Camera distortion problem,

Hi Guys,
Twice now, when I went to use the camera the display was distored as though I had applied effects or incorrect gamma settings. This fixes itself when left alone but this is unrealiable.
Has anyone else had this issue? and if so is there a fix or is this a warranty issue?
Many thanks
Howard
Camera picture distortion
Only for a few seconds- or maybe just a second or so, it apperears as if the camera software is a bit slow adjusting gain when the application first loads.
Regards
Michael
I wish, unfortunately, this lasts for days. Everytime I use the camera app it's the same.
Do you know of a way to completly reinitialise the camera?

Hard reset your device by pushing on/off button (top left) and pinching the softreset at the same time

Blackstone Camera slow taking photo

Hi , does anyone know how to improve the speed for taking photo on Blackstone? I am not sure that is caused by camera setting or Blackstone is bad performance to take photo. Once I press the button to take photo, it needs to take few seconds to shoot. Hope anyone know how to improve it. Thanks!
I haven't tried it but it seems (to me) to be focusing when the delay occurs. Switching to manual focus should make it quicker.
I think Kanburra is right. For me, photo taking has been immediate with no delay whatsoever. Perhaps it is because the conditions in which I took those photos allows auto focus to work very well and quickly. Perhaps the auto focus may have problem in certain situation which could be better handled with manual focus.
manual focus? what's he methode?

HD2 Autofocus problems

Hi all,
I've had my HD2 since around Christmas time and I love the device, but I've always had a problem with it's camera. This is not the usual "Pink cast" problem which I know is well documented, but rather a problem with the autofocus. Sometimes when I'm just playing with the camera it works fine, but most of the time (usually when I really want or need to photograph something) the camera cannot focus. It TRIES to focus, I can hear the lens moving and the image on the screen goes from very blurry, past the point of focus, back to blurry again and then the camera takes the photo blurry. It seems to be able to focus on my hand or anything else I hold very close to the lens, but anything else and 9 times out of 10 it will not focus properly. I've found that usually if I reboot the phone it will work for a while but then I've missed what I was trying to photograph in the first place. I was wondering if anybody else has experienced this problem with their HD2?
Here's a few points I think are worth mentioning:
The handset's ROM is the standard one that came installed when it was new, I have never upgraded it or patched it (I know there was a patch for the camera but as far as I was aware this was to try to fix the pink cast problem, correct me if I'm wrong).
The problem occurs in all lighting conditions.
Touch focus is enabled but touching the screen results in the same problem, it tries to focus but fails. I feel that this is very likely to be a hardware problem but then on the other hand, why would restarting the phone make it better if it's a hardware fault?
Any help, input or shared experiences will be very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi all,
I've had my HD2 ...
Click to expand...

Hey i have the same problem! i wanted to send my HD2 in to get it replaced but they said it was a software problem i dont really think so tho.
It would be really nice to see someone dev an app or a new rom that fixes this problem.
If i hear anything i will post what i know.
Hi,
excuse my poor english.....
I had the same problem with original italian ROM (1.66) until this summer.
On my device I have two applications that can increase the picture sharpness (BsB Tweaks, XTHackBeta2).
In these apps I enabled the "increase picture quality" but my pictures were always blurred, especially when there was plenty of sunlight.
I tryed to contact HTC Costumer service, they told me to have an hard reset but it did not solve the problem, also without no one applications installed on device.
It might seem stupid but, after that, I cleaned kindly but strongly the camera glass and I set the resolution camera to 1 Mb, making pictures and check how autofocus was working, then, step by step, I set to 5 Mb on camera configuration with Super fine quality pictures.
And I disabled any increasing picture quality on every apps (BsB, XT Hack)
It could be a miracle but I had never had the problem of autofocussing and pictures became very detailed and brighted
Same problem for me. Have a german 1.72 t-mob ROM.
Reducing the picture quality is not a solution for me.
In my case the problem occurs every time I try to make photos of any documents inside rooms, but with good light conditions. I need about 5-10 trials to make one well focussed photo. It's equal if I use autofocus or not.
If I go outside I can make very good photos from some natural objects, even when they are very close.
I enabled camera Superfine in BsB Tweaks.

[TEST] Camera Auto Focus, your help needed.

Hey guys/gals, while chatting about the constant autofocus on the camera yiancar suggests we try other camera apps.
He installed "fxcamera" and said it has an autofocus toggle. And suggested I try it.
So I download and loaded it, selected the normal camera, it started autofocusing even without tapping the screen or selecting the autofocus toggle.. Making that focus clicking sound.
His does not... I remember there being mentioned somewhere that they were having issues with quality control with the cameras, don't know if this has anything to do with it.
So if you have a chance, could you please download "fxcamera" and test your camera's autofocus and report your findings here? (mention if your unit does or does not auto focus click constantly, which model, and rom version you're on)
Thanks in advance!
Hi clockcycle
My camera does the continuous autofocus only in difficult light situations, for example in a dimmed lecture hall. When I have enough contrast in the picture it just perform the autofocus when I moved the camera/tablet. This happens with the standard camera app and I also tested fxcamera - the same result.
Can you find a light scenario where your constant autofocus stops?
stefan
Hey all!
I normal only get one long autofocus unless light is really low (very similar to strahl actually) and fxcamera makes no difference (with autofocus turned off and on)
Thia is from an Adam rooted and running utopia.
Please excuse the awful spelling on the above. I'm too new on this forum to be trusted with the edit button yet!
hi CC,
Just want to report to all that I m using EdenX 2.4 rom which is based on latest NI rom 040811. And in this latest rom NI has fixed the constant refocusing of camera issue. I have tested it and camera stops refocusing after few seconds of delay.
now some hacker/developer might want to take on this.. to help us..to get a toggel switch in camera app for manual and auto options...
@clockcycle I would second whatever strahl's mentioned. Seems to work the same for me too.
On a separate note, one bloke in a thread at tabletrom opened up adam, disconnected the auto focus motor of the camera and he's put up a video after doing it. The camera is now fixed focus and works well for him.
I report 3rd then as someone whose camera will keep focusing in bright areas such as a classroom or when pointed upwards towards any lights.
I can also report that while pointing into dimmer directions the camera stops auto-focusing.
While I think that opening it up and disconnecting the wire is cool, I don't want to have to do that to mine.
What files/drivers work with the camera, can we not just replace the ones that are in the working updates with our current roms?

front camera terrible quality?

has anyone else experienced extreme face smoothing on their front facing camera (pictures)? I rarely use my front facing camera so I don't remember if it's always been like that ever since I first had it. i do know that it's been like that for a very long time that's y i seldom use it. its ruining the whole experience when I do need to use it at times. It's like an extreme fuzzy smoothing face beautifying filter. It's on auto mode and I've tried all three resolutions/photo size. .. Still the same annoying filter like disaster.
I just need confirmation that it's normal or maybe I need to change certain settings.... Or I just happen to have a bad defected camera on my phone. Thanks
