prehaps that phone had acceloremeter?

but no matter what, as long as you're still in camera mode(assuming you're still using front camera), and not viewing a picture, to which angle you turn your phone to, you'll still see yourself upright!

now now, but if you were to

take

a photo at which ever angle you specified at, and were to view it in landscape mode(90 degree normal view) you would see the picture NOT upright. it would appear at whatever degree you held your camera/phone at just now.
[XPERIA X1 General] c_legaspi:
yeah i know it doesnt have an accelerometer. my reasoning is screwed but im just trying to see where i am going wrong.

i do know if that i do take a picture, it will be upside down or what ever way i had the camera. i just cant grasp my reasoning at the moment.
[XPERIA X1 General] skycamefalling:
OMG,

can you PLEASE take a video of yourself starring into your phone and wondering why on the display you are not hanging from the ceiling :D
[XPERIA X1 General] artesea:
......................
[XPERIA X1 General] Dr.Sid:
There actually is a reason.

Xperia uses MIRRORED image when using front camera. Front camera acts like mirror .. you rise your right hand .. and the person on the picture will rise his left hand .. which is now on the right side.

But that is not how normally cameras work. Normally you would see your correct, not mirrored picture. If you rise your right hand, the person on the picture will too raise his right hand .. which is on the left side.

Also when you turn both normal camera & display 45 degrees .. the picture will turn 90 degrees compared to the subject. This can be really distracting and confusing when holding the device with both camera and display in your hands. And that is, I believe, the reason why Xperia (and some other similar device, I don't doubt) uses mirrored image. With that the angles does not add, but subtract .. and it acts just like a mirror.

If you have notebook with front camera, I suggest you experiment with it. Most probably the mirrored picture will not be the default, but there will be option to try it too.

If you still don't get it, take some written text, put it in front of you .. and use Xperia with front camera to read the text on the screen .. the use the second phone.

This thread is hilarious :D.
[XPERIA X1 General] c_legaspi:
it not hilarious yet but it is starting to be.
[XPERIA X1 General] fards:
lol highly amusing thread..

when you take a pic the aspect doesnt change, just where you are in it.

when the x1 is held portrait you fill the aspect, when held in landscape you dont.

this isnt a trick of the x1 its just elementary physics :D

think about when you take the photo in portrait it fills the screen, in landscape it still fills the screen but you appear to take up less of the space

what happens when you take a pic with keyboard open ?

im tempted to try now but dont want a punch in the ear frok the girl sitting behind me on the bus.. although i would have no objections to having a pic of her on my screen :P

[XPERIA X1 General] maedox:
Priceless. :D
[XPERIA X1 General] Dr.Sid:
Well the post still has it's value. Since some phones do not mirror the picture and yes, the picture really rotate (unlike mirror, unlike xperia).

Actually I have seen this for the first time, but then my experience with devices like this is minor.

[XPERIA X1 General] c_legaspi:
Well i didnt say i have a problem with my phone. im just wondering why my other phone camera (LG CU500) doesnt work like the x1.

some of you instead of bashing, why dont you try and compare it with some other types of phones and maybe youll know what im actually talking about. It might not be the same for all phone, but as i said, im just wondering why the difference.

oh well, i think im just adding more fuel to the fire but thanks to all that have tried to help

[XPERIA X1 General] ChE84:
How do you turn on the front camera ? Lol...
[XPERIA X1 General] c_legaspi:
Dr Sid,

you are correct in the way my two phones act differently. thanks for the explanation.
[XPERIA X1 General] Dr.Sid:
Camera application .. settings .. Down arrow (next settings) .. left upper corner button (icon of camera and film strip) .. camera source .. front.
[XPERIA X1 General] Dr.Sid:
It's interesting problem .. I wonder if videocall applications mirror the picture for you. I mean that small feedback picture of yourself. Unfortunately my provider does not support video calls, so I have never tried. I guess the picture of the caller (or the picture you send to the caller) won't be mirrored because it makes texts unreadable. On the other hand for your own feedback the mirror mode seems to be really useful.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] VeenK:
Hi,

I am moving to Melbourne this Monday and need to get a new SIM and number. Which mobile operator has the best deals on data packages? (Preferably unlimited)

And which company is a good broadband/ISDN Internet Service Provider (ISP) in Melbourne? What are the speeds I can expect?

On a budget here... no company paying for me or anything so...

Thanks,
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tzb2:
Hi VeenK, I don't know where you're coming from but you might get bit of a shock with our telecommunication costs. Our incumbent telco is unfortunately a rip off and this flows down thru other providers :( I would suggest looking at Vodaphone, 3, Optus and then of course the rip off merchant Telstra, in that order of bang for buck. Unlimited is unheard of here.

Once again, as above, other countries have a lot better value for money because of our monopolistic incumbent telco (Telstra).

I personally use and recommend "Internode" www.internode.on.net.

Once you know the address or phone number of where you are going to live start here: http://bc.whirlpool.net.au/ (Whirlpool is the broadband equivalent of what XDA is to PDA's :) )

PM me if you need any help.

Cheers TZB
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tzb2:
Oh, and if you hadn't already guessed, I don't like Telstra lol (either does most of Australia except their shareholders).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] hidden_hunter:
Adding to that, cringepool will give you an idea of what's good for both mobile and fixed data services (you need to filter through the bunch of 14 year old know it alls)

Unlimited data plans as mentioned simply don't exist for mobile or fixed services. I guess it kind of makes sense that it's expensive given there is only 20 million of us on one of the largest countries in the world.

Enjoy your time in our fantastic (and best) city
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Flip.:
I ended up with Optus, I only get 1gig per month but I don't use that much.

As mentioned there's no such thing as unlimited data packages unless you have a Blackbery or a Hiptop(Sidekick).

For about $80 a month I get $300 in calls, unlimited sms/mms, 1 gig of data. That's on a month-month plan so no contract involved.

You need to know the address of where you'll be staying to confirm if you'll get coverage.

I would still be one of those noobs that can't put software on there phone if it wasnt for this forum. Well I have decided to give back to the forum by creating my own site called Touch-Mod.com The hole idea of my site was to make it easy for new "Touch Series" users to have new apps and wallpaper and more for there new phone.

As of right now you can find Wallpapers for the Touch Diamond and Touch HD in the wallpaper but i will add more for more touch series devices later.

Is there a way to delete the preset icons that come with the phone on this tab. 9 of the 18 tabs available are taken up by programs I'll never use or am not even going to install they came with the phone. But when I try to delete them from that tab it shows a padlock by them and it won't let you. I have searched in the phone folders and can't find where they are to delete them.. I'm hoping someone else has already figured this out..

[G1 General] mmafighter077:
I know the android market will start charging next week and I understand some apps have an expiration date on them and eventually they will expire. So this may not work for those apps and I could be totally wrong in my theory.

I'm going to try not updating my apps for a month or so because I fear some of the apps that were meant to be free the developer may decide to start charging and with an update put an expiration date on that app.

I know one app did this already. I forgot the name but it had the planet saturn as the icon and it was meant to be free but the developer decided to start charging and make it a demo version with an update. He got flamed in the comments and eventually took his app down.

Call me cheap but about 90% of the apps I have are not worth paying for but they are nice to have.

PLEASE POST ANY APPS THAT HAS STARTED CHARGING WITH AN UPDATE OR HAS TURNED INTO A TRIAL VERSION WITH AN UPDATE.

NOTE: I HAVE NOT TRIED SOME OF THESE APPS TO CONFIRM THE CHANGE. I AM SIMPLY GOING BASED OFF OF THE POSTS. PLEASE NOTIFY OF CORRECTIONS.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Force Ring (If you still have it keep it. Is not look for stats555's sig.)

SMS Commander (The original app is dead. The developer has put the new app in the market. Dont uninstall the original.)

Park Mark (It was originally updated to a demo and now the words demo have been removed from the description. I don't know if it is a demo or not anymore. Keep pre demo.)

Dog Catcher Beta (If you downloaded it before you had to pay for it... there is no prompt to pay for it yet.)

World Clock (is now a trial version. Keep original don't update)

Advanced Task Manager (Is now gone from the market. You have to pay for the new version.)

Quickoffice (Also gone from the market.)

1 click direction (Is now a paid app. I don't think the new app has any changes except now its $2.99)

[G1 General] topdnbass:
As soon as someone upgrades an app that adds an expiration date, they should mention it here.

Depending on the app though. Some i'd pay for.

Thats a good Idea and Ill try to keep the list updated on the original post. Any app that starts charging or any app that turns in to a trial version with an update we should include.

[G1 General] vr24:
If you have and use the app, it's obviously worth paying for.

The question is, how much is it worth :) If it's something valuable enough to keep on your phone, I'd think 99 cents is more than fair.
[G1 General] MacFloid:
ParkMark & Geodroid

When I was browsing in the Market 12 hours ago I saw 'ParkMark Demo' instead of 'ParkMark'. I read the description and there was told about trail expires on march, 1st. When I read the comments the users were disgusted about paying for such an app.

Now I looked at ParkMark again and its name was switched back to 'ParkMark' and there isn't mentioned anything about "trial" in the description.

So it could be they reconisdered and kept ParkMark free or they hided every information about trial so everybody makes the (hidden trial-) update.

EDIT:

Found this at the developer homepage:

This is also the developer of the Geodroid -App, which also turned to demo.
[G1 General] mmafighter077:
Thats what I was worried about with the apps.

[G1 General] mattcam3:
What is the method of extracting the APK file from my phone for an application that i want to save?
[G1 General] nEx.Software:
As a user, I definitely understand the desire to have all apps be free. But I also know that in order for apps to continue to be developed and improved, there needs to be some sort of motivation to do so. A couple dollars or less is certainly reasonable for good quality apps. As a developer, I can tell you that it takes a lot of time and energy to produce a quality app and there comes a time when it is simply not worth it without some sort of compensation. Remember, developers have lives, families, etc... they don't exist to simply serve the user. That being said, I think that all apps that are already available for free (and are not demo versions) should remain free, and I think most will. At least it's not the Apple App Store, I mean come on all those folks paying for fart machines and other inane apps. I think it's good the Android Market has had some time to get some of those types of apps out of the way for free.

Feel free to download my app, as I will not be charging for it unless I do some major overhaul of new features, which would require me to charge. I don't see that happening, however. Not that I think there is a huge market for my app as it is a specialized tool for a certain industry...
[G1 General] TheDudeOfLife:
I would hope that a 'new' version is created for the pay version, instead of forcing a paid upgrade. That seems like the solution that would encourage payment for additional "new and improved" features.
[G1 General] nEx.Software:
Of course. Besides, the terms of the Market require that to be the case.

What I use is HButton by Ondrej Pavlicek, together with a newer version of Task Manager (usually included in the M2D cabs). If you let HButton handle the "ok" button presses, it will show the Task Manager popup at the upper right corner when you are in the Today screen. The newer Task Manager allows scrolling through the tasks, and if you press the right button in the directional pad, it will close the selected task. Very convenient for me. :D

Its with Alltel btw. When I use the touch flo screen to get to the program window, the one with the buttons. I can only add so many. I found a way to make new buttons with "+" signs, but when I click on the plus it brings me to the program list and when I select a program it doesn't get made into a new button. How do I change this?

On a related note, it won't let me delete the alltel buttons (alltel store, etc). Anyway around this?

Greetings,

Please forgive me if this is a stupid question or the wrong thread.

I am curious about memory allocation in Custom ROMS. I have an ATT Fuze and the Stock ROM stripped of junk had over 200MB of Program memory available. It seems like most of the Custom ROMs on this forum only start with 120MB or so.

It seems like most of the Custom ROMS all focus on the amount of Storage available rather than Program memory. With SD cards being priced so low that they are almost free, why is there more focus on Storage rather than Program memory? The phone cost close to $1,000 but I have an 8GB storage card that cost me $10.

I have migrated from an eTen X500 where I always struggled to find ways to free up program memory. Here it seems like there is no interest in program memory, only storage.

Not being critical, just curious about what I am missing.

Thanks for any advice.
