Camera viewfinder problem? - XPERIA X10 General

So I decided to give the gps program Navigon a spin, and although it was a lengthy download to get the maps, I found it quite useful. However, one of the options was to use the camera as a "viewfinder" and it was supposed to do like an augmented reality navigation. Not only did this not work, but it made my camera viewfinder screen stretched out, kind of like when you try to stretch a 4:3 movie in a 16:9 resolution. I have uninstalled the program and rebooted phone multiple times, but to no avail. I am currently running wolf's cm6 v007 with no xperia ui and the FPS limit removed...
If anyone has any suggestions or if I can provide any more info that could lead to a solution, please let me know...

You may end up having to back up all your data and reflash the rom.

blargh...i was hoping that wasn't the answer...i just got it the way i like it...<sigh>

Pm the person who made the Rom before flashing and ask then. Can't hurt.

That's true. I'll give it a shot. Thanks... I guess no one has run into this one before.

Samsung Galaxy S Sample Video and Photos

Hi guys, sorry if a thread like this has already been started, but I looked and search results on xda returned no thread found, so I figure might as well start one. I'm an new poster here, so please be patient. Here are some pictures I've taken with my galaxy s (from t-mobile usa). I've also uploaded a video to vimeo (I think I'm the first one, again, all searches on vimeo show no sgs videos, since I think most if not all are uploaded to youtube). Anyways, the pictures and video are on my site dublew dublew dublew dot foscode dot com/samsung-galaxy-review , and hopefully admins won't block the link from appearing (this is not a spam site). In case they do block it, I'm trying to also upload the pics to this forum. Hope you enjoy the pics and videos.
Page Not Found. Korean Community of Cincinati page right?
thanks for trying to check it out on my site, not sure why it redirected to the other one I maintain, I do have both sites on the same server, but I never had this problem before. I just tried accessing the site from a co-workers' pc and foscode came up... Please try again when you have a chance, and thanks for the input.
Is there a chance someone could post pictures taken in low light or dark environment. Since there is no flash they most likely are not usable, but I would like to see what the phone can do. Cause every once in a while there is that moment when you need to take a picture of your buddy passed out drunk at the table in bar or on the street..
Here are some pictures taken at waverly hills sanitarium, louisville, ky.

just like all digital cameras
Thanks, it was fun testing it out there in the dark, didn't get to see any ghosts though. Here is a picture a shot almost at the same time when someone took theirs with a flash, I had part of my finger in front of the camera.

Wow....those pictures are really poor quality, I expected better from the camera?
Are they taken in low light?
Don't get me wrong I love the Galaxy, my wife has one.
The picture attached was taken with my Nexus.
Those pics were taken at an abandoned building, at night, with no lights, or flash. If you are not familiar, look up waverly hills sanatorium on google, it is a famous tuberculosis hospital that closed in the 1960's, now they offer tours. So, to answer your question, yes, there were no lights at all, just imagine an abandoned building, in the middle of the night, no lights and no flash, try using any digital camera under the same cinditions and you'll probably get the same results. Thanks for checking the pictures out though.

This is at iso 800 which will have alot of noise because the size of the sensor. Havin more pixels doesn't mean better low light pics.

No one can replicate it.
I will search later....if I can remember. It did another capture this morning.

I'm not sure if this applies to android, but there is a sort of "anti piracy" measure that comes with how video files are played on windows and mac systems. taking a screenshot of your desktop always returns a black screen of where the video is at. There are some softwares out there for pc and mac that can override the settings, but I do not know of one for android. There's probably one, i just dont know it.
I've used an app called "freeze frame" to do what you want.
Sony has an application on the market for this called Frame Grabber

I'm also having problems with Instacrap, specifically the hipster talent results. Every time I try to edit a photo it turns out looking like a polaroid or a hemorrhoid. I keep hearing iprone users say they deleted photoshop and turned their real cameras into lamps and ashtrays, but I must be missing something. Is the android version different? I've noticed better results when I ran out of toilet paper and had to use people magazine to wipe! Maybe I could write an app that smears poop on photos...
Anybody have trouble posting pics? Mines keep saying its too small and I know that's not the case because I have my resolution up to the highest.

I feel the same way...personally I can't see why everyone is getting all frothy over an app that makes pictures that look like they came from cameras that need to be thrown away.
Not only that but it's a 12MB install!

it isn't about the filters, there are several Android apps with much better filters and more variety. Instagram is about the built-in community.

How to get my imstagram app up in the rankings

Hi everyone. I have just published an app to the playstore. What it does is that you sign In with you instagram account pick a photo then I put it on a T-shirt and deliver it to the customer.
Problem is that when you type in instagram in the search my app is quite far down the list so therefore quite hard to see.
I've tried different keywords changing the title, description and even category but none of them seem to be moving it further up.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Maybe try uploading to this website in the appropriate section of course. I'd put it on at least a few more websites like App brain. You could also put a video on YouTube on how to use the app even if it's very simple. Things like his could get your app to used by more people. This is just an idea as I've never developed an application but it's worth a try I guess. Good luck!
