[Q] USB Camera Flash - Captivate Accessories

Is it possible to build and attach a Led Flash to the USB port?? As anyone tried this?

I'm sure it's possible... personally I rather see a option for a forward facing camera to be added via the usb... but that's just me.

Meh there have been a few occasions where flash would have been nice. Not a bad idea

or someone could build a usb attachment that on the front has the front facing camera and on the back it has an led light for the original camera jeje

the have a mirror that attaches to the phone and acts like a front facing camera. its kinda cool because you can remove it. it you only need a ffc every once in while its awesome. just youtube front facing camera mirror

Can you provide a link to that youtube video? I did a search and too many unrelated results were displayed.

And it would have a working GPS receiver.

Just attach another smartphone to the USB port and we're good to go.

Any way to reverse front camera?

So when I look at myself using the front facing camera it looks right. Then when I snap the picture it flips. On my EVO it did not do this. I looked in the settings to see if it was something I could change but I did not see anything. This is really annoying to me.
Am I missing it or is there a workaround out there?

The flip is to adjust it like a mirror.
Have you not figured it out?

Do you have to come off like a douche in every thread you post in?

What? My previous phone did not do this. I just want this phone to exhibit the same behavior.

The front camera shows a mirror image, but when you take a pic it takes it as the camera sees it, so you are actually taking a self portrait.
IIRC, the Evo would always take a mirror image with the front camera.
So are you saying you want to take a pic with your front camera and see it as a mirror image? The camera won't do this that I can see, but you can easily flip the pic with the photo editor app that comes on the E4GT.

Why do you want such a feature? O_ o.... that makes absolutely no sense to me, when you can just take the image you took, and flip it with any or current pic editor, i understand that you might want it automated, but..er.. what i don't get is why would you want such a feature lol.
Look for my fixed camera in the apps and themes forum. The international galaxy s2 has this as an option. The zip I posted will give you what your looking for.
This bugs me as well...

Thanks.... Your modified camera fixed it! Also, like that when selecting the focus point, the flash lights up to capture focus. I didnt see that feature in the stock camera but its nice for taking a picture in dim lit areas where it can be hard to focus.

Front facing camera inversing photo?

Does this just happen when you take a picture with the front facing camera does it vertically flip the photo meaning the inverse? Thanks

Naturally, it's the natural image that camera takes the pictures. Most of cameras have the function to reverse the image, so the final image shows the objects just like what you see. If the image from your camera is inversed, then it means that something has been changed on the camera option or intentionally not reverse the image.
Very old camera shows the image like that...
I changed no options is this just something the device does?

Which app? do you mean Stock Camera app?
[Update] never mind. I just tested it out and found the issue in here.
The stock camera does not reverse the original image even it shows reversed image on the screen.
So, one step missing on front camera app. This should be fixed on next version....
During the time, if you need to reverse the image, there's a workaround. Go to the photo editor and select the image taken from front camera and apply the 'reverse' by clicking the arrow icon heading left side....
Thanks very much just making sure because I was like why is the image flipped!

Does anyone has problem with camera while using skype?

Whenever I video call someone on a laptop using his 2mp webcam, the video quality is so low though I have everything maximum. The reciever sees me bad and I see him bad although we both have a very good internet connection.
Might there be a problem with my front camera when video calling or is there something missing?
Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance.

Yes, the front camera is fixed focus. It's broad but it's fixed. And it's only intended to be used at arm's length.

[MOD] Panorama 360 Camera Mod (SENSE)

I found this in the ARHD threat.
It enables the Panorama 360 in the camera app. Works great for me on ARHD 30 (stock kernel).
All credits go to the original developer.
Flash zip though recovery.
Make sure you backup the original camera app (better safe than sorry) and enjoy!
Download here: https://db.tt/ZmuWlA9h
confirm working with SD v 9 ULTIMATE r15
I guess it would be better to include link to the original post
Thanks hit
Anyone else having issues where the little blue rectangles start drifting away? Maybe there's something wrong with one of my sensors (gyroscope, compass)?

Panorama 360 only works proper if you hold your phone in landscape mode.

I'm doing that, but the little rectangles just start drifting. It's weird.
just installed this and tried it out.
It let me take all the photos but when it tried to stitch it together it was a total mess.
