Does anybody know how you can add more frames to Camera on the HTC S620. Ive just come back from holiday and when I was using the Camera for a few "fun pix" I was greatly dissapointed in the lack of choice... basicaly it only had four week frames to choose from. So as soon as I got back I went about getting some more frames for my phone.... which I found, but my phone cant find them. Ive already tried adding a "Frames" folder to "My Documents" both on my phone and the storage card but yet the phone doesnt recognise any of the frames. Anybody else have this problem or even better can anyone else give me instruction on how to get it to work?
if anybody wants to know the Camera Software im using is the Camera for Smartphones version 4.52 that came pre installed with the phone as I dont want to be having more than one installed.
Just out of curiosity, what's a fun frame?
I knew the camera software on the Dash could do "effects" like sepia or negative. Never heard of the above.
I am in the same boat, what exactly is a "fun" frame just wondering?
oh, I assumed all the HTC S620's had all the same basic software I wasnt aware that Frames wernt available on all models.
What I mean by fun frames is like Magazine Covers which you select and take a picture with the frame on top of it.
The four that come with the BT ToGo version which I have is one which has two magazine covers on (you take two pictures and they get put into the frame), a cartoony spikey frame, one which looks like a notice board with two pictures on and finally a folding frame that holds three pictures...
the problem is that they are too specific like the memo on the notice board say "I love you" on one and "happy birthday" on the other... and the three way folding frame has love hearts on so it isnt like you can use them on any occasion.
...Picture Themes, thats what they are!!! Mabey I would have got more response if I posted under that.
Yea this is a ROM specific function. I remember having this on my T-Mobile SDA. You could have images pre drawn on the screen with a spot in the middle of the screen so yo could take a picture and use the template around the picture. For example: i had one that was a template of bubbles, snorkle and face mask, and if you got the picture aligned properly you could make it look liit the person you wrre taking a pic of was wearing the snorkel and mask and look like they were underwater. Kinda cool effect. I never noticed this feature on the DASH though.
edit: i just found the templates on WM 6.1 , but the four that are preloaded are pretty lame.
Aaaaahhhhh, never mind Ive found out how you do it...
the trouble was BT never provided me with a manual with the phone, its all done online in PDF format now. But after trawling through the PDF I eventually found out how to add extra frames -
Template Folder (Picture Theme only). By default, templates are
stored in the \My Documents\Templates folder on the device’s Main
Memory. If you transferred some templates to a storage card (via File
Explorer), set this option to Main + Card to specify that templates are
located in both the main memory and the storage card.

so thats where I was going wrong, I had read somewhere that the folder had to be called Frames... when that didnt work I renamed it Template when all along it should have been Templates.
Thanks anyway.

do you have any templates to share?
Templates
Here you go.
Uh, I know it's not rocket science, but my upload keeps failing, I was trying to upload a few templates that I have for the DASH, Excalibur, etc.
Yeah I have found one or two good ones, I will try and post them sometime today
A couple of Wako Jacko's from BoSelecta (one just does the face while the other takes the face and background)
a Shrek and Fiona and a Wanted poster for now...
I think the frames from Sony Ericson phones should work (320x240) so im going to see if I can find them on my girlfriends phone and copy them onto my excalibur. The Sony Erricsons have some great fun frames and to be honest a really good camera built into their phones.
Does the frame need a special neme or extension?.
In Which folder need to be placed?
PS: Sorry my bad English

Thanks amigo!
This is a great forum, thank you every body!
Hello guys, I've never seen a black default background for 6.1, can someone crank this out, I'm currently using the default green one which is cool but I loose a lot of contrast on the top icons, I'm hoping that with a default black background the contrast is more apparent and thus making the top icon bar usable again. I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance
JL
not around my comp right now but why not take the green one, convert to grey scale, and adjust levels?

You took the words out of my mouth, convert to black and white then alter the contrast.
Do you know what the default green background is called? Then i can get on to it.

Yeah, I wish I knew where that file is located, can this be done on Windows Paint, I'm kind of a huge rookie but I guess I can try if I can locate the file but hold on, I recall having a blue Sliding Panel background, let me go find that
Then i can get on to it. here is the file in blue
If someone can Photoshop this to a cool looking metallic grey or some similar color that would render the MRU icons with some contrast enough to differentiate among them it would be great

Let me know what you think i could alter it more?
If you do want it altered please be specific as to what you want.
And thanks showaco will have a look in morning it's way ast my bed time
Looks good to me...
If you ever need an actual editor (not ms paint) here's a few ideas for you to play around (all freeware or gnu) Gimp is the most powerful http://www.gimp.org/, paint.net http://getpaint.net or something that is similar in interface to pshop is artweaver http://www.artweaver.de/index.php?en_version.

Sent you PM, finding it hard to get the gloss, i'm trained in photography and tend to use the printing process to get gloss, have been playing about with softness of the image, am going to pass this on to someone more knowledgeable than me in the area of editing lol, i'm using Corel Pro X2, if anyone can beat me to this do it, i'm sure we must have photo editing peeps on here? I think it is done via layers from what i can find?
Hope peeps dont mind just attached a couple of my images.
Thanks, just PM you, these image are pretty hardcore, lots of detail, the DOF on these images is hugh F64 lol, remember that, thanks I really appreciate your efforts.

Nice one taken with a Fuji s5700 not as good as the old Nikon f501 f401 slr but the time came that digi is so much cheaper.
I see you take photos to as you mention depth of field and aperture.
The tinted pink is in the picture take not after process, sepia on a very nice day.
Will keep you posted.
yes, I do, I took 4 BW classes in college and grew to love it, its only a hobby though, Leica M Rangefinder, Canon F1, and a point and shoot digital

Hi folks
I am thinking about skinning the Android, and I am starting to understand how to do it as we speak
I have discovered the correct files, and the only problem I am having at the moment, is lack of creativity >.<
Does anyone have bright ideas on how it should be?
Best regards,
Zappza
Quite like the original skin with Android. The 3 screens allows me to add anycuts to the apps grouped by personal stuff, daily apps and then browser/net stuff.
Skin ideas
Look for the thread that talks about the G2... some interesting pictures there.
--M
Basically the only things I can to currently to get it to look a like the mockups, is to change the icons to be more shiny.
That could work out
Will try to get some work done next week, I have lots of homework at the moment >.<

Think I'll pass on this one.
I don't like the design on the X360 dash.
Perhaps the Wii though, I'll have to check it out when I get my Wii
I think it would be cool to have three tabs at the bottom for file shortcuts.
That way instead of having to put custom folders on the desktop one could just swipe up one of the three tabs.
Granted you can store many shortcuts on the side desktop screens. But, I like the swipe motion from the bottom better.
Also, I would love to see some different color themes. Maybe reverse the black/white of the window shade and made the app slider a darker grey.
What about making the icons transparent; like the blackberry storm.
please dont copy the iphone or xbox or whatever..i mean the color schemes are alright
but just make something pure eyecandy please..show us your creativity!!!

I haven't read so much in the Android Documentation yet, but my logic senses that this is some pretty heavy modding of both the graphics and the .xml files that control how things are setup.

This could be possible without any big fuss.
Transparent icons when inactive, and if pressed they become opaque.

I will try to sketch something while at school, and we'll see how it goes
Perhaps I will start something simple, such as just changing the icons and some of the buttons with some other icons. Just to get a grip of it

you know, something black and shiny like the diamond interface always looks cool
black, dark grey will always be slick..look at HTC Manilla interface for good examples..
let me kow if you need any photoshop help...i am good with the pixels (or so i think ) not with scripting though

Something with a wireframe / Tron / Neon look to it, with icons that look like japanese writing, but really have english text.

Yeah, I like black but I prefer dull black, especially since I have the Black G1 ^^
Some Photoshop help would've been great
A starter could've been just to make the standard android a lot darker, just to familiarise with how we can edit the settings
Will start on Tuesday probably, my girlfriend is visiting me from Norway, so I'll probably have other stuff to do this weekend
What's the news on this?
And would this require root? =/
Currently nothing yet, but I will hopefully get started tomorrow
This will require root yes, as the only way I know of is to replace the files in question in the modified RC8 or RC30 image from JesusFreke.
could someone get me the source graphics... pdspatrick AT gmail DOT com.....I am rather good with fireworks, and I wanna make a skin for all of ya, but I don't have the capability to sign the update.zip's

Was wondering if anybody was good at Photoshop (or any other drawing software) and especially good at drawing your own wallpaper?
I'm trying to teach myself by watching videos and just generally clicking everything until i work my way around it, although i always come across the same problem.. the wallpapers never come out HD, it always come out kind of blurry if you know what i mean.
My favorite wall-papers are those for example like Sony Ericsson, abstract i think. I'm desperate to learn how to make my own wall-papers like that, if anyone could give me any pointers cos i've seen some people creating their ownhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif
Btw, using Photoshop Cs5
Practice makes perfect really with these things. As long as you use an image of the correct scale so it doesnt have to be stretched or zoomed to fit the screen, what you see on the pc screen should look just as good if not better on the phone screen (since the pixels are smaller).
Create a new canvas of 1280x720 and go from there.
ah cheers, would you happen to know how they make those abstract type art, i can try, but like i said, it never pops out if you know what i mean, it always looks dull..
any photshop users ? ?
I usually like playing with polar coordinates tool. Gives a real interesting effect.
Otyerwise using the pen tool and making random lines, then right clicking and selecting stroke path (simulate pressure ticked and brush tool selected in the window). Then applying a drop shadow or outer glow couod give a cool effect with a gradient background maybe.
I usually make minimalist or really clean wallpapers so not much experience with abstract.
Just keeping practicing and reading tutorials. It can take a little while to get used to the different functions and short cuts.

I think you would be better off using Adobe illustrator.
Photo shop is designed for editing pre-made images.
Illustrator is designed to create graphics ect from scratch.

Anyone have suggestions of a good one?
I have always been a fan of Aviary, and it's only gotten better since Adobe bought them, but I will say that the built-in app is pretty good for a quick auto adjust.

I can't write on my photos or cut out a section of the photo tho...I was trying to prove some private information before posting it online and couldn't do that, which was very frustrating so figured I'd ask...glad I did, I'll look into that app! Thanks!

Snapseed, Pixlr, PicsArt and Aviary are the best photo editing Apps you should be looking for !
All are free and available in the PlayStore
I use a few different editing apps depending on what I am doing. The one I use frequently that is not mentioned here is snapseed
Snapseed and Prisma is what I primarily use.
Photomate is what I use if I want to real editing on an Android device(It even supports RAW).
I also have lightroom but just like on my PC I never got into using it(I prefer using PS)

The gallery app with CM had the basic needs for editing (cutting, drawing and writing). Anything similar?
Snapseed is a bit too much IMO. Will give Aviary a run. Thanks
Photo studio pro is the best IMO
