is the camera focus problem in xperia s hardware or software one?

You can test it with different camera applications,if the out of focus persist that means it's a hardware problem.

There's a huge discussion along with samples regarding the same issue in the link below

Some users have said that the focusing has improved after using third party software while some have still faced the problem. I suggest you try it for yourself and conclude.
I just hope this is a software problem as the coming ICS update might resolve it. Else I'd really have to take a digicam along with my Xperia S everytime I visit a pub on a saturday night. >_<

Have you used 3rd party software to check if the focusing problem persists? If it does then it might just be a hardware problem.
I dont have the phone with me so cant really try that out.

what third party app is good?? is it software? does any of you try it in pubs? i guest it can be cause by the flash altough hope not.. hope its software.. and the veio quality is noisy anything i can do to make it better?

[Request] Skype Videocalls on Defy

Can anyone port new Skype to Defy so that Skype recognizes the back camera for videocalls ?
TNX in advance
Same here. Please someone...

Anyone knows a version that works (video) on MOTODefy ?
Anyone should descompile it, modify and re-compile..
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk
Its useless without a Front camera but i want it too
Send from my brain using Tapatalk
I want to use the video call function too
That's a good idea, i believe there will be a mod soon.
This would be very nice. Are there any skype mods for another phones already available and modded for the back-facing camera?
There were 2 threads about Skype with video working for Froyo/Gingerbread here on XDA forums. Can't find them now, were they deleted?
Yeah I tried a few cracked versions of skype, but I can only see the other party.
Got options for front and back cam, but it doesnt do anything
New official version of Skype is out and you can turn on video calls with back camera in options.
It doesn't work for my defy, but it does for some other devices that aren't officialy supported.
Anyone tried ?
I tried, but the back camera still dont work. We can just see the other person.
Hoping they will update soon Skype so we can videocall with our defy

In Defy Theme and Apps forum is a thread on a hacked app with extended functionality.
The tread
It works with suggested settings. Would like the official app to support this to. That way we can update easily. But it works.

same here, it force closes after using whatever camera app (I used stock camera and Camera 360, both resulted to FCs). I'm suspecting that it's a ROM compatibility issue. Haven't tried it yet. I'm on MotoGinger II.
Anyone else having same problems on other ROMs?
it worked like charm for me
currently on GB 2.3.6 CM 7.1

anyone else have trouble with the blur/tiltshift photos? When I apply the filter, the blurred part is just grey.
Also it takes an absolute age to use the Explore mode, search mode, or view another persons profile

[Q] Irritating problem with camera on Omega Rom v8.0 ICS

Hi all,
So I have this very irritating problem with my phone's camera. Everytime I take picture it displays a message "Tap anywhere to tag", so I click on X coz I don't want to tag. Then I go to the gallery and I don't find the image in there.
Second problem is, why the heck do I have 2 camera apps and 2 galleries???
I hope there's a solution to my problems...otherwise I'd have to re-flash with a newer version or try another custom rom.
Thanks in Advance.
Nevermind...I sorted it out...it seems that the second camera app is the one connected with facebook and without the zoom feature. Any ideas on how to remove it???

VSCO Cam - Now on the Play Store

Hi guys, VSCO is now released for Android. It's a very popular and good iOS camera app. I've tested it a little in low-light conditions, and the result is positive. It takes better photos (in low-light conditions) than Sony's camera app. It's free, so go ahead and try it! You can also share your photos taken with it here, so we can see how well it does

It's over 21:00 (9 PM) here now, so that'll be impossible I'll do it tomorrow if I remember it, or maybe someone else can do it?
The filters are nice though. It's not Instagram type of filters, but more like "mood" filters. You can also adjust the filters, so if you like it soft you can do that or if you like it to be more instagram-ish, you can do that too.
What device are you currently using again?

Whaaat?! So.. you're literally living in 1996. I would've snapped a long time ago Just played some more with the app, and i found the import button. I played with some photos taken on a clear day with my Note, and dude, the results are great (when you have quality photos to begin with). I'll try to take some usable photos with the Ultra tomorrow and see if the app is still fun.
i like this vsco cam app it is really better than any cam app i used, this might prove to me that our camera quality problem might be a software issue

And don't forget to download the free filter packages (slide to left and go to the store). There are three free ones if i'm not mistaken.

Yup! Don't forget the other tools though. Tap the "arrow" when you're in the filter browser, and you'll be able to adjust everything. You have probably discovered it yourself, but it's kind of hard to find, so i thought i should mention it
does anyone know where the pics are stored? I would like it to default to my removable sd card.

Seems strange we have to manually transfer each and every pic that's taken over to the gallery (and can't set a default "save" location)..

yep. I bet they just used software to convert it to android... LOL
Indeed I tried it and that is annoying.
In any case, I am a photography fan and love my sony NEX-6 so the phone is not a camera for me. Still amazes me that Sony, that has been innovating so much (just came out with the first full equipped mirrorless Full Fram cameras), gives such a bad camera for the ULTRA phone.
This looks good

One of the unique features of VSCO Cam is its emphasis on a community of photographers and creatives. Users can follow other VSCO members, share their own photos, and discover new photographers and images through the app's curated collections and journals. VSCO Cam also offers a subscription service, VSCO Membership, which provides access to additional presets and tools, as well as exclusive content and educational resources.

[Q] Gallery App Problem !!!

I Generally use my Xperia Rom or SuperAfnan's SuperSense Rom but the problem I faceing is something weird that I feel.
My gallery Showing No photos/Videos.
And this is not for the First time , I had this Problem so many times ago also.
In 60/100 cases I had this problem on supersense Rom and I am pretty sure that something is conflicting and after this problem I need to reflash the whole Rom, that is the single solution for me till now.
Can anyone solve this ?
use QuickPic
That infamous gallery bug? Yes use a different gallery app like QuickPic.
It's been fixed in SS 4.0, I might make a 5.0 version later.

But after that I feeled that my music app showing 0 files, galley app showing 0 files.. screen shots are not saving due to gallery... Then whats app stoped working...reinstalling the app solved it..
Now strongly wants to know why this is happening?
Because this is not for the first time.. I had suffered this problem 15+ Time on supersense. And 2-3 times on xperia Rom.

It's because you either aren't using the latest version like I recommended, or didn't format all partitions before installing the new version like your supposed to, that's why its happening. The previous build had a known gallery issue so the correct thing to do would be to download the new version.
As for the xperia ROM, I don't know. Shouldn't you know any ideas what you think caused it in your ROM?

Ya...I got it because I have the older version SS 3.3 so It's causing the problem.right?
But I think in my Rom It's due to delvik and buggy gallery app.
Anyway how you fixed in your Rom??
