[Q] HTC One S 720p better than 1080p - HTC One S

ok ive just got the HTC one S and i love it but theres a few things bugging me,
1 Battery life
2 1080p
3 Weak Cell Signal
Ok the battery life could be because i cant put the fecking thing down......hahahaha
and the Signal could be problems with the mast near me as my girlfriends Evo 3D has a rubbish signal.
BUT OMG the video quality in 1080p is really really poor, ill try and upload my video on youtube, the quality is blurred and the detail is terrible my Galaxy S plus and my girlfriends HTC Evo 3D 720p video completely trashes the HTC one S video quality.
Anyone else concerned about the quality or is it my phone thats faulty ?
Thanks

Nope just u mines amazing

Mine video quality is awesome, can you upload your video? Video stabilization is set to on.

its like motion blur, if i keep the camera still and focused the picture quality is ok, but soon as you start walking with it the quality becomes very digitized and blocky. i dont get this with my old Galaxy S plus 720p and that doesnt even have any kind of stabilisation.
im uploading now. all the grass just blurs into a smudgy green mess.
EDIT: heres the link, http://youtu.be/Vv15Xp4GQ7M please turn down your speakers as i get a message halfway through and its loud

Ok in YouTube it shows the video quality at 240p.
Is this just me??
BTW; if that's your backyard, I'd be
****ting bricks to go outside .
Update got to watch it in hd 720 and 1080. Yeah horrible results. I'm going to try something now. Will upload video in a few.

Have you checked your video settings on the phone? Default isn't always set to 1080...also when you upload to YouTube the video is compressed...and is usually grainy...
Sent from my HTC One S

Yeah but only time you see compressed quality is when you watch them through the app. Open a lap top choose 1080p quality and is nothing like hq in app.

Thanks this shows me that the HTC one S 1080p quality isnt very good, it could be a software or focusing problem, but picture quality is blurred with minimal movement but crystal clear when held still, Grass and plants cause it to become blocky, my Samsung Galaxy S Plus has better moving image quality but i think its because it has a fixed focus.

Apart from the visual effects and animations, sense 3 is the first version able to read html emails from the old exchange. The performance and screen resolution are also important improvements. It is using the last generations softwate and hardware.

now thats a relief.
I never had a issue with cell signal but I did have a issue with the WiFi dropping off when holding it in landscape view until I went into the WiFi settings and pumped WiFi performance to the max. After doing that, the WiFI stays strong when holding it in landscape.

I have no death grip problem like I do with my HD2.
BTW: the biggest change I notice last night, besides speed and sense 3.0, was the camera. When recording 1080p, the zoom works. On my HD2, I can only use the zoom before I start recording, not during recording.

Cool beans! I hated having the fixed zoom durring recording. So you're saying that your HD2 has deathgrip but not the Sensation ?

[Q] Camera resolution issue

Hi all -
I'm using the latest nightly of Cyanogen 7, but this issue has been present for a few months now. I keep hoping the latest nightly will fix it, but I'm starting to worry that it's a hardware issue.
It's gritty and just very low quality overall. Is this a known issue? Or did my camera get messed up somehow.
Thanks for the help!
It isn't letting me post a link to the image, but I can shoot you a link if you're willing to help.
Try and install MIUI camera onto it.

If your pics are grainy in low light, then that is normal. The camera in this phone is not the greatest in low light situations. If outdoor/brightly lit pics are grainy, then something is probably wrong with your camera sensor.
alright and have you tried a different ROM and see if that worked?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Well I started with Revolution (with Sense) and then moved to Cyanogen. I checked photos back to when I probably had Rev and they were still grainy.
I just checked some of the outdoor photos I've taken. The ones where there's ample light turn out pretty well, but when its a bit overcast or in the woods it's still pretty crappy.
Guess I just have to deal with it.
Thanks for the help guys, really appreciate it.
I would suggest playing around with the White balance, ISO, and metering mode. I've been able to improve the low light quality of most of my pictures.
currently using MIUI Camera with nice results. might want to try using another camera app like camera360

Looking for 2D video sample with video stabilizer (Gingerbread)

Please can someone who has updated to Gingerbread upload a video sample which demonstrates the function of the new video stabilizer?

I played with it a little earlier. Seems to be pretty decent. The camera has seen a massive overall improvement. Physical shutter button and Flash in 3d mode are the two massive improvements that stand out above all.

Would you say that the quality of the 2d photos has had a big improvement and is the auto focus quicker now?
Thx for uploadung! Unfortunately the video resolution seems not to look good @1080p. There seems to be a lack of sharpness. Honestly said, iPhone 4S 1080p videos look much better.

Video in the acurateam v1 and v2 gingerbread roma is PERFECT. Like totally flawless. No mor glitches or stops or poor audio sync. The quality is great. The stills have improved vastly in quality as well as the overall speed of the camera having improved immensely, to a more than useable level.
Add in the video editor and you have a very useable camera. My one beef is not being able to edit 1080p video.

Should we still expect the vast improvement in quality of 2d photos to still be there once LG release the final version of gingerbread in the next couple of weeks?

It captures much darker in general; it works by halving the recording resolution and blending the pixels.

There has to be a fix...
I just installed "energy ROM" on my girlfriends HTC Amaze and it has slow motion video recorder baked into the ROM and it does not record dark indoors at all. Furthermore it does it at 720p. So somehow there has to be a fix or a better camcorder out there. Someone with more knowledge could help us... Thanks in advance.

Video Lag

i haven't really seen anyone complain about this?! i've been taking videos recently (1080p) and the camera is AWFUL! VERY laggy, especially with bright lights and lots of movement.
anyone else noticing this?! hopefully they'll release a fix. i could upload some videos if you guys want examples.
So I guess no one has been having this problem? Weird.
