Pearl 8220 camera image quality is poor, poor, poor

The photo image quality of the camera on my BB Pearl 8220 is extremely grainy and dark.

 

I understand this is a cell phone camera and expectations are low to begin with, but this is unacceptably low quality.  The flash appears to function properly but that doesn't matter because the image quality is poor even for pictures taken in full sunlight.  

 

Are there camera adjustments or settings that I haven't found that can remedy this problem?  The ones I HAVE found have had no effect.

 

Thanks for any help.

I couldn't agree more, the camera is HORRIBLE. It's one of the problems with this phone that will lead me to replace it early, if I don't throw it against the wall first.

 

I doubt there is a fix of any kind, but I'd love to hear of one.

i've taken some good pics with our phones...

 

I did notice that you need to be extremely steady (no built in "camera shake"), but other than that, its all been good. 

 

I used the options to make the pics as large as possible too; but I do that with our digital camera as well.  I use Paint Shop to edit them on our PC.
