Hi,
I noticed yesterday when out and about snapping photos on my 1020 (first time since updating) that all of my photos have severe sub standard quality compared to 8.0. My images either appear slightly out of focus on the point of interest, exposure totally whacked in many instances and zoom quality of the high res images exactly the same as the 5mp file where detail just gets blocky. I compared the images to some I took prior to the update and it's bad....... real bad. Taking an image of a person with beard for example before you could zoom and distinguish beard hairs where now it just turns in to a fuzzy mess like a low res image. File sizes of photos are consistent with 34mp so whatever fine tuning Nokia do in the firmware seems to be lost in the 8.1 DP
I opted to try and restore the phone with the Nokia tool, everything goes well and it downloads a 1.42gb image but as soon as it's hit 100% it states that there is a network issue and to check firewall/anti virus. I've tried this on 3 machines over my home internet and also using my phone as a tether, disabled the firewall and anti virus and it's the same on all machines. Exact message it throws up is "A network error has occurred. There is a problem connecting to the service. Ensure that your firewall and virus protection settings are correct". I've deleted the files over and over again but same issue occurs at 100% download
Can anyone with the 1020 please check their snaps to see if they're having similar issues and tell me if I'm alone with the recovery error too?
