another way?

Via fastboot?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trey32:
firstly try hairdryer to fix volume buttons&wifi, maybe water somewhere left or maybe antenna is damaged? disassembly phone and try to add/put any wire 10cm to it

also you can try to fix wifi using this method (with files from post which i gave and said to place in microsd, but i think there is no point to do it because u already flashed RUU)

try

fastboot flash PB99IMG.zip

or

fastboot update PB99IMG.zip

I want to know about best Custom rom based on jelly bean, it should be battery friendly, performance, all basic function and without any bug.

Best rom depends on your taste.Various bugless roms are present. Useually stock based rom are more bugless. This thread would be closed down soon as these types of threads are not encouraged in xda . Many threads were closed in the past

all other things are fine :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] fards:
Latest version works a treat. Autofocus is a bit slow but can't have everything.:)

Auto rotate would be nice, and maybe making it a Small app?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] cities516:
Sounds like a plan. Keep it up!:good:

I think you can add tag [ALPHA] in the title of the thread, so that people will know the condition of this app.
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
Thanks :) OK

I currently work on making it customizable.

I have never worked with small app SDK, so may be in future.

Auto rotate is bit buggy and tricky, so I think, that it can wait until the last stages of development.

Thanks. Added.

PS. If you like this app, please rate it also on google play :)

PS2. Please vote for app name.

PS3. Keep posting suggestions :)

[MENTION=4700725]AGGevorgyan[/MENTION]

The new version fixed the force closure at the start of the app. It now works and I can take pictures with it (only tested outside of water so far!).

I would suggest, to not clutter the app with too much settings and keep it quite minimal, because when you are in water or underwater, you either don't have time (lack of air in lungs) or don't want to fiddle with many settings just to take a picture.

However, you could add a switch to enable video recording and start it with the proximity sensor. Also, please enable to turn of the Auto flash. I don't think it makes much sense underwater cause the water reflects the light anyway.

You could also change the app icon to a water drop with a camera inside, similar to what you have now, but add a finger which touches on the camera symbol inside the water drop to make it more appearent what the app is about.

My suggestion for an app name: Xperia Z Aqua Proximity Cam or Aquatic Z camera or Xperia Z Aqua Sensor cam

Lastly, I could help to translate the app settings (once there are settings) and description of the app in the play store into German. Let me know what you think about it.

The idea behind your app is simply awesome. So easy and a fresh idea. I like it.
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
I agree. But some settings can be set before going underwater.

I will add video switch in future. But currently you can just start recording before diving :)

Already working for flash switch.

Yes, that is good idea, but I am not designer or artist, so if anyone can help with this, that will be great.

I will add those to the poll if it is possible.

That will be cool, thanks. But at first I need proper/correct description in English, I am not so good in it.

Thanks goes to [MENTION=5061831]jakobdz[/MENTION]

Sorry, I don't planning this. Idea behind this app is proximity sensor. And volume keys will be used for zoom. But may be in future I'll add this as option. Thanks for suggestion :)
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Thraxzzz:
How about a time duration before it take shots?

Sent from my C6603 using voldemort's nose
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
v. 0.2.0

Added proximity sensor sensitivity setting. 3 options, based on time, during which you hold your finger on sensor. There is no another way, for example based on distance, because sensor of our phone returns only 2 values - 0.0 aka near, 1.0 aka far.

So options are

1. Maximum sensitivity (minimum time) - 100ms - default

2. Medium - 750ms

3. Minimum - 1500ms (1.5 seconds)

I hope this is what you want :)
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
v. 0.2.3

* Adjusted sensitivity settings

* Default sensitivity option set to "medium"

* Now keeps selected flash light mode (for example doesn't reset when rotating)

* Now keeps selected color effect (for example doesn't reset when rotating)

New sensitivity settings:

1. Maximum - 0ms

2. Medium - 500ms, default

3. Minimum - 1000ms
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] armutyus:
thanks for this great app mate. it works very good.
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:

Also one funny thing, it seems not only Xperia Z users want to take pictures underwater. For example 4 Galaxy S III owners thinks that they can go underwater with their devices, if will have this app :D
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] armutyus:

Hi, thank you for new added function...

Just for flash it doesn't stay in last configuration (reset) any solution?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
I tested it just now and it works correctly. All settings will stay during runtime. So if you close app and reopen, they can be resetted. I don't think, that saving settings for next application start is good idea. But we can discuss this and if many people will want this, I'll change this.

PS. During test I noticed another problem, when you set some resolution with 4:3 aspect ratio and changing to front camera, preview still shows 4:3 ratio instead of 16:9. I must fix this bug
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] jakobdz:

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
Ok guys. I'll add that in version 0.4.x :)

So where would you like to create folder? For example SD://Aqua Z Camera/ or SD://Pictures/Aqua Z Camera or somewhere else?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] jakobdz:
Why not in : DCIM/Aqua Z camera

؟؟؟
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] wawyed:
Avoid creating folders with spaces if you can, Aqua_z_Camera would be much more appropriate. ;)

hi,please add function for video recording in the same app(",)
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] jakobdz:
Download it from first post and install it like simple application
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] DashHax:
Great apps dude! Thanks for creating this. A few suggestions here for improvement :

- In-water changeable settings; change settings while underwater. To achieve this, try use closed proximity sensor + vol up/down combo to show a menu and use volume buttons to navigate and proximity sensor for selecting options

- Underwater zoom; use volume up/down button combo

- Video recording

That's just my opinion. Feel free to implement any of those. Other than that, YOU ROCK VERY MUCH MAN! XD :good:
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
DCIM also is good :)

Yes, before I was doing like that, but as I can understand there is not any problem with spaces. But still, in any case it may be better :)

I have another problem. Android hasn't such thing as removable storage. It's SDK has only "External Storage" which can be SD card or in our case it's just internal memory for saving files. It is confusing, because getting full path for SD card is inpossible from SDK and just hardcoding it as for example mnt/sdcard will not work, becuase it will change from device to device. I just trying to figure out how else it can be done.

However if you dunk your phone, do it with this app :D

I can't understand why. I made this app available in all countries. :(

Video recording is planned.

Underwater zoom with volume buttons also already planned.

But about underwater settings I can't say anything, because it will take very much effort but it's usefulness is not so visible.

PS. Little update. My vacation is over, so future updates may be slow. Just wait for it, or download via google play, use it as it is, and it will update automatically when there will be update available :)

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] cous:
Hi,

I make a try with my xperia V and the version 0.3.1 of your app ... and a works but with some little crashs :p

I have crashs when:

screen rotation

active front cam

otherwise it work fine. Thank for this great app !
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
Yeah, I have seen that :) Also on Sony Xperia Z page on facebook https://www.facebook.com/SonyXperiaZpage and mention in this video http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...roximity-sensor-on-xperia-z-xda-developer-tv/ also many reviews in different languages :)

Guys. The point is, that for stability I decided to hardcode all resolution and features stuff. For example on V it crashs, because I setting resolution of front camera to 1920x1080 (2mp) hardcoded and V is not supporting that resolution.

So. I definitely will add full support for Xperia V, Xperia Go, Xperia Tablet Z and any other Xperia waterproof device with lack of physical camera button. But I can't say when :)
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Rubenos:
You are a boss!!! Thanks for working out this briljant idea!!

One question, is the screen totally blocked from input? So it wont close?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] theguy1980:
Awesome app

Works perfectly and so fast. easier to take pictures even out of the water. great idea.
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
I don't understand question. But you can try it out :)
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] cjoenic:
yeah, hope it work for xperia go too!
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Rubenos:
Well, the biggest problem with recording a video in water with the Sony app, is that the water will hit every on screen button, it can find. So my question is, does you're app has some kind of security that the water won't click on all the settings?

Edit:

Also, ideas:

- Try not to use buttons, it seems that after a while the buttons will let water through, through the casing :(, I also think zoom won't have any effect in water.

- Maybe it's an idea for the best auto focus, that if you're holding your finger on the proximity sensor, it focuses, and if you let go, it takes the shot (if possible, i'm just giving my input :)).

- Is it possible to make something like this as a mod for the Sony camera app, in combination with Touch Block Small App from the ZR? Like the guy did with the hardware keys?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] zyclops1:
I have shared a small app on this thread,use it to lock ur screen.(touch only)

I think it help u temporary
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Rubenos:
I know, it's the same as I was talking about, 'Touch Block Small App from Xperia ZR' :).
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] AGGevorgyan:
Actually I never had problem with touchscreen. And in this app for example you must tap on screen twice, to open settings bar and it is harder for water to do something erong :)

About zoom, I think it will be nice to have, but with caution about leak problem.

Focus is continious autofocus, so there is no need for focusing when tapping the sensor.

And about mod, I just can say that never tried to develop mods, and never tried to customize roms or such things. I think that can be done by developer of that mod, nobody will be against that idea :)
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Rubenos:
Great! That's what I wanted to know, very logical actually :).

That's good, as long as you warn them!

I think you didn't understand my point. The thing is, as soon as you hit the proximity sensor, it takes a photo. If you want to focus good, and steady, it's better to hold your focus button (like a real camera), and than click further, or in this case, let go. It works like this with the other volume keys mod:

Volume down key: press down > focus

Volume down key: release > shoot

In that way, you could really focus good! Just an idea ;).

I'll suggest it to him, thanks!
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] zyclops1:

The camera is great.

I just wonder if we can make use of other sensors, e.g. the acceleration sensor to select options. For example, if you tap the camera from the top, you can travel down a menu.
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] jakobdz:
We thinking same :)

For the mod I think it's little hard but not impossible, by adding SCN or even edit scene like beach SCN so that we will have mod in stock camera.

Also, if can make flashable zip to add this function to camera, I think it's useful even in other daily pictures
