Finally my phone back from repair from HTC. They change the camera module and the back plate (no idea why). The purple camera issue is now gone. And they didnt reflash the phone or reset it. So it is a hardware issue it seems for mine.

But unfortunately I am still having the facebook "Authorization problem" message still. Started since the first factory reset I did... sigh

Yesterday night I finally had a chance to test it. Under low light it "seems" to be ok. But under very dark condition (i was in my room with just street lights coming thru my window), there is still blue tint (previously purple). The blue tint pixel seems larger too... but only cover the edges, you can see the camera is struggling to keep this blue infection away.. LOL. The ISO controls however suppress the tinting issue well. Any setting below 800 kills the tint almost entirely, except for some very minor edge light leaks (can ignore). At 800 ISO blue tint starts to show and anything above, the blue tint starts to appear very obvious d. Oh and the same as previously, the hotter the device gets, the more obvious the problem.

I any case, I just accept nia. I dun wan to be out of phone for another 1 month. LOL. Looking forward to QX100

probably not ok... for various reason. please get a new phone...

but seems like someone else has redeem the code.

mine improved.. but the issue was never totally fix. i think the software/firmware for the camera is too aggressive in dark environment. they should tune it down a little...

i want to get papago from google store using the gift card but too bad short of 4.99 usd i tried to buy the google play credit but it says i cant. haihz...

anyone know where to get the google play credit from?
