Ok, thankyou.
[Xperia Play General] Red_Kop:
Weird, followed your excellent thread and done a reinstall but still blank.
[Xperia Play General] kenshindono:
yeah weird... you are sure that everything is available on mass storage mode ?

if it's the case then maybe your data are hidden on the device...

Check if there is folder without a dot at the start of the name (non hidden folder)

put new files and see what happen

Run a chkdisk on your SDcard with windows on mass storage mode

get andexplorer and check if everything is available through this app

windows might be infected by a virus that put your SD in a weird state

do a virus check...

Last if nothing above works: media transfer mode on your xplay> go to printer and other device on PC > right click > properties > hardware tab > properties > driver > uninstall driver > follow mtp app guide again to reinstall the driver

after that report back here
[Xperia Play General] Red_Kop:
Yep, all there. Phone is also detected fine in Media Transfer Mode in PC Companion (as R800).

Will do the rest when I get a moment, thanks for the help.
[Xperia Play General] Red_Kop:
I'm doomed to use Mass Storage Mode! :eek:
[Xperia Play General] DeadlyDazza:
Why doomed?

You want to get files from your PC or laptop to your Play, right?

That's what mass storage mode is for. That's what I use.

The only time I need to be in media transfer mode is to communicate with the Play with adb, having nothing to do with the SD card.

What exactly do you want here??
[Xperia Play General] kenshindono:
Maybe he didn't figure out how to mount the sd card to after choosing mass storage mode.

Remember you need to mount SD for accessing the file on the computer after setting mass storage mode
[Xperia Play General] Red_Kop:
Ok, I guess it is not that big of a deal. Was just curious to getting it working as it should. It's not really gonna impact me.

Thanks for all your help kenshindono, your info and posts are very helpful.

Unlike DeadlyDazza who seems continuously rude and obnoxious. :confused:
[Xperia Play General] DeadlyDazza:
Not really, i could understand if you had a crippling problem which prevented you from connecting your device for transfers.

But that's what mass storage mode is for, as far as I know, media transfer mode is for pushing with adb & using SE's media transfer PC software.
[HTC Incredible S] blaze23:
After installing the gingerbread update my skins arent working properly. Previously downloaded skins have disappeared and are listed twice in htc hub, one saying installed the other not, and when I apply a skin the browser is no longer themed and has the stock htc look no matter what.

Assuming this wasn't meant to happen, does anybody know what the hell is going on. :confused:
[HTC Sensation] silverwolf0:
Can anyone with a Sensation post some 1080p clips on Youtube, or maybe upload an untouched version on some filehosting site? I heard they did some wizardry and drastically improved the video compared to previous offerings. Pretty please with sugar on top? :p
[HTC Sensation] solsearch:
I second this :)
[HTC Sensation] PygoShlee:
I'm just trying now, not sure what the outcome will be :D

I cant post links as my post count isnt high enough..

Only way I can think is going to YouTube and search my channel 'PygoReviews'
[HTC Sensation] PygoShlee:
Theres a couple on my channel uploaded, then a longer one is on its way once its uploaded. Includes filming my fish, my chameleon then going outside, so different lighting perspectives.

Ok. Thanks.

Apparently search only works if you've uploaded >2 vids. Who knew?

Channel Search

You can search for YouTube channels in the same way that you search for videos. All user channels with greater than two uploads are indexed in search results.

Could be worse. Check out this issue with the SGS II

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QznuN_ZUh-A&NR=1

Some sort of random pink spot in the middle of every pic/video. Apparently quite a common issue there. New firmware doesnt fix it either.

Not saying I don't agree with everything you said about the Sensations videos. Exposure looks likes its being controlled by someone with a palsy. All over the place. Disappointing really.
[HTC Sensation] charnsingh_online:
Wow man, just read ur posts, they are all bashing HTC Phones/ Loving SGS Phones. BTW when u have sun setting on fiels it really gives the ground a pale yellow colour so if the video shows that it isnt a bad thing also when u limit the area to just the grass it focuses in that frame and adjusts the ISO and Exposure if its set to auto. So imo showing pale yellow colour when the sun is setting is a good thing, I know my Sony Cam takes the lighting into action unlike my nexus one cam who would always try to dim the lighting to the minimum thus kicking out the colours due to lighting, About SGSII or any other phone audio being better u can just thank your fanboyism for such judging. This is the first time i heard anyone sayin Mono audio sounds better than stereo :/. The audio might not be one with studio quality fidelity quality, but still awesome for a phone video Sensation video was equally smooth, its just that the guys hands were shaking, u can't blame your wife for becoming pregnant when u forgot to use a condom. And like u said Moderators dont give a rat **** ;)
[HTC Sensation] PygoShlee:
Just putting up another of mediafire. Off to work again so will post up a link later. Its outside today, so be prepared for alot of wind noise :D Bloody weather.
[HTC Sensation] PygoShlee:
Here you go people:

[HTC Sensation] Bratag:
Looked ok and sound was alright despite wind. Now question. Does the video camera have any whitebalance options at all? There was quite a lot of washout of the colour in bright light. I would like to be able to set whitebalance to sunny perhaps to combat that kind of thing.
[HTC Sensation] solsearch:
Yes, I saw it in a video and just checked the manual where it's listed and gives the impression that it is available (the photo only options mention "photo only" and white balance doesn't have that comment).

Just saw it, seems quite nice. Not as much detail as I'd like but more than decent. And definitely better than the first 720p videos for phones (those were absolute rubbish). Hey, it's even better than some "1080p" tv shows I've seen (you know the ones, where it seems the FullHD was achieved through very aggressive warpsharp algorithms).
[HTC Sensation] pakraider:
Outdoor clips look good! but I'm worried about indoor / low light.. The samples from even the G2X looked smooth in very low light, but the Sensation clip looked to have the same awful judder that my Nexus One has.. :(

PygoShlee, if you would be so kind, can you take a low light / indoor night time video in 720p and see if it's smooth?

(G2x clip for comparison in a dark room: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZnP23jd_A4)

[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
The quality is damn good,here a couple of good sample videos which show the tru power of Sensation's camera:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESHwehC6044

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjbrRhUkkcE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YPH6LnbN4Q

One thing more i downloaded all of these videos and upon checking the details i found that all the videos hava steady 30 fps(in one video it is 29 though which is not bad either) with a video bitrate between 6500 and 7000 kbps and the audio bitrate is 160 kbps.

Note: Dont forget to change the resolution to 1080p when watching on youtube :D
[HTC Sensation] pakraider:
bro, you could be one of the first to show the world Jinnah Super in smooth 1080p, courtesy of Android. :)

Outdoor quality is amazing.. I'm still worried about slow frame rate / jerkiness in low light though.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
One thing I notice in all those vids is how the exposure fluctuates too much. It seems to overcompensate, either too dark or too light, and then shift back the other way a bit too far, before settling down. It's quite disconcerting to watch when there's any panning with different light levels. I assume this is a SW issue, and hopefully they'll issue an update, or worst case once the bootloader is unlocked the great devs can tweak it.

Just as a comparison here's a panning video with varying light levels shot on a Galaxy S. Note how stable the exposure level stays, without big fluctuations.

[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
how much space does the 1080p take up? Any ideas on the MBs per minute?
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
Lol!Its not jinnah super bro,i havent got my sensation yet,i just picked some of Sensation's 1080p samples from youtube and posted here as everyone was asking about the quality,though surprisingly its available in Pakistan(as an xda member told me),first i treated his statement as a joke but when i personally visited there(Hafeez Centre Lahore)i was surprised coz it is available there(i even used it for 10 minutes),but the problem is they are demanding 76000 Rs. for it and at the moment i am 10000 Rs. short(even if i sell my lovely Xperia X10),hope i will cope with that difference soon or the price will reduce soon,then i will surely buy it and will show you Jinnah super,Super Market,Beverley Centre in 1080p :D

[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
It takes about 43 to 45 Mbs per minute if u are recording a video in 1080p.
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
thanks. Might have to invest in a 15/32gb card...
[HTC Sensation] akdebest:
Yeah I bought it the moment I got to know its available. Been waiting for this for so long.
[HTC Sensation] pakraider:
lol bro I know it was just a random video, I meant to say you could become the first to show jinnah super in 1080p :)

76000 is way too pricey! Would be cheaper to buy it from T Mobile when it comes out and get it unlocked. I can help you out with that if you want.
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
Oh i see my bad.

Really bro tell how can u help me coz frankly speaking the reason i havent bought Sensation yet is not only because i am 10000 short but the main reason is(like you said)76000 is way too pricey,will wait for your reply.

[HTC Sensation] jboy15:
DAMN! that is so ugly but i dont know why the quality is so nice during daytime. but yea its all good for me i dont record video at night anyways..
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Here's a SGS2 sample at night. Looks much better than your Sensation sample.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKw9Sl7El5Y

I will most likely get a Sensation, but from what I've seen posted it's video performance isn't as good as I would like.
[HTC Sensation] mkrl:
I've used both quite a bit (own a Sensation, mrs has the S2), the Sensation's video quality is poor, the best way to describe it is "wobbly image", I'm wondering if it's something to do with image stabilisation and can be improved in software. I had planned to use the video camera more after upgrading from a Nexus S but it's definitely worse.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Where are you playing it back, on the phone, a PC or TV?

Just asking because I see lots of the classic jelly wobble on YouTube vids at full screen that don't show up at all in a smaller size. I'm thinking it's a speed issue with my PC.

What bothers me most about the Sensation videos I've seen is the auto exposure. It's way too jerky and often over compensates. Scenes are frequently over or under exposed temporarily, particularly when panning. Other phone cams are much smoother.
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
everyone stating that the sgs2 has much better quality is full of BS

check here please : Camera comparison: Samsung Galaxy S II vs. LG Optimus 2X vs. HTC Sensation

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qphqBBke_g&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

the sensation kills the competition !
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
No, we're not all full of BS. There's more than one video on YouTube. Many opportunities for comparison. I've seen that one, and totally agree in that sample the Sensation looks better. But I'm not ignoring all the other posted videos that show a different story. I don't have either device to test myself, but a poster above does and he seems to agree with the strong YouTube evidence.

I'm not a hater or defender of either phone. I'm not an insecure teenager. I just call it as I see it. I want to know the objective strengths and weaknesses of each device. The more data and evidence the better from my viewpoint.
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
Lol!r u kidding all me,have u seen the video whch i posted yesterday(post#43),see in then paas this so called judgement....
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
Dude was it necessary to repost the link which i posted yesterday?
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Yes, I watched it. I still have what you describe as a "so called judgement" that the SGS2 video performance is better based on what I've seen so far. It's difficult to compare videos taken under very different lighting conditions, but the auto exposure and low light performance of the Sensation seems relatively weak.
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
LMFAO,different lighting conditions!!!r u serious mate,the video was shot at the same time,according to you auto exposure is weak,really?what about those washed out colours and blurrness of that cheap plastic copy cat(SGS 2) of gay iphone?
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Well, yes, I am serious, mate!!! ;)

See what your "so called judgement" is about this comparison. Note the poor auto exposure adjustments of the Sensation, and the relatively washed out colors.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4tBZXxo40g

As I said, I will very likely get the Sensation. I want it to be better than any other phone in every way. So far, that doesn't seem to me to be the case. So be it.
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
I think you are colour blind :D,coz everyone else is of the opinion that Sensation colours are the best,infact the term washed out clearly applies to gay phone#2(SGS 2),and in my view Sensation is already better then SGS 2 in every aspect,but like i said everyone has his own opinion and i respect that.

[HTC Sensation] jboy15:
sensation is better you cant even the red lines on sgs2 but yeah if its in lowlight then sgs2 took it. just sayin but daylight there is no way the sensation going to lose.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Yep. SGS2 shows quite a bit less noise and pixelation. Certainly a difficult test, and not a lighting setup I would be shooting in, but it does show a difference between the two.

Here's another one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD2TkFr5yRA&hd=1

The Sensation looks pretty good in terms of clarity. I do still see a very obvious auto exposure issue when it changes the exposure very abruptly, whereas the SGS2 is much smoother and easier to watch. This aspect seems like a pretty consistent flaw in many of the sample videos. I've actually written to HTC about it with examples. Hopefully they will adjust it in an update.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
There are many aspects to video recording. It's true that the red is more saturated in the Sensation vid, and perhaps more pleasing, but which is more accurate and better captures the actual scene? Hard to know without being there. If it has a tendency to add red to flesh tones that might not be as pleasing. Have to check that.

Look at this sample for another day time test. Pay attention to the exposure of the bus and how it fluctuates, even when it's still and the scene isn't panning.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESHwehC6044

Those abrupt, extreme fluctuations from under to over exposed are not good. It's a real mixed bag at this point, and hopefully they can improve it. We'll see.
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
Another video comparison between SGS 2 and Sensation:

SGS 2:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjgLXwu1qJc

Sensation:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym43sH-ibng

See the colours and sharpness and also note the difference in audio quality,its evident who is better!!!

Regards....
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
We just see, and hear, differently.

Notice the more extreme exposure fluctuation of the Sensation when he pans to the right to the green bush. The S2 is much smoother and more balanced. Also, the sound to me is better on the S2. The Sensation has a very noticable treble emphasis, that shows up clearly on wind noise that I've noticed in other videos.

Here are two more:

SGS2:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jBQPMzhXQ0

Sensation:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VC9R35x5tEQ

To my eye the Sensation colors are kind of bizarre, either washed out, or oddly saturated. There are odd areas of blurriness, probably due to some compression artifacts. Once again, the exposure fluctuates erratically, making it unpleasant to watch. Lastly, the noticeable treble emphasis makes the wind noise very irritating.

The S2 colors are much more even, the exposure adjustments are smooth, and the audio is more balanced, and much less harsh.

I honestly wish it were the opposite.

I don't doubt you'll see it differently. So, I'll leave the debate here. See what you want to see.
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
You r absolutely right that we see and hear things differently,coz my sight and hearing is perfect and u seriously need some eye and ear checkup,u said that colours are washed out in Sensation,hahaha r u kidding me,do u even know how the washed out colours look like,and u said the audio on SGS 2 is better then Sensation,so u mean mono audio recording is better then sterio audio,lol! seriously u should start a new career as a comedian i bet u will prosper in that field,anyway on a serious note in the end u said that see what u want to see,may i ask who the hell are you to tell me this,i am not bound by any means,i am free and independant to see what i want to see and the way i like,so it would be better if u mind your own business,and btw why you always quote my post,was i even talking to you or did i step on your tail?
[HTC Sensation] Sofly999:
By viewing these video comparison, I prefer the sensation over the SGSII. The sensation is clearer but a little bit red saturated. Everything's not perfect but according to what HTC is used to be camera wise, I think they pulled it off pretty good this time.
[HTC Sensation] SK_007:
Thank God most people have a good eyesight here!!!!
[HTC Sensation] mjmonsada:
After viewing these comparison videos, i have to agree that sensation is better by a small margin.

[HTC Sensation] Madcypher:
No more youtube!!

Ladies,

I love HD, been shooting HD since 2003 when I first purchased the JVC GR-HD1 camcorder. I have 2 newer HD cams (3 total) and I have NEVER judged quality of the video through YouTube or Vimeo or any other online site.

The main reasons are:

1) You never know what type of agenda the person who posted the video has. I've seen people pull off the craziest switches, edits, wrong color corrections and even added noise to videos to make it seem like "X" camcorder is bad. Trust me, it happens. Some of the Sensation videos look like ****, some look amazing, how is that possible from the same phone? Other factors are at work.

2) All online sites recompress the video regardless, so you're seeing a 2nd generation copy of the original with reduced resolution and bitrate.

3) Hardware/software always are a factor on the viewing end. If your PC/MAC doesn't have the muscle with either the CPU/GPU/drivers then you'll have problems viewing the videos as they were shot. 99.9% of people don't have calibrated monitors so when I hear all the conversations about color this and color that, I have to ask myself what are people really seeing on non-calibrated screens?

One member was gracious enough to post RAW footage to an upload site earlier, that's the real method for analyzing the video. I can play the footage raw on my XBOX, PS3 or PC to my calibrated monitor and judge the true quality of the video. Not some 2nd/3rd grade uploaded, possibly manipulated rehash.
