HTC Camera 4.11 from Touch... - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

I found a thread somewhere on this but I can't find it now. Is anyone working on porting this to the Wizard. I have an installer and installed it but it come up with "Failed to initialize camera". I know the person who posted this was thinking of giving up on it. This would be the final polish on all the Touch conversions. Just wondering before I start digging around in my registry...

They moved it to the general section of the main forum. The post is dead because it appears to require a diffrent driver and the camera's on the wiz are having issues with getting the right quality setting or something like that. I have gotten it to load and install on wiz from cooking but cant use the single shot camera. It only works with the action deal and will not take full size.

Hmm...perhaps there's a way to combine the interface from 4.11 with the older camera driver. I'm not much of a coder, but it seems that if porting the formerly thought "impossible" TouchFlo was possible, than maybe this is too. I'm hoping to inspire someone much smarter than me to try and tackle this...

I am working on it now and should have it ready sometime next week.

That's awesome. I will be more than happy to beta test...

Hi guys I have got it working on my Prophet Touch rom and there is a oem package for it to located in this thread Here all that needs to be done is change the model name in the rgu file and it should work on Wizard.

In the OEM package did you mean to set the file name as .rgu not .rug?
Also where abouts is the Device ID setting your reffering to in the RGU?

that doesn't work i've tried, i think it's because wizard was a 1.3mp camera and original touch has like a 2.0mp so it fails to initialize or something

that could be the problem I didn't know that but if you change the picture setting within the reg or even maybe inport the regs from camera 3.3

I got it working slightly.
I replaced some of the drivers with the ones from my current camera app. The photo mode wouldnt work but it was happily running and the on screen controls were working nicely.
You probably know more about the camera drivers than me so maybe you would know which drivers to replace but I can confirm it ran although I used the cab method.

Camera Icon in Pictures & Video [Fixed on 08-29-07]

Anyone knows how to add camera button in the windows pictures and video's application and have it set to redirect to the Camera 3.00 application. If yes please let me know Thanks.
Check this Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1470194&postcount=14
or thread #14 :d
i didn't try, but i saw all the packages missed some of camera files, whenever i catch these i will post.
but is this was available on WM 5.0??
I believe that one or both of these files controls that part:
HtcCameraUtility.dll
PicturesExt.dll
Add these to the package/windows directory and give it a try.
This is just going from memory.

edit: ok i got the dlls, i will try them and will report back what is the result.
edit2: it was only missing pictureext.dll from above 2 dlls so I places that in windows, dint work any clue...
I was working on this issue prior to my family emergency. As it sits, I too am still waiting for a fix. I have noticed however that nbd and octavio roms do not have this issue. I was trying to tear them apart to locate the answer, but got nowhere
NBD and Octavoi i believe they use different base rom, I think it has to do with some missing dll, because it worked fine with mattk latest version.
there is a regisry entry that goes with that dll as well.
You should be able to find it but searching for the dll file in the camera package from the faria kitchen.
I think these are the required entries:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D5DA6C41-D942-4a15-A857-70A5F569B64D}]

alright, i will port these reg entries and will let you know if that resolves it or not.
edit: i checked the registery was there, however i ported it again and i made sure i have both dlls in the windows. This fix did not work. i am sure it is missing either a file or a reg key. I have asked theloon about it he mentioned that he fixed it. So if tells me how he fixed it, i will post it here.
I just checked and these reg keys are in my rom. Now my camera button in the pimg.exe aplication does not launch anything. I think i deleted something i shouldnt have. Ill recheck the oem pack though. Ill post the ones that I am getting dups of, I had to replace a few in order to get my codec issue resolved. Hopefully we can squash this like a bug quickly.

theloon: it was a broken camera pack and has been fixed.
he replaced the broken camera pack with good one and he said everything is working as it should be. I will compare which files the old cam pack was missing which caused this error and i will post it back.
Thanks. Here is the new issue with this. I replaced the pack with another pack that I had, and now, my camera icon in the pimg.exe application is gone. LOL. Better to not be there than to not work, thats what i always say.
LMAO thats what happened to me when i used mattk's OEM Camera Pack, it was gone. But then it also caused my camera not to launch properly. If your camera works just upload the OEM pack :d so we can use it, i have included couple of dlls that were missing from OLD. Oh btw I believe Theloon's Beta pack for his beta test that i got is using the faria's camera+streamer. i am not sure i will find out
This one is needed also.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Pictures\Camera\OEM]
"OEMCameraCaptureDLL"="HtcCameraUtility.dll"
---------------------------------------------------
Try the camera package attached to this post to get the icon to appear. The icon will then link to the Microsoft camera application. The registry entries and two dlls i mentioned will make the icon link to the HTC Camera instead.
If this still doesn't work, then you are missing some registry entries in the OEMDrivers rgu that are related to the camera. These can be found from multiple other kitchens.
Camera Icon is there, that reg you mentioned is already there as well. Not working. will try your package and see if it works.
edit: allright guys, i finally got this bug squashed like dead roach LOL. anyways if you used Rev 5.2.5 from Theloon, these were the missing dlls that caused Camera not to launch properly from Pictures & Video. Just download the attached dlls and drop in your windows folder and it should be good :d. Test it out and post the reply for confirmation :d
Note: There are few files that are hidden so you might want to disable hide hidden files from folder options in your windows :d
These are the files you should have when you extract
EmEvrcDec.dll, EmMp4SbrDec.dll, EmQcelpDec.dll, GSMAMRDLL.dll, HTCMPXFlt.dll, IMEngine.dll, jpeg_dec.dll, mp4spvd.dll, qcp_writer.dll
HTCMPXFlt.dll, IMEngine.dll were the only ones i was missing with this specific pack i was trying. After putting these in there, The camera button on pimg.exe loads the one for M$ camera, but now i cannot lauch the Camera 3.0 application

hmm, i am at work as of now, so what i can do is when i get home around 6:30EST, i can include these files in my Camera Pack and will upload it. See if that resolve that error for you. Those files fixed the bug for me, i am using default Camera Pack that came with 5.2.5
thanks boss. this seems to be the last issue im having. The other issue is the Camera application not not interfacing with the MMS software. My solution was to disable the MMS video option for the camera. Im looking forward to seeing your pack uploaded lol.
LOL Nottoosmart, i called up my brother @ home and asked him to email me the Camera Pack and guess what, here it is
Sorry i tried uploading as Attachment it din't upload so i posted it on rapidshare

must be nice to have RS at work. I had to remote to my house to put on my ftp server to download here. Starting to be more work than its worth. LOL

Noticed that Touch Cube is in the REG.. Make It Work?

As i was going through the REG today on the train i noticed that in the touchflow reg settings there is a place to set the touchcube on and off it is set off by default. So this makes me think that the cube from the touch could be run on the Kaiser with minimal effort hell maybe the proper moduals are already in the rom and it just needs to reg setting changed to 1. Can someone chime in on this?
HKLM>Software>OEM>TFLOSettings>EnableCube=0
someone want to change to 1 and softreset and see what happens
Reg Key
Nope does nothing.. did'nt think it would but I was curious
this should be a pretty easy port since we probably have the same touch.dll as the HTC Touch(Elf) is there anyone that would be interested in something like this? does anyone know if someone has tried this for the Kaiser yet?

I tried the touch alpha cab still gets the intermittent black screen now and then so i just un-install it, this was one of main purpose of getting the kaiser but i'm sure this will get figured out soon.

Before I had an MDA Vario I and had no trouble installing the cube on that device...
No special touch screen required I guess...
But the cube can't be installed from a simple cab file and since we can't flash custom ROMs yet I think we'll have to wait...

Just out of curiosity:
Why do you need to flash the rom anyway?
The cube is probably some dll loaded by WM6 shell, so if you could find out what dll it is, and register it on another system it should work?
Well at least that's what i would do under windows, don't know that much about ppc's...

It's not dependant on the screen driver or anything, so any wm5/6 device that can rotate it's screen should trigger it.

It crashes for you? Any error messages, like even a .net error or anything? So far it's only been tested on HTC Apache (6700) with .net Compact Framework 2.0 and 3.5, and I believe someone is running it successfully on the Mogul too. If you could post any errors I can see if I can take care of them.

Will 'Touch Settings' Program from Elf work for Polaris?

Is the 'Touch Settings' program a posible alternative for changing which programs are called up by the Videos and the Music button within the cube or is it specific to the Elf?

I'd really like to use CorePlayer for Videos, etc.

Nope, I tried it (all versions) and it won't even install - I get the "the program doesn't have sufficient system permissions" error message. Maybe someone will modify this app for the polaris - it seems like it would be useful since HHC doesn't customize the cube and this does.
** Bump **
I'm another Polaris user (well, it's on pre-order at the moment). This 'Touch Settings' program sounds like exactly what I was hoping to be able to use.
Is there any chance the program can be adapted to work on the Polaris? Can anyone hazard a guess from psargent's "the program doesn't have sufficient system permissions" when installing error message as to what the problem might be since I realise that it isn't reasonable to expect people like the author of this program to have every device at their disposal but if possible fixes can be suggested then maybe it can be fixed "blind"? I for one would be more than happy to validate any possible fixed version on a real device.

Mine is on pre-order as well, and I would love to see this....

I have posted a few different times to Carlos in the "Elf" forum regarding this topic. Unfortunately he has not responded. It would be nice to use this program versus making the neccessary adjustments to the registry manually. Just a note that permissions error I also received when trying to load to my Touch.
*Bump*
This would be great on the TC. I have found a few registry settings that look easy to change (for the 6 icon side), but a complete program would be better. It would be nice to have the media hub customized as well.

Hi all,
I´ve got a German Orbit 2 aka TC and as far as I can see it doesen´t work. After installing all necessary files manually (due to rights-limitations) I can start the programm, but it doesen´t recognize my MediaMinihub. I can change the Phoo/Video/Music cube-side, but that´s it.
Maybe its because I got a German ROM...?
sorry for that.

Hi, I'm the author of Touch Settings and I would be very happy to work with the community to get it working on the Polaris.
The CAB install error you're getting is v interesting. Steps to take to try and cure this problem are:
1. The device may be app locked, you need to download a program called Device Security Manager, then with your Polaris connected to Activesync, disable all the security:
Look at this web page for more info.
2. Also, try installing the sdcerts if possible (again, see above web page)
3. Check Free Storage memory; lack of this can cause the problem.
Please can somebody try all the above with the NEW VERSION 2.22 OF TOUCH SETTINGS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556&goto=newpost)
If it doesn't work, I will upload a ZIP file of the individual files and we can try a manual installation.
Best

PS: I don't know an awful lot about security certs and device provisioning, so if any other developers can point me to a way of making the CAB install on the Polaris, please do.

- Is the device app locked in some way: are the security certificates restrictive?
Look at THIS WEB PAGE: http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2007/05/30/all-about-application-locked.aspx
...download the Device Security Manager, dock your Polaris and disable all the security.

Sorry to hear you've had problems. If you hard reset your device, your cube should revert to normal. If you are unwilling to hard reset your device, then if somebody could post a registry dump from a Polaris (clean, hard reset device) then I can post a fix CAB for you!

It works
Thanks Carlos, the 2.22pre version works very nice on my Couise.
I have only question:
If I try to change APLauncher layout I get a mesage "It seems that your HTC Touch Software is not recent....", but I can change the apps grid. What the message exactly means? There is any newer HTC Touch Cube version than what is on Cruise installed?

*** Secure Box Released *** 6-09-2010***

Greets All,
I am pleased to announce that I am releasing a Proper Secure Box! I know most will say whats proper about it. Very simple, this is activated using the MUI file that is not from the Korean Rom!
Cookers read below for information that could be of use to you and if you need help ready will and able.
Secure Box for ToMoUS Rom 2.13 (And possibly all English roms)
This was something that took time to get it right and functioning correctly. There is ONLY 2 Reg Entries that activate Secure Box, plus the activation of Secure box in the MUI file.
Reg Entries to Activate Secure Box:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Jataayu\Messaging]
"MessageServiceComponents"=dword:000005FE
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging]
"HTCDevice"=dword:00000001
The reason why some got Secure Box to work and some didnt, is cause these two keys are the main keys HD2 and TP2 look for. The MUI file needs to be edited to include the missing menus and ID entries, which are located in 3 sections of the MUI file. If Cookers would like more information please feel free to let me know, will provide the info.
I can do this to any rom version as my guess is for the HD2 Rom 1.66 and up, and for the TP 2 2.07.401 All languages.
To know if the ROM you have is capable of Secure Box, Cookers and Users need to look for at least one xml file: HTCMessaging_Client_PasswordManagement.xml.
If this file exists you can have secure box on your phone. (Non-HTC devices unknown).
Okay some instructions: MUST be installed on device. (Added in 6/09/2010)
Make sure HTC Messaging is NOT running or it will not install. As a failsafe turn sense OFF, shouldnt have to but better safe then sorry.
Import the reg entry in the Secure Box Setting zip file into your registry, then take the .0409 mui file and copy it to your windows folder using Total Commander. Soft Reset, and Secure box will be active.
As for not seeing that xml file, make sure you have show all files checked. and look carefully, it can be over looked.
Bugs: None as of Now
Fixes: Fixed the Error in the MUI file for VIP showing Cancel instead of Delete. Now shows correctly Delete for VIP
Current MUI File Version: HTCMessaging_Client_1_5_20143625_00
Any Questions Feel Free.
***After further Looking I have removed the CAB and placed the files, I dont know why the Cab wont install the file, even with SDKCert run first. Instructions changed!***
UPDATE I have added another ZIP, this includes a video to show you all it takes to enable it using total commander.
MMS Preview Auto Rotate Screen Settings:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\Messaging]
"PlayerType"=dword:00000001
"PlayerFlags"=dword:00000001
"PlayerOrientation"=dword:00000002 (This Entry Doesnt seem to exist in current versions so I add it)
Soundz great
Thank you AD, would be awesome to share your findings. Thanks to Aruppenthal as well
I'm sorry for the lack of communication about this, but I have been working on a bug I found during my testing phase. and before I put this out, I wanted to be absolutely sure it was working. Let me explain in short the bug:
HTC messaging Client as most know, has two communication settings, one for Non-Secure Box, and the other for Secure Box. Now so far when I first found this, I thought I found what I needed, I was wrong. I found one key that activates Secure Box, but there are two keys, (No Secure Mode = 0 isnt it). It seems there is a permission key as well to allow to send through secure box. and to also display properly. When I first modified the current MUI file in 2.13 I had two bugs: 1) sending, 2) it was only working in traditional mode, not threaded. So I was on the hunt as to why, and I think I found the bug, or missing key. I need to do a little more testing before I show all my findings,. and as promised, release the 1.72 Telstra Enabled secure box, the 2.13 ToMoUS Secure Box. I am going to hold out on the 1.78 Korean since I need to translate it.
But its coming as soon as I am absolutely sure, just a couple of more days.
Please let me know of any issues with my current release. Cookers again, as long as credit is given, Feel free to use at will.
Sorry if I misunderstand, will this work for the stock 1.66 ROM WWE?

What ROM are you using?
uh ha....doesnt work on the stock wwe rom Says that it cannot be installed, choose a different location
Okay some instructions: MUST be installed on device.
Make sure HTC Messaging is NOT running or it will not install. As a failsafe turn sense OFF, shouldnt have to but better safe then sorry, and third copy the cab to the device and try running installation again, some people may have to run the install from the device due to a permission issue.
As for not seeing that xml file, make sure you have show all files checked. and look carefully, it can be over looked.
Instructions added to Main Post.

I didnt say these reg entries will be in your registry, I was pointing out to everyone what makes it active.
The MessageServiceComponents entry does exist, but with a 1406 value, changing this to 1534 enables Secure Box to work properly. without this entry you would only be able to view msgs in traditional mode and not threaded mode. Also your notification would not be your sms highlighted, but your mail tab highlighted.
The HTCDevice entry doesnt exist on stock roms, cooked roms it does, but its to point out to any of the cookers if they didnt know that these 2 entries are all thats needed in the rom to make it work.

This is for Stock Roms and the HTC Messaging Client.
99% sure it will not work with the arcsoft messaging app.
Does the MMS preview screen auto rotate in your version or is it still forced landscape?

This does not fix the landscape view of mms, this is only for enabling secure box.
My MMS always has been in lanscape mode.

I'll double check this md see whats happening. The MUI is the stock htc message client im using is version 1.5 build 2014.3625 thats from the 2.13 release rom. I will report back as soon as I get a chance to check it out, but remember if the HTCMessage.exe is running you will NOT be able to install the MUI. I would suggest doing a soft reset and attempt it again this way you know for sure the HTCMessage.exe is not running.
UNLESS your running custom rom, then you need to see in the task manager if its running, I would also suggest turning off Manila from the settings/all settings/today.

When you say Auto Rotate, can you please explain to me exactly what it does, I dont use this version but if its something I can port over to a newer version, I'm willing to try.

Chris, I think I found the reg entries for this.
Anyone willing to try check to see if you have these settings, if not try them out. based on Chris's comment I am assuming these 3 entries are it, but I'm testing it out as well to see what its about.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\Messaging]
"PlayerType"=dword:00000001
"PlayerFlags"=dword:00000001
"PlayerOrientation"=dword:00000002 (This Entry Doesnt seem to exist in current versions so I added it to my phone, the other two seem to have a value of 0 so I made them 1
CONFIRMED The settings above will auto-rotate your mms preview screen before hitting play. Hope that was what you were talking about Chris
