I'm running Wolfbreak's TW 007 with custom kernel 3.52 and BB52. I installed from scratch (stock 2.1, then up to TW 007). It's brilliant in every aspect except I can't get Vignette to work. It takes the picture and gives me the preview screen but from there if I try to save, it gives me a VIE error saying it can't create the file. I've tried all options for save location and I've tried all resolutions also, still no love. Has anyone else come across this? Have tried the 2 latest versions of Vignette, and the demo.
same thing for me :/ any1 know anything on this issue?
Also battling with this. Mailed vignette support and they sent a new test version but it also has problems. From what I can see it falls over after it has saved the file. I'm guessing it may have something to do with the gallery as that doesn't get refreshed. If you force a media scan it then picks up the picture in the gallery.
I was also having problems with the LED flash. I played around with various versions of the 3D gallery and suddenly the flash has started working. This is also with the custom kernel. There have been quite a few posts about this in the dev thread, but I need to get to 10 posts before I can add my findings there.
I have a few different versions of the 3D gallery at home which I will try tonight to see if any of them help further.
It seems older versions work better, especially in illimanting flash issues.
Try and find an old backup of the demo version...
i tried the past 3 versions of the full version, and all had same error in processing photo.. i found out it does save them in the folder, just throws an error when processing.
I'll check in the gallery after trying some more photos. Just a prick that we get this error. I'd like to post in Wolf's thread but also don't have my 10 posts up.
thanks for your work on this andypen, I haven't tried any different versions of the gallery, and TBH I haven't bothered trying the LED as yet.
[edit] a couple of questions, how do you force gallery to refresh? just kill the app then start it again?, also, I must be stupid but I can't find the LED control in Vignette [/edit]
The problem has gone in 2011.06.23 version from market.
Sent from my X10a powered by Wolf's TW-007.1 / bb:65 / zKernel / BRA
Also I have the same problem. What could be the solution? Some speak of the core of the 3D Warehouse, other processing before storing the photograph, and so on.
What if, I can not make Vignette function properly.
I tried 4 different versions of this application, but still has the same processing error when trying to save the picture, so I concluded that this ROM is not correct for the operation of Vignette.
Please someone who has a possible solution?
Greetings!

I still have the problem...
If you don't have the problem, what's your settings?
this is infuriating...
I have found a possible solution to the vignette saving error. Instructions here
Have any of you contacted the developers of the vignette app and asked if they can rerelease an older version that works.
I have version 2010 - 11 - 04.3 which has worked on all versions of wolfs rom with all custom kernels.
I have a backup up of this but can not share it as it is paid app.
But I am sure the devs of the app will help once they know about the issue
Maybe it's an issue of the 3.52 kernel? i'm on wolf's tw071 rom, with zkernel and the latest version of vignette, fully functional.
No its nothing to do with the kernel....
I have had vignette working on all the 3.4 and 3.5 kernels with wolfs rom.
And now with z's new kernel and BB67.
Just email the devs of the app and ask them for an old version!!!

PS...I have just sent the following email to the devs of vignette
Hello,
I was wondering if you could help a lot of people out.
I am writing this on behalf of a lot of users of the SE x10i who use custom roms from the XDA developers site.
As you may be aware the camera on these roms does not support flash light or zoom, the only way to implement that was through vignette and developers of these custom roms often pointed users to your app in order to get zoom and flash on the camera.
However, with the latest versions of vignette the flash and zoom also seem to be not working but those of us with older versions still have full functionality.
Would it be possible for you to re-release older versions in the market for those people who use custom roms on x10.
I have the november 2010 version and it works fine.
This would be a great help to everyone at XDA who uses the x10i.
I look forward to your reply.
PS, i have copied this email to the xda website.
Regards

Here is the response from the developers of the app to my email.
Hi Greg
Some older releases of Vignette can be found on our website at
http://sites.google.com/site/neilandtheresa/Vignette/releases
If you can provide us with any information that would allow Vignette
to detect whether it was running on an X10 with such a ROM (e.g. the
contents of android.os.Build.VERSION.INCREMENTAL and
android.os.Build.DISPLAY), we might be able to solve the problem for
you.
Thanks,
Neil.
Hope this helps you all out.

I'm on bb67 kernel 2.6.29 and it works fine. I did have to change the save location though.

Hey Everyone, this is my first Thread and first post . I'm disappointed that no one has actually helped upload the DELL PC SUITE, I tried getting it so many times, and was only able to get it after using Opera, anyway here is the link I uploaded:
hotfile_.com/dl/82048490/70efa28/Updated_Dell_Streak_PC_Sync_Tool_(clair_2.1).zip.html (Not letting me upload external links so just copy the link and remove the _ after 'hotfile')
To members with high ranks and posts, please comment and confirm (after you try it first) that it works and that it's not infected or anything like that, so Other members can trust this link...
or in here:
ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/Handheld/
Your link will only work if you use Opera Browser ...
Just navigate to Dells support site using any browser you choose and download it from there. Not rocket science.
Thanks zarbo...
I'm trying with Filezilla ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/Handheld/ so far downloaded 5% and counting. Let you know if it is successful.
Yehh
edit... 65%
I'm using the FTP link in FireFox and Konqueror and it works in both
that's the one for 2.1... they have one on the support page that says it was uploaded on 10/28 and has a different version # but the ftp link is dead. guess it will be up after 2.2 rolls out.
Success thanks to Zarbo, and many others
Thanks for this, downloaded completed and after plugging the Streak in, its syncing
Its also syncing Contacts, Calendar, Tasks and Notes. I thought Android couldnt sync Tasks and Notes. I'm grinning now hee.
Thanks again for all your help.
Hope the update to 2.2 will not kill the sync... strange why Dell would do such a thing
You're welcome everybody.
BTW if you go to the update option on the dell streak you'll notice that the page has changed, yeah they have updated their servers, probably preparing for big bandwidth suggesting the official 2.2 update for the streak will be out soon
Mine is also an O2 but using in Singapore...
I saw the new page this morning, but its gone now.

There is no version for custom ROMs and never will be. Not to mention the software is totally unnecessary, even if you were still on a stock ROM.

Well, I have the Froyo version of the suite. I think I still have it for download from mediafire, but you'd have to hack the software to bypass the official version check. Even then it may not work. But for a thought exercise it sounds intriguing.
Going to chime in: cdzo, you really should should phrase your responses better.
Even if he does in fact not really know what he's doing, that tone isnt what xda is about (my opinion, i am not a mod as far as the forums are concerned)
But he is correct: build-wise eclair and froyo are entirely different beasts with regards to the sync software. They're completely incompatable.
Only the 3xx (froyo) roms support sync as far as recent roms are concerned. GB roms are not supported, and only stock 3xx roms are supported. Dont expect it to work on any custom froyo based roms either.
Desktop syncing isnt standardized at all for android, so dell wrote their own desktop syncer and modified the stock apps to be able to sync.
You must use the matching rom and syncer, dell made versions available for 1.6/2.1/2.2 and that's it.
To repeat: as dell made changes to the rom to support it, it will never work outside a stock rom that hasnt had it's stock apps modified.
You can (possibly) hack it back into a newer rom, but it's a lot of work for a no-longer supported tool

even if it is supported.. i just seem cant find when to use it... mostly because of the android application used had that covered pretty much every aspect ... and usually in a better way...
All I can say is that there was a version designed for 3xx, and that's about it.
I've never tried it, I do have copies of it if dell doesnt have a copy anymore.
Hello.
UPDATE4: Sorry for the delay, but it is quite annoying to adapt the camera to a new build every week.
Fixed: green tint in photos with A/W and Flash.
Bug: Because the new application "file explorer" depends libmedia.so and also the camera, there is a bug with the file explorer, FC in certain files. Sorry i'm not a developer.
http://www.mediafire.com/?l68k9jsc5v3g26t NOT SIGNED.
UPDATE3: Finally fixed and working version with MIUI ROM 12.03. Credits for all people that have collaborated with this port:
vauss from www.htcmania.com
Special thanks to bigrushdog from miui-dev
apside and arasthel from htcmania.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZGVU97F4
UPDATE2: Fixed and working in the last MIUI ROM 12.03.
UDPATE1: Finally working Videocamera on MIUI. I have copied all libs related with camera on MIUI Rom. I post two versions: one with CM6 kernel and other only the camera.apk with libs. Sorry but the zip aren't signed. . There is only a bug, the button for change between cam/video don't work, you must change with Option Button. Sorry i don't know how fix it
I have managed to run the camara.apk of CM6 in MIUI ROM, but the camrecorder does not work. When I try to activate the video appears FC. I can see a picture on the camera but then the application closes.
I've done using the framework of the EVO MIUI 4G and CM6 camera libraries. Why? Well until i know miui evo4g rom is the unique miui rom that can run cm6 camera.apk. so i have copied framework.jar on my N1 rom. I don,t understand why camrecorder does not work. I will attach my logcat if someone can fix it
Please try it and send me feedback. PLEASE: I am not responsible for anything. I've only put together parts of several ROM to make it work. I have not programed anything. All credit to the people of CM6, EVO4G MIUI-Rom and MIUI-ROM.

Yes but with his pack in actual MIUI Rom does not work. With this pack photo cam now works, but there are problems with video. I think that the actual error is diferent that flak0.

great progress so far! you weren't kidding when you said you were going to give it a shot
btw folks, over at miui-dev there is a running bounty for getting this to work.. feel free to make your pledge!
i thought it has been this way
there were other tried it and the regular camera worked, but not the cam-corder
Update.
Always same error when try to activate camcoder. I think that there are a factible solution, beacause, the camcoder starts normaly but after 1 sec appears FC.
Please, someone can help me?
i paste the errors on logcat.
perhaps charansingh could help out since he's an expert in this area?
i would LOVE the CM6 camera on MIUI!

Shoot him a pm, he's always been good at replying to messages.
UPDATE1: Update first post
After i installed your camera my N1 still on X
good job, matter of time till all the bugs are ironed out
i was the first one to even attempt to get the CM6 CAM working on MIUI and i succeeded. The issue with CAM is not in the framework but in the actual libs, their is some serious dependency going on with libmedia.so and others. I havent tried to compile since the change to 2.2.1 as MIUI was based of 2.2 and that could have been the error. OP let me caution you, if you simply use the framework.jar from another ROM it will break a lot of MIUI functionality.
I will give it a shot and see if it works, If I am successful I will update my thread. Thanks

Hi. Anybody knows how zoom can be activated on CM 6.1.3?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App

zoom is not workin yet
The zoom will not be available in the stock camera feature until teh bootloader is cracked and drivers rewritten. Meanwhile Vignette should work.
Is there anyway a custom ROM (2.2 of 2.3) where the camera and the zoom DO work?
I can't find one, and I 'm very dissappointed by that, cause I'd like to move to e.g. 2.2, but a working camera with zoom and all that is an absolute must for me... And so far I can only find that in 2.1-ROMs...

Hi I'd like to know if it will be possible to have with stock camera feature a normal flash and not a torch like it was on SE camera...?
The cam for 2.2 works good but no zoom...it needs to write sources for the zoom,i think... but its even great to have a working cam and camcorder or not??? The devs do what they can and have a life outside of xda...i think their work is very good at this time
but its OT sorry,delete it if its wrong

other than that CM ROCKS
It takes many time to fix the cam for fully working,cause the Devs cant use drivers from SE...they didnt work on 2.2 or 2.3... they have to write ALL the drivers for cam and camcorder manually from the scratch... thats why it takes many time...

Or how I can get it to work...?????If the camera worked like froyo these roms would eb absolutely great but everyone uses the camera!!
Well, that's just Sony's sudden way of saying "***** you"
But I guess it's because the libraries in 2.1 up to 2.3 has undergone significant changes ==> making it hard to port properly.
Hmm I guess it's well explained by: drivers.
Every Computer itself is hardware. Your mobile phone is also hardware and the ccamera is a specific hardware. that every other component of your mobile can use that specific hardware "camera" - for example that your camera recording app wants to use your camera to record video or take apicture - drivers are needed for the operating system.
The stack of communication levels looks very minimalistic like that:
app (camera.apk)
operating system (android in version 2.1. 2.2 or 2.3 or 1.6)
driver (inside operating system)
hardware (camera)
app says: take picture with camera (meaning open shutter, let the light into the light sensor) - operatingsystem knows what to do and tells driver (open specific shutter, let the light into the sensor xyz) and the driver opens the shutter and lets the light into it... maybe you get it...
The point now is: You have a specific camera that needs a specific driver in your phone. And Sony Ericsson has this perfect driver for that and does not give it out to us. That's why their operating system "stock ROM" works perfectly.
For Froyo the devs found a similar driver or maybe (I don't know really) could make the SE-driver compatible for Android 2.2. I guess was hard work to make Android 2.2 also for hardware keyboard and so on compatible for our mini pro!! And it was also another such hard work to make Android 2.3 compatible for our mini pro. But the Camera driver is still the Problem and thus the Camera can not be used as used in Gingerbread that is Android 2.3. And CM7 is a modified Android 2.3 for Mini, and slades and sonybread are based on cm7 and thus camera still does not work as we all would like it.
You can not use the drivers from froyo (cm6) or Eclair...
Okay?
As I guess the devs are still working hard on getting it worked but it's not that easy. That's also the point why the most people use the CM6 edition (Froyo ones)
Okiddoki?
thanks for your replies ...... Hope they LL fix it soon.....I definitely don't wanna go back to stock
Be grateful that it possible to even take pictures! With the HTC Click/Tattoo we had no cam on 2.1 up for over a year!

Paul-xxx (dev of sonybread) said that he is working on the camera drivers right now, and afaik none of the devs inform us always about his projects, before he is ready for a release...
Oh, I didn't even know that paul-xxx was capable of modding drivers (no offense).
And from my experience most developers start developement threads when they start big projects (like modding drivers) as they can work together with other devs that way and avoid doing some work twice (teamwork instead of duplicated work). But in my mind there's a slight difference between ("real") devs and ("just") cooks...
