Hi guys,
I'll be shortly moving from my lil ol wildfire in a months time to this lovely powerful phone and I have a question about the camera.
I used to own the I8910 and on that you could shoot both slow motion and high speed footage. Can you do that on this phone?
Hope you can.
Thanks in advance.

Anyone else having a nightmare of a time with video recording? Compared to my original one x it's very choppy and loads of picture noise. Very very disappointed. Think I might sell it. I don't find anything else, apart from jellybean, worth the upgrade to be honest.

Hmmm i thought they might actually have tweaked the camera at least on the software side of things to make it better than one x but this turns out to be just the opposite ! Anyhow thanks because these days only real user opinions can be trusted not those reviewers !
I don't know what's going on, my HOX+ records very well... I have to guess if
1) users do something very wrong
2) there are some faulty devices out there
3) the want to troll the HOX+
Don't forget it's a smartphone and no DSLR, so you will need enough light for pics, but that's the same with all similar decives with this small sensors out there...
Mine is very very fast, get's warm but never in any way hot, battery life is great and recording of stills and video is excellent compared with other smartphones...

+1 for this.
No issues for me at all.

I love my one x camera. Stills and video are great. The one x+ stills are not quite as good but I can live with it. It's not bad by any means but the video recording is very poor. Can't live with it like this. Going to do a factory reset and see if that helps. If not I'm going to try and exchange it. I'm thinking I might have a faulty device.

Maybe a third party video recording app can fix this?
Any suggestions for 3rd party apps?
I shouldn't have to rely on them but it's worth a shot.

You might want to try this one.
Thanks. Will check it out. And report back.

Just checked the app you suggested. It's definitely better. Love the fact you can alter the bitrate. It seems to solve the blockiness and noise. Although im only checking on my phone as I'm not at home to try it in my tv. Unfortunately the chopiness is still there. Most annoying. Will have to check more when I'm home. You guys who are having no problems, what are you comparing the video recordings too? Which phones?

Just an update.
I've exchanged the phone for a new one and the stock video camera is still definitely far inferior to the original one x. Not sure if it's just a software problem but I assume it is. Can anyone else with both phones confirm this to save my sanity please.

I'll try it tomorrow and report back.

Almost guaranteed to be a software issue. HTC just looooooves to compress the living hell out of everything without giving an option to remove compression.
Thanks. Try and compare on a tv if possible

I have the same problem with poor choppy video. I did a side by side comparison with the original HOX and the video is much better than the HOX+.
Anyone else having disappointing video recording on the one x+?
And also has anybody got any 3rd party camcorder apps to recommend? I'm using LG cam at the minute but it seems a bit buggy.

Any problem for my part, j 'ai having made a concert of the group " the cranberries " and my videos photographs are splendid
Are you looking at the videos on a tv or just the phone?

Agreed...mine is terrible too. Most certainly the software. Trying Procapture, as the app listed earlier in this thread just crashes when I click on the advanced options.

Thank god I'm not going crazy. Thanks for putting my mind at rest. I'm a bit worried that not enough people have noticed this to bring it to HTC,s attention.
Hope they fix it soon or I might just keep my one x and sell this.
Shame because I love everything else about the phone.

My last phone was a HD2. Great phone (Windows).
New One X+. Great phone, but I'm new to Android. All OK (great), but why no date/time stamp on camera? This is a problem. Just a general moan about something so basic I never thought to ask. My mistake.
Living and somethimes learning.

Try the extreme camera mod, adds the ability to stamp date/location on the image and improves still and video quality locked at 30fps even in lowlight.
I should have said, I have had a all HTC (XDA) phones since my venerable SE T610: I'm not fickle, but need date/time stamp on photos - not an alternative App. Android please note.

I'm not quite following. Are you looking to print the timestamp on the photo itself? Otherwise, the data is always saved with the photo. If you have the stock camera and gallery (4.2, at least. I cannot remember the others), you can view it if you wish hitting menu -> details. If you upload it to an image site, then the data should also appear. Again, if you wanted it displayed on the photo itself, I do not understand why but can tell you that, yes, Android cannot do that by itself. But the purpose of apps is to expand the functionality and features regardless, so your refusal to use another app (that the user describes as possibly more useful) is a bit confusing.
I mostly shared that just because you seemed to be talking to the Android system, and I used the stock apps as an example. I do not know if HTC's camera and gallery made unnecessary changes.

HTCcamera JB plus Extreme v5.1 is a mod not alternative app, it added various and great features to your native HTC camera and one of them is the date/time stamp.
But the disadvantage of this mod is that you must have a rooted phone to flashed it.

A quick thanks is always greatly appreciated!
Thanks for all the comments and advice.
I want to print the date and time on photographs produced by the Android camera. There are features that camera has that I want to use. My phone (HTC One X+) is not rooted. It is standard O2 issue. I know that some apps can do this but the resolution of the pictures are reduced.

New to this forum but love the phone hate the quality of the pics.
I understand its set for 4mg pics but can be taken up to 8m.
Has anyone had luck with apps or fixes to give you over all better quality?
Thank you
Isn't the 4MP limitation due to the hardware?

It sure is! Have seen some mods to get it back to 8 but looking for more of a simple fix.
Then to that add a major marketing campaign that 4m is going to create a better pic...equals terrible pictures, focus and blur..
You must have a faulty device then. Because my quality is excellent. Picture was taken in auto mode.

I've been very happy with my picture quality. Sometimes it's like higher resolution for more zoom, but everyone I know has been impressed with how my pictures look.

Hey do you guys think HTC will eventually update the camera to fix its red I cultus exposure problems? In daylight, it overexposes and in low light it underexposes. This is my only real problem with the camera( aside from res)

Enough complaints should do the trick, every review you read online clearly states it. Let's hope so..

Exposure does suck. HTC, you reading this?

Example shots? Just curious I dont see it in the daylight or dusk photo's
Found this but I always tap to focus in pics and usually they come out really nice...
