New camera firmware in EB01! - Fascinate General

After flashing EB01 and opening the camera, it informed me I had an incorrect firmware version. The message had a button that took me to a screen to update the firmware.
Nothings changed.
Funny thing is, I was looking at launcher pro's shortcut crap, and noticed I could make a shortcut right to a feature of an app on the device, and I saw something to do with cropping under the camera stuff (which is why I went and opened it, I thought it was a new feature added by EB01.)
So would the knowledgeable people please tell us what the firmware changed, and if the camera does in fact have the ability to crop images?

Firmware has changed. I had to update mine too.

DL30 had a firmware change which made a few adjustments (you can see most, I believe, on the DL30 notes). I've not heard anything about DL30 -> EB01 requiring a firmware update for the camera... were you on DL30, or an Eclair rom?

I was on Elcair Rom before going to EB01 and received the same message, but no way to update it. Anyone know how we are to update the firmware?

There should be a prompt to update the firmware when you launch the Camera app. Choose the only option with "Write" in the title. You'll need to reboot after install.

Thanks so much, I wasn't sure which update to choose!

When I went from DL30 to EB01, I got the message a second time that my camera firmware needed to be updated. Just click yes, and on the next screen you choose to flash from phone to camera (it's the last of three options, don't remember exactly what it said).
I imagine EB01 has the same camera firmware update as DL30 did. Not sure why it had to be flashed a second time going from DL30 --> EB01.
On a side note, I love the camera in 2.2. Extremely fast. Takes next to no time at all to snap a pic now.

The firmware update enables geotagging and also shows a thumbnail preview of the last image taken on the camera screen

ALSO we can PAUSE our video recording! You hit pause, then it stops recording, then hit the button again and it starts recording again where you left off, all as a single file!
That's gonna come in handy. I can't tell you how many times I've combined videos in windows movie maker when the pause button would have done the trick to begin with
but sadly, you can't turn the screen off when paused, so if you're planning on keeping a whole wedding or something limited to one file, prepare to drain the battery quick

You could do this on Eclair. I'm on DJ05 and can do it (literally just tested to be sure). The sound takes a brief moment (250ms? hard to guess by ear) to come back in, but the video shifts instantly upon unpausing.

Changes on the camera are GREAT!!
I am loving the 2.2 leak on my phone. phone is stable and runs better.

[Q] HD2 NODO camera bug with barcode apps?

I've tried a few of the 7392 ROM's on my HD2 and they all (at least the one's I've used) have problems with barcode scanning apps (the one's I've tested). I've tried the DFT, HD2O, and XBmod ROM's and they each behave the same way with the apps I tested. The apps were ShopSavvy, Walgreens, and Key Ring.
This problem did not happen in the 7004 builds (Pre-Nodo). At least one other member has the same problem that I'm seeing but I can't find any posts relating to this issue.
I made a video showing the behavior in 7004 and then in 7392 but I can't post the link here because I don't have enough postings yet. To see the video just search for 3TYXirDre3o on Youtube. Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas as to what may have changed from 7004 to 7392 that would cause this?
UPDATE:
I can add the YouTube link now: http://youtu.be/3TYXirDre3o

In your Pre-Nodo EU HD2, did it fail because the pictures were blurry or did you get the errors that I showed in the video? In my Pre-Nodo build, it failed to work due to the pictures being too blurry but after enabling the on-screen shutter button via the registry, I was able to take focused pictures that the barcode apps could process. With the Nodo builds, the image never makes it back to the app to be processed.

Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Camera\Settings\, create a key named SoftShutterButton and give it a value of 1. The phone does not need to be restarted.
jaxjaguar you just made my day with your registry tweak. THAAANKSSSS. By the way my camera works great now
Glad I could help. Hopefully someone has a fix for the problem I'm having with the Nodo builds.
I have the same issue with MobileTag - it doesn't work after NoDo update Camera starts, but then it shuts down and returns to AppList

[Update 9/19] MIUI camera v17 & Gallery for CM7 & Blur builds

This is still a WIP, camera is100% working so is video.
I added the Miui gallery apk to the list. I can confirm it works on CM7 as of now. If someone wants to test on stock blur builds let me know the outcome.
I see a lot of people complaining about the stock CM7 gallery so giver a shot.
If you get a chance THANK Mongoosehelix for his hard work. I just brought the app to our table but he is the one doing all the hard work!!!
Hopefully this modified version he has will work. MIUI cam is by far my favorite.
My girlfriend has an Inspire running CM7. When I put CM7 on her phone she was greatly disappointed in the stock CM7 camera app. I put the MIUI cam app on her Inspire and she loves it. I have to admit the app is great and has alot of great functions that most ROM cameras dont.
The MIUI cam offers a few options the droid 3 cam does not ie: Burst mode, anti shake, and a nice quick continuous auto focus. I have been playing with them side by side and i have to say the MIUI cam seems to do a better job overall. Images seem richer and a tad crisper.
The app needs a little DEV TLC still, but all camera functions working. Video works, just not sure of its resolution.
I am not a dev and I just like to play around try to get things working that dont lol. Well this worked out of the box to my surprise. Give it a shot and report back what you think.
If you have both the droid 3 and miui installed you have to back out of the app not just hit home or either cam app icon will revert to one last used, unless you back out then you can go back and forth. No FC or errors.
Focus tone still exists when long pressing picure button. Mute for the shutter tone works on CM7. Blur builds require the build.prop edit below.

I'm not getting it to work, I downloaded the apk and installed, made sure that I backed out of the stock camera and killed it another time, but miui camera still force closes.
Sorry wrong files, Links fixed.
Forgot to mention I'm also on Alien 4, fixed permissions through ROM Manager the first time, didn't work, tried through CWM, didn't work either, still force closing.

The video is being saved as a 3gp so no, but i am sure a clever dev out there can tweak this working MIUI cam to do more with the atrix hardware, but tahts outta my league. I think the only benefit in its current state is just the added picture options for the camera. I havent had anytime to work on this any further as i am at work and already doing stuff i shouldnt be doing lol.
can you change where the images are stored?
Its for picking the location you wish to store the files, but considering this isnt designed for our hardware it doesnt know what to do i think. By default it saves to internal DCIM folder. There are still a few minor bugs to work out, but for the most part all camera functions are working. I hope a dev can take this and build upon it to make it 100% functional, it will stay as is for the next day or two. Im off 3 days in a row so that will give me time to dive into the inner workings and tweak it a little.
I wanted to get this out so others with a little more know how could improve it before my slow ass can get to it. I just wanted to share because i think its one of the best camera apps out there.
Just for ****s and giggles I tried it on cm7 pb3 it opens and I can see the whole ui set up and when I click to take a picture it flashes but doesn'tsave the picture(exact same thing with stock cm7 camera at the moment) so hopefully when thise wrinkles get ironed out mui camera should work for cm7 also. *crosses fingers*

Yup thats the same wall i got too with it as well, i then decided its something to do with CM7 and hardware. Its there and working as an app in CM7 just cant access the hardware completely or something along those lines
I like it, but I can't get it to turn off the shutter sound.
as soon as my apt-get update completes on webtop, i'll reboot and test it out on Aura 1.1.3 Build 8 Debloat.
I already have it transferred to system/apps and have fixed permissions, will report back shortly

installed great on Aura, i just plopped the .apk into system/apps
as with the others, shutter tone would not silence, no option to choose storage location, other than that i love it, might be a keeper
Works great on aura. I downloaded the .apk and simply installed it with the package installer! It even saves the picture size that you last selected. Forget the droid one, I like this one.

FFC support and im switching!
I'm glad the the v17_Fixed2 version is working pretty well for you all and if you want to install it using a flashable zip, follow the link in my sig. Also, I'm curious if the v17_TEST1 version I posted HERE works any better for the Atrix. Other phones have been able to switch to and use their FFC as well with TEST1.

Enable Photo Sphere?

So, I've just got my Nexus 4 and absolutely loving it. That said, I can't for the life of me find where to take Photo Sphere's.
On my G-Nexus I just opened the camera and in the bottom left I click the little camera image and select the Photo Sphere option. There is no such option on my Nexus 4.
Anyone else has this issue?

I just rebooted the phone and up came the update which included info on Photo Sphere. I didn't even realise.
Before the update it already said I have 4.2 installed so I thought I was up to date already.
Thanks a lot. :good:
The update is still 4.2, it just adds a few features that were still being completed (lock screen widgets, PhotoSphere and probably some other stuff).
Okay, I installed the software update on my nexus 4, it says it is up to date, yet I still do not have photo sphere or lockscreen widgets! what is up with this?
Edit: okay, going into programs and resetting the framework allowed me to recheck for updates.
Maybe tried rebooting? Happened with me, too, then it showed up later randomly.

What build number does your phone show? i
It should be JOP40C.
I am having the same problem. My version is jvp15q, and when I try to update it says I'm up to date. When I first got the phone and it said there was a update, it started updating but it had an error message. Not sure if that's related.

Changes I noticed on 4.1.2 XXDLL4

These are some changes I noticed on the new 4.1.2 XXDLL4 ROM released for India.
1- Better browser performance. Now I see the browser like a 'real' desktop. I always had flash player installed but there were annoying white empty spaces in some websites, but now there is no more.
- Browsermark results (mobile view)
(Desktop view)
2- There is a three dot icon while calling. Don't know what it does or it's meaning!
3- Obviously the most flashy feature is the introduction of ink effects!
Different colour options are available, if you like
4- You can edit notification panel now, add or delete as per your wish. You can now permanently disable the Mutliwindow too. So holding the back button won't enable it anymore.
5- AnTuTu benchmark, if anyone is interested.
6- The number format in SMS is weird! It splits the number! Bad.
7- Sorry I don't find the continuous input prediction to be better, nor Swyping.
8- There is a cursor control option in keyboard settings, however you won't be able to use it with Continuous input!
9- And I hate the new 'slim' clock font introduced. Loved the previous bold look WAY better!
10- And I think the S Note application is faster than before now. It'd take 3/4 seconds to create a new note before, and it seems faster now, say 30%? Or am I wrong?
11- When the font size was selected as Normal the cursor was not seen in some applications like Tapatalk and others, but now it is fixed
So if you guys are noticing anything else kindly share here.
I think that the spaces between numbers are good? Easy to read.
Mine is BTU, nothing yet on Kies
Still waiting

One thing I noticed, a VERY welcomed addition i might add, is the Gallery "ACTUALLY ASKED ME!" If I wanted my Facebook photos to appear or not! Thank god for that haha.
Is there any Lag?
Zooming in gallery was laggy in poland 4.1.2
is it the Same Here ?
Here's my list
1. Camera feature: Hold Volume to focus, release to take photo
2. Video feature: Press Volume to start recording, press again to toggle flash.
3. 480p Flash Video Works (if you have latest Flash Player 11.1.115.34 Installed)
4. New Samsung Keyboard Feature: Cursor Control, Continuous Input (If you didn't already have it)
5. Customized Notification Toggle Icons
6. New Notification Toggles: AllShare Cast, Smart Stay, S Bean, Driving Mode, Blocking Mode
7. Brightness slider can now be disabled, but who would do this?
8. Stock web browser rendering improvements, seems to load pages faster, but I can't say for sure.
9. Ink Effect with S Pen on Swipe lockscreen, and customizable ink colors.
10. Gallery in normal list mode is now 3d rendered. When you flick it fast, the photos tilt.
11. Brightness control notification disappears at 5% battery. Don't like!
12. New save option for HDR shooting mode for camera. Save HDR only.
13. Write notes to front of the picture with polaroid type frame...
14. Video Player app's alphabetization is fixed.
15. Screen capture icon for Video Player app is changed.
16. Multi Window with Video Player adds sharpening to entire screen.
17. Bug fixed when full screening Video Player from multi window (no more notification bar).
18. S Planner has new post-it option.
19. Groupcast
20. Vibration and pop noises when Email is hovered with S Pen in Email app.
21. Handwriting recognition bug fix where it used to only first take in a few strokes interpret only the first few letters, then resume, but it would mess you up in the process. No longer an issue.
22. Click on the picture of your contact, in Contacts app, and it is integrated with services such as facebook, skype, maps, etc.
23. Set music in slideshow in gallery? Was that there in 4.1.1?
24. The slideshow music plays when you choose "Play continuous shot" in Gallery with photos taken in continuous shot mode.
25. In landscape mode in Gallery, the last shared option icon is present next to standard share icon in gallery. This may have been there in 4.1.1. Just seeing it for the first time because I probably don't share photos often.

General Performance Improvement: Overall software enhancements aimed at improving device responsiveness and overall user experience
IPv6 Support: Device now fully supports the Internet Protocol version to IPv6

Also, Band 12 LTE is still enabled after this update. I can also confirm that the filters/crashing issues with Snapchat are indeed solved. Feel free to reply with your own experience below!
It would be nice if TCL would give a release date for an actual Android update.
I just got the update. Scrolling performance seems better and stock camera seems better. Anyone else notice any improvements?

It's to your advantage to actually INSTALL the update. Update's make changes to more partitions than just System and Boot which is what the TWRP images restore..they are great for fixing a hosed system partition but if you use them all the time you are going to miss out on newer radio drivers and other changes which may be required for things to work smoothly.
Do a full unroot from within supersu config...reboot...download and install the update...after sucessful reboot you can reflash TWRP(if replaced by factory recovery) and then flash the supersu zip file to re-enable root.
Instagram is still a stuttering mess.
GPS Icon bug and AM/PM lock screen misalignment are still present. Can't believe those two easily fixed things have made it past 3 updates.

This update thoroughly fixed the issues with Snapchat filters - works great now - but the stutters scrolling through Instagram are my one glaring issue with this phone. Also most videos in my Instagram feed won't play immediately and repeatedly flash a "repeat" or "play again" icon while loading the video, only to have most of the videos never actually play. I've never seen this app behavior on other Android phones.
Regarding the lock screen, I could swear they reduced the font size on the clock with this update (or I'm just now noticing the AM/PM misalignment?).
Can anyone confirm if this update fixed the wake-in-pocket issues some people were experiencing? I haven't had enough time to test.
i downloaded the update where is it located? so i can dig it up with es file explorer
Welp, phone unrooted, still can't find any update whatsoever. I'm using a "french" 6045Y BTW.
Any clue here?
PS: Flamewolf, a .zip package can also edit partitions on it's own accord, just because normal CROMS don't do that, it doesn't mean they CAN'T.
For practical example, just check out sdmerge for the E400. Do you think those .zip use magic to add 1 GB to your phone?
Still no update for 1st or second update in Eastern Europe (Croatia/Serbia/Bosnia)
