hi,
I have this problem with my desire - camera does not focus in far distance.
More detailed info in my previous thread:
"htc desire camera problem" (I'm not allowed to post link in here - ****)
I've tried to flash rom but still no changes, so I decided to replace "camera module" - its now available on ebay.
My question - does anyone tried to replace it or maybe someone has some kind of manual how to do this.
Thanks in advance.
I remember once having a compact low end digital camera, and on the 'high distances / landscapes' program it did not ise autofocus... maybe it's intentionally?

It is basically a software that manipulates the colour rendering ability of pentile display, i think it would be wonderful if it works for our device as nexus one is similar to desire.
It is an excellent idea and I hope the dev can post here so we can further test for his development and provide feedback. However, currently that app just FCs when you tap 'Enable'. OTA HTC 2.2 with root.

+1 for this app. I wish someone could make this work for the desire.
Working fine here. (CM6 pre rc1 from 23rd of july). Flashed the zip which gave me a better calibrated screen then installed apk -> I can change calibration values as I want. Too bad I don't have a colorimeter.
Hi all,
Facing a problem with my gps 'n' hope you can help:
When launching an apk like AugSatNav or IOnroad, the gps signal keeps cutting and remains on searching.
Only when heading back to normal navigation, the signal comes back....
I think the link is the combination camera+gps (since A/R), but have no solution.
HTC support simply indicates that there's no problem with my gps, great help....
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers

Hi, 've seen tt quite some people saw the post, but no reply....
Does it mean that I'm the only one having this issue???
For info, i'm now rooted, will another ROM solve my problem (this one as well as linking a bt keyboard)?
Txs ;-)

Won't hurt to try another rom with the correct radio might fix your problem

Thanks, any idea which should do the job? Revolution (i like sense), or cm7?
And is there à 1-click like the ace hack kit?
Saw something with ROM manager and titanium back up (for installing all apk again), but i'm no hero..... ;-)

I would go with a CM based rom as it is the only one I have seen that will work with a BT keyboard.
No there is no one click rom install but with enough reading it is very simple
Finally dared. ... and flashed cm7. Indeed via rommanager easy !!!
Bt. Keyboard ok (yesssssss !!!!), but still facing same problem with my gps /camera : as soon as i have a signal and launch either iOnRoad or AugSatNav which needs the camera, the signal gets liste.....
Any idéals? Would be strange that DHD doesn't accept A/R......
Thanks in advance,
Cheers

Hi Dutch, I have the same problem, I'm trying to video my cycle commute (sick of being near-missed by cars). None of the apps I have tried will allow GPS to work while recording video. Daily Roads states the following, which is the clearest description of the issue i have found [at dailyroads.com/voyager/issues]
"GPS issues on the HTC Desire HD - a GPS fix can not be acquired, or is quickly lost. There seems to be a camera/GPS conflict on the hardware/firmware level in this phone, as all video recording applications affect the GPS signal. Suggested fix: disable GPS in the app's General settings (feature available only starting with version 1.6)."
Not a great help, I know, but at least an indication that there may be nothing we can
do! As my first post I'm a bit wary of noobing the bosses (having watched their very funny video - everyone should have one!) I will poke about a bit more. let me know if you find anything!

Note: there is an older thread on this where dailyroads have posted a test apk. I don't think it works and there is no indication of further activity
Thread is
[Q] Are GPS and videorecording compatible ?
Hi, txs for the thread indeed. Txs to Robert found a walkaround being the usage of an external b/t gps.
This works (at least for me).
By the way, no realistic answer from HTC: don't use third party apps, just the preinstalled htc ones and you won't face problems .....
Cheers

Anyone find a better fix for this issue?
Hi, my GPS also had issues than i used the app GpsFix
and than it worked a lot smoother for me. But I only tested it on the original 2.3.3 rom without root.
The issue is not that gps does not work but that it will not work while the camera is on.

Hey there XDA!
I have been flashing multiple roms and etc from XDA for the last 2 years, but I never needed to ask any questions. Today, I flashed Virtuous Quattro and my camera isn't working and I can't seem to find any info about this in the ROM-thread and I'm not allowed to post there yet.
The rom looks awesome, everything works, except the camera.. Though it should work, I think I'm not having the right kernel for it, but I can't find which kernel is good for it.
Does anyone now how to fix this? or is this kernel-related? My kernel is: 2.6.35-14-MDJ-AOSP-v5-gef05671 -dirty [email protected] #6
Thanks peeps.
The latest kernel always comes with the build so it's not that. In case you haven't noticed all ICS based ROMs have camera issues. The camera on RC3 works, not great, but it's ok for bow. You should wipe properly and read more

I think it's my camera-user-data conflicting. I'll try.
I had posted a partially working camera on Lords ICS rom and I would post here for ya but I am not near my computer. The camera still has glitches but it doesn't open with a black screen anymore.

I have been flashing multiple roms on my DHD too and I have sold all the different issues till now - after flashing Virtuous Quattro my camera isn't working (opens with a black screen); also, I can't load any of the HD videos (even on awesome Dice player).
May be this will help.

Virtuous Quattro and all ICS ROMs at present have issues with the camera and HD video playback. It's because the devs don't have official ICS camera drivers from HTC to work with, which makes it really difficult.

Thanks to chrsada and sashank
There is a new post in the developments section for a fix of the camera for RC3, check it out
Credits to youngd24
Virtuous Quattro RC3 has a camera bug of the black
screen until first first snap. Here's the fix.
Steps :
1) Get Root explorer, then go to system/app
and make a backup of the old camera (just in case).
2) Replace the old Camera.apk with the attached Camera.apk below.
3) Edit the permissions. Check Read for all and Write only for
Owner.
4) Exit and Reboot.
i refer to the post by kkrazzyyguy
the poor thing that when i used es file explore , i chose category to system application, i saw nothing !
so my question is
can i copy his attachment and paste over? i worry will be getting prb after..
Yes just paste it over, it works fine after that

Just a quick question?
Why isn't the camera working?
OK I know it might sound like a stupid question but what I'm trying to get is what's behind the problem and how far off are the devs?
Missing drivers, incompatible code...what?
i hope there will be some more working camera at RC4
Check out Angel Cam. Its free from the Market and has no artifact or glitches at all. Also, if you only need it for basic recording, videocam illusion (also free in the market) works to replace the camcorder.
I'm also getting the black screen when using the camera, but luckily I have camera zoom fx which works fine. Loving the rom though by the way.
Hi Guys, can any one help me? It was working fine 2 days ago, But it stopped focusing at all.
Does it relates to any physical damage to device as my device slipped out of my hand 2 days ago but i am not sure that it stopped working at that time.
Hmm...you didn't give us enough info.
Are you on stock ICS?
What app do U use. ( stock cam or something else?)
Try to install some other cam app from market, if focus works at least you'll know it's not a hardware issue.
If U're on cyanogen mod, the focus problem exist, it's already confirmed.
But only on video rec.
I suppose U checked settings and you're not using infinity focus... If so then change to auto or something diferent and then try.

Just got my htc 820s, I am from malaysia tho.
Realise my camera app is different from what i see in youtube. I realise it is not the HTC CAMERA. It dont have so much features like manual professional mode and the split capture etc.
Does anyone know why is it so? I tried finding the HTC Camera on the google play but it says does not suit with my device.
Help pls.

The same thing is on my htc desire 820 s... but in my friend's phone its entirely different.. we can change it by changing stock rom... i think so.. i think we both are going for the same thing... i am also looking for a good sense rom.. my whole htc rom somewhat looks alike stock android rom
