I was browsing through the gallery just now and noticed a dead pixel. Or what I thought was a dead pixel.
When swiping through the gallery, there is a picture of a pink flower, followed by a black and white photo of a man. The b&w photo is portrait. I had the phone in landscape mode.
In the black space in the top left, I noticed a red dead pixel. I swore and carried on swiping.
Next was a landscape picture of a dog, but I noticed as I continued swiping that the dead pixel was still there.
Next is a skater in portrait mode...and the dead pixel is gone!
I swipe back, it comes back.
Swipe forward, it's gone again.
Anyone else's do this? I had to do it in a dark room to notice.

This sounds like the dead pixel may be in the photo rather than the phone.
If you only get a dead pixel on specific photos, but cannot get the same result on any other screen on the phone, then it is probably the photo.
Take a photo so that the image is black (photo dark piece of cloth) if resulting picture has dead pixel, it is phone screen and you have a dead pixel, but one pixel should not cause too much problem.
With LCD screens, normally there is a percentage of pixels that can be faulty before it is classed as defective under warranty or sale of goods act.

That's what I originally thought, but the dead pixel remains stationary when swiping between the photos! It's so strange!

if it was porn pictures, then the red dot is god's eye watching you
If you see a red pixel illuminated against what should be black, you could have a stuck subpixel. A "dead" pixel implies the inverse; a black pixel where there should be colour.
On the photo of the man in black&white, with the phone rotated landscape, there are black spaces either side of the photo as it was taken in portrait.
On my phone, these black spaces are pure black.
When you display a picture with colour that occupies the space of the pixel in question, you wont notice it. Each pixel has three smaller subpixels that make up the colour; a red, green, and blue one. When the stuck pixel's nextdoor neighbours switch on, you won't notice the problem. The problem is that this pixel won't turn off.
If you want to return the phone, I'd make your mind up and do so as soon as possible while you still can - but perhaps using the proximity sensor thing as the reason, as most manufacturers/shops won't accept dead/stuck pixels as a return reason unless theres several of them, or if they're right in the middle of the screen.
Best of luck mate.
I'm not sure if you're understanding me. It's actually ok, just not when looking at that particular photo! I'm just trying to understand why. It's fine everywhere else, just not on that photo. But its not the photo as it doesn't move with the photo when it swipe.

Oh right!
That's strange then! I can't reproduce the behavior on mine, I'm afraid.
Did you change the UI skin from the default?
A red pixel is just stuck, I had one on my laptop and I used a program the flashed colours over it and after an hour it was gone, a black pixel will be there for life ..
It happens will lcd sometimes
Doubt anyone has made a program on the android market for this though

I made a very poor video of it. Need to set it to 480p and watch fullscreen to see the stuck pixel.
I can't see that pixel you are talking about...had another look tonight
I saw it. It's kind of a glowing red light more than a stuck pixel. Very strange indeed.

Yep - very strange. I think you have full rights to write HTC about this and ask for explanations.
Hey,I know apart from dead pixels,there are some other 'bad pixels' like colourful pixel(sorry,I translate it directly from Chinese,that's what we call them.There must be an English name.) and white pixel.Different kinds of bad pixels behave various from different colours of background.That's why you can see them in some situations while some you can't.We often test 'bad pixels' of screens of laptops with several colours of background when shopping.
Maybe you could give this a try as well: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.jscreenfix.android
Good luck mate!
Edit: Instructions say that you have to leave it running for about 10 minutes.
I mean it in a literal sense.
If you look at the image below, youll be able to see that its a bit blurry,
I've drawn 2 black lines in the image, notice that the top and the bottom is blurry and the center is focused.
It doesnt occur alot, but it does happen and sometimes even in videos.
Any help as to why? Perhaps 4.2.2 might fix this?
I think the DOF is so narrow because the lens has a wide aperture of F2.0 which helps in low light.

Can you explain what DOF is?
Is there anyway I could fix it? You think anyone else has this problem?
"depth of field (DOF) is the distance between the nearest and farthest objects in a scene that appear acceptably sharp in an image." - (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_field)
And I don't think it's a problem. It's just how the lens is made with a large aperture to allow more light in to the image sensor.
You could try to compensate this a bit by increasing the sharpness from the camera menu.
I'd be more concerned with the poor dynamic range shown in the top of the pic. ;O)

That`s totally normal for the one, it only exposes the focus point, instead of the whole image, could htc not have given us a choice

Well that sucks. One of the reasons I bought this phone was for the camera.
Do you know anyway I could fix this? or atleast minimize it?
The problem is when the image contains both dark and bright areas, if you focus on the bright, the dark areas will be underexposed and if you focus on the dark the bright areas will be overexposed, you need to find an area to focus on that will give you an average exposure for the entire image.
I have the same problem, but some photo`s are amazing and some are utter crap.
Try using hdr mode, it takes multiple images at different exposure levels and then integrates them into one photo, but you need to keep the phone very steady, hopefully HTC will fix this problem.

Mine does this as well. Easiest fix I've come across is just tapping on the screen in the area you want focused...it seems to hold focus better after the first time and the photos look a lot better.
Problem is, I generally forget about this until after the first picture is taken without it. So it's a process for sure.

Mine is the same way. Wasn't bashing the camera was just giving my first impression of the pic posted. I think the camera is excellent for a phone. Small sensor and tiny optics will only go so far. This device is fantastic as an overall package.

The sensor is great for a phone camera, but the software that does the exposure is very very poor or am i missing something???

Why are all you guys saying this is normal? Either you have defective phones or you don't know how to take pictures! ... The only time my One does this is when I use touch to focus on Macro mode. I have taken hundreds of pictures and no pictures look like yours unless I wanted them to.
Agreed. The picture in the OP looks like an issue with OIS, not depth of field.
If it was a one time thing then this thread doesn't need to exist. If it happens a lot the phone needs to be replaced.

I do think it's a flaw in the camera software that exposure and focus can't be decoupled. I LOVE the shallow depth of field but can't use it property because touching-to-focus blows out highlights.

Most of these comments come from people who have no idea what they're talking about.
Your phone is perfect. Nothing wrong with it. All you did was tap to focus on the middle of the picture.
This did 2 things.
1. It will FOCUS on the center of the pic. Other areas will be blurred. Hence the term, focus. That's how cameras work.
2. The exposure was adjusted to where you focused it to. What does that mean?
If you focused on a light area the camera will adjust the exposure to compensate. What that means is if it's light, the camera will darken the overall image. Lights become darker, farms become darker.
If the photo is focused on a dark area, the camera will adjust the photo by making the dark area brighter and the bright areas, as a result, brighter. Which is why you have super white skies.
To fix it, go to the camera settings and I think select touch to capture. But to say fix means it's a problem.
It's not.
For landscapes, use landscape mode which will focus on the entire image and bot blur. Also you can tap on the area where you want adjusted, ie brighter or darker. Blur again is only cause you focused. Don't focus on landscapes.
Photographer here. Focus on this comment and not anyone who says your phone is messed up. This is why.
Take a look at my two attached photos. One I clicked on the sky and the other I clicked on the grass. Light then dark. Can you figure out which was which and see what happened to the photo?
Note that it was overcast and cloudy. There were NO BLUE SKIES. it was grey. So the sky wasnt killed by the camera
Btw don't always use Hdr. Don't. Its not a saving grace every time. If you shoot in the sun you're shooting in the sun. Photography rule #1: DON'T.
ALWAYS USE THE SCENES WHEN YOU CAN. WHICH IS WHY THEYTE THERE AND EXIST. SLRS HAVE THEM TOO FKR A REASON!
As for the lines, panorama? Did you move too fast? That's what happens when you do - camera can't stitch properly

The black lines on the image, I DREW to show where it gets blurred (not panaroma).
You're right, but when I focus on the center, all objects in the background should get blurred right? I mean thats how the focus works. You focus on a particular subject (lets assume in the foreground) the objects in background gets blurred.
If you see the image I uploaded (in the top line) the upper part of the tree is blurred and the lower part is focused.
It doesn't work like that right?
Hi Everyone,
Have a look at attached example image to see what I mean.
Please try to take a manual shot with your wide lens in a very dark environment with very high ISO (3200 in example) and exposure time of 5secs plus (20 secs in example).
Everyone who has tried that so far has the same issue, a big purple shadow on the top. It's most likely the laser and it won't happen with the normal lense.
Do you have the same result? Any suggestions what we can do about it?
Whoa! I haven't seen that in a long time. I think maybe around the time of the Nikon D80. I can't currently try this out personally but by the sounds of it what has happened is called Amp Glow. It's when you kind of start getting out of the bounds of what is really acceptable shooting conditions for a given sensor. In this case, if you really are shooting in conditions that call for high ISO AND still need a shutter speed of 20 seconds and the image still comes out that dark, then you're way beyond realistic expectations for shooting with a cellphone. In the older DSLRs, people would see it when doing star trail photos that were 10 minutes or longer. Frame stacking software became the solution to this problem by taking a lot of shorter photos and stacking them up and pulling through the new dots of light. (And this is still used by a lot of photographers as it also gets rid of other forms of noise.)
So what is happening? ISO is pretty much the gain. It's the amplification being applied to the signal coming off of the sensor. Ideally with ANY camera, you want to stay as close to the base ISO of a given sensor. That's usually the lowest ISO number. (There are some exceptions where some camera manufacturers have done some trickery to get a lower ISO to show up but that was short lived as it didn't really help things.) Unfortunately, image sensors are not hanging in space. They're packed in with a ton of other stuff. Stuff that gets warm. If that stuff is near an edge of the sensor, that heat bleeds into the sensor and then those warmed pixels get amplified by the higher ISO and next thing you know, Amp Glow. Well, that's the simplified version at least.
A cellphone, any cellphone, is not designed for those kinds of shots. If they were, they would have a tripod mount, a much better flash, and a much larger sensor. (Yeah, the flash on your cellphone is not meant to light up stuff much past 5 feet. Even the ones built into a DSLR aren't meant for much past about 15-20 feet.) The reality is that cellphones are designed for handheld shots with decent light. Even the larger sensor used in some cellphones shouldn't be expected to pull any miracles that top end DSLRs are just barely pulling off cleanly. For that shot, you would want to use a dedicated camera locked down on a tripod using base ISO and long exposure at the very least. Although, personally, I'd probably just take a pass on that shot.
someone on reddit has the exam same issue with the wide angle. and someone said it's in the regular too. weird. my s7 never had this purple hue when I did even 30 second exposure at night.

something obstructing the lens maybe, or just camera went bad
Better hope this isn't the same problem the HTC one m7 had with the purple haze. The culprit was a light sensor on the camera would overhear and give a purple haze on the screen in low light. Place the phone face down and with the camera on and see if the purple comes back.

No, it won't happen with the same ISO/Shutter settings I took the previously attached photo. But maybe that's because it's not dark enough. Did the M7 issue only happen in dark enviornment as well?

Settings aren't the only part of the equation. The other par is the placement of other components within the device. I need to look at the tear downs to see how the various parts are placed next to each other but something is heating up and passing that heat to the sensor. Just off the top of my head there are four parts together; the two camera sensors, the laser focus module, and the flask module. Each one of those on its own will generate heat if used enough.

It's the same issue. I haven't looked at the HTC issue but from your description of it, it's the same. Amp glow is what it is called in digital photography. (OK, silly that I said digital as you don't get amp glow in film.) The glow will show up because there is no other data coming off of the sensor for those pixels and the heat is amplified as "data".
---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ----------
Ok, just watched the JerryRigEverything repair tear down. The flash module sits right next to the wide angle and the laser focus next to the regular sensor. There is no mention as to what is sitting next to the sensors on the main board but I see silver boxes on each side with one having some sort of black and yellow warning sticker. Not sure what they are so I can't rope them in as culprits. So for now, I'd say it's a combo of the four units of the camera assembly.
Were you running the flash or one of the cameras a lot while you were playing around? Shooting a lot of long exposure shots in a row?
I'll get to test out some night shots and video tonight at a lighting ceremony but I'm still not expecting to shoot 3200 for 20 seconds type shots. Again, that's pretty extreme.
This is my second week with this unit and it's awesome so far! Took some time for the battery life to get up to par, but got that sorted out and now it's a beast!...like the title suggests though, I do have a question about the ultra wide camera. Can someone try going into a dark room, covering the camera lens when the ultra wide camera is activated, and see if you notice light bleed on the view finder when in 3:4 aspect ratio and no filter on? I notice slight light leakage onto the screen if you look around the edges of the viewfinder. You don't have to cover the lens because it is noticeable in really low indoor light conditions or if the room is extremely dark. The other two lens under the same conditions seem fine. It's not a deal breaker or anything, nor will I return the phone, just wondering if anyone else notice. It's very slight. In decent to good light conditions, you don't notice it at all. And I will say that it doesn't show on pics at all. This is just my OCD kicking in lol. The cameras are actually the best I've used on a phone!
I decided to take a screen shot. Take a look at the upper left hand side. Do you see the light leak? With the other camera lens, the viewfinder is pitch black to match the pitch black scene. If indoors and the light conditions are bad, you'll see the distortion on the viewfinder, but the pic will turn out perfect. Only if you do motion picture do you see it a bit. Anyone have this or an explanation? Definitely not enough for me to return the device, but just wondering if it's normal? Zoom into the photo I attached and you'll see it at the top left.
No one can quickly try this and confirm?

No, no protector applied. When I called Samsung, the rep told me it's normal and her unit does the same. I still don't know. But if you tested in a dark room and you don't get it, that means not every unit has it.

I need help to report this issue to Samsung, i cant find any reference online, tried with my GN20 Ultra and my wifes as well.
Alright, heres the issue. In a very dark room, when trying dark mode with the ultra wide lense, 50% of time after a long processing time, photo comes as a white noise with lines, i will post some pictures, and trust me i can make this happen anytime. So far it only happens with the ultra wide lense using dark mode on a really dark environment like stated.
Ok so now after uploading some photos i realized while zooming happens the same, wtf!
Can someone else please give this a try and report back!

That could be hardware (the banding indicates that)... if it persists.
Noise should be more or less evenly spread out.
See if lower temperatures alter it.
Try clearing cam data and clear the system cache from the boot menu. Do a hard reboot.

Grainy is normal, prominent lines are not.
In a perfectly dark room you'll see random background noise from the cam sensor it's self; this is normal.
If you cool the cam the noise level will decrease and increase as it gets hotter.
