Camera Focus Problem - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
When taking close up photos using my x10, it focuses correctly but then looses focus and takes a blurry photo. Is there any way I can stop it from doing this? I have tried various settings but nothing seems to do the trick.
Thanks in advance

So freakin annoying

I had this same issue soon after I got my X10 (brand new).
I had installed a lot of task killers (like most new android users!), and some camera apps like Camera360.
My X10 now focuses perfectly, I did:
- Removed task killers
- Removed juice defender
- Turned on touch-to-capture in standard camera app
- Started using Vignette
And somewhere along the line the above fixed it.

Well I use battery boost, and Advanced Task Killer Pro, but I have turned the 'Touch to capture' feature on and it seems to do the trick, just not alot of the time
Thanks anyway

No that didn't help, but thanks anyway
Also I got the vignette app, and it does exactly the same

No.too bad.
Gunawan, GN Multimedia & X10i
what a shame ........... oh well atleast i got a crap light for when i loose my keys !!!!!
For the record, the camera flash problem is NOT a 2.1 limitation - it's an SE limitation. I am using 2.1. They need to get off their butts and include something basic like this.
The Vignette app can be purchased on the marketplace that will give you a flash, but it replaces the stock camera interface. That is the only solution I have found so far and there is still no free solution.
i have installed Vignette and auto flash and flash on, are no more there, it's seems that 2.1 update changed the Vignette app

Update to the last version.
It works.
Too bad with Vignette you can only take pictures of rocks.
Is too damn slow in starting and saving pictures...
actually.. the flash problem is in 2 parts.. 1. SE made it a pain in the 455 to switch it on..
and 2. it's not a flash.. it's a fairly mediocre LED light. mostly useful for "finding your keys in the dark".!

[Q] Camera troubles

Is anyone having problems with their camera app? When I attempt to launch mine, the grid pops up then the app FC's. I have no idea why. I've cleared data, rebooted, and still nothing.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Yeah. My camera sucks. Slow. I use my phone to take pictures of my kids. I take 10 for 1.
It cannot deal with speed of an object at all whatsoever.
There is no constant shoot. On my galaxy and g2x you could POP 9 shots in a row.
I desperately need this feature.
Is there an app that has a continuous shot?
Anyone? Help?

a lot of peeps having camera troubles. hoping for an update. It would help if more people contacted htc about it....
I remember seeing a post somewhere about fast burst camera on the market. . . There is a paid and a free one. I have not used it, but it says it can take 5 - 10 pics a sec. . .

mine forcecloses to. i noticed if you toggle the 2d 3d button before opening the app it helps.. IE if your switch is set for 2d and u get a force close when trying to open the camera app, set it to 3d open the app (hopefully without a force close) then switch it back to 2d.. works for me.. would be nice if i didn't have to do that though..

Anyone using camera 360?

When running camera 360 the screen seems to be out of wack. The image seems tilted and distorted. However, I when switching to the ffc and back it fixes the problem.
Anyone else have this issue? I'm on aokp m6 and the same thing happens on devil toast 0.74

Try using an updated version because it may have compatibility problems if you are using ICS.
The app kinda sucks anyway. But I think it's free and probably one of the better free ones. I users camera zoom fx, much nicer. But I always go back to the stock camera for some reason, got cool mods camera mod installed so it's a big improvement over htc's

I flashed the cool mods camera mod and compared to the camera 360. The pics do not appear as crisp and clear as with camera 360 .
To the other post, I have the most current version of the app installed

I think UCam is the best free camera app. I'm thinking of paying and going pro! Try it out and see how it works. I can use the feedback so I can install it on my sisters EVO3D.

It just kept crashing for me when taking a pic
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I can take the pic just fine. However, it is the preview that is distorted. It happens with Ucam, Camera360, and sometimes with Camera Zoom FX
EDIT* I believe it was the aokp rom I was on. I flashed sense 4.0 and no longer have the issue.

Venom camera app..

I flashed a couple different versions of the high res camera app w/o trying the one that came with the latest venom Rom (no idea why, I just did). What version should I be using? Also, got a link to a dl? I've been searching in all areas of the Rezound forum here and I'm giving up, so I'm finally gonna just ask for some help. The camera app just force closes every time I open it. I've cleared the cache and davlik, fixed permissions, etc.. I've done everything I can think of or what others have suggested and still have no luck. Thanks in advance.

i noticed that the camera would force close on me as well on ViperRom... but only when i went to the app through the lockscreen. so I'd recommend not accessing thee app through the lockscreen.
You just turn off face recognition. Worked for me

I can't get intothe camera from anywhere. It force closes immediatly so I can't turn off face recognition.

I had the same issue but it didn't last long, soon after I got a system update notification so I updated and tested the camera right after and until today it still works like a charm.
PS: If you want to try to turn off face recognition like others say, switch to the front camera right away and it won't close on you

I'll keep an eye out for an update. I wish I could try to press anything to try to get it working, but it force closes immediatly as its starts. It shows the camera and everything, but the picture is squished. I've tried to press all the buttons as the camera opens and I'm still not having any luck. Thankfully I have Vignette.

So I got it working. I just reflashed the rom. Can any of you tell me if this roms camera is as good as the hd camera? I can't really compare cause I haven't been able to use it.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
I don't know about the camera mod you mentioned, but I do know that the picture quality I was seeing on ViperRez was poor compared to what I see on NeoMax. I'm guessing its because ViperRez is a port from another phone and neomax is based on rezound software, kernel, etc.
Sent from my rezound.
I think that Joe Brady's camera app is better than the one included , unfortunately I can't get it to work on this rom
So really no working hd camera zip for us on Venom to flash currently?
I like the Venom camera, I think it's the one from the Htc One. I like the camera speed over the HD camera. Seems like most of my pics have to be taken fast and this camera will click off photos as fast as you push the button.
rezound camera
Venom is so far one of the best ROMs out there for ICS for the rezound in my opinion.
I noticed the camera is not 100% stable in my case. What I mean by that is that I can take pictures but after 2 or 3 consecutive pictures the screen freezes for about 5 seconds and then it closes the camera app again. It won't give me the force close error, it will just take me back to the main home screen.
You can open it again and it will work temporary just fine for few pictures and it will happen again.
The ROM was installed several times still the same problem. Everything else works fine.

Photos automatically resizing after taking a camera shot

Hello,
I have this annoying issue that when I take a shot with the stock camera app, the photos are automatically resizing. The issue happens not all the time, so I don't think it's a setting issue. I've attached a example of how it looks like.

I have the same issue on mine! It works fine at 20MP on superior auto but doesn't work well with 15mp and just squishes the picture!

I suspect you've answered your own question, try uninstalling 20MP superior auto. If that fixes it try asking the devs of the application what is going on, if not post again here.
In general if you have an issue I'd always suggest disabling / uninstalling any apps that could be affecting it, in this case leave just the stock camera app, and then enabling mods one by one until you identify the rogue app.
