[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dutchman71:
Got some great video at the Van Halen show the other day. Unfortunately I can't use it anywhere because the audio sounds like the garbage disposal in my sink....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 916homie:
Mine is pretty damn good seen my friends 4s and wasn't impressed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
My Samsung Moment recorded the BEST AUDIO....even in mega high volume situations. (band practice, shows, bars, whatever)

...it also had a toggleable Automatic Gain Control option... you get us that option back, use a high bit-rate version of the camera app with the audio quality maxed out (44.1khz/16-bit/mono at the least) and I have no doubts that we could easily beat the iphone's audio quality.

So far as visual quality goes I don't now what you are talking about, the camera (still and video) on this phone only impresses me more the more I use it--and I've used it a ton.

It's ****ty software...period. Do you think the moment had better hardware? In any way whatsoever? At the worst the moment has the same exact microphone, at the best we have an even better one....hobbled by a ****ty software option made so people don't have 'too quiet' videos.

Screw AGC, make it hard-limit and/or (audio) compress it after it's recorded if you have to compensate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Does this have to do with the soundboard? Because my og epic had better sound quality when recording videos. The sound on the e4gt is crap...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
that's not how HDR works....and you are nuts. Our camera came out on top of the 4S's camera. Reviewed by people who went through the paces. At best it's a difference of what you or me think looks good...but....this camera is fncking amazing....maybe you got a bad sensor?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ydoucare:
No. The purpose of taking 3 pictures is to take them at different exposures, which then a software algorithm will go through and analyze them and combine them into 1 image with equal exposure across the entire image, thus creating an image with High Dynamic Range. Basically, equalizing the lightest and darkest parts of the image by using multiple images at different exposures and "stitching" them together.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Yes, this phone's camcorder/audio recorder needs an automatic gain control. I'm no programmer but I believe that's software not hardware.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
I'd even take an on-screen gain slider and VU meter....in fact, come to think of it, I'd really prefer it.

While I'm wishing for things I'd also like it to record 24-bit audio...then we can just turn it down later and not lose any audio data....and I'd also like a million dollars and a glow-in-the-dark lamborghini countach.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nubsors:
I would love to see some evidence that it stitches them together, it has been my experience that it uses the exposure of each of the 3 pictures to fix the first (1 picture).

As for the person who said that the camera on this phone beats the iPhone 4s, you can refer to all of the reviews you want but in real life use, the 4s takes better pictures in low light conditions (aka real life). If I'm outside in perfectly lit conditions than our pictures are comparable but that's simply not how the majority of people use our camera. I don't know how many times I have taken pictures at the same time as coworkers with the phone to only be disappointed by the quality of the photo the e4gt took comparatively.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
In this picture my friend waved his hand in front of my phone on the second or third exposure View attachment 950220

On this one we were on a moving train... View attachment 950225

If that doesn't look stitched together I don't know what does.

... And let's not forget about tone mapping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
I'd say given that the stock camera records audio (at the highest setting) at 62.9kbps @ 16kHz obviously the audio is crap. Custom roms usually have this bumped up to 44.1 - 48kHz at 128kbps. We can handle up to 192kbps though.

The video bit rates are less than good.

1080p

Normal: 13 Mbps

Fine: 15 Mbps

Superfine: 17Mbps

720p

Normal: 8Mbps

Fine: 10Mbps

Superfine: 12Mbps

There's a lot of room for improvement. Potatoman, myself, and a few others have added improvements, you just have to search for the altered stock cameras. Working on an enhanced stock camera for the ICS builds currently. It's proving to be a pain though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
...and I thank you for your efforts. I don't know who's enhanced camera I have, but, the audio is always crystal clear, so long as it doesn't get too loud.

Do you know if it uses a very aggressive ("make it the loudest constantly") automatic gain control or simply has a fixed too-high-for-loud-content gain setting? Because 16-bit 44.1/48kHz audio is more than enough dynamic range to capture very very loud audio very close to the source if the gain isn't pegged....I'm going to change my theory and say that I think it's just a too-high gain setting...an aggressive AGC would lead to noticable pumping and breathing for certain levels and types of sound. (That drove me nuts with my EVO4G)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
Well I'm not nearly as advanced as a lot of the others that have messes with the camera so I couldn't tell you if the gain is up way too much or not. I'll do some looking around in the class files and see if there's anything dealing with that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bondosho:
The camera is actually very good for stills, and the 720p video is great, albeit no video stabilization, not even digital like what the Sony Androids have, and now the iPhone4S. But since there isn't any noise cancellation, the audio comes out sounding like dung wrapped in toilet paper that was put in the microwave on high for 30 minutes. It actually made me go out and buy a dedicated camera, the Sony Cybershot TX100. INCREDIBLE video (1080-60p), and even better sound!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
That could just be the Van Halen music... Jk! ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PaulB007:
Any links I could find these altered cameras?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nubsors:
Yes but looking stitched together and actually taking the pictures and putting them together are not the same thing. I agree that the second picture makes a pretty strong argument. But I was hoping something from the developer would be provided as proof.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
2.3 GB

HERE is the GB one I edited for our phone. Pretty much stopped at that point on that camera. I might go back and tweak a bit more on it in the coming weeks.

HERE is the one from the I9100 forums my GB camera was based off of. It also works for our phones.

4.0 ICS

HERE is the one I've made for ICS. Still working on it also.

Lastly, check out lgCamera in the market if you're just looking for a quick install. I know it works well for 2.3, having a few minor issues with 4.0 but some could be settings related.

Okay Have a quick question and not sure where to post it so please bare with me. I have a car head unit that can Text message by Voice input and read them to me. Problem is it only works on 2 Phones. One of them I think it an older blackberry. My question is this. They Factory says it is a bluetooth protocall issue. How hard would it be to have and app that fixes these issues? If one phones buetooth works and another doesnt and proto calls just be switched or changed?? thanks:)

hey guys

this is a theme I have been working on for a longggggggg time.

This is made for Ineffebilis v1.3!

This is completely inspired and based off of Fernandor sor's absolutely incredible Tranquility Dark and cyan Inverted theme - found here

Credits:

Fernando Sor - For his theme base, inspiration, being an all around awesome guy, and a huge thanks for everything he does for me, and the community! Please at least go into his thread -here- and at the very least hit the thanks button!

Chingy and Newt - for an amazing ROM.

apktools

beyond compare

Rules

--Please don't ask me to change the text color, I kept the green text down to as minimal as I possibly could.

--Please don't ask me to change any icons/batterys/ anything like that, I made the theme how I like it, you are free to change it to your liking.

--Please feel free to use my theme as a base, just a Credit properly.

Installation

I would suggest flashing on a completely fresh install of the ROM.

Is this absolutely necessary? No.

Download theme, put on SD-Card, reboot to recovery

wipe cache and dalvik cache

flash .zip in recovery, reboot, profit.

Known-bugs

market text clash - FIXED -thx to Fernando!!

In WorldClock.apk world clock text is white on white - FIXED

the send button is black text in mms.apk

looking good dude. I actually like the green text a lot.
[HTC Rezound] cynikalJ:
Uhm love the theme but I have a weird issue when I open the dialer I cant hit the back button it just sits there, then I hit home and sense reloads everytime
[HTC Rezound] localceleb:
I'm actually going to revert back to gb just because of this theme....looks very nice. Hopefully battery life is as good for me on gb as it is on the new ics base
[HTC Rezound] andybones:
not theme related..
[HTC Rezound] cynikalJ:
Well it worked fine before I flashed the theme.....
[HTC Rezound] andybones:
I test thoroughly before releasing, and on multiple devices with multiple people.

unless you checked MD5, and installed on a fresh install of the ROM, there is nothing I can do.
[HTC Rezound] andybones:
does this mean you're going to hook me up with a skin :-)

haha I'm j/k my man
[HTC Rezound] cynikalJ:
I fixed it, apparently I have another theme mod installed that conflicted, working fine now and looks great good job!

Sweewt Andy. Keep up the awesome mods.
[HTC Rezound] dmoses1969:
Love it, thanks a lot. I was really liking the dark menus in ICS and went back to Inef1.3 today and that was the first think I noticed.

Just wondering, how hard would it be to make this black instead of grey or would it work? If you could point me to which images need changed to make them black I can do it myself. Just no sure which ones they are.

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] localceleb:
Is that normal? Some of the menu backgrounds are really light grey with white text. The mod was flashed after a fresh install also.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
The music player listview I personally never found. The second photo looks like htc hub just needs modified
[HTC Rezound] andybones:
hey nice finds man.

yea, there will be some clashes as I've changed the text color for the entire frameworks from black to white, and in some applications, they will use the white text but they have a white background.

the music app, I've been messing around with that for a while and can't seem to find that one area and it's really bugging me lol.

but the other one, that says ringtones at the top, where exactly is that, maybe I can try and diagnose that one!

I tried getting as many of the issues fixed as possible before releasing, but there's just sooooo many edits, Fernando is a beast.
[HTC Rezound] localceleb:
Ringtone is in settings>sound>phone ringtone. I would assume the same would apply to notification settings too
[HTC Rezound] andybones:
ok I see what you're saying. I:'ve been messing with this app actually, making the background to grey instead of black, and then I'm now trying to find how to change the text color. I'll have a new release soon too, I have some new themeing done, and a few dialers to choose from.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Yeah that ringtone would be in settings.apk not htc.hub. in GB most notifications are in systemui and downloadprovider. Some in framework.
[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
nice ill have to update my personal theme now, i love the grey menus.

Hi!

This is a simple display test tool which gives you the oportunity to test the LCD/OLED screen of your device. It is designed to allow full screen testing in Jelly Bean/ICS/Honeycomb devices by hiding the soft buttons but it can be used on every Android phone with Android 2.1 and higher.

-= Free features =-

◆ Dead pixel test: detect "dead pixels" by displaying a series of solid background color pages

◆ Color tests: contrast, gradient (banding) and saturation tests

◆ Gamma calibration tests (grey/red/green/blue)

◆ Viewing angle tests (This is useless for OLED displays)

◆ Multi-touch test

◆ Display performance tests

◆ Repair burn in - scrolling black & white bars

◆ Display measures info: screen size, GPU type, dpi, density-independent pixel size, OpenGL 1.x info, pixel format

◆ Real world pictures for reference and comparison

◆ 4-color gradient test with orientation change correction

◆ Pixel format & dithering tests

◆ Built-in font styles test

◆ Manually DPI measurement

◆ Color charts

◆ Touch screen dead spot tester

◆ System Fonts tester

◆ DIP / PX calculator

-= Pro features =-

◆ Full Chromecast support

◆ Repair burn in - noise (white, b&w, red, green, blue) => Only Android 2.2 and higher!

For activate the soft key hiding in Jelly Bean/ICS/Honeycomb use the preferences menu.

-= Gestures =-

◆ Slide left-right: change test image

◆ Slide up-down: change brightness

◆ Long touch: switch between full screen and normal screen (only Jelly Bean/ICS/Honeycomb)

When the soft-keys are hidden it is not easy to advance to the next screen: First tap to make the buttons appear, then a quick swipe for the next screen before the buttons are covered again.

The performance measurement does drawing as many full sized color boxes as it is possible on the screen and calculates at the end how many pixels are drawn in a Second in average. Here some display performance measures for comparison (Mpx/s is MegaPixels/Seconds):

Android Displ.size Norm.View SurfaceView
Mpx/s Mpx/s

Nexus S (4.0.3) 800x480 7,552 498
Galaxy Nexus (4.0.2) 1280x720 58,292 612
P1010 (2.2.1) 1024x600 575 555
Alcatel OneTouch 990 (2.2.2) 480x320 278 274

[Android Apps and Games] rjax:
I was looking for an app that would hide my G-Nex nav bar in order to hopefully fix the slight bluish tint I see at the bottom if the nav bar isn't there. This is the first one I found that will keep the screen on with a completely full screen image, so thanks!

Any suggestions on which mode to use get rid of the blue-tinted area? From reading elsewhere, it sounds like a solid color at full brightness might be the best approach, but I know you also have the burn-in fixing option with the black and white lines.

I tried the full hour of the black and white lines without seeing any improvement, so I'm wondering if maybe I just need to run it more. Or, if I should use the solid color option, which is the best color to use for that?

I see image-retention for the back, home, and multitasking buttons most clearly when I use the red screen, so is that an indication I should use red or another color, or should I just stick to white?

Thank you! :)
[Android Apps and Games] _jis_:
G+ link doesn't work.

Changelog is outdated, because the latest version is 3.8.15.

I have a problem with brightness gesture in Display Tester Pro on my Samsung Galaxy Note II with stock ROM 4.1.2. It just doesn't change the brightness at all. The same brightness gesture works for me in every other video player I have installed:

MX Player

VLC

DicePlayer

BSPlayer

Viral lite

Samsung Video Player

I have found only one another app where brightness gesture doesn't work as in Display Tester Pro - SuperTube.

Please can you take a look on this problem?
[Android Apps and Games] _jis_:
Today I returned to this problem and analyze it further and I have found the culprit, both apps Display Tester Pro and SuperTube Player are incompatible with SwipePad so I put them on SwipePad's Blacklist and brightness gesture now works again as it should.

I am sorry for unnecessarily bothering when problem was on my device.

My phone will reboot when I press the power button moments after I turn the screen off.

I have tried SetCPU multiple settings, and governors, but nothing seems to work.

I have also tried flashing multiple kernels, even stock!

I have reinstalled this ROM several times and the same result every time, I have tried Xperia ROM as well as the Titan rom, same result. Do I have a faulty phone?

Current ROM: Nocturnal Adrenaline 1.0.2

Current Kernel: 2.6.38.6-AnthraX-CMDA-Sense-cgoodman@buildbox01 #9

Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Try cheking your init.d folder to see if you have any startup scripts or scripts in general interfering with the kernel. I recall reading that chads kernels are already pretweaked and in some cases Rom developers may add scripts to tweak memory,app loading, etc. Well in some cases these may interfere with chads kernels, not saying that this is your issue just saying it might be that is if you haven't already ruled it out. Also if your s-off you can always ruu back to stock to see if the issue still remains..By the way what software ver are you on ?? And have you ran the latest updates??

#Root_Hack-Mod*Always\
[HTC EVO 3D] zanekills:
Thanks for your response.

I don't think the init.d folder would be an issue because:

1. Chad's kernel came preloaded in the ROM

2. I haven't put any start up scripts

Software version: 2.08.651.3 Nocturnal'd

Baseband Bersion: 0.97.10.0808

Android: 2.3.4

Latest updates? I didn't run sofware updates since forever
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Have you checked the folder ?? Also you should try system timer for overclocking with chads kernels Imo and from what I've read it works a lot better. Also as fat as the updates you can hit the dev section to find freezas aio zip with the latest updates and read what they are for to see if you want to update or not.

Here's the thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1443592

Towards the end of it frezza and haux both posted aio's so you have a choice.

I flashed freezas without any issues at all. I strongly urge to read a lot of that thread and heed all of the warnings as well.
