White dots while recording

gskelter · Jan 21, 2014

Hi guys i have a little problem with a moto g, when i want to record a video appear two white dots.

Already tried using other camera app but stil have the same result, this only happen while recording.

Any suggetions about what happen with the device?

Thanks

So can you post an example of it? It's really hard to understand what you mean by "dots". For one it might be pixels, for others a spot of dust or something.

I have two coloured artifacts on my screen when in camera mode. One is red, one is green, they are a few pixels in size. However, when I view a photo in the gallery they are not there, so it is clearly not an issue with the screen or with the image sensor.

Is this the kind of thing you are referring to?

Exactly that is the same is happening to me, i downloaded a pixel death fix to see it can fix it but i think is something with the camera

I wouldn't worry about it. It does not affect the pictures. It is not an issue with the camera in any physical way and it is not an issue with your phones screen.

I'd be interested to know what causes it, but it's not a real problem, just odd..

Try taking a screenshot of the issue while the camera is open. Do the artifacts show up on the screenshot picture?

Good idea. Yea they do show up on the screenshot

I added the photo. The main is the white mark in the middle and another 3 quartets of the way up.. It is odd

I see the middle dot, but can you highlight the other one?

helppme · Jan 21, 2014

Its too small and is lost in the resolution when its uploaded. It was in the top right corner about 2cm screen distance to the right of the flash sign and about 1cm from top of screen.

The one u highlighted is indeed the one in the middle.

Crosspost

After seeing this new thread with the same issue: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=50269795

I too can see two artifacts while in the camera app. If the screen is divided into four squares, the middle of the top two squares have these white artifacts.

They only appear in the camera app.
They do not show in pictures taken.
One does show in a screenshot. (attached)

From what I can tell, it is either an issue with the camera app or the sensor has defects that are eliminated by the camera processor.

White Dots

I too have just bought a Moto G and when the screen is dark or totally black in camera mode you can see 1 white dot plainly. I does not show up when you take photos, however the white dot is there when you record video. Try it and see. Ill be carrying mines back today to see if I can get an exchange. I mean its minor but a distraction to have this white dot in all your videos.

Attached is my screenshot of it.

I have also noticed the same problem and position of dots are blinking slightly.

Well I went back to the store where I bought it since it was less than 2 days I had it under warranty. They will be bringing more from another branch and I'll be getting it exchanged Monday.

He said to carefully look for any faults this time before picking one. lol!

So happy! However if all have the same dots then ill just stick with the one I got!
