[Q] Camera Problem - Stripes With Colors - HTC Desire S

I bought this device recently and noticed that when taking pictures with applications i get distorted pictures with stripes. But when using built-in application for taking pictures, everything is normal.
Please take a look at picture below:

Nice curtains!....where did you get them??
Afraid that this doesn't happen to me, what do you mean by "taking pictures with applications?" I only use the camera application.

Smart Measure and Little Photo are applications i used so far and found same problem in both. Something tells me other applications will be no different.

Have the same problem sometimes... like in that program that makes the people fat

Open your camera app, go into settings, and turn off wide screen picture aspect ratio. Exit camera app.
Now when you use other applications does it still do this?

Tried that, tried turning features off, changing ISO etc. but all this did nothing.

Same problem here. Some other camera apps work though.

Have you tried booting in safe mode and seeing if there is any difference?

I believe it's CTRL + ALT + DEL
lol. Sorry couldn't resist! Not sure what you mean by safe mode. Do you mean recovery?

yep same here! When using the FatBooth App i get the curtains. But when using the standard photo app it's all ok. Also tried a lower resolution and the widescreen off, no difference...

Safe Mode did not help, will wait for HTC's response. Also there was one picture that looked normal when i was browsing gallery, but when i tapped on it to view it in full screen the "curtains effect" appeared. Weird...

FFC in reverse?

First off let me save it my apt for some reason isn't loading up G2x q&a, which is why I'm posting here.
Now for my question.
Has anyone noticed, that the front facing camera takes pictures in mirror image?
Case in point:

Here is the same item using the RFC:
Just found it interesting. Anyone know why?

Maybe because its use is for video calls...stand infront of a mirror and talk, thats how the other person actually sees you.

Ehhhh, I appreciate the input, but my webcam doesn't work like that. Although, who am I to discredit your theory, it's better than mine which is better than any thing I can come up with.

/facepalm
open the FFC and hold the phone facing you but near a wall, right or left side is fine... now switch it to the RFC and hold it near the wall... view the photo taken with the RFC from the view that the camera was facing, keep the FFC view facing you... see how the wall on the two different camera views are both on the same side?
if it is still not clicking then lets try this... go to a MIRROR, imagine that the person you are seeing is not really yourself (hard i know lol but think abstractly)... point at THEIR left eye... now, point to YOUR left eye...
now think of the different cameras in the position of the mirror instead and how the different views would effect what you are actually seeing... have fun with this mindfuck
It is all about the orientation of you and the camera and what the camera is viewing then what it is displaying back to us...
btw the FCC is showing the correct view

[Q] How to take screen capture?

I have Samsung Focus on 7008 and the following installed
[XAP] Screen capture program (Based on "The DllImport Project")
I am not able to figure out what button to hold to take the screen capture. I hold the camera button and the camera app launches. No popup for the screen capture comes up.
What am I doing wrong?
Have you Mango ? If yes that normal - yet there is no application for Mango to do screenshoots.
Hey, thanks for your reply. If you notice I mention 7008 which is pre-nodo. Anyway now I have updated to 7390 which is NoDo.
So anyone know how to take screenshots?
Don't hold the camera button all the way down, just hold it slightly down. This is called "focusing the camera." This also works in the Camera app to fix blurry pictures.
If you notice I mention 7008

I'm sorry I did not notice
BTW for a screenshot I used the same apps on NoDo (7392) and it work very good. Maybe too hard you press the shutter button (must be less than 0.5 sec.) ?

Thanks to you both. I could take the pictures. Takes a bit getting used to in the start.
Now I have run into another problem.
I open the app, remove the checkbox to turn off the "dehydrate hack" and come out. When I come back into the app the check box is always already ticked.
Is this an expected behavior.
have you folks tried phone 8 app , it cost 99p
and does screen captures
allows you to custom your windows phone but sadly only when the app is
started if you exist the app everything returns back to default settings

If you mean picture screen shoots then yes it is possible, I do it all the time. See my Screen Capture below.

Okay, usually I don't take photos with my mobile, I'd rather choose a DSLR because of the better quality. Anyways, here is one I've taken. The phone was running MIUI v9 (as far as I know). I used the MIUI Camera App Port from the i9003 Themes and Apps section. 5MP, exposition -2. Not the best photo I have taken, but quite ok and the quality is ok for a mobile, but unfortunately I needed to compress it, before uploading.

[Resolved] Looking for an app

Hello,
I'm looking for an app that i had quite a long time ago, it had as option to have compatibility with older apps (meaning that apps that didn't go fullscreen on higher resolution devices, got upscaled to have the full screen covered).
Anyone know what app that was or has another app that can do the same?
Thanks in advance.

Assuming you have an Android, it should fit the screen regardless.
Yes i do have Android and no it doesn't, why would i be asking for it otherwise
What phone you have and what apps aren't fiting?
The Sensation, currently i have it with FF3 (Final Fantasy 3), 2 black borders on the side.
But older apps have this aswell (some just appear in a small screen with black area's in the bottom and side parts)
Like this with FF3:

Hmm.. this doesn't happen on my Droid 3 except on emulators, in which case it has to do with the original game having a specific resolution. Sorry I couldn't help
After searching some forums, i have finally found a post i made for a game that had this problem (Eternal Legacy HD).
The app is Spare Parts.
Thanks for trying to help tho!

[Q] Camera Issue after installing CM10. How to fix...

Hey all,
I flashed CM 10 last night and when I went to use my camera, my screen looked like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you see.. the camera preview is messed up. Displaying the image the camera sees four times... and not even fully rendered.
I wasn't able to get an actual screenshot of this off my phone as it saves it as a normal picture so I had to use a real camera. The camera functions and takes proper pictures... but the screen so messed up it makes it difficult to take a pic. Also, if I change settings the gallery crashes.
Has anyone come across this before? If so... how do I resolve this heh.
TIA!
Any thoughts? This is driving me insane lol.
My suggestion would be clearing data on the gallery(camera is part of the gallery) to see if that helps. Also try ticking the box under developer settings that references HW overlays.

Clear your data in the gallery see of that works, n fyi don't freak out if your pictures don't pop up in the gallery after you clear gallery data, your pictures aren't gone they will pop back up after some time
