Xperia ION Camera quality become worse

[karthiknss]

qualiy of the picture taken using my Xperia ION mobile looks so bad. auto foucs functionality not works as expected. in the begining camera quality was good, but after some firmware upgrades it looks bad(lots of noise, auto foucs not foucused on the objects). i went and upgraded my mobile firmware from 6.1.E.2.68 to  6.1.E.3.7 through PC companion, but image quality looks the same .

upgraded to 6.1.E.2.68 from initial version of firmware shipped with mobile for an issue with 3g network.

Not sure what is the reason for bad photo quality.

Model: Xperia Ion(lt28)

Current Firmware running: 6.1.E.3.7

Help appreciated !.

I strongly suggest you to check your camera settings. Put everything on default and check again. I am also running 6.1.E.3.7 and I've got no complaints about the image quality.

No bro... Even hard factory reset doesn't work's.

how did you upgraded to this firmware version? through PC companion or ?

[MaXmobius]

Did you try to go to "Settings"->"Applications"->"All"->"Camera" and clear data?

I've seen someone said that it can fix camera proble for XS.

[karthiknss]

tried this too. but no luck

[karthiknss]

does any one get solution for this issue?

[karthiknss · Accepted solution]

issue fixed by flash and install firmware with flashtool. PC companion or SUS doesnt fixed the issue.

i installed older version of firmware through flashing and then installed new firmware version.
