Not that I'm doubting you or anything but you do realize that the back cover only has a hole through to the lens?

You might try setting the brightness higher:

If you touch the small rectangle near the bottom right side of the screen (when holding landscape)

Then select the gear symbol, then select brightness from the menu and hit the "+" until it looks better that will remove most of the darkness.
[Touch HD General] mach03:
The camera is a plain disappointment. In the time the camera autofocusses, I could have bought a Sony Ericsson C905's, create a good looking photo (with xenon flash) and upload it to imageshack.

If 'your object' makes the slightest move, your photo will be blurry :confused: . This is also the case when you attempt to make a photo of someone that isn't aware he or she has to be waiting for the autofocus lag. Head moves >>> blurry pic.

iPhone camera shots are way better quality, don't ask me why. Overall my Touch HD scores 8/10, where atleast 1 full point is taken up by the camera :o
[Touch HD General] jackthekayman:
and it's better don't speak about the very laggy video recording :p
[Touch HD General] arfster:
Too many megapixels on a tiny sensor = major noise problem = blurring from denoise.

Even 2mpixels is too much for sensors this size, but people buy on marketing numbers of megapixels, not quality. You can just imagine the whining that would occur if the Touch HD came out with 1.3mpxiels, even though it would produce better pictures.
[Touch HD General] itje:
hehe, thats true.

mpixels dont count as much as the general public belives. the more mpix. the higher rezolution you can print the picture in. but for ordinary photos, 1.3 mpix would be enough, as long as the optics is good.
[Touch HD General] tkalli:
Personally, I rarely use a phone camera.

I use either my Olympus 720SW or Canon EOS.

​
[Touch HD General] Pierced Soul:
the camera sucks **** compared to the n95 and the video recording is horrid. i know it's not meant to be as good as a dedicated camera but this is pretty bad given the price of the device.

i concur with mach03, move the camera a slight bit and eveyrthing gets blurred. one way i've semi gotten aorund this is to unlock the burst functiona nd take a sequence of pics and hope one or two coems out alright, not the most economic way to do it though...

i would ahve thought that maybe there's a way to tweak the camera to stop the blurring or even affect how much light is picked up by the lens which should also help with clarity
[Touch HD General] Rozenthal:
A silly idea, but seriously, did you check if maybe, just maybe, you left the "sepia" effect turned on??? :D
[Touch HD General] Vampire2800:
Good thinking, Rosenthal, but I don't mess with any of that crap. I'm just not going to use it for picture taking. No big deal. Really expected more from it but, Oh Well. No sepia, no negative, no night mode, no inverse, no black & white, no nothing. Just normal picture taking. Oh well. Thanks guys for your suggestions.
[Touch HD General] jackthekayman:
any chances that the things get better with new firmware or new rom?
[Touch HD General] Vinski-:
Slight change. Some color issues can be optimized through software, and also video recording could become better.

I think the main problem with the video recording is just way too slow sensor, its not the software. My Nokia E90 video quality is like from another planet, 640x480 and more importantly, the motion is smooth. Hehe propably even my old nokia 3660 from 2004 produced smoother videos than my new shiny blackstone.
[Touch HD General] ez2remember:
If you're going to take videos don't set to VGA (15FPS) but to CIF as this will give you smooth videos at 30FPS. The microphone still sucks though recording at very low volumes. Compared to the Nokia N-Series smarpthones which takes very good videos and pics.

Overall still love the HD but would of been nice with a better camera / videocam.
[Touch HD General] Rozenthal:
Well, since I'm a photorgapher, I'd really like to offer another word of advice.

After thinking over what you described, and saying you don't mess with any settings, I'm pretty much sure I know what's been your problem.

It's the white balance. I'm betting you were taking photos indoor, probably at dark, with your ambient incandescent lighting turned on, right? Well, the automatic white balance isn't really that great pick for night shots. It will work very nice at daylight, sunny weather etc, but for any artificial lighting situation, you need to fiddle around with setting the WB manually.

Basically, you should go to your camera, get to the settings screen and set white balance to the little icon that shows a light bulb. I'm pretty sure you'll get rid of the "yellowish" effect you've been having.

Unfortunately, the photo will still remain grainy. It's simply a limitation of the sensor size and it's (in)ability to artifically increase sensitivity to light. This is nothing strange, same goes for pretty much every cell phone camera out there. Even the smaller compact cameras can't pull out much better shots. For perfect images, you need perfect gear - basically a digital camera with interchangeable lenses.

And, even tough everyone seems to be very mild about Touch HDs photo quality, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. For such a small sensor, the photos are sharp with nice colors (in daytime), and I'm sure I'll use it here and there to snap a few photos of friends etc. Biggest downfall is the lack of flash, wich I'm sure will frustrate many trying to take photos in night-time rapid scenes, such as bars and clubs.
[Touch HD General] ionutz6:
I have to agree with you, to me the picture quality is very bad, surprisingly bad i could say. On the other hand, I can say that it happened the same to the tytn2 and then some camera software updates made it better. lets hope it will be the case here as well...
[Touch HD General] troxter:
Yes, the camera in hd is terrible... My very, very old nokia 6280 2MP taking a better photos (and videos) than HTC touch HD.
[Touch HD General] p3ngwin:
the TOUCH HD can not record video @VGA resultion as far as i understand the specs.

where do you find the setting, and could you post a pic of the setting on your HD and maybe a sample video uploaded to a file host (NOT youtube) like MEDIAFIRE.COM so we can run the original file on our PC's to see the exact video you have?

I'm using a Poco X4 Pro 5G and whenever I try to install a custom rom like ArrowOS or PixelExperience, I can't completely register my fingerprint to my device for security. I know it is not the hardware as the fingerprint sensor works on stock MIUI and Xiaomi.EU, both on MIUI 13.0.4.0.

Also to note, I am in Asia and my phone is the Global variant of the Poco X4 Pro 5G.
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] Davidtop10:
So you can just revert from a custom ROM to the stock ROM?
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] bobisthere:
Same here. Works on MIUI but can't register fingerprint in custom ROMs. No idea why. Currently on pixel experience plus.
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] Ritik17:
Apparently, if you switch your SELinux to permissive it fixes the problem, that's what I've seen for other users. Try using a magisk module to switch your SELinux mode.
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] hoseth0711:
Thanks so much. It finally works!
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] bobisthere:
What module did you use?

Aren't there risks associated with permissive mode?
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] TNTS:
Thanks Ritik17 for the tip, that definitely worked!

To change SELinux from Enforcing to Permissive, here's what I did:

1. Root device. (By changing Magisk.apk to Magisk.zip then flashing through ADB sideload)

2. Install Terminal application from Play Store.

3. Typed "su" then allowed root access through Magisk.

4. Typed "getenforce" to get the SELinux status (in this case it reported "Enforcing")

5. Typed "setenforce 0" then pressed enter to switch SELinux to Permissive.

6. Typed "exit" to exit out of the root interface.

Afterwards, the fingerprint registration worked!

EDIT: The above steps, while allowing for fingerprint registration, basically makes it so that safetynet checks will always fail. Applying the safetynet fix makes it such that the fingerprints get deleted every after reboot.

EDIT 2: I noticed that while the lockscreen recognizes the fingerprints saved, the phone acts as if there are not biometric sensors enabled. My apps can't detect that I have enrolled fingerprints.
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] Ritik17:
Try using Zygisk, Denylist and Magiskhide to pass the safetynet, you have to add Google Play services and Play protect (Enable "Show system apps" from 3 dot menu at the top right corner).

You can also use Cygisk, it's a Magisk alternative with some features built-in that were removed from Magisk.

The work is being done, eventually the problem will be resolved completely. If you want to help out then provide logs after using your fingerprint sensor to unlock the device. Reboot the device before recording logs so it's clean.

Hi,

I have just tried to update WM5 to WM6 on my SPV C600 and stuck at bootloader. I did everything step by step. After I had turned on bootloader(tree colours) I used Teratermpro then installed ROMUpdateUtility.exe, but instead turning on, phone backed to bootloader. What is going on? What do I have to do with it?
[HTC Tornado] MietasSR:
Install first WM6GSMUPDATE, then your favourite ROM.

PL: Witam rodaka ;)

I did so with no effect. I have upgraded WM5 to WM6 a lot of times and never got problem like that. I'd like to state it is nothing related with wrong USB connection or something like that.

[Samsung Galaxy A71 Questions & Answers] m3110w:
Samsung A71, OneUI 5, Android 13. In the past few weeks my screen becomes a washed out green for a little while (I can still see the screen, icons, text, etc). Then I have to turn down or turn off the Eye Comfort Shield (ECS). That seems to make the problem go away. Then later on I turn the ECS back on. Then, about 10 days later, it happened again, the screen became washed out with green color. I then turned off the ECS and it went away.

It seems this issue started soon after I got updated to OneUI 5 and Android 13.

I like keeping the ECS on and don’t like turning it off. How to fix this? Anyone else have this issue?

Need any other details?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KMFM$:
OK. For some reason I'm having problems with this kitchen. Every cocked ROM fails to stay up. When I get it going, the splash screen comes up and just hangs. Though, weird thing is, it doesn't even make it to splash screen when my wife is nearby or when it's cold outside. Normally it would just hang there, but anytime either of those instances occur, it's like a turtle in it's shell.

So, does anybody want to trade a Kaiser with a successfully flashed Android cocked ROM for a Kaiser with a regular flashed ROM?

EDIT - Travito, do you have the source for the latest release? Also, does the latest source just pop right up? Or, does it just hang there? If it hangs, is it longer than normal? Finally, does it work in the cold?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] WillardZ:
I heard that cocked ROMs are screwed up.:eek:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
For me to be sure, you need to open a console window and input "import -verbose window impot.jpg" and select the affected area with your pointstick. make sure the console window is small enough that it doesn't obscure the view so that the community can size up the problem properly.

Also let it be noted that most devices, especially those with cocked ROMs do not perform well in the cold. And in some cases, it can actually cause your RAM to shrink, as well as it can hinder the free movement of the device's ball bearings.

What version of HardSPL are you running?

Also, please ensure that your wife knows how to properly turn on and init the OS after you **** your rom. That may let you finally init runlevel 5 and get the X server started.

There is also always CialOS.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KMFM$:
Thanks for the info, Travito. I figured that part of the problem was that the RAM was shrinking. I'll try to get a pic up soon, but I don't know if it will stay up long enough to get a pic.

I will definitely look into CialOS, as my device frequently encounters the cold. Hopefully, the CialOS interface is more straight forward and intuitive. My wife currently has trouble handling the device the way it is, so a more intuitive interface would be easier for her to swallow.

Finally, do you know if the device needs to be HardSPL'd before using CialOS? I didn't think it did, but I'm not too sure.

Is any one else having similar problems with the new cocked ROMs?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
Installing CialOS actually makes subsequent installations of HardSPL easier.
