Question Xiaomi 12X LED Flash - Xiaomi 12X

Hi, I received my new Xiaomi 12X today and noticed that the LED flash on the camera works only upper side as you can see in the photo. It is normal? Shouldn't both LEDs be lit? Maybe someone can check on its 12X does it work in the same way?

Almost became blind while checking it here, but mine seems to use both of them, the lower one seems weaker. Tested with the camera flash and with flashlight on too.
As far as I know, most dual flash setups comes with a white led and a yellow one, so you can get a smoother white balance in your pics. Maybe the camera AI choose how much of each one is used depending on the light of the environment you're taking pictures, just a guess.

When looking with the naked eye, it is difficult to distinguish whether both LEDs are lit. Try cover the flash with a piece of paper and try again. Or zoom in with other phone camera.

Yup, seems that only the top one is on, like yours! (my old Redmi struggled a little to take this picture)

I found a Xiaomi 12 disassembly video and there is only one LED! There is a some kind of sensor next to it.
So everything works as it should, thanks for your time

Rooted camera quality

Does anyone else notice a degradation in picture quality after rooting and putting custom roms on? I remember when I was unroot when I first bought my evo and I thought the camera was great, but lately it's completely washed out by light and can't take a picture without blurring even in good daylight.
I've tried it on 3 different roms, flipz, damage, and nonsense. All fairly similar with being washed out.
Any reasoning or is this known? It's starting to bug me.
I've been on Fresh's ROMs for about a week now, first 0.3 and now 0.5. I haven't noticed a change, but then again I don't use the camera much. I never had really high expectations for the camera anyway since it's just a phone, but I have to admit that it's much better than I expected.

Hey, I have a Hero. I noticed the same thing until I cleaned the camera lens with alcohol and a q-tip. Picture quality improved greatly.

I have a feeling my camera lens shield may be throwing it off.I'm going to clean and remove it to see if that helps

Turns out it was the shield for the camera lens that turned it to crap. I took it off and wiped the lens and its 20x better.
i dont know why they got resized so small. you might not be able to tell at this size but the top one is much clearer

Green spot on camera

Anyone have a green spot on their pictures when they take a pic on a white background? My nexus one had a similar issue but it was a red spot (I think my HD2 had it too) here's a sample

dirt spot
get some windex and clean it up with a nice dustless wipe
Yes I do but not so obvious on my S2 and its yellow , its a defect present on many phones, google for galaxy s 4g tmobile yellow spot. Supposedly Samsung was going to fix it in gingerbread update but they never did!!!
I think cleaning it solved it. I'm not sure because it doesn't always happen (depends what the cameras looking at). thank you
Now I see a SLIGHT pinkish tint. It doesn't bother since I've dealt with it before and its not that big of a deal but that's my experience.

Count me in. I have the same problem. Only on the 8meg cam. The 2 meg is fine. I wonder if different ROM's may effect this.
I have the same issue,it's a pink spot though and turns green at night !
Definitely a camera issue, I clean the lense a it still there. Sometimes pink, sometimes green depend on the light condition.

Wow I didnt know about that. Not good and thanks for the heads up
the whole GALAXY to NOTE about...counting down from 10 to 1.
I had the same problem with my Nexus 4. I would take shots and wonder why the picture always came out yellowish with flash. Turns out my finger was too close to the LED lol

I walked around my house all morning, taking flash pictures in the dark with and without the case and never saw any difference between the two images. When I can, I'll post some of my comparisons, but I'm starting to think my house might just be yellow...

Desire 530 - Remove over-sharpening and over-saturation?

Has anybody else noticed that the screen on the Desire 530 is massively over-sharpened and over-saturated? It bugged me the first time I used it, and reminds me of the over-sharpening on the LG G3.
It almost seems like a filter has been applied to the entire screen. Oddly, the over-sharpening/saturation is turned off whenever the camera is used, or whenever a video is played, and it remains this way until the screen goes to sleep, the over-sharpening/saturation then returns when waking the phone up. The screen looks great without the over-sharpening/saturation IMO, small text is much easier to read because there are no sharpening artefacts and it's generally much easier on my eyes.
Does anybody know how to disable it permanently? It's not a massive deal, as I can always start up the camera to get rid of the ugliness, but I'd like the screen to look natural all the time.
I've tried to capture it in the photos below, the normal screen (over-sharpened/saturated) is on the left, and the more natural screen (after using the camera) is on the right.

Question Camera switch to super macro bug ?

Hi guys,
I'm not sure if I'm the only one having this problem, but when my phone switches from the main photo sensor to the super macro, there is a clear difference. There is a shift and the colors are not the same.
Here a video to show the problem :/

Same moment, same distance but two photos very different :
the first one is the main camera, and second one is the super macro. The switch is not natural

It's a different camera on the phone isn't it? The switch would be expected. The phone isn't doing everything with just one camera/lens.

This is correct. Super macro mode uses the ultra wide camera. Every 'zoom level' in super macro mode just crops image from the ultra wide camera.
The difference would not be too noticeable? Especially in terms of colors and angle!
