When using camera screen turns pink

[BitchImFatJesus]

Last night when I was trying to take a picture, my screen turned really pink and it never changed. Does anyone know what this is? My camera is fine now, but I would like to know what that is.

Did it stay pink even when you went to the home screen?

No, but if I knew how to post pictures I'd show you how it looks

Oops I didn't see the posted via android central app. You can't post pictures using the new ac app but you can using tapatalk or the old ac app.

I have one question, are you using the stock camera app?

Are you rooted?

And also, did you take a picture in bright sunlight? That may have caused it if you did. And then did it just go away randomly or did you take a picture in a dark room and it went away?

That picture I was in my brothers room and it didn't go away no matter how hard I tried. I had to exit the camera to get rid of it

Sorry, but I don't know what could have caused it then.

It happens when I try to take pictures in a dark room or setting

Did you reset to default? Open Camera, tap the 3 vertical dots, then scroll all the way to bottom, and hit the reset to default. Might be worth a try. Also: Do you have a colored case? The flash may be reflecting the colored case.

 

[BitchImFatJesus]

I haven't tried that and no I don't have a colored case. I have a Black Poetic Flipbook

Ajay, this is a really old and known problem with the HTC One. The pink comes from a defective camera sensor. The only way to truly fix it it to send your phone back to HTC and they will repair it. They will usually repair it free of charge, even paying for the shipping sometimes. Try calling/emailing the repair center.
