which build can do portrait self ? - HD2 Android SD Development

i tired lots build from this forum , but always meet the problem that camera cannot do portrait self .
some builds really looks nice , but once you use portrait self , then the phone died suddenly. or some builds can not do portrait self , when you turn on this mode in camera ,nothing happen when you press button .
i just wondering ... is there any builds can do portrait self ?
PS : dont tell me that hd2 hasnt the front camera .. see this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AsZd4sEC2Y

Unless you just invented a front facing camera for hd2, i don't think ANY rom can.

man .... you dont know the camera on HD2 back actually can do this ...
suggest you to try RAFDROID HD 4.2 first

after i tried 7 new builds this week , i still decide to go back to use it again , everything almost can work well , includes the portrait self .
for the portrait self function , MCCM V8 and other 2builds also can do ,but not stable , easy to die after portrait self .....
really hope some one can solve this problem -_-

There is no possible way to do that.
Considering that the HD2 does not have a front facing camera.
The camera app may have the option, but the phone doesn't have the hardware.

just try this build yourself first .
also there is a video demo comes from HTC phone show . they use back camera detects your face ,then hold it for 1 or 2 seconds , the camera can take photo automatically .

even you mentioned the front camera , usually the front camera is a low quality one for video chat ,not for photography.
trust me , HTC sense really can do this . just hope some masters can refine the camera problem in sense 3.0 build , cos i found almost all sense 3.0 can not do portrait self ...

When you choose self portrait mode, you turn the back camera to you and as soon it detects your face it focus and automatically takes the picture.. only available in sense roms..

the HD2 does NOT have a front facing camera. look it up in any manual... no mention of it at all on the HD2, only a rear 5MP facing camera... and whats so different from turning the phone to yourself and taking a picture than and using a "portrait mode" feature? same thing my friend... nothing special or different
you do realize that the lady in the youtube video is the one pointing the phone to herself right? she is holding it with the rear 5MP camera facing her and shes taking a pic... where do you see a front camera working? also... i believe the DESIRE HD does have two cameras, front facing and rear facing.... so a desire rom would work on a desire and give you two camera views, you load a desire rom on your HD2 and you still have only one camera....
so no, the HD2 doesnt have a front facing camera, only 1 buddy use it as you want and please but you only got one to use on the HD2..

I really suggest you to get an English Tutor,
For now, i wonder why would you call it "Self Portrait" if you're using the Back cam.
After seeing the video, from what i come to understand is that you want the phone to automatically take photo when there is a smiling face, for that get any of the OFFICIAL STOCK desire HD build with base of 1.84 or 2.50, id suggest the latest 2.0 from sbryan in NAND or an HD build from boxmaxx.

yeah ~ i am not English speaking people ,but i can read other people's posts carefully first .
i call this function "self-portrait" ,because the name of this setting option in camera is "self portrait" , named by HTC ,not me ,please check your phone yourself.
the original desire HD phone can take your photo just by putting your face to the rear camera no need any smiling expression . for the latest builds , i tried MMCCM v8 build ,this function can work , but phone is easy to die after taken several photos . boxmaxx i aslo tried 2 builds , the rom has this option , but dosent work . so now i just re-installed the RAFDROID HD 4.2.

Yes i very well know that, own a DHD myself.
"self portrait" in HD2 forums is related to front camera as there is no front camera and there are many noobs asking for a FFC mod, also that feature of DHD is very new interms of software running on HD2, (on timescale of 2 years)
you could try pushing the camera libs and the apk itself from the rafdroid build to the froyosense build of your choice, its not necessary to be froyosense but just to mantain integrity as a failcheck.

I understand what the OP is talking about. And yes, I've used a few builds for sometime that allowed a self-portrait to be done easily. You'd just select face-detected camera shutter, select how many faces to be detected prior to the automatic shutter to be trigger and you're done. Like the OP said, it works with the rear facing camera (obviously you'd have to turn your phone around). Now, I've been using Sense 3.0 builds and I haven't bothered testing that feature. But as I recall the feature was working in quite a few Desire HD builds. It might just be me, but I found that feature somewhat buggy, as the focus didn't always work neatly. Still, I wouldn't be surprised If you found another non-sense camera app that had the same feature. Cheers.

I hadn't actually played around with the camera settings much until I spotted this thread.
It has some funky features, and the self portrait works.
I'm using [SD/Magldr] MccM HD V4.5 [DESIRE HD Sense] Perfect [kernel tyhung r5] but with the hastrain kernel so the data arrows flash.
So far I've been running it for a few months and battery use is good, and it's extremely stable.
