Video would be useless without a front facing cam.

Exactly! if i do want to use video, i use Tango Video Calls (from market)

a mirror is all you need if the application can use the camera on back, just a bit awkward

That'd be just plain stupid. If you want video calls on the go just buy a new phone with a front facing camera.

have you ever thought about using speaker phone and rear camera ? why is this stupid ? I might use video calling once a month, I dont need front camera

I know it sounds daft, but is the lens clean? The issue was more with softness around the outer of the pictures i think. Though yours could still be faulty.

It's a new phone had it a day, it started to focus when I 1st started the camera but now it tries but is still blurry

Sounds like theres a fingerprint on the lens then.

ive checked that, its clean like new.

Defect..

Agreed with hamdir. Sounds like a defect. Don't mess around, just send it back.

I had the same problem. Mine in currently in the Royal Mail postal system on its way back.

I think it is a software problem. When I select Landscape mode from camera options camera starts fokusing again.

It was announced, camera software will get update

No it will not. Stop spreading misinformation.
http://www.hardwarezone.com.sg/review-htc-ones-camera-tested-updated - this is the source.
"HTC has clarified that the second unit which we received "has the final commercial firmware, compared to the original unit which was pre-production and had an isolated hardware issue, which resulted in differences between the two sets of photos taken with both devices." According to our understanding, all the commercial sets which will launch in April will come already updated with this firmware. As such, there will be no second camera update for the One."

my HTC ONE been shipped MARCH 15th, no updates received yet... so what version of software you talking about? 1.28 1.26 or 1.24...
I know new base will come soon, I have 1.28 the latest one
and read the update:
Updated 27/3/13: We have updated this feature twice; once on the 26th to clarify that there will be no camera firmware update in April, and secondly on the 27th with new information about the HTC One's mysterious performance at ISO 800 (and a possible firmware update in April). Both updates can be found on the Conclusion page.

Off center back camera

Hi I got new HTC ONE
I found the back camera is out off center. Please find attached picture. I would like to know if this is normal.
I see no issue in camera now, but I'm worried if there would be some light problem.

Check for blur (out of focus) on the bottom left of photos. Otherwise, normal.

Mine is the same. No issues yet

It has an image stabilizer, therefore it moves
and is never perfectly in center. Study the web, theres a lot about it, even videos where you can see it moving.
No worries

[Q] Blurry shots at night

Hey guys, I have problem with photos at night,or dark conditions. They all are blurry. I mean, I have Galaxy S4 ,S3 ,Note 2 and when is night,tap on the screen means, light on camera turn on and object at dark is focused. While HTC One cant do it. Tap on the screen at dark does nothing and photo is blurry. Is there any solution how can I do perfect photos like Galaxy series? I also tried Camera FX ,but its the same. Still cant focus with light

Maybe is user error. Simple as just not doing it right. If not we need more info than that... Like come on how can I help you when all you say is "I'm a newbz and mah camera won't focus"?
Give me rom, kernel, camera app settings and maybe someone would be nice enough to help you.

All stock, not rooted.
Lol, this is not only my problem, but every user of HTC One get this problem. Im asking for solution. Just try that. Try taking picture at night, when on One is only black screen. How can U make a photo, which is not blurry? Tapping on the screen to focus is useless, cause it cant focus.. Its weird and sad. If I could do same as on the Galaxy, tap on the screen uses light and that means it will focus on objects at night, so U have great picture. But One, which has better picture at night cause of ultrapixles, cant do that?
Enough to know whats the problem?

Stock 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 because there has been quite a few updates that increases camera performance. Maybe some pictures could help.
If you are properly focusing on something after pressing your finger on the screen it should say "AE and AF locked".

Yeah,if I tap on the screen,it says ae and af locked. But it doesnt solve the problem. Try it. U will have blurry photo too. It just cant focus at night

So, I found on the internet same issue..Everybody got this problem, I think all HTC devices, but lot of people dont know about it..There was no software update which repair this..One guy got third part app, which using light-torch ,so it can focus in dark too..But he said its bit laggy, not as HTC's camera app:-/ He also tried different ROMs, nothing works..Shame on HTC..Dont understand why they cant do it like Samsung..

me too am having the same problem. am using vipers 5.2.1 and night pictures are just bad even with the powerful dual flash on the sensation

Send your phone for repair. Pink hue is a very well know hardware defect, HTC will replace your camera module for another model.

Thnx for the reply but my htc one is out of warranty what should i do ???

I had the same issue with the camera blur. I actually sent in my phone and got a new one, but the blur stayed. It could just be that our phones were manufactured with cheaper parts, or that we were just very unlucky.
The only thing that finally fixed my camera was installing a custom rom. I installed liquidsmooth and the blur went away, which suggests to me that this is probably a software issue. Since your warranty's expired, this would be the route I'd suggest you go.
Here's a link for unlocking the bootloader: http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-unlock-the-htc-one-bootloader-xda-developer-tv/
Note: You'll need to download the sdk tools for android here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html?pkg=tools
Here's a link for rooting and installing a custom recovery: http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-root-the-htc-one-m7-and-install-recovery-xda-developer-tv/
Hope this helps.

Please i cannot take clear pictures with my htc one m7 back camera. Tried using it but its blur and i also notice my phone vibrating each time i try to take pictures.
