[Q] HTC Desire - video recording is choppiness on every android above 2.3 - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I have HTC desire and ROM MildWild 9.5 (Android 2.3.7)
Every time when I try install above version then 2.3, video recording looks like .gif
I did some testing on different android version and the results are as follows:
- Oryginal Android 2.1 Eclair - video was recorded an average of 30 fps/s. (I even saw 50 when weather was good)
- Oryginal update to 2.2 Froyo - video was recorded with max 29 fps/s.
Then I root my phone and change HBoot to CM7R2.
- I Instal rom MildWild 9.5 based on Gingerbread 2.3.7 - video is record with max 24fps/s but is ok. No cut, no problem.
Later I try to search higher version than 2.3, so I started to install any ROM based on Android ICS.
- All Android ICS ROM have the same problem - video is record with max 12 fps/s or less and cuts.
Then I start to search any ROM based on JB, but there was worse.
- All Android JB ROM record video with max 2 or 4 fps/s. Sometimes record is not possible because camera is crush.
4fps/s it's not video! It's looks like a .gif file. :laugh:
You see the problem?
Everytime when I install higher version of Android, video recording speed decreases.
Every developer writes:
"KNOW BUGS:
video recording is choppiness"
But how to fix this problem?
I know he knows, but where is the solution?
It's API problem, system, device or what?
Does anyone know a solution?
I want to have a newer version of android, but I also want to have working camera record.
Whether I am seeking too much?

Theres no fix for this yet because it is a htc desire and ics is newer sooo it wont work.

So the problem is the lack of compatibility between the old phone HTC Desire and new android version, right?
So I have to choose between:
a) new version of Android + not working camera /or
b) version 2.3 and working camera
Correct? (why I'm sad... :crying: )

[Q] Desire Cam is not working

Hello everybody.

- I have Downgrade it back to standart android 2.1 and the cam work.
- I flashed Froyo (LeeDroid) Rom on it and the cam cause a reboot after 5 sec / same Problem with HD ROM.
i have my phone since 3 month.

Probably a old radio.
Know what your doing when updating radio's, DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY DURING THE PROCESS

[Q]The device restarts itself when using CamCorder

Hey Guys,
I have HTC Desire with rooted HTC stocked rom version 2.1
Version of radio : 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
When I start cam recorder, it freezes and then the device restarts itself.
(the cam recorder worked perfect before the radio update.)
Is there any solution to this?
Thanks guys
Try to remove the last video you've recorded / or the whole DCIM folder.
Tried, it keeps freezes and restarts.
could it be the radio problem?
Possibly. Why not use a 2.2 ROM? Maybe that radio is too new for 2.1.
OR revert to the previous radio if do not want 2.2
I am almost certain, that this is because of the radio.
4.xx is for Eclair- (2.1), 5.xx ist for Froyo/Gingerbread (2.2/2.3)-Roms. Froyo with a 4.xx radio doesnt work either.
Is there any particular reason to stick to 2.1?

[Q] Problem, the camcorder works wonky..

Heya all,
Have just installed the HDR GB ROM which is based on the Leedroid version of the leaked GB Asia ROM, and all is working smooth and fine apart from one thing - When I record on 720p with the camcorder, the playback is out of sync (sound/video), and it has many glitches..
Could this be because of the radio? I installed the one recommended in the thread.. What other reason could it be?
Thanks
The leaked Asia version probably is the problem. Wouldn't be the radio.
same problem here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043411
no solution yet. if it's not some bad app code then i don't know, maybe hardware...?

Where can I find the Desire S GSM ROM for the Desire GSM?

Unbranded/Unlocked/Stock/Rooted HTC Desire GSM with Froyo
That's all really.
I don't want to move away from HTC Sense (even though I hear Cyanogenmod is very good) but would like the latest version of HTC Sense and Gingerbread. A few questions please:
1. Where can I find the Desire S GSM ROM for the Desire GSM? With installation instructions. I've already rooted.
2. I take it this is the best HTC Sense ROM to install? HTC Sense 3 (HTC Sensation) looks to be in it's infancy.
3. Will this ROM allow me to remove some of the preinstalled bloatware so I can install more apps?
Reasons for wanting to upgrade:
1. Increase storage, so I can install more apps. I'm always running out of storage.
2. Increase battery life.
3. Latest HTC Sense + Android.
Thanks
I should add:
1. I've tried searching but it drew a blank. All I could find was stock Desire S ROMs. I don't have a Desire S, so am guessing these won't work on my Desire.
2. I've never installed an Android ROM before, please bare that in mind when replying but have rooted my HTC Desire without trouble and also years ago installed TomTom on a cheap Chinese (Windows CE) satnav, again without much trouble.
Thanks.
p.s. - Apologises for posting this in two forums, it's not exactly clear which is the correct forum. Please delete whichever thread is in the wrong place.
Is this what you're looking for? Sense on Gingerbread based on Ace S (Is that Desire S??) Anyway , it is Gingerbread and Sense , as long as it works it should be fine whatever it is based on right?

All custom Roms are found in here if you wanna take a look.

Thanks 71baker. Yes that's basically it but I understand the Desire HD roms are safer.
Any idea where I can find a Desire HD (with Gingerbread) rom which works with the Desire and has installation instructions?
Try this one m8 i think you will find its what you are after.

there are some bugs in these roms at the present as they are early versions.

Thanks. That looks like just what I'm after. I'm not bothered about losing the video camera. It's absolutely rubbish.
720p is totally pointless when the lag is so bad, with even the slightest movement. My ancient VGA digital camera produces better videos (much lower res but perfectly fine motion).

Desire technical specification says.
Video: Yes, 720p @30fps (via software update)
How to use 720p? I have latest KITKat.

Use the stock Android 2.3 sense ROM.
720p recording can be found on stock Rom, on some Sense based Roms (and I'm not sure, also on some MiUI)
why they not working at kitkat?
i hate 2.3 roms because them have old market, not google play...

camera has always been an issue on android 4.x.x roms, really needs kernel 3.x, thanks to @LaidbackNikez it mite not be too far away before he gets it running stable. As for the "old market" on gb roms then if the rom has the market updater in system/app then it should update itself once uv logged in and if not u can always just install the latest version ur self.
