Camera sux after upgrade to Lolipop

[Szymon Majchrzak]

Hello. After upgrade my camera on htc its just sux... Pictures are bad, wrong colors etc. I did downgrade to 4.4 android and I solved the problem. But my girlfriend has this phone and this problem to. She does not want to downgrade becouse she does not want to lose warranty....

My engilsh is not the best, I am writting from Poland. Please, anyone can help me with this? Without downgrade of course

Your English is fine. (My Polish doesn't exist at all, so you have the advantage.)

Since it's a software change - the camera itself didn't change - try a different camera app. I like Camera FV-5 Lite because it gives you shutter or program priority and long exposure times if you need them (like for meteor showers). There are a lot of free camera apps. Try them and you'll probably find one that's better than the one that came with the phone on 4.4. (Which one is best depends on what you use the camera for. Shots of people in the street don't need fancy exposure control, but close-ups need good focus control.)

Hi. That looks like the dreaded lense coating getting scratched. Check your camera lens to see if it's clean. You might have the coating on the lens that goes bad and gets scratched. This will need to be cleaned off. There is a thread on this forum about it.

Or you can search: htc one m8 camera lens fix on YouTube.

I read your topic., but he's right. It looks like you have the coating coming off the lens. It happened to a lot of people and it's easily fixed. It has nothing to do with Lollipop or down grading the OS. Read the later posts in the link Grand Theft Audio posted for you , follow the simple instructions and your pictures will be good again.
