Camera Gingerbread Sense - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hey,
i use this rom : [03 APR] imilka's Gingerbread Sense v0.4 [Des S][Sense 2.1+Android 2.3.3][K:raf1.9]
And how everyone knows, the camera doesnt work.
Where is the probleme with the camera in sense, it is the kernel ? can we change it ? maybe one from an other rom ?
Or it is a problem from sense 2.1 ?
Can we use a kernel maybe from CM7 or any other rom ? or it dosent work ?
Thanks Basti

its sense i think, its a drivers issue
if it was as simple as changing kernels then it woudl be working but it isnt that simple

But at the dhd gingerbread sense and camera works.
and at 2.2 with sense as well at hd2 gingerbread too.
it is so difficult to fix it ?

I think it is a question of the HD2 does not recognise the camera.The dev said something about having to change the libs,which is a BIG job

thats NOT hd2 tho, thats a desire hd which would work because its been created for the device!!!! show me a hd2 version with a working camera and gingerbread, there isnt one yet
the drivers are different and by the sounds need decomiling to find the differences and then recompiled for the HD2

Hey in my posting i wrote that ginger and camera working at dhd i dont wrote about hd2.
But my first question is about the hd2

But why the camera from a desire s build works on a dhd and we cant use the informations about this for the hd2 ?

Because they both use two different camera modules. evident from the fact the dhd uses a 8mp camera whilst the hd2 uses 5. hence with two different camera modules, you'll need prolly two very different camera drivers. So looking at the camera driver for the dhd helps, but won't solve the problem.
Plus the desire hd and hd2 are two completely different devices, they use a different gpu, cpu, camera, screen, speaker, NAND, ram, everything. Each using a different set of drivers. Just because it works on the desire hd doesn't mean it will easily work on the hd2.
Anyways be patient, software isn't made overnight. If it was, it prolly doesn't even work.

Thanks a lot for your answer
I will hope they fix it soon.

Android programming + Camera access

Hi, i was wondering if it is possible with current Android builds for the HTC HD2 to access the Camera with full resolution? I was reading that on some builds the Camera does not work and on some other builds only with 3 MP...

you're way behind now.. a lot (if not all) builds have the fully working 5MP camera now.. and recently, even the evo based builds has overcome the camera flash problem.. try mdeejay's build if you're into sense and bangsters on non sense builds.. those two are my favorite.. and yes, they have the 5MP camera support..

[Q] best android based rom?

hi,
i was wondering, now with all the android roms beeing published to xda
i'd realy like to know which rom is actualy the most recent, or the best, with the least errors and best to work
and another thing,
is it possible to delete windows from my phone and let my phone start directly from android, to avoid the long boot time?
@natihorny - Here's a link to TechBurrow's thread. There is a video/ links for what you need to do to flash your phone with Android and have it boot up directly to it without dealing with WM. I've yet to do this, as I'm still at work, but plan on giving it a try in the coming days.

I would suggest that you dont use NAND builds yet they are far from perfect but instead you should use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847631 it is motomans black and blue build wich is by far the best sense android build even much better than any ram and nand build and as for winmo flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893438 and it will boot android just as fast as any nand build and you will never have problems with this setup
this is a very, very subjective thread. there is not "best" rom--it's all about what you're looking for in a rom. for example, vanilla froyo vs. desire vs. desire hd vs. miui vs. gingerbread. or sd vs. sd ram vs. nand.
personally, i'm a proponent of sd ram. i haven't actually used it long term, but it seems to be very fast (and based on darkstone, it's even faster than nand). especially with nand being very young in its development, i would stick to sd for now. plus, it's much easier to flash and fix in case you corrupt your rom somehow. there's a few out there (just look for "[SD] [RAM]" in the descriptions), but one i'd like to point out is darkstone's superram froyo. i'm kinda busy right now, but that's definitely the rom i'm going to be using and modding to my liking.
good luck and have fun flashing!
ok, thanks everyone for the helpfull answers,
i had still one other question and thats,
i just bought a new car with bluetooth function, though my cell phone and the bluetooth of the car don't connect like it should, (thats why i wanted an android with the least amount of problems) and i was wondering if the fact that the bluetooth is only visible 120 seconds may cause the problem.

The build you are speaking of is the desire hd. I didn't suggest that build because it is laggy and slow. Even after 10 restarts and 2 days of use it still laggs alot compared to the one I posted in B4. Take it from someone that has tried every build available the motoman build is BY FAR the BEST after you get over all the HOOPLAH over the new htc sense wich is cool i'll admit but the coolness wears off after about 2 days and your just stuck with a laggy non responsive HD build. now others will post how good thier HD build works after hours of tweeking and reading and tweeking and reading. But trust me you will go back to the motoman build after you try the hd for a few days
@ wrecless
thanks for your view about which rom to choose, i'll do as you say, since you realy know what you're talking about, and i was hoping you tell me whenever a perfect rom from the htc desire is out?

I installed the darkstone build and had problems but I cant remember exactly what they were. In my opinion the motoman build was just as fast and had no problems. I'v been trying everything just because i want something different but I always come back to this build nothing out there seams to work as well as this one and as for the nand builds they are all RMNET. So untill I see a working PPP build I'm going to keep using this SD build
Why hasnt a mod moved or deleted this topic?

I had no problems at all with darkstones super ram builds they worked very well for me everything worked fine ppp wifi ect, i noticed darkstone froyo was a bit faster than his sence build but its still very fast
I tryed Motoman's build and found it very nice, but am having problems with wifi and market, I think there may be a fix for these but ive not had time to browse through the forum as of yet.
I really like JNF Android Starter Xtreme you recommended its funky

Not sure one can find a perfect build ( or mate for that matter ), but I do have some info collected that others may find useful in the link below. If anyone can find a build with everything working, please let us know.

[Q] Camcorder in Sense builds?

Hi,
after searching it seems that only pre-gingerbread have proper working camcorders.
I'm guessing camcorder apps won't help?
I believe most gingerbread builds camcorders do work, but not in full 720p, only up to 480p

Yup. Gingerbread Sense is currently under development so the camcorder is not working fully yet. Some have lags too.
So, getting another app from the market won't help?
How about other builds? Should I bother testing them?

If you want to use HTC Sense builds and have a solid video camera, I'd stick with Froyo and Sense 2.0 for now. That said, I think we're all going to have to wait for the Desire Gingerbread source code to be released, before the video and graphical glitches can be completely fixed on our HD2's running GB Sense 2.1 or 3.0. Moreover, it may be a while before the source code hits the street, as the Desire GB update just came out.

Oh, ok.
So that implies that senseless GB builds have working camcorder app. Downloading a cam app won't help sense builds, right?

Actually, from the NAND and SD GB builds (with or without Sense) that I've tested, the camcorder has always been slower and buggy compared to the HD2 Froyo builds. That said, the Sense builds have a working camcorder as well. Albeit slow and buggy, with or without third party camcorder apps.

Camcorder issues are kernel/system files related not app related. they can't be fixed by installing another app.

[Q] camera issue

I have gone through the Q&A's threads so if any 1 can direct me to a link or an answer I will be very grateful
with every rom I try i notice that majority of them has a camera defect where the camera takes the picture after the flash goes off which results in a darker picture....is there a cure for this?
Don't have this problem on typhoon rom with lgcamera app
oo ok thanks....it was mostly with the roms that uses HTC Sense 2.1 or 3.0
Try a non sense ROM you will be amazed I used to use only sense ROMs got over a year but I really don't like the new sense 3.0 ROMs because of the camera problems and the graphic glitches so I switched to typhoon 3.6.0 I really live it, it is just so much better the only thing I had to get used to was finding some good widgets for replacing the sense widgets but they are out there so its a much more stable choice and faster and the camera works like a charm

i really like the graphics with the sense roms...but i use my camera more than anything else, guess i can't have the best of both worlds

[Q]720p playback lags fix for Sense Gingerbread builds

Hi everybody, i need a fix for the 720 playback because it's laggy in nand sense GB and i can't find a fix for that but if you know where i can find it i'll be very happy
Thank you !
Sorry bud but there is no fix for that, it's one of the last remaining issues with the GB Sense roms at this point. The given consensus is that it is a driver issue and until proper drivers can be created (unlikely) or ported from the Desire (possibility) then that's all you will get.

Is there a way to record videos in 640x480 resolution without lagging?
No no one has a good camera fix for.sense gb builds... I wish to see again the quality of my hd2 record like with win mobile 6.5 in android builds
Hm but I am wondering why the cam is working with the boyppc release smoothy:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16270840&postcount=3
I tested it!
That's sense 2 and is froyo
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Is there no date, when the cam is working with sense 3 as well?
Well there is a new kernel being worked on from the Desire GB release and that may or may not solve our issue. As of right now no eta
