I think there a bug with the autofocus on the phone, can't focus on the center, every picture it focus only the back like in portrait mode.
Anyone having the same problem?
True, it is backfocus.
The same happens on my two units.
I am looking for a registry value that allows to change the focus point, but I have not found anything yet.

It's touch-focus. You have to tab on the screen where you want to focus.
It is a back focus problem.
I've tested autofocus. I used the same patterns that I use with my SLR camera. I made a central focus in testing, I placed the object in the center of the image. The result is that there backfocus.

Hi guys,
Since my Universal is dead I've just brought an HTC Tytn.
There is any way to access the front videocam? In Universal you just need to go to camera app and choose the front camera, where you can take pictures and make videos.
In Hermes camera app you can only access the 2.0mpx cam... I've already installed Coolcamera 1.5b and I still can't choose the front VGA videocam.
Any suggestions?
Tks

PS. No 3G networks available in Brazil, so no videocalls yet...

I had same problem, but some folks have said coolcamera can access front camera - maybe someone can let us know how it's done with coolcamera?
Mike
yup coolcamera let's you access it, you just switch from main to frontcam, you can take pics and all using it.
photo / settings / sensor / front
If you go into settings there is a setting called "Sensor" ... you need to change that from 'Main' to 'Front' and then it will capture from the front camera.
Hope this helps

hi
it's possible access to front camera without use coolcamera?
thx
I can use the front camera now with coolcamera but the screen is 90 rotated to the right. There is no way which I could correct this even if I change the rotation setting. Can someone help, please?

Yeah. I get that too.
Also, Probably me being dense, I can't seem to get the web cam to actually work on my pc.
I can set the IP address in the pda to that of my PC. The port is 2047 on both devices, but nothing seems to appear.
What am I doing wrong?

Difficult to say. Presume ypu have used d-pad or jog wheel on device to select webcam mode. Presume you have started the coolcam software on your PC and a coolcam window (which is expandable) has opened on your screen with instructions as to the next steps to take. And finally that your active sync connection is live. Sometimes I get the window on PC coming up blank/black in which case I close PC application and restart it.
The little 90 symbol on screen should rotate image. If not and restarting does not make it work, I think I'd reload the software.

On CoolCamera forums support said that the rotaton issue is a bug they're aware of and will fix later. Nothing you can do for now.

I wonder though why it affects some and not others. Mine is ok - rotates fine.

I have successfully removed the camera from my Vogue but I want to do more than just have it physically removed. I also need to remove the camera "software" from the pictues and video viewer. If I click on the camera by mistake, it locks up the phone since it can't find it. I figure it will require registry hacks but I don't know where to begin. Any help would be great. You can track my progress here.
http://www.sprintusers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156014
map the camera button to some other function... Start-->Settings-->Buttons and then pick another function, e.g., <OK/CLose>.
um... not what I meant. I have remapped the hardware buttons. I mean in the software. The photo and video viewer itself. When you open up the photo viewer, there is a picture of a camera. As we all have done, we fat finger sometimes and push the wrong thing. If I save a picture someone sends me which I save and I want to look at it I must use the photo viewer. If I hit the little camera icon, my phone locks up because it can't find the camera and I have to reset. Too anoying. I need a fix for that.
got it.... maybe one of the "xda chefs" here can help you out.
That is what I am hoping for.
curious why the removal of the camera?
Required by work and I am not giving up the phone

Please tell me you took some high res pictures of the component side of the board. =) Over on the Titan forum we have been trying to figure out if its possible to do a 128meg upgrade,but we are at a roadblock. We hope that knowing what ram chip the Vogue uses will be helpful to us,but the only pictures we are able to find of it are of too low a resolution to help.

Sorry I didn't
I love my Touch HD, however the quality of the indoor/night photos disappoint me so much!
The worst part is that when taking a photo at night or in indoor places, we have to hold firmly and the smallest move makes the photo blurry. Damn it! Even my girlfriend´s old Nokia 7373 takes better photos in these situations.
The problem of the Blackstone is that the camera prefers to reduce the ISO (in order to reduce the level of noise) and increases the length of capture time. This causes blurred photos with almost no noise (but hey HTC, what´s the great point in it?).
I would like to ask if there´s any way to change some settings (via registry or something else) in order to increase the ISO and reduce length capture time. I really don´t mind of having noiser images as long as they aren´t blurred.
Can anyone help me in this? Above I´m posting two images, to make you understand better what I´m talking about. The first one was taken with Blackstone and the second with the Nokia 7373 (both in the same place and time). If you look the photos in the maximum resolution you´ll see that everything is "sharper" in the second photo, although more noisy.
Thanks in advance!

decrease the 'brightness' setting on the camera to -2.0: http://www.fuzemobility.com/decrease-the-blur-of-your-camera-really/
Hi friend. I´ve tried this.. it parcialy works in some situations, but it makes the photo get darker. This is the opposite of what I´m looking for: increasing the ISO.
The camera´s software of the new ROMs (Dutty, Hellonasty, Laurentius) offer the option of increasing the ISO, but it simply doesn´t work on HD. Has anyone tested this?
Thanks.
Just wondered if anyone knows how to amend the settings so you can shoot panorama in full resolution rather than the 640*480 it is set to.
I have seen registry hacks for HTC phones to do this but the registry keys do not exist on the Omnia.
Other than that would it be possible to take the Samsung camera application and amend it to allow these settings to be changed.
I am aware this will take longer to stitch the photos but this is a small sacrifice to get proper panoramic pictures using this.
Yeah, does any one know how to increase image pixel for the panoramic shot?
the 640 setting is totally useless!
UP
As it also interrest me
same thing here I also wanted to know too guys
It is not possible.
Only by developping a soft that would do it.
I have an HTC AT&T Pure running duttys R10 rom.
everythings great but in camera mode I have no macro mode (little flower) for shooting up close pictures. I've searched all over this forum and the web and have found no mention of a macro mode for this phone's camera. Except review mentions of "with macro mode for up close shots" etc.
With a 5 megapixel camera I would figure that such a mode would be possible but I cannot find it or a way to make it appear.
any ideas? am I just asking too much of my Topaz?
So just like everywhere else? Nobody has any idea?
My personal view is that the auto focus does a very good job of focusing at around 6-8 cm from the subject. Thus not needing the macro (flower icon). My Samsung WB1000 focuses only very slightly nearer than 6cm and thats in macro mode but dues to wide lens on the unit it coin still seems further away.
Attached are photos, infact I would say that the Diamond 2 gets closer to the coin but does not hold as much detail.
I have not tried this with my DSLR but it would depend on which lens I used.

To enable Macro Mode navigate in registry to HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\General\MacroMode=>1
OMG!!! sweet.. thx bruce.. ill try that now and see if that works.. or is what im looking for..

Sorry, not sure how to force to RAW format.
I just applied Bruces Reg suggestion, and don't see any Macro setting, after resetting. Will it just automatically go to Macro when close up? This site is a great source of info!

It should open the control panel within the software, giving you the flower icon for close ups.
Recheck the key and see if it stayed = 1.
Yes, it stayed at 1. Hmmm. I'll take some close up pics, and see how they come out.
