Isn't the bravia engine like a driver for the screen which directs the output of the screen? If so, why would you see the difference in a picture on your computer which has no relation to the phone? In other words, the picture you took will always be the same, however the phone's display of the picture will look different because of the bravia engine. Hence why comparing it on the computer does not provide an argument as to whether it works nor does it prove if it works.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] consolation:
that was my understanding too... but, if the screenshot takes altered values being sent to the screen, you will get a difference.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] parker09:
Wow awesome development!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ph03n!x:
That, and the first post had two images for a with/ without comparison- not sure how they were taken. Let me know if I should take them with a camera instead of as screenshots...

Swyped from my HTC HD2 running CM7 (Gingerbread 2.3.7)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Arkain2K:
Very neat, hope all the chefs will bake this gem into their CM7-based ROM!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tonno16:
do you think is it possible to install/flash on htc sensation???

I knew that this is a MOD. if work on hd2 why cannot work on other device??

is required a specific gpu or cpu??
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gade12:
Ey! great feature.

I think this must be in all hd2 roms :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] datagr:
Here is my results and the proof for all :

I took a random colorful picture with the default android camera.(An old chair with a colorful cover)

Then I did what first post says.

Then I took the same picture.You can notice that it has similar angle but it's not exactly the same picture.

In conclusion what this mod do is enchanting the quality of the pictures that you take.

Here is the before and after pictures as a proof.

Picture 1 is before and picture 2 is after.

Picture 1 :

Picture 2:

P.S. In case it makes any difference I am using latest Dorimanx ROM with HierOS 1.7.4 kernel
[HD2 Android NAND Development] snarf1974:
maybe my eyes are not seeing this right ... but the second picture looks washed out ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
Hm, yes, I think you may have missed the point here. What this mod CLAIMS to do is enhance the image as displayed on your phone screen, NOT as taken by your camera. IF (and that's a big if ;)) it works then you would see a difference of how the same photo/wallpaper/whatever looks on your phone screen before/after applying. I have to agree with others here though that this is not a full implementation of the Bravia display engine and as such am more than a tiny bit sceptical...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wilderwind:
I can see two variants of white balance only.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] codiak:
Haha.. nice way to push up the thanksmeter ;D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Kailkti:
If I am correct, the screenshot does not take altered values of a screen. It simply copies/takes the software image or command that is being sent to the screen.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] consolation:
To be honest, this the whole bravia thing just seems to apply a different set of curves to the image on the fly (try it in photochop to see what i mean): it doesn't seem to make the display work better on any fundamental level. As such, it should be screencap-able, just as the cap image is different when the screen shows red or orange.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daedric:
So... it's like audio-loudness for pictures? They seem better... but are only LOUD :D

ALSO, 1st picture:

27/10/2011 @ 17:30.

2nd picture: @ 17:33.

So you took one picture, moved files + edited build.prop + reboot IN 3 minutes.

Your HD2 boots fast :)

Anyhow, i double what's beem said. It's simply a better white balance (bluer/colder on the firest, redder/warmer on the second) plus a different ISO.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] JeremyGuan:
"Download and unpack this 2 modified files and copy them into system/etc folder. You have to be rooted of course. ;-)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] consolation:

@OP

how is this different from:

[DEV] Bravia Engine | 100% Legit | Stock 2.3.3 | 31/07/2011

AND

[DEV] Bravia Engine for Xperia play [Rel:v01]

check ur p.m.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Achotjan:
it just cant be diferent ! , ther are binary files that can not be edited , and nothink new on that to allow it to run is just a copy , pleas give proper credit to the dev who has done that

Edit : all semc to be ok now

cheers

Achotjan
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daedric:
This is interesting...

So... there's something on the STOCK xperia play that there isn't on a CM7 variant...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DooMLoRD:
Yes its some SEMC framework modifications...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Daekin:
OK...so maybe it does not break anything, but it is NOT working.

It is supposed to enhance pictures in Gallery right? so I took one sample image. opened Gallery and looked on it for a while - remembered contrast, saturation etc.

Then flashed bravia mod and looked at the image in the gallery once again and it was the SAME.

it is like those BEATS mods.....you simple need hardware for that too....even if eats works partially by enabling equalizer you do not have the special DSP - because BEATS devices have differend DSP specially build for Beats (higher quality effects, better DAC etc.)

all these mods are like PLACEBO :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daedric:
On the Bravia, i am inclined to agree with you. We are missing something.

To be honest, without the settings showing up, i call it placebo.

NOW, on the matter of beats, ITS pure software. I do agree that the Runnymedde musthave better dacs and a better dsp, but the implementation is software. Not like WOW SRS or DolbyMobile, that's pure DSP made.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] consolation:
DAC has to be hardware. There's no way to make software transform a signal to analogue. (off topic)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daedric:
DAC is hardware, but everything that turns digital sound (that we can't ear) to analog sound (that we can ear), has a Digital to Analog Converter.

Now, some are better, some are worse... the SensationXL might have a better dac than the dhd (probably has, it's not difficult, even my hd2 beats the dhd on sound, withouth dolby/srs), and although BEATS, as with any other sound, require a dac, they're probably not IMPLEMENTED on it.

Make it work

Hello,:p

Can you please help me to make it work on my HD2 Typhoon 3.7.3 Magldr.:o

I've tried to launch the zip (z_bravia_engine.zip) from recovery but i got and error and aborted while installing.:(

Thank you for any help for providing a good link.:)

@tin:

it is good to see you here back in Android :D...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tin2404:
thanx my friend..nice to see you ! but i am going "back" to WM platform because it seems that binary editing is not common in Android world.

so,every try to explain something ( or anything ) is waste of time for me so I abbandoned this unusefull post.back to private disscussions. ;)

I have edited binary files again and sending you in your dropbox from WM to test them again corresponding to some codec issue I encoured......with differences,of course because I do need some USEFULL tips from you as I usually did. ;-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DooMLoRD:
surprising as the "edited" binary files are exactly the same as the ones posted few months back...

really interested in knowing whts "edited"
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tin2404:
Tip: I used HHD tool and try with it to look line strings carefully. ;)

Tip2: I will let you know...when you buy HD2. ;)

I do not want to correspond with inferior device users.They makes microwave havens !

thank you.

end of discussion.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DooMLoRD:
info1: all the hashes (MD5/SHA/etc) of the files u posted are IDENTICAL to the ones posted by zdzihu... and he posted them 5 months back...

info2: i already have ARC, PLAY, Flyer & Galaxy S2... i dont want to downgrade to a HD2...

info3: "I do not want to correspond with inferior device users.They makes microwave havens !" really? thats the most stupidest comment i have ever heard...

may be we can take ur "issues" over to p.m.?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
You can't downgrade to an HD2 it is the most fantastic device you can only upgrade :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DooMLoRD:
i ment downgrade technology wise ;)

QSD8250 is a very old chip now... though loved it on my X10...

but now use MSM8255... these once can easily work at 2Ghz ;)

but yes HD2 has had incredible dev support... one of the best...

Hello guys i have a problem. My dad phone mass storage is not recognise by the computer. I tried cleaning, the usb adjust and all sorts of way but it still fail to go to either kies or mass storage. Btw the phone is unrooted running 2.3.3. Any help?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kwelito_88:
Try installing samsung kies
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hellodzulz:
Tried that, install the drivers. Done all possible solution still no help:(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hellodzulz:
The usb toggle wont appear at the top of phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] malcho:
Try change usb port on your computer.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hellodzulz:
Done also no effect :/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Valinorian:
Is USB debugging unchecked?

Also try this if you havent allready tried: put usb connect settings in the phone on KIES, start KIES on pc, wait for it to load, then plug in phone to usb, wait till KIES recognizes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hellodzulz:
I set usb debug and mount still no effect. Kies also done all no hope. thank :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dkolody:
You can try doing a factory reset..i know not the most elegant solution.

Failing that, there is a known hardware defect regarding the usb port on the phone that will have to be repaired. I had to get mine repaired.

If windows is reporting the phone as being an invalid usb device this may be the problem. Hopefully your phone is still under warranty.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wmanyati:
if your USB input is sound, the device motherboard has moisture damage. The same thing happened to mine.
[Motorola Photon 4G] NOMIOMI:
As we all know that there is not many developers for this photon 4g like other mobile phones ..

so i think that if there are not developers for the photon 4g then photon will die soon

what u say about this ??????
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
only way my photon is dying is if i forget to plug it in
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
I Just want to know what the hell it is you people expect?

20, 30 Roms? That all use a slightly different deodexed base? and have a different set of icons or themes? And all introduce a new set of crap that only partially works?

I mean really - there are only so many things you can do to a rom before they all become the same damn thing with a different name and "dev".

Most of what I see out there is a guy tweaking his phone, removing bloat ware,claiming "ZOMG Battery and Speed!", dumping /system into a Zip file and that someone else made and posting it for someone else to flash to their phone

Want to learn how to do it?

Flash aliens rom, tweak it how you like it, add some icons and themeing (the brunt of the work).

Copy all of that into Aliens Zip file, post it is a rom for people to flash - almost 0 effort to do anything but the art - which you can steal from just about anyone online and call it a "port".

/rant
[Motorola Photon 4G] ejdavis:
That was just rude. .. this is best phone but when you compare Bionic and stupid 3d threads...well i see what he means ...and Roms are not usually the same.. Some have performance tweaks...like 4g on unlocked bootloader. Speed increase, themes and mods.. Nothing wrong with him trying to get or rally development support like some of the inferior phones have. Remember, this is a development site...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
Not a function of the Rom - Lockfish (I think?) has just been able to figure out how to fix it outside of the issue with the bootloader.

I'm not being rude - I was being honest, but there is a thread at least every other day talking about how lack luster our dev section is. This IS a development forum - and I showed him (really basically) how to make a rom. No?

Honestly, when you get 5 or 6 different roms out there - there are enough similarities between them and not enough differences that there really isn't much of a point. 99% of what most people experience from ROM to ROM is placebo.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pwrmedia:
It appears both the OP and Kcarp were both in the wrong on this one, and for this reason:

OP - Phone development will progress only as fast as sources are released. This phone is still new enough to where developers are still waiting on critical components to really be able to customize this phone. Do not expect this forum to jump off like an HTC (insert model here) forum, but instead, anticipate seasoned developers finding and introducing mods, tweaks and more efficient ways to unlock the bootloader over the coming weeks/months.

Kcarp - C'monnnn man, you're better than that rant. You've been around long enough (hell, I remember ya from the Hero days) to know that these types of threads pop up weekly, and sometimes it's best just to ignore them. I know you meant well, but the last thing we want to do is scare off future developers from posting here as this phone gets older, when so many are leaving XDA as it is.
[Motorola Photon 4G] DWake014:
I am also getting sick of these whiny threads. This phone gets close to the battery life of my evo shift running a cm7 clone, locks gps about 100x's faster and gets a better data and call signal everywhere. My phone is stock rooted with no bloatware touched. It may take some time but even IF development never goes far with this phone, i'd still be happy with it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bpcivicsi:

[Motorola Photon 4G] NOMIOMI:
i want to say that like other devices that developers port thing to device like new thing and Android latest OS ..you can see that older device google nexus one and nexus s has the ICS and this thing is done by the developers of that devices .if developers leave to port the thing and Updated Android then devices are able to run application and play games which are only supported the updated Android OS
[Motorola Photon 4G] pwrmedia:
Established developers will get to this phone eventually. CWM will add the phone into the ROM Manager database, and Cyanogen and others will eventually port their versions to ours. Have patience or be prepared to sell your phone on Ebay/Craigslist if you just can't wait.

[Motorola Photon 4G] ghodzilla5150:
This phone is Damn near the Best you are going to get out of the box. All those other phones NEED Rom's to run as good as our phone does Out Of The Box. Moto has updated this phone 3x in less than 2 months ALREADY (it would take Sammy 2 years to update the SGS2 3x). There is a rumor I have seen that Moto is working on ANOTHER update for this Amazing phone.

I could careless if I get ROM's or not. It works Great for me as is. I was lucky enough to get Grand Fathered into Unlimited Mobile Hotspot Data since I have been a customer since 1997 and spoke with a Retentions Manager (Politely) and she took care of me). No 5G Cap for me and my area is 4G Saturated. Use the Hotspot for my Xoom, HP Touchpad and Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0. I am Very, Very Happy with this phone.

Had the OG EVO before this phone and was putting ROM's/Kernels on it all the time (last one was Synergy SC2). Got tired of that. It's nice to just have a phone that WORKS like it's supposed to without ROM's.

[Motorola Photon 4G] NOMIOMI:
I have seen some good 3d games from gameloft in the market but most of them appears as incopatible with my mopho, does anybody knows if this is a hardware incopatibility issue or another way to get them.

WTF is this ..........
[Motorola Photon 4G] fester30:
Big +1 here. Epic 4g needed roms just to last a day on battery and to be fast enough to keep up with certain applications. Problem with the ROMs is that even journaled, they'd get buggy after a few weeks, or there would be just something about a ROM that would annoy me. Once it got dual boot capability I was flashing ROMs left and right. It got to be where I was flashing ROMs just to flash ROMs, like I forgot other ways to kill boredom.

I don't feel an immediate need to flash ROMs. If CM7 comes stable to the photon I'll probably try it just to see what the fuss is about. However, I'm more interested in eventual ICS. I'm happy for root because of Titanium backup and other such things that you need root to run. The battery is great, and it's plenty fast enough. There is one thing about this phone that no ROM could give me on the Epic 4g... the ability to make a phone call at work. The antenna is far superior.

[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
+1
[Motorola Photon 4G] ejdavis:
So, wouldn't be good to rally support. Bionic is basically the same but look at development.. Come on u really believe it's because photon 4g is new... I will never sell my phone, but the fact it is great out the box, means with half the development of the Bionic, it could crush Nexus with or without Ice Cream.... Not upset, just understand first guys disappointment. Spring doesn't even support Photon nor Rom Manager.... But anyway. Ok
[Motorola Photon 4G] ghodzilla5150:
Exactly. The Photon ROCKS as far as Reception with it's 8 Antennas. Amazing. The Battery Management Moto did with this Phone is quite Frankly Stunning. Whatever they did, keep it up. There is NO Android Phone that has as good or better Battery Management than the Photon.

I hear SGS2 owners laugh at us because we have a Pentile Display, BUT Guess what, I can see it in Direct Sunlight and it saves the battery not having to maintain a Super Screen. The Screen looks Great to these 44 years old eyes. I have dropped this phone from pocket level (No Case) and NO Dent or Even Scratch (the SGS2 would have shattered into a million pieces). Moto did a Superb job in how they manufactured this phone, 2nd to none. It's Durability will make this phone last along time. It does not FEEL cheap.

With my OG EVO I ALWAYS had a spare battery with me. I have NOT had to change the battery on the Photon yet. This is all the while (Texting, Phone Calls, Angry Birds & Netflix). I wake up and take my phone off the Power Cable at 5:30 a.m. and return home at 4:45 p.m. with at least 30% left. Now I do have my Cable plugged into my Desktop at work (I am the IT Manager BTW) and have the Car Dock for my drive home, so I guess those numbers are unfair:D

I ONLY Rooted this Phone to use Titanium Backup and MY Backup Pro. That's it. Wanted SuperUser permissions.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
+1 to that!
[Motorola Photon 4G] willysp:
I say that my Photon is working very nicely with a rooted stock ROM, and if it dies, I have insurance to get a replacement.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Hahaha. I like this. Good point.
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
webtop makes this phone awesomeier (yea i just made that word up because its teh only word that describes this phone.

you want proof of that? im sitting at stock rooted thats right i dont even run my own overclocked kernels because out of the box this phone is amazing. this is the first moto android device on sprint, it was to be expected there wasnt gunna be a crapload of traffic. sprint times the release HORRIFICLY evo 3d , photon, et4g, iphone.. cmon now all the evo boys jumped to the 3d, all the epic owners jumped to the et4g (except all the ones that hate samsung with a burning passion now).

the bionic has more support because it is a newer device on a MUCH larger network. plus its the first dual core 4g device verizon has. sprints already been there and done that. plus the bionic was marketted way more than the photon was, hell you want proof of sprints piss poor advertisment? i iddnt see a single epic 4g ad until after it had launched by a month.. the evo commercials were filling my head and even evo shift way more often than the epic despite it being the higher end phone from the evo.

i mean cmon this is the mopho :P
