About 10 days ago I took this photo with a Samsung G S3 enter image description here

and why do those lights appear as eh.. eh... stripes?? Just like there was a star filter but lacking the stripe which is perpendicular to the stripe..?
And I found this question but it's about a lens flare thing.. I thought my problem is about the aperture or something... But anyway, are that question and my question about the same problem?

    \$\begingroup\$ looks like a greasy front lens that one tried (and fail) to clean... Just my 2 cents \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ Did you check the front element of your lens? Is it clean? \$\endgroup\$

Yes — it looks the same to me. Likely to be caused by a smear on the front of your lens (or on a protective covering of some type). In fact, it's so similar I've marked this as a duplicate of the previous questions, as there's no real point in explaining the details twice.
