hi
plz ppl with omnia answer these questions..as many ppl wantto get this phone it would help all of us knowing some interesting questions about it
1)does real vga work on it
2)is there an issue using programs especially games on it
3)have you tried opera 9.5 if so how does it render
4)is the 5mp camera as goodas nokia n95 camera?
5)can you post some screen shots so we can get a better idea of the actual resolution
6)hows the gps functionality??
plz answer as many questions as you can!
thanks
1) the screen is WQVGA so that means Wide Quarter VGA, so no... it's not VGA
2)because of the wierd screen resolution (400x240), games tend to only work in landscape mode... if you try to turn them rightside up, the buttons won't work on the touchscreen (they're messed up)
3)haven't tried opera...
4)in my opinion it isn't as good.. although it has more options with wich to play, it's kind of laggy (you press the button, you wait for the autofocus and then it takes the pic) - but maybe if you fool around a bit with the settings you'll get better results
5)i'll post pictures made with it and some pictures of it tomorrow perhaps
6)the gps is actually assisted-gps enabled and it works pretty good... i even got gps signal inside (and not near a window) - iGo 8 works fine, so does navigon and garmin, haven't tried tomtom route66 or others...
Hi,
Now I know the TP2 is not a digicam ... But can anyone share any tips on how to get the best out of the TP2 for video recording.
Some thoughts I have include:
1) Fast SD card
2) 3rd party video software???
3) Improving fps from 12.5. I guess reducing resolution..??
However I appreciate the TP2 is a phone .... but with some jolly useful extras.
Thanks,
Sam
i havent try but maybe apps like coolcamera?
Hi guys
A quick one. When recording with the touch pro 2 is there a black border to the right side of the picture you are recording? that means the picture you are recording doesnt fill the screen. I just noticed this tonite and i dont think this has always been the case
since I posted my question over 30 people have read it but have just moved along without helping. This isnt a difficult question and all someone has to do is pick up their phone, launch the camera and click on video recording to see if the black border exists. This should not even take you a minute but people just read and move on. If I start a new thread asking my specific question, you,ll get some id1ots talking rubbish about using the search function. well I have and it doesnt return any results for my query. So is there any sensible person out there willing to check this out for me?

Hi Lombardo8,
Yes, there is black strip on the right side of the screen but ONLY when you save video. When you play this video it is over full screen.
Sorry for my "English".

Thank you very much Nino. Have a nice day
12.5 fps? Probably for videos meant as video messages (eg vzw flix mms). But with Mp4 I had 15-20 fps even in 640x480. Best advice. use MP4 video. Stay away from H.264 because that is CPU heavy and results in blocky looking video. Black border on the right side? It only means you are not recording in widescreen mode and does not show up in playback. Select the widescreen option in advanced options and border is gone. Not sure if this will work on video, but it does on pics.
I'm not all too thrilled with CoolCamera. First, it's buggy as hell. Second, it's not free. And third, it doesn't work on all devices. I tried it on my Q9M about a year ago. Hasn't been updated since then. Since the Q9m has a crappy camera, I wanted more options. Unfortunately this program didn't help, as the options didn't work on that phone. The camera on my TP2, different story. Very advanced compared to the Q's crappy setup. Don't even want to try CoolCamera on this thinking it might be worse off than factory HtcCamera. There have to be better options then that program (CoolCam). The developer of that app has focused on his webcam app instead.
How did you get your camera to record at 640x480 my Tilt2 doesnt seem to have that option
Hey everyone, just new to XDA, got my TP2 from telus 2 days ago. It has been awesome so far. Anyhow.....
Ive got a bunch of low res java games that ive been playing on the newest release of Jbed ( 20090217.5.1 ). The problem is that on the amazing TP2 screen, the games are TINY (about 1/10 of the screen).
Im wondering if there is a way to play these games in a larger mode. Im wondering if any of these work-arounds exist:
- a version/plugin of Jbed that allows fullscreen /zooming
- a hack that allows the TP2 zoom feature to work in programs like Jbed
- an alternate KMV that has a zoom feature
- program to change the TP2 screen resolution (NOT like wvga fix that turns part of ur screen black, more of a full screen resolution changer)
I dont care what it does as long as it can allow me to play all of these games in a size where i can actually freaking SEE somthing. Theres nothing more annoying then reading text thats a PIXEL thick.(Ive got eye strain now lol )
Ive attached a pic showing how the game window compares to the overall screen size
Thanks to everyone that took the time to read this post.
Zooming would be way to intensive and useless.
The best solution will be for it to just play in fullscreen, but have the extra parts blank. Scaling the image would just be ugly, all distorted. So, it'll be like a widescreen movie on a fullscreen TV.
But idk what would do this.
i tried to use search but that was a no go sry if i missed it
the optimus one is said to have this problem (if you touch the screen during gameplay the fps drops dramatically)
just wanted to know if desire has it thanks
btw does the multitouch failure make a very big difference while you are gaming ?
Hey guys, I recently downloaded camera ICS +, But the face effects in video recording were not working, it made it force close ( I even turned off fast boot). So I just want to know does anyone know a App which can do similar effects like big eyes, small mouth, big nose etc? Would really appreciate it as My family and friends would love it
