The first picture was taken with the last version of GB, while the other is captured with the latest version of ICS. In complete darkness, in the same condition they were taken both images. What's that you say?
Odp: Xpwria U Camera in Dark, GB vs. ICS
You turn off led, or maybe camera take picture too late and led turn off before camera take picture.

LED is on, the fact is set to auto in both cases. The camera is set to Normal ... Does that camera take later, I do not know ... All I know is a big difference. Any GB, and any of the ICS, the results are the same.
ics camera of xu sucks no doubt buddy.... gb camera was superb....
btw nice house .....

Yep it is true camera on ICS is sucks, iv been compared my xu and my wifes galaxy ace plus with GB here phone take a very bright and clean photos even without any light just flash on phone
Thanks for the house ...
I see the camera is worse ... Will there be an update to resolve this, or Sony will leave like tish?
There is a camera flash bug in the latest ics build..
Sent from my Xperia P
This was taken from ICS 6.1.1.b.1.10, that the last update via SUS or PCC. Now I flash 6.1.1.b.1.54 and I think that's the same thing. It seems that the camera LED in GB lights a little bit longer than in the ICS, and that's probably the problem, the flash goes off before the camera finished taking a picture ...

Am looking for a good camera app for xperia x10 any ideas
you didn't look very far..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=51041912
anyone tried fast camera and whats it like
camera 360 is a good one. same as FXcamera and Retrocam
my w995 takes better pics than my x10 ?
I swear by vignette great pictures and also enables auto flash for the phone.
Vignette, for my purposes absolutely the best
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
Anyone else has a problem with camera 360 where it says your phone has no zoom function?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Yes, I do.
Also have this with Vignette (I downloaded the demo to try).
They both seem to be superior to the stock app, however without zooming functionality, they don't make full use of their potential.
Vignette is the always best
Best Camera Option
Hy,im a newb on the site.
I have my Xperia X10i for about a year now,and i have almost everything done on it,started from 1.6,now here with all sorts of roms
i have from root to BL unlocked using latest kernels n basebands.
Personally,in my opinion,keeping stock froyo(2.1) is the best camera rom,because of the optimization...and then,best camera app i think is vignete....so far didnt find anything better.
Now im using M&Ms miui FXP kernel and i have to admit stock camera app is out of focus,hence,vignette is out of focus too..wether i use macro or any other mod...its so bad i need a revolver...and yesterday i rolled back to 2.1 froyo and the difference in macro is HUGE.now im trying to find some compromise.
1.Does any1 know if GB(2.3.3) has the same camera precision as older 2.1 froyo? i heard complaints with 720p recordings....
2.Can you use a mutual baseband between the 2?.Im pretty shure you can use 2.3.3 with .71 baseband,exactly the one that fxp kernel uses so you can "dual boot" via cwm the CAMERA ROM( some stock rom...) and your CUSTOM ROM(for normal use)
3.Can you mod 2.1 to work with .71 baseband???
Thanks to all dev`s who are working on these older phones even when theyre so outdated!!!<3
I am using HDR camera. It's worth of trying .

I think .71 would work only on 2.3.3 and not 2.1
I dont find my camera so out of focus. I am using cm7zmod and its working fine. I just compared pic between my X10 running cm7zmod and my dad's x10 running 1.6(donut lol).
The problem is you are using rom based on cm7 by fxp which has some problem with camera with focus I guess. You should use stock based roms which have original camera app/libs which is the best
btw 2.1 is eclairs not froyo

HDR Camera is awesome, I just wish my hands here more steady. I always get very slight smudges in the composite image due to jitters.
That said, I usually use Vignette with the 'image stabilisation' turned on. It doesn't do anything fancy other than use the motion sensor to wait until the phone's being held still enough to take the shot.
Vignette
It's the best for me.

I think only vignette has currently a auto flash function for X10, not that great but working.
Are there any major differences concerning the picture / video quality between these two firmwares?
Sent from my X10i
2.1 vs 2.3.3 vs 2.3.4 vs 2.3.5 vs 2.3.7 (except 1.6) = No difference if camera work properly on all versions.
Hum, I thought SE "improved" the camera with every new firmware release.
In that case, I think I'll go back to 2.1.
Sent from my X10I
2.3.3 is way better then 2.1.

The camera itself doesn't improve it still 8.1 mp if thats what u mean
Edit: yeah gb is better than eclair thats why it's an upgrade. It ain't gonna improve resolution though.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
well all i know is that camera focus speed in 1.6 is the fastest so far
Improved camera doesn't mean only more mpx.U have ****ty 5 mpx cams(HTC Hero) and much better 5 mpx like one on Samsung galaxy s.(this is only example).Somethimes in OS upgrades developers improves camera as well(better colors,less noise etc.).

That's what I was talking about.
I just asked because I read somewhere that 2.1 is better in camera quality.
Is it true?
Sent from my X10i
All I can say is are u guys expecting our phone to have 16mp camera by time ics arrives or somethin? Os update isn't gonna make ur camera have higher resolution. It just improves ui and how it implemented, things like that. I suppose with advance in tech it could make image clearer but the resolution ain't gonna change.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Everyone knows that the resolution won't change with software improvement since it's hardware related. But colour management, contrast, detail, etc. can, and that's what my question is about.
2.3 have faster focus speed~
camera feature change from eclair to gingerbread
what I know is gingerbread removes the smile detection and some other feature in xperia x10 which eclair have and works correct
Same image quality without some options(like smile detect)

Stock gb is very slowly and that's why stock eclair is better
just upgrade my Mini Pro to ICS 4.0.4 and root it using DragonClawsAreSharp's method (Thanks bro)
However, the original 5M pixels camera is reduced to 3.6M pixels in 4.0.4.
Anyone has the same problem?

2.Press menu key,something will pop out

How about macro in focus mode that was previously present in GB stock camera app?
It's gone in ICS stock camera. I can't focus small subjects..
If you selected auto scene recognition you can't change focus settings. Select normal scene.

I know that.
You can try it yourself. Choose Normal.
Now go to Focus Mode.
Macro was there in Gingerbread.
In ICS, no more macro..
I can't try, since i'm on a Mini with GB
But that sounds strange... nobody else complained about that, as far as I know.
I'm sorry, you'll have to wait for somebody else to help you

Return back to GB is a good point ! GB is smoother for Gaming and Multitasking unlike laggy ICS ! Or you can use any custom rom !
I'd recommend JS and Revo ICS
testsIs and
Go to your camera app--> tap the scene recognition icon--> select front camera. That should work. I'm using Neo V and I can operate front camera in this way.

Same here. Frontcam gone after using ics for a while. And we are not alone after a quick search on google.
Nothing much to do i think, not for me anyway as i have unlocked BL and rooted, and flashed.

But it's a rarity so can't blame even the manufacturer after the warranty
After all,the company doesn't have "Six sigma or totally defect proof phones "
Try and ask at the service center if warranty exists
