[Q] Changing camera resolution? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way I can change the resolution in the stock android camera app? Maybe a string of code or something?

You can change the resolution right in the camera app itself.
You have 8mp (4:3), 6mp (16:9), 2mp (4:3) and 2mp (16:9)

Some custom rom especially those 2.2 or higher have limited functionality. I moved back to EWJET custom ROM to keep all my camera and video cam functionality.

[Q] AOSP ICS rom - camera wide photos

I'm using AOSP 4.0.3 ICS BETA1 with hotfix 3 and
Camera FIX Neo on my Neo, and I'm very satisfied.
But I can't work out how to take widescreen photos
with the camera. In camera settings you can only set
the picture size (8MP, 5MP), there is no aspect or wide
option.
But when recording videos the aspect is 16:9
Is there a way to set the camera in this rom to take
widescreen photos?
If not, is there a way to use a different camera apk?
Thank you for your help,
neo noob
Sorry bro if you want wide screen photos try a different camera app from market. as i dont think that ics camera takes widescreen photos :/
Seems that the sony ericsson default camera app just crops the image when in widescreen mode. thanks for your help!

[Q] problem with wide 16:9 photos [log attached]

I'm using the latest nightly of Rootbox + latest dorimanx 8.1. Here is my problem: in photo app settings I set 6.4 MP (wide photo) after took a photo it has 8MP 4:3 ratio. I've tested jb camera+, camera ZOOM FX, camera FV-5 and camera zoom. Every time was the same result instead of wide photo settings. Any advises are appreciated. Does anybody know which part of code is responsible for taking wide photos?
I was searching through xda today and I found answer for my question. All new AOSP roms are not capable of taking 16:9 photos. Below quote why it is in this way:
„moving to the open source camera hal it removed additional resolutions with 16:9 this is not rom related but device tree related something every aosp rom has in common”
It's really sad for me I love to take 16:9 photos but now I'm not able to. I hope it's going to change in the nearest future.

[Q] [XPERIA NEO] Recording with 960x720 instead of 1280x720

Hi there.
Does anyone know if it's possible to hack the android camera, somehow, to record the HD videos instead 4:3 rather than 16:9? My camera (Xperia Neo) obviously doesn't have a widescreen lens so the magnificent 16:9 is just cropped 4:3. Recording in VGA obviously gives you everything the lense can capture but the quality isn't exactly great.
Any ideas? I tried editing media_profiles.xml, simply replacing 1280 with 960 but it only crashed the cameras.
Thanks

[Q] How to change default video recording resolution?

Hello,
I have Xolo a500s. I flashed a custom rom on it. The custom rom is based on 4.2.2 but it has all apps of 4.4 like camera, launcher,calender,gallery etc.
The problem I am having is that the camera app doesnt have any option to change video recording resolution. It always record video in 640x480 resolution. but in my stock rom It used to record video in 720p resolution.
I installed camera mx app from playstore and this app gives me 720p recording option. But I dont like this app. I want my default camera app to record 720p.
can I edit camera.apk file to change the video recording resolution?
or I will have to change some files of my custom rom to change the resolution?

Google Camera only 4:3

Hallo,
i'm running CM11 with Apolo kernel. The AOSP camera provides 8MP (4:3) and 6.3MP (16:9) properly. But when using Google Camera 2.2.024 only 4:3 resolutions will be shown.
Any solution for this? Changing build.prop, config files, different kernel?
