3. NOW i deleted this app and I want my original camera app back , but it DOES NOT launch from the hardware button anymore !!!!!

how can i fix this ? how can i get the original camera app run from the hardware button ?? :confused::confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] m4rioo:
is it possible to install this app on wm 6.5 ? or is there any app which will allow me to record in 720dpi on wm 6.5 etc... ?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] hjhjhj:
you mapped the button to shcam, no you need to remap the hardware button to the old camera app....i think sergey has an xap to remap the old camera app back.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] mumtaz64:
Thanks for the mango update :) will try it and report as soon as i can :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] MartyLK:
How do you install xaps? I have Mango on my HD2 and want to install apps but can't find how to do it. I thought I had it figured out one time when I found a program that installs on my PC where you click an xap to make the program load it onto the phone, but it kept crashing whenever I tried to use it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] mapleleafs89:
How can I install this? Do I need to have a developer unlocked phone?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Archeronx:
any 720p problem?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Skateout:
Sorry if I won't read 36 pages but I did my research. What I have to say that this app was not working for me. The picture taking is harder, 720p is laggy. The only + I can add is that I can save my settings. Thats all that this app has in good category for me.

Don't kill me, I gave it more than one shot. I tried it with different WP7 versions even with the Mango.

But Mango can save the settings for me so... :) What can I say. I hope it gets better.

Don't give up Dev, we are here to support you and give you feedback. Well this is mine.

BTW I have an HTC HD2. Just for the record, even it can be obvious :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] amno1970:
I've found a bug.

When I turn WP7 background white in theme menu, buttons are not correctly displayed.

For future versions...;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] mirabear:
Hi, nice work, I like this more than default WP7 camera.

But it seems that I can't save picture or video sometimes in mango 7720.68.

Hope there will be update to fix this.

The picture is much better than default camera.

Thanks.

Auto focus appears to be broken with the mango beta 1 update. Focus works when switching to video but loses focus when switching back.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] magdan83:
Hi,

First let me thank you for your work.

However I can not see any difference between the photo taken with hd2 wp7.5 internal app and SHCam app.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] rsweb1993:
Ive installed the app and it works fine, apart from one bit. The preview image seems to be upside down? Am I just being a bit noobish and have forgotten to do something? Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] abogdan:
I installed this app on WP7 HD2O 1.23b1 and it works. It is the only way to have auto focus in my configuration.

Thank you!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
Seems like there is still some activity around my app :) If so - I will probably do some changes - at least will add normal Mango compatibility (e.g. will rebuild it with latest SDK).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Fmstrat:
I'm sure this would be much appreciated by the community, including me. :)

Thanks,

Ben

Actually, one other thing I've noticed lately. The camera has a tendency to "flip", or not recognize the orientation of the phone. Seems to have started with Mango.

Thanks,

Ben
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] siem123:
Works like a charm, thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
As promised - 0.6.3 with real Mango support.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] go2mp:
hi

BIG Thanks for your work :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] ikovac:
Thanks for this app. Nice work.

Light theme in windows phone makes most of this app buttons invisible (because they are white on white)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
Yep - I just dont have dark icons :) The person who created them for me only did light ones...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] itman00:
Thank you for this very good job. It works very good.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] bash18:
Can some one upload pics using normal cam and this app? so we can compare :P

thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Robbie P:
would it be possible to modify an LED flashlight app to run in the background while the camera is being used? This might help with the green tint issue.

And now that mango is running a form of concurrency it seems easier to modify a flashlight app than to try to change HTC drivers.

Any thoughts?

edit; or could you disable flash altogether in your app and enable the LED to be constantly on from within SHCamera app, (or switched on automatically in low light)? As suggested by dazza9075 here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19975047&postcount=457

Giving me a NullReference error
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] vipgemini:
That's great app but i can't find it in marketplace...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] JanGun:
This app did nothing for me. Pictures are still same quality as with original camera app.

Anybody?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
you are using

same camera

with different apps - it is actually normal that pictures have same quality

it is not in marketplace and will never be there - it will not pass microsoft policies
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] lzacharyjw:
i love this app... but question... i don't know if someone has already asked, but is there a way for it to automatically save the pictures without having to save each one individually after you take them... sorry if this has been asked before. but if there's a setting i haven't found it yet or where they'd be saved automatically :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Fmstrat:
I don't have this installed right now, but I could have sworn if you swipe to the right or left (whichever one is options) there is a toggle labeled autosave.

Thanks,

Ben
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] lzacharyjw:
Yep just found it, thank you, i don't know how i missed that one lol.... i was really tired when i was looking at the app though.. but thank you that helped :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Hagenlund:
What's the point of this app if it doesn't fix the green tint?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
Autofocus - thing that was totally missing in the first HD2 WP7 ROM from DFT (exactly when I created the app :) ). Now when we have a newest Yuki ROM - it is a bit obsolete, still some people are using it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] yugoport:
and its still rocking for a lot of users:) thanks Sergey for your work and for sharing it with us..

are you thinking in updating it? like enable the new settings available in the new roms like contrast saturation and white balance? setting right white balance almost eliminates green tint..

thanks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] KILLAH_42:
i used sh camera app but it doesn't helped me so much. for me the stock camera worked better because sometime the pics weren't saved or the camera was a little bit laggy(with sh cam)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] yugoport:
Edit: Not working in bttf ROM after install sp1 cab, pictures aren't saved..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] joyqing:
very good, hopes shutter sound on/off switch in next version.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] muraridhanu:
Thanks its working ,nice job
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Lord Raque:
Yeah!

Great work, thats' what in my opinion was missing.

For one of the next updates it would be nice to have a option to set the Name parameters! On my phone the Picture name is something like "b1cd8449-e8cf-4e1d-946a-7a38d814569e.jpg" if autosave is activated!

Thanks a lot for this app!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] jemaho:
Thanks you for this, I was planning to go back to WM 6.5 just because of the cam problems and you just made my day.

To Thank you, I've repacked the xap with 2 new icons, hope you will like them

THANKS
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] dazza9075:
Nice one mate, did a grand job there, hope you keep up the good work. not far off replacing the whole default camera application, is it just me or cant we take full wide screen shots at the mo?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] ace29:
fabulous app!!! thank you

still it works for me.

is it possible to change the hardware button from standard camera app to this?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
4:3 resolution is what WP7 does - for now there is no way to take a picture with 16:9.

About hardware buttons - I'm not sure it is possible - mircosoft gives no access to them, and there is no way to create a shortcut... The only thing dev could access is a back button (but only when application is running).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Hologos:
I think the only way to access this APP by HW button is to cook it into WP7Rom. So if you add some functions I think it will be cooked into it.. ;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] jeong840:
Thanks

Very well working :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] dazza9075:
just looking at teh MS cert program, you know i dont think you fall foul of any of that, from what i can tell, you could very well get this published and make a bit of cash. Perhaps if in the future you have Location aware geotagging or whatever you might need some opt-in/out settings but other than that it maybe worth a go.

Forget hardware buttons just now, afterall we never had them in the first place, what you have is fin, bit of a UI change and all will be ok, just thinking from a marketplace point of view, its worth considering but not if you attempt to leaver hardware buttons in.

shame about the 16x9, is that what the HD7 does?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
I'd post it in a Marketplace - but it will not pass a validation (probably) - because there is no official way to access photo camera, what I do is a workaround. But - will see...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Tanmay®:
Autofocus doesn't seem to be working? When I try to take a picture of some text i.e. Macro Mode it doesn't focus?

Apart from that it seems to be working great!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] 5pteron:
Thank you! It works great!

Could you disable the shutter sound in the next version if possible?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] dazza9075:
not sure there is a macro mode, but anyway, it seems to autofocus to me, you can see it come out of focus then come back in again before taking shots, in low light it has issues as it seems to focus before the flash comes on

Well, i just read the whole thing and from what i can see it doesnt say anything about that so long as you dont compramise teh "security" of market place or phone, perhaps thats where they could get you but it wouldnt hurt to try
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Mahone7:
Is there anyway to release the source code please?

Thanks in Advance :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
Hi Sergey,

I just tested. Works great. I was waiting for this.

The pictures with flash still looks a little little bit greenish. But much less than with the original app. Or is that my imagination?

I would also love the option to silence the shutter.

And it seems to save portrait pictures as landscape. If I'm right the request of course would be if that could be changed.

And one last thing: in the same light conditions the picture with flash is darker than without flash. (???)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
shutter sound generated by system automatically - I'm searching for a way to avoid it...

Focus fully depends on a camera driver - I cannot do more that it allow. And there is not much in API - so yes there could be some issues with it.

This also could be driver issues - because flash is a bit slow in this ROM. I have and idea how to change it - if it works I will add it in the app.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] brockyneo:
hi guys im new to win phone 7 does this app replace the default one and soes it have everything the original does:o also is new version out today
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
It does not replace the original. Installs next to it. Original has problems with focus and flash. This one does not have these issues.

New version today, I don't know (ask Sergey), but looking forward to it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] DannyBiker:
Ok I'm an Android user who want to try WP7 again so sorry If this has been mentionned already...

...couldn't it be possible like yugoport said to have a predefined white balance setting to activate at night to cancel the green tint issue ?

Or if not possible : how about an app to adjust it afterwards but still on the phone ? I know there's a Photoshop plug-in for that but if you want to share an image on the go, it's not very useful.

Thanks ! :p
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
I will check it - still cannot promise anything... Some of the other apps are not working as well (TouchXplorer) so this might be difficult to fix.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] gianvito:
i've tested it on samsung omnia W, and pictures aren't saved in landscape XD it say "the system cannot find the file specified", this only when i take a picture in landscape

edit: sometimes also in potrait mode
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
New version is ready - just wait a bit :) It will be out today.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] brockyneo:
hi thanks does it take pics as good as android :o
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
Hi Sergey, looks good. You're working hard.

Just found a bug. If you click pictures you go to your catalogue. Fine. But then when you click the back button you get: "Vallue can not be null. Parameter name: streamSourse" and the app closes.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
thanks, fixed - new version will be in the 1st post in a few sec.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
Great.

Few issues though with video: there is no indication that the recording is going on and the image is very poor and the sound noissy.

I know this is work in progress, so I don't complain. It's a great job already.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
Indication will be added in future releases.

About image and sound quality - this is what we have :( This could be fixed only on a ROM level...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
Alright.

Your bug fix was not completely right.

I did put settings to highest res and autosave.

Now when I take a picture it gets blown off: 0x803a008a

EDIT: sorry, my fault, still on USB. After disconnection, no problem.

But there is another bug:

I take a picture. Go to pictures. Open the last taken picture. Go to camera: "The handle is invalid." After OK the app closes.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
Image of the video in the original Camera app is much better?!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
cannot reproduce - please describe your action with more details :)

you can change resolurion - by default it is 128x96
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
Sorry, didn't realise about the video resolution. Fixed.

About the bug: I take a picture. I slide to the right and click pictures. I go to camera roll and open the last taken picture. Then I slide to the left to the camera pane again and press the camera image to take another picture: "The handle is invalid." (Same with video)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
got it - it is a known problem (I added it into 1st post) - to avoid this you need to switch to video and back... I will fix it in a next release.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Aandi87:
Vibration

Hey Sergey,

vibration for most button presses is not the badest idea, but its not so well, when you take a video an you zoom in or out the phone vibrates and so i'm not able to hold my vibrating phone steady for a good video. And the virbratingsound in the video while zooming is also not sooooooo good. ;)

Perhaps you add an option to disable the vibration for the user.

Great app so far and i'm looking forward to your future versions!

Greetings
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
Yes - there will be a on/off for vibration.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] arkatis:
I didn't read the whole thread but have you guys noticed something????

Video for me has auto focus when i am trying to lets say shoot some text or whatever,

with camera is different; auto focus will enable after you press the button to take a shot! Hmmm.. this is wrong! Please look at this problem! Thanks for the app and your time!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
yes - I know about this... will try to figure something out in the next releases. still - focus is important when you are taking a picture(which is how it works now) - and not when you just looking through camera.

So - that's it for this week - 0.4.2 is attached.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] BsB|oVeR:
thanks a lot for this app man you're the man!!! and thanks a lot for looking into the above issue. one more thing. is it possible to open the pictures you've taken from the pictures app itself instead of importing the pictures into SHCamera app? this will may enable options such as the delete option instead of exiting the SHCamera app and go into the Picture app to delete those pics that are not good?

Anyway, this is a great app man!!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
will try to figure something out... still - I will add delete button - so you will be able to delete a picture without going to camera roll.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] ilijan:
right side roatation not working correct its still have mirror efeck....

the shutter sound is much earlier than the picture or the flash light take the picture... maybe its the problem with flashlights... or if you have installed from htc marketplace the flashlight tool you can see the hd2 have 2 leds but just one working properly... hd7 have 2 led too but maybe we have wrong timeing...or something els
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
yep - this is just a system default behaviour. maybe I will fix it in further releases.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] PedrooNL:
0.4.2 good step forward.

Flash is still green, but that you know. Seems to relate to flash being late.

Furthermore the portrait pictures are stored as landscape. In the original app this issue is not there. Should be possible to solve.

But again: great job till now.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] akbisw:
Luv it so far. Good to know theres hope. Sometimes that all u need.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] genesis123:
Once this gets advanced enough would it be possible to replace the default camera application with this one in a custom build?

Also could you publish this to the market? I wouldn't think Microsoft would reject this and it would allow for easier updates.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] checkeredhat:
Just tried to reopen this app. Downloaded it yesterday and it worked great. But now I got a pop up that said this app was rejected by MSFT and to uninstall. Why would this happen? :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] NeoGreendawg:
It's a known problem with one of the versions of the chevron certificates that's floating around on the forum. So try and find the one that isn't limited to 10 installs or whatever, reinstall the cert and start over...

... and search next time !!!:p
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] jaka.erc:
What about some settings to correct our pictures? Sharpness, saturation, brightness? That would be great. The original pictures aren't so great. :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
This could be done via post processing of taken jpg file (cause camera doesnt has such options)... This is possible - but dont expect it to happen soon :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] BrumBrum74:
Installed app ok, but doesn't seem to take any pictures. Press the Camera icon to take pictures, and it looks like taking pictures, but nothing shows up in the camera pictures on the phone.

Great App :) Thank you!! :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Sergey_H:
