B&B 4.0 and bug in camera storage - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Using the camera 4.11 included in new Tom's rom i noticed that the pictures are stored only if i take the photo in the normal camera mode.
In contact mode or other the camera seems to take the picture, but after i don't found them nowhere both in the main memory or in the storage card.
So associate a picture to a contact is impossible!
Someone in the forum noticed this bug or resolve it?
Thank's to Tom' hard work!!

Camera 4.02 (from Dopod 810) with External BT GPS , Work fine on WM6 !

Version 4.02 from Dopod work fine with BT External GPS:

I have installed this on SD without remove the original version (4.00).
Copy or rename Camera.exe.040c.mui to Camera.exe.0409.mui (or Camera.exe.0410.mui)
Configure on Setting GPSID (External GPS):
GPS Program Port = GPD8
GPS Hardware Port = (the port of GPS BT Paired ,ie..COM0)
Verify EXIF data with Picasa2.
TyTN with WM6 lvsw 20070315 .
Yeah I'm running that myself. It's nice to have the GPS feature. It also lets you take photos using the front camera as well as the back (finally a built in use other then video calls) though the pictures aren't great so I use the 2mp cam instead. Still nice to have it. Also, new overlay templetes. The only thing I need to change on it is reports the photo as being taken on a Dopod (gotta fix it to read Hermes or TyTN) - haven't looked - it was probably in the registery entries I imported and didn't even bother to look

404 - Not Found did i miss anything?
Hi guys at last some body talking about the camera, what I took notes about apart from the not a very good focus camera on the Tytn, I don't know if is a problem with the flash that is not synchronized with the shutter ,because if you take a picture ,has got the same light ,like it was before the high intensity beam that shine when some body press the camera button.If some of you gurus came have a .cab or fix were we can adjust the synchronization of the shutter with the beam will be wonderful.Thanks

When I choose 2nd camera on Dopod 838PRO, it will hang all times. How should I do? Can the new camera program version take photo by 2nd camera on Herms?

It did that for me too when I was trying to run it from my SDCard. When I replaced the internal version with it, it worked no problem. Dont forget to import the new reg settings!
The worst is this version cann't use FLASH Light because it's from D810.....
Anybody can help

haiya.. import the registry ma..
no strobe light function.
Hmm - never noticed - the flash is so weak I never use it - practically useless (imho). As a (lame) work around, if you really need a flash, you could use VJ canella to turn it on, take the pic and then turn it off?

I extracted the camera application from the latest Trinity ROM and it got several problems so I give it up. For example, Video function doesn't run and the photos taken with MMS mode are full of garbage. I believe that the Trinity camera is physically diferent to the Hermes one and the DLL's cannot be shared.
This version from Dopod got the same problems so I don't reccomend it. At least, if you use the files from the Trinity, you can use the flash.
The file is not working
I downloaded this file on 3 dif computers and they all say the zipped file is corrupt, is there something im missing?
Hi,
I’ve just upgraded my SPV 3100 with Camera 4.02, seams that something is wrong witch colors !
To get near to real colors, I must set contrast, hue to max setting ??!!! and the colors are far from those which I got in previous version of camera software.
BTW the sepia effect is BLUE ???!!! & it’s impossible to use front camera
Did anyone got similar problems ??
Is there somewhere “old” HTC camera software available ???
I prefer avoid of hard reset

If you have installed the 4.02 version on SD the previous version 4,00 she still works like before.
Simply launch the program camera.exe from \windows.
The two versions coexist.
BTW : Camera400.zip from LVSW 20070408.
I think it is not possible, coz vcandella uses driver/hardware to put light on, but at the same time is not possible to do this on two programs. you can use light with vcandella or with original camera application. try to use vcandella and run camera - I think error message will appear - hardware is used or something like that...

Yes, you're missing a normal archiving program. I'm guessing you use Windows' builtin "Compressed Folder" crap - it doesn't work with all ZIP files. Try WinZip or WinRAR or IZArc, the latter being completely free (I use it).

GPS/EXIF Camera Option WM6 - partly solved

since I've updated to O2-GER WM6, and enabled the GPS Option in the registry, it's not working any more as it does in WM5. I can take photos in that mode, but when I switch to it, the GPS is not activated as in WM5, and no exif data are available.
Anyone an idea?
Edit: I've posted a workarround in #7
Ahh it would be nice if this worked out because the lat:long on the old version of gps-photo taking in WM5 was broken.
Peter? Are you saying that it doesn't ind a signal so trips out? Have you changed any defualt settings for the GPS config? eg Com 4?
Also want to see the registry hack for this one.
Same settings as in WM5, and same registry entrys. I had hoped, that the lat/long buck would be solved, but the problem grows.
In WM5, you could see, that GPS would be enabled, if you change to that camera mode. - Flasching GPS-LED and runnig dots in the lower right corner of the screen during GPS.sync. That doesn't occur since WM6
The attached file is the WM5 registry entry !
Same problem here GPS photo mode do not work any more on wm6
the option is there but GPS does not work
This might be a solution for that problem
http://www.mobile2day.de/news/news_details.html?nid=11575
But it didn't work with my WM6 Orbit in the demo version.
I apologize that the Link shows only a german web site
Meanwhile I've found a workarround with the internal funktion.
The lat/long bug semms to be solved!
First I've enabled the P9 camera funktion.
When I start the camera the first time, a screen appears, where I am asked, where to store the images. It doesn't matter what I choose, but the 'don't show this message again' should not be marked.
When I now choose the GPS Exif mode, it works.
When I start the camera a second time, it wont work, if the screen where to store the images doesn't appear. So I have to choose the internal memory in the upper task bar. Closing the canmera and starting again, the desired sceen appears again, and the GPS funktion is working.
I've tested it with the O2Ger WM6
Hi can anyone fill me in here If I understand correctly you can take a photo in GPS mode.
I cant find this anywhere Iam still using WM5 not 6 so where can I find this capability, hope you can help..
Take the registry file, I've posted in #4, and add it to the xda registry, and in the camera menue is the GPS mod enabled. But ther is another bug in WM5, so You got a position error in east-west direction up to 1/2 mile
excuse me being stupid where is the registry i cant find it LOL
No matter!
The attached file camera_gps.zip in my post #4 in the beginning of this this thread includes the registry entry for WM5
What do you do with GPS embedded photos?
Hi guys,
I am able to take GPS photos with my HTC P3300. Could anyone please tell me what to do with them? Sorry for the STUPID question but can they be used as POI's for Tomtom? If YES, how?
Thanks for your help!
You can regard the place where You took those GPS photos in google earth.
These function is implemented in several pc viewers, e.g. irfan view.
I am with you guys so far but how and where do I paste it to . I cant find how to paste to the registry could someone help please
I imagine its easy and I am just being stupid but I cant work it out
Thanks
Thanks for your prompt reaction...
Is this the only thing we can do with these photos? I thought that we could use them with TomTom or other nav applications.... Please let me know. Thanx

You need a registry editor like Resco Registry
Go to HKLM/ Software/Htc/Camera/P9
and set enable to '1'
thats all
still doesn't work, i see the exifcamera icon in the setting of the cam and yes enabled the p9..but gps doesn't start. no blinking orange left led.
any updates fro wm6?
See my post #7. There I have described the workarround
i did it, but it didn't worked...so i tried it again.
i went with resco to the key and yes it was already enabled. so i put again 1 in de key and saved it over and damn NOW IT WORKS!
just one time till you turn the cam off (you can take as many pictures if you like), so as i understand it, everytime you want to do it you have to save the key again to use it.
Thanks a million dude, lets wait now for someone to solve it permenantly.

Well you also need to go in the camera settings and change the mode to "GPS Photo". Why on earth was GPS photo disabled on the O2 Orbit!!! They missed a massive opportunity there I think.

Yes, the problem is known...as photo contact bug...as GPS photo bug...but still not fixed!
picture in photo is saved only in high resolution...
Maybe B&B v4.0 only tested for TouchFlo by beta testers and Tom...
Hope a fix too in Tom's next rom. Or if you dont use Touchflo, you can use B&B V3.0.
Cheers

Autofocus camera for artemis

ok, i have the YuE v14 rom for a very long time, its the greatest rom from my experience, but today i discovered something which really bothered me :
I installed an app called Worldcard mobile which is a business card reader...but when using the camera to take a picture of a business card I discovered that there is no autofocus feature, so the info on the card were blurry and nothing could be recognized.
please help me guyz this is urgent..i love this rom...too hard to change the rom now, a differnet camera cab would be very nice, i dont care about the gps camera function...

the way you do it should be the right way ( accoording yo many others )
but with me it does not work ( several different rom's ) what does work is the camera it makes a picture and stores it in my poi but you can not get it in footprints. What i do now is take a picture with the normal camera ( so not the gps camera from footprints ) then in album i select set as footprint then it turns up in the footprint tap and then you cabn ad gps info etc with edit

at this moment Xannytech grid leo 1.9
same here, with energyrom 21877 and LIA v14.5 21882

[email protected]
I'd love to know the same thing b/c I can't figure it out for the life of me!!! IDK whats not making it work properly, rather odd and I'm surprised no ones figured it out yet considering roms have had it in it for quiet some time!! I hope this gets sorted out b/c I'd like to use it as it was intended!!
I've tried every work around and I've come up w/no solutions!!
