no im not suggesting it's a hardware defect. juz software
u cannot compare with orangbulu's photos. the best way is to get another iphone 4 n take photos at the exact same conditions, same place, same time. emphasis on EXACT.
orangbulu blueish tint for flash is actually normal, even for DSLRs

it works like this. the flash colour output is white. if u take a photo in a very orange background, the camera will attempt to adjust the white balance to be a little bit cooler (more blueish to counter the orange). thus the orange background will look more natural, but the white flash will be blueish. that's why some photographers have coloured filters to change the flash output colour to better match the lighting. tricky right?
example, taken with a canon 350D SLR with built-in flash:
that photo is taken in a restaurant where the lights are all orange. it doesnt look orange in this photo because the camera tweaked the white balance, but the white flash became blue. an orange filter for the flash would fix this
it also goes the other way around. take a photo with flash in a blueish background, the camera will attempt to make it hotter (more orange to counter the blue) so that the blueish part looks more natural. but the white flash becomes an orange tint.
again, this doesnt happen every single time as modern cameras are pretty smart controlling the white balance. it just misjudges from time to time. my lumix LX3 had really bad white balance control before, but a simple firmware update solved the problem
