As you all know 720P recording is now possible on the hd2 through windows phone 7. in order to get this feature on android builds updated drivers need to be included in android packages as well as a kernel that can support it. I am currently looking for help in updating drivers while i am working to stabilize some existing kernels. to any who can CONTRIBUTE please pm me and i will get back to you.
UP
Would be greatful as i'm sure hundreds of HD2 fans!
Bump
Why aren't more people bumping this thread?!
I would love to finally have the ability to record in 720p.
I really liked the 720p resolution on the WP7 rom. Cant wait to have it in android
That will be one of the greatest achievement for HD2.
Thank you for your dedication.
Yes! i hope it gets fixed!
HD2 does everything; note

This is more in response to the banner you have at the bottom of your post saying the HD2 can do everything "what's next..." and showing a playstation symbol.
Android has emulators galore! And PS1 games run very nice utilizing them. (You have GBA, Genesis, SNES, etc to choose from as well). Just note in case you didn't know.

yes.....i know it was simply a pun on the psx emulator -_-. Please keep this thread on topic.
am up for this!
Can't wait
Finally! Have been waiting for hd video recording to be enabled ever since i got this phone. Good to know we are close to getting it.
Bump!!! 720p video record... it would be amazing
woww.. i thought 720p cam impossible..but HD2 rulesss4ever!!!
When I tried the WP7 the quality was great but the focusing was aweful. It took quite a while to switch from close objects focus to further ones and the other way around too. I hope this can be improved too. I hope you find some help on your quest
PS. I hope you dont mind me using your signature picture as I quite like it and to be honest I wont give my HD2 for any other phone while I was thinking about selling it 4 months ago
While you're working on kernels, see if you can get Wifi Calling working using the wifi calling app from tmo USA.
ooh the excitement...
cant wait !

lol no problem bud! =) it is a great phone!
and as for an update for those following the thread, i am currently editing the cm kernel to try to make stable recording on MDJ ginger build.
If we get 720p recording to work...
There's nothing more to wish from our beloved device!
We can do everything and more!
If you compare the HD2 and the DHD today there's nothing that makes the DHD better.
On the contrary, it can more than any other phone outside there!

i will try as of now that takes the list behind 720p recording, mostly because there are work arounds for wifi calling via android ~android through tango, skype, ovoo, ect
How about starting a bounty for 720p recording as well?
I think it will motivate developers a little bit more.
And I know that it would be a success as well, remember how much money were gathered in a thread about a working camera in DHD builds a while ago?
This is the last border for android perfection in HD2, and we already know that it CAN be done in our hardware (WP7).
Hi All,
While i am really happy and i desperate to see 720p recording working on hd2.android, but personally 720p recording in windows 7 doesn't really look 720p, i feel the resolution is faaaaar less the the regular 800*400 recording..
which makes me believe if hd2 is actually meant to record 720P or is it just a bug in windows 7 that it says 720p when it actually doesn't!....
Hopefully , this can be a marker for anyone looking to get Skype Video Working.
So far i have managed to get Skype video working on all Sense 2.1 and 3.0 ROMS
i have run into issues with AOSP ROMS. I believe the issue is with the front camera being read at an inadequate pixel rate. try switching the resolution when in the camera app.
ALSo, for those that are running AOSP, SAVAGED,CM7 nightlys etc.. will you please post your ROM+KERNEL COMBINATION.
linked are the two Skype.apks that i have used
save
for space
signedSkype20047.apk
com.skype.raider-2cam.apk
App launches and runs smooth. However, when I go to take a picture, it freezes and sometimes reboots. Even importing a photo from gallery causes it to hang. I have auto-rotate and motion control set to off, and I have been using the Tasker + Ultimate Rotation Control workaround. Disabling the Tasker workaround didn't help. Since ICS isn't officially out for our phones, I guess the problem won't be officially fixed until T-989 gets its own kernel.
But if you have found a workaround to enabling the Instagram camera/import from gallery, please share!
I am having the same issue, oh well
It's a driver issue the developers are working on it
Samsung galaxy s2 almost ics lol
There was a update to instagram this morning, but im currently on stock GB rom right now. Has the new update fixed the camera issue on ICS roms?
What is soo great about Instagram? I d/l it but cant really see the value in in. Can some one please tell me the attraction?
i recently updated to 4.3, well ... from stock to aokp 4.3
snapchat video recording doesnt work. is anyone else have this issue?
anybody
yea man, same here. Tons of people are having this issue
There has been a snapchat issue for a long time.
The rear camera gives the toast "Video Reording Failed" whenever I attempt to take a video.
The front camera records video perfectly fine though...
I tested this on Gingerbread and ICS, it works on both.
I tested on jellybean (AOSP and TW) and it doesn't work
So I thought this may be an issue for just my device.
When I got my replacement phone, I immediately installed snapchat and saw that video recording failed on my new device as well (it was running stock TW JB)
But when I downgrade to ICS and GB, it works perfectly fine....
Does anyone have a clue about wtheck is going on? Does jellybean not have a certain patch for our device?
I'm not the only one experiencing this. There's many other reviews on Google Play for this device that say the same thing.
Thanks :laugh:

Not sure if you guys have figured out the problem yet but I have. I have found an older version of snap chat that works perfectly for our t989 phones, video recording works like a charm. Download the older version of the app here http://www.mediafire.com/?7py7jfbf809avey

I read somewhere that was a JB problem and the only way to solve this was to get back on ICS or put a older version of Snapchat! Your best bet is probably @iTz KeeFy link

Yea I'm currently running Kit Kat and the video recording still doesn't work for me, having to use the older version.

Ever since one of the Snapchat updates I have been unable to use the rear camera for video as well, since flashing CM 11 the front camera will record but only after a 10 second pause!
Thanks!
Downloading the older version of snapchat worked flawlessly. I can finally record videos!
Can someone on ICS or gingerbread give me a logcat of them recording rear camera video on Snapchat?
i found a fix and it works for me with liquid smooth rom. u just have to change the video camera quality from 720p to 480p by going to camera, video , video settings...
