[Epic 4G Themes] Prince_Basil:
Okay, and just a reminder, how do you restore a nandroid backup? I've tried reflashing the rom, letting it load and turn on. Then going back and wiping cache and dalvik cache three times. Then I go to advance restore and just do the data part. If I'm looking for the exact same setup as before, would it be okay to just restore the entire thing?
[Epic 4G Themes] jdelano:
Right; to get the exact same setup as before you tried flashing the theme. Do a normal restore.

When flashing a theme you don't lose data (because you don't have to wipe data/factory reset). Also your apps stay; unless they are included in the theme, then the theme will copy over the ones that are themed. It doesn't remove any apps though.
[Epic 4G Themes] SpicyBurrito:
I love this theme except for one thing..

The font. Any way to change it back to the default?
[Epic 4G Themes] schnowdapowda:
Look for "custom font switcher" on the market. I'm sure you'll find something you'll like.

Cd's or tapes?

Hey all,

I have a Galaxy Ace. After installing Gingerbread 2.3.4, the screen takes about twice as long to unlock from standby mode. Also, it is way slower to react to proximity sensor.

Is there a way to fix this or maybe downgrade back to froyo?

Thanks!

Can you recommend a good sense NAND ROM with 3.0??

thank you very much
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] syther:
If you mean Sense 3.0, i suggest you to read a bit through the few Sense 3 Threads. A good Rom for someone doesnt mean its a good one for you :D

I so far tried all available roms and now im using MIUI Rom beacause of the not so great stability and the glitches that happen in Sense 3 roms (in my oppinion)

if you mean Honeycomb with sense thats not existant atm.

Sense 3 Roms are stable enough but as we all told you there are some problems with them until the Source Code will release from HTC.

Some really nice updates in the beta! I have seen greater stability and manual mode is working much better!

For the first time, I have access to the AF button and can focus using those. That is a big step forward. I had it stop responding once, but after restarting, it worked great.

Question, not sure if this is a current limitation or if i am not doing something right. When I choose to magnify the image, it zooms in the rectangle box. Is there a way to move that box around the screen, like on the liveview of my camera when zooming?

Hello,

I have Canon EOS D1000 and Notion Ink Adam running AdamComb 0.3 custom Honeycomb ROM. Software said that USB host mode not supported on my device, although it should be :confused:. Too bad, because I was very exited about this software :) Maybe my camera and device could be added to next update? And if I can be any help, I would be glad to do so.

Great work, congrats on this getting out to the public so quickly!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dglockitt:
Is this only for cameras that support live view

I may be wrong but from the list of cameras supported so far, they are all new EOS models that have the live view feature. I suspect the application may not work with older EOS models. Has anyone got it to work with a 1D Mark2N?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Hmm, I think I have figured out why the cameras without liveview don't work. Now I just need to fix it :)

Can you explain the combination of timelapse and exposure ramping? And how this is supposed to be automatic?

You pros need to keep in mind I'm an amateur at best. Explain it to me as if I was a dumbass.

Also, why is the majority of timelapsers Canon user?

Issues have been reported with the XT. Wait for a later version.

450D sort-of works right now, but the HD2 wont.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] knoxploration:
They're not, to be honest.

I'm sure some Nikon shooters would make the same claim of their own brand, too, but fact of the matter is photographers are very similar creatures, no matter which brand they favor. Try searching for "Nikon time lapse" and "Canon time lapse" on YouTube for example, and you'll get results not far out of proportion with what you'd expect given their relative market shares. Not exactly scientific, but it's enough to make the point. ;-)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] messus:
Hi Chainfire, thank you for your reply.

Exposure ramping means adjusting the exposure accordingly to changing light conditions to get even exposures from light to dark light conditions. A good example is when shooting a series of stills (timelapse) of a sunset/sunrise, where light changes.

This can be done either manually, semi-auto or automatically.

Manually by checking the histogram as you shoot, and try to adjust by hand

A semi-automated solution exist in a hardware device called the little bramper (google it), where you watch the histogram and then program the device to adjust in steps. But it is not that easy to adjust correct settings.

Both these two requires a lot of practice, and trial and error to get good results.

A fully automatic solution exists in the great software from Granitbay. This is done by the software using the camera to measure the light (lumen/histogram) and the software then correct exposure by increasing/decresing exposure time/aperture or ISO) according to your pre-programmed lumens level (exposure) as light condition changes.

The software from Granitebay can be downloaded as a 14-day free trial, if you want to check it out. It is AWESOME, but I would simply LOVE to and MUCH MORE PREFER to have this on my android device, as this would be much more convenient. The Android device is lighter to transport, it consumes much less power, hence lasts longer out in the field. I am certain your app would be a HUGE hit if you managed to implement this.

Why most timelapse photographers use Canon I am not sure of, but it is a fact. But I have read somewhere that Canon lenses are more precise than Nikon in giving consistent exposures (light-feed to the camera) when choosing a specific aperture, eg. f/8 with a lens where the aperture can be controlled electronically. The result is Nikon gear more often causes the undesirable result in flickering due to un-even exposures at same aperture when shooting timelapse. (Unless shot with manual lenses with a constant aperture).

Also the 5D2 seem to be a favourite among timelapse photographers due to it's amazing picture quality, good ISO performance, high resolution and affordable price.

Anyway, should you decide to start working on this, I would be more than happy to help out testing.

Anyway, thank you so much for making this software.

Purchased from market and the Apps shows "Purchased", but I am not able to download as both Web and mobile market state that I have no compatible devices.

Got both a Samsung SG2 and a Notion Ink Adam running Honeycomb, which both should be campatible (USB Host) regged on the market.

Any alternative download?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Very informational. Should be doable.

Again, should be doable.

Looking into it. Indeed it does appear so far like the EOS do not report this, so this is going to be tricky.

Yup

Again, should be doable.

I would like everybody's voice on this: should bulb and continuous shooting, one tap start, second tap stop, be default behavior?

This is indeed fairly CPU intensive. I will have to test this out. Luckily I have written hand optimized native code to do exactly this before for Android, so it shouldn't take me that much time to figure this out.

How important is it that the buttons be in red as well ? Because this makes it significantly more difficult to do. And by significantly, I mean like a factor 10.

It's far from top priority, but yes, it would only be interesting if everything was in red shades. Luckily enough there's always the old hack of putting a physical red filter over the screen, I just don't know how the touch-screen will behave.

But again, it's low priority.

And for the bulb trigger, I would prefer "1 press for start + 1 press for stop" as the default behaviour. Mostly because a touch-screen is far from ideal when you need to keep a trigger pressed.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ACOMELATO:
Just a (marketing) thought: I may be wrong, but instead of making a cross-camera app (and having to deal with all sorts of compatibility issues), wouldn't it be better if you had different apps for say, different brands?

Like: the Canon DSLR controller, Nikkon DSLR, etc.

Might help on overcoming issues directly related with the most popular brands without having to test compatibility in a myriad of cameras.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
It might actually happen that way, yes :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] paul.pavlinovich:
So what you're saying is that the firmware is the problem. I don't dispute that but you also say that you've used native kernel driver for other devices. So why won't you do the same thing for this device? The tablet manufacturer is unlikely to be responsive on a firmware issue.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Ok, first off, any time something "bad" happens like the app becoming unresponsive, the camera throwing an error, etc, I would definitely reboot the Android device. There are still some kernel problems with USB host, and if something has gone wrong on that low level, it will keep playing up until you reboot. Not saying that is what has happened here, but I would definitely keep that in mind.

Next, I have no personal experience with the Sprint SGS3 variant (though the international one works great), but try the following procedure:

- Make sure all the cables are disconnected, and the camera is off

- Connect the normal USB cable to the camera

- Connect the USB host connector to the normal USB cable

- Turn on the camera

- Count to three

- Connect the USB host connector to the phone

You should now get a popup from Android asking you if you want to start DSLR Controller (or maybe it'll start automatically, if you have configured that before), and selecting it should start the app and it should work. Note that this entire procedure (including starting DSLR Controller) should not take more than 15 seconds from turning the camera on, or the camera might go to sleep again.

Using the DSLR Controller icon from the app list usually doesn't work (due to how Android manages the USB permissions). You really need to select it from that popup.

If you do not reliably get that popup, there may be an issue with firmware or cables. If DSLR Controller randomly crashes and freezes, you are also likely to have a cable problem as well. Yes, it is possible that there is a bug in DSLR Controller (or your SGS3 firmware), but time and again it ends up that users get everything fixed and working perfectly by replacing their cables.

Please see my reply above :) I would indeed advise trying the stock firmware. It is certainly not unheard of CM being the problem (if it is, it'll be the kernel, probably)

What I'm saying is is that a native kernel driver is currently included (which I might add, will not work on newer Android versions than Jelly Bean, I have already been informed by the Android team) but it's unsupported. It was written for the Samsung Galaxy S2 and Note on Android 2.3 and that's that. It works for a lot of other devices, but if it doesn't, that's too bad. I will not go hunting for the problem because that would take an excessive amount of time for a very small number of potential customers - it's just not an economically viable option. MLController uses a different native implementation, and maybe that one works for you - great. That doesn't mean that code is in any way compatible with mine, and we're certainly not going to exchange it.
