I'm not too big a fan of the camera either. I thought it was just my case screwing up pictures.
[HTC EVO 3D] kiewee3:
Just wait till next year because you can get HTC's next flagship phone at this time of year 2013. Plus the evo3d doesn't have bad specs and with ics/sense 4.0 its great

[HTC EVO 3D] NuttyLemonz:
I was thinking of upgrading but sense 4 on my evo has kinda changed my mind, really enjoying it. I think I can make another year with the 3d, and definitely recommend trying out Newts or joelz sense 4 roms before you decide to upgrade.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
I am not sure how others take notes and avoid this issue, but when I attempt to take notes on the Note, almost always my palm touches the "Menu" or the "Back" capacitive button and the note in progress either gets saved or cancelled.

I was looking forward to writing on the note extensively for note-taking, but it seems impossible with the palm touching the capacitive buttons. Would a developer with know-how on this subject look into disabling the capacitive buttons while taking notes with the S Pen and the palm placed on the screen, or devise another solution? Thanks for exploring this issue in advance.

Please note:

Anyone commenting on this thread, I appreciate your intentions, but please DO NOT suggest ANY OTHER APP. I am purely focused on the S Note and Memo apps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] skillz9669:
Well there is a way to disable the buttons on many roms already. Are you talking about a way to do it while unrooted? And are you trying to keep the touchwiz interface and use the smemo app??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] btyork:
No, You can turn the light off, but the button sup works. I think he wants to disable then completely.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
Yes, I was wondering if the buttons can be disabled completely while taking notes, regardless of the ROM. Taking notes while the palm is lifted off the screen is just not natural and am not sure how Samsung saw people writing like that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
There are few apps in the market that have palm reject feature. This will disable the capacitive buttons.

Even the standard s memo should have this feature.

here is a script to disable the capitative buttons, it works perfectly on stunners rom ( haven't tried on any others ) and with the euphoria control you can disable the lights so those buttons are gone forever
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] yyl:
I think this issue has been addressed in the new ICS stock ROM. For example, if you use your finger to press the capacitive button in S Memo, the button will work as intended. But if you place your entire palm on the right-lower part of the screen (including the capacitive button), the button doesn't respond. I just tried writing a long note with my palm resting on the screen and the capacitive button, and the app was working fine.)

I don't know if it makes a difference, but in the S Memo settings, I had set the screen to only respond to S Pen edits. Just FYI.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
Setting the screen to respond to just the pen helps a lot actually, but as you slide down while writing, the palm becomes less of a palm surface and touches the back button and the note gets saved. So it would greatly help of someone can disable the capacitive buttons altogether until some action is taken to wake them up.

The script suggested in the post above seems like an option but a simpler solution would be great.

It will be nice if someone can help to disable this annoying button.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] XpLoDWilD:
There's no way to detect the palm everywhere - it would require quite a few painful changes in AOSP.

There is obviously a way to disable capacitive buttons totally, but you'd need to reboot to toggle.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
As I said before since the later releases of GB rom , when using s memo , there is an auto detect feature which rejects palm and also disables the capacitive buttons.

Try pressing the capacitive button with the s pen close to the screen.

@Galaxy Note™…
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CreepyDroid:
I confirm. I'm on official ics and the capacitive buttons are disabled when the pen is too close to the screen (and it's anywhere not only in smemo)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alahdal:
Now, I got the trick. Usually I put my palm before the pen reaches the screen.

User should put the pen then they can put his palm wherever he wants, nothing will happen both buttons are disabled.

TEST in ICS official LPY.

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
Damn ... This was what i trying to say from the begining...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chintamanijaipuri:
Thanks buddy. Now I can take notes with my palm resting.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
I understand what you and alupatti are saying but when I am writing on the screen, the palm will slide down and it's not always you can focus on placing your pen first on the screen.

Thanks xplodwild for your input, too, as a developer. It just seems like a case of poor design which we are stuck with, unfortunately, until there is a real solution.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
The pen need not be on the screen. It activates when the pen is a few mm away from the screen
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CreepyDroid:
It might look silly but consider taking notes with your phone upside down. That way the evil capacitive buttons won't get in the way :D

Doesn't affect the lights, just the functionality of the buttons. ;)

@tremeron. Do you think your disable buttons flash zip can be adapted like a on/off switch on toggle bar or somehing like that?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Markhypnosis:
Download "jotter" from the market. The capacitive buttons are fully disabled at all times.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kangal:
You're question has been answered.

Get "Jotter for Galaxy NOTE" from the PlayStore.

Support our hard-working developers and pay for it, its only a few bucks.

It will automatically disable the Capacitive buttons and the Capacitive Screen, when the S PEN hovers over the display. Or when it touches the display.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
Jotter is a good app but it is not as integrated as the S Note, and lacks several features of the premium suite, which I need.

I'm still looking for an answer to my question and would greatly appreciate if someone can comment on how TREMER's scripts work. Someone has to know, after all.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kangal:
I see what you're saying.

You want a universal application of it.

Well your solution will only be available in the form of an AOSP MOD, so you're going to lose S PEN, just a heads up.

The solution isn't posted here, but I'm certain it was posted in the SGS2 forum. Look over there, and they should be compatible with the NOTE. The only problem is you would have to go to Settings or an App on your Homescreen and toggle them off. Then toggle them on.

I think it would get very tedious, and counter-productive so not really worth it... unless someone makes it as a Toggle for AOKP (Notification Tray).

The other point I should make is that the NOTE wasn't designed the way you want to use it. You really are "using it wrong" and I'm not joking. The NOTE's screen is TOOO SMALL for you to rest your palm and work it like an A4 paper. Its more of a notepad, as its name implies. You are meant to cradle it with one hand, and use the other to tap/draw on it. So that the drawing hand is hovering and resting on the pen, which rests on the screen. IE used like the old Windows Mobile devices which had stylus and resistive panels.

Here's how your supposed to draw with it in your hand:

Here's how your supposed to draw with it on a surface, possibly also holding the phone stationary:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
Thanks for the detailed response.

If I lose the S Pen functionality the mod is of no use. I'm struggling to understand why no one has picked up on this need and developed a toggle app which enables and disables the capacitive buttons on the Note.

I disagree with you that the Note is not designed to have the palm rest on the screen, as there is in-built palm rejection function for S Memo and S Note. The design encourages the user to take notes naturally, but unfortunately doesn't reject palm touches on the capacitive buttons.

I request accomplished devs again to look into this and develop a toggle for the captive buttons. I imagine it will become a default app and a must-have for everyone with the Note. Please. :)

There is a premium note taking app called jotter, it have all the s note functions, and allow you to disable the back key, and this is very handy and I agree with you that we can rest our hands on the screen to have agood control
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
Thanks, but Jotter is not as versatile as the SMemo and Note apps, as I have already stated in this thread.

Anyone commenting on this thread, I appreciate your intentions, but please DO NOT suggest ANY OTHER APP. I am purely focused on the S Note and Memo apps.

Having a toggle for enabling and disabling the capacitive buttons takes the ability to use the Note to a whole new level, and I hope a dev will look into this. Thanks.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
What u r asking for is possible but not done yet.

U will need some dev to edit the s memo application to have this feature or have some one develop a toggle. Both are not looking promising.

I really also need a simple toggle app to disable the capacitive keys, some apps/games are very hard to play because of acidental back button press... :/ would be great if somebody developed one. The cwm flash to disable/enable the buttons works, but having to reboot each time to enable/disable isn't a real solution.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] fuel925:
Any news on this yet?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] incisivekeith:
It's a lost cause, it seems. No one seems to focus on that functionality, although it kind of defines the Note. It's very disappointing that Samsung didn't fix the whole capacitive buttons staying active during writing using the Spen.

I realize I'm in the wrong forum here, but no fix for the Note II either?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hihipunkt:
The best workaround Is to turn the GNote so that the buttons are on the left side when viewing it landscape. Maybe we can somehow hack a 180° flip for the portrait mode in too? Then the buttons would be at the top and it'd look stupid, but it seems to be the easiest solution.

[HTC One X] Radiognome:
With so many choices of camera apps for your HTC ONE, I thought I would put a quick comparison together. This way you get to see the results side by side, making the differences far easier to see. This is not a test of functionality, but more importantly image quality.

The four apps chosen for this test were,

1. HTC One on-board camera app

2. Camera FV-5

3. Camera ICS

4. Camera 360

Each camera app was set to, no zoom, 100 ISO and the photographs were taken under varying light conditions, but the results are still clear to see. All the images below have not been edited and are uploaded as the original files, so feel free to click on the link below each photo to see in larger format.

TEST 1

Camera 360

http://flic.kr/p/bWqNWq

Camera ICS

http://flic.kr/p/bWqNVu

Camera FV-5

http://flic.kr/p/bWqNNL

HTC Camera

http://flic.kr/p/bWqNNE

As you will see from the images the HTC Camera application does not blow out the whites with over exposure and compared to the camera FV-5 file which is a 12.5 MB PNG compared to the 3 MB HTC camera JPEG file, there is no more detail resolved in the FV-5 photo. In fact all the third party application photos show no more detail and all suffer from over exposure and severe purple fringing.

TEST 2

Camera 360

http://flic.kr/p/bWr6Cy

Camera ICS

http://flic.kr/p/bWr6C9

Camera FV-5

http://flic.kr/p/bWr6Cf

HTC Camera

http://flic.kr/p/bWr6B1

Very similar results once again to test 1, with the HTC camera outperforming the other applications in this comparison.

TEST 3

Camera 360

http://flic.kr/p/bWrizG

Camera ICS

http://flic.kr/p/bWriys

Camera FV-5

http://flic.kr/p/bWriyA

HTC Camera

http://flic.kr/p/bWrixU

At this point the results are becoming consistent and I’m sure to the surprise of many users the HTC camera application is actually superior!

So to conclude:

1st HTC Camera Application

2nd Camera FV-5, Camera ICS, Camera 360 and the results from all three of these were much the same and underwhelming. I’m sure many users will psychologically think these apps have to be better due to the file sizes and adjustable image compression, but this is not seen in practise.

[HTC One X] robt772000:
Do the other camera apps use the image sense chip or just the cpu like most other phones?
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Thanks for doing this test.

With a 28mm f2.0 lens, I wonder if apps struggle with automatic exposure control?

It could explain why all apps over expose, if this lens lets in more light than most camera lenses.

Did you try auto ISO?
[HTC One X] Radiognome:
Firstly robt772000, I would also like to know if the other camera apps use the image sense chip. As I'm sure that I read somewhere that the image data is sent in raw format to the image sense chip for processing.

BenPope, I did not try auto iso for this test, as I wanted to capture the best possible quality from each camera app and also I selected iso 100 to keep the results consistant. But I will run a quick test using auto iso and see if the results change.

Thank you both for your input!
[HTC One X] LTavaress:
The whole point of Camera FV-5 is customizing all the settings as you would do on a DSLR, you need to know how to better-custom it, if you do so the pictures will look amazing. There is no "auto" setting on camera FV-5, there is also no pre-set config like "sunny" for white balance for instance
[HTC One X] Radiognome:
L Tavaress, I understand your point, but if the metering is way out on FV-5, you do not have a very good base for customization. All DSLR's depend on accurate metering for any given situation. Not having the luxury of being able to adjust the shutter speed and aperture, leaves you somewhat restricted. With the only options being iso and exposure compensation this will make photo taking painfully slow and many opportunities will be lost, while tumbling for the correct adjustments.

So I assume trips cm9 will have a lot of over exposure due to it having the stock ics camera?
[HTC One X] LTavaress:
You're right!!! The fixed aperture thing is such a pain in the @$$
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
It can just be compensated with faster shutter speeds to keep exposure down.. Or lower ISO values, which is even better.
[HTC One X] ajftl:
Oh. Cm9 uses the aosp camera app. Probably not even wide screen option... I still dont get why people use Cm9. To plain to my taste.
[HTC One X] twe69:
Wondering what rom version you are on? Am guessing 1.29+?
[HTC One X] charles.chip:
FOUND AN ALTERNATIVE TO sense camera !

use any camera app and reduce exposure time, you will get almost the same image quality as the sence camera. I have tested this on CM9. worked with Camera FV-5 and Camera360. The settings are saved so u dont have to bother next time u start the app. and it is more convenient on the FV-5(use the latest version). Only thing you will miss is the assum burst mode !! and in video capture. Thats all.

This is most helpful for cm9 users.
[HTC One X] dakine:
The real issue is that this phone has bad saturation and whitebalance settings no matter what camera software you use.

More Shots

Can anyone provide more shots with HTC ONE and third-party cam's (Camera FV-5), after settings tweak?

Is it actually possible, to make pic look better than on stock camera?
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
The big problem with the One stock app is that in low light it tends to slow the shutter speed too much (for a phone) even with the internal stabilization, something slower than 1/10 sec will end blurry even if you keep your hand still.

The solution will be an app that controls shutter speed or to tweak the stock apk (they just tweaked jpeg compression)
[HTC One X] Blubster:
This thread is about One X, not the One that came in 2013... Look at the dates of the differents posts before yours...

You revived a thread that is older than a year!
[HTC One X] KromerX:
Model name

I see that. But look at the name of this topic. Am I wrong? Or maybe moders are wrong? Or Maybe author just screwed up?

Whatever it was, this topic and model name in it is rather ambiguous.
[HTC One X] Blubster:
That's because the HTC One X was branded as "the One", a year before HTC One. I know, this is *very* confusing...

My HTC One X was like that when i unboxed it.

See? "I'm the One you've been waiting for"

What i think, and only OP could answer this, is that this thread was made for both the One X and the One S, as they share the same camera technology.

So yes, now this thread title is confusing, as it has nothing to do with the HTC One... Maybe it should have been "HTC ONE Series which camera app a quick review". But even this would have been confusing now that there is HTC One and HTC One mini and both share the same ultrapixel sensor...

Shame on HTC for choosing these branding names for the last couple generations...... :/
