Hermes WM6 Camera, Zoom doesnt work :(

I have XDA live 2.0, and i'm trying to use the camera feature on my phone, and in the standard camera mode, the zoom feature doesnt work. is there a fix for this, or could somebody point me in the latest version of the xda, or the latest and most stable release of WM6. There's a new version of WM6 every week, you guys cook roms like crackhead cook crack. If there is a fix, could somebody do me a favor and send it to my email, ( [email protected] ) if not, its a-okay.

I believe that if you have the phone in 2.0 MP mode, you can't use the digital zoom, however if you drop the resolution down a bit, it will allow you to then go all the way up to 8x zoom.

Thanks for the help, i have the same issue, but with WM5 too.
Zoom only works with resolutions lower than 1Mpixel for me, using WM6 LVSW.

That's in the HTC Manual! Zoom only works for the 'S' (small) resolution setting in the Tytn. WM5, Wm6, Photon.... you won't be able to zoom with 1M or 2M resolutions

Nothing like read the manual
but this info isn't in my M3100 from Orange manual.
bad translators from Orange Spain doing so bad manuals...

The HTC camera is crap,
what is the point having a zoom on low res images, it will make them worse than what they are.....
Bad Design imho,
Maybe I should release another version of Black 2.0 as well (No Camera Policy) for work professionals that are not allowed to use camera's in their office buildings. This version will have the camera application and all drivers removed from the OS which then does not violate the policy.
Cheers,

yes. = 8x Zoom [M] = 4x [L] = 4x
cannot zoom with [1M] & [2M]

Camera upside down after installing i-nigma software

Hi all,
I'm having a problem after installing the barcode reader software called i-nigma on my Artemis (WM 6.1 ROM). The camera app is showing the image upside down! The image is in the opposite direction than the GUI. And when I take a photo, the image is stored upside down, too!
More people has this problem after using this program. This is a comment from the Freewarepocketpc.com i-nigma page:
william wrote on his mobile ...
first I have the htc touch I cannot scan online barcodes at all and it screwed up my camera after the hard reset my photos are now all upside down and I cannot zoom in without the picture repeating 8 times on one photo making it impossible to see what the picture is of any clues on this issue, as the drivers for the camera are not available at all

I bet it's some setting changed in the registry. Any idea?
Thank you in advance.

Pictures on Google Earth

Hello,
Can anyone advise if there is a way taking a picture on your camera and then having it display in something like google earth/google maps so it shows where the picture was taken from?
Cheers

yep, theres a function in the new camera for the htc (im not sure if theres just a .cab to install, yyou may have to flash a ROM) and then in the camera, theres an option for something like a location picture, along with image, video, panorama etc.

All you need to do is activate GPS photos using HD Tweak no need for the new camera

I've enabled the GPS option on the photos but how would I get these to show on Google Maps? Any ideas?

[Q] Gallery replacement (Like Resco Photo viewer in WM6)

Hello,
I'm using the last OpenDesire ROM..
I don't like the default Gallery application for many reasons :
- really laggy... bad quality..
- Privacy ! :
User account authentification information
Full internet access
Manage account list
GPS localisation
Geo-localisation
For an application that just show pictures, it is too much...
Can you tell me what is in your opinion the best market (or not) gallery/picture application ?
Thank you for your help.

i am also looking for the same. the default google cooliris gallery looks great but is so slow that one feels like seeing the pics. haha.. just joking. anyone knows about a gallery app like htc gallery?

No one can help ?
Or is there a way to remove "internet access & co" from Gallery 3D ?

is there no app for photo gallery other than the stock cooliris app by google????!!!!!

I have the same issue and same thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=772753
I've found b&b gallery. It's very basic. I didn't satisfy with it but you can try.
