A question about the screen - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody,
I have a question about GS2 screen:
When I use the camera to take a picture, as soon as I press the shutter key to take the picture, the picture taken appears and then camera is prepared to take the next picture (assuming that review is off); my question:
the picture that appears immediately after taking the picture (which disappears after almost 0.5 seconds) seems to have a better quality from the picture I see in "Gallery" (to be specific, it's "brighter").
When I view the picture in my computer, I see the "brighter" picture , but when I look at it on my device, I see the "darker" one.
I'm not sure if I was able to make my point or not, but in a nutshell: when I review the picture on my device, it's darker than itself (!!!).
Thank you...

Nobody having the same experience???

Have you noticed this problem with Google Goggles?

I just tried to take a picture of something with Google Goggles. I cropped the image area to particular area of the subject I was taking a picture of, but the resulting image that Goggles stored and analyzed was actually about 1/2" lower than the area that was selected in the preview window. Has anyone else noticed this?
That's a pretty common issue with any non-SLR camera. The image on the screen is not always going to line up perfectly with what the lens captures.

Actually, if I just want to take a picture with the regular camera, it captures exactly what I'm looking at. But if I take a picture with Google Goggles, it's offset and is useless because if you're taking a picture of something fairly small, for example a paragraph of text that you want translated, it will take a picture and analyze the wrong paragraph.
This appears to be a known problem with Google Goggles 1.1, not specific to Galaxy S series phones.

That would only be true if the "viewfinder" was optical rather than digital.

[Q] Any way to avoid "white-fade shutter"?

Hello everyone,
The camera app on my Leo worked fine till few days ago, when I started to experience a "white-fade shutter" when taking pictures.
It works as usual - picture gets taken, but it's kind of weird. It goes like this:
1) I point my camera at the object
2) Camera app does the auto-focus
3) I press the shutter button
4) Instead of taking photo and showing me the outcome, the entire screen fades into white and when the picture is taken, it fades back. (I have no way of knowing, how the picture looks)
Please help, is there some registry hack or fix to avoid this?
Thanks in advance,
Pete

[Q] Camera picutres come out darker in gallery vs on screen?

Hey guys, I haven't seen this question asked outside of the CM7 Thread.
I have UnNamed 1.1.0 Which to my knowledge is identical to stock when it comes to the camera aspect.
When I'm taking a picture it will look great on screen but when I go review it in the gallery it looks almost twice as dark. Almost like the shutterspeed is too quick and wont let enough light in. Outdoors the problem isnt too persistent. Just indoors. I'm going to try another gallery app and see if that help but doubt it will. Anybody else notice this?
I was actually playing with the camera last night and noticed this.
Tried adjusting the ISO and exposure and it helped a little. I noticed that after viewing the picture though, it still turns out a few shades darker than it does in the live view. Not sure what thats about.
I'm seeing this issue as well. Any resolution?
I noticed this too, not only that but there is a slight delay from when you hit the shutter.
Seems like any movement screws up the picture as well.
I think the brightness discrepancy has to do with the screen brightness settings.... try setting your brightness way up, then take a photo and see if your exposure "gets darker".... it should be the same as how it looked when you took the photo...
I think when you take a photo, the camera app automatically brightens the screen to the Max... then when you go to review the photo, your screen brightness settings take over... since most of us use the phone NOT at the highest setting, it makes the exposure look dark....
The same theory goes for anyone editing photos... I always brighten my screen when I edit the photos...that way I'm not adjusting a photos exposure if it doesn't really need it... this needs more practice though as I don't edit often and could be wrong ...
If you're having lag in the shot... try turning off the anti shake option... you might think anti shake can ONLY be good but I find that my photos are fine without it.... but I also know to not try to take photos in dungeons...
Thanks ill try it

[Q] strange photopicture quality

attaches pic shows a carpet. it looks blury and kind of filtered - but i haven't selected one. all settings on "0", highest resolution and so on.
anyone has a hint why?
It seems the HOX+ has strong noise filters... that means if you take a pic in very dim light it will not show much noise but it will look a bit like a painting
both (noise and strong noise filters) is not good for picture quality, so your pic would be nothing in any matter... take a pic in good light, there the quality is very good for a phone... And I don't know how much your sample picture has been magnified....
btw: why did you take a pic of your carpet??
thanks for the answer. i took the pic in dimmed light, max zoom. even faces are pixeled like that - but i don't won't to paste my wife here
how can i disable the noise filter? i like most features of the camera - but good light isn't always possible.

Zoom is just digital zoom, so if you take a picture at widest setting and copy the inner part out of it on your computer does the same... digital zoom is crap, but only way today on smartphones...
you can't do anything about the noise filter. try another photo app, maybe it handles pictures in a different way - didn't test it until today so I don't know where the processing does take it's part...
i had google camera 4.2 on my desire hd - what was a very fine app. but my hox+ isn't rooted yet (2 days old) and i like the fast picture option.
thanks for your hints
still not lucky with the advertised "best camera" - qualitiy is so pixelated :/ on my desire hd all was nice and clear.
is this a software or a hardware "bug"?
comparing "normal" with "camera pro" i have 990kb vs. 4.5mb
normal:
pro-camera:
took max. resolution, no filters or other changes.
maybe someone can show a pic from his hox+
it's frustrating.
thanks for your help
regards,

[Q] Query with Camera and Gallery

Hi Folks,
I have been a user for HTC Camera as of now and now have been using S3 for about a year now.
The query I had to you guys is
1. When we take a click from HTC mobile camera and we see that pic in the gallery it's always full screen, covering the full dim of the phone. However when we do that with the Samsung Phone its always trimmed.
2. But, when we take the pic while recording a video, if we take the pic its always full screen and not trimmed. No matter what mode we take the pic.
Is this possible for us to have the same features on Samsung phones. I personally feel full screen is what we should view it and not trimmed version from either side.
Have attached few pic. First shows the pic while recording a video other one in the Landscape Mode but it's trimmed on the sides. Possible for us to have the same view as having from the Video.

it comes when you put the resolution to 16:9. you can also get it on 3rd party apps like jb plus etc.,
