[camera-patch]SONY BRAVIA engine experimental patch - Acer Iconia A500

I got this on my LG optimus X2 and it makes beter pictures.
So I tought lets share it with A500 and G100W users so I made a flashable zip.
WHAT IS BRAVIA ENGINE
Please before you use this make a full NANDROID backup.
It is a here for you but don't shoot me if you don't see any difference in picture quality !
I made a patch that installs the famous sony bravia engine on your tablet , it makes your pictures look beter in my opinion.
EDIT:30/1/2012
(and it can be my brain fooling me)
As users say this is a galery filter so the impact on your tablet picture won't be big , compaired to my phone I can confirm that this is not much or even no difference on the tablet.
Here example , same light , same time , same objects , same distance.WITH FLASH
DEFAULT A500 camera engine.

I think the Bravia shot is stronger , same result when I don't use flash. Let me know what you think.
Download here if you want to test it yourself:BRAVIA PATCH
Flash patch with CWM.

Not quite sure.
Will need to take some fotos, with different colors.
But Thanks. I see a slight difference. Just not sure which I like better.
Need some more greens and reds. So I'll check it out.
Thanks Civ!

Yeah , I should have taken pictures from a greater distance , there you see a better improvment. On my Phone the difference is bigger.

I thought Sony Bravia Engine just a ''filter'' for the gallery to bring up contrast and saturation?
Or does it have affect of the camera too?

If I put pictures on my PC I see difference so it effects camera in my opinion.
But like it says, on my phone it is big difference but that doesn't mean it will for you.
Tablet isn't made for high quality pictures anyway but even if it is a little better that's OK for me.

Ok thanks for the info , in the last few days I noticed that on my phone it is a big difference compaired to my tablet.
On my pC must have been a placebo effect my brain , that is what you get when you look to long at a picture , Will change title in thread that it is not engine but really a filter.

Xperia X10 vs HTC Desire Video Camera Test!!!

Take a look at this youtube test Video youtube.com/watch?v=BYnTR-BGNHU[/url]
I for 1 am lucky i went 4 my x10 can always get the new updates and a gr8 camare
X10 is so much better
sharper, more vibrant
Better fone all 2gether
Yes video playback and picture quality is definetly better, but I feel overall Desire does seem to function better and with less bugs.
X10 looks better, screen size to my liking but too many bugs. Potential to be a cracking device but not quite there yet, where as Desire works better out of the box.
Hmm, curious how you have the same traffic passing at the same time in both those videos.... ;-)
It could be two persons, each with one phone ? If you look at the angle's and positions you can see that its not the exact same video...
itz the same person holding 2 phone in 2 hands...........
HAHAHAHAHAH...... thought that was obvious.. apparently not!... Yeah.. X10 camera rules..
My wife has X10, i myself have a desire.
They could at least have cleared the lense on the Desire, and maybe tweaked the settings at bit... ;-)
Alltogehther, X10 has at better camera, but the films we have made havent made that profound difference.
Biggest downside using the deisres videocam is the awful sound- its really crap.

SGS Camera APK on Nexus S (for panoramic pictures) possible?

Hi, does anyone know if it is possible (or if it has been done) to have the SGS camera apk run on an NS?
I would love to have the panoramic capabilities
e.g.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeBrIcVWDrs
Cheers, Steve.
You can download & install the Photaf app & it will do the pretty much the same thing. I did this attached panorama shot with the Photaf app -seems to work just like in your YouTube video. I kinda rushed this example (thus the noticeably different sloppy shades), but if you take your time, you can make it look really good too.

Hi and thanks for taking the time to respond. I've tried that and its not bad at all ... but ... though not elegantly displayed in the clip, the sgs apk does it better and there are other features of the sgs apk that I would like.
Anyone?
+1
Plus I also noticed there is no way to zoom in the stock camera app for nexus S
Covered in the stickied FAQ.

Q: Can we port SenseUI/Galaxy S apps to the Nexus S?
Most likely, no. Those apps typically require the Rosie/Touchwiz framework in order to function. You can have those apps when and if a developer decides to port those ROMs in their entirety."

This is a question for a specific item.
Fingers crossed, someone a lot cleverer than I feels the need for this & gives it a bash.
Ta.
Yes I would agree this should NOT require any other framework, because you can port the sense/rosie camera apk to a normal rom also...

Didn't that stop working once we moved from 2.1 to 2.2?
Which is another thing to take into consideration, since the US Galaxy S devices are stuck on 2.1 and we're on 2.3... might not be compatible, even if you could port it over without the TouchWiz framework.

EDIT: uploaded preview without resolution fix
I'm downloading the Arc's system dump right now. Apparently, the Arc's launcher is surprisingly good and fast. Will let you know if I get it running on the Desire.

i've tried this: http://www.multiupload.com/2YETWLF218
Only Home.apk, in the first post i've uploaded the preview on Desire without resolution fix
It's really smooth, but the interface isn't as good as many other launcher's.
Nice to see that it works anyway
just tested it out, like the little animations but nothing really special.
Looks nice and works good can someone make a better port with resolutionfix and the other sony arc apps ?
Thnx

I find the Arc launcher very good, better then launcher pro or the gingerbread ones... Would love to see this working in the correct resolution! Is someone capable doing that?! Certainly hope so...

I don't see what's wrong with it...
The buttons below are normally on one line for start. Further should the home button looks like a house. Also on the left there should be an arrow I believe... just search for it on YouTube..

[Q] Low Quality on CyanogenMod 7.2

Hi, I'm using cm-7-20130730-UNOFFICIAL-totoro and i'm having one problems with it, its about the Low Quality Image, my Screen looks like a low quality GIF image.
You can see how low the quality is on this SS:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So my question is: How fix it, and if is there a new update to CyanogenMod 7.2 that fix it.

Hmmm coz the libs are ported from low quality device so the quality is low! Maybe percy has a fix in his upcoming build
but that ss looking normal for me. or that just me that never see better device?
