[Q] How bad IS the camera quality after Unlock? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Just wondering, how bad IS the Camera quality on our Z2s after unlocking the bootloader? Part of the reason I love my Z2 is the fantastic Camera/Camera quality with most images.
If it is awful I think i'll just hold out for the Stock Lollipop rom to come out.

I saw little different honnestly
It apears a tiny bit more noise but this is is a near nil difference on my device

Downgrade, root and make a TA backup before unlocking your bootloader

Ok, as I'm getting the flash-itch...
Having had a N5 previously and flashing it silly over the time I had it, i'm getting itchy fingers LOL

Well as said backup your TA then root
Then unlock your bootloader, just incase something goes wrong with the device

[Q] Potential camera problem?

Ive been using the camera without any issues so im not sure if it is related only to a couple apps or if its a possible problem with the camera that may get worse over time.
When using redlaser or att code scanner, after the item is done being scanned, the camera itself makes an audible click which is not a shutter noise. You can feel it, its not as strong a feel as the haptic feedback so i believe its the camera.
Is this something i should be worried about? Should i do an exchange on it?
On a side note, this click does not happen with the normal camera app or with any others ive used, just redlaser and att code scanner so far.
try factory restart

Yea i can confirm this…this is normal. I think happens because of the camera focusing.
Thank you guys for the feedback and suggestion Glad to know that its not an issue!

Unlocking bootloader/Rooting. What will I loose and how will it affect me?

Hi, I was thinking about gathering info from people about how unlocking bootloader and rooting affects you here. And make it into a list.
I.e what do you loose, what effect does it have and if there's an equal replacement.
Care to help out?
So far:
No OTA updates.
Drm keys are permanently lost - affect stock camera. To see results just test a 3rd parry app. Lowers MP to 8. Worse image processing?
Warranty (Software AND hardware) is void once you register for unlocking the bootloader. You don't have to actually unlock it.
Lose X reality and Super vivid mode. Can this be replaced/mimicked?

Yes, SW and HW, at least in Italy

And OTA updates won't work
Thank you, people!
So we loose X reality and Super vivid mode. Can this be replaced/mimicked by apps?
Anything else that is lost or changed by rooting?
Nothing is lost or changed by rooting. However, all of these things are lost by unlocking the bootloader.

Z3c câmera on the z5c

Hi guys, both my cameras stopped working, as I don't have warranty anymore and I have a old z3c, I'm wondering if the the z3c cameras are compatible with the z5c or if it's safe to even try.
I'm sorry for you, but i really don't think that this would work in any way.
If you root the device, you could install camera mods like Cyberian or Pexocam or just some camera ports. But i don't think that there's a way to install Z5 camera like a normal apk.

You tried to restore your phone with Xperia Companion?
Just to be sure, maybe i misunderstood you in the first place.
Your question was hardware related, wasn't it? So you wanted to know if it is possible to take the camera modules out of your old device and put them into your z5c.
If it is just software-related however it's another story.

Exactly, it's hardware related. I already tried to reset, PC companion, flash others firmwares, but without sucess. So before buy another camera module, I would like to try if the problem is with the current one.

Bad call quality

The sound on my s9 plus seems to sounds a bit muffled and not crispy at all. Does anyone know what I can do. I think i can live with it but it's annoying compared to the crisp sound of my note 4
It's terrible in comparison to my S6 Edge+.
Every call so far, I have had to get people to txt me a number so I can call them back from a landline.
At this rate I'll be returning the phone.

Have y'all tried enabling this feature or disabling it
My s9+ got an update today, that is supposed to fix those issues.
Exynos variant, PHN firmware

I don't have any options around "HD calling" as I'm not in the US - I believe it's a Sprint or other US carrier option only.
If I understand the option correctly it's part of VoLTE?

I saw that there was a release in Germany a few days back to resolve call stability, which some sites also claimed to resolve call quality issues.
Version G965FXXU1ARCC by the looks of it. Can you post what version/build number your device now has? Mine is G965FXXU1ARC4.

I placed a support call to Samsung yesterday, we did some troubleshooting including swapping the SIM for my wife's one.
I'm on Spark NZ, she's on Vodafone NZ, and the call quality with hers was perfect.
Her SIM is new, as her device (my Galaxy S6 Edge Plus) was the first she's had with a nano SIM.
My SIM is older, maybe 2 years old.
Anyway Samsung has grabbed hard onto that snippet of info and advised me to get a replacement SIM, and place a new support call if the issue continues.
@jeremysherriff - I am on R16NW.G965FXXU1ARCC
Well for me in Portugal , when i start a call with any one, the sound is really really good at the start i can hear them clearly, and then it gets lower, and lower , and worst and worst i don't understand why, i can still hear them properly, but not as clear as the start of the phone call
