Yeah, I also tried andropan once, man, it was UGLY.
Sent from my CDMA Hero, sucka!
yep.. thats the name of it.. i remember seeing some BS samsung or LG phone that came with this feature stock and it looked good, so its hard to believe that someone hasn't made a good working panoramic picture taking device...
Hi,
I'm the developper of Andropan.
Can you tell me what is UGLY in my application?
So I can make it better and better
Which device do you use?
Thanks for your help
The Epic's camera app has panorama built in. Im on the Evo myself but my family uses the hero. Glad I lurked on this thread, hopefully the Epic's camera app can be ported over sometime
try vignette. is the best camera.

1.Starting the application into a black screen is a bit - distasteful and not user friendly. Add the buttons that you have when pressing menu here.
2. The Plumb and Level indicators are a bit hard to get right, you should probably think about over laying a set of arrows to tell the user how they need to move to get level and plumb.
3. Typical camera uses the trackball to snap the picture instead of menu or a screen tap (at least on our heros) This would make it more fluid.
4. Not sure how you are storing/retrieving GEO information, but its wrong...at least for me it is
5. Just in my office - it seemed like one picture would have a different light saturation than another frame in the picture.
6. Your stitching of the pictures seems like it has a VERY low error tolerance, and you might try looking at other ways of matching and stitching pieces together so they are seamless.
7. After you have one panorama, instead of showing it at the beginning, have a gallery button, this way they can come into a screen of buttons and actually navigate with out having to use hard keys.
The above was meant to be constructive - please don't take offense, I think you have a good starting point with the app. If you need help with any of it let me know, I have a pretty decent Java/Android background, just no time to make my own apps.

I didn't understand the difference between the two different options for creating a panoramic pic (I don't remember what they were called, manage and auto I think)
I also didn't understand the point of levels
Also it would be nice when the stitching occurs if the app looked for overlap and then removed the overlapping parts of the pic.
Another suggestion would be that when you take a pic that is part of the panoramic shot that you leave it on screen and then overlay the camera view over it so you can better line up and tell where the next shot should be.

Is there any way to disable that annoyng tilting effect og the sense 3??? I don't know why but most of the time I turn on the phone the screen is rotated left or right.

Maybe I made a wrong question. When you hold the phone on hand and you move it from left to right, objects on screen remain alligned with the floor. It's quite annoyng and it doesn't work as well....

The home screen tilts if I move the phone. I hate thing thing!
any chance of a vid or photo of this? I've never known anything like that before.
from what i gather, he's saying that the software image is staying aligned with the horizon when he moves his phone. so if he tilts his phone at 45 degrees, sense will still be in line with the horizon, where as you or I would need to tilt our heads at 45 degrees to see it aligned properly....get it?

two days ago i tested on the dhd a coocked rom, Rmix i think, that came with sense 3.0. It has the same thing, that I assume is a standard feature of the sense. I cannot believe you don't see it. Try to move the phone from left to right in the home screen: I can see the edge of the clock, in the meteo widget you see the moon or the sun in 3d. At a first sight it's amazing, but now, when i switch on the phone the screen is not aligned.....

I'm not sure this is something that actually needs to be corrected. The image is mirrored to give the individual you are video calling with a correct view of what they should be seeing on their end. If you're trying to patch the camera to make it non-mirrored, the image would appear mirrored on the other end during a video call. All phones with front facing cameras mirror.
Ummmmn no! The screen shows an image as if you were looking in a mirror. As in you raise your right arm and the arm on your right of the screen raises. And as in words on your tshirt are backwards. Try it. The op is right.
I don't know if this is done to make self portraits seem more natural. And I don't know if the other end during a video call is also mirrored or if it is shown as if they were looking at you and the mirroring is isolated to the users screen but I'm sure somone at Samsung thought it was a good idea. Thats a pretty big mistake to make.

That's the point I'm making. If it wasn't mirrored on your end it would be on the end of the people you're video chatting with. If you take a snapshot, it shouldn't be mirrored in a still.

you mis-understand. if you take a still the text is backwards on you t-shirt. it should be like any other camera but is not, instead it acts like a mirror would,
normally if the camera and screen are facing the same direction and you raise your right hand it would appear that you are standing facing your self raising your right hand (the hand to the left of your view being that you are facing opposite directions.)
what the infuse does it the hand to the right of your view raises. in feels intuitive as if you are using a mirror but rather than only mirroring the screen output on your end to hel it feel more natural it actually saves the image like that, and though i havent tried video chatting it seems it would be sending the image the wrong way as well.
if you are doing this on purpose to see how many people you can confuse, im gonna f-ing scream! i know all about perspective, you cant throw me off.
if you are confused then put on a t-shirt with a logo and take a still of yourself, then try to read it in the galery.
Yeah. Once you snap the picture, it still remains mirrored, and why should the camera app be mirroring it in the first place? It doesn't do any video chatting (correct me if I'm wrong).

it does in video chat in 3rd party apps, but you wouldnt want it mirrored for that, that would be wierd. the only reason i can come up with is a mirror feel more intuitive to focus on your self than a camera so they mirrored the image, they should have only mirored the screen image within the camera app though, instead it seems the firmware outputs a backwards image to file and likely any software using it.
that brings up another point though. can we pull the phone apk from the i9000 for video calling in the dialer and would that work on the infuse and on att's network?

I would like to know what applications can you use to video call as you mentioned here. I have tried Fring and Yahoo "Messenger" and both utilize the back camera and there are no settings or button to switch to front facing camera.
I am running the Infused rom, I wonder if that has something to do with it. I would like to make video calls, but at the moment haven't been able to.
You can use Qik. I tested it with my friend who has an EVO.

Wrong!! My buddy has an iphone 4 and i used to use a dell streak and the dell was mirrored. Once i got the infuse i told him his phone was screwed up because the infuse was mirrored too, so i tried to con him into the thought that his should be mirrored too. he took a pic of his t shirt with his and it showed a correct pic. he took a pic with my infuse and his t short was morrored. RETARDED !!!!
This camera is awesome! I used this on the S.U.R.F.A.C.E. rom because my kept force closing.

Hi all,
When taking a picture close up (like 2 inches away) the camera loses focus and takes crap pictures.
EG: I move the camera close to the object and press the screen, the camera begins to focus and then focuses past the perfect setting and stays on blurry?
Does anyone know why this does this? The camera is obviously capable of taking pics this close up as it focuses perfectly but then continues to focus and ends up losing it.
Sorry if this sounds vague it's hard to explain it.
If you know what i mean and your aware of a fix for this then i would appreciate the pointers.
Also if there is no fix for this and you are aware of a manually focusing camera app then that would be great too.
Cheers.

Is auto rotation enabled under your system settings? I think if its disabled then the camera won't rotate to landscape mode.
Why not just add the 16:9 borders yourself? Not that hard. lol
Try vignette and set the frame to "fullscreen". It automatically takes (crops) pictures you take to the aspect ratio of your screen. Not to mention the pictures look great.

Do you have a rough idea how graceful a widescreen pic looks. Why dont you simply say that i am here and i dont know how to do it. If a windows phone HD2 can do it with cm7 why cant you guys do it for a device that is android native. I want answers. Think of me as judge judy and yourself as you know who!
How about *not* being rude? You asked a question, people helped you to the best of their ability by advising you to try another camera app from the market. You ignored that poster three or more times and then demand help?
No. No one is going to make this option magically appear for you just because *you* want it.
Go ahead and sell your G2x, that's not really a threat we care about. That way we dont have to see you posting your rude remarks around here again anyway
The wide option is simply just not available on the g2x (yet?). Stop crying about it

The Coke can does not have enough depth in the background and the wall is just plain. Try something else and line it up straight instead of top-down.
