I'm not sure when this started exactly, but it's been fairly recent. When I take video on my phone everything looks just fine as I'm recording, but then i play it back there's a green silhouette and it's like a ghost image on top of things. I take it this means my phone is screwed? Anything I can try to fix it? Taking pictures is just fine. I'm kind of pissed cause I got this phone shortly after it came out and my 2 yr contract isn't up until June. Now I'm probably not going to be able to sell it for anything when the time comes :mad:

Nothing wrong with your Device :good: the issue is in the HTC Camera App. Only full HD is affected you can record at 1080x720 without problems. Or you can replace the Camera app for an older version.
It's been fixed in the lollipop update. ;)

Awesome! Just tried it at 720p and you're right. Glad I asked cause I was just going to assume it was done for. Thanks :good:
