I think I know now why the pictures arent looking good.
http://www.howardforums.com/showpost.php?p...&postcount=2785http://www.howardforums.com/showpost.php?p...&postcount=2827I was reading these post by forumer slardar, and he was commenting how his 904sh has the same purple fringing issues. In that post he mentions that he checked the exif data and the fw number says 1.04R. I looked at my exif data, and mine also says 1.04R, my first 904sh had the fw 1.11R, that one which to me looked to be a refurbished model with a case change, (the phone was litterally brand new when I got it with tiny hairline scratches on chrome and missing the back screw cover. But a 9.5/10 condition for the rest of the phone, and it was imported directly from japan using third party service. The pictures I remember taking did not have the purple fringing issue as bad as my current one. THough my 904sh I currently had was used by a japanese guy, and not a parallel import model as I have all the identification of the guy and reciept in the box. Bought brand new in May 2006, probably never got a software update.
I also found some pictures slardar posted, he had the issues I am having with my 904sh.

I have a feeling if you take a picture with it, it may not have as bad of a purple fringing issue. As that probably was the last fw revision on the 904sh. Maybe can you get an exif data read on a picture? and check the "software" part of it? And if you still have your other color 904sh, check those too.
Though occasionally I can get a decent picture like this...
