I been trying to take pictures of homework from textbooks but can never get it clear enough to be able to read the letters. Am I doing something wrong or is it because of the camera? And I tried the macro setting too . Any help? Thanks

Are you using the document setting in the scenes function? You have to not be too close, do half press on shutter to focus before you take it. Hope it helps!
[XPERIA X10 General] hibiskus:
hey guys was watching your images, they are really nice. Can few you of you post some night or indorr pictures, regardless of quality, i am close to buying X10 so just wanna check camera in low light conditions.

Thx!
[XPERIA X10 General] somevietguy:

Thanks! :)

Well, I am really a beginner myself in this area, as I have never had such a nice camera in the phone before. What I simply do is that I usualy take several pics of the same target, with different settings. Once I get home and upload the pictures on the computer, you can really se the differences between the pictures. That's pretty much what I do, play around with the settings on the camera and keep the pictures that I believe are the best :)

well here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2k8KkvLEkY

After trying out the app the whole night I realised it just takes low rez photos even though it says they are hd... I'm so annoyed by this(its a paid app) that I'm going to make my own... as soon as I get through the android sdk tutorial :p
[XPERIA X10 General] w0mb4t:
have you done these pictures with antishake enabled or disabled?
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Lol.. the reason it shook at the end is because of the app.. I couldn't find any antishake option.. my guess is that it took the pic while focusing.. because no one even moved the phone until I woke up and stopped it

Anyway I tried it again, didn't shake this time (moved a bit in the middle because i dropped the phone for one of the pics :p)

I'm beginning to dislike this app.. its called time-lapse.. anyone know a better app?

Well here is my attempt: Came out much better than with the other crappy app... remember to watch in 1080p

And the reason its shaky in between is because, well its a phone and not a camera, so I kept getting calls in between and so didn't end up putting the phone back in exactly the same position.

Towards the end I just gave up and put it in airplane mode :)

SE camera app applies too much compression?

I've been rather unimpressed with the images from the X10 camera. I like to use my phone camera to capture workshop outputs for my job and need to be able to zoom in to read handwriting on post-its etc: The SE camera app doesn't allow this.

At first I thought it was simply due to poor autofocus but, since I installed Vignette, it appears it's actually due to image compression. Vignette allows the setting of image quality (low,normal,fine,superfine) as well as size (8MP etc), and, if I put both of these settings on maximum, the quality of images at high zoom levels is much better than with the SE app.

Anyone else notice this?

I much prefer the UI of the SE app but the images it provides are not up to scratch.

I'll suppose I'll just have to wait until Android 2.2 for SE to improve the camera app ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] bongd:
This is the primary reason why people have purchased Vignette. I have for this reason too, but I don't like how I can't easily adjust the contrast like with the SE app. I actually like the SE interface a lot more but Vinette is more powerful.

I hope that SE changes this with their next update.
[XPERIA X10 General] lornova:
I agree, SE interface is much better! However the real reason to get Vignette is its "steady shot" function that uses the accelerometer to detect movement. I got very steady pictures in low light with it.
[XPERIA X10 General] mingleberry:
Just tried out Steady Shot - jeez my hands are shaky!

It must be the excitement at the imminent 2.1 release or something :rolleyes::p

Hey guys, just wondering, what's the limit on the number of pictures that you can take with the lens before it stops working? I mean... I've already done a number of timelapses with my x10, so something like 5000 pictures already. Just wondering if its going to give out say, after 20k or something? (the hardware, not the software obviously :) )

Here's an interesting picture I took of a wall in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
[XPERIA X10 General] zamt:
This is my one.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Err... wasn't aware that cameras had limits... someone tell my Nikon that.

Anyway, it should be perfectly fine. If your camera does die out soon, you're still covered, so you don't need to worry. And if it does after a year passes, you'll probably want the newest phone anyway.
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Well I was told that by a friend who's into photography, so I just assumed.. anyway good to know... I'm just addicted to TimeLapses :) And they come out so well with the X10 (for an amateur)
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Yeah, there's a one year warranty from Sony Ericsson, so you're fine if the camera dies out. It should be covered no problem.
[XPERIA X10 General] lildic:
how to use TimeLapses??someone plz help me
[XPERIA X10 General] digitall1982:
here is just one tip for taking better pics (in low light especially);

just use touch focus instead of shutter button because is't too stiff and when pressing it you always make some tiny move with phone and ruin the pic (get blur).

and also turn off image stabilisation coz it make pic worse!

just set to touchfocus, hold your phone in landscape with two hands steady as you can, place you thumb slightly on screen and keep it there for a while until pic is saved, do not move hands and thumb from screen until is all finished and ready for next shot. that's it

i will upload some great low light samples when catch some time
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Go on the Market and search for "Timelapse" and download an app.

I don't have a suggestion, but maybe the people who have done them can post which apps they've used.

I've said this earlier in the thread...

CLEAN YOUR LENSES.

Half of those photos would look ten times better if you just give your lens a wipe with a soft cloth or a t-shirt. The lens may look clean to you, but it DOES make a difference!
[XPERIA X10 General] mingleberry:
I'll give that a try although I'm finding the Vignette app excellent for this purpose as you can set the JPG compression to Superfine (the main prob with the SE camera app is heavy compression) and also use the steady shot feature to minimize camera shake (uses the accelerometer to gauge when the camera's steady).

i have searched this forum for days now, and didn't find an answer. hopefully someone can help me here.

I have flashed my HD2 with the NRGZ rom. In the screenshots in the thread u see a nice bottom bar with the windows logo oin the left corner. After flashing i don't have this bottom bar. So is it possible to find a cab where this skin is available? or do i have to choose a different theme in my today options?

the differce is windows mobile 6.5 and 6.5.3.

I just received a replacement dINC because I was having several issues with my original phone. I've noticed that my replacement has a terrible volume capacity. I turn it all the way up and it's still quiet. My original phone was so loud when I would receive calls and notifications. Is there a possibility that a speaker could be blown? Anyone else experiencing these issues?
[Droid Incredible General] Bern612:
I have the one from release and i think mine is blown also. But mine isn't low it sounds garbled. take the back cover off and see if yours has a little screen over the speaker spot. It should be right above the magnet

While glancing around at Milestone forums, I saw this: http://code.google.com/p/milestone-overclock/

On the front page it says: (bold is really all you need to read :p)

We have a phone with an OMAP3, so it may even work out of the box. Otherwise, it looks like it'd take a knowledgeable person to get it running, but we got plenty of those anyway! <3 :)

Root is required of course, but from articles I've read, it looks like root should come? This could be very cool! :)

E-FUSE

sorry guys but from what i read in the general tab of the forums and from a couple other resources it sounds like it is very unlikely that we will ever see custom kerns. on the droid x because of the hardware e-fuse that is in place on the phone in combination with the boot loader being locked down tighter than a virgin on prom night because if you "trip the fuse" the phone will hardware brick meaning a new piece of hardware will need to be installed by moto in order for the phone to become operational again and we all know flashing custom kerns. void your manf. war. so it seems like moto has made this phone to much of a liability to even dev for SAD DAYS i wanted one so bad so ill wait and see if the fuse gets cracked (xbox 360 I know way different just my light at the end of the tunnel) GL DEVS AND THANKS IN ADVANCED FOR ALL THE WORK YOUR ABOUT TO DO
[Droid X General] x.v_:
Uhm... you didn't read the site... we need root and only root for this particular method of overclocking. Not NAND access.
[Droid X General] coolbho3000:
I don't think it should be too difficult to port the Milestone Overclock project to the Droid X (they've done brilliant work, by the way :D). At the least, changing the address we provide to the module, and at the most, doing a bit more reverse engineering.

Either way, if a straight port is not possible, adjusting the current method will almost certainly work. The whole point of a LKM is to extend or modify an existing kernel without the need to reflash it. We just need root.

I wish I could convince people to just refuse to buy phones with locked bootloaders. Ideally, everyone would buy Nexus Ones in vast numbers and force manufacturers to make fastboot oem unlock a standard.
[Droid X General] NKT:
Original Moto Droid has the same "eFuse", aka M-Shield. All OMAP's have it:

http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wt...lateId=6123&navigationId=12316&contentId=4629

Now, the locked bootloader is another issue. But that should only affect loading of custom ROM's.
[Droid X General] grndnpnd:
sure i did it says it changes info in the kern so couldnt that trip the efuse because we dont know if it will look at proc frequency when you boot so if you where to change the values in the stock kern then in theroey there is a good chance that it could trip the fuse im no dev just seems like common sense
[Droid X General] NKT:
I wonder who's going to be the first person to try?
[Droid X General] coolbho3000:
No........
[Droid X General] x.v_:
No, you're just wrong. I don't know what I'm talking about here, but you said in exact words: "it is very unlikely that we will ever see custom kerns". This is NOT a custom kernel. Secondly, I really doubt the eFuse is live monitoring the variables (I assume that's what it changes?) in the kernel (assuming it does infact change variables w/ in the kernel). Nothing of Motorola's would be overwritten with this (I think). I can't imagine the eFuse really does that much, if anything (which is coming to arise). Maybe someone else can shed some light on this, because like I said, I'm purely guessing. :p

EDIT: Whoa, SetCPU maker above me??? Hi. :)
[Droid X General] joshnichols189:
I'm pretty sure you do need a custom kernel to overclock the only reason its possible on the Droid stock kernel is that the kernel on the Droid is rated at 600mhz stock but UNDERCLOCKED to 550 mhz. So we could overclock the stock one since it was already possible, just underclocked

Not according to the Milestone Google code page...

If its off I click to switch it on in Comms manager, the timer spins round and then stops and just sits asking it you want to switch back on the WiFi. Retry and its the same. Phone still functions correctly. This happen at my home network and work place network.

Soft reset will bring it back up sometimes but not always

Format SD Aps2SD & Paid Apps

Hi,

Sometimes its the simple things that you just can not find an answer too.

Paid Apps remain paid for on Market linked to you Gmail Account log in, so once you set up an account on any rom they will show as PURCHASED under the DOWNLOAD tab and can be reinstalled by clicking on, Easy - I have noticed on some they automatically download and install - not too sure what conditions need be m et for this to work but when I went from Setrom 3.3 to Defrost 2.0 then onto Setrom 3.5 Defrost did not re-install but somehow Setrom 3.5 did - full wipe each time. Odd Now I gone back to Defrost 2.0d and again this morning to Setrom 3.5 - no auto install ?? Oh Well

As for partitioning, back all things up and use Rom Manager to partition card, defiantly the easiest way.

You must of course have rooted your phone 1st, check guide on forum.

Good Luck
[Desire General] MintyDuck:
Sound advice , thankyou.

Only issue with Rom manager it returns an error everytime when i try to partition it.

I'll search about I'm picking up loads for just reading threads.

I have come from the apple world and I'm happy to say the phone is much better. :)
