I guess this normally isnt such an issue but Ive been using the slide2unlock program which is pretty neat. Anyways it can do full screen caller id pictures which is great. However, it ends up just zooming in on my picture and looks like crap. The pic I used is a 2mp picture so its gotta be fairly large (well larger than the screen thats for sure)... Anyways anyway in general to get higher quality images out of WM6? And if anyone know in relation to Slide2Unlock as well that would be great
Thanks
anyone know?
do u have the link to this program?
I guess to save space the phone saves the contact picture with certain compression and size. Slide2Unlock just use the contact picture that you have assigned to that contact and stretches it because it's too small.
I belive you have no option to use a bigger image, it's a OS "feature" to save space/memory and improve speed.
But I may be extremely wrong.
It's not what is asked, but I suggest you to use Photo Contact Pro
with the caller id actived... in the S2U the image in fullscreen mode.... its to bad like a gaussing blur image... i re-size for 150x159 pixels... and the problem is the same...
how to have a highehr quality images in the caller id..... thanx
I posted on this subject in another thread before:

I hope there are useful info in there.
It has been too long for all of us waiting for a fix so as to use camera in dark places, and not to obtain an "all white" picture .... (mostly in a short range 1-2 m)
Any idea how to fix that crazy too bright flash leds
i second this.. lol the photos i take are WHITE
I installed all hotfixes. The pictures with flash looks OK to me.
But Jpg compress still too high. High ISO produces pictures with red horizontal lines..
Seriously guys there's already a thread for this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=590916 we dont need another!
If you have a problem with over exposed photos please contact htc and tell them, as with the pink blob the more complaints, the faster they acknowledge and make a fix thanks.
is there any magnifying glass tool like iphone ? sorry for my english.
iam look for them too but i found noting
is nobody there how can program it
Yeah, it's possible, but it doesn't work everywhere (just in the text messaging screen, basically).
Look for this in the registry and change it to 1:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\TextSelection\EnableMagnifier"

Great thing here =) thanks!
Magnifying glass
The one in the current iPhone TV ad looks very cool... haven't tried the registry tweak to enable the one mentioned above, but I suspect that's missing the point. The one I'd like to see would use the camera on the back of the HD2, preferably illuminated by the LEDs, and display a magnified image on the screen (the funky old-fashioned handle could be optional).
With a 5 megapixel camera, you could display at actual size just a portion of the image live would result in a 13x magnification without further processing. You could probably double that before pixels become jagged.
That would be far more impressive that what's possible with the iPhone.
Can't be that hard to program...???
@slowcat2:
This thread is about a 'virtual' magnifying glass that magnifies a part of your screen, specifically when selecting text, to increase the accuracy of your finger on the touch screen.
Your idea is actually pretty cool. I had my doubts at first, as I thought the HD2's camera and lens aren't good enough (even with its 5 megapixels) to offer a detailed and sharp image at close range; but then again, just using the built-in 2x zoom in the camera app, I already got a result that could be useful in some circumstances.

thanks, you are right, using the zoom is enough, good idea !

Actually, if I'm calculating correctly, since the pictures from the camera are 2592x1552 px, showing a portion of the image at actual pixel size on our 800x480 px screens would result in a 3,24x magnification (2592/800) along each axis. Or did I miss something?
Still, that's a lot more than what the zoom feature on the camera does, so there's room for improvement. Let's hope a developer picks this idea up!
Unless this has been bumped into another thread, I can't see how/why this hasn't been explored more. iPhone ads have a "Magnifying Glass" that obviously uses the camera lens to read images from the front and display them on the back (screen).
The HD2 has exactly the same physical make up of a camera lens on one side and a screen on the other and, when taking photos, this is utilised.
Presumably the LEDs would have to be forced on because of the closeness of the image and the camera would also have to be forced to maximum magnification, leaving the holder to move in and out to get focus.
The rest is just "tarting up".
I'd do it myself, if it weren't for a lack of time and talent!
Photo App that can use a Half transparent image as "background" "gauge/pattern/jig".
Hi,
1st of all, excuse me if beeing in the wrong section.
I tried some "PiP and Panorama" photo apps already, but I search for somethign different.
I need a photo app, where you can put any image as a half-transparent background, while taking photos.
The half-transparent image should act as an "gauge/pattern/jig" and should not influence the photos taken while using the half-transparent image.
I remember the panorma app from my old Sony w800i, where, while taking panorama photos, every next photo beeing shot, was shwoing a half of the previous photo, so you coudl attach the next shot properly.
What I am trying to achieve with this ? It is for a little project, to add images into another image, which otherwise would involve lots of photoshopping i.e. Distort/Skew/Perspective and so on.
Whit this app Im searching for, a lot of photoshopping would not be needed, as I could use the half transparent image in the camera background, to take photos from the right angle without needing to use Distort/Skew/Perspective later.
I really hope humans understand this wall of text
Thanks in advance.
Photochron from the PlayStore did the job...more or less :/
hi,
I need some simple paint app for mark some thinks over a picture. I am not an artist - I found some apps for such a people but its not my point. For example if I have the map of london I want to zoom and nark some stations , put some info about it on the picture and so on. I need just simple brush for marking while the picture is zoomed and simple text area which I can put somwhere on the picture usually when its zoomed. at all allthe operarions is needed to be done at zoomed mode because the screen of my phone is only 5 inches which is small when u have some map ot full hd resolution picture.
