[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
I think this may help you, let me know if it does.

For the people that do not know, I believe this is the best beta apk and xml files. It has the bitrate selector and goes up to 30Mbps (standard(2)). http://84.246.215.13/HTC_Sensation/MODS/Camera_Tweak/BETA_TEST_ONLY/HTCCamera.zip

Attention: THIS IS

NOT

A CWM ZIP FILE, JUST UNZIP IT AND PLACE THE FILES WHERE THEY NEED TO BE.
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
yea this is the one i unpacked and placed the files in system\app and system\etc

it crashes out when i press record video...no FC, just exits back to app menu

i ended up extracting htccamera.apk and media_profiles.xml from LeeDroid's ROM.

they work ok and bitrate goes up to 20mbps for 1080p and it's saved as MP4.
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
okay as long as the camera work for you. I have a question, did you have the bitrate selector on standard or superb? I'm asking because the high(4), high+(4), and superb(6) does not work, only standard(2) and below work.
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
Hmm, can't remember if i moved it from standard...i fiddled with the settings a bi t though. I know it's beta but please change the quality settings to something more understandable :)

One more thing i noticed when trying all those mods around...some have the auto whitebalance messed up: there's a yellowish tint in daylight conditions, even in this mod.
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
ok i reinstalled it and now works OK in standard mode

output is 1920x1088 @ 35mbps, 26FPS, 3GP format

Here are some comparisons between camera included in LeeDroid 3.0.0 and this mod.

- There is no visible difference in quality of video between 20 and 35mbps, even when panning, only the size is larger.

- Camera Mod has messed up white balance detection but seems to have higher quality (less noise).

For me it's back to LeeDroid camera mod until this one gets a makeup ;)

LeeDroid Video (1080P, 20mbps, MP4 container, 30FPS)

CameraMOD Beta - Video (1080P, 35mbps, 3GP container, 26FPS)

LeeDroid Photo (8MP, Auto White Balance, no Enhance)

CameraMOD Beta - Photo (8MP, Auto White balance, no Enhance)
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
I can definitely see the yellow tent you are talking about. For the increased bitrate the OP had a good reason for that I will try to find it (I think its a few pages back).

I think the auto white balance issue may be addressed in v2.1 but there is no eta on that because the OP has begun studying.

EDIT:

INFO ABOUT HOW HE WILL BE RELEASING THE MOD
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
This is just stupid...

Try to record a video on the mountain, and you really can see the diference, or on your car...

In your home, you cant appreciate diference... you need highly populated areas, if you dont stress the sensor, you never see that things called pixelations.

Anyway, the next MOD have a bit better quality on good light conditions, low light conditions doesnt look much better but anyway you can see the icons of the clock more clearly on my mod.

The next mod have a few more features, like better colors, and better image quality, just im testing a bit more.
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
right, let me drive every day to some mountains to test the "advantage" of 40mbps over 30 or 20mbps from a smartphone camera. Are you targeting Richard Attenborough with your settings? :)

if i want bluray quality, i'll use a proper camera or buy the movie (check some bitrates here)

http://forum.blu-ray.com/blu-ray-movies-north-america/3338-blu-ray-movie-bitrates-here.html

Use the stock camera and you'll get pixelations even indoors or whatever. So the mods are good, bitrates are good but not the ultimate quality factor after a certain value (when using constant bitrates).

Right now your beta has a yellow tint in every light condition, not just lowlight like i posted above. The AWB is messed up.

anyway, good luck with the release, we're eager to test out!
[HTC Sensation] reaperofwaywardsouls:
Just to note (not trying to side with anybody), but the white balance usually is off. Most shots indoors have a amber-orange tint when set to auto exposure.
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
THis is simply, dont compare a PROFESIONAL CAMERA, with a phone...

This phone needs much more bitrate to handle better quality... ( one of that cameras at 10mbps still ****ing up the sensation at 30mbps )

Maybe 30mbps its ok, but how i say, at 40mbps you ever get the maximum quality.

Anyway, if the people prefers 30mbps, i can make an apk with that 30mbps and another with 40mbps.
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
Yeah, you should just to please those whiny people with limited capacitynl.
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
But you can use 720P because have lower bitrates, and the quality practically is the same!

thats why say:

1080P ( 30 or 40mbps )

720P at 20mbps

and QHD at 10mbps
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
I just saw " CameraMOD v2 ( not yet for download )/ 15-Sep-2011 15:27" , and the new camera .apk. Which one is the related media profiles? Could you link us?

there is also a full release note?

thanks
[HTC Sensation] -juanito-:
the new htc Sense 3.5 have HDR, Panorama and Slow Motion Recording in camera app !!
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
really?? i have just installed it but the only new feature founded at this moment was 2 new format to record (on-line HD quality and on-line quality). Now i check better ;)

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

EDIT:

Mmm no... i have not found any new feature apart what i just say.... which is your 3.5 ROM? the AHRD? couse i have the 3.5 AHRD and there is absolutely nothig of what you say.... could you give me more details? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] -juanito-:
RCMix Bliss ROM

but HDR, Panorama and Slow Motion recording doesn't work..robocik will fix all of them
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
that's not a new problem, i think that he has only added the old feature (actually not well working) to the new ROM, so because these mod are not official (maybe would require also a new microcode firmware for camera). I think that all of that features are old problems on new hardware. In other words= Dreams far far away.
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Soo... sense 3.5 have the HDR and Slowmo working?

Anyone can link me to that new HTCCamera.apk to mod it right now?

I have the mod semi-finished to release but i need a beta tester urgent.. i dont have any one right now...

PM ME thanks.

EDIT: That new sense 3.5 have working the HDR and Slowmo?
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
3.5 ARHD is just the ARHD version not the beta sense.
[HTC Sensation] -juanito-:
htc Sense 3.5 port it on Desire HD and DHD users say HDR & SlowMotion working !
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
mmmm that's is really cooool... but many things can depend also by the CMOS sensor... imagine to traslate the nikon D300 feature to D3000... feature could work but not as in the first camera.... however i hope that everything will go well for us :D
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
CMOS on HTC Sensation is almost the same of Desire HD.

So slowmo is posible, but really there is sense 3.5 for Sensation?
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
everything could be modded, in my past phone with winmo.6.1 (SEX1i) i used the ROM of HTC HD2 :D! there was no more things of SE :D

My Opinion ? Don't stop your develop, when there will be something sure and stable about other ROMs we will integrate it in next camera releases.

The most important thing now is to have a 1080p with a very low compression stable. 2 weeks ago you told us that in few days would be arrived a stable version: time goes bye so, better don't lose time.

And obviously: Thanks ;)
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
I prefer 40mbps but hell... so heavy videos! but the quality is damn good!

And the photos, well, im gonna try to make it better, like i done with the Optimus 3D, actually about double better. ( detailed images, more vivid, and less compressed )

Now i have new betatesters so tomorrow, i think the V2 its finished. :D
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Any chance to get a version for CM7 users? :D

Matt
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
i prefer 40mbps too, hope in the final version tomorrow.... :)
[HTC Sensation] BigBoppa:
In the 3.5 version htc reworked the autofocus. Now it is working much better because it hits the spot finaly! :D
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Yes, but first i need to finish the sense CameraMOD, and then well see.
[HTC Sensation] Knucklessg1:
Will the update work with non sense builds like cm7 and miui?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
Not pure aosp roms just sense roms
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
any chance for release today? :)
[HTC Sensation] shnizlon:
|ErosizeD|, Evo 3D developer has managed to force the FFC to capture in 2mp resolution, can you do the same thing for our Sensation? :p

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263813
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
Impressive!! :eek: We also need such kind of team to develop faster more interesting things like this!
[HTC Sensation] reaperofwaywardsouls:
This would be

awesome

for a future update.

For now I think we should all wait for V2 to be posted then features like this can be added later (Maybe).
[HTC Sensation] BigBoppa:
Anybody tried this with ARHD 3.5.1 ?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
I have not, but I do know that there is something wrong with faux's 016 kernel so it creates a glitch in the camera so he said he will fix that tonight.

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 PM ----------

Nice!!!! can't wait.
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
news?? it's already christmas!
[HTC Sensation] deerkiller:
I tried that patch and it didn't change the resolution from 640 to 2mp... Bumber.
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
sure... it's not for sensation, jus for evo... the patch should be adapted...
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
So is it possible to make the ffc to shoot at 2mp? And can it go higher lol?
[HTC Sensation] Ankobarabanko:
This is funny, how VGA camera can take 2MP shots? Of course it is possible to interpolate but what is the reason? Or is the sensor really 2 MP and HTC "downpixelated" it?

Virtuous Sensation XE
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Im started to work on the v2 release today ( im a bit bussy now )

Maybe today or tomorrow ( how much ) its finished.

Be patient, thanks.

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:33 PM ----------

That is a joke... THe optimus 3D can also shoot 1080P videos with the vga, but its fake, just reconverted... jahahahaha

Any Way the front facing camera on the evo is like 1.3MP so never can shoot real 2MP photos... so its upscaled VGA or Upscaled 1.3MP...
[HTC Sensation] alibox87:
cm7

Does Camera Mod work on CM7.:)
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
No it does not
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
@Erosized: what were again the changes you planned for the V2 release? :)
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
I'm curious, will v2 work with the new base ROMS based on the XE edition.
[HTC Sensation] Refsav:
+1 I join: D
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
News? :)
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
how about just waiting or developing your own camera mod :rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] reaperofwaywardsouls:
Yeah guys, remember this guy isn't even taking any donations in and is doing all this work on his own spare time. Let's just be patient. :)
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
in the meantime just play around with the extracted camera from Virtuous Sensation ROM that does pretty good already with 20mbps and MP4 container.
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
About the fact that if maybe if the work should be faster he well also receive more "moneys" feedback. Couse as you can imagine (or better not i think) , if there is only one stable release in 2 months the hope switch directly to other users projects (and if you check there are many room with camera improovement). I still interested couse this is an open mind space but every time the updates are delayed. I don't want be too critic, but i keep in mind every time the public declarations of developing. Better say that the work is in progress that say that "today or tomorrow" there will be a release (weeks ago). We are at 20 september. Well, we will see.
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
I say this few weeks ago, isnt money related, im not gonna acept any donation, save the money for your own profit, and im not a super developer like many on this forum, im so noob on this area...

I know im retarding again, im apologize for that, tomorrow for sure the V2 is out and this time is true.

Again, excuse my delay and dont get ungry....
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
I'm not angry mate, thanks again for your work, i don't like some kind of words sometimes from other users. It's time to go to sleep, have a nice night and as always good work!
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Just i dont know the release date! there are many versions of roms, and not at all compatible with the mod.

I have to do the school work, and take care of my little brother, so im so bussy :(

I will release the mod soon as i can, now testing if work properly or not, and testing the mod for XE versions.
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
don't worry mate :) I just saw a new version on your site, there is a release log? is it working? can we download it?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
There really is no difference from the original Mod.

+FullHD(1080p) @ 40Mbps

+HD(720p) @ 20Mbps(?)

+Panorama

-Bitrate Selector

I am not sure about QHD

No it is not ready just yet but its moving forward.
[HTC Sensation] joshndroid:
you happening to be porting a CM7 type version?.. i loved your icons, the camera, the cam and the selector... really hate CM7 camera/cam
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
He's really busy so if he does start a CM7 camera mod then I'm quite sure that it will take just as long as this mod so it will be a while before that mod will become available, but in the mean time there is always cameras on the market that you can play with:)

By the way: I hate the CM7 camera too
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Sure, and for XE roms also, but first things go first.

I need more betatesters, because all my betatesters GONE, actually only i have 1 Tone503773 , thanks for the help.

I need more testers, because i need to test on diferent devices with diferent roms let me a PM if you can help.

I have only about 3 free hours per day now, quite exausting...
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
I can betatest using ARHD latest ROM, but you mentioned using a chat client to communicate with you, and I'm lazy to make an account.
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Send me that client on PM and then can chat =)
[HTC Sensation] camielkb:
Just because i am not shure: does this also affect the photo part without selecting anything??
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
Yeah another beta tester would be cool preferably someone on the east coast or Europe or something. I live on the west coast and I am not much help to ErosizeD when its 6am where I live and 4pm where he lives. 4pm probably doesn't sound late but like he said he's a very busy person. If there is anyone who want to help betatest that has an advantage over me (time zone) PM ErosizeD or if you want you can PM me but all I'm going to do is contact ErosizeD :).

If you have a gmail then Google Talk is a great way to communicate. The instant messager on the G+ website shows up in Google Talk which is nice.
[HTC Sensation] jmwils3:
well, Im quite happy to beta test your mod on any ROM you like, as I swap them quite often. Anything in particular you need done?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
Just making sure that the app is compatible with many Sense 3.0 roms
[HTC Sensation] jmwils3:
alright, has it been tried on xe based roms yet (1.73 RUU)?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
The RUU no, is it deodexed? but I'm on ARHD 3.6 which is somewhat like the RUU rom
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
XE or CyanogenMOD based doesnt work, actually only for sense 3.0.

When the mod for normal roms is finished im gonna start working on the mod for XE and CyanogenMOD Roms.
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
hey man i'm going to be up late so if you want to test we can. also jmwils3 seems like he is interested in helping you and he is closer to your time zone:D, idk just a thought.
[HTC Sensation] jmwils3:
Oh. Well almost every Rom out now, except leedroid or synergy or a couple smaller roms I believe, is based off the xe base :/ but I'll do what I can with them

Hi! I have too ARHD 3.6.0 To put old Camera Mod did not try?: Замешательстве:
[HTC Sensation] polpo71:
I try the v2 with the Android revolution hd 3.6.0.

Photo and video are good. Videos are recorded at 40 Mb/sec. and my sdcard class 4 is too much.

Is there a video selector for a Mb/sec. ? I don't find it.

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Refsav:
Where to take V2?
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
it was online last night but now it's gone again, back to the old directory structure.
[HTC Sensation] Refsav:
That is it is impossible to try in any way?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
Okay so, the camera app works on ARHD 3.6.0 but in order to do that ErosizeD need the framework from the XE roms. So the one I think you downloaded is for XE roms (NOT FINAL MOD). For the Original Sensation rom I am not sure if the new apk will be compatible... For the bitrate selector ErosizeD has been having problems with it, so he is just trying to get V2 out and then he will focus on the bitrate selector.

---------- Post added at 12:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 AM ----------

Well the camera mod that he grabbed were for BETA-TESTERS ONLY (not yelling, that's what it said) so it really wasn't ready for prime time
[HTC Sensation] polpo71:
I found here http://84.246.215.13/HTC_Sensation/MODS/Camera_Tweak/

I think it's the V2 version of the date shown is 21/09/2011
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
This is a pre-release of v2, actually not panorama enabled yet.

But the bitrate working perfectly, i need to adjust few things like the bitrate, because now seems to record at 40mbps with all modes, and that isnt profitable.

You can test it if you want but isnt the final version.

Thanks for the patience. :o
[HTC Sensation] polpo71:
No problem. If I can help somehow let me know. Thank you.

Nessun problema. Se ti posso aiutare in qualche modo fammi sapere. Grazie.
[HTC Sensation] Vipeout:
The latest Insert Coin Rom has a Camera with bitrate selector. is that the same mod from here? If so, what version?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
I dont believe it is. there are a few camera mods out there created by different devs, this one mod just has a thread.

This is the change log from the InsertCoin thread.

baadnewz had help from leedroid, seo and m-deejay not ErosizeD
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Some help from Mdeejay or any other developer will be great with some things i cant get working... but that developers seems too bussy to help me...

Well... i have to manage this myself.
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
Beta links are down again.

Excuse me, im reinstalling the Server, due im having troubles with the apache configs.

40Gb of bandswitch used this month! only with the MOD downloads... LOL.... :p

Thats is about 20.000 downloads omg...

[HTC Sensation] HannoSLM:
cant wait. This is the only thing stopping from going to the new XE base :) simply the panorama pictures are awesome ....

many thanks for the amazing mod
[HTC Sensation] joshndroid:
yes! exactly what i wanted for CM7.. i asked and now shall receive.. donation will ensue on release stoked awesome work
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
Im currently moded CM7 camera APK, but there isnt media profiles, bit weird, anyway its working at 40mbps also with CyanogenMOD, but FPS seems choppy than the normal roms, i think its better at 40mbps with the original sensation ROM.

Or XE based ROMS.

First mod come for normal sense roms.

Second mod come for XE roms, and the last for CyanogenMOD Roms.

This time with the User interface, and the original one.
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Always down if you need a no nonsense tester for the regular sense version :). Working with Romannbb on bulletproof, and id be nice to test compatibility / stability / performance. Been using v2 for a while (kept updating), no issues as far as I can see.

One question, if media_profiles.xml isn't used anymore post 2.2, how can we change the video container to mp4 instead of 3fp? thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
Hopefully the XE version doesn't take too long from the normal version. I'm not a dev, but the apk couldn't of changed THAT much could it?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
I dont know how long it will take but the two apks are different.
[HTC Sensation] |ErosizeD|:
XE is practically the same, the problem is the time, today i dont have homework ,but tomorrow maybe yes...

The Cyanogen is a bit diferent than any other...

And yes media profiles still being used on Android 2.3 ( depends of the rom )

Is the next version gonna be compatible with virtuous xe rom?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
I think so. were you having problems before?
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
I've been thinking and maybe you should hold off in the CM7 mod ErosizeD because it is still in alpha. I'm thinking wait until Nightlies come out to start modding the camera. So pretty much keep the order you have now:D
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
Dang, ARHD is going to release a Sense 3.5 version. I say skip cm7 for now and work on 3.5 instead.

No. If he releases it'll be at the bottom of the list.

Hi,

just got my sensation and installed Android Revolution HD™ 3.6.1 XE.

can anyone suggest camera mod that will work with this rom? any links?

thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] Tone503773:
Hey man, welcome. At the moment the links are down but you are in the right thread for a modded camera app. Stay tuned.
[HTC Sensation] HannoSLM:
the sensation's camera is quite boring without the bitrate and panorama mod ... cant wait for the update for XE version.

[HTC Sensation] SCossio:
any ETA? cant wait to see what it looks like? can you post any pics to tease the audience?
[HTC Sensation] Michaelearljohansen:
Check the second post in the ARHD thread. There is a list of addons working for each rom version. In the 3.6.x section, there's the camera mod. Go check it out
[HTC Sensation] zerozoneice:
the Sense 3.5 camera simply rocks!

Out of the box: MP4, working high-res panorama, working HDR, working 2x recording, cool interface!

Only thing missing is less compression JPEG and selectable bitrates, i would go for modding this one instead of CM7 or even XE. There's going to be a lot of shift towards 3.5 ROMs once kernel devs start putting out good material (and of course official HTC 3.5 comes out).

Oh one more thing: the stereo recording problem (high mic gain causing very loud cracks, pops & hisses) is also gone in 3.5 !!
[HTC Sensation] HannoSLM:
This one does not have panorama enabled ....
