HTC ONE M8 Camera Problem
A few days ago I upgraded to Lollipop 5.0.1. Since then the main camera is fuzzy and is buzzing. I called HTC and they had me run through a few potential fixes including wiping cache partition and rebooting. Didn't work. I've read on another forum the problem probably is the camera sensor motor. I did not tell HTC that I thought it was the sensor motor. They offered to have me send the phone in and they would diagnose and email with an estimate and would take ten or more days. I have two questions: 1) Has anyone sent in their phone and had this procedure done to fix this and what was the cost (for a phone not under warranty), and 2) if I ignore the problem and use the selfie feature for pictures which works properly, is there a chance that whatever is wrong could result in other problems with the phone in the future? Thanks for your responses.
