720p recording worthless? still pictures?

Im planning on getting the desire, and im REALLY interested in the 720p recording, but from the videos ive seen in youtube they look like like upscaled videos whats the bitrate ? 19-20 fps? also the audio is craptastic
What about the pictures? i HATE the pics taken by my milestone, are the desire pics any better?
EDIT: i just realized this is the wrong forum x.x please close this, im gonna open a new post in general discussion
The 720p are pretty good for me actually. When transferred to my PC, i can view it in fullscreen with HD quality.
Pictures taken without flash is great, but with flash...zzzz its terrible. Not sure bout others but it does suck for me.
720p video is still in progress and for Desire/ Nexus
with the new radio that came yesterday HTC have more
improve the quality of recording, Cyanogen and his team
working on raising the fps and video at autofocus ..
also be expected to improve the quality and the options
I can record it fine, with 20 fps, but I don't see much point in it, cause the lens doesn't give very high quality video that is really worth recording in HD

Yep,You should buy a new clas6 or clas10 card & install new radio
first instal new radio file from hire ,camacoder workin so smooth now
I used to think the video was garbage too, which is is from stock rom with stock radio. But upgraded everything, radio, modaco r8 and just tried it now (never thought it would make it better) and its fine.
Yeah, not on par with iPhone 4 HD recording, but still quite good. Its only going to get better with the modifications that are coming.

HTC One X Pictures/Video

Not sure if this needs to be in Q&A or here, it's my first post so be nice haha!
Just a couple questions that I wanted answering, as I'm planning to get the One X next week.
I've heard a few bits and bobs about the camera - both pictures and video, and just wanted to ask:
1) In general, are the photos a good quality?
2) Is there still a framerate issue with video recording? Does it make much difference?
Thank you!
I know they update the firmware etc, so didn't know if they'd fixed anything at all?

1) The one x takes superb pictures, the best of any phone I've used, and there was a comparison showing that it also out performs the s3 camera noticeably. There are a few threads with pictures people have taken.
2) I haven't noticed any framerate issues, but I haven't recorded much video. If there are any framerate issues it can be fixed with updates.

i doubt htc one x out perform sgs3.. i had gs2 before and what i can say.. sgs2 give a better performance in still photo and video. sgs2 had much more detail and give a higher bitrate in video. and now it's far behind sgs3.. just go check comparison article by gsmarena. also there is thread in here talking about HOX video quality.. just search for it..
guys..there are SuperCameraMod for the Sensation..talk to the dev and see him if he will work on it for hox or not

Thanks for the replies guys, all really helpful Just like making sure in my head all the little answers are answered before I take the plunge!
Thanks again!
The HOX takes excellent photos. From what I read lately as well, it is better then the GS3. The features of the HOX camera are excellent as well. For instant, the panoramic feature is flawless, compared to other phones with this feature, and to all of the panoramic apps I have tried from the market/playstore.
My only let down is playback of video after you use SlowMo ( yes it has a slomo feature ) stutters some times. It could be better, but nothing I think an update will not fix down the track.

Any who agrees HTC Amaze 4G has a better Camera?

Second day on my HTC One X, I feel its very good in terms of everything but Camera. I had an Amaze 4G before. HOX's camera is way too noisy compared to Amaze's. Does any one else feels the same? I have a UK model HOX bought off eBay. Please tell if i am wrong regarding the camera. It might be my personal issue. If you think that, please suggest any way to get rid of the noise. I somewhat experience it in the day light too.
Below are the two images one from HOX and other from Amaze. (Sorry for these pics, that is my hukka coal)
From left 1st one is from HTC One X and 2nd is from Amaze.
You can definitely see the difference of noise and resolution.

Lets start with the most basic question, did you focus correctly and did you hold your phone steady without too much movement?
Agree on some points that the picture captured with amaze was better with less noise. Had Amaze before SGS Note. Also, the dedicated camera button was excellent with Amaze for caps.The video quality was superb and lot smooth.
Good thing about One X is the shutter speed. The Full HD capture with One X is not smoother like Amaze also with less bitrates.

@Op,
Deleted my post as I don't want to start a flame war.
To my opinion you opened this thread in the wrong forum, start reading the forum rules.
Amaze, never heared of it, don't care neither.
This is HTC One X forum, and not everybody jumped from Amaze to One X.
The One X camera is garbage. My DHD took better pictures.

Let's not exaggerate, the One X camera is at least 400,000 times Better than that on the DHD (yes, intentional irony)
But, the DHD had a CRAP camera.
And the One X, has one of the best, albeit with too much compression.
Absolutely not. My One X pictures are extremely noisy, while the DHD pictures are nice and crisp. The DHD pictures are far more superior, its not even close.

Tip, change ISO to 100 and make a picture during daylight with your HOX.
Bye bye noise.

yup its a well established fact
Ok so people agree on the noise problem. I wanted to hear that. I thought my phone problem. Did any one try the HTC Amaze 4G Camera Application on HOX? I am not rooted currently and not willing to do the same until I figure out a way for bad photos, then i can decide whether or not to sell off HOX. Please can anyone do that for me?

Uhm.., try my tip on post # 9 and show us the facts later. :laugh:
I like to see a lovely noisy picture during daylight.

I know it's not even close...
the DHD has an Atrocious camera.
While the One X puts out very impressive pictures, crisp clear and vibrant, while being realistic.
Are you using the camera right? You aren't holding your hand over the lens are you?
no problem with mine, no noise for me, but I do know how to take photos with a camera...

If that's really the case and you're not just trolling, either you have a faulty HOX or you are completely clueless when it comes to using the camera. I've come from a DHD to a HOX and the improvement is staggering.
We have enough existing camera threads. Please use on of these instead of creating a new thread.

HTC One X not as good as One S's camera?

Since both devices have the same HTC ImageChip DSP, they both should perform the same, right? Apparently no. According to PhoneArena, "The HTC One S takes slightly oversaturated photos with good contrast and amount of detail. The colors are colder in the case of the One X, and it has more accurate color representation with white balance a bit off in some shots." To me, the shots look better on the One S. You can check it here: http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/HTC-One-X-vs-HTC-One-S_id3005/page/3
Any idea how to improve the one x's cam?

Hi mate, I havent heard the One S is better before, but shall take a read of that link.
But I have asked this question before, and didn't get an answer. (NOT HERE ON GOOGLE!)
I wanted to know, surely theres some tweaks etc you can perform to get the most out of the camera, but I'm no means a camera nerd and havent got a clue what makes a picture better, apart from MegaPixel and ive been told thats nothing to do with quality, just how big you can blow it up.
Anyone have any tips for improving the HTC One X cam?
**edit** : looked at your link.
I definately agree the HTC One S pictures are alot better. What gives?

Thanks mate, taken a look but I'm not on a custom ROM :/
I think im going to HAVE to root my device soon, once I get over the nerves of no warranty !!
Actually, I do know for sure that this is due to crappy JPEG compression. (You can use a third party app like Camera Zoom FX) But still if it is because of that, and the One S is using the SAME camera and software shouldn't it be about the same?

hi dudes...i had htc one x 1 month ago...i install any hq mode & other camera app...problem is not just about detail...it`s about pinky shadow...bad color balance..& dark & pink cover over all photos...in low light or outdoor light...there is no mod that can solve it..it`s hardware problem...i have htc one s now..& must say that it`s powerfull cameraphone...& results are same as iphone 4s & xperia s & better than galaxy s2 that hi had last year...

A few questions about htc on m8.

hey guys, i am a current lg g2 user. ie a very good phone but i want to upgrade because a few things that bothers me and i want to know if m8 have the same problems too.
for me m8 is one of the best of 2014 one thing that i didnt liked is that isnt waterproof, but i can live with that.
i wanted to buy a xperia z2 but the overheating problem and crap recording audio in concerts is a big deal for me.
and about gs5, i prefer to stick with my g2, and g3 is not an option for a few reasons.
so, when i go in some concerts i like to record a video or two, in my g2 the loud music almost ruins the video, i want to know if i can trust m8 to do these recordings.
and what about the speed that camera can take a picture? in my g2 i just cant take a picture of something fast moving, m8 have the ability to freeze something in a pic?
thanks.
