I would really like to get the cm7 video camera app on stock gingerbread. reason being the audio is far superior to the crappy stock gingerbread worthless video. Shame on you htc/sprint for not updating audio quality. I could care less about 720p if your not going to put decent audio with it.
is there a kernal I would have to change to? and would this affect stability of stock?
I agree. Gingerbread is supposed to provide for aac and amrwb audio recording, so I've been anxiously awaiting it's release for my evo. I spent half the day backing up all my stuff, downloading the new gingerbread ota, flashing, then restoring everything--only to find the crap camera app is no better than the piece of junk I already had!
WTF! This is EVIL games they are playing with us. Pure EVIL I tell you!
bump anyone else have an answer to my question? about getting cm7 video cam on stock ginger
(actually ginger is worse because flash doesnt sync with photo now lol at least on mine)
I just got an HTC HD2 off of eBay. It came with a SanDisk 16 GB Class 4-ish MicroSD that I took out (since I figured it's too slow). I put in my trustly ol' 8 GB Class 10 with "MccMBoxmaX GS V7.0 SD" Android 2.3.3 on it.
Booted it up, everything except 720p Video Recording seems to be working, but I noticed some graphical glitching when there's some animation in the UI going on (I see no such glitching when flicking through the apps, web browser, and etc). Angry Birds (yes, I tested it), and GameBoid run very smoothly and no glitching whatsoever. Pictures taken with this build are acceptable quality.
Also, some things are little sluggish (like bringing down the notification bar) in this build.
Oh and, any resolution video recording with this ROM seems to be a no-go: it stutters like crazy. I'm thinking it's because it's trying to record on the SD while running the OS and the App off of the SD.
What do you guys recommend I do? Get another SD build, or get a NAND build? What ROM do you guys recommend?

because its gingerbrad and sense 3, video isnt working perfectly and the glicthes are common on the roms
it is nothing to do with your sd card
I see.
I like the convenience of syncing with Gmail Contacts. I unlocked the phone btw since I'm an AT&T user.
I came from an LG Incite with custom ROM. Boy what a difference Capacitive touch makes.
I've installed Typhoon Cyanogenmod 7. It feels a lot faster than the SD build I was using before, and did not have any of the graphical glitches while having a newer build of Gingerbread (2.3.4).
It did not have the option to not pull data from my Wireless Account during setup so it did use up $0.15 on my account. Had to disable Data in settings afterwards.
Found a bug in CyanogenMod 7 (latest build): disappearing dock after doing certain action:
how to reproduce bug: take finger, swipe across the screen from bottom to top, starting from the dock
Re-produced on a friend's Droid 2 with APEX too.
#EDIT:
Nevermind, not a bug. Seems to be a feature in ADW.

haha...... great rom you have tested for your first android build, that and the one in my signature are the only 2 i will flash between atm, there are alot of good roms out there i just prefer them 2..
Use the rom in my sig. However, update will be in a few weeks...
Its nand build froyo with 2.1sense. Older than than sense3 but no glitches. Uses data2Ext so you have about 700+mb system space. I feel that its the best functional rom.
99% stock. A better looking %battery indicator.
Including some cool comfortaa fonts.

Wallpaper is my own edited sense 3 version. Not included in rom

That rom is not Sense 2.1. Sense 2.1 is the first build that came with the quick power settings on notification and the new paginated app drawer and is only found on Gingerbread, not Froyo.
Still mixed up a bit, as a first time HD2 user (coming a long way from as ex-samsung galaxy S user) which ROM should I use ?
looking for stable ROM, prefer GB is possible.

Do a cmylxgo Stock DesireHD ROM v1.1.18. It's pretty much a perfect DHD ROM for the HD2.
Now that everything is almost fixed, I'm thinking of flashing the ics on my kindle. But the question is that do you need root access to get the ics working? Because I got the 6.2.2 update and i lost my root access. And is the ics rom working properly? Such as hardware accel. And any bugs that needs to be fixed? Because I want it to be perfectly stable maybe I should wait more.

Video is only partially fixed. Youtube works, but needs to be in SD mode. Netflix is reported as not working.
HW acceleration is not ready yet. If video is your priority, stick with CM7 for now.
Custom ROMs need root as far as I am aware.
as posted above video is half fixed let's say more of patched but not 100% no Netflix yet but it is more responsive touch wise sound works great I moved my backups to my PC , I'm comfortable enough to make this my daily drive now cm7 is nice on my phone not a tablet, ICS and move on with your life
the ICS build is still way on the Beta side for me... Until the ICS rom has video and sound working as good as the Stock rom, I really don't see the point.
I got the Fire to use primarily as a media device and it currently using the stock rom works quite well at doing that. I don't need a pretty looking tablet if media abilities don't match.
ok
thanks for the information, until the video, bugs and hardware accel gets fixed,
i will just stay on stock rom.
Yes, the video stuff that needs fixed is making me stick with CM7 for now.
Stuff I tested
Netflix - does not work
Qloud - does not work
MX Media Player - works but performance is better in CM7
YouTube - SD works. HD does not.
I know this subject has been beaten to death but with the evolution of all the different ROMs it is tough to try them all myself. I have a tmous Hd2 and I am looking for a rom with a few things that are becoming very important to me. My girlfriend and I are having our first kid pretty soon so my priorities are changing. This is what I am looking for.
1. A great camera.
I need it to be clear, fast and stable! No FCs or lost pictures. I need to be able to access it from the lock screen to be able to catch those really quick cute moments.
2. A good video recorder.
I need it to capture video's that you can see as clearly as possible with our phone. Also I would like it to be able to play them back on the phone as well as ANY computer.
3. A very stable phone.
I am out and away from home alot and I need to know that all of my phone calls and text messages and emails are getting to me.
4. Android based of course. That is why I am posting it here! I like the android os.
5. Not really as important but I would like it to be nand only so I can swap out the sd card whenever it gets full without worrying about loosing anything.
Everything else doesn't really matter to me. It could be plain old froyo for all I care just as long as it just works!
Thank you.

congrats!
any cm7 or miui gingerbread based rom that's not running sense

I have a very stable miuirom, but im not sure if the camera can be accessed from the lockscreen or not.. i cant remember the options..

Ok.. so this has probs been covered hundreds of times but hey
Touchwiz isnt my greatest love and want to move to cm13, the only thing holding me back is reading about camera quality drops when using custom roms, but is it a major drop in quality, i mean im not one for looking at pictures on the pc and blowing them up..
Has anyone got any examples of cm13 pictures..maybe even a similar picture from stock which they have
Anyway thanks for any help
The camera won't suddenly turn QVGA just by changing from official to custom.
I feel like people exaggerate when saying that the quality is worse.
You'll lose most of the features from the stock camera, but it's not like the camera will suddenly turn into a 1 Megapixel camera.
If you're a casual user, you'll be just fine.
I like to focus, snap and be happy with a decent pic..thats about it
Might go for CM13 official then, i spose if not happy come back to stock
I don't use the stock camera apps in AOSP or Cyanogenmod (when I was using it). Half the time the binary would crash so badly that only a reboot would fix it. So when using AOSP (currently using JDC AOSP 7.0) or Cyanogenmod I install a camera app that uses its own binaries. That eliminates camera issues in AOSP for me.
