HTC Fuze with 2nd Camera - Touch Pro, Fuze General

I was wondering,
do you think it is possible to add a front camera to the fuze?

Not worth it if you ask me, i'm sure it could be done with a lot of headaches
But really, the AT&T keyboard just ticks me off (What happened to the tab key and the control key????)
Just buy a Touch pro and sell the fuze, thats what i'm planning to do

Camera
The european version had a front and back camera.

I'm not sure why you would do that. Video calling isn't supported by any of the carriers (unless I'm mistaken). But if you want one to use as a webcam, then I see where it's going.

Touch Pro doesn't have US 3G.

This. I have an EDGE touch pro because I bought the euro one.. not too bad for me since I dont do much that absolutely requires a 3g connection but it'd be nice to have...
trust me, stick with the FUZE

Video calling is supported via internet though and a front camera would have been a great addition.

att supports video calls, and you can use the regular camera as a webcam so theres no need for the front facing camera.

I have the European Touch Pro with the front camera, and can't find any software that allows me to use it (except the "Camera" program that came with it).
Also, I can't do 3G, and I think that's something you'd use more often.

Devices with Front video calling camera MS portrait app

Has someone tried the Microsoft Portrait software, i know its a old beta but has someone tried it with a device with the video calling camera?
Link to the site http://research.microsoft.com/mcom/portrait/
Microsoft Portrait
i have tried it with both tytn and tytnII and no luck, i didnt invest alot of time and got busy with life.. but i never got it to work.. im sure if someone actually devoted some time to it that it could possibly work..
thanks for your response
anyone else
i just got the chatting and talking to work but no camera even with a regular smartphone. has someone tried it with the wizard(mine does not work the camera)
A little old, but i'm looking for a video-conference software via wifi/activesync.
MS portrait doesn't recognize my Kaiser's cameras, but it's perfect in my Blue-Angel... But i don't use my BA anymore...
Is there any developer here interested in video capabilities of our devices ?
It can do almost everything, but I can't find a video-conferencing software, even with two cameras onboard...

Because there aren't. See my TiVi review posted about a month ago. Unfortunately, you'll need to use another platform (for example, Symbian or a tablet PC) if you do need video calling over IP.
Well... I'm really shocked that nobody in winmo's world is interested in developing a videoconferencing software via wifi... i'd do it if i could...
Portrait is a very good start, but we need something working with newer CPUs...

its was a while since i had posted this that i had run across this app, but even still now after a while from this being posted i have not seen anything like this, i would like to see it work on my XDA Flame b/c i dont have my wizard anymore(friend has it)........its a good idea but it seems now that this has to turn into a much bigger app, in the meaning of having more features and to be updated to be used in the other pc apps other then just the old msn messenger

As I stated: it's impossible to develop a video conferencing app compatible with all handsets. Also see http://msmobiles.com/f/viewtopic.php?t=20292 for more info on this linked from my latest Misc News ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400931 ).

Portrait on the Trinity
I travel a lot and so I tried setting this up on my Trinity and my wife's laptop. Running in the house via wifi worked. However, there was so much lag as to be unusable. Good luck. I hope someone has a new app for this. (Skype, hopefully).
TYTN I

A few Questions before buying the Touch pro

hello everyone ,
i've been reading this forum for a while now despite the fact that i don't own an htc diamond or touch pro...i finally saved enough money to buy either one of them but i'm thinking about the touch pro...but i have some questions:
1- what are the applications made for the diamond which don't work on the touch pro?
2- does the " Gsen" programe works on the touch pro?
and if any of you have any advise before i buy the touch pro please let me know...i'll be thankfull
1- what are the applications made for the diamond which don't work on the touch pro?
Very few of these, one of them was the light saber app... I wish I had it
2- does the " Gsen" programe works on the touch pro?
Yes, works 100%

thanx for the useful replay..
i got another question which confused me a lot:
which is better and what are the differences between "GSen" and "Brins0net_ScreenRotator" ?
which is better and what are the differences between "GSen" and "Brins0net_ScreenRotator" ?
Never even heard of the second one, GSen is the widely accepted and popular one around here, the only one I can guarantee worked on my Raphael.
any other Apps don't works on the diamond but don't work on the touch pro ?!?!
plz help decide what to buy before i spend the money
Just get the Touch Pro, more RAM, physical keyboard, matte finish backing, adequate battery, flash for the camera (which is still poor, but better than without the flash). Its a better phone allround.

None that I've used... I think they're pretty much completely interchangeable, I still can't figure out why that light saber app wouldn't work.

Touch Pro 2 camera app?

Does anyone know if the camera app from the TP2 will work on the Fuze? Since I've read the two devices share the same camera, I was hoping the Fuze might be capable of recording video at VGA resolution. Has anyone tested it?
I don't know if it would be compatible without some tweaking to it, since it has onscreen controls, especially since the TP2 is missing the hardware buttons. I'd like to see someone port it though, the ability to touch where you want to focus is really nice.
i briefly looked for a touch pro 2 camera app and couldn't find one extracted.
I wonder if the one from the HD doesn't work.
I thought I had the cab somewhere.

Built-in camera app

Is there any camera application which can enable (auto or manual) focus settings? Anybody knows something about it?
The focus function is a hardware function, so its not limited by missing drivers/software.
That function is not available on the Mega and cannot be enabled.
Thank you
I too would like this and the ability to map the button to one of the volume keys. seriously i love my Touch 2 but even cheap phones have a better camera...
Am afraid you have to live with it....search XDA for "camera settings" and than you will see a fair number of articles which give some improvements (have read most of them) but in general HTC is not strong with camera's.......
I found an app called +Que Camera 4.0 for HTC phones but it wont install on the touch2, oh well. I can cope with a crappy camera, i guess....

Where did you find? Can you share?
Thanks
http://winmo.techparaiso.com/applications-tools/multimedia/camera-app-4-0/
Thanks...., did not test the application (yet)....is kinda big. But from reading I learn that this does not improve the camera itself but you can more easily change settings and add some options like sports mode etc.....these can be changed aswell with "diamond tweak" , "advanced configuration tools" or "SK tools" etc.
Built in Camera
You can the magnifier button to zoom in & out while using the camera. It is not very useful, doesn't give much zoom but works.
Yes, Camera App 4.0 QVGA can not be installed in hTC Touch2. I tried it in several times and failed. I also looking for other way to improve camera because I am using "Penpower WorldCard Mobile". Touch2 Camera could not provide clear picture for recognition. Does anyone have improvement?

On XDA there are several threads on getting the max out of your camera by changing settings....search and try..but much improvement you will not get...

yes i do want to buy a device with a good flash and autofocus ... Mega is super nice and fast with programs but lacks on camera ... i'm on a crossway between ""Mind the gap !-> ht tp://www.gsmarena.com/lg_kc780-2542.php
and the ""Mind the gap !-> ht tp://www.gsmarena.com/lg_ku990_viewty-2070.php the price isnt that different
and umm about the HTC Mega cam ... anything new ?!
Ok mate, have fun and sent me a PM about your camera experiences.....
Camera App doesn't work
for better photos the best way is editing them with resco photo viewer or(and) spb imageer. don't try the impossible to take better photos with low quality cameras instead editing with propper tools. this is the best way.
no use even if u got focus cam is too ****ty to use , just buy a propa , panasonic or sony camm and enjoy ...

Soft for talking by front cam HD2 like ibouze 4

Hello, do you know a soft whitch can be used to talk via the front cam of the HD2 like the ibouze 4?
there is no front cam on the hd2
HD2 doesn't have a front camera.
I'm not sure...
But I think he means the only camera it has..
I don't believe there are any video chat apps for the HD2, sorry..
There is no way of doing it, because people never used it!
Why does everyone want it since crapple got it!?
Lemme tell You my experience with videotalk on my HTC Touch HD (which I staill have) and my LG GD900-Wristwatch-Handy (which I wear every day):
Tried it once to see if it works, NEVER USED IT AGAIN !!!!!!!!! ´cause only few people You call will even know that maybe they have a feature like this on their own cellphones. Doesn´t work when I call friends in other countries since provider don´t support it or have dirfferent protocols etc. etc.
Nobody needs it.
To proof that also YOU don´t need it: get a one month VZOChat account and see that also You won´t use it .............
