Hi guys, sorry if a thread like this has already been started, but I looked and search results on xda returned no thread found, so I figure might as well start one. I'm an new poster here, so please be patient. Here are some pictures I've taken with my galaxy s (from t-mobile usa). I've also uploaded a video to vimeo (I think I'm the first one, again, all searches on vimeo show no sgs videos, since I think most if not all are uploaded to youtube). Anyways, the pictures and video are on my site dublew dublew dublew dot foscode dot com/samsung-galaxy-review , and hopefully admins won't block the link from appearing (this is not a spam site). In case they do block it, I'm trying to also upload the pics to this forum. Hope you enjoy the pics and videos.
Page Not Found. Korean Community of Cincinati page right?
thanks for trying to check it out on my site, not sure why it redirected to the other one I maintain, I do have both sites on the same server, but I never had this problem before. I just tried accessing the site from a co-workers' pc and foscode came up... Please try again when you have a chance, and thanks for the input.
Is there a chance someone could post pictures taken in low light or dark environment. Since there is no flash they most likely are not usable, but I would like to see what the phone can do. Cause every once in a while there is that moment when you need to take a picture of your buddy passed out drunk at the table in bar or on the street..
Here are some pictures taken at waverly hills sanitarium, louisville, ky.

just like all digital cameras
Thanks, it was fun testing it out there in the dark, didn't get to see any ghosts though. Here is a picture a shot almost at the same time when someone took theirs with a flash, I had part of my finger in front of the camera.

Wow....those pictures are really poor quality, I expected better from the camera?
Are they taken in low light?
Don't get me wrong I love the Galaxy, my wife has one.
The picture attached was taken with my Nexus.
Those pics were taken at an abandoned building, at night, with no lights, or flash. If you are not familiar, look up waverly hills sanatorium on google, it is a famous tuberculosis hospital that closed in the 1960's, now they offer tours. So, to answer your question, yes, there were no lights at all, just imagine an abandoned building, in the middle of the night, no lights and no flash, try using any digital camera under the same cinditions and you'll probably get the same results. Thanks for checking the pictures out though.

This is at iso 800 which will have alot of noise because the size of the sensor. Havin more pixels doesn't mean better low light pics.

While assigning photos to various people I noticed that the quality was blurry,instead of hi-res like the source pic this is all the more so evident while using buddies now any suggestions or similar problems
Where are you adding these pictures from? Gmail through your PC browser or through the phone?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I sent them from a laptop to my email when I downloaded them to my vibrant they were nice and clear soon as I assigned them as a contact they got all blurry. Which is a problem for me,.... theses are the type of things that bring my inner OCD out
Yea, that's odd. Are the pictures blurry or just lost off detail? The images are scaled down and cropped when creating contact images, but it shouldn't be blurry.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Hmmmm I gotta say loss of detail kinda fuzzy def not as sharp as the original I know there are much more serious problems people have with the vibrant but this kind of thing bugs me to no end Especially coming from the hd2 I didn't have this problem(everything else sucked though) I see no reason the pics have to be scaled down in all respects this phone is a power house, if I want hi-res contacts gosh darn it I should have it
Well, this is not a Vibrant issue, just the way Android handles this. Try assigning the pictures via gmail.

Hey,
i will try to ask the question again.
does anyone know a way to use the front VIDEO camera to record myself ?
using I9000
i am looking for easy way to RECORD myself talking.
at the moment i am using the regular camera to record myself
Any help will be appiciate
Uh? In the camera app i use, the first button switches between front and back. But as this is so obvious i suppose i don't understand the question.
Hy,
It's simple to use that, just go to Camera and click the first "button" on the left side, hopefully it switches to the front camera either to take pictures or to record yourself
But indeed I think it depends on which version of Android do you use.
If you've troubles continuously just feel free to ask!
Henry.

he was asking if theres a way to set it to video mode, as the front facing camera only takes photo and not videos.
Oh, really, I misunderstood what he want. Srry, but I don't know how to use as VIDEOcamera...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
I never realised that videomode was not accessable for the frontcam. Thats lame.
you can't change camera once you are in video mode

total lame, i didn't even tought about it until i try to use it and then i have find out it is impossible.
the other thing is i couldn't find any information about this problem on XDA or any other forum, i guess it is not as common issue as i would expect.
oh well, i hope someone will do some development about it.
So I decided to give the gps program Navigon a spin, and although it was a lengthy download to get the maps, I found it quite useful. However, one of the options was to use the camera as a "viewfinder" and it was supposed to do like an augmented reality navigation. Not only did this not work, but it made my camera viewfinder screen stretched out, kind of like when you try to stretch a 4:3 movie in a 16:9 resolution. I have uninstalled the program and rebooted phone multiple times, but to no avail. I am currently running wolf's cm6 v007 with no xperia ui and the FPS limit removed...
If anyone has any suggestions or if I can provide any more info that could lead to a solution, please let me know...

You may end up having to back up all your data and reflash the rom.
blargh...i was hoping that wasn't the answer...i just got it the way i like it...<sigh>
Pm the person who made the Rom before flashing and ask then. Can't hurt.

I'm also having problems with Instacrap, specifically the hipster talent results. Every time I try to edit a photo it turns out looking like a polaroid or a hemorrhoid. I keep hearing iprone users say they deleted photoshop and turned their real cameras into lamps and ashtrays, but I must be missing something. Is the android version different? I've noticed better results when I ran out of toilet paper and had to use people magazine to wipe! Maybe I could write an app that smears poop on photos...
Anybody have trouble posting pics? Mines keep saying its too small and I know that's not the case because I have my resolution up to the highest.

I feel the same way...personally I can't see why everyone is getting all frothy over an app that makes pictures that look like they came from cameras that need to be thrown away.
Not only that but it's a 12MB install!

it isn't about the filters, there are several Android apps with much better filters and more variety. Instagram is about the built-in community.
So I've been taking some photos with my new nexus and I've noticed that the gallery/camera display and read core incorrect dates and I don't know why. For some of the photosphere pictures, it recorded the right time but said it was UTC so in the gallery it subtracted 8 hours from it. In others it was fine. I found this most often in the GPS date. In others, it is missing almost all of the exif data and has a date of 00:00 12/8/2002. In ALL of the pictures the date digitized says 12/8/2002. In about half of my pictures the date taken is also 12/8/2002 but in others it has the correct date taken. But only 3 show up as 2002 in the gallery. Very inconsistent, random, and confusing. Is this a bug/known/etc? I remember something like this happening on the gnex where it would date pictures several days in the future and in UTC instead of regular time. Only my photo sphere pictures are affected by the UTC problem, and only some of them at that.
Anyone else with this issue? I've already tried clearing gallery cache and data. No luck. Pictures show up fine in instant upload.

I don't have an answer for you (sorry), but as someone who has been annoyed with the awful Gallery app for a long time, let me recommend using either PicFolio ($3) or Quickpic (free) instead. They both offer much more customization, including letting you order your photos and video by name instead of date. QuickPic is great if you keep your photos and video local, and PicFolio is great if you store them in Picasa/Google+.
It's harder to do with jelly bean because the gallery and camera app are one and the same. Or at least they're joined at the hip

I hear you. There's no way of getting rid of Gallery, but the apps I mentioned work seamlessly along with it. The Gallery app is lurking on my phone, but I never go into it.
I think it may have had something to do with me having no service and therefore no network provided time and time zone

Good point, it happened to me too, and I had no service too... I'll try to set time manually and see what happen with sphere photos
