Remove them from the white list in the registry or uninstal the sensor app as stated earlier in the thread. There are 3 threads on where and how to edit the whitelist.

Alright now that the connection setup issues are fixed(that was a big one for me) let's focus on the smaller bugs..

On the Settings Tab, when you click on "Data" or "Sound", the text is white on white and you can't read anything.

On the Weather Tab, when you click on "5-day", beneath the forecast is glitchy. It displays "Last updated" and then no time, or it displays how long ago it was updated but does not display "Last Updated"

The Music Tab picks up ALL audio files on the device including files in the Windows Folder and does not just search the Storage card like it used to do.(this takes forever... Screen times out and causes a lot of lag in Manila) - This is my biggest concern

Otherwise the ROM is ROCK SOLID. I haven't had any major issues at all with this new ROM since I first flashed the fixed version this morning.

If it's at-all possible to fix those 3 small bugs and maybe offer a "hot-fix" cab file on the thread then that would do the trick.

Once again arupp good work. Now that I'm all set up it's time to run SPB Backup - Full Backup(can't ever be too prepared for that day you install something that doesn't play nice...)

Exactly what I'm seeing with the new radio and ROM...picks up GPS in less than 10 seconds..battery drains VERY quickly.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] aruppenthal:
1.Mines Fine?????

2. Im not sure it ever did. Now ima have to flash an older rom to see :p

3. Noted and agreed that is annoying. Even though I use s2p and coreplayer.

I think all of these bugs will be gone in 5.1 ;) but ill see if we can get a hotfix going for at least some of it.

LMAO

Shouldnt be a problem

1. Thats not fixable its a limitation of send mapping

2. Ill try to make a cab. IDK if it will work. Might break PIE since it wont read the mui

3 I think I have a plan :) as promised I will work on it .

I seem to have fixed my GPS problems. For whatever reason I had the file system cache enabled under performances in advanced config and had it set at 8mb. I remembered from the very first ROM I flashed on my Fuze that when the file system cache was enabled and set at a high value I was unable to obtain a GPS lock. I disabled it performed a soft reset and now I am getting a lock in approximately 10-15 seconds. This ROM rocks!

GPS Lock with AGPs

I enable my AGPs yesterday and holly sh*t. I get a GPS lock within 5-10 seconds from a SR. The one thing I always found an issue is getting a GPS lock while driving on highway. It always took 5-15 minutes and sometime never until I stop for a few minutes. Now with AGPs enable and this ROM I am getting a lock with 1-2 minutes max after a SR. I am still using the latest BS radio .16 and the RIL cab. I have no reason to use another radio right now because I am very happy with this one. I know there is a new Ralphael radio .19 but I will stick with the BS radio until further notice. There are a couple of issues with turning AGPs on: 1. my data speed is as fast as when it is off, 2. The GPS lag is more relevant. Other than that it is a pretty good deal. I think someone else might have mentioned enabling AGPs early on, but I thought it was worthwhile mentioning again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] lpsi2000:
To keep simple and to provide a clear answer to everyone asking this same question. The benefits are in the hands of the beholder. Keep in mind we have a lot users that are using the stock ROMs and pretty happy with it. Most Chefs here provide information about the ROM including builds, version of apps, and etc... You and only you will have to be the judge of how various ROMs will be more beneficial to you. If you are a flash junky, you will flash everything under sun just because you can do it or you can help yourself. If you are like me, you will flash the ones that peek your interest and keep the ones that are in your opinion day to day ready (after all you do want something you can use during normal hours, days, weeks, months). For me 4.5SE, 4.6BETA, 4.6F 4F2, 5 are all day to day ready. Different ROM and builds always bring new things to the table, to me some are good and others are bad. However that may not be the case for others here.

Hey guys..been using the Touch HD for a few days now and whenever i take a pic the pic is a bit blurry even after auto focus... and the pictures also lack much brightness even though i bumped up the settings a bit.. also i cant fugure out at what lvl i should keep the sharpness, contrast n brightness too.... so any1 with a good camera comfig plz tell us what settings u are using so we can get some decent pics (of even pages filled with text)!!:o help plz
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Try the following:

Increase Quality of Photos

To increase the quality of photos, open the Camera, go to Settings, Advanced, then Image Properties. Increase Contrast to 5, Saturation to 5, and Sharpness to 4. Now you will have better definition and much more realistic colours. Also don't forget to choose Super Fine under Quality in Advanced Settings menu.

Reduce Blurriness in Photos

To focus better, have shutter set just to Touch. After you have touched you have the whole three seconds to steady your hand and take a non-blurry photo.

Activate Hidden Photo Modes HD Tweak can also be used for this

You can activate hidden photo modes using the 'HD Tweak' app. Make sure to leave the resolutions for these modes at 1 megapixel though or they may not work properly. For for the more advanced users, use the following reg entries:

To enable Burst mode

Mobile Device\HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P6

set "Enable" on "1"

To enable Sports mode:

Mobile Device\HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P8

set "Enable" on "1"

To enable Video Share mode:

Mobile Device\HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P9

set "Enable" on "1"

To enable GPS Photo mode:

Mobile Device\HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P10

set "Enable" on "1"

Get True 5 Mega pixel Resolution When Using Camera

To get 5MP instead of 4MP resolution when using your camera, you must switch off Widescreen mode in the 'Advanced' Menu.

Normal screen = 2592 x 1944 pixels = 5,038,848 pixels = 5MP

Widescreen = 2592 x 1552 pixels = 4,022,784 pixels = 4MP

Get Better Video Quality When Using Camera

Use MPEG format instead of H.263 for better quality video output. This option can be found by going to the Advanced Setting from the Video Settings menu. Once there, go to Capture Format and change format if necessary.

Hope this helps

thanx alot
[Touch HD General] arfster:
There's nothing can be done for indoor shots, the camera unit is simply rubbish. The only way to cope is to be ultra steady, during the approx 1/4 second it takes for it to take the picture.

Outdoors shots are fine though.
[Touch HD General] sephiroth_vg:
I tried 3mp, widescreen, n timer settings to 2-3 seconds...the shrpnes contrast all to defalut and the quality to fine (super fine is more noise) and then wen i take pic..its completely in focus n not over colored....u try that...i tried ur settings but still crappy pics (Nokia N73 takes better pics at 3 Mp..)
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
But be brutally honest I was very disappointed with the camera.

Outdoors

It's not bad taking pictures of scenery & buildings

Indoors

Very poor quality

Movement

Been trying to take pics of my baby son, but the wee bugger won't sit still, so pictures are crap!!

HTC have got to start improving there camera in line with other manufacturers. Generally I find them a step or 2 behind
[Touch HD General] Feromon:
Flash built in it? Are you sure? Where?

Maybe Adobe Flash Plugin ;)
[Touch HD General] arfster:
That's to be expected - on a sensor this size 3mp will always take better pics than 5mp.
[Touch HD General] sephiroth_vg:
well just now tried 5 Mp mode as well.... works sometimes...other times doesnt.. totally zzzz scene...and taking indoor pics + poor light = forget it...it wont shoot a decent pic no matter what settings i choose...u got to have a SOURCE of LIGHT IN the roon ( bulb or tube lights .. else dnt even bother taking the camera out.. so im not so dissapointed with the camera (4/10)
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
How can you give a score of 4/10 and not be disappointed unless your expectations where already very low?
[Touch HD General] dgattenb:
mmm

I have taken a few pics with the " new settings " ( found around the forum plus these )

And found that it has increased the camrera very well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

out of 10 ....??

7/10 ( no flash or anti shake )

[Touch HD General] sephiroth_vg:
ur best bet is to turn the auto focus...or try sport mode
[Touch HD General] KukurikU:
flash yr HD with latest ROM from dutty. you'll be amazed by the difference.

it seems that HTC really patched it in the latest ROMs!:D

here uy have an example: a snapshot of my pc screen under fluorescent light (worse conditions). is it really so bad for a PPC camera?
[Touch HD General] elmarko99:
image is still very noisy. try taking a pic of a something else indoors. not your computer screen.
[Touch HD General] KukurikU:
i did it intentionally. i wanted to prove a point. i know that i can take outdoors pics better than this one. i already did it. the most important thing is not to forget that the camera on any PPC is only an add-on and its use should never go beyond occasionally "i forgot my camera home" moments. if somebody wants good pics.... buy a dedicated camera!! do not have high expectations from an "accessory".

my HD is first a c o m u n i c a t i o n device and second a personal digital assistant (PDA). this are the only fields i am very "choosy". if somebody will sell me such a device without a camera....fine with me!
[Touch HD General] dazza9075:
and how do you turn off the auto focus?

touch focus setting makes little to no difference and it still tries to focus after the shutter key is pressed.
[Touch HD General] dazza9075:
oh and yes it is a bit much to expect this to compare to anything like a dedicated camera, but i have an old XDA II and even when set to the same settings the old XDA camera is significantly faster. they have ramped up the Mega Pixcels slapped in auto focus but still overall its vastly outguned by a device several years older (in pictures where there is clear motion)

dont get me wrong in still shots outside its very good, moving shots or low light and it is rubbish.
[Touch HD General] tnyynt:
HD's and Diamond's camera are a real improvement over let's say HTC's worse camera, the one on Trinity for instance. Nevertheless, I find the HD camera more than enough for on the go pictures. We need to device on what we want: an mp3 player with a phone or a camera with a phone? I'm being a bit sarcastic here but first of all, let's not forget that it's a Pocket PC. Try shooting some pics with your PC's integrated webcam. Oh, ****ty quality, huh? For higher expectations, get a compact camera. For even higher, get a dSLR.

But, we have a camera on a PDA. Yes we do, but that's not the H/W part the accent is on! Sure you say, there's Nokia's and God know what maker's phone that makes better pictures. Well, cameras cost too, so the costs would be even higher with a high end camera bundled.

Conclusion: I was unhappy with let's say Trinity's camera, but took it as a fact and brought my dedicated camera when I knew I'd be needing something to snap pics with. I'm quite happy with the camera on Diamond and HD though, but those will never replace, not even close, my dSLR.

As for settings, back to topic, there's not pretty much to play with: make sure you set quality settings to max, install the Official patch which improves low light condition pictures and experiment with Saturation, Contrast and Sharpness.

By the way, saw someone being unhappy with low light condition pictures, getting blurry. YES! It's pure photography: aperture and time. Low light conditions need longer times, in which of course your hand will shake or the subject will move. Photographers use a tripod. Try it! ;)
[Touch HD General] dazza9075:
The quality is great, bump up the sharpness a notch, i didnt like the over saturated pictures that came about from notching up brightness, saturation and gamma, so left those at 3 and it is very good. but my XDA, XDAII XDAIIi and XDA Orbit all had significantly improved "shutter" speeds that is the unfortunate thing about this HD and my impressions are they gained marketing points for Auto-focus and we lost the ability to shoot moving pictures at a highish res.

Lighting has always been bad on all HTC device my only worthy suggestion is to stop the device messing about with auto light and set it up yourself, the constant flickering between modes must slow the thing down.
[Touch HD General] cimmerii:
hi I'm new to the forum. where can i find this "official patch" cause I've looked at the official htc homepage and didn't find anything that would do the ting u said it will. can u post a link to the patch maybe?

and i have an other question! i compared the picture quality with samsung omnia and the omnia takes much better photos indoors (without flash) than my htc touch hd, but the omnia has more settings than the touch hd.

is it possible to make a program that gives the touch hd users more settings on the camera? like ISO and stuff?
[Touch HD General] sephiroth_vg:
go search forums.. im sure i saw a tweak to turn the auto focus off...

Best Camera Settings for Z3

I've found these to be the best settings IMHO:

Mode: Manual

Resolution: 15.5MP

Focus Mode: Touch focus

ISO: 200

Metering: Face (or Spot)

Everything else is Off. Manual comes out better than Auto (I've done comparisons). On a standalone Sony camera however, Superior Mode is better than Standard Mode.

[General Topics] aldur:
i dont think this is real multitouch- just seems to remember the first pressed location and notices when pressure is gone
[General Topics] freaksey:
its not really multitouch.

i worked on a simular project (not a game, just tried to do something like virtual multitouch)

and its just like that.

example:

you press on the left and on the right side of our screen, wm thinks you were pressing just in the middle of both sides.

like this (X is your finger, O is the position where windows mobil thinks where your finger really is)

X-----O-----X

or

X----------

-----O-----

----------X

so i think this guy just made "invisible buttons" which you click when you press und 2 of his buttons at the same time.

of course this is just speculation because i cant test it, but that would be the easiest way.
[General Topics] lpaso:
Yep I think it's how it works... But it's not a dumb idea at all, and could be used in the dev of apps ;)
[General Topics] Marshall07:
I agree with you.

This "trick" can simulate a multitouch but only with single clicks. I'm afraid that you can't simulate gestures such as the "iPhone-like" zoom.

Marshall
[General Topics] pbv302:
Yeah, I realize it isn’t "real" multitouch to, but I also think this could be useful for a lot of cool apps on WM.:)
[General Topics] Marshall07:
I was making some experiments and I noticed that it is really hard, if not impossible, to make it work with 3 simultaneous pressures.

Like freaksey said, pressing in 2 different points of the screen will make the OS think we are pressing in a point in the middle. But introducing a third point will not be detected if the point is in the same line.

Here is what I mean:

X----X----X (3 points)

X---------X (2 points)

X----O----X (What the OS thinks in both situations)

So I'm afraid that we can't make applications like "piano".

Marshall
[General Topics] lpaso:
Indeed, not like a piano, but for tiny games (like the nokia guy made) it could be fun ;)
[General Topics] Marshall07:
Of course ;)
