Full screen Camara (Noob question)

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.

VGA problem or something else

I am having some problem in my VGA display that is
Color pixels are seperated no smoothness. (like 256 colour screen) specially when watching a movie or camera pictures.
I may ot be able to explain it clearly but picture is not like it should be on such device.
Any help

Did u made ne recent changes to ur reg. or applied vga hack ?

Yes i did install a vga software but this problem was even before that.

Why dont u try that Oxios vga hack I read some where on the forum abt people using it try searching for it .

for OMNIA i900 users only !!!

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...

It's for PocketPC, so I'd just try. Only the resolution of the Diamond is different (well, maybe also camera drivers). What does it do? show the image recording of the front camera on screen?
In general, when you see a program is for PocketPC, it will work on most HTC and other windows mobile devices. Sometimes there's a restriction because of the resolution used (older programs often use 320x240, which doesn't look too pretty on the 800x480 screen of the X1), but most of the times they will work.
Like in 'normal' Windows there may be a restriction because of the type of program. Maybe you need .Net compact (newest version is often installed in X1 roms) or some program or driver. If that's the case, it should be mentioned at the download or info page of a program imo.
Some programs are written for a certain type of Windows Mobile (2003, 2003 SE, WM5, WM6.1 or WM6.5) and use instructions that aren't available on older WM versions. Usually you'll find such info on the info or download page of the program as well.
If you're not sure whether the program will run or not: just try . The chance it will leave your device broken is very small and again: if the program is that specific and shouldn't be used on another device, it is usually mentioned somewhere (for instance HardSPL and roms are device specific, but then again those aren't really programs).
Let's look at the program info:
Description :
Use this Make Up Mirror to make oneself up and when no real Mirror is available. The program activates the Front Camera and you see yourself. Only for HTC Touch Diamond and HTC Touch Pro.
# Image from the Front Camera, suitable as Mirror
# After closing and on starting the usual camera function the rear camera is active again
# For fast access the program can be laid upon an button
# Daily utilization as Make-up-Mirror
# Only for HTC Touch Diamond and HTC Touch Pro and compatible devices*
This program works only on devices from HTC and identical devices, e.g. HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Touch Pro, O2 XDA Diamond, T-Mobile MDA Compact IV and future devices from HTC.
System requirements:
# System: Windows Mobile for WM6.1
# Screen: 240x320 Pixel or higher
# Processors: Samsung, Intel® PXA XScale, StrongARM, OMAP, Qualcom
# Newest technology: Program developed in Visual Studio.Net.
Compatibility:
Pocket PC Windows Mobile 6.0
Pocket PC VGA resolution (fullscreen 640x480)
Pocket PC Square VGA resolution (480x480)
Pocket PC Square QVGA resolution (240x240)
Pocket PC QVGA resolution (320x240)
Pocket PC QVGA resolution (240x320)

The info says you need WM6.1 or above: check
you need resolution 320x240 or above: check
you can use a device with a Qualcomm chip: check
supported resolutions don't include 800x480, but this probably means that 640x480 will be stretched a bit or a black bar will be displayed. I think the program will still work.

why don't you simply use the Camera Application of you X1?
In the Camera Settings you can choose which camera should be used, Front or Rear Camera. Is guess its the same effect an you can save the Price of 2 Euro.

kaiser res

Hi,
What would be the benifit to changing the resoluition to my panel 2 screen to a higher res from 320x240 to 320x480?
can the device even handle it?
P.S. if i reflash the nbh will it erace android and will i need to start over?

remove
delete this thred i figured it out

Hey, would you be kind enough to post what´s the difference between them? cuz I have read somewhere that 240*320 it´s sharper on the kaiser altought 320*480 it´s a higher resolution (maybe because 240*320 is kaiser´s native resolution) anyways please post your results. Thanks in advance.

Got it in one, also 320x480 is not same pixel aspect ratio as 240x320 ( pixel aspect ratio is how 'square' the pixels are), there is a third option, which is a higher resolution, and has the same pixel aspect ratio as 240x320, this is 320x428 and if used with a density setting of 144 is quite useable, ( try it and see anyway ).

thanks, zenity!!!
