the shots taken are not the quality of K850 not even with stock driver. i think there is something wrong with the light sensor calculation. take a tooth pick and gently poke into the hole of the light sensor to clear any residue or dirt that may be hardened

Yeah clean the light sensor. Things might get right by that.

Ok, I will try cleaning the light sensor! *Crossing my fingers*


Edit: Cleaning the light sensor did not improve anything. Did not help at all. I'm doing a master reset now.

Edit: The master reset did not work. Nor did reinstalling the latest firmware. So the camera is officially damaged...?

ring up and ask for replacement

i just saw its a used one, the person probably broke the camera or got a faulty one,
does it still take hazy pics like that in a warm place? like indoors

if that was the case, then it is something wrong with the camera module...

To all of you suggesting I should contact SE. The warranty is gone. The phone is 3 years old, so that won't help much I'm sure I won't get a replacement and they won't do anything for free.
And yes, it takes bad photos indoors still.
