As you all probably know, when taking a picture with this phone the camera takes about five seconds to actually take the picture after pressing the button. I did a search and read that I could go into the registry and change a couple things, which I did. However, that did not change the capture time. Does anyone know a fix?
its not neccessary to edit the registry, just search around the options
menue->advanced settings
should be the first entry
greets
Thanks but the first entry is the review time after the picture is taken, used to see what the picture looks like. Not what I was looking to change.
Same problem here, 5 seconds of lag, it makes the sound and the people move thinkink that the picture had been taken but oohh surprise .... so I always get a ghost picture LOL
Same here .... Is totally imposible to take a photo ghost-free
can we use another app to take picture? I know that coolcamera works beautifully with my HTC prophet. Does coolcamera work with touch diamond? Anyone tried? Or any better apps for the camera? HTC camera never respond quickly no matter in what devices. I guess we need to replace the HTC camera with something else.
If you have a delay in taking a photo just change the settings using the Advanced Configuration Tool. Under the camera options, capture delay should be disabled, key delay disabled and capture key delay set to zero.
also, try this:
HKLM/Software/HTC/Camera/Captparam/
and set
CaptureTimer = 0 (old=5000)
Two more things to do - go into the camera advanced settings (in the camera itself) and turn off the click sounds and set the review time to no limit. With those changes I think I have a working camera here...

I know where click sounds and review time are. But How do i get to capture delay, key delay, ect. I know you said use advanced configuration tool. Does that come on the phone? If so how do i get to it? Or is it only on the diamond. Im new to xda and I dont see a thread for the HTC Touch Pro. Which is the phone im using. So I assume anything in the HTC Diamond threads would work with my phone.
Oh I think i just came across it by mistake while reading through threads
is this what you were talking about that i need to have.

really? Because last night i read through that thread from the link i posted. And i went to the website of advanced config and it shows everything it does. HAlf of it I dont understand. BUt in the list under camera options it showed capture delay should be disabled, key delay disabled and capture key delay set.
But I saw alot of people saying they messed up there phone playing with settings so i havent installed it yet.
DO you have the new version of advanced config?
Cause i would love to speed up my camera

The Touch pro is the Raphael. Here's an article on Advanced Configuration: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=203
You should check out the tips/tricks at fuzemobility.com as well. The Fuze is a variant of the Touch pro and they're identical except for a few things like a push to talk button...

Download Regedit for HTC or whatever register editor and go to HKLM/Software/HTC/Camera/Captparam/ there you can edit and modify the timer, with all these tricks the camera is working a little bit better, but Im still getting ghost pictures... I give up with this phone ........
to tek: i had the wrong advanced config. the latest one does have all the camera things. and it works. the lag is only probably about a second and a half know.

Hi,

I want an application like this on my XPERIA. Did somebody know an app.
It check in the internet for the cheapest price at ebay, amazon, etc.

hi, i am using beetagg on my x1 it works just fine for me,.. if you get any problems with this app disable realtime mode and switch to foto mode.. then i m able to use macro function of camera etc... works well for small barcodes in magazines, too then http://www.beetagg.com/
ps: was the only barcode reader which worked for me on my x1
Try also www.i-nigma.com
I realyl miss the auto-focus function but QuickMarks program is really messing up the autofocus when you exit.
Hey Glith i suggest you to try beetagg when disabling realtime mode you can use all functions of the normal x1 camera app
Try the barcorama project

Thanks.. Working pretty well. However. Do you know how to change the default focus mode of the camera? It defaults to auto but i want it to default to "point".
Okay, I have this bee crap now and it does just not work. My X1 has no 5 or fire button and in settings I find nothing to select any buttons.
In real mode, the picture is blurry (no autofocus access!) and in shot mode I can focus but nothing afterwards.
It seems this is more a personal tagger and not a barcode reader for articles. I did not find on their website what you can do with a barcode afterwards. (besides tagging your own stuff!)
So what is the procedure to make this really work on a X1?
Thanks
picture is taken with the camera button when you switch to photomode.. but you can use the big fat button under your display in the middle, too
beetagg understands most of the common barcodes

I tried this barcorama with my X1, after quitting the software the camera lens went crazy. It made a strange sound and I had to turn of the power of the phone to make it stop. Also I couldn't make the software to read barcodes.
Same problem with Quickmark barcode reader.
i-nigma didn't make the camera lens crazy but it didn't read barcodes either.
does the beetagg work with regular barcodes?? or just the ones that are shown in the video( in the site)
UPDATE : never mind...i gotta read more..
is there any update on this?
do any of the programs actually work well and do what they should?
thanks
QuickMark works fine... and there are many more out there.
Hi Guys
From where i can mute /disable the camera shutter sound, its so loud, i want to disable it.
My 2nd question is, whenever i take the picture from Xperia, the camera is so slow in all the means, why is that so? Either i start the camera, it nearly take half minute to get ready, If i take the snap after pressing the camera button, the snap is caputred after around 10-15 second, so for the meantime i have to keep the camera in still positon, otherwise if i move it i get the blurr kind of image.
And in the end if i fortunatley able to get some clear picture, closing the camera or to take another pic, i still have to wait for for 20 seconds.
Is there some software/ patch which can remove these problems? or i will appreciate the guidance of experts.
I am using Xperia( Made in Taiwan), with latest ROM version from Sony Ericsson.
Thanks
Jade
in your camera settings
shutter sound click "snd.1" and change it to off
your camera settings also include various other settings you can change
to make the camera more like you want it
like many people get confused by the while click on screen where you want to have it focus
turning that off would prob help you
maybe all autofocus if you want it to take pictures fast
Rudegar,
Thanks alot the 2nd problem seems to be exactly what you pointed out. I never knew that before ,
But for the first question i asked about that Camera Picture Capture Sound, i am able to found the option for it, but i cannot found the option to mute it, infact i found 4 sounds option over there, and there was no option for "No Sound" or Mute , neither browse option to select any other sound file.
THanks
You can always make an "empty" sound file and replace the default one for the shutter. It is somewhere in the Windows folder IIRC.
Xperia Camera software issue!!!
HI Mates,
Of late started having problems with my xperia(updated to 3rd version of UK generic rom) Camera.
Everytime i press the camera button to click a photo, the screen turns up blank(dark grey).
I have to do a soft reset everytime i have to snap a pic or take a vid. It stays good for sometime, and iam not sure when the bug steps in.
Is this a know issue, any solution to this please?...
Thanks

The only way I've found is to turn the sound off on the phone, before activating the camera.
Remove any sound on Camera !?!

Delete this file -> \Program Files\XperiaCamera\Resources\sounds.blob

I am facing the same problem, but it never worked again.
I installed some ROMS such as UnOff and Touch-it. Up to this moment the camera was 100% OK. After that, I installed the original Brazilian Portuguese software and the camera stopped working...
What do I do? DOes anyone had such a problem? How to solve it?
Hey guys,
I need a hand, It is an easy task, but unfortunately I have no Xperia so i must ask for a little help here.
What I need is someone with knowledge of registry, shortcuts & arguments to lend a quick glance to their device.
I need to know what shortcut the camera button is calling, What the registry for the button is including any arguments.
Baiscally the X2 Camera works on other devices with out the lag of the HTC camera. Unfortunately the newer HTC devices use a touchscreen button or v-button to snap the pi, or start video.
I want to map a key on the TP2 to hook the X2 camera snap / start video functions, but I have no X2 to look at. If someone could please take a look at the registry settings for the buttons controlling the camera function & also any short cuts, you can open in note pad or post a copy sp I can see what arguments they are calling to get the picture to snap or video to start rolling.
Thanks Again!
i basically cant help you with what your requesting but...
im curious...
what's your goal on this?
sorry
I'm also just curios...
x2's camera is 8mp, there's no HTC device with more than 5mp. Does the x2 software work on a device with lower resolution cam ?
Hello,
just quick question. I'm trying to get into the camera API and need a specific function. I'm not into the Android programming - yet. But before I'm putting all my effort in learning how everything works I was wondering if the following is possible:
1.) Is it possible to get the actual value of the autofocus from the Camera of my Xperia Z (or any other Android Device, running 4.x)?
2.) Is it possible to set the value for the value of the autofus to a specif value? Like manual focus?
I searched a lot and I just found some functions to stop the autofocus or put in macro/infinity mode. Is there any possibility in putting it to a specific value? Or is the focus system hardware based? (manufactur specific)
Is there any ressource on how the autofocus of an android device works? I can't find anything.
Thank you very much in advance
