[Q] Desktop Screenshot Problems - Xperia Play General

Hi, i had the Xperia Play (800a) for 2 days now, it's rooted and with busybox. Today i was trying to take a picture from the phone desktop with PicMe, but the image was very bad! Like a transparent image with a pink or red color.... I try ShootMe too, but i obtained the same result. The last effort was making it with the PC with the SDK tools (ddms) but the same result shows up.
Bad photo

Anyone with the same problem?
Can anyone help me with that? or just tell me what's the problem?
Thanks!

I can’t believe there is no way to do a screen shot with a stock phone. What the hell is wrong with Sony? It is so easy on the iPhone.

Not used it myself but I see lots of people using MPE to take screen grabs.
I'm rooted so just use a screenshot app from market.

try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12701006&postcount=3 just connect phone in usb debugging to pc open the asm.jar. Worked for me

I just use screenshotit

I've used screenshot with proper results. Still, it's a bit stupid to have to root the phone in order to get a screenshot. The Galaxy S, for example, allows you to do without.

I am not a fan of having to root to screenshot.

Ok, thanks for the answers, i try Screenshot It and it works, but it's not a free app, so i really don't want to pay for taking ss of my phone. Screenshot works well too, and it is free. I'm going to try the asm.jar solution today, later i tell you if this work too.
Thanks

Please explain.

"ScreenshotIt" and "screenshot" are two different apps.

@ Logseman & @ matknny . Use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12701006&postcount=3 no need to root and if the screenshots colors are wierd you can just right click on the screen > adjust color

I have my phone rooted and I can use DDMS, but thanks anyway

Mozza2k11, thanks for this unrooted tip

very cool.
thanks
very nice! I've been looking for this for a while. I'd rather have an independent icon on my taskbar than one replacing the start icon, so this is a great replacement for ArielBattery. Thanks!
Great idea, unfortunately does not work on my HTC Elfin.
Can someone host this somewhere other than ziddu? I can't connect from work (not sure if the site is down or blocked).

Thank you, good sir
awesome! love it.
It doesn't show the number in my P535. The icon is actually changed.
Not working on Samsung i760. Tried both cabs, the numbattery didn't do anything, the QVGA one changed the icon to a solid white one, but no numbers at all. Is there a configuration file to change or something?
Also, it wiped out my background picture of my today screen. Had to set it back up...
does not seem to work on my verizon touch pro
Did not work on my Treo 750 with WM6.0
after installing cab and restarting, I had a second battery icon (that looked like your original from the picture above, vertical lines), but no numbers.
Thanks anyway...
lol... working on polaris... thankfully
Does not work on Samsung Epix (i907).
Why does the thread opener has been banned?
If i´m right, i think he had "stolen" the battery-icon-gauge from another forum-member, and posted it her as his creation.
Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424926
Great it worked in my TyTn II. Thanks for your effort bro. I am loving it.

Question about Camera app

Hi, I was having a play with one earlier - and it appeared that when you take a picture there is no way within the app to see the picture you just took? You have to exit out and go into gallery?
Is there a way around this? Ta
There is an list of latest taken photos on right side... You can even expand it & then it shows all files in image-folder...
Take a look:

Thanks, I thought it strange there was no way to do this. Buy the model I was playing with (three uk branded) definatly didn't have it - must be different rom versions?
Thanks anyway
Remember that you can flash a normal non-messed up rom from the dev section,
like my orange uk version, is now a on the global rom minus the orange bloatware

If you swipe the thumbnails to the right, they will disappear... if you swipe from the very right edge of the screen toward the centre.. they will come back!... same with the menus on the other side (but in reverse!)
Is it possible to remove compression from our phone? Try to take a picture and the size only around 700kb when i use 8mp setting.
you can use vignette off the market - but in the tests I've done it doesn't really improve the image quality very much at all.. and actually in some shots I preferred the stock camera's results.
yeah, i like the result of the stock camera apps. But when i transfer the file to my PC and zoom it, the quality still not too good because of the compression. that is why i'm trying to remove the compression.
Wait for my MOD once we get root
I will add photo preview too
Is there any way to have multi shots option???
To press camera button and take 3-5 pictures in a row...
I miss that capability....

Yeah but pray that we get root before the SGS2 get it, I will not keep a phone without root undefinitly

Picture Slide to unlock

Hi all,
I was wondering. I would like to see an unlock screen with 6 (or 9/12) small pictures/icons in random postions. The user can make up a small story so he would know in which order he should slide/swipe to the different pictures to unlock the phone. Also a nice feature would be if the usere could pick the pictures which would be displayed on the lockscreen. The position of the displayed pictures/icons should always be random to ensure security.
Is there something like this out there for android??
Regards, RR69
I think it's too easy and fast to solve. Why not a lockscreen with something like this to solve?

9505g wallpaper out of box

I just got 2 new 9505G's for me and my wife. Out of the box they had a simple blue themed wallpaper that looks kind of cool. I unlocked the bootloader on my phone which of course reset the data and for some reason defaulted to one of the live wallpapers, while my wife's is still on the blue one I mentioned before.
I cannot for the life of me find the blue wallpaper as an option on either phone (even on the one where it is actually being used). Any ideas where this file is stored?

Okay great! I know how it feels to want something and not get it! Glad I could help. Found it on google.
I take it back, that is not the right image file. It appears similar but it is of a lower quality with weird rendering artifact bands across it. No offense to the guy who posted it, but if anybody else still has any ideas, I am all ears.
I found it by searching inside the stock images in the 9505G development forum.
It is buried inside framework-res.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\default_wallpaper.png. Seems pretty stupid they would make the default wallpaper something the user can't select again once he's changed it.
I put it online HERE.

[Gallery] Disable Photo enhancement?

Hello people. Is there any known solution to how to disable automatic photo contrast corection in stock gallery app? Its really anyoing, especially when you edit your photos yourself and then gallery change it anyway. Maybe its just about to change some value in apk file? Could someone please look at it? it would really help me, thanks people

first i didnt know either, i was wondering why some photos looks so weird, too much contrasted even i knew that i the light condidion was good, then i noticed, when you press edit in gallery, the gallery disable enhancement in preview, look:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
sometimes the pictures are to much colorful compared to original, it just makes the photos look bad. Now im using piktures app, but i would like to stay with with original, but i cant yet.
PS. Maybe you havent noticed the feautre similiar to Qualcomms "Assertive display", you can read about it there https://www.qualcomm.com/news/snapd...ay-power-efficient-technology-thats-easy-eyes , huawei has it too, its useful and interesting
but dude this looks like when you press edit it THEN applies somekind of effect. not until you press it. or is it.. well ill be damned.
just saying maybe it doesent DISABLE it when you press edit, maybe just than it enables some kind of effect.

nope, when you look on your pics with another gallery app (im using pictures) you can clearly see diference, i tried quickpic too, no difference, huawei used some kind of weird "enhancement" to theri gallery app, i dont understand why...
