem. How did you resolve this - or you returned / replaced your unit?
weird. mine seems to be fine.

An App Develope request, to solve no FFC problem

My HD2 is a great phone, wheather when its a WM6.5, or after I rooted to Android. I mean, come on, its been on the market for like 3yrs.
The only thing that sucks is the absent of a Front Face Camera
I found this idea below, which inspire me to make a similar thing to it.
However, the image will be upside down, with my little Periscope .
Is that possible someone make an app that make my camera does upside down?
There are some stock roms that has the problem with upside down camera, If someone could make a repair file out of it, I guess someone else could use those problematic file to create an app, that would automatically sub the original camera setting files into the upside down one, once you are done with your video chat, you could go back and reset it normal.
Possible ? I'm confident many of us are willing to make a donation, and the concept doesn't sound very challenging ( sorry, I'm not a com. sci, major )
I wish I know how to write apps.
Any input?

I'd say the first one, since it says 'Pro HDR Camera' in the topic subject.
I tried the free HDR one, the photos turned out really nice actually. I'm unsure of why it has only 3 stars. I only took two pictures but it seemed to do what it was supposed to.

The one right at the top - same as in my subject line
(EDIT) For the heck of it, I tried the free version posted here; doesn't seem to be too friendly with the new 2.3.4 CM7 ROM.. kept hanging. HDR Camera Pro works ok but a bit sluggy.
Very nice!

Black spots on camera

So i just updated to KF3 since it just released and rooted afterwards. Then I noticed this in the camera.

I'm sure its not hardware problem because before the update it was not looking like this. And yes,the lens is clean. Tried cleaning it a lot of times but looks like its with the camera software.
Have you taken several shots to see if it's in the same place each time?
Sadly they're always on the same spot. I'm downloading my old firmware now (KE7) and hopefully it goes back to normal.
duuuude u have takin a picture to a ghost kiddin. try to chance the resolution of ur camera.
oh, btw, one question: they appear in the picture 2? or u can see it just on u`r sgs2 screen?
They appear on the picture too as you can see it in the picture i posted.
indeed, sorry, i`m a little bit tired. How is with the downgrade? something changed?
Just checked mine on kf3 and no spots, look at the glass protecting your camera and look for small scratches or marks? It could be that sadly?

[Discussion] notice poor picture quality sending Android UI screenshots in some apps

My phone is HTC U11 and right now I'm on ViperU 2.3 ROM (Oreo). Found weird jagged stroke on UI screenshots send by apps, I wonder if anyone with same or different phone has seen or noticed. To be clear when the UI is at first captured, the image quality is good.

But if I send them in certains apps (Telegram etc. but not limited to Telegram) the downgraded picture looks ugly at the edge of lines and strokes, jagged. You can even see that line of dots disappears due to the same reason.......
I have compared with my friend's image (I let him send me the same shot) in the app, but that looks fine despite the blurred quality, even though we are on the same phone and the same ROM.
Now when sending shots in some apps that I'm actually concerning image quality this is frustrating since most apps downgrade image and that jagged edge is destroying the image......
Dose that have something to do with Android thumbnailing algorithm which in the saying for years is way worse than what iOS applies? Wish some one has some talk over this...
