[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] aoakes:
first, you dont have enough info.. otherwise we'll be guessing until you try everything. i think it has to do with your radio, rom or WiFi cuz i've had that problem then I said i had enough and flashed t mobile's latest Rom, replacing the custom radio, rom and hard spl. it corrected the problem, lol. its like taking taking out three birds with one stone.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ChriGothiMark:
nooo my buddyyy...:(:(:( my hd2 burnssssss
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ChriGothiMark:
damn...i have a big problem... i used task29 to erase the hd2 and istall the leon italian rom but with that download i didn't have to use task ad now i don't have the file of the rom to rename and put into the storage card and istall...but i thought ..i can istall artemis rom and then istall leon rom with the istaller...or the original htc rom...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tudort:
If you have HSPL just download http://www.4shared.com/file/X9gQD6tK/RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1664052_Radio_.html and try it!

P.S.

I don't understand what you are saying. After task29 you just install an officiall rom like the one i posted in the link here ! I keep telling you to put an officiall original ROM onto your device and NOT A CUSTOM ! Artemis,Leon, are all CUSTOM ROMS . You have to put a officiall htc one after task29 ! That should make your device more stable. After you see everything is allright you can proceed with further flashes. Just try !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ChriGothiMark:
yeah but i'm downloading it..but after done with task29 my ppc is empty and how have i to istall the rom???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tudort:
Start the phone by holding down the volume down button and the power button . Keep the volume down key pressed until u see the bootloader menu . Connect to pc . FLASH !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ChriGothiMark:
OMG....i love you guys....you are genies....god bless your mind....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hebbe:
you can also try this: remove your sd-card and check how the battery drain is. in my case, i didn't format the sd-card with the phone's tool...battery performance was very poor.

then i copied all the files of the card to pc, formatted the card inside the phone with the tool provided by htc (an app on your phone), and then copied back the files onto the card.

now, with artemis v18, radio 2.11.50.20 and hspl 1.66, i have the best battery life i've ever had. normal usage (some sms, 30 min. phone call, 1h wifi, 1h 3g surfing, some games...) , and my battery lasts sometimes nearly 2.5 days!
[EVO 4G General] Raadius:
It's very difficult to take any good pictures without them being blurry either. Clearly Sprint didn't see this or brushed it under the rug?
[EVO 4G General] Medic1013:
Try putting some tape over the lens and see if that helps.

[EVO 4G General] torremitsu:
It's noisy because like all lower end digital camera's it automatically adjusts the ISO rating depending on how much light is involved. The less light the more noise.
[EVO 4G General] seriousblack25:
Have u tried focusing b4 taking th picture?
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
You can set the ISO in the options. Also, setting the brightness helps as well.
[EVO 4G General] Geosama:
Isn't the manufacturer HTC and not Sprint? Anywho, with a low end sensor, it's expected to be noisy. And by low end I'm just comparing to Canon's, Nikon's and Sony's sensors. I think we're just a little spoiled by those ultra compact cameras and forget what the phones are really for. But in low-light, you're always going to have a lot of noise (i'm assuming they're low-light shots). All day-time, well-lit shots of mine are actually really nice.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
BTW the Evo is using the same backlit sensor technology as the new iPhone. I think everyone is giving good advice in setting the ISO manually. Even my old 5mp dsl type camera performed poorly at higher ISO.
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
Hey Vandam500! Good to see another former iPhone (well, soon to be. Ordered an EVO last night) user from MR. :p

As for the EVO camera. I've seen some good pictures with it and some noisy ones. I think it's going to all depend on the light you take it in. It's a high megapixel camera with a small sensor.

It's not going to replace my DSLR or even my old PowerShot. It's a camera on a phone and I'm excited to use it. :D
[EVO 4G General] 1wingangel:
Thats actually a produced sound comming from the speaker,you can turn it off in settings.
[EVO 4G General] bockjacob:
Any link on that?
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
Sure. http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g/16437-evo-4g-camera-has-backside-illumination-also.html

Guy provides a link to the tear down where you can see what sensor is used and a link to the sensor manufacturers page with the info on it.

Wrong kind of noise. ;)
[EVO 4G General] Vandam500:
Hey Vividboarder! Nice to see you on here :). I am heading out to "pre-order" a Evo today and will have it tomorrow:D It only took me a hour after using my GF's Evo and also seeing the disappoint that the iPhone 4 is to make this decision :p
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
Either of you post in the Digital Photography section of MR? I frequent that forum as much as this one.
[EVO 4G General] Vandam500:
I post frequently on MR but have never posted in the Photography section.
[EVO 4G General] Vandam500:
Hold on, you are kidding right?:eek::p
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
Haha I'm going to laugh if we all thought by noisy he meant picture noise and not the actual shutter sound, or auto focus sound.
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
That would be hilarious!!

No. Not yet anyway. I recently got a DSLR so I may start. :) I've been a very frequent poster in the iPhone Hacks forum.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
I reread the original post again since I forgot the exact wording. Nope we were right the first time.

Btw going to the link you posted about the sensor showed me the specs I was looking for.

Apple was touting their 5mp being better cuz of pixel size.

Well each pixel in the iphone is 1.75 microns while the ones in the EVO are 1.4 microns. A typical point and shoot is around 2 microns. So cell phone cameras aren't that far off from compacts. Of course a Nikkon D3 for example is 8.3 microns per pixel.
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
With newer smartphones like these, point and shoot cameras are really going to need to do something special to stay relevant. Why spend $400 on a new point and shoot when you could get a phone that does the same and more for half the price?

It would be nice if the EVO had a dedicated camera button though. One of the things that sucks about the iPhone. When something happens I usually never pull out my iPhone, unlock it, find the right page with the Camera app, wait for it to boot and all.

So point and shoots have this and better flashes going for them. Smartphones will probably catch up soon.
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
With the RetroCamera app you can map the shutter to any hardkey (mine is mapped to the volume up). I wonder if anyone would beable to implement this inthe the stock camera app as its the only one i have seen that lets you control ISO and other specific camera settings.
[EVO 4G General] SPENONE:
Wait hold on a sec, is someone really complaining about the shutter noise? Man some people are just never satisfied.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
No noone was, someone misunderstood what the op meant by noise.
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
No. About the image noise. The shutter was likely a joke or misunderstanding.

That's cool. I'll probably use that. What I was referring to was a dedicated camera button that would not only work as a shutter, but launch the camera app. So you just press the button, just like turning on a point and shoot camera, then point and shoot. :)
[EVO 4G General] Geosama:
When I mean sensor, i mean the image sensor. ie: Canon's digic 4, Sony's CCD, HTC's (?-dont know what sensor, probably a generic samsung). We're all somewhat technically saavy here, megapixel doesn't determine image quality but the size of the picture!
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
I know, but this is the next best thing. Unfortunately with RetroCamera you cant take 'normal' pics. If you download it you will see what i mean. I dont understand why Phone manufacturers removed the deidcated camera button. I would love that as well. Its hard to hold the phone still in one hand and click the button on screen when its facing away from you for self shots.
[EVO 4G General] arsmithsr:
The ISO setting is the problem I took some last night compact florescent light in the bedroom ISO set at the thigest setting lots of noise pixxelated just awful then I set the iso at 200 wow huge difference there was no noise at all it was a very good pic. SO I would definitely say manually set the iso and go as low as you can.
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
Yeah, just like on a real camera.
[EVO 4G General] tommy96814:
the incredible and the x10 takes really clear pictures though and they're 8Mp as well. are they the same kind of camera lens?
[EVO 4G General] Jye75:
Just thought I'd chime in... I don't know what the difference is, but the camera on the Palm Pre is one of the best that I've used. I rarely had any bad pictures with that thing, and if they were, it was because it was an action shot blur. I still use my Pre just for pics sometimes.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
The Pre did have quite a good camera, but after using the EVO for a few days I'm going to say the EVO trumps it. I think what the Pre had that the EVO didn't was better programming on the Auto ISO settings and that sort of thing.
[EVO 4G General] Jye75:
Dont' get me wrong, I love the camera on the EVO. Just takes a little more finesse to get great pics. Not a big deal.
[EVO 4G General] Grims:
I thought the pics were pretty good on the EVO, until I looked at them on a high res monitor... they are so noisey it's insane.
[EVO 4G General] Freelancerx:
well as far as camera goes here is one thing to think about....the fact of the matter is, if your going to pixel peep then NO point and shoot camera (or phone for that matter) will produce satisfactory results (im a photographer and all i do is pixel peep) so that is one thing to take into consideration, the way i see it, i will not be printing large from these pictures and the main thing i am doing with them is to downscale them and sending them across the internet to friends and such....i mostly just upload to Facebook, and im sure you know that in Facebook you cant see the full rez image anyway, they downscale the image, this downscaling of the image basically make the picture look much better because you are compressing all the pixels together (technically thats not what happens but for the layman we can say thats what it does). So just take into consideration where your end result will be. As a photographer this is the sort of argument that you a lot of times, its one of the reasons why some people dont understand how a high end nikon can only have 6 megapixels and still be a very widely used camera, most of the people who have those cameras dont need more than 6 megapixels, because their end market is small print publication (internet or magazines). so take into consideration your end market. for example if i know my client wants a small jpg for their website, i can shoot a grainy image at 12 megapixels and when it is downscaled (compressed) to the size they want it (for internet it might even be less than one megapixel) will probably look very very close to something i wouldve shot with no grainyness. (even though if i was really working for a client i would never do that but it is a proper example)

personally i think that images shot at iso 100 on the evo look pretty damn great. although personally i havnt pixel peeped, i just look at my uploads on Facebook. the way everything is so well integrated i can easily shoot something with the camera and have it uploaded to Facebook in seconds....
[EVO 4G General] Jye75:
So, are you recommending ISO 100 on both day and night shots?
[EVO 4G General] Geosama:
With day shots, a lower ISO is recommended, with night/low-light shots, a higher ISO is recommended to compensate for the loss of light. But with ALL cameras, higher ISO = more noise.
[EVO 4G General] bcpk:
Agreed, the Pre camera is super. Especially the refresh rate in the viewfinder, it's instantaneous whereas there is a noticeable lag on my Nexus One by comparison.
[EVO 4G General] Freelancerx:
iso 100 at night ha ha you wouldn't get a non grainy image even with the most expensive DSLR unless your using a tripod. so if you want the best possible image, shoot in iso 100 but at night or in any low light situation your going to need to prop your phone on something so that you dont move it. iso 100 is great for daytime if you are outdoors and the sun is out you should DEFINITELY be using iso 100.
[EVO 4G General] Jye75:
That's what I thought, (remembered from high school photography class back in the early 90's) but Freelancerx didn't make the distinction when he mentioned iso 100, so I thought I'd ask the question. Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
False. It would not be grainy, but it also wouldnt be in focus...

Here is a shot i took during earth hour. Click the thumb for the large.

Exif Info

:

Exposure: 30

Aperture: f/10.0

Focal Length: 18 mm

ISO Speed: 100
[EVO 4G General] Freelancerx:
i dont see how thats relevant to the thread... im happy you can hand hold your camera for 30 seconds and get that level of non blurriness congratulations you win the internetz.

i suppose i shouldve made myself clearer...:rolleyes::rolleyes: by "image" i mean a picture that you would consider a "good" picture. if course you can set your camera to iso 100 and shoot for a 30 seconds exposure (hand holding it) and have it be completely blurred yet have no grain... but that wont create an image that most people would consider "good"
[EVO 4G General] Geosama:
Guys, blurryness and graininess are totally different things. Blurryness has very little to do with ISO. You can have a sharp picture, but still be grainy. Shooting on a tripod with an ISO rating of 1600 for example will give you a sharp pic, but with many little interfering dots of random colors (usually purple and red). But let's stop talking about cameras, HTC Evo 4G BABY! <3
[EVO 4G General] 1wingangel:
Alright, alright, I was quickly skimming through on my break at work.

[EVO 4G General] Raadius:
Wow, didn't know my thread stir up this much lol. Thanks for the idiots on the first and second page to spin my word of 'noise', other than that, I stand by what I say. When I hold my HD2 and Evo 4G in camera mode on the same shot, there is ZERO noise on the HD2 but plenty on my Evo 4G.
[EVO 4G General] newone757:
Ive always experienced noise on HTC phones, and ive owned a bunch, in general their camera quality sucks when not in perfect sunlight, my pre's cam was better, but no comp as a phone to the evo lol
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
And it has been explained. If that's the case, then the HD2, which uses a different OS and therefor different camera application, must have a better auto ISO adjustment.
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
perhaps not specifically this thread, but its relevant to photography and the statement i quoted. do you seriously think i hand held a 30 second exposure? :confused:

wait, there was a contest? I cant believe i won.... first, i would like to thank... :p

I see we are on the same page, but the way you worded it previously was wrong. My apologies for trying to help. :rolleyes:

If I am not mistaken this is a developer's forum.

As that I think it is a great loss Feeyo forced decision not to post again in this forum.

Feeyo must be back.

The reputation of his roms show that he must be here as other developers with lower reputation.

Feeyo think again.

Moderators you must be less critical with developers which the last 2 weeks being developing a rom for all of us.

The competition between developers made us happy with better roms.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paultoan:
Hi all,

First sorry for my English.

Since I upgrade my phone to new radio, and use Sense UI, G-Sensor don't work more. I have flashed some ROMs: Offcial ROM with Sense UI for Magic (Singapore, Euro), custom ROMs such as: 3pei_hero_2.1, CursorSense32A-1.2.6.1, and the current ROM is Smoki 0.6.1. But they get the same problem: G-Sensor do not work.

I have tried clear rotato setting using recovery, and then calibrate G-Sensor, but the result is "Calibration aborted".

It have worked when I use old radio, with a HiAPK ROM. So, I think may be new radio make G-Sensor disable. The current my radio is 6.35.08.29.

Does anyone have a solution for my problem?

Thank you very much.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ATeam-MrT:
try to wipe g-sensor data in recovery. it helped me once....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paultoan:
Thank you for your fast anwser.

I have tried to wipe "rotato setting" in recovery (I use recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2), then calibrate G-Sensor (in Settings -> Sound & Display), but it don't solve my problem.

If my way can't wipe G-sensor data, can you show me how to wipe G-sensor data?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ATeam-MrT:
hm - then it's bad, wipe rotate settings is exactly what i meant

did you already try to (re) wipe everything else, reflash the rom etc.?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paultoan:
I have tried this method: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6519036&postcount=48, but it isn't effect for my problem.

As I say, I have flashed 3 custom ROMs, before flashing a ROM I have wiped: data/factory reset, Dalvik-cache, and rotate settings too.

Once, I have tried to reset all by turning phone off, then press Home + Back + Power, and reset phone, but it is not effect too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mkrle:
You could try what i said in step #1

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6319621&postcount=1

Try to dig up your old akmd files (if you have a nandroid backup). If that fails you can try with mine attached to the post.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paultoan:
Hi, I think you method can help me, but with other akmd file.

My phone have no any akmd file. When I move phone, rotate phone, the Bubble don't move.

When I copy your akmd files to /data/misc, it change a little, but calibrate still aborted.

I see someone talk about rild* files, Do I need these files?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paultoan:
[Problem have solved]

Wow, I have found a solution for my problem.

I have tried to replace akmd with an older version, and it really work for me.

Hello,

is there a way to change/modify the telephone number categories in contacts?

I mean, mobile, home, company and so on?

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
Should be in the registry but I'm not sure where.

Do a keyword search in your registry and you should be able to find it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] steami:
Thanks Bruce, kind as usual.

Actually that was the first thing I did, but I was not able to find any value...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
I did a little reg searching too. Nothing.

One thing, are you talking about Manila Contacts or WM Contacts?

If its Manila, you would have to figure out which Manila files hold this info and modify the Mode9 and Lua files.

If its Windows, I still think it has to be in the registry somewhere.

If I find anything more, I'll post back here.

Sorry.....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] steami:
I am talking about Manila.

Anyway I could not find any reference in the registry (I tried again using both Italian and English terms)

Actually I was thinking about a software that could do the trick (like the weather database changer). I tried several searches here but could not find anything (provided I guessed the right words :) )

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drbgotenks:
I am rooted, and have applied the newest update.zip from flipz (including the radio). I have noticed that time without signal is much higher then my hero when the phone is in the exact same location.

I am sitting at the high 90% range of TWS. All of my calls are coming through fine and I have data. I am assuming this is greatly reducing my battery as the phone searches for a signal. I do not have great service at my location (obviously).

Is it a bad radio on the phone or some other hardware issue? Should I get a replacement phone? I have updated the PRL.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drbgotenks:
I loaded on the old 60650 prl (I think that was the one from the hero), and that doesn't seem to help. My signal strength is around -100 to -104 dBm with both prl's and with both radio's flashed (stock and the update). It was always in the low -90 to -94 on the hero.

Does the evo just have a weaker cell radio?
