I have a problem with my XSP's camera having blurry,Foggy pictures. At first I thought the problem was just the app itself so I tried other camera apps like camera 360 but it still shows the same problem. I think it may be hardware related but I need your advice if I can still sort this on my own because I hate slow customer repair service.
this is what my pictures looks like now.

i tried wiping off the back camera but not to the extent that includes the removing of screws. Is that what you mean?

Just wiping the lens with some cloth or micro-thingy, nothing too complicated

Thanks for the suggestion but as I've said before, wiping doesn't work. But I noticed that the back camera has many scratches. Maybe that's the cause.

Soo, my xperia z fell in a sink with water, the flaps were closed, etc. The phone wasnt damaged and everything is working, etc. But one of the strips has turned red :l
Warranty lost if the strip is red but phone not damaged? How to get it back white? Other suggestions? Anyone had this happen to their phone?

Now that's pretty odd. Hmm, maybe its nothing. Try this,if you are running on an old firmware install the latest from the update centre,if you already are using the latest firmware try resetting it,not just the settings but with the data being wiped as well.

I said it was a software problem caused, you said "The phone wasnt damaged and everything is working, etc." or did you forget? Now that I know you got water in the phone it really is water.

Yeah saw that. You are right now he knows that his hardware is damage and not his software.
Dude I think u will lose ur warranty if the strips change colour from white to red. U have to fight with service center asking them its waterproof. Or ask them to check it because water damage can be solved before it starts to rust.

Mornin'! (at least here in PL)
Yesterday when i was in jacuzzi i decided to take some underwater pictures using my Z. Ive heared it isnt designed to be submerged, though of course SONY promotes it as it does. Ok but lets move to a problem. After first picture taken accuracy gone bad, the water was clean but pictures of even close localised things were blurred. I remember someone here on forum showed his underwater pictures and they were great actually. Mine were not worth a penny... After bathing i had swab the water all of my device and then i saw the mist on the interior site of mirror of camera. Now its already gone but had been there for few houres. Camera still works perfect after mist had gone, no problems there, however mist is an evidence of water coming somehow through. All of the indicators are white, so its not where the problem comes from. So my question is are you guys facing with such a thing after bathing, is it normal or is it as i said evidence of malfunction? Next question if i bought my Z from polish network Play does it mean warranty is ensured only by them or i can take it to SONY Center and they can fix up this issue too?

Some people are def. confused. XZ was never designed as underwater camera. Keep it safe and out of water.

I hope so, anyway Im going to take it under warranty to check whether everything is ok. And back to my question: can I take it directly to SONY Center rather than taking it to local network provider who sold me my phone?
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
Probably. Along as you have proof of purchase. But if there's nothing wrong theres nothing they are going to find. And probably charge you for wasting their time

I observed that since I update my HTC one to 4.3, the camera became grayish purplish. I have done all I can think of to get the camera to be as clear as it is supposed to be, but no solution, I need help as it have taken away the fun in taking pictures with my phone.

This is a very known hardware issue, not related to the 4.3 update. Send your phone to repair under warranty. They will replace your camera chip with an improved one.

It didn't start being blurry until I flashed the firmware but I'm not sure how long after. I have been on Bad Boyz since it was available and never had this issue.

I think this might be a problem, I remember reading on here that someone else's camera did the same thing but I can't find the post.
I guess I'll just go back to stock and take it to Sprint

It seems like this is a common issue with no other fix that I can find besides taking it to Sprint. I will post if I find any additional solutions.
Found a fix by searching Google and it really
worked, a drop of water and scrape the lens with the corner of a credit card.

That's great mine has been a little blurry gonna try it when I get home thanks
Mine got foggy too. Keep mine in a case and in my front pocket without anything else. Still got all scratched up. Read HTC has put a coating on the lenses for what ever reason.
I placed a small dab of toothpaste with an even smaller dab of water and rubbed on the lens very lightly. First time almost got it 100%, second time did it. Pulled the coating off nicely. Pictures are really clear again.
I've also read rubbing alcohol and Q-tips will do the trick.
Sweet I'm not crazy then it does have a coating on it

Well i just got my sony xperia z3 dual sim and when i checked the camera its too blurred and stuff, but when i take close pictures its sharp and clear the problem is its too blurry if you take somehow far. Is there wrong?
I think a problem is in focus. Camera doesn't have time to focus or something's wrong with a camera. When in camera app, try to tap on a screen anywhere (it's going to do manual focus).
Nothing happens if i tap, a little gray square appears but doesnt focus the object

Is camera lens cover cleaned? I think that I had a similar issue with other phone and finally was dirt on the lens that wasn't appreciate taking pictures.

I had the same problem. I send it to Sony for repair and get a new phone instead after 2 weeks, cause they couldn't repair it.
Upload pictures so we can see the problem

If you haven't unlocked your bootloader and your camera quality is still blurry send it back to Sony, they'll either clean the lens ( or replace it if you still have warranty )

If cleaning the lens doesn't solve it and you still have warranty they would probably replace the lens free of charge but that's a worst-case scenario
