IPhone pink/green camera issue

So I noticed that when I'm indoors and I take photos of my white walls in low lighting, I get the pink in the middle, green on the outside issue that's been posted in blogs and message boards. When you're out in ample lighting, the pictures turn out fine.
I've had my iPhone for over a month now. I've read some people post their experiences about getting their phone swapped. I'd like to get mine swapped if possible for a better one.
Can anybody post their experiences with this issue and whether they were able to get a replacement at the Apple Store beyond the 14 days?

Yes you can. I had an issue. Apple replaced my phone with a new phone. The new phone solved the issue. They were fast and pretty nice about it. I am an happy Apple costumer.

  • IPhone 4; ios5 camera issues - anyone's camera freeze, goes dark, or shows random pink lines?

    I've an iPhone 4, running ios5, and just this morning I noticed that when taking a picture the camera is freezing (unresponsive) as well as getting pink lines across the photo I'm trying to take before it crashes. Anyone else getting the same thing? I've tried turning HDR off, so as to try & eliminate that as a possibility,but it still happens. Even after rebooting iPhone. (Screenshot attached)

    WOW that could produce some interesting images!
    Try a hardware reset on your iPhone (hold sleep and home buttons down together until the iPhone reboots). If this doesn't help, you will have to try a restore of your iPhone.
    If neither helps solve the problem, you'll have to make an appointment with an Apple Genius at your local Apple Store, so they can have a look and see what the problem is.

  • IPhone 4s Strange Camera issue

    I haven't been using my iPhone 4s long, and only just recently tried taking photographs. Firstly, i noticed when i take photographs in poor lit areas the flash would white wash the picture on 60% of the photo. I do not have any kind of case or screen protector.
    secondly, when i observed the camera lens to check for finger prints or scratches i noticed that something inside the glass is slightly covering the lens.
    I looked on Google for pictures of the rear of the iPhone 4s and i came to the conclusion that my camera has something inside that shouldn't be there.
    When i was trying to book a service or return throught apple website, they dont acknowledge anything at all to do with the camera, and the only thing it says in the technical support is to restore iphones software.
    Anyone had anything like this?
    ill try and get a picture up for you to see,  but basically if you look at the camera glass there is something i can only describe as a "half moon" covering the actual lese.

    Its alright now, I opened the back and this is what i found.(picture below) Somekind of protection around the camera wasnt stuck on correctly at production which caused the white wash and the "half moon" over the lens.

  • IPhone 5s rear camera issues

    Okay, so I just got my new 5s last weekend and the rear camera already does not work. Upon opening the camera app, the screen goes black and the app closes. When trying to get to the camera by sliding up from the lock screen, the apple logo appears and the phone restarts by itself. Multiple hard restarts and restores have been unsuccessful. The flashlight is also not available for use. Any Advice?

    If you've tried a system restore and such basic troubleshooting, why not just take it back to the store for more troubleshooting or a replacement? It's obviously not working properly. Like you said, you got it last weekend.

  • I am frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues, while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode

    Hi,
    Greetings !!!
    I would like to know what is the root cause of Iphone camera hanging ?
    I am very frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues like while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode with full of pink & black line.
    I noticed while camera app turns ON the phone going to hand.
    I went to apple services server with this problem & they said they didn't see any errors.
    Kindly response with my request, and provide me the solution.
    Thannks & regards,
    -Vamsi

    That often happens with cameras when you take pictures of a computer screen. LCD screens "flicker" and the camera will often catch the flicker.

  • Avid codec pink/green issue in After Effects CC

    Hi there.
    We're in the process of upgrading to CC at work and are running an Avid based edit to graphics pipeline. Currently our editors export to Avid mpeg 50 which works without any issues in AE CS5 - when we bring the same footage into AE CC it comes in garbled, split into pink/green colours, squashed to half screen and in the wrong aspect ratio. It's like the metadata in the file is not being interpreted correctly and telling AE to do weird things.
    I am still in the process of testing at my end to find out if other avid based codecs are affected.
    I've attached a screenshot to demonstrate what is happening:
    We're running OSX 10.8.3 on Mac Pros.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as its preventing us from rolling out CC at the moment.
    Thanks,
    Ben

    Thanks for the info Rick, Do you have any details of what version of the Avid codec is required? I'm also wondering if the codec would need to be upgraded on the Avid export end as well as the After Effects machine end.

  • IPhone 5 camera issue.... NEED HELP please

    I just got this iPhone 5 camera issue. I was taking pictures (around 20 pictures), suddenly the camera only focused downward (to the ground). Even I raised the iphone higher and focused to the head of person that stood in front of me, but the camera still took the pictures of that person's hip and legs. Every pictures that I took were focusing downward.
    I tried it today the second time. After I continously took 40 pictures, this problem started again.
    Should I get a replacement? IS it a ios6 or phone problem?
    Actually, after I restarted the phone, this problem was gone. But I just want to make sure that this problem will not come again after 1year warrantee.

    when your r on your camera app, press and hold the sleep/wake button and after 4 secs you'll see the red slide of power off option. without sliding that, just press and hold the home button until the camera app quits. This will reset the app.
    If this doesnt work, go to your comp and delete the softwareupdate.ipsw file from itunes media folder (if you've previoulsy updated or restored) and do a restore. this will download a new update file from apple server that will be error free.

    Have not seen this issue, but keep an eye on it so to not miss the warranty period. If it does it again, take it to apple and get a replacement.

  • I've read a lot of comments/suggestions about camera issues that it turns black when opening the phone camera but nothing is worked for me. I'm so frustrate on my iPhone 5s im using it like for a month, I thought its more better than Samsung but I failed.

    I would have had the phone looked at long before a month of problems.
    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't help Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. You phone is under warranty and someone at an Apple store can help you.

  • IOS 8 Camera Issues on iPhone 5s

    I updated my iPhone 5s today (9/18) and now when I go to take a picture, the top bar in the camera is upside down (facing the top of the phone). When I rotate the phone 180 degrees, it goes to how it should be. I didn't have this issue before the update. I even updated my 5th gen iPod touch last night and I'm not having this issue. This is annoying and inconvenient. I've restarted my phone and that didn't help. I would like to not have to restore my phone if possible.
    iPhone in upright position:
    iPhone upside down:

    Same issue.   iPhone 5s, verizon.  Tried rotating and it won't work.  Pictures are taken upside down and appear in "recently added" photos upside down.

  • Itunes still pink & green in 32bit colour

    Hi,
    I recently installed a new graphics card whch seems to work great but it has affected Itunes. I am getting the pink / green affect on videos, some album covers and the store screen. I have made sure I am running 32bit colour but it doesnt seem to work still.
    The problem doesnt happen in anyhting else, even quicktime plays videos fine.
    I have updated all drivers, tried a reinstall and everything else I can think of.
    Any one out there with any ideas?
    Thanks

    well... it appears that it's not a monitor issue... these are the steps i've taken so far, and they all result in either the machine booting up with the colored lines, or a clean looking bootup, but as soon as i open a menu, or move a window, the artifacts appearl.
    1 - performed a clean install of OSX on the machine with all of the new updates.
    2 - reseated all of the paired RAM chips (both apple and non-apple) into the slots they originally occupied, and tried moving them around.
    3 - booted the machine with the original 512MB that the G5 came with
    4 - reseated the video card, as well as the monitor cord into the ADC port.
    5 - reset the NVRAM and PMU
    6 - plugged in a non-apple monitor into the DVI port on the ATI video card (still gives me pink lines).
    I just checked my warranty status online, and my 3-year applecare just expired a month ago (6 January). Would it be worth it to haul the machine over to the nearest Apple store, or should I first try buying a replacement video card on my own for this machine? (My CinemaDisplay is one of the ADC models).
    Grr.... 3 years without a problem, and now this.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Windows XP can no longer "see" my iPhone as a camera/imaging device

    can't sync photos from iPhone to computer; Windows XP doesn't even see it as a camera or imaging device. Weird, since iTunes is able to synch music/contacts.
    No matter how I check, Windows XP can't find the device:
    control panel --> scanners and cameras - nothing!
    My Computer --> devices with removable storage - no iPhone
    Computer Management--> Device Manager - no iPhone or scanner/camera

    UPDATE - I think I've resolved my problem and that it is related to having my iPhone "passcode locked".
    1. I connected it and unlocked the iPhone, synced music, but had the problems I noted in my original discussion post
    2. I disconnected the iPhone, closed iTunes, reopened iTunes and reconnected the iPhone (making sure it was NOT passcode locked before connecting it) -- everything works fine.
    3. now I can get back to my original issue, was to figure out how to get only my NEW iPhone captured photos to synch, or at least have them date ordered. But that's a subject for another post.
    BOTTOM LINE - passcode lock may be the key for those who are having problems with their PC not able to see the iPhone as a camera/imaging device

  • Doe anyone have a rough cost of replacing a iPhone 4 back camera / cleaning

    Hi,
    I have an Apple Store nearby but its a bit more than 'around the corner', so I thought it was worht asking here.
    When I take photos with my iPhone's rear camera, the photos turn out with not much clarity and when the flash is on they turn out bleached. I think the issue might be with some dust being under the lens or the lens being too scratched to produce good photos.
    Does anyone know how much it would cost me to take it in to an Apple Store?
    How much would it cost in total?
    Thanks so much!

  • Why is it when using my iPhone 4s front camera, the screen sometimes turn black or have blue stripes on it? What's wrong with it and what should I do?

    When using my iPhone 4s front camera, the screen sometimes become black or have blue stripes on it! Is this a hardware or software problem? Can this issue be covered by my warranty? I bought it inmid-december last year, and this problem came at around Late January. It's a rare case, only came about 5 times, but this really concerns me. What's wrong with it? Thank you so much for your concern.

    thank you for your reply
    I brought it to the store and they agreed to give me an exchange. thank goodness!
    I have a new question: I've now transferred my back up datas to my new iphone. They wanted me to register, so I registered (as my old apple ID) and then they asked if I want to restore backup, I did that too. after the restore back up process, the only things that aren't there were my music and apps! what should I do to get them into my new iPhone?

  • IPhone 4s back camera not working even after buying new iphone 4s

    Back when the ios 6 updates were coming out  in 2013 my iPhone 4 back camera stopped working, after trying way too many ways to reset the phone  and  finding others with this same issue I decided to start over I bought a new iPhone 4s so this one was better and 32gb instead of 16gb and it was 9 days later the back camera stopped working on my NEW iphone and still doesn't work to this day? What on earth should I do? How can this be fixed? I've tried hard reset, backing up the new phone, all the tricks I've tried on both phones do not work!!

    A new phone has a warranty.  So take it to an Apple store.  If they can't fix it, they will replace the phone.  Or do you mean: it stopped working after 9 days, but then you waited until the warranty ran out and then ask us?
