Hi everybody.
I don't think photos taken by razr are good...
I had a Galaxy 3 with 3MP camera and I used to took photos with 1,5MB. But, with RAZR, photo's size is around 2MB. Isnt it wrong?
How can i take photos with better quality?
Thanks
I originally thought my razr took bad pictures.. Turns out it was me.. Let the camera fully focus before snapping the picture and you will be amazed how well they turn out. If your on stock Gingerbread still the main box in the middle of your screen will turn green when its focus'ed, If you on Ice Cream Sandwish then in the upper left hand corner there will be a little box with a dot in the center that will turn green when its focused. Happy shooting
Maybe this will help

I don't have root to try it on,but if it works i will root.
Let me know if it worked.
Good luck
Well this may work on the stock system. But I have tried it twice on simplex 1.2 and each time it wouldn't let me reboot. Just boot looped. Don't know what to tell you other wise but I would still root your phone.. there is many good reasons to.
Bootloop

I have a galaxy note and rooted. Use root explorer to edit it and rebooted fine and all,but I don't see any difference in file size on it. The note pictures are exactly the same quality before and after, but I don't have problem with the note quality.
I think it might be permissions being wrong that is causing bootloop?
Thanks for the for letting me know about your results.
highly possible. I'm running bootmenu with a double Rom system do it's highly possible

My friend has the same phone as me, the Galaxy S2. His phone and mine are both running 2.3.4 gingerbread and are on T-Mobile. He bought his a few months after I bought mine and the camera is much better than mine, they both are on the exact same settings and his pictures are much clearer. when comparing pictures of the same thing he can zoom in on pictues he has already took with unbelieveable quality while mine blurs when zoomed in. Does anyone know why this is? My picures aren't bad quality but his are immense. Thanks in advance, Harry.
Edit: We were both on the exact same settings and compared photos almost identical to eachother, taken specifically for comparing. I'm currently on Lite'ning rom v6.1 but even before i rooted his camera was better.
Are you sure you have same camera drivers? I think that might be the case. I'm not an expert, but by reading people problems with camera I guess that might be the problem that you are having.
Check the settings between the 2. Maybe you have it set to macro focus, like my cousin did.

have a look where your samsung was made china or korea and your friends one check em both... im pretty sure therewas a problem with the china makes... if so go to samsung apps store and download camera upgrade
Firstly check that the lense is clean,finger prints on the clear plastic cover cause problems.

Both pictures taken by ensuring the GS2 is on a stable platform? Camera handshake might amount to something.

We have taken a lot of photos making sure they are fair and his phone is always MUCH better when we zoom in on the pictures.
i have similar problems. my photo, taken outside, is quite blurry and smudgy. this is one of the example.
i'm using the international version.
i havent root or change my rom.
my lens are clear, they have no fingerprint on it.
this is one of the example

But yes, I'm another person who is having the same issue. Same settings all throughout (not dynamic or movie, no macro, superfine etc.). Looked at the screen and it was clearly different. Zooming in looks terrible.
I know the sensation is fairly close to the rezound.. anyone think something like this may be possible?

Almost positive Joel will be adding it to his next BAMF release.
That would be icing on the cake.
Is this the same thing or different ?

That is kind of the same thing I had both mods on my sensation. Both looked good but I liked the BR one better.

I'm more excited about this mod than anything else with this phone. And that's saying a LOT.

This would be amazing on our phones! I too am more excited about this mod than any other. I use my camera a lot!
If it corrects for the pops and squeaks during video recording, then that would be icing on the cake. True 30fps recording would great too. I've had pretty severe frame-rate drops during recording.
I went ahead and installed the program and it appears to work. I get larger JPG images and 1080 video at higher bitrates. A few things though. The icons at the bottom are physically lower on the screen so the text on the bottom gets cut off. The button to the gallery doesn't work from video mode but appears ok from camera mode. The effects appear to work too. This is just my preliminary findings.
I'm on CleanRom 4.1 without any of the mods.
Edit: xsnapshot, I haven't noticed the pops and squeaks since the radio update in January. I didn't notice any on the test video I took, but it was only for 10 secs so I'm not sure. I'll take a longer video later and see if I can hear the pops and squeaks.
Edit2: Not sure why you linked to an Engadget post when the original post is in XDA. Here it is so you can get the app. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1533238
I installed this yesterday and haven't had any issues with it. I have not used my Rezound camera enough to really notice a difference. I guess I should have taken a before and after pick to see if the file size changed much.
I didn't flash it. Opened the zip up and pushed each item to my phone.
I did take a picture of some clouds yesterday evening. File size was 2.62MB
Installed this tonight, my photo file sizes are huge now, though I've not seen a huge difference in 1080p video quality. I'll do some outdoor testing tomorrow, to see if there is a difference.
I'll try to post some results if I get around to it
Sent from the Speed Demon known as the Rezound
Out of curiosity... can this be undone
if you reflash a rom without it, yeah lol...
this doesn't do anything for video, btw guys..in joels rom it didn't, anyway. still recorded at around 8mbps, wouldn't ever hit above that to get even near 20...photo's seemed to work uncompressed though; they're bigger in size
Anyone having issues with Instagram on the ICS leak(DaGr8's)? When ever i choose a pic from the gallery and it takes me to apply the filter the phone just becomes unusable. There is nothing that i can do and i have to pull the battery. Is anyone else having this issue or is there something that i did wrong?
it's not just you, and I'm on the stock leak.
Its not just us, its on the problem section on the app on google play
I don't have to pull the battery. I dunno if you guys ever knew this, but if you hold the power button down for around 15 seconds the phone will hard reboot (same as pulling the battery). You will feel the phone vibrate, then reboot like normal Save your battery cover , just hold the power button down.

You guys do realize the Instagram team most likely only had the latest GB to test their app out on, right? ICS is a very small percentage of Android right now.

No, the Google team themselves had access to Instagram before launch. Hugo Barra is a good example of who had it beforehand. I'm pretty sure if not positive all the Android devices that Instagram took a photo of were seeded by Google.

and I don't see why they would purposely exclude ANY ICS device but they did. Pretty dumb.
ok I gotta ask this question, what is so great about instagram? I see it over the tech forums, everyone here seems to go wild when it was released for android. I just don't get it, it's a camera effects program that uploads your photos and geotags them? is it really that big of a deal?

Its more of a social media app. you have followers and you follow people. Kind of like twitter but for pictures. Even though Instagram doesn't work, MyTubo works fine on ICS. If you dont know what MyTubo is, its pretty much the same as Instagram but only for Android users.
Ahh, that explains why I have no idea what it is as I don't use social media systems
Yeah locks up after applying filter on Note however on Gnex it works fine.
does the 1.0.3 update fix it or is there a way to fix it?

The whole reason for me to get a droid x2 is the for the camera. It sounds nice on the paper, but it takes a whole 3 seconds to start the camera. I mean, click the icon, count "1 Mississippi, ... ", sometimes even longer, like 5-8 seconds. My wife's DINC2 takes only a second to open the camera app.
I am still running stock rom, CM7 did not work well on my unit either. So, is there any other cure to this issue?
TIA

I always had this issue with my camera so I am sorry that I can't offer any guidance here...I was unsatisfied with the camera as a whole maybe try HDR or Pudding camera they are way better alternatives to the stock camera anyway, in my opinion

Maybe try the sd speed increase app from the app store? Might help. Just a thought...
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA
Out of the box, my camera wasn't all that fast either. But on my X2 with CM7, the camera is almost instant. It's a world's difference. Even taking pics or switching from the album and back to the camera is no problem at all. I do have the SD Speed increase to 2048, but that's all. Not extra scripts or anything else other than CM7.
Clear out everything, flash back CM7 beta and download the SD speed increase. It's gotta be better than where you are at now.

Check the "One Click Photo" app on Google Play
Atrix 4g, unlocked, rooted, custom rom.
When the camera app is opened it just shows white. But it takes pictures just fine. It does this with both cameras. This was happening on 2 different roms. When I flashed the second rom it worked on the first boot. but nothing else worked so I had to wipe the cache. After that all the apps work but same camera issue.
What two ROMs were that exactly?

XenonHD was one, I dont remember the other. Now I am just full of problems again. the aroma installer wont calibrate the touch, most apps stop working when started. I may need to run the aroma prep again. I think I flashed a non aroma rom at some point.
Can anyone suggest a ICS or JB rom that is the most stable. My own phone is an Galaxy S II and I never have this much trouble.

Exactly what I thought, this is exactly why I asked. You chould have at least read up on the ROM you are about to flash.
Video recording doesn't work on any ICS/JB ROMs, for reasons that have been explained countless times already.

Don't even think of comparing Atrix with SII. The fact that CM9/CM10 works on some other phone means next to nothing.

I know that. I know it would be different. but this is rediculous. I have to use romracer CWM to flash anything, the touch setup in the aroma installer dosent work, and now the touchscreen is plotting 1cm above my finger.
Tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836674 no improvement.
open the camera app, gallery fails. soft keys cant be pressed because of the calibration issue. This seems to be common between roms. Currently waiting for a charge for fastboot. going to full erase and start from the beggining. unless someone has a better solution.

Sounds like you have either a dieing digitizer, or a messed up PDS. Try looking for the pds fix, it's here somewhere. If that doesn't help, then I'm afraid it might be the digitizer.
