Has the issue with the Camera Flash on the White cases for the HTC ONE M7 been resolved. I've read of many users on the XDA forums having issues.

If you take pictures with a flash, it will cause a light gray "crescent glow" on one side of the image. The only time I ever use a flash is for stuff I don't care about. Any photo without the flash will be fine.

I read those issues too but decided to take a chance. I have the HTC ONE M7 and have no issues with my rust case. The camera flash works fine and pictures come out great. I can't speak for the white case.

I have no problems with mine use it to take pictures of damage freight daily

At first I guess I didn't notice the flash issue in mid lighting. But yes it does have a flash glare. I. Used a small dremil sander attachment to widen the circle of the flash hole . No issues now . such a small repair makes it a awesome case.IMO.

The white case will cause a problem with pictures taken with the flash. A crescent glow on the image. Since I almost never use the flash, I don't care. Wish I could be more help. Other than that, this case is awesome! I love it. Phone buttons work better, grip is excellent, and it looks great. Very masculine. Haha.

I've noticed the weird glow when using the flash isn't as bad with this case! Sure it's not perfect, cause no case is but I think it's somewhat better.

On mine at night there is a little white blur in the corner if I use the flash. I have a white case so I'm assuming it's from that. I'm not really sure how to fix it. Otherwise case and the battery are amazing I usually go 2.5 days with out a charge. Get two batteries that way you always have one fully charged at home and ready to go.

Personally I don't take many pictures with my phone and when I do its usually during the daytime. My flash is always kept on auto so it doesn't normally go off but since you asked I tried taking a few pictures around with the flash on. What I found was there was no real difference in the same picture whether the case was on or off. There were no instances where glare was added to a picture unless there was glare already. I hope this helps.

I haven't had problems. BUT, I have the T-Mobile version. And that's what this is for (camera/back is different from other S II's).Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I understand it may be us, not the camera, although I've never had this problem with any other camera. May have to play with the white balance to correct the problem, at least that's what Panasonic told me. Two camera stores couldn't figure it out. Shouldn't be so complicated!

I just took a flash picture in an almost completely dark room and it looks great. On visual inspection of the 5S in the case, there does not appear to be any obstruction to the flash or aperture.

Is your phone a htc one m7? Or m8? It will fit on the m7, I doubt it will fit an m8.

I've had the case on my phone for quite some time and have had no issues with the case reflecting the flash while taking pictures.

The skin tone flashing and auto dimming are two seperate things. My set had auto dim issues (screen going nearly black) and the first update took care of it. I still have the flashing issue, sometimes severe, and the updates do not fix it. Go to avsforum and search it, it's a huge issue with these sets. Type in "red flashing".

Very good observation! The area around the flash is the same color as the plastic mount to hold the phone. With the Black leather it's black, in the red and brown, it's white. I have the brown case and there is definitely reflection off the case. I took a black sharpie and blacked the inside part around the flash. Not noticeable with the phone in the case and eliminates most of the bounce back. However, I think this is a problem with leather cases generally where the flash is as much as 1/8" deep in the case. There will be some bounce-back against the edge of the case. Had the same problem with a prior 4S case (which was black) and it took me a couple days to figure out that was the problem.

ok so this particular camera gives you that option? I don't have this camera. I'm looking to buy it and that's one thing that would make or break the purchase. I didn't know that's why it double flashes, thanks.

I've noticed this to be true as well. The idea never actually occurred to me that the issue was the case until now. I typically take the phone out of the case to take quality pictures though.

Nope doesnt work. I called customer support thinking this was just a gimmick to get people to buy the newer version, but it turns out there are major changes.The increased image sensor in the camera calls for a larger cut out, and to stop the flash from washing out images.The proximity sensor was also moved, which would then be blocked by the old defender series case. The guy on the phone told me the phone would technically fit, but not function properly during phone calls or while trying to take pictures.

Mine did on my EM5 and on a separate flash-only order. You could try to inquire of the vendor.

I haven't had or noticed any problems. I've taken several pictures and they come out lovely! I haven't tried taking any pictures using the flash, only daytime photos.

Annelise, Congratulations on your new phone. I love it! The HTC One is the M7 model and the case that I ordered for it fits perfectly. The volume buttons can be a little sticky at first. I think this is understandable any time you have buttons covering buttons. The first few times I used the volume buttons they were sticky; I would push down and the volume would go up and vice versa. I took the case back off the phone and pushed the buttons in a few times and did the same thing with the case on the phone. After a few times of doing this I have not experienced any problems from the volume rockers. I have had my case for a while now and have had no issues after the initial kinks. The phone should be pushed all the way into the case to allow the buttons to connect properly. On a side note I have had friends that got Mophie cases that experienced the same problems. One of the main reasons I got this case was the prolonged battery life but also to help reduce/eliminate the dust and debris from getting into the mic port. I REALLY enjoy this case and hope that you do as well.
