Here are some pictures taken with my K750i->W800i with MXE-60 flash... Why is it the pictures are greenish and dark? Can someone help me? The flash was forced flash and litted when i took those pictures...
This is what i should expect from my pictures...

you said you have flash your K750 to w800..

Apart from those pics that were out of focus or blurred by motion, it seems like the flash is not powerful enough to light up the entire area that you are trying to photograph. Many times, both with my K800 and with my digital Canon camera, I get better exposed pictures with the flash turned off, since the range and power of the flash is not big enough, and the camera sensor is very sensitive and easily adapts to lower lights. The color balance (greenish picture in your case) can be funny with poor light however, but that is possible to adjust with photoshop or a similar program afterwards.

I have a modded camera driver by me... FORCE FLASH, Adjusted the SHARPNESS, speed up the AUTOFOCUS, COMPRESSION settings... The flash is powerful enough within 4 meters... The shots taken are at night... I've managed to take a picture that is good... The only problem is the pictures are greenish and dark... The last picture is ok to me, it's not that good because the flash was blocked by some carton.. See the upper left part.. So the other areas are not litted enough... So the problem is sometimes the pictures taken with the flash are somewhat greenish and dark...

Try adjusting the white balance after all. It may help a little.

I've already tried that... It doesn't solve the problem... If I've taken the pic again but this time with no MXE-60, it has no problem... So the problem lies with the MXE-60... It flashes but it's like the flash is not that strong to lit the whole place... But the flash is really strong... up to 4m... Maybe it has a synchronizing problem between the phone's camera and the mxe-60 flash... Anybody have the same problem i'm encountering?

Green color problem - ty to ser white balance to fluorescent ( it helps for me in kiromak 21.91 driver but i dont have flash - only led

Use the driver, optimized for MXE. In your case, MXE and shutter is not sinchronouse, so you get a picture after or before flash fired.

I agree with SPU, I have a MXE-60 and with some modded drivers the sync between the flash and the camera is wrong and the flash doesn't light the picture enve though it flashes. The green tint may be the very last bits of light from the flash meaning the timing could be off be 1/1000's of a second
I recommend either the stock driver or SPU's 1.3 beta 3 with is what I use

@jason - I see that it's the mxe-60 that I sold you some weeks back mate . . . well, we've already discussed the problem here thru - PM I guess.
When I am taking images using the xenon flash (to get BEST results) . . . I turn-off the lights where the object is placed (say, living room et al) . . . of course, it should be night time. I notice that images are not that SHARP if the sensor detects presence of even small amount of LIGHT
Don't ya worry dude (when it's totally DIM) when taking images, because when you press the shutter on your K750 (half-pressed) the built-in LIGHT on the K750 will LIT (so you will still be guided when shooting the object) prior to the xenon's . . . flash 
!

@ Jojo - Almost all the time I take pictures with the MXE-60, I get good results... But the problem with me is that I always look for errors... The blockage of the flash solve some of it... Now, the last problem is what the above pictures describe... That's why I love modding...
@ SPU - I've used the stock driver 5.3 from Sony... I only adjusted the COMPRESSION VALUE from 04 to 05, put in FAST and FULL RANGE focus, FORCE FLASH ( seq_e from 04 to 03 ) and VR modes NORMAL 44 NIGHT 1E. Maybe the NIGHT mode didn't synchronize with the MXE-60 flash... Can you give me a camera driver optimized for my MXE-60 flash? That I would really appreciate it...

@mark - Try to be contented with GOOD results from hereon . . .
Good Luck !
Posted by MarkJason
@ Jojo - I can't... That's how I was born...
I'm a bit stubborn with these sort of stuffs... or maybe I want the problem to be solved coz my lola's bday is coming up and maybe there will be a party at our place... the pictures above... I want to show off my photo skills naahhh... May K750i with your MXE-60 flash... I think they will be amazed... coz they are not into gadgets and seeing my phone+flash combo will make them go WAO! hehehe!

@jason - Good Luck ! But if there are special occasions in the house, say, birthdays or reunions . . I always rely on - digicams
I know you can make those shots good dude !

@ SPU - I've tested your driver and here are the results... Hope you could fix this...

What you can say about original unmodified SE driver? Is there the same problem?
Posted by MarkJason
@ SPU - I maybe... solved my own problem... I've used 4.5 original driver for R1BC002 firmware... Coz my K750i was flashed with W800i firmware... And the greenish / dark are somewhat gone... If the background is kinda greenish i just adjust the EV... But still it's not perfect... But it's almost ok... Thanks for the help and time... I really appreciate it...
