[Q] SamsungCamera_HX-MOD - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

THE CAMERA MOD FOR THE INTERNATIONAL S3 WORKS IN OUR PHONE?

????

I tried it out on the i747M from Rogers all 720p modes work, the 1080p mode on works in fine mode, this is with stock and deodexed diet ics rom... So no 100% sure if it's for ours but for now I can deal with 1080P fine which is 20 megs almost and same for 720p... other wise I haven't been able to benefit from the 30 meg/sec 1080p....

has any one tried this on a t999?

[Q] CosmIcEXperia v3.2 camera issue

Hi, im using CosmicExperia rom for my LG Optimus ME. I dont know why, but the camera is now much slower (i mean the framerate). In my stock froyo it had much better quality. The problem is when i capture indoors videos it lags because of lack of light, but my old stock camera in froyo didnt have theese problems. Is this fixable?
Thanks.
Imho this can have thre reasons:
1. Somehow, your device got a lot slower with CosmicExperia rom.
(run a benchmark to compare)
2. The rom records with higher bitrate -> more cpu intensive -> lags
(compare the bitrate of similar videos between your old and the new rom)
3. The rom's camera driver is wrong/****ed up
.
Hmm, thanks. Well i think it is the 2nd. option . Nevermind, i flashed another rom more suitable for my device . Thank you

[Q] Should buy WT19i ? ( LWW )

Guys i am thinking of coming from Samsung Ace to SE Live with Walkman ...
From what i can see .... its development is going great ...
Can you guys please comment on screen size ... like is it comfortable to use ??
Ace has 3.5 inch n LWW has 3.2 inch..... Shouldnt be much diff. rite ??
Other than that .... its hardware config is WOWOWOWOW.......
So i will be really helpful if you guys can comment about screen size and also some other cons if present ...
Every person is different, so I can't say about screen size.
I am actually playing some games with great quality on my LWW.
The loudspeaker...kicks ass!
About screen quality...the screen resolution is the same, so DPI(pixels/dots per inch) is a bit smaller on LWW.
After some months, LWW will receive Ice Cream Sandwich update, something good.
Now, the bad sides...
Battery. Depends on your usage, but quite weak battery on it, never had more than 2 days on this phone. I usually reloaded battery every night, but I haven't tried to make 2 days without reloading on custom ROM. Why...I have no idea
Can't think more at the moment, will let you know more if I remember.
for me, stronger proc and double ram
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4111&idPhone2=3724
It is far better than ace but well yeah the battery life it's not great I will not change tough
this really depends on how you would use the phone.
but i can definitely say that LwW has a much better performance compared to Ace...
Advantages of LWW over Ace:
1. Extra Loud w/out distortion
2. 720p video recording
3. 4.0 promised ice cream sandwich upgrade
4. 1ghz cpu (200mhz higher than ace, plus Adreno 205 over Adreno 200)
5. 512mb ram (2x ram of ace)
6. Better launcher (in my opinion)
7. Dedicated Camera button
8. Dedicated Walkman Button (editable through root)
9. Higher Pixel Density
Advantages of Ace over LWW:
1. 3.5 inch screen
2. Tougher Screen (Gorilla glass over scratch resistant glass of LWW)
3. A bit higher capacity battery
4. Thinner than LWW
Thanks a lot guys .... and ya about battery ... Ace's battery aint that good either ..... 1 day max ..... or 1 and a half if less usage..... so battery aint a issue .... as long as it passes my college hours successfully............ ....
My last ques ( promise ) : Samsung Ace was able to be restored to original stock firmware ... u know so as to claim warranty again ....by flashing through odin.... everything became stock again ... recovery ..kernel ....etc..
Can same be done with this fone ... ofcourse with different software...
And does it have seperate site for Stock Firmwares like sammobile.com for Samsung ?

you can flash back to generic stock using wotan server and if you install cwm before changing the kernel you can back up the stock that came with your phone.
mmmm one thing is certain that we forgot to mention the ace is easier to flash and do stuff. my wife has one and well i know it is easier than my lww or at least it is completely different to mod.
yeah.. its easier to flash...just put one file in odin n flash away..... also its roms already include custom kernel.... is that so here also ??
Nope it's not the same, with Sony phones you will need to unlock the bootloader first if you have a branded sim locked phone most certainly you will have to pay to unlock it to be able to flash custom kernels.
Once you have the boot loader unlocked and access to fastboot you need to flash the custom kernel and then from the cwm that comes with the kernel you flash the rom.
After a while you get used to it
On the other hand going back to stock is more like using Odin.
I have been reading user reviews .... many of them says they have restart problem .... Can i know if that issue is fixed with custom kernel and rom ??

Some corrections.
ICS is not out yet.
Live with Walkman doesn't have secondary Mic for noise cancellation.
According to me, there are no smartphones that take 2 hours for full charge.
Video calling on GSM network was never possible and on 3g android doesn't have it built in.

@Someguyfromhell,
-->ICS is not available yet but we can able to upgrade to Android 4 according to SE blog
-->The built-in secondary microphone is used for active noise-cancellation (you can verify this in gsmarena check in telephony section)
link here
gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_live_with_walkman_review-review-669p4.php
-->But it took me complete 2hrs to charge the phone fully i.e 100% (i will let the phone discharge completely until it turns off automatically and after that i will charge the phone is that the problem for me to to charge complete 2hrs)
-->Video calling that's the reason i mentioned in con's sections
if i am wrong please correct me because no one is genius in world there is something that you can learn from others

I have GTA III on my LWW, even though my LWW is overclocked to 1.3 Ghz, I do experience only small lag and that is only sometimes.
Game itself runs good, mostly without lag, sometimes only a bit of lag.
Other HD games...like what? I might have played a lot of games, some of these might be HD, but I can't remember names.
Some people reported that upgrading to .62 messed up their camera... that is they are not able to focus and not able to take clearer pics .... did that happen to any of you guys ???

I cannot find this secondary microphone on this phone, neither can I see any information from official white paper.
And yes, ICS will come some time also.

Galaxy tab 10.1 JB ROM

Hello.
i have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 WI-Fi 16GB (P7510) and would like to flash a JellyBean rom on it. However, i didn't find a stable one in which all basic features like the Cameras work. the problems with ics roms that i tried, is that the device runs games really slow and choppy, even when it's overclocked to 1.4 ghz. my Galaxy s 4g 959v plays them better and smoother. i would like to know if there is a stable and fast JB or ICS rom with all basic features intact, and overall fast gaming performance and compatibility.
Thanks.
I've tried Ganborou and it works fine. there's no jelly bean rom that has everything working, yet.
you can try this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765254
all is fine except front camera wich is not working.
This one works well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907771
Both cameras work, too. Only thing that doesn't work (YET!) is the microphone

1080p

Hi,
I just installed Neutrino 2.9 and I was surprised to see the video camera is only up to 720p
I need a stable and fast ROM that has 1080p video recording (and everything else working of course).
Fingerprint and docks are not important to me
Any recommendations?
Thanks!!

Neutrino does have a flashable camera addon that does 1080p but it is a waste. Framerates are not as good as compared to 720p
Sent from Moto Atrix 4g on Neutrino 2.91
I've made some readings about 1080p lately and all i could find is atrix can record [email protected] and 24fps is average. so the experience is not smooth and fluent.you might want to stick with 720p
Personally, I don't get the point of 1080p on a phone. It's still a phone. It won't make higher quality videos if you increase the resolution, it will just make larger files.

[Q] Best ROM for Video Recording

Looking to use my old tbolt to record band performances. Currently using a 4.04 rom (can't recall which one) and am only getting 12fps at 720p. Wondering if going back to a Gingerbread rom might improve performance. Literally nothing else needs to work, just video. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
