You can always try the ported GCam.
Everytime I have to take a picture I must clean the lens honestly.... Even if I put it in my pocket for no more than 5 minutes I have to clean the camera lens that I'm about to use, I have no idea why they get so smudgy easily

So when I was taking a picture with my front facing camera on my one it looks to be in some kind of fun house mirror mode... I was looking for a setting with it but I can not seem to find it... Basically when taking a portrait with the front camera if i move my face up or down it has a bug eye/ fun house mirror effect... Am i missing this setting??
Nope mine is also the same, if I'm taking a picture with the front camera it comes out long or strectched out usually at the top. I think it's due to the wide angle lense in the front facing camera.

Thats pretty terrible....
It seems the camera won't focus properly. The close up shots and front camera shots are high quality but the far shots its all blurry. Its not even that far lets say around 4-5 feet and the picture is blurry. Anyone know what might be causing this?
also if i take long shots in selfie mode the pics come out perfect, its just pics from the back camera that r still coming out blurry when taking long shots, for close ups the back camera works perfect but if i move it back say 3 feet its blurry again
Can you post a sample pic? & You did removed the clear protective film from the back camera?
I am having the same issue. Protective film is off.
The camera will not hold focus on anything further away than a few feet. It seems to be an issue POST update on T-Mobile.
Phone will not focus
My Note 4 takes very bad pictures. It will hold focus for less then a second and when I take the picture its not focussed,
i purchased the phone brand new off ebay last week, how would i go about on exchanging the phone for another note 4? or would a future update fix this issue? everything else works fine its just the long shots from the back camera
my phone has the same issue, it's not just focus for the pictures, but also for video recording. if i take it little bit far away, it comes out blurry. it actually thinks that little blurry focus is the right focus.

Exchange it. Only a handful of us had that issue. My 2nd n4 focuses fine.
Man, everything works perfect expected the focus on the camera. I already passed 14 days to exchange it. I hope the software update is going to fix it.

Lollipop made pictures blurry Nexus4
Camera was working ok with versions 4. x and pictures were nice and crisp.
Once upgraded to Lollipop pictures are blurry now, faces are washed off.
Happened on both mine and my wife's phone.

I had the same issue as well camera was fine than all of a sudden I noticed it taking blurry pictures, but closeups were fine. Wasn't sure if it was do to being in high altitude area or what. Tmobile swapped it out and the new one works fine now.

I'm having the same issue with my note 4. Takes blurry pics from distance, but close ups are sharp. I don't know how I did it, but if I hit the phone a couple times it focuses. Strange. But it works.
Not having issues. Pictures are picture-perfect.
Fortunately, I haven't had any focus problems with the cameras on T-Mobile's Note 4 as others have reported.
However, the Front Facing Camera is quite depressing in which too much movement causes the pictures to come out washed out and blurry. Taking pictures on the front facing camera requires a lot of steadiness; whereas when I shoot in video mode using the Front Facing camera, the live video playback on the display turns out smooth. Do you all experience the same phenomenon with the front facing camera? I know the front facing camera doesn't feature OIS, but still wondering what going here as my previous Note did not have camera issues.

you are not alone. i've found that in normal selfie mode, the viewfinder feels very laggy and the movement is both choppy and easily blurred.
to me this looks like a huge bug. if i change to wide angle selfie mode the movement is normal and smooth. so for me it seems like this problem / issue
is isolated within the normal selfie mode. i haven't tested out any different modes, but this is what i've learned thus far. very annoying to be quite honest.
surprised there's so few mentioning it. at least i kind of feel bothered by this sort of thing
No such issues. Both front and back are focusing quick.
Not having trouble with having to keep my hands steady for selfies. My hands shake from time to time and I let other people take selfies with my phone. Everybody was happy with their pics and putting them on Facebook. Even my dad who is a professional photographer.
I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better camera phone til the s6 or note 5.
They could always make it better of course. Always a good thing.
What roms are you guys using?
You're beautiful and everyone knows it. That's why you take selfies. Rate this thread to express how the front-facing camera of the HTC 10 performs. A higher rating indicates that the front camera produces fantastic results consistently.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Pretty bad
I think it is excellent, sharp and clear!

yes its bad, coming from a note 5.
its really good from m9. And love how there is a "flash" for selfies on the 10.
I think is great too, coming from a Galaxy S4
I have the m9 and my sister has the 10 and I have to say the m9 is way better in low light and looks better picture wise but in video the 10 is better
not use the front camera
Does the front camera autofocus?

I have noticed this also. This happens because you cant touch to focus in snapchat. The stock camera app can take amazing from facing photos when you can touch to focus. The auto focus doesnt kick in like it probably should =/
I think most of phone now including HTC 10, still have focusing issue in front camera.. hope they fix that
not bad, but not LG, Sony or Samsung quality.
I have the problem that the front facing cam only delivers sharp pictures while holding the cam no too far away. This even happens with the HTC camera app. When I hold my arm fully streched, the image is never 100% sharp. The view finder shows a sharp picture but the result is blurred. I really start to worry that my front facing lens might be broken. But if this was correct, the preview was also blurred, right?

This was officially fixed with 1.90.x.
Was fiddling with devcheck, and stumbled onto the tabs for front camera. It seems to me that the front camera is RAW capable. Can anybody confirm or deny this claim? If so, I would love some app recommendations that can squeeze out every ounce of RAW goodness from it. Thank you all in advance!

It was a Snapchat error. We have got it fixed finally by rating it bad on the Play Store and mentioning our problems while writing the reviews xD. Its wonderful now.
OR
Maybe the latest software update had to do something with that because Snapchat sucked big time for me, both front and back camera video and picture.
Hello yeah
I come from the m7 and I'm delighted of course by the quality.
I have a comparison had an s5 and s7 edge in comparison and grade videos made from a clear winner.
My favorite is, although I am also a fan of the s7, the m10.
Unfortunately, I was disappointed somewhat in poorer light conditions due to my high expectations.
Overall I am but more than happy with the cam
Absolutely terrible. So bad, in fact that its' one of the things that I'm jumping ship to another brand next time. They advertised this as having OIS and being special, but the focus range is whack because they went with a Samsung sensor that was having issues and the post processing is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too aggressive. I find mid range and high end phones from like 3 years ago are better looking because they are actually in focus and don't look strangely digital.
Hi, I just updated my note 9 to android 9 and my camera is not too good. Lights are very blurry. Does anyone else had the some problem? Have a look on annex, I attached some pictures
Have you tried cleaning the camera lens?
Yes, I have. I got that issue long time ago when I was on sunny holidays and tel was very hot. Next day all was good. Now phone is normal temp and this show up after update to android 9
You know, that really looks like a dirty/greasy or scratched-up lens to me. It's either that, or it could be moisture under the glass. Double-check with a magnifying glass if you need to.
Do also contact Samsung support about this. I'm sure they have some thoughts.

Definitely not normal. I agree it looks like a dirty or scratched up camera lens. Do you happen to have one of those tempered glass protectors on the lens?
You can always test it by downloading a third party camera app like GCam or Open Camera. If they produce blurry pics, then you have some sort of hardware issue.
