Re: K850i Nightmare
You can try using photo editing software to turn the contrast way up, unless of course its a hardware issue.

Re: K850i Nightmare
Try updating the firmware through SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) to see if that will help. If that doesn't work...
Use your warranty with proof of purchaseto either have SE repair or replace it.Favorite Quote:

Re: K850i Nightmare
K850 is only known for its 5 megapixel camera.
But the features aren't as good.
So now apparentely if the camera isn't all that good I wouldnt' suggest this phone?

Re: K850i Nightmare
That's what I was afraid of. I used to have a K850i myself, and it did come with a few "bugs". Only option I see with less hassle is to send it in for service if you have warranty valid. Otherwise, just sell it and go with another phone with similar camera specs as the K850i.

Re: K850i Nightmare
Although it's good for trying to provide some info, please be more accurate...
The K850i is right now the flagship Cyber-Shot camera phone for Sony Ericsson. Although the phone does have some bugs, when it works well, it is an excellent performer. A few of the people I know that don't have any problems like their K850i.
Also, I don't see how the "features" are not as good. It runs the PSP menu UI over the standard on the mentioned models you stated, which are below.

W580i: 2MP camera with NO AutoFocus and NO flash, Walkman 2.0 app, Pedometer app, M2 Memory Stick Micro support only for memry cards, A2DP, and the usual stuff included on high to mid tier Sony Ericsson phones.
S500: Virtually the same phone as the W580i with the exception of the Pedometer app. If people are curious, yes you can flash the the phone's firmware from a S500i to that of a W580i if you prefer the more subtle look of the S500i over the W580i. The only thing that won't be working is the Pedometer because of the hardware.
W810i: 2MP camera with AF and dual LED flash, older Walkman 1.0 app, only Memory Stick Pro Duo memory card support, NO a2DP stereo bluetooth, the usual as well.
K800/K790: 3.2MP camera with AF, Xenon flash only, clunky Media Player, A2DP stereo bluetooth, only M2 Memory Stick Micro memory card support, sometimes the joystick can wear down with extended use, the usual stuff as well.
iPhone: Other than the sleek web browser and touch screen interface, there's not much said for the camera. It's a 2MP camera with no AF...and in terms of features, it doesn't give a whole lot for effects when taking pictures. Browsing the web with Wi-Fi is excellent. But when it comes to EDGE speeds, it is slow.

If you want the best out of those options, go with the Nokia N82.Favorite Quote:

Re: K850i Nightmare
The reason the picture is so dark is beacuse of the positioning of your hands. i had the same problem. you have to make sure that none of your fingers or thumbs touch the back of the k850i, i.e. hold th sides. Since i helped someone (or tried to) could someone help me? the touch sensitive buttons on my k850i do not work/very rarely work. i don't want to send it in for repair since i have replaced the lcd screen inside my myself and i think that would void the warranty. (it's obvious, screws scratched and one is missing, so are a few buttons lol)
