i just made a discovery and was wondering anyone else who has the same programs can check this out....

i am running damage control latest and the kernal modified for damage control for the novatek panels..so i get about 44 to 46 fps consistently now. HOWEVER when i use the stock camera application it behaves exactly the same as it used too before the fps kernal, basically in low light the frame-rate drops to something less than 19fps (19fps is about what the human eye can distinguish as "movement without blurring or choppiness") and the camcorder works the same way, so even though the camcorder is supposed to be recording at 24fps, in low light it really isnt. i bought the app "vignette" and its a neat camera app that has a bunch of really cool filters, well anyway BEFORE the new kernal it basically behaved the exact same way as the stock camera app, it would get blurry and choppy in low light situations (fps would drop below 19) however something interesting happed AFTER i installed the kernal! the vignette app actually performed better than the default camera app, it seems that vignette actually didnt drop below 19 fps as even in a very low light situation i could move the camera around and the picture wouldn't blur or get choppy. so this leads me to conclude that

1. something is holding back performance of the stock camera and camcorder that the fps kernal doesnt fix (which was already known)

and most importantly 2. it seems that maybe third party apps are NOT affected by whatever is holding back the stock camera!

so my theory is that if there is a third party app for video recording perhaps we can get proper fps video recording in low light situations....!!!!

I made a video showing the differences with my flip mino HD and its currently uploading to youtube i will edit the post with the youtube video once its done.

but if anyone else has a the modified fps kernal and can test this please let us know what you find. if you have vignette then try vignette if you have another third party camera app then try that. perhaps by comparing the code between the two apps we can see what might be holding back the performance of the stock camera.

EDIT for video

Very interesting discovery... I hope you are on to something here. Thanks

i just tried taking the cam with vignette... gorgeous!

what third party app uses the video camera? i want to test that out too.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 111Kestrel:
If so, can you explain how you did it because I haven't been able to figure it out yet. By the way, I've already tried all of the standard methods explained here on the forums.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 111Kestrel:
I figured it out!

In Dinkn's glassy icons the facebook file name is: Start_Icon_HTC_facebook.png. This file resides in the windows folder. When you change the icon lt doesn't create a facebook.bmg in the cash. The solution is to make a copy of the original file, rename it to facebook.png and past it to the folder of your choice. Now when you use one of the icon changing programs to change the icon it will create the bmg file in the cash and the new icon will show in the quicklinks menu--sweet :-)

I read some threads here about not charging, but my situation is different and all stuff mentioned in elder posts do not help me.

So the problem is: some days ago I was fishing and my phone got some water. I kept it in warm place, it turned on normally, but I can not charge it anymore. Orange light is on (so phone says it is charging), but charger light stays blue only for some secs, after it turns green (saying it does not charge the phone). Tried wall charger, usb and even car charger. All the same...

Maybe some of you already had this problem?

Thanks

I have a HTC Touch Pro2 running Windows Mobile 6.5, and every time i exit something the clock that is on the home screen keeps on changing back an hour and then forward an hour to the normal time.

Why is it doing this??? HELP!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
Welcome to the forums!

Believe it or not, that's a feature of HTC Sense.

Download a cab from here to disable it. I'm thinking (if you are using a stock ROM), you'll need the Sense 2.1 WVGA cab.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] samylines:
Not sure which ROM you are using, but I am using Energy ROM; the one listed in my signature.

I can disable the clock excessive animation as follows :

Start -> Tools -> CHT Editor -> Miscellaneous settings -> and then enable "Disable double flip" and "Disable minute flip" under "Flip Clock" option.

Hi everybody, i have a very big problem :(

I bought a HTC Touch 2. Very cool phone, works fine, looks great BUT... when i want to change the SMS or MMS ringtone to my own, it doesn't work... no sound, no vibration...

I try it: send an SMS from an other mobile, and it doesnt work. I get my sms, but the phone dont alert me (no music, no vibr.) another problem is: i choose the: sound and vibr options, BUT when i save this and go back the menu, the phone change automatically to ONLY VIBR... but it doesnt work too... (U know: settings, sound, and the bottom (alert sound, not the special) and new message -> vibr on-off. its only appear when i set an own ringtone)

If i choose a basic ringtoone, its fine, dont change automatically to only vibr, i can change it to every option, BUT it doesnt alert me too...

summa summarum: SMS-MMS-Email alerts doesn't work on my mobile. No music, No vibr.

HARD RESET done: doesn't help :(

I hope somebody can help me.

Love 'n' Peace

(And sorry my very bad english )
[Touch2 General] Bucsek:
Pls help me, im afraid that my mobile is faulty :(

everthing is okay, only the ringtone is bad.

Incoming call works fine with my own ringtone.
[Touch2 General] Bucsek:
Nobody? :(
[Touch2 General] donSjon:
have you tried different mp3's?
[Touch2 General] Bucsek:
I tried everything, its doesnt work. No sound, no vibration...

only incoming call is okay
[Touch2 General] donSjon:
sorry, I was wrong, I didn't read correctly.

I think SMS sound only works with .WAV files.

have you tried this?
[Touch2 General] Bucsek:
Well i dont know what the basic sound format, but i think they are wav. And the other problem is, my phone dont vibration, and is set on. :( (Its only SMS)

So i don't know when i received an SMS, only the Green LED lights on the top
[Touch2 General] donSjon:
I haven't heard of this prob before.

have you logged a call with HTC?
[Touch2 General] Bucsek:
No, i think there isn't Hungarian HTC corporations., so i think i go back to my service and i hope they solve my problem..

but thanks a lot.
[HD2 General] coolbeer1990:
i have been using my htc hd2 since 3 months now ... installed various custom roms , many of them ...edited the registry ...installed so many tweaks ...reduced senstivity , even tried the android desire keyboard ..by booting android ...but the KEYBOARD is so inaccurate ...its so pathetic ...i have used htc desire ,nexus one , HD mini, and many other phones but the keyboard is very accuarate ...i even tried resco keyboard, all other additional keyboards ..even calibrated my screen ...but i think that there is some fault with the HD2 touchscreen ! :( ....any other solutions ????
[HD2 General] polo735:
You must have a defective handset because all keyboards work perfectly on my HD2.
[HD2 General] coolbeer1990:
R u 100% sure ? ...because i have heard at various places in the forum that the keyboard has some of its own defects due to super senstivity of the touch screen !
[HD2 General] Sheikmans:
I have no problems at all with my keyboard, and my fingers are not tiny. I haven't installed anything to improve the accuracy of the keyboard.
[HD2 General] coolbeer1990:
omg ...thts bad ..very bad ! i will have to get it replaced under warranty then
[HD2 General] polo735:
I can only speak for my own experience, but yes I'm sure. I don't have any problem with it and I quite like the sensitivity of the touchscreen.

Maybe you could use Swype keyboard? I also frequently upgrade with Energy's latest roms.
[HD2 General] coolbeer1990:
even i update to the latest energy rom ....currenty i am on the 8th july builld ....according to the replies it seems that the only way is to replace the handset
[HD2 General] dbh369:
Try screen calibration

There is a tweek in the sticky to enable the screen calibration routine in settings (normally not visible), you might be able to fix it. My experience was that the cal seemed slightly left and down (or my finger was slightly right and up;-) and this fixed it.
[HD2 General] vatk:
I have changed 4 hd2's and i have passed from the most android handsets in the wild.

I'm back to hd2 (guess what, i hated galaxy s' plasticky construction and desire's small and difficult to read characters -due to pentile technology- screen).

So after six months since i sold my last hd2, now it's the only one device that i can type as accurate as i want.

A major reason that i have left hd2 the last time was exactly what you mention.

Typing inaccuracy.

But now, i am not sure if it has to do with better hardware or the evolution of the latest custom roms (i have installed energys gtx themed rom, day one) but the handset listen to my taps much much better (almost as a desire and a little bit behind the excellent in that area galaxy s)...
[HD2 General] Marct77:
Typing accuracy is improved if you turn off the vibration feedback

on the keyboard and sound in the dialler
[HD2 General] coolbeer1990:
there is no way to disable vibration feedback on the energy rom ???? if u know can u temme ?? :(

It better not be like this when I pick it up Sunday.........
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
wow. i really have to wonder what he did to make it look like that.

When losing reception, phones don't go 100%-0% in a split second.

I bet he's just going for ratings after the whole iPhone mess.

Also, i can assure you that it doesn't matter how you hold it, even if you bury it in your hands from all sides, there's no catastrophic signal loss.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Deuser:
Mine has that problem. Full signal. Hold on the phone down the bottom and it drops down to 1 or 2 bars. As soon as you let go of the bottom, back up to full bars.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
Signal loss when covering the antenna area is not a "problem", it's the laws of physics at work.

1 bar is totally reasonable, and depending on signal quality, 2 as well.

But going 100%-0%... that's pure BS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Evans_Prophet:
I think this appears only when in 3G mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcharng:
The VDO might not be telling the whole truth. From a user point of view, I have never seen signal dropped drastically like that.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rkantos:
I think it would still appear in GSM -mode, but the signal drop is nowhere near the amount when using UMTS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tachikoma_kun:
Mine does it as well, in 2G and 3G, drops from -111dBm to 0dBm
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hassan:
My blackberry bold 9700 lose some signal when i cover the bottom. Every phone lose some signals when cover the bottom.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] coldlazymo:
i can confrim this also happens with my Samsung Galaxy s aswell, and to those who say this is normal and happens to every phone, then you are wrong, i have a bunch of old nokias and NONE of them lose signal no matter where you hold it. the phones i tried it on are, the e71, 5800, the 6220 classic and the 6630. none of these phones loses any signal when gripped from anywhere. im so disappointed in this phone now :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mickeko:
Yes they do. It's physically impossible to make an antenna that doesn't lose signal when covered. You can code the bars to show the signalstrength any way you like though. If I code the bars to show 4 bars 1-20% and a fifth at 20%-100% you'll very rarely see less than "full" signal.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hassan:
Nokia is always been the best when it comes to reception quality. Am happy with my GS signal quality.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] coldlazymo:
i tested those phones, i covered them up entirely with my hands, and there was no signal loss. it stayed at 5 bars. and its not a matter of coding since even with one bar i get good call quality.

but as Hassan said, nokia have always been very good with reception quality. and maybe i am overreacting since this is the first time i have come across this, having had all nokias before and this is my first samsung/android phone. but that doesnt really mean its acceptable, i cant get a decent signal when i hold my phone, at first i thought it was the network, since this was a different network than i was with before, but now that i have tested it and this happens, i cant help but feel like i have been screwed over a bit. going from 3-4 bars when not holding the phone to it dropping to 0 is not something i like in a phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
btw, it's best to know the difference between "no bars" and "no reception".

In contrast to most phones on the market, no bars at all means you have minimal reception.

It is still possible to make calls like this.

When there's absolutely no reception, you'll see a circle with a crossout line.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mickeko:
Ok, now read this carefully: Just because the bars don't go down doesn't mean you don't have any signal loss. You get signal loss on ALL phones when covering the antenna. You having 5 bars doesn't change that, it only tells us that the signal loss isn't severe enough to show on the display. That IS a matter of coding.

Obviously there's ALSO a quality difference. Depending on what transmitter/receiver is being used, the quality, location and size of the antenna and whatever will affect the quality of the signal. Some hardware have less signal loss than other when being covered, but fact is the signal loss is ALWAYS there regardless of the number of bars Nokia, Samsung, Apple or Anheuser-Busch brewery decide to show for whatever signal strength.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rkantos:
You can kill your data connection by covering the antenna on the GS...

Try with the speedtest app. Especially upload _WILL_ be killed proper, when the antenna is covered.

I put some standard kitchen aluminium foil:D between the phone and the backcover, It still drops bars, but uploading works a lot better.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] coldlazymo:
its fine, i take it back now anyway, turns out i was right the first time, it is just the network. i lose bars even when the phone is sitting on a desk. and when i say lose bars, i mean the bars will actually fluctuate randomly, from having full bars to no bars, then back again, when the phone is in a stationary position on a table, near a window. it just happened to be coincidence that when i was testing it the timing was close enough for me to blame it on this. my apologies
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Connoisseur76:
Why is it most of the reception issues are in the US? I don't hear anything for Iphone 4 users in Japan and I'm using Galaxy S in Singapore, no drop calls, no drop signals blah blah. I think it is the network not the phone!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
Oh noes, the world has come to an end, flee for your lives.....:confused:

If you are seriously disappointed that a phone made by imperfect people is not "perfect", then plz just return it and don't come back to this forum.

Unless you are getting dropped/crappy calls all the time, then wtf are you people complaining about? This forum is full of whiners.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
Not as much whiners as hysterical people.

I can understand it a bit, since this isn't exactly a cheap phone, and is supposed to be one of the best (if not THE best) devices around.

The thing is that every time a POSSIBLE issue pops up, everyone start going crazy like "OH MY GOD IT'S 100% A PROBLEM THE PHONE IS NOT OK GET ME A DOCTOR"

Instead of, let's say, inspecting the matter rationally, and seeing if there's really a problem.

The Galaxy S has an almost full plastic body. There's no way it could share the iPhone's antenna problem, since the antenna is not exposed to our hands.

That video looks like an attempt to pull attention, for whatever reason. The only way i manage to replicate his results is by putting tinfoil on the back of my hand (which kind of leads me to think- we don't see the back of his hand even once in the video, nor there is sound, so possible raffling cannot be heared)

And even then, the results are not as drastic.

Everyone should calm a bit down and enjoy the device instead of inspecting it under a microscope for problems.

If a problem that affects your use somehow (e.g GPS, lags) appears, THEN do the complaining.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] esiemi:
Nokia WERE the best for reception quality untill they released N97.

BTW my old N97 used to do this, when hold it would lose signal by at least 3-4 bars, but not every phone does this, my milestone wouldnt lose signal no matter how i hold it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ollie2:
As per my thread yesterday mine does the same as that video, I'm on T-Mobile in the UK. It happens when at home where the coverage is average and I pick the phone up from my desk or do as they are in the video and hold the phone by the top and then hold it at the bottom.

I find the bars drop from 3 or 4 to 0 and then often come back a couple of seconds later to 1.

I also have an HTC Desire and doing the same thing with this doesn't have the same effect.

After doing a number of tests between the two it looks like although the signal bars plummet on the Galaxy S the phone still keeps service for as long as the Desire does.

It also happens on 2G although not quite as much as on 3G.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] heygrl:
Its really a nonissue. Calls and data work fine ar zero bars or -0dBm. Something is just off here.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] LadFromWales85:
Reception display is broken on Galaxy S

I have had the phone showing zero bars, and -0dBm, yet to the caller I wasn't breaking up at all, and I could hear the caller fine. I have also had similar displays when using data on the phone, or when it's just sitting there.

I have yet to make my SGS go out of signal, whereas my Nexus One would lose signal all the time, and my HTC Magic would lose signal occasionally at work.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] voodoochild2008:
Tried and tested o2 in UK, I drop 1-2 bars, tried with orange and its just 1, does not stop or slow downloads and from my past phones I have to say I am very happy with it and G5 is a step forward into getting this phone acting the way it should, yep the future is bright :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gadjet0:
Well I have to say that I notice a lot of movement on the signal strength with this phone, I never had the problem with my previous phone but that was an Iphone 3G though so I suppose that wasn't telling the truth anyway!:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DrBarrell:
I get precisely the same signal that I got on my 3G, in fact it often manages to get 3G in places that my 3G couldn't.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Intratech:
Bull****, I just tried it and didn't lose any bars.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wongja:
in fact the signal bar does always drop alot suddenly.

But how you hold your sgs did nothing on it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Maroon Mushroom:
Sorry, I wasn't trying to troll you guys by posting the video, it was a genuine concern of mine. I guess I'll have to find out for myself when I get it...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Silverdragondk:
When testing the GPS(which BTW I found to be very friggin accurate) I went from full bars to zero bars, then it shot up to full bars again at the exact moment the GPS locked on to my position. Found it very interesting, kinda like a countdown.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] EarlZ:
I think its not just a phone issue but also how great the signal strength your provider/area has.. I've had several nokia phones and none of them would drop to that kind of singal level when held, even my samsung wave does not lose a single bar when calling while i have the entire device covered..there is a signal loss but not enough to drop even 1 bar from full
