I just want a normal flash on the phone. If I turn on the flashlight, it permanently turns on the light. I just want the flash to turn on right before the picture is snapped.
Can anyone help me?
I don't think that's possible. Maybe they tried this but couldn't get the flash to sync with the capture. In my device, it takes about 3 secs to capture the image after pressing the button. What about yours?
It is anyway good to have flash on all the time as it helps you figure out the display in the really dark photographs.

Carty..

That is too bad. Sometimes I just want to take a picture in lower light, not really dark. The flash would be too bright in these situations

Hello,
I just got the x10 mini pro and one thing pretty annoys me. In camera i have flash (LED) enabled all the time but it flashes only when there is too dark. Sometimes when I am taking photo of some text LED doesn't flash although i think that flash would help cause when my hands are shaking the photo is little bit blurry. Is there a way to force phone to flash every time when LED flash is enabled?? (or there is just error in my device?)
Thanks in advance
upper left when phone in landscape more like a lightning icon toggle it...
I know that I have to toogle that in order to have flash. I was refering to different thing. The phone flashes (when the led flash is toggled) only when there is certaint amount of darkness. Sometimes I need flash although phone doesn't flash.
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
I have the exact same need.
I tried taking a picture of someone and there was snow in the background.
Result = camera thinks there is enough light so no camera flash and the person's face is in the shadow.
Does anybody know a solution to force the camera flash to go of while taking a picture?
what about trying other camera softwares?
I m using Vignette and I m satisfied... Maybe it can help you
Ever since I flashed my phone with the official HTC update (3.14.405.2) my flash on the camera will not come on when I select it in either flash or auto mode. It comes on when I take a picture though.
Before I flashed, if I selected flash on the LED would light so the camera could see and then when I pressed the shutter button it would go brighter and take the photo but I cant get this to work now.
Battery is fully charged and I have tried soft rebooting.
Please can someone assist.
Thanks,
John
yep, that started happening a few rom updates ago. its a "feature"
my workaround is to turn on "torchbutton" and then start the camera. pain in the rear.
In stock image "Gallery", when zooming a pic, screen goes black .
After the ICS update, the image gallery also suffered a problem. Sometimes while viewing a pic and you double tap to zoom in, suddenly the screen goes black...no pic. Start to zoom back out and the image comes back..zoom in again..image black screen again. This happens with random pics and wont fix itself unless you Force Stop the app in Control panel. It wont always be the same pics..anyone else get this? Its not important, I just wondered if this is just something on my phone..
After updating to the OTA, everyone has problems until they do a factory reset. It clears out all the GB crap that messes it up.
Backup your data and then power off your phone. Take out the battery and put it back in. Then press power and volume down until you see he white screen. Use the volume keys to highlight and power to select "factory reset".
Forgot I wrote this, sorry. Already did a reset long ago as per suggestions by others for other problems since the update. So the problem never fixed itself. Its some crap with ICS. Its annoying because now I keep getting this problem.
Has anyone else experienced this before?
Ok..obviously nobody knows about this. I'm going to take a short video and i'll have it up within a couple days. This photo browser is pissing me off! Is there a better or just as good (FREE) app out there in the market or on XDA? Something that doesnt have this bullsh** problem in it? Thanks ahead of time for any replies.
Can I fix this? Thanks

what do you mean by "very dim"?! too much brightness or too less?
i see mine get like "auto brightness" like see the screen set itself more brightness and less when in direct sunlight with auto mode disabled...
thats what i know so far...your problem will be like the same i think?!
Too dark, it doesn't change to brighter as it did before

but in your brightness slider you can go to 100% brightness or you only can go to 90?%?
If you can go to 100 and anyway is too dark aybe you need to replace your screen because is faulty.

ah ok, fine...only now i see what your problem, i think is the screen itself and not the second screen, if the second screen is too dim is because the sensor on the side of the top speaker can be dirty on it and it doesnt detect the light trough it...
if this happen again to see if they are some dirt on it simple with your phone locked put it under direct light above that sensor and if the second screen gets brighter then is ok, if not clean the sensor.

You are right, it happens all the time, when I move the phone away in a call, the screen doesnt light-up, I had to press the power button, until I found that whiping that sensor lights it most of the time, must have very little sensitivity

for sure its the sensor...my second screen have a delay maybe 4/5 seconds when put in sunlight to be more bright and its clean! but this second screen in V10 arent too bright like in V20.
Also my call screen doesnt show up too when i need to end a call, i need to click on power button to wake the screen but i get used to it now.
when the phone's screen is off and locked, press power button and tap once on finger print logo (without unlocking), my screen start to blinking, it's like night mode on/off rapidly and goes away after unlocking

Can't reproduce here

It's a camera under the screen. The reason the screen flashes is to take a picture of your fingerprint. It's not a hardware or software problem it's normal behavior.
How does your device take a pic of your fingerprint if it can't see it coz it's too dark

there is no problem with finger print flashes and I know how it works
but there is color distortion after touch and flashes and same thing happens when i use oled saver app as mentioned
see these 2 screenshots before/after (it's not that much dark on my screen but you will get the point)
