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.
Regards
u sure ure doing the right thing? Zoom only works when ure in 'S' mode (HTC Tytn manual). you can't zoom in 1M and 2M mode.

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,
jas
yes. = 8x Zoom [M] = 4x [L] = 4x
cannot zoom with [1M] & [2M]
I use coolcamera, it can work!
whats cool camera?

Just got my new xda2s, and wanted to know if there was a patch or something to make the camara full screen like my old xda2 in capture and video mode, or is that just the way it is now.

Is there no way to make the camera output work full screen and unlike the xda II the zoom doesnt seem to work.. or is there something been done wrong?

To zoom you must reduce the resolution of the picture in manage picture settings (bit of a scam really)
i too would like to know about the full screen camera function like the old xda's cause my mate has one and i prefer that better to the small screen version on the M2000
Yeah, bizarre that, there must be a registry hack to allow the zoom to be used in standard capture mode? Mine works fine in video, but not in photo mode!
I must admit that when I bought by Blue Angel, I didn't really consider the camera other than to note thats its only 640x480 - there are just TOO many other toys to play with. But after having used it a couple of times, it would have been nicer to have a higher resolution, zoom etc, but what the heck, this is a PDA/phone, not a Nikon
All I do to get a "zoom" is crop & resize the images in paintshop pro before printing them.
I need camera update software for Asus P525, wich I can get more sharp pictures with my pocket. I think that, mda vario II have in camera integrated software, wich after photo shot, automatic sharp photos.

I don't think there is such (extra) software...

the only problem i see with the p525 cam is that its a bit slow to take videos but the camera itself takes quite sharp pictures even better that nokia 2mp cams out there

i notice a bit blure!! in original the camera software.
1. i cant say it blur because the software make the picture in this way .
2. you can get sharp picture by using the ateksoft coolcamera program(without auto focus and without any other blur or what ever you call it)
3. Videos is a nightmare at night or low light conditions with asus p525 ,in day like its ok 15 fps . but there is a solution for better video quality and more fps at day and its by using coolcamera.

hi
plz ppl with omnia answer these questions..as many ppl wantto get this phone it would help all of us knowing some interesting questions about it
1)does real vga work on it
2)is there an issue using programs especially games on it
3)have you tried opera 9.5 if so how does it render
4)is the 5mp camera as goodas nokia n95 camera?
5)can you post some screen shots so we can get a better idea of the actual resolution
6)hows the gps functionality??
plz answer as many questions as you can!
thanks
1) the screen is WQVGA so that means Wide Quarter VGA, so no... it's not VGA
2)because of the wierd screen resolution (400x240), games tend to only work in landscape mode... if you try to turn them rightside up, the buttons won't work on the touchscreen (they're messed up)
3)haven't tried opera...
4)in my opinion it isn't as good.. although it has more options with wich to play, it's kind of laggy (you press the button, you wait for the autofocus and then it takes the pic) - but maybe if you fool around a bit with the settings you'll get better results
5)i'll post pictures made with it and some pictures of it tomorrow perhaps
6)the gps is actually assisted-gps enabled and it works pretty good... i even got gps signal inside (and not near a window) - iGo 8 works fine, so does navigon and garmin, haven't tried tomtom route66 or others...

I have tried ateksoft and got it working, you have to have a connection to activesync and input your ip into the settings.
From sucessfully connecting it to msn/skype you get around 3fps (on low res). I'm deciding to buy a webcam instead
when i tried it i got pretty good quality o_o
i would say better than my webcam but i forgot how much fps i got

I was pretty disappointed to see the slow frame rate, good thing webcams aren't too expensive!
Shouldn't it be possible to use the same quality as the video recorder?
I used "Ateksoft Web Camera Plus v2.0" and it worked perfectly with the orginal rom
hello
Is there any way to improve the camera's zoom?
it can improve a rom?
photos are very nice but the zoom is not clear and very weak
B.R.
Dont think there is a way to do that. If you want good zoom probaly better off with a actual camera

The short answer is no. Your phones camera, like most smartphone cameras only has digital zoom. This is essentially the same as cropping an image using photoshop or some other photo editing software.
If you want to be able to zoom and have crisp photos, the only option is to buy a camera with OPTICAL zoom.
As a rule I have found you are much better off ignoring zoom on your camera completely, and editing it later on, and if you do use the digital zoom feature, use as little magnification as possible.
Any software updates/changes could the algorithm slightly, and in my opinion, it rarely makes much difference, and being Sony has a digital camera/SLR arm (they also bought Minolta a while back), I would suspect they have tweaked for quality already.
I ask because I previously used the desire hd and there was a very good zoom

DHD camera is not as good as arc in the first place, and the zooming function make it worse..
I had a DHD with 2.3.4 rom and zoom was very good and clear
Take the photo and zoom afterwards with a pc or an app if zhe zoom of the cam isn't good enough for you.
Arc has the BEST camera on a mobile phone...

I agree that digital zoom is not as good as optical but it has its used on the Xperia ARC. You will actually get me details zooming in than taking a full size picture which you enlarge later on.
Try the following to test this, it will only work on motives close by. Place a book 1-2 meters away from you. Take a full size picture and then take a one where you zoom in on the book. You will actually be able to read the text on the book on the zoomed picture while the enlarged full size picture will show the book as pixelated and it is difficult to read the text.
There is no difference on motives far away between the zoomed picture and enlarged full picture.
I am not sure why the objects close by contain more details when zooming than enlarging a full picture. My best guess would be that SE has some logic buildin on the photo chip that on the zoomed picture correlate pixel readings on the sensor and not just cropping and enlarging the final picture.
Please let me know if you experience the same, I am very puzzled that the zoomed picture for objectives close to the camera contain more details than the full size picture.
