[SOLVED]Topaz WM6.5.5 camera problem - Windows Mobile

I cooked my rom using the latest Da G WM6.5.5 SYS
All works fine, except the htc camera.
Wen I open my camera, all is fine, but if I take a picture or if I take a landscape picture, wen the camera rotates the screen is all black, sometimes all I can see is a little square in the middle of the screen.
Does anybody knows of a fix?
btw: im using the latest S2 drivers and packages
See screen shots attached.
Thanks and regards
MOD Edit: Solved issue

i have the same issue with the HTC mega camera but i nevertake it so much importance due to the dependacies in htc mega pkgs... this is interesting

what sensor sdk are you using....the one from S2 that matches camera?

Thanks for the reply.
Yes iam using the sensor sdk from the s2 rom that matches the camera, in fact im using all the ext packages from the s2 rom.
In WM6,5 (com3 I think) it works fine, just in wm6.5.5 that this happens.

i guess its possible that it could be the sensor sdk you are using not being compatible with wm 6.5.5, you should at least try the one from rhodium 2.07 and see if it works...i dont have this problem with rhodium S2. also you could try another camera from topaz that you know has worked for you in the past..maybe an older one and see if it will work with your current configuration to help narrow down the problem.

Hi,
Maybe you can try Topaz camera instead of Rhodium.
If I'm not mistaking the camera is depended on streamingsdk, mhub and dshow as well.

I finally got the camera to work proper
I had some auto gyrator reg edits messing with it
Thanks for the help guys
Regards

Hiii there, i have same problem with my HD, could you teach me step by step how to fix this problem? Big thanks to you all, master..

[APP]HTC G-Sensor Calibrator [calibration not saved on some devices]

Here is HTC G-Sensor Calibrator extracted from HTC Raphael, works as well on Diamond.
[EDIT] G-Sensor can't be calibred on Diamond since original driver doesn't consider calibration data... We need to port Raphael driver.
Diamond users, I am preparing a big surprise for you...
Enjoy!
Wow, that's awesome !
Thank You
Doesn't seem to work for me. Installed it and ran the calibration.
However, it seemed that it didn't save the calibration for me?
Using bElite 0.95.
It doen't work for me, orginal duch rom.
Its say calibration completed but the bubbels are still not in the middle.
Unfortunately for me too. On Italian Original ROM 1.37 it returns 'Calibration Completed' but after that the left-right bubble turn back un-aligned.
...
What kind a big surprise Schaps, i'm getting so curious!!!
I had the impression it was working the first time I tried... Am I wrong?
Ok I will investigate to get it fully working, I think it should be possible.
I get the same thing. The Horizontal bubble is spot on but the vertical is a tiny bit out.
When you correct it, it says its calibrated then the Vertical bubble goes back to where it was?
Strange.
Nice find tho.
Im using a standard Stock HTC Rom 1.37.405.1 WWE. Not a cooked Rom.

Great, i love suprises! Thanks schaps for all your hardwork and discoveries. I speak for all the Diamond users on here im sure!
guys..how can we really make sure the phone is flat? i tried with my diamond cover off, but if u touch the edge of the phone, you still can feel actually its not firmly flatten right?
BTW..i tried out the calibration tool as well...after re-enter the calibration tool with 1st calibration done, the reading is out again
For me, it does calibrate my G-Sensor, but if i soft reset the device, it come back to the same setting
Schaps, it works flawless in my ATHENA using the X7510/Diamond ROM
Very impressive
Dear,
I try it on my HTC original 1.37.406.1 French the soft is beautiful but can't calibrabe. Hope it did in a few time because it seems to be usefull.
Thank you.
Sorry but no calibation on my german o2 XDA Diamond with the orginal Rom! But i´m sure you guys will solve the problem!

The Athena has a LIS302DL G-sensor whereas the Diamond (and Raphael?) has a Kionix KXSD9.
This utility runs on my Diamond, but does not calibrate the sensor. Maybe this utility is only intended for a specific chip?
Will try it! Thanks
Hi schaps, since you are looking at the g sensor and the Raphael, is there any chance do you think of it being possible to get VueFlo working on the Diamond, or would it even be worth having? Looking forward to your surprise, I hope it's a rom! Thanks for your hard work.
Ok,
the software works for sure because it changes some registry keys under :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\GSensor
It changes the "calibrateX-Y" keys that were all set at 0 before. I've spot it writes a very strange value for key Calibrate3-2, and I guess that's why the Gsensor driver does set them back to default values. I am trying to understand how it works right now.
EDIT: Noway!! The data in regsitry are always set to default on reset, the strange value could be a negative number in an unsigned rappresentation. The good news is that the calibration work 'til reset.
P.S.: Some of the masters could please be so gentle to advice me on what disassembler to use for ppc software ? I searched this forum but I got confused. Thanks a lot.
Calibration works but Diamond driver doesn't consider calibration data, so there is no way to calibrate Diamond G-sensor using original driver. We need Raphael driver since it will use calibration data stored in registry. I have tried to port this driver to Diamond since it has exactly the same accelerometer hardware, but it doesn't work... It may be because Diamond doesn't have keyboard (G-Sensor should be automatically stopped on Touch Pro when keyboard is out or when device is in low power mode).

VueFLO is part of my surprise
It works on few apps at the moment but I plan to support most of apps in the future (including IE and Opera of course).

HTC Footprints; possible?

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if the chefs could put the HTC Footprints into their roms?
I've noticed it that Footprint is only available on the newest HTC Cruise.
Altough most chefs uses the ROMS from Diamond2 (now) which doesn't have Footprints, do you think it would be possible to implement it into D2 Rom?
PS: i'm not sure to put it into the ROM dev-section, sorry if it's in the wrong section.

I think he meant "Footprints", and it's a lot more feature than R3A camera apps that just has geo-tagging.
I had Footprints built-in in my 2.x and 3.x series.

Hi all,
i'm new in Xperia world and this forum has been very helpfull for me...
I got manila TFL3D installed on my X1.
I tried to install footprint (not very clever, actually) without HD camera installed.
That does not work at all but the problem is not here : i've lost the text in a menu when i open a picture in TFL3D : the options/actions menu at bottom right is empty.
It opens the menu, i can click an action but i can't see the text ! (hard to select an anction without reading anything...)
I uninstalled footprint but it did not come back.... (and yes i've soft reset)
What can I do ? Except uninstall/reinstall manila ?
Thanks,
(sorry for my english i'm French...)
I've cabbed footprints. it's on the forum, you need a rom with one of the HTC cameras in it..

You referring to this? Nothing seems to happen after I tap on 'Menu > New' though. Did a soft reset, copied the HtcCameraUtility.dll to my Windows folder and checked my registry settings, and even tried installing gtrab's R3A CAMERA but still doesn't work. Something else I missed out? Or does it only work on Touch-IT? Btw, I'm on stock R3A.

yup. i've only tried it on roms with a htc camera built in, so I've no idea if it will work with stock and a cab.
using that cab, you dont need to copy htccamerautility as a working one is included, but it would be best to install the htc camera first..
what you can check is that the camera.exe in windows is not the SE one.. The SE is a dummy file to trigger CameraRunner.exe
[edit]
I've just reread what you posted... the R3a camera WILL NOT work, it needs HTC CAMERA..

Is it just any HTC camera? Or only those for Rhodium/Topaz? And if convenient, could you point me to where I could find it? Tried searching but couldn't seem to find any for Rhodium/Topaz.
By the way, I saw you mention in another thread that you use both the SE and HTC camera. You mean that's possible?
Edit: Found 2 versions of the Topaz camera, but after installing, got the error message below when I tried running the 'HTC Camera' program that appeared:
'The file 'Camera' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file.'
Edit2: Btw, I did try installing the rhodium MHub.cab and also checked the 3 registry entries but still no use.
And by the way, I suppose the Rhodium camera not working is also why I can't launch the camera from the Photos and Videos tab in TF3D (using Daran's TF3DB3).

Thanks for your answer.
I got a stock rom for the moment. Maybe i'll change it in a few weeks, with everything working ! (hopfully)
The reason the HTC camera doesn't work is that it needs lots of support files, It's just easier to use one cooked into a rom..
If you really want core stuff from HTC devices to work on the X1 then use a cooked rom.. It's simpler, more efficient and you know it'll work...

Can I assume that you used a cooked ROM (so as to have the HTC camera) and then separately installed the SE camera?
Anyway I've been contemplating switching to a cooked ROM for a while .Just worried that switching back to stock (for servicing purposes) would not be possible. Btw, can I assume Footprints will work on Touch-IT?

I believed both Itje and mine have BOTH camera apps built-in. And if you really dare to read previous post in this thread. I even have footprint built-in as well and you don't have to do anything any all

Ya. Saw your post about Footprints in your ROM. And uh, ya, I did kind of see a mention of restoring to stock ROM, just that still had some things I still wasn't too sure about it (like what 'stock radio' is and where to get it). But guess I'd probably just give it a try.

screen going white when taking photo

Hi,
After you press the icon it autofocusses and then the screen dims white and then you can hear the click. The photo is ok.
If I do this in panoramic mode it seems ok.
Anyone ever had this issue or a fix?
thx
Yep, that's how it works! Think this started from the camera software port from the Topaz or Rhodium devices so I assume you have a custom rom?

Hi PiLoT, you saved my ... nightrest.
Checked out the forum but guess my keywords did not make it.
I wonder why they changed that since it makes it look .. weird and uncomfortable.
IMHO its slighlty fast autofocus
well i seem to get faster autofocus anyway
Yeah, I always felt the new camera software was faster when taking snaps. Not to bothered about the white screen personally.

Panoramic Desktop for Rhodium

I have found a version of the panoramic desktop mod for touchflo3d2 but i found it in the xperia forums and it has some issues with the rhodum touchflo.
here's a link to the xperia version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506654&highlight=panoramic
Does anyone know if there is a version that has been made for the Rhodium?

What is the optimal res. for pictures to Rhodium?

I'm using Rotastrain's as well on my Vodafone Stock rom, it works perfectly. The guide how to apply your own background panoramic images works perfectly for the TP2 as well.

To fix third pic issue combine the three pics you wanna use into to one large 1536x512 photo. Scale down to 1200 x 512. Copy the image and open a new file with the scale 1536x512. Paste the 1200x512 copy into the 1536x512 new file. Then follow the directions by cutting it into three 512x512 pieces. The third 512x512 piece will be most while but this doesnt matter because the white portion will be cut off and you'll only see the part of the image that matches the other two pieces.
can anyone tell me if Rotastrain's version will work on the verizon TP2 stock rom...i love altering things on these windows phones but ive never been a big fan of flashing roms...i know, i know...all you guys are gonna say "you dont know what you're missing out on" but hey, thats just my preference...especially with how quick and responsive the tp2 is...oh geez, i got sidetracked...again, will Rotastrain's version of the panoramic background work on the stock rom verizon tp2??? thanks in advance and sorry for the mind wondering

HELP !!! raphael htc sense 2.5 camera tab

Hello,
Can someone help me with a problem?
I am bussy with a rom for the htc raphael.
The problem i got with the rom is the htc sense 2.5 camera tab.
When i press on the camera button on the right corner of the tab nothing starts or it will hang iff i push the camera button in the startmenu i got something about a certificate not signed or missing an application or some times it's just hanging.
I have tried out differend version of the camera files and other files what the camera uses.
I got differend result one time it works or it just hangs or i get the message certificate not signed or application missing.
I ask which programs in the ext. map do you guys use for the camera button and the htc sense camera tab?
And where can I download it or could you upload it so i can try it out in my rom and look if this will work?
Thank you for helping out.

You probably need the updated sdkcerts if you are using the camera hacked to support both sensor 3.3 and 4.x. I have attached a EXT package I took from Gen.Y kitchen. I ran into the same problem previously and just using the new sdkcerts fixed it.
Thank you for helping out i will try it.
Can you also say wich version you use for the camera and the album?
I appriciate your help
