I wonder if there is a way to change my camera from portrait to landscape. Thats all I need. I believe sombody will answer me soon. THX
Uh, just rotate it 90° clockwise or counterclockwise. That seems to do the trick for me...
It doesnt work with this trick. If yes I wouldnt ask for help ;|
Well I sure dont know of a way to do it.
for my own personal intrest why would you want to do that in the first place?
I have a sony camera and that option is not given to me and it cost me as much as my BA, I can't phone with it (BUT DOES IT EVER TAKE BETTER SHOTS).
I just want to see what I am shooting at entire display. It can be cool, what u think
maybe the guys which are working on coolcamera app will make BA version of it and we will have a solution for your problem, but we will have to wait until then
I did a little joke about the question, because the wording was a bit ambiguous. What he wants is to make the image preview show up in fullscreen, in landscape mode. It might be possible with a different camera software, but I think the one used in our roms do not support it. Personally, I am fine with our camera, for me it would be weird to see the picture rotated 90° when taking shots. What I would like to see is a more finger-friendly touch interface for the camera...

Hi All
A quick question regarding the contact photos in the People tab in TouchFlo.
I click add favourite, and asks me to pick a contact... so I do.
Then it asks me to pick a photo or use the camera, at this point I WANT to use the camera.
The camera starts but is locked to full photo mode, not contact photo mode.
All the buttons that are normally there are gone leaving just the menu button, which is no use whatsoever. SURELY this is some sort of bug.
Even if I go back to full camera mode and set it to contacts mode (hoping it would use the last mode selected) it still uses full photo mode.
Am I doing something stupid or overlooking something really obvious ??
And before anyone says.... Yes I know I can take the photo first then add it later, it's not the point
BUMP
Could some one at least confirm that this happens on their Diamond as well, so I can at least know whether this is normal behavior or just my device.
It will take you around 1 minute to confirm.
... please
Confirmed from me ... Can't change photo mode... can't change where to save the picture, have to save it in 'device memory'.. bummer ...but I never noticed because I never used it that way...
Thanks mate for confirming that.
Like to meet the programming genius behind that... and ***** slap em upside the head
Hi all
Quick question from me. Is it possible to change the settings for the accelerometer in terms of sensitivity or time delay?? The reason i ask is that when using opera when i turn the phone to veiw it 'widescreen' the picture takes a good 8-10 seconds to flip change. Often i get bored of waiting so turn the phone ninety degrees again but as soon as i turn the handset portrait again the screen changes to landscape - quite annoying. I guess this may be down to slow response within the opera software??
any help would be much appreciated
Steve
I know this is an old thread, but I have the same problem with Opera and was not able to find a post regarding it. Anyone find a way to fix this speed?
Good post!! Please help
its a good question sitting on my mind for a few days...
I have another question about rotating..
is it possible to define that the window of sms will be automaticly turn to be on widescreen and locked?
So i can write sms only on wide screen without trying to make the screen rotate..

Don't know what you mean by locking the sms windows, but have a look at Gyrator for all your rotating needs
what i meant was...
that i hate writing in portrait mode (regular) because i have big fingers..
and since i dont like waiting minute or two till it rotates my screen...
It would be nice to have a window of sms and mail to be auto rotated to widescreen with no option to be on portrait mode.

I know what you meant and I also facing that problem too. I only need the landscape view when in SMS.
I did try on Gsen but don't know how to make it work. Maybe I should give a try to Gyrator.
Gsen is very simple
You just open the gsen config.
there you can define whatever you like.
better you just visit the thread of this app, its sticky..
there you can find all the explainations you need..
I have a solution for you, just was searching something similar and found this Gsen application. The BEST gsen for diamond Gsensor Utility (Flip_it) with landscape manila support, ThanX WildBerry Team
LINK FLIP IT
You can decide what application and how (0, 90, 180 or 270°)
I suggest you to install it
go to option:
1) Click on "add new application"
2) write tmail.exe
3) select 90° and 270°
and your sms will open only in landscape mode
bye bye
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed that occassionally (and seemingly more and more frequently) pictures that I take with the camera are either incorrectly saved in the wrong orientation or are being displayed in both the TF3D tab and the HTC album in the wrong orientation.
In other words, in HTC Album, when I hold the phone in portrait mode, the picture shows in landscape and when I rotate the phone to landscape, it switches to upside-down portrait mode. It's like chasing your tail! Really frustrating! It also displays landscape pictures in portrait and vice-versa in the TF3D tab as you flip through the photos.
This doesn't happen with every picture, but I can't seem to figure out any pattern that would illuminate the cause of the problem.
Am I alone in this? (I have a Euro Diamond)
You Are Not Alone!!
I have been having the exact same problem,and its becoming more and more frequent!
It is fustrating tho because when you are holding the phone in a portrait position and you have a landscape picture, you instinctively try and the phone sideways to see the picture straight....but this just turns the picture so your looking at it the wrong way again!
Its weird how some pictures arent affected and some pictures which are taken right after the non affected pictures are affected!
try to make sure your device is fully upright, perpendicular to the floor. i have a feeling your g sensors are not calibrated and your devices are confused with odd angles. give 'er a try and post results
Yeah, I've experienced this too.
Are you guys using the Gsen app cos I'm wondering if it's that which is having an effect?
Just in case you don't know, you can edit them so they show the right way round using Pictures & Videos in Programs, just select the offending pic and select edit from the menu, then rotate and then just hit ok in the top right corner once you have it the way you want.
I have this problem and it is very annoying, I have the HTC 1.93 ROM and don't use GSen (at the moment). It would be great to find a solution to this problem.
I think this is just a major design flaw in the HTC picture viewer. It's one of the major reasons I use other software instead.
Having the g-sensor enabled in a photo application is just f*#&ing stupid IMO. It totally fails to handle the fact that people often rotate the camera when they take photos. Most people find it easier to rotate the viewer rather than mess about with image editing ... but when they try, the g-sensor f*#&s it up for them.
It's tragic and funny seeing my friend (who still uses the HTC software) having to bend his neck right the way over to view his own photos. And what is with the inability to change the sorting behavior?!!

I think this might be because when you're taking a picture, you should be holding the phone in landscape mode, when you take a picture in portrait mode your phone will rotate the picture like that.. i ALSO had that problem. try it and let me know
Are you using G-Sen?
If you have had G-Sen on then toggled it off, photos will be in the wrong orientation.
If you do a soft-reset without g-sen loaded, pictures are taken correctly.
Solution: if you are using g-sen, make sure it is toggled on before you take a pic.
That's what i found works for me anyway.
I have the exact same situation. But the photos weren't taken with the Diamond, and I have more than a hundred of those. They are, for the greatest part of it, taken in landscape mode and it thinks they are in portrait mode.
Is there a way to change their orientation massivly ? I mean it would take me a life to rotate them one by one.

Place a very large mass next to the diamond, in order to confuse it about which way is down.
It'll be much quicker to alter the orientation on your desktop pc - but it'll have to be a manual one-by-one job. AFAIK, there's no way to do it automatically because it's impossible for any software to know which way up each photo is supposed to be.
Or just use a better viewer without stupid g-sensor usage.
Edit: Another thought... if you change the orientation of some of your pictures (after taking them) then you'll find that they're out of order in the album because the time/date stamps have changed! 3rd party software really is the way to go! /rant
ok, it's been a month, i just found this thread. i have the touch pro but having the same problem. the htc is calibrated just fine. anyway to fix it? htc is so notorius for bugs, can't believe that one slipped.
any better touch oriented album viewer to replace the htc album app? also, would the camera app know to switch to other album prg or always insist of this damn buggy album prg ?
thanks
I have a weird thing going on..
When I view pictures using the Albums app and I have the unit sitting upwards, the image displays in landscape.
When I turn the unit sideways, the image rotates back as if the unit was upright.
Without hard-resetting... does anyone have any idea on how to go about solving this??
I am not running gsen, but I did have it installed at one point and it was working very well. Teeter, bubble level, and other tests work great.
Thanks in advance!
have you tried recalibrating it ?
there are a bunch of programs here that might help you do that (e.g. waterlevel)
Are you using GSen while _taking_ the pictures? I found out that some pictures themselves have been taken with the wrong orientation so it's not the album's problem but the pictures'. Try viewing a picture you upload to the phone and see if you have the same problem.
Thanks for the replies.
It was my understanding that the g-sensor wasnt able to be calibrated yet. I have bubblelevel and I used the calibration with that (but not recently).. so maybe that is causing my problem to begin with?
Does waterlevel actually calibrate the g-sensor or just the waterlevel software?
I dont have gsen installed anymore, it was giving me problem and never worked properly.
Okay I just realized something... I actually took the pictures while holding the camera sideways. So it would make sense that viewing the picture while the camera is upright is going to show the image on its side.. and visa versa when the camera is turned.
So is there any way to view a picture in albums with the camera turned on its side, and view a wide picture without having it turn the opposite way?
Try it, youll probably understand a little easier. Basically if the picture was taken wide, and you view it in albums on its side, it flips it the wrong way.
This is a known problem and I already reported it to HTC, not received a reply yet, but I hope they will be updating the Camera program so it takes in consideration the way the device is held when the picture is taken.
This is actually possible but the only one who can do that is the one who owns the source code, thus HTC.
Thanks for reporting on this Scotchy.. Good to know.
Hi, I am coming from a Mogul and the camera wasn't great, though it did work in a pinch. Now I have a Sprint Diamond which I love, though the camera is so slow that I cannot take a picture or video without blur. I am not trying to complain as the phone suits my needs very well. The question is, can registry edits be made to improve the camera? Maybe speed up the process a bit?
By the way, thanks for this great site! I have learned so much already!

Good question my friend. Well search for the tool called Advance Config. by default ( and i dont know why) the phone is programmed to have a slight delay when you press the action button and when it actually take the pictures.
So install that app and search for the photo options, there you can set the details, activate another options.
Have fun,
