I just received a brand new replacement HTC One to replace my old one which developed the purple camera issue. The first thing I did was test the camera on the new phone. The camera on my new HTC One has an image of a mountain range permanently burned into it. The only way I can describe the problem is to compare it to an old CRT or Projection Television where a ghost image is burned into it because the image was left on the screen for an extended period of time. Has anyone else seen or heard of this problem occurring on a cellphone camera?
