CAMERA RESOLUTION LOWERED AFTER UPGRADE - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Hi,
My Qtek 2020 had a camera resolution of 1280x1024 (1.3 MP) before upgrade to WM5. Now I can have only 640x480 max resolution.
I am so happy of WM5 that I don't want to downgrade just for the camera.
Can anybody provide a better camera driver to have full benefit of my hardware?
Thanks a lot.

QTek 2020 have 1,3MPx camera???? :shock: :shock:

According to the specs I found, 2020 has a VGA camera and 2020i has 1.3MP camera. So, you should be right.
Also according to the same specs my phone is 2020 (the CPU is Intel PXA263 400Mhz). But I know definitly that before the upgrade I took some pictures with 1280x960 resolution.
NOW I NOTICE that my phone had also built-in handsfree but now I see that the "Turn Hands-free On" option in the pop up menue of the phone is disabled.

hi-res vga out

hi everybody just ahave a special request that can be cool if someone can do that
wm6 support many resolution higher than 640x480 like on toshiba G900 (WVGA)
so i wonder if it's possible to make wm6 to run on this kind of resolution on tv out (vga cable) ????

[Q] Slow motion video recording?

I would really love being able to do some slow-mo videos with my SGS2, any way to do so?
The camera simply isn't built for that kind of use. You could do it, if there were software, but the framerate would be atrocious.
Here's an app for playing back videos in slow motion...

Probably the best and only solution. The camera was only built for up to 30fps I believe. If you know how slow motion cameras work (very high frame rate), you should see how this is a problem .
I'm bringing this thread back to life to save cluttering the board up with yet another similar one. I've been looking for an app to do the same thing and have, like other searching, not found anything to suit.
The reason I'm still chasing it down is that I had the Samsung Jet before my SGSII and even given it's age and utter lack of power compared it had the feature to be able to record video at high speed so that when played back it would be very good quality slow motion (25% speed if my memory recalls correctly).
Now, if that phone could do it so long ago with little native power and a poor camera then surely the SGSII could do something like that at the very least, even if the max video size had to be dropped to 640x480 or similar to keep the framerate more locked in?
Want that too!
Can somebody pls answer this question.. Is 30fps hardware limitation?? Really??
I once had Samsung OmniaHD with 8Mpix camera, probably not much different from any other, and 320x240 resolution it was able to capture 120fps..
How can it be a limitation of hardware? Isn't it possible to write an app that would capture even 240fps at lower resolutions?

I'm searching for this since a year from now, I think the problem remains in the drivers and not in android SO, there is one or two android phones that support is, but I dont know how exactly, if I dont misstake samsung galaxy note 2 and one motorola has slowmotion, I belive that they build a driver to use de camera as fast as possible, on other devices I think that is not possible unless some can build such driver, and that probably will need to do in some native assembler code of each device cpu and irqs, unless the company release that driver
the functions of android to get frames from camera are very limited to useless stuff and pre-set formats and fps
I dont know whats about with android 3.1+ or 4, maybe thats SO has this functionality natively
get fast fps from a ccd camera is not a MP issue nor too much CPU requeriments nor related to amount of RAM
with a windows mobile 6.1 device such samsung omnia i900, that has a 625mhz CPU and a 5MP camera you can record 120fps in 320x240, the camera of this phone has ISO 800 (it doesn't mean 800fps, but means that it can get a very tiny little power signal from sensor in a very short amount of time) but android cameras discard this features and incorporates functions very limited and related to normal users

I don't think you understand the concept of cameras well. The hardware determines whether it is 30 or 60fps and not the software.
For slow motion, the highest a consumer (or affordable) camera does is 1080p at 60fps.
There are cameras like phantom hd that do well over 1k fps but they cost 100k

Not completely accurate.
For a consumer camera, the highest framerate at 1080p might be 60fps like you say, but some low cost consumer sensors can do high fps at lower rez. My $100 Canon Elph 100HS from 2011 will do 640x480 at 120fps or (I think) 320x240 at 240fps. I've used the 480p120 option and it came out very nice for sports use, especially for reviewing batting swings with players. The sensor tech for fairly high frame rate at decent (480p) rez is not limited to >$1000 cameras, leading me to believe it's probably more software related. I don't know enough about the sensor in the GSII though.
*Edit*
Apparently the Galaxy S II uses one of two identically spec'd (according to Anandtech) sensors from either Samsung or Sony. The Sony IMX105 specs are here. According to that page the sensor should be capable of 120fps at 1/8 sub sampling. I am not entirely sure what they mean by 1/8 sub sampling, but I would assume that it means using 1/8 of the effective pixel count or about 1M pixels. If all that is true, then the hardware should be capable of 640x480 at 120fps. Some assumptions there, though.

[Q] SGS2 continuous autofocus ONLY in 1080p recording?

Is the continuous autofocus in video recording for SGS2 ONLY works in 1080p?
I know its impressive to be able to record in 1080p with continuous autofocus,
but for me, 720x480 is sufficient
if i set the resolution lower than 1080p, the camera doesn't auto focus any more in video recording.
Am i the only one facing this problem?
is my unit defected or with software problem?
Please let me know whether you guys able to get video focus in lower resolutions.
Thanks!!
for me its more less the same..the autofocus is there but u cant notice it that much...i think lower res means that the camera doesnt need to focus 2 much on details less pix less focus correct me if i am wrong
but yeh u can feel it a lot more with 1080p
Hello hunteres,
Thanks for replying
I'm very sure there is no autofocus in the lower resolution,
start video recording outside my house (very far, focus at infinite)
put a book infront of cam, about 10inch away (focus change to macro, words on book become clear.
(only works in 1080, doesn work in 480)
Its weird that the 1.2GHz dual core able to record at 1080p but not 480p

[Q] galaxy s3 concept looks

hi, do you like a concept galaxy s3? im very hope its looks like on pictures ,cook specs ,only sad camera is 8 not 12 mpx , other say 12 must be with new camera sensor i think
With each day passing Smartphones are getting more and more Pixels. In 2010 you have enjoyed videos recorded at 720p which is indeed an extraordinary thing but Samsung is going to take it to the next level by giving you phones that will have the capability to record videos at 1080p. Samsung along with the announcement of its Dual core processor Exynos has also announced two new image sensors, 8.0 MP S5K3H2 and 12.oMP S5K3L1 respectively. Both sensors have the capability to shoot videos at 1080p at 60fps, two times higher than the previous ones.It has been speculated that to process such an enormous resolution at 60fps Samsung will need more powerful processors that it has already announced, so we can expect that the next breed of Phones from Samsung might be powered with Dual core processors codenamed Exynos having the capability to record videos at 1080p.SEOUL–(Korea Newswire) February 10, 2011 — Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., a world leader in advanced semiconductor solutions, today unveils its new 1/3.2-inch 8 Megapixel (Mp) CMOS imager, S5K3H2. The new imager utilizes Samsung’s advanced 1.4 micron (um) back side illuminated (BSI) pixel technology to offer superior low-light sensitivity, satisfying the high quality imaging requirements of smartphones, high-end feature phones and camcorders.
“The new imager with BSI is designed to address the increased demand for 8 Megapixel resolution cameras by high–end mobile phone customers, and offers excellent low-light sensitivity as well as 1080p full HD video features,” said Dojun Rhee, vice president of marketing, System LSI Division, Samsung Electronics. “We continue to expand our product portfolio beyond mobile phones, to serve a wide variety of applications such as DSLR cameras, DVC/DSCs, camera embedded displays and game applications.”
The 8Mp imager provides clear and crisp image quality on par with point-and-shoot cameras, supporting up to 15 frames per second (fps) at full resolution and 1080p full HD video image up to 30fps. It also offers video recording of 720p at 60fps and VGA resolution images at 120fps for slow motion playback function all on a mobile phone.
Based on Samsung’s BSI low power process technology, the S5K3H2 is able to operate on 1.2 voltage levels enabling longer battery life for high-end mobile and smartphones.
In addition, as the slim form factor fits in an 8.5mm x 8.5mm auto focus camera module with a height dimension of 6.0mm, the S5K3H2 gives design engineers a great deal of freedom in designing camera modules suitable for slim mobile handsets and small form factor applications.
Samsung’s 8Mp S5K3H2 is sampling now and is scheduled for mass production in the second quarter of this year.
Samsung’s diverse imager solutions including the S5K3H2 will be displayed at the Mobile
BUT SONY ERICSSON XPERIA DUO RELISE WITH SENSOR TO BECOUSE SONY HAVE THE SAME

DO GALAXY S3 USE THIS CAMERA modul???
BECOUSE MY HTC HD2 CAMERA AND OTHER SUCKS,I HATE HTC ITS PEACE OF ****,IM NEVER EVER BUY THIS,BECOUSE I PREPARE BUY ONE ON THIS TWO,
PEOPLE YOU OPINION HO BETTER?
SE OR SAMSUNG?
its pictures , i wish samsung look in real,amazing...
No offense, but these concept pictures look like ****. And your write-up makes no sense what-so-ever.

Camera replacement with z3c's model?

Given that on recent versions of android the phone cannot handle properly the camera ( resolution limited to 8.0 mp and very bad focus on low distances ), I was thinking about trying to switch to z3c camera.
First of all, the hardware side. Looking to pictures, dimensions looks very similar, so does the connector. Does it actually fit ? Only a try could tell.
On the software side, z3c is very well supported by lineageos. Could be possible to just switch drivers ( and libraries ) to make it work?
