I know it's not true HD but is there anyway to get the Nexus One HD hack on Nexus S?
bump.........
nop.....no way....cannot be done....not possible... and search the NS forum for 720,HD recording.. there were threads like this and it was concluded its not possible....if it was you would see roms with 720p on them or something.... try LG camera from market to record with MP4 if it gives you any satisfaction.
even i used to wonder the same thing when i got my nexus s first..
no... there are 10 other threads about this.
can you link me thread please?
I know 720p isn't possible but nexus one 720p hack isn't true HD
so is there how can I do this?
And I've talked to a person on youtube who've uploaded 720p Nexus S recording
and said he's using Oxygen ROM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDjsLV4JCUw&feature=channel_video_title
his video
He says right in the comments that it is 720x480. That's not 720p. 1280x720 is.
but youtube upscaled it to hd video like how they did it with the nexus one hack.
How was that possible?
Upscaled is the key word there. It isn't true 720p. I mean look at it. It looks like a scaled low res video.
Edit: I know you said you don't want true 720p, you just want the hack. But really if it looks like crappy upscaled video, what is the point?

youtube does that for every video, it sets it in different p's but its not true 720p.
to find the thread, find it yourself
I have been using the LGCamera with Weapon 3.0 but the front facing camera is not good. I want both cameras to work well So I flashed the stock gingerbread, and all works well except that the video options, well, there are none.
I would like to be able to choose 480p, 720p and 1080p, the CM7 camera from 7.101 has more options but I didn't get to test/check the output resolutions.
Is there a good app for this, I am I stuck jumping from LGCamera 3.0 to Stock, is there a CM7 Camera flashable zip for stock root gingerbread roms?
I think the IPhone 4S can only record in 1080p too. Lol, Android is about options!
i just want to know after update to gingerbread can infuse record video in 1080 resolution...
Nope.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
this is a myth that has been perpetuated by a rather unclear ad from samsung before the infuse was released. it simply said "1080p video" it did not say video recording but it should have specified it as playback. it also said "gingerbread" and "hdmi" when it should have said "gingerbread or hdmi" since att didn't get gingerbread and wont for probably atleast another month or 2, and because rogers didn't and wont get hdmi.
I read somewhere that if you replace some camera files of the gs2 to the infuse it will have 1080p (has to be gingerbread). Its just sad how Sammy restricts their devices to make their newer ones look better.
i also read somewhere infuse camera module is identical to s2,so technically it's possible.just need software support.

and hardware that can encode it that fast..
1080p isn't much for a sensor. it only amounts to 2mp so the sensor has never been the limiting factor in smartphone video. video encoding is hardware intensive and though i believe the infuse processor can do it i think it would mean background processes might have to be killed to do it.
Interesting. Out of curiosity, is there anyone here who has been able to record in 1080p even in a "testbed" situation?
Hi guys,
I am currently using Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 XE on my Sensation and I have several major problems:
1. I realize that 1080p mkv videos that my phone can play smoothly on Gingerbread (including Youtube HD 1080p) now become laggy. Even with SD videos (fully HW accelerated), sometimes the playback is choppy as well (I use MX player and Dice player). Can anyone help me confirm whether you have the same problems? I believe ARHD ICS does not have GPU overclocked as on Gingerbread, hence the choppy video playback.
2. On random occasions, I cannot get any sound on any applications, but notification sounds and stock music player are working normally. I can still listen to music through the stock player but cannot get any sound for videos. Everything will return to normal when I restart the phone.
3. Wifi randomly turns on by itself. The last time I check, this problem seems to be unsolved, but I may be wrong.
Any kind souls willing to give me some directions to solve the above problems? ARHD Gingerbread ROM does not have any of the problems above, but I don't want to go back to Gingerbread.
Bump, still waiting...
Imo bad flash, I never had those problems. Video playback even on flash has been buttery-smooth.

And yes talking 1080p video.

Yes, ARHD ICS does not have GPU overclocked. But that shouldn't be the reason for your video playback problem. Because of your other problems I also believe in a bad flash...Try a reinstall.
Bad Flash or using a wrong kernel.
I have tried flashing the ROM 3 times (also redownload the ROM, check md5), with both stock kernel and Sebastian's kernel (at 1.2, 1.5, 1.7 Ghz) and the video playback is still quite bad. I just flash the latest 6.5.2 on my Sensation and it is still the same problem with video playback. Just to confirm, can you guys watch 1080p youtube hd video without any problems?
The playback problem disappear straight away when I go back to GB.
Like I said, yes, I can. In both the app and on Browser with flash player.

Video Choppy
Hey man, in MX player, are you hardware accelerating or software accelerating?
I noticed that HW accl is laggy, buy software accl is smooth

Yes, I am sure that I play my videos with hardware acceleration, and about your observation, I beg to differ. The way I understand it is like this: with hardware acceleration, the task of video playback is offloaded to the GPU, hence better rendering, frame rate and better battery performance. If you use software rendering, the whole task is given to the CPU, which will need to run at full speed to decode, and there is no guarantee that it plays smoothly. For instance, on my Sensation, without hardware acceleration, 1080p videos are impossible to play.
I am still trying every possible solution to my video playback problem. Yesterday I also tried Sebastian's latest kernel, with GPU overclocked, the frame rate is getting better, but it is still not on par with Gingerbread's performance.
Any other suggestions?
I think my description was not clear enough. The correct word for my situation is actually micro-stuttering, it is similar to situations when you are playing computer games with either nVidia SLI or ATI Crossfire.
I officially give up, don't really know how to solve the problem now.
why dont you try flashing another rom?
you keep saying its ARHD fault so flash something else and see?
Even i am facing this problem on my XE. mkv high bit rate videos ( more than 10mbps) are having micro stuttering. Hell even 720p hight bitrate videos. I am coming from galaxy S2 and these high bitrate videos used to play buttery smooth. Cant adreno 220 handle 720p videos? this is shame. i can say 1080p mp4 videos are playing fine though.

I will try other ROMs when I have enough free time, but someone told me that it is the same problem for all ICS ROM on the Sensation.

I just want to clarify with you: there is no problem with video playback on Gingerbread, only on ICS that the problem occurs, so it really ROM-dependent, you may want to give ARHD 4.1.13 a try instead of those latest ICS ROMs. Having said that, it is a known fact that Mali-400 MP has much higher performance than Adreno 220, even in terms of graphics and video playback. I think h.264 high profile videos with higher than 10mbps is too much the Sensation, it is a hardware limitation after all. If you want to watch any videos without problem, the ASUS Transformer Prime is the only choice.
Just for curiosity - why bother playing a 1080p file on a device with a (much) lower native res?

There are two important reasons:
1. There is no need for conversion. I can use the same files for my laptop and my phone.
2. Quality: It is all about the video quality, you just have to see it to believe, it is just like day and night. You can put 2 youtube videos with SD quality (say 480p) and full HD quality (1080p) on your phones (in this case, the Sensation) and compare them side-by-side. Image quality, colors, details are much better on full HD and the differences are obvious, regardless of your phone's native resolution. In a sense, it can be comparable to your laptop situation: should I buy a Blu-ray movie to watch on my 720p screen laptop? If you have watched Blu-ray movies before, you definitely will know the answer.

Understandable, even though cheap storage and batched rips minimalize the effort.

Yeah, because you compare apples and oranges.
Obviously a downscaled 1080p looks better than an upscaled 480p.
Also, the used color space is not bound to the resolution.
And yes, a BR will look better on your 720p screen. Obviously. DVDs are 576 mpeg-2 encoded ^^

I have, and i agree. But one should think trough why, and when it makes sense.
No offense, one should do whatever he wants to do.
I (but that may be me) would rather have a 540 movie with high bitrate than a 1080p with a lousy one, just to say "hey, it's HD"
