two things I hate about desire hd - Desire HD General

1. there is no Time-stamp on taken photos.
2. when shooting video you cannot pause then resume the same shot!!!
why?

about the timestamp... isnt it somewhere in the camera app settings?

If you enable geotag it will timestamp your photos.
Cheers from my DHD.

Remix2 - not sure what that link was you posted... doesn't work. Does it offer a solution to the pausing video recording issue?

I think there are some camera apps that can include time-stamp on the photos.
I don't remember there is any mobile phone out there that has the function of pausing a recording video and continue.

My k800i flashed to k810i has that ability.

One more thing I hate the DHD that's the HTC incoming call screen.

Make 2 videos and stick them together with virtual dub its not that hard

hmm....like what the fruit phone will say - 'there's an app for that'
try full screen call app.

You can check what time / date a photo was taken on by going into the gallery and long pressing on a photo, then choose Details

Use Front Camera In Camera App?

Is there an option to use the front facing camera in the default camera app? I know it is less of quality, but it would be handy for use while taking self portraits with my friends.

yes, if you look at the engadget unboxing video, the camera source is in the settings
I took a picture for you. It's very easy, you just tap the "Switch camera" option basically restarts the Camera application with the new camera in use. Very intuitive.

I really really realllly hope that I can use the front facing camera in Skype. If not natively then by rooting. This would be the major feature for me.
iChat compatible app = win.
Sprint HTC EVO 4G Developer Guide
In the Sprint developer website, developer.sprint.com, we have a developer guide and a sample app/with source code that shows how to utilize the forward facing camera and other features of the HTC EVO 4G

Thanks for taking the picture! I just hope there is a way to get skype on Sprint now. I have heard that it is only for VZW customers....

Question about Camera app

Hi, I was having a play with one earlier - and it appeared that when you take a picture there is no way within the app to see the picture you just took? You have to exit out and go into gallery?
Is there a way around this? Ta
There is an list of latest taken photos on right side... You can even expand it & then it shows all files in image-folder...
Take a look:

Thanks, I thought it strange there was no way to do this. Buy the model I was playing with (three uk branded) definatly didn't have it - must be different rom versions?
Thanks anyway
Remember that you can flash a normal non-messed up rom from the dev section,
like my orange uk version, is now a on the global rom minus the orange bloatware

If you swipe the thumbnails to the right, they will disappear... if you swipe from the very right edge of the screen toward the centre.. they will come back!... same with the menus on the other side (but in reverse!)
Is it possible to remove compression from our phone? Try to take a picture and the size only around 700kb when i use 8mp setting.
you can use vignette off the market - but in the tests I've done it doesn't really improve the image quality very much at all.. and actually in some shots I preferred the stock camera's results.
yeah, i like the result of the stock camera apps. But when i transfer the file to my PC and zoom it, the quality still not too good because of the compression. that is why i'm trying to remove the compression.
Wait for my MOD once we get root
I will add photo preview too
Is there any way to have multi shots option???
To press camera button and take 3-5 pictures in a row...
I miss that capability....

If you go to contacts, selected one and than change picture, you select a good resolution picture from your sd card and confirm, this way the pics won't be blurry. That was the solution on the x10, which had the same problem. Don't know if its the same with arc, as mine will be delivered today, but the problem of blurry contacts sounds very familiar.

I can confirm this.
Original sync -> bad picture
manual set the picture -> good image
This is a real pain in the ass... but since there is no solution since the x10 (at least none that i've heard of...), I think we'll have to deal with this.
Only way out might be a way to change the dialer and contacts app. Is someone already looking into this??

exactly what i was looking for.. thanks buddy!!
can you also post incoming call screen?
the issue isn't caused by SE or Android... it's simply because the images held on facebook are small thumbnails.. so when they're stretched to our screen it's quite pixellated.
I might try putting a higher res image on google for one of my contacts and see if that syncs well.

[Gallery] Disable Photo enhancement?

Hello people. Is there any known solution to how to disable automatic photo contrast corection in stock gallery app? Its really anyoing, especially when you edit your photos yourself and then gallery change it anyway. Maybe its just about to change some value in apk file? Could someone please look at it? it would really help me, thanks people
i dident even knew it does this

first i didnt know either, i was wondering why some photos looks so weird, too much contrasted even i knew that i the light condidion was good, then i noticed, when you press edit in gallery, the gallery disable enhancement in preview, look:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
sometimes the pictures are to much colorful compared to original, it just makes the photos look bad. Now im using piktures app, but i would like to stay with with original, but i cant yet.
PS. Maybe you havent noticed the feautre similiar to Qualcomms "Assertive display", you can read about it there https://www.qualcomm.com/news/snapd...ay-power-efficient-technology-thats-easy-eyes , huawei has it too, its useful and interesting
but dude this looks like when you press edit it THEN applies somekind of effect. not until you press it. or is it.. well ill be damned.
just saying maybe it doesent DISABLE it when you press edit, maybe just than it enables some kind of effect.

nope, when you look on your pics with another gallery app (im using pictures) you can clearly see diference, i tried quickpic too, no difference, huawei used some kind of weird "enhancement" to theri gallery app, i dont understand why...

Built-In Screen Recording (How -To)

I didn't even know this was a feature until I tried to take a screenshot. When you hold the Vol Up + Power buttons, you can activate the built-in screen recorder. This is an awesome feature to me and it's one of my favorite things about the Xperia devices which have a similar feature. I'm aware of all of the third party screen recording apps out there because I do a lot of screen recording for videos. The way it's built into the Honor 8 and uses the buttons as a recording toggle is really nice.
One you start the recorder, you have the option to make an HD recording (720 x 1280) or a mini recording (432 x 768)
The does not auto-rotate for landscape mode, so you'll have to rotate your video afterwards. This can easily be done in the Google Photos app.
Anyways, just thought I'd share that feature because it wasn't made very obvious unless you stumble upon it.
Oh nice, I was not aware of this! Lot of hidden features I came stumbling upon everyday
you can also start this feature by "knocking" on the screen twice with two knuckles...
Thanx for the tip, you're da man
Well after a day with this phone, seems like never regret leaving my z3 compact..
