Hey, I found the stock camera of Gingerbread XXILA 2.3.6 has larger view in Camcorder mode. It is very nice, but I use Hacked Camera which is based on older Camera.apk and gives me better birate & sound.
Here are screens what I mean:
Hacked Camcorder:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
XXILA 2.3.6 Camcorder:
You see video view is larger, ugly gray borders do not cover area.
Same applies the Camera (not Camcorder):
I want to remove such gray borders. I glanced onto camera.apk and found some UI elements, but I am not sure it is safe to modify this
You can't remove it in picture mode. The reason for that is the aspect ratio. 8mp still picture is 4:3 while 720p/1080p video is 16:9.

But in video yes it seems - I do not know how. Also in 2.3.6 camera picture is taller and takes really full screen area, not few mm fewer than previous cameras
All you need is to change some PNGs in Camera.apk !! As you can see, the alpha(transparency) of the PNGs has been increased in the 1st screenie. Take your APK, decompile it, increase the alpha or transparency of needed PNGs and recompile it without signing. Thats it!! I changed my stock camera app to the CM one in this way!!.
Hope it works!!

I would like to have this wallpaper that's featured also by the new 8.9" Galaxy Tab.
Is there anyone that can share it?
Thanks a lot
I think you just have to set one of your 7 available Touchwiz homescreens to look like the wallpaper you wish to have.
Then take a picture of this homescreen with the stock GS2 Screen Capture app (Home + Power buttons).
Then set this picture as wallpaper.
Don't know about the rendering quality of this wallpaper but shouldn't look so bad.
Maybe it's worth a try.
Good luck
that looks good phone
If you only want the background picture of the displayed homescreen, then it's available in the stock wallpapers of the GS2.
If you want your background picture to look like the homescreen shown on your picture, you can set one of the 7 available Touchwiz homescreens to your taste, then you take a picture of this homescreen with the stock Screen Capture of the GS2 (Home + Power button).
Then you set this picture as wallpaper and you're done.
Hope I did understand what you wanted. If not then ignore this post and forgive me .
Have a good time with your galactic überphone
EDIT : sorry for this double post. My bad
Whoa, thanks... I didn't notice that this background was actually among those available by default... guess I'm quite an idiot but hell, I didn't look almost at all inside that stock wallpaper gallery... I always use some live wall's I found "here & there"!
Ok thanks a lot!
What does this do?
Following this tutorial will set your wallpapers to use each pixel of the screen. Wallpapers will be clear and sharp!
Why?
Why have a 720P screen when you can't even have high res wallpapers?
Setting wallpapers via gallery or android menu does not yield high resolution, it has the wrong crop ratio and it makes the image blurry.
Where to find free high res wallpapers?
I have attached a few images that i liked which i got from InterfaceLift.com for free.
(I had to crop the images to 720x1280 to fit the screen of the Rezound.)
How?
- Find images on interfacelift.com and download them as HDTV>1080p
- (optional but recommended) Use photoshop or similar prog and set image crop to 720x1280 then crop and safe as highest res possible.
- You can also crop within WW by using >set>Crop Portrait (cropping in PS and using set>exact seems to look better)
- Move wallpapers to phone
- Download Wallpaper Wizardrii from the market (free)
-Open app, >menu>preferences>advanced> check HighDef and set HD Image Size to 1280.
- Go back to main screen in WW and browse/swipe to find wallpaper of liking and hit "set", then hit "Exact"
- Enjoy and show off your screen.
Here's a screenshot.

What's the difference between the trial and paid versions?

Hey there, the app used to allow us to use pictures in our native resolution. Now I have to crop the images, I can't use 768x1280 images

It is unfortunately not possible to read out the resolution of the device.
This is why the pictures always on the percentage measure of 1920 X 1080 cut.
As a percentage, that is why in order to save memory on your phone.
In other words, your image is cropped in the resolution of 1280 X 720.
I first thought that let the user set the resolution manually.
But unfortunately most of it would be over foerdert.
Thank you very much!
Too bad, got to find another app for my needs then. My lockscreen images are fit to 768x1280, the way your app works the images get cut off on the top and bottom, cutting off texts and icons. Also, the images start to look pixelated because the 720x1280 images are stretched to 768x1280.

Are you using the wide angle camera, the front camera or the main camera?? The main camera is 16MP and the other 2 are only 8MP.
It does look like you are using the wide angle camera here so the image wont be as good
Hi fellow Austrian
As the G5's cameras support the Camera2 API, you might wanna try manual mode. Using it, you are able to manually set ISO, shutter speed, white balancing and focus, while the last two parameters still contain an "AUTO" function. You can turn it on in the overflow menu.
Here are some helpful pages that helped me
- ISO/shutter speed
- ISO/shutter speed cheat sheet
-White balance
~Firefrost
That's the worst contrast I've seen in a while. My first thought was that maybe the lens is dirty?
@Seansmit17 yes im using wide angel but if i dont use it still pictures looks like 8 bit. i will post more pics tomorrow.
@Firefrost Servus i will try it thanks but i want to use simple mode.
@ torax242 no its not.
Still same, is this looks like a hardware problem? Should i send it back? There is no settings or something.
sent back to amazon.... end
So I recently acquired an LG K51s, because my old Sony broke due to water penetration.
One annoying thing I really dislike about the phone (apart from the rubbish skin LG uses), is the simple fact when I go into horizontal mode the phone cuts off part of the top screen to make it look seamless (because it has a hole-punch camera cutout).
Now I really don't mind the camera, provided I can use the 6.55" 20x9 720p screen. So I'd like to know, if there a way I can permanently disable it? I know Nova launcher and YouTube can somehow bypass it and use the whole screen.
Thanks in advance!

So this is kinda useless. But I'll keep trying nonetheless!
I suspect the problem is with com.android.systemui. I have managed to extract the APK and will be looking around to see if I can somehow disable a custom setting in System UI Tuner. If that doesn't work I may have to edit it manually and see if I can overwrite it, somehow...

Settings app giving me the stupid black bar (horizontal)
Same issue in Chrone as in the Settings app (horizontal)
But any app that plays videos (in my case it's YouTube) has the option to remove the black bars (horizontal)
Why is no one giving me ANY useful input?
I can even upload the 90mb systemui apk if, anyone has the knowledge and experience to go through it.
Mods, what the on earth is going on???
