Did you wipe your lens? It looks dirty.

How much is it? The last time I got 4 from eCube JB at RM108 each. 2 years ago.

And the SD card adapter is red rather than black.

Hi, 4 all of you who asked about pictures of my camera before & after Android 4.3.

Android 4.2.2:
1st sample - Android 4.2.2
2nd sample - Android 4.2.2

Android 4.3
1st sample - Android 4.3
2nd sample - Android 4.3

______________________

Same settings: 20.7 MPX, Manual, similar lights, similar place.

With Android 4.2.2 there isn't noise in dark zones and even normal zones, with Android 4.3 completely noisy.

I have to add that I didn't update modifying nothing in the mobil phone, just updated with the SONY message in my mobile.

****About someone who said about my problem is the first one that he read, I have searched info on Internet and I have found at least 3-4 comments with the same problem, but only short comments in blogs or similar.

****Indeed, I already restart phone from factory settings and keep the same problem. My father-in-law who already have the same phone, did NOT update to Android 4.3 and the photos are perfect, doesn't matter if you make photos with daylight, at night, inside, outside... but with my updated phone... 

Some random photos

Bro the first shot. Where is it? =D

somewhere rawang.. my uncle new house

from the exif

the sample 1

android 4.2.2 using ISO 400
Android 4.3 using ISO 800

Sample 2 (the lighting look totally dif)

Android 4.2.2 using ISO 1000
Android 4.3 using ISO 640

Hence, that explain why sample 1 android 4.3 more noise.

Man, as I told you, it doesnt matter how you put the ISO or the settings, all the pictures more noisy than before 

I'm not crying without reason, my girlfriend has studied photography and she teached me. We are making same pictures with the same mobile, one with 4.2.2 and another with 4.3, and the results are so different.

I will try to upload more examples tomorrow. 

I don't suppose it's in Batu Arang? hehe. Looking to buy a house. The house in picture looked awfully similar to the one I'm closing in Shah Alam.

what camera app you use? the contrast level seems cacat for 4.3

mm I am not sure since I went once only :/ I only recall it is very near the Country Homes
too bad I don't have previous 4.2 photos to do comparison. I did push to ISO 1600 once and shoot at low light during new year and using Android 4.3 already.


Or I suspect he adjusted the exposure comp before. The photos seem brighter and doest expose properly.

Thanks ckchan

Also, another question - how does the OTA update work? I notice some users are already getting the notification to update, but I'm not getting it yet.

You check his EXIF, exposure bias is at 0.
The filename seems odd though.

for OTA, just go to the apps Update Centre and click refresh. if there is any OTA update, it will be shown here.

As for the availability of OTA update, i'm not sure why some got it early while others got it late.

yours are ori malaysia set right?

at 2.2Ghz speed sure really hot... it's time to get fan installed inside... 
Maybe can suggest at Sony Mobile FB page....
16GB class 4 good enough for me as I only save my own data.
