This is a hardware problem, the only way to properly fix it is to get a new phone. When the lens is completely covered, you're supposed to see just black.
I have the same problem only after 4.2 update as i look back to my other night scene photos before the update, everything is fine even at ISO 1250 still no purple tintng. After the update it appear all over the place even in ISO 400. I hope HTC can come up with an update to solve the camera issue. This is bad for HTC.
get your piece replaced within 14 days of purchase. or else you'll have to send your phone to service center.
I had the exact same problem with my HTC ONE. i tolerated it for 2 months then cud'nt take it anymore. Took it to service center and told them that i want my camera sensor replaced. Got my phone 7 days later with perfectly functioning camera!!

May I know how's your device now? Does the purple tint show again after a period of time?
Got a replacement, however, using for a while, the same problem happens again! It's like an endless recycle.

More specifically, the 4.3 update attempts to fix it, does change it a bit, but does not completely fix the problem. I updated, it now goes black if I put it on a table but there is still noise in low light shots. I hear htc may be working on another OTA but this one may work better for some than others depending on how bad the issue was.
It is definitely a hardware issue, but it should be more addressable than this by software because it's just a matter of "ignoring" the noise. I have a camera at work that does exactly that when it has the same red noise issue.

only problem is that its hard for software to distinguish what is noise and whats not

Never experienced it before on HTC One nor now on Butterfly S. Get it. You will have new found freedom. No more constant charging, beautiful 5 inch screen and very fast and smooth. No regrets at all...miss the tin can feel though.

I know, I saw it too. But I basically upgraded because I couldn't stand the battery life. I nearly fell out the chair when I saw 3200 mAh battery.
Send warranty for camera replacement
U should send ur phone for warranty. The camera is already spoiled and it need to be replaced. I replaced my and there is no more purple tint.
U can send your phone back to HTC in warranty
And your phone will be refurbished

for warranty, you have to check with retailer himself, & your problem is hardware related, so maybe rooting might not matter, but it is advised to unroot it before taking it back to Service Center....

good for you, mine is from UK itself, Glamour Red edition,but doesn't have any international warranty, so they won't repair mine..
Do they repair them or do they swap them for reconditioned ones?

Has anyone found a fix or the root cause of the purple image tint on the camera? I bought a new camera and it is worse then the original? Does the problem actually have to do with the camera or is something else?
Thanks

Before your camera quality went down hill did you do any upgrades ???
I didn't do any upgrades. I noticed that over time the pictures starting getting out of focus then the purple tint started.

This has been covered many many times.
Software changes can help to mask the problem.
But the real problem is a faulty sensor, which is why HTC covers this under warranty and have openly admitted to the issue.
They have to replace the sensor for a better one, to truly fix the issue.
Heat is what makes it show up the most, but its truly a hardware flaw and the only "real" solution is to have it repaired.
Im surprised to see anyone still asking this...as its been covered all over this site and the web.
I figured that was the case from what I read. HTC will not fix my phone for free because I have taken the phone apart and unlocked the bootloader. Is there any place for me to buy the upgraded camera at? I got 2 cameras off ebay and they were both worse thank the one that was in my phone.
