Yeah should be the 3.0 version. The issues youre seeing won't be fixed via a camera software update, it will be via firmware drivers.

The DNA and the latest jb update for original HOX have the same issues as we all share similar firmware basically.

HTC seem to be going for a less grainy and lower iso values currently.
[HTC One X+] struff:
I am sad to see that the + seems inferior to the original X?

Can anyone compared the + quality to the HTC Inspire? I have been pleasantly surprised by my Inspire's quality all along. Concert pics look like I used a much more expensive camera and I can crop and re-crop and re-re-crop and the pics still look good.

I had been wanting an X since they first came out but the lack of SD card annoyed me so I figured the + would be great for me.

Thanks.
[HTC One X+] nagpochenpo:
yes, htc don't likes us ;)

i like your mod, tested almost all camera apps and what the mod did is really nice. only "shot control" seems to have "good" quality too.

hope there will be a firmware soon

Contacted HTC

I wrote an email to HTC regarding the issue. I was pleasantly surprised, when I received a response within 30 mins. Even more surprised when it was an actual person, and not an automated response. According to Edgar, they are going to research the issue.

Does anyone here have experience with HTC support? Are they good about following up on such issues, and issuing a fix?
[HTC One X+] arminyack:
Look at these 2 pictures of my cat Sasha....and one of another cat, Fifi. The first was with the Samsung Galaxy SIII w/ the 4.2 camera. The next with the HOX+ with the 4.2 camera as well. Both were set to Night scene, all other setting were auto. The last pic was taken with a iPhone 5, just point n shoot.

HOX+

I think it's been proven 100x over the hox+ is a joke in low lighting regardless u try to bandage it with 4.2 or that hox camera mod out. Fact is, we need a real firmware fix. In the mean time, bandage up the camera with JB 4.2
[HTC One X+] iggdawg:
I'd actually like to try out the 4.2 camera. but I've seen a lot of sources for it. can you recommend a particular build/thread that's given good results? And have there been any caveats like video recording?
[HTC One X+] deeznuts:
Not sure where to find it a la carte to install but running the latest elegancia 2.2 rom for ATT in Aroma installer you have the option to have it cooked into the rom if you choose to. I did of course hoping to have a better camera and i'd say it's a step better than the stock 4.1 camera. Have yet to use video recording so not sure on that but seems more responsive for pictures. Think there's no way we can get away from this low light issue until HTC comes out with a firmware update since it's probably due to their "Image Chip" or whatever it's called hardware installed. Might be out of the developers hands here, idk?
[HTC One X+] iggdawg:
TY for the info. I'll check that out. not sure if I'm ready to go flashing different ROMs yet, but I can try to rock the camera on its own.

I agree on the image chip thing. I think it "doctors up" lowlight images between when the image is taken and when android gets a hold of it. here's to hoping HTC hears us and does something about it. everyone having an issue should bug their support team. they really have no other way of knowing it's a concern.
[HTC One X+] XSafire:
This is the camera I use, I've had no problems with it. This comes with all the 4.2 Gapps, so if you just want the camera you can extract the gallery.apk and push it to system/app, change the permissions to rw-r-r, then restart.
[HTC One X+] Krzysiec:
I have to addmit that camera in present condition is kind of joke compared to One X :/ Photos there are much much better! No blurry edges....

[HTC One X+] iggdawg:
I installed the 4.2 camera from this thread and it worked more or less perfectly:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1966313

All things function including photosphere. Video recording works but it isn't good at all compared to stock as far as I can tell. photosphere is pretty cool. not sure how much I'll use it but it's neat. Focus isn't as quick or accurate as stock, but with some care you can get it to focus well.

to install it I checked out the updater-script and moved files manually, backing up old ones and not replacing libraries that already existed. didn't take long.
[HTC One X+] Joppe68:
I agree with you all, the HOX+ camera quality is really, really bad. HTC should fix this real soon. Hope some of you manage to push HTC people to provide a solution......

Please contact HTC

Everyone,

Please contact HTC, as I have. This is the only way the issue will truly be taken seriously. HTC builds a quality product, and I would never consider purchasing another brand. However, software and firmware glitches happen. It just takes many voices, to ensure a quick fix. :)
[HTC One X+] nagpochenpo:
contact_us@htc.com or from website ;)
[HTC One X+] n_babyk:
really dont know what to say i have both one x and one x plus international and i get green photos during nighttime with flash on anyone experiencing this?

[HTC One X+] ///M Class:
I went directly to their website, and used the support contact form.

What is your "white balance" set on? I switch to florescent when using the flash.
[HTC One X+] starfox5194:
could someone who is getting "excellent" nighttime image quality please post some proof photos? My low-light/indoor photos look like someone put them through photoshop with the paintbrush filter. Also sorry for being a hypocrite and not posting an example photo of my poor shots, there are a few earlier in this thread that pretty much sum it up though.
[HTC One X+] arminyack:
So I wrote HTC about what I thought of there camera...and although I did get a response from an actual person...the response itself was lame and very generic. It might as well have been an auto-reply.
[HTC One X+] ///M Class:
While that is disappointing, I would hope that numerous emails regarding the same issue might light a fire under their ass. :D
[HTC One X+] ///M Class:
Wish I could say I had any "excellent" photos on this phone. :(
[HTC One X+] somemadcaaant:
Is every one just using the stock auto over exposed camera settings? This is not an iPhone made for kids.

Take a few mins and try different settings or at least reduce the exposure by 2 notches. Huge difference in quality.

Or try my media profiles config I posted for the jb 4.2 camera if you want something different, gives 100% quality and 9mb image files.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35746341
[HTC One X+] nagpochenpo:
i'm using stock with min sharpness and +2 in light and contrast. what settings to you mean exactly?
[HTC One X+] somemadcaaant:
Typo corrected above.

Try exposure -2, contrast -1 and sharpness -2, works for me for out side shots.

Also using jb extreme camera v4.0 with 100% quality setting.
[HTC One X+] nagpochenpo:
i'll give it a try. even using extreme 4.0. do you use pic enhancement and/or zsl?

the profile in the other tread is for gapps-cam, or extreme? (i have both installed)

thanks and regards
[HTC One X+] skdubg:
it doenst work. phones not booting
[HTC One X+] nagpochenpo:
works for me, quality seems still a bit better now - but my old dhd still makes a lot better pics.
[HTC One X+] n_babyk:
i have great photos during the day but when it comes to night time i use flash photos comes out green not sure whats happening. if i use flash during the day i still get that green picture
[HTC One X+] somemadcaaant:
Yeah I turn down the manual exposure and use the zsl exposure and auto edge enhancement camera settings selected in extreme 4.0 camera app.

The profile is a modded stock camera media profiles so will work for both.

I'm not sure mate I'm using football's stock Rom tho. The media profiles xml has nothing to do with system booting in any way.

Yes
[HTC One X+] JGKC9AYC:
I'm disappointed to hear about the poor picture quality on the HOX+.

I currently have a N4, but was interested in trading it for the HOX + because I take a lot of pics with my phone.

I'm hoping something can or will be done because I want the best all-around phone I can have.
[HTC One X+] somemadcaaant:
Hox+ should take much better photos then the n4 sensor in all conditions.

Ppl are complaining mostly about the low light quality, but all mobiles have that issue imo.

Contact HTC

I have been persistence in attempting to contact HTC regarding the camera quality issue. I was finally able to get in touch with a rep who took the time to evaluate, and escalate the issue to a higher department. I took a number of pictures, at different image/ISO settings, and forwarded them to Matthew. He acknowledged everything we have been describing, took down my phone info, contact info, and said he will keep in touch. I have included a short quote from our email conversation. But he encourages everyone here, with camera quality issues, to contact HTC again.

Matthew @ HTC wrote:

"The primary reason I had you take the picture specifically at a high ISO was to see if the grain in a low-light ISO was the same in the default high-speed ISO (100) -- and honestly, it does look like the same type of ISO-based image noise. I'm not sure about the anti-aliasing between the TV/Wall (and in the outside photo -- between the branches/sky and the metal fence posts on the right) -- but it honestly appears to me that this is a non-normative picture considering the quality of the camera on the device.

With that out of the way I've just finished conferring with our Escalation Department and, if you wouldn't mind, I would like to escalate this issue for tracking. Keep in mind that this doesn't expressly mean that you will be getting an immediate call back with a resolution. The primary reason I'm doing this is because it is a new issue that we would like to look into a little further and then go from there. I just wanted to provide that disclaimer so that I didn't set the expectation that this would be an automatic fix. We will probably need to research this a little bit.

Also, just to touch on your last point regarding sharing your experience on a forum -- were I to make a suggestion: if there are other people specifically experiencing degraded image quality on their devices, have them contact us via phone or eMail. Since this is something new that we are hearing about, the more information and cases we have to examine -- the better. Encourage them to also contact us regarding this. They will need to do a little basic troubleshooting first -- but we can all move forward from there!"
[HTC One X+] nagpochenpo:
thanks :) do you have matthews email? last time i wrote to htc i only get a standard blabla response.

Please help-me

If it is not too cumbersome, you could tell me if when I put the original rom back again also old firmware. For after I updated the firmware to 1.35 to hboot my camera is in any rom with images like a camera with 1.3 mega pixel resolution. It was very bad. I've asked many people to help, but nobody can help me, and if you can I'll be very grateful.

Have reinstalled the firmware again and plumb so when I install any rom (HD Android, Venom, Elite Icon) is the camera with the image as if it were a little grounded.

Help me please, if you can

Hi, friend,

I'm after firware upgrade hboot 1.32 to hboot 1.35, my camera no longer works right. It seems that 8 megapixel she now has only 1.3. The picture quality is terrible. Do you know the problem
[HTC One X+] cowboysgz:
yes dude! I have the same problem. I just bought my X+ 5 days ago and for the first time I tried taking a picture at night and it comes out green whenever I use the flash. Have you solved it? I read that it has something to do with the update, meaning I updated to 4.2.2 stock rom. I never tried taking a pic while on 4.1.1

Are the slides playing from the Nexus 10, or from another device?

If it's just from a computer, I would install Gmote 2.0 and be done with it.

I think you might want an Anker® OrientEX Mini Bluetooth Handheld Keyboard with Multi-Touchpad / Laser Pointer I bought one and it is a really clever device. It is great for operating the tablet (or a PC) remotely. The touchpad works like a mouse and the keyboard is functional. It also has a laser pointer built into it. It is a really geeky item and you wouldn't want to use it for extended typing, but works fine for running a powerpoint or managing streaming videos, etc.

I received my Nexus 4 today. It came before it was schedualed to as I was one with a 2-3 week estimated delivery. Which was 4 working days before the earliest delivery.

First thing I noticed is it is heavier than I expected and the inside of the box had white dust all over. Next the plastic protectors that it comes with are much better than I have seen on any other device more like screen protector for front and back with cutouts for the sensors and camera. If these were just like shipping protectors they would not be as thick nor bother to have cut outs for sensors. The Nexus 4 with the protectors on does not slide all over. I laid it on my leg at a 45 deg angle and it did not slide.

We don't need to see a new thread every single time someone else gets the Nexus 4. You could've quite easily used one of the other threads.

[Nexus 4 General] donec:
This is a thread I am going to be updating as I learn. If you don't want to follow it no one is making you.

As I learn about my Nexus 4 since I have never had such a device the things I find may help some other newbie. Also I seem to have a different opinion of some things like how slick it is, the weight and the protectors that came on it.

Now when I got it the battery was at about 70% and I have run it down to 40% charged it and run it down to 20%. Of course I was doing a lot of WiFi downloading, file transferring (via WiFi Explorer Pro), bluetooth and WiFi file transferring (to and from my Wi-Drive), streaming videos and songs (via my Wi-Drive) and watching internet youtubes. But that doesn't seem like an impressive battery to me even though it is more than I will normally need.

I have not done the upgrade yet probably tomorrow.

I have learned that I can remove the icons at the bottom of the screen and even turn them into folders. I am having a hard time trying to get dropbox to sync automatically. I can't find a setting for that. It seems each app needs to be told to sync now or it doesn't sync. I suspect it really is just something I have not figured out yet.

I tested the screen for bleed and found no bleed whatever. Same goes for dead pixels. The sound is rather good but not smooth enough for good listening. However! I found that when I have the volume turned all the way up and insert my ear buds the sound automatically drops to about a quarter full volume yet I can turn the volume all the way up and with my ear buds it gets just a little too loud but of course it is a much smoother and cleaner sound.

I tried to connect it to my computer running Linux Mint 13 KDE and could not see it.

I made several calls via WiFi with Groove IP and the sound was quite good for me and the people said they could hear me fine, but more testing is needed.

I also can't seem to get the Neo/Tv remote app to work and no clues yet.

I want to get this phone and have stock ICS/Sense on it!

However, I want to be able to play games smoothly, and I want this phone to be compatible with lots of games.

With 1GB of RAM and 1.5 GHz Dual-Core processor, that shouldn't be an issue... right?!?!

I want games. Like, Angry Birds, Bad Piggies, Fun Run, Temple Run, Infectonator, Dead Trigger, Shadowgun, etc.

Can I do this? Or am I asking for too much!!

Thanks in advance, guys!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Kobraki17:
Games for me run nice and smoothly - just keep in mind we have a very intense screen that will drain battery if too bright and on for too long.

I have played nearly all of those games on NRG's Stock ICS ROM, and have experienced 0 lag while playing them.

Get the Nexus 4 don't even think about the Htc one s (I am assuming that you have a budget). It would cost you around 250 dollars for an amaze in extremely good condition with box on eBay, while you can get the Nexus 4 for 350 dollars (16gb) version from the play store which is in a league of its own and quite cheap with high development. Just think it would be more future proof for 100 more bucks (its unlocked as well). It's such a beautiful device too :)

Sorry for the hijack but I'd like to ask the gamers here one quick question if you prefer I can open a different thread but I'm running NRG rom and lately (after installing and playing Hill Climb Racing) my phone is acting out.

First started with lots of lag on the game (sometimes is impossible to play) and then I get the black screen that won't wake up (yes I do have the CPU @ 374 or whatever it is that it has to be at idle).

Any help???

Thanks,
[HTC Amaze 4G] hatlesssandman:
Sounds like you are running out of ram, hence the lagging. Close some apps in the background and see if that helps. Secondly it can be the rom because when I was on cm my games were lagging (temple run was lagging bad) switched to sense 4.1 and it was back to being buttery smooth. Hope that helps
