Camera on WM5 fix

Hi anybody,
I have gone through the forum and found no luck on how to fix the camera after installing the WM5 on my XDA IIs (Everything works fine after intalling the final patch except the camera).
Or the question should be, is there already a fix for it?
I can open the camera apps, however when I want to take a photo/video and try to click it can't capture anything.
Any help is much appreciated. Thank you very much.

did you install the camera fix patch fromt he wiki??
cos i used that and that worked a treat! 8)

Me to. I have sendt several MMS messages with my own pictures.

Thanks very much for your speedy reply, I have played around it and found out that for me to take the picture I need to press the enter button on the keyboard screen, which is quite not normal. Is there any tweaks or button fix so I can restore it to original setting?
Thanks again and more power to this forum..... :lol:
Regards,

thank you very much

WiFi On/Off Link Fix (Work Around actually).

I stumbled across this in the Universal WM6 Forum.
I can't take credit for it, Szilamer is the creator of this neat little fix.
See the original thread here.
I simply modified his cab file to include the signed dll (so it will auto start on our Hermes) and added the settings for button size and location.
You need to install both Cab files and then restart your device.
This will be embedded into WMXL v0.30 but I didn't think it was right to make you guys wait once we got it working properly.
Enjoy....

Finally!!Great work, like always..

wiki updated.
(lol like a hawk!)

Hey, thanks for scouting this solution out for us, man!
Good luck tomorrow on the house transaction. Always lots of fun, those.
Best regards
Ben
EDIT: Not just scouting it out but getting Szilamer to tweak it for the Hermes!

sweet! Does the job perfectly

Excellent! I've been looking forward to this. It works like a charm

I think you and I were on that thread at the same time. Excellent you got it to auto start.
Good luck with closing and hope all goes well. Right after they give you the keys, run

Thank you it works great in LVSW Rom, only that it appear over the old wireless manager link.. great job.

great work

thank you very much
only that it appear over the old wireless manager link.. great job.
if you know how to move it to left side,so be cool

The placement is by design (the link it covers does not currently work in WM6).
If you really want to move it then read the original thread, it explains what registry keys to change.

After install the 2 cabs, reset, having fun turning on & off wifi, I'm experiencing a weird problem. The phone felt into deep coma if I turned on Wifi then put it on standby using the power button, the only way I can turn it back on is do a reset. I remove the cab and the problem is gone. I tested it several times already. Anyone else have this problem?
btw, I'm using the LVSW Edition (2007-03-20).

Same ROM, exact same problem... soft reset only solution.
If not a problem on ROMs other than 320LVSW, maybe conflicts with new 'wireless manager' bubble?
Cheers

Same problem on Black v1.2

I changed the xpos to 7 in the registry and it's now on the left side of the bubble.

So this was the reason for hermes freezing on LVSW (20-3-2007).
I removed cab.
I have thought that it was the reason of the rom.
Thank you, Passenger!
By the way...the best position for me was x=6.

Freezes
Hmm, that's strange.. It's working great with suspends on Universal.
Does everybody have this problem with freezes ?
(Even with WMXL version?)
Anyway there is one more method to switch on/off wifi .. (with the help of ossvcs.dll)

Try to search for an applet called "Soft Key Applet" here at the forum.
With this little app you can set any application under the soft key you want, you should be able to set up a file also I guess, but I'm not sure, cause I never tried it before. Just install it on your phone and give it a try. If it doesn't work you still can uninstall it.
Let us know how it went...
Good luck mate
Sorry mate, didn't realise that you were looking for a HARDWARE BUTTON solution My English is just not good enough. So I think my suggestion wont help you any further

Thanks in advance.
And have a good day

Cheers guys....
You change the repeat rate from registry
\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\RepeatRate default 8->4 (or less)
Had no probl. w. double tap to zoom in Opera. You can check the Opera setup with about:config from your browser

Hey, thanks for your speedy reply!! if it were not for people like yourself my diamond would be a very dull device indeed!!
Right, I changed the repeat rate and tried from 4 to 3 to 2 right down to 0 and it seems to have no affect on my problem...for example, on my older builds, if i repeatedly pressed '.....' it would input the dots for however many times I pressed the button into my text, even if it did take a few seconds to catch up...now wen I write a text or somethin, i have to wait until the last letter I have pressed is on screen before I can enter a new letter...if I type too quickly, it misses out loads of letters until it feels ready to recieve a new one...before I could just type away and I always knew it would catch up with itself and remember what I had pressed a few milliseconds ago!! now I can repeatedly hit '.......' and only 1 dot will appear on screen! i have to wait a second before I press '.' again! same with backspace....i used to be able to hit backspace repeatedly very quickly and delete a whole load of text, even if it took a second to catch up, now I press it several times and only 1 letter deletes!! I have to wait a few milliseconds to press backspace again before I can delete another letter! very very tedious!! any ideas??! its really buggin me, its ruining the way I text and email. its not just the dots or backspace...every letter is the same, so its basically impossible to type quickly... I've tried another keyboard 2! 'fingerkeyboard' which is really nice and looks great, but it does the same thing!! last build (6.5q) worked fine and the same way as my original 6.1 rom.
Also with opera, I had alook at the config options, but could not see an option to enable double tap to zoom! I dont suppose you know a registry tweak for that aswel do ya??
Looking forward to your reply!
Kind regards
Ben

Can any1 help??! is no-one else that upgraded to Bsb 6.5.1 A/S finding that texting is slower??! its not just the keyboard tho...I notice even when I'm scrolling in Opera or through my list of programmes, I flick my finger quite fast (Like I used to on the other roms) yet the screen does not keep up like it used to!! It gives me the vibration feedback on every finger stroke, but only scrolls if I move my finger abit slower!! someone who upgraded must have the same problem??! plz help..there must be a registry tweek out there sumwhere to increase the reaction speed of the screen..??

Why the double topic???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562469

i think it was a problem of that build so you wont be able to fix it until i update the rom... but you know... my diamond is at SAT so be patient

Cheers
Sorry about double post!!! tried to change title but accidently just made it as a new post! I'm going to try and delete it now if I can!!
Makeveral- Thanks for your reply!!! As long as I know I'm not the only one experiencing this issue and at least I know that nothing can be done at the moment!! Like I said before, I think your Roms are really great and I love this new version so much that I dont even want to revert back to the un-finger friendly versions, so I think I will just wait for your diamond to get fixed and for a new update to come out!! I think I can handle it until then!! Have they said your diamond can be fixed then??? your not upgrading and abandoning your precious diamond quite yet??!
Anyways, cant wait to see what new tricks you have up your sleave! keep up the good work and thanks again for your reply and putting my mind at ease!!
Cheers
Ben

Well, for your sake, I hope they cant so u can get the upgrade! I love the feeling of a fresh new gadget to mess around with!! for all of us who rely on and love our diamonds to bits, I hope u get it back so u can carry on making that great rom!
in the meanwhile, can u suggest a version of your rom that doesnt have the screen problem I mentioned, yet still have those nice finger friendly menu's? or maybe another rom by another developer that u can suggest?? I would really appreciate ur advise...u seem like u kno what ur talkin about! lol
Cheers
