    Where are your photos taken? Usually its best to manually set the white balance. Because when I take indoor photos with that setting at auto, the pictures come out yellowish too. Hope this helps.

    ive tried several drivers on the phone and the problem still persists, it could be a problem with the white balance rendering on the firmware because the white LED brightens everything and the software over-compensate to make the picture seem more natural. If possible, try to avoid using the LED on close-ups of anything white. :D

    I don't have my phone with me, but for indoors shots, choosing the "incandescent" setting for white balance seems to get decent results.

    I normally avoid taking photos with flash because it gives off a bright artificial color. Also when taking close-up shots with the macro setting, the minimum distance from the object is roughly around 10cm, any closer and your photos won't come out clean.

    Hi jack_snap,
    These yellowish dots are called noise, especially they will be more in indoor photos taken at night time. You can use a freeware called "Noiseware community edition" to remove these noise. I use this software and get very good results.
    Here is the link to the software:

    Hope it will help you.

    Hi,
    No it's not the noise in the picture i'm talking about ..... it's the tone of the picture which i'm talking about

    I'm attaching two pictures to show what i mean ... One is taken using flash and one without.... The picture with flash has yellowish tone to it ...... (Both the pictures were taken with Night mode & Macro Mode Turned ON)

    By the way the tool which you recommended works great for the photos having noise ..... Thanks for that :)

    You were right ...Fiddling with White Balance setting did helped me ..... For me, Setting it to Fluorescent produced good natural colour with no yellowish tone ....Thanks for the Help :)
