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

Hi Devs,
would it not be possible to increase the power of the camera on the HD2 (android)
there was a similar possible for windows mobile I think that increased the resolution from 5MP to 8MP

Good camera sw +autofocus for Jade

Hi everyone, do you have a cab with the latest and greatest camera sw with autofocus which works with Jade? My wife complains about poor quality of the pictures and I was appointed to search for a solution.Thx in advance.
does she use the maximum capacity of camera? I mean 3M.

yes, of course.
the ideea is first to have the autofocus implemented, since the current camera sw which is coming with the phone seems not to have this feature. Thx for help.
a. am inteles. incerc sa fac un rom si eu momentan, si caut idei, sugestii, etc .
AFAIK, autofocus is a mechanical feature of cameras...
So I don't think any software will be able to provide autofocus, unless Jade has it but HTC did not implement it, which I doubt...

Buy a phone that does what you want it to do, don't imagine you can magically make one you buy do everything you want it to.

Yes, focusing is about the movement of the lens, so it is merely mechanical.
Anyway, the Jade camera can still take pic in acceptable quality if:
1) there is sufficient light source (eg outdoor under briight sun-shine)
2) keep sufficient distant from the objects (eg 1 meter or above)
3) keep your hand still as you can when taking photos
when people speak they should know about what they are speaking or stay quiet!!!
unlike what everyone said here it´s not just a mechanical question it´s also a software issue because i inserted a htc touch diamond camera on the htc jade and no autofocus function was available with the camera but diamond has autofocus and you know what pictures with jade lens here actually better.. so instead of speaking without knowing you should be quiet!!!

My fello Jade users. Video recording is not only dependant on programs used or storage size. Foremost it needs a reasonably good "lens" specs and jade does not have that. .. get a vidcam..

Dear azahidi,
I had a HTC Touch (elf) before with aweful video recording quality. After I installed Coolcamera the video quality got improved alot. Unfortunalty Coolcamera is not supported on Devices with qualcomm CPUs
It has nothing to do with the "lens" ... at that point you are wrong!

Yes.. may be. I guess the lens in Jade could be the same spec as (and could also be used in) those vidcams producing HD videos.

5MP Camera on Android

So I was just wondering if there are any fixes to the camera on Android to make then 5MP. I know that the XTarantulla build has a 5MP Camera but I can't say the same for darkstones or dan's. Or at least I didn't get it. Also, I was wondering if there was a fix to make it 8MP like how we could go into the registry and edit it so that it was superfine and stuff. Just wondering. Didn't see anything about it here on the forums so I thought i'd bring it up.

First off, they are working on it.
if you can successfully find and pull the camera drivers from the XT build and put it in another congrats.
as for the 8MP, that's just silly. the camera only is a 5MP, it can't be set to take pictures better than the hardware is capable of
cyanogen rom by shubi has 5mp camera. it has proper flash exposure (no full white pictures) and camcorder with flashlight.

Maybe not up to true 8MP, but improvements can be done in software.
My old HTC Wizard's camera sensor is 1.3MP, with a scaled res. option for a pseudo 2MP mode.
Yes, it is not true 2MP, but an extra option over the standard 1.3MP.
This was done 4 years ago, why not now with our HD2?
Just my .02.

Is there any hope that we might ever get 720p video capture?
Theoretically both the 5MP sensor and Snapdragon chipset are adequate, so is there any hope for HD capture?

on robsbay.co.uk is stated that 720p video recording is already working, so that is great news

I've been without an HD2 since mine broke a few months ago, been thinking of buying another HD2 to dual-boot WM and Android... if we can do HD capture I'm definitely buying one!

This is nonsense ...you can make it 20mp if you want in photoshop but you will lose quality. Ex there are 5mp cameras that are taking better pictures than a 8mpx cameras, the result is important!

The 8mp superfine hack in wm rom development has already improved picture quality, as side by side comparisons have shown, it's not true 8mp but the difference was noticable. The camera is capable of slightly more than its spec.

As I said, not true resolution, but an option available on a device 4 years old.
Something like that can be done for the HD2 also as an option, being aware
of some quality loss.

I thought all that did was reduce the compression, and the HD2 had huge issues with the camera in WinMo underperforming to start with, any of the improvements used in WinMo brought it to a standard your getting in Android already.

From looking at photo's I've taken previously in WinMo (With those teaks) and Android, Android comes out the overall winner, those tweaks for WinMo simply give you what HTC should have given us out of the box in the first place.
Android does not seem to suffer at all in the camera department, at least not for me anyway.

Android or Winmo for best camera results?

Merry Christmas everyone!
I'm using v1.72 WWE stock ROM but I'm considering venturing into the world of Android for the HD2 as there seems to be lots of development that is tempting me.
The camera is important to me so can anyone tell me what their impressions are of the quality and options on Android builds in comparison with stock ROMs? I find the stock ROM to provide usable results although in party environments the flash washes the images out and they are often blurry. V3.14 is better but as I wanted other people's opinions.
ON android the camera quality is not as good as WM, in the registry change the camera value to:762929 and you will have 720p quality photos.
BTW my flash works perfect on Wm As well.
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
720p on camera? W.U.T.A
Anyway...camera on wm makes better quality photos, especially in daylight

Best rom for make photos?

What do you think guys, wich is the rom for the best photos?
I talk about camera drivers / colours etc..
Thank you!
You need to check it one by one.
To see is to believe!
Ciao,I think you can try typhoon 's cyanogenmod ,in my opinion is one of the best roms.You get almost the same quality with every rom,this one has the touch to focus function.If you need to take high quality videos,instead i think you have to go for a wp7 rom,cause we can use the 720p hd recording function under this os

Try Tytung's nexus ROM. It has a camera without lags and it is has a good quality
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
The best ROM for us Italians is the XB CM7 DEV VER. 21.1 ZIP ALL IN ONE, the image quality depends from the hardware and not from the software.
