Hot fix for TyTN II photo quality issue
If you zoom in on a captured photo and notice grainy, maze-like patterns within the image itself (this problem is caused by too much sharpness enhancement being applied in bright-light environments), please download and install this hot fix to solve the problem. Sharpness parameters within the photo will then be reduced with only a minimal loss of image sharpness.
enjoy

Thank you Boinng !
It works fine for me... The quality seems better but I will test it later...
thank you for the fix cab
because in the www.HTC.com, there is big problem connexion with the FTP
installed in UK MDA Vario 3 running Duttys 6.1 ROM and not noticed much, if any inprovement in quality. No negative effects tho so will keep testing.
thanks

If HTC would be in pharmacy and drugs, i would call it a "Placebo".
# of pixels per pic similar as before fix though. No granular difference even with a x20 zoom enlarging soft.
Taken with same position - same light
Downside:
Application starts slower and focus takes longer.
Tested on Alex's 5.2 Home.
I took 2 pictures from the same object - one before installing the cab, and one after installing the cab.
Result: can't see any improvement too

There IS a definite improvement. The 'Zoom' which HTC refers to is not the camera zoom when taking, but the post viewing on a PC or in the album app. I used to have this horrible 'hatching' type effect when shooting on 3mp especially in the sky. It was very noticable on cloudy days. This has now disappeared.
Worthwhile fix in my book.

This might just be an updated Camera application that most of us have already gotten thanks to Nadavi.
It's not a new app, just a couple of new, replacement DLLs. It seems to do what the description says it does - it gets rid of the herringbone pattern that sometimes appeared in the grain of pictures in certain lighting situations. The pattern was only ever seen when pictures were blown up.
It's not a magic fix for everything else people dislike about the camera app, but it's worth installing.
according to Alex on this dup thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=375100&page=3
It is newer then what polaris camera tossed in, thats if they did toss in anything. both DLLs were newer when I overwrite in my windows folder using totalcmd. Try dragging the pictures to a computer with a good monitor and start zooming in. Maybe if someone can experiment in a zoom in test with old driver to new drivers.

If you're manually installing the DLLs, ModuleID.dll isn't required. It's used in the cab install/uninstall process. Updated the duplicate thread for clarity about ModuleID.DLL too.
Is there a way that you could post the cab itself? I have a Tilt and HTC eclub won't let me get the file. Thanks
Esse Hotfix é compativel no WM6 em Portugues??
Obrigado

This is a year old update.....If you had a wm 6.1 rom before installing it then most likely the update was included in it.
I have a problem here. After i install this hot fix, my camera goes blank! I cant see any but when i click the button its capturing. Can someone help me here? I'm using HTC Tytn II with WM 6.1. Thanks

Thanks a lot my friend.. truly appreciate it! Its works now!
Hello all, I work for Orange and hopefully will get preferential rates when its released (hopefully early July)
1)I REALLY hope Orange don't put their home screen on instead of the touchflo3d...that would be a really big mistake
2)BATTERY LIFE! I'm thinking...Anyway of linking clicking Opera app to enabling 3G? Maybe making a custom shortcut containing the reg change for 3g on + opening browser? Or is this me being a little too hopeful/ignorant?
3)Music player: Apparently, to all intents and purposes, not that great. Are there any players 3rd party available that are any good? Music playing is something I like the idea of but I don't deal with album art at all so I'm stuck if I use the default.
4)Instant Messaging;
I know WM supports Windows Live, but does it easily support the 640x480 screen? I've heard some 3rd party apps go a bit funny on it (same in fact with the music player)
Also, what is the status with the xs in the top right these days? I had a SPV M700 and x just minimised. You could get a software mod for the x to close, but I'm going to want to be running IM on a fairly regular occasion, obviously multitasking. Is there a "minimise key" mod? To make more similar to desktop experience?
5)I predominantly text, how am I going to find the touch keyboard? It was SO awkward on my M700, is the keyboard functionality/touch sensetivity much improved?
OK Thankyou all in advance,
qpop

I cant help much but in response to the question above, I find the texting overall is pretty good on the Touch Diamond.
Im a texter to and ive used lots of Windows Mobiles in the past and can safely say that the Phone Keypad and Also Full Qwerty are excellent. The Phone Keypad is what I use the most when texting etc and its brilliant.
I dont often type things incorrectly but the downside is, with all touch screen phones ive used so far, that sometimes it doesnt keep up and i do find that when I press the space button it doesnt register (or I dont push the button exactly so it doesnt register more like) but the whole experience, overall, feels good when texting.
Also you have to be careful when texting and then choosing a word in the T9 system as it will repeat the word if you press the wrong part of the screen or it will insert the word in the middle of another word.
This is something im doing less and less of now as ive got used to the sensitivity of the screen so all good.
Best so far on a purely touchscreen Windows Mobile Device. Nice one HTC!
Ok so this is actually my first time posting in a long time. i do regularly flash the great roms on this site and use the cabs that are presented here. wonderful work guys.
ok so my question is, is it possible for someone to write some software for some widgets like the ones on the new Samsung I900? I know that it runs off WM 6.1 Pro. But is the today screen widget system a flash program? or built in somehow? it would be so cool to have something like that on the today screen of my 6.0 kaiser. ive seen so many different UIs its hard to name them all. they are all pretty cool in their own ways, but if someone made this as a cab that would be awsome. i know someone will be dumping the I900 rom sometime soon. hopefully!!!!
thanks,
vince
i dont get it, so nobody thinks this is possible? any takers....bueller...bueller...
Two suggestions...
Link to what you're asking about so someone can possibly make comparisons.
Don't be annoying/insulting.
Links to view widgets on OMNIA i900
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i8NfY_HXas
riiight... i wasnt trying to be annoying or insulting. i figured a quick search on youtube wuold have informed anyone about the phone in question. seems simple enough to me.
well. the Omnia I900 is a new phone that is being put out by Samsung. If you watch the video posted above youll see the widgets that i am talking about. they seem to be flash based. sort of like the ones in vista. i wonder about how much memory they take up. the phone has some other cool things as well like the screen rotate transitions. i love the one from this device. hope some programmers here can chime in on this one.

Apart from the dragging and dropping of widget from the sidebar, everything else is able to be reproduced on wm6 using various methods. rlToday and MobileShell are starting points. The i900 is not that great of a phone.
I figured out the Widgets app is called TouchWiz. i was wondering if anyone has been able to make a cab out of this? i would probably use it if it were available. ive tried a lot of shells, launchers, plugins, they are all cool but none seem to be the end all OS-replacement. by that i mean that they cant do everything yet. some will do some things good and others do other things good, but none do everything good! i know its a lot to ask for from just a shell, but if the next iphone (not 3g version) is any good with a 3rd party following thats growing, i might jump on. its gonna take some great plugs and an awsome os update to keep me on the windows mobile wagon.
i really wish they would start to try and move away from teh stylus usage on their future OS versions. like the Omnia. this would make alot of people happier i think.

-Price - Currently over $1,100 in Australia vs. TyTnII free on most caps. Ouch.
- Poor finger menu navigation. Like most WM6 devices, the underlying OS is designed for stylus use, not thumbs. Comes with a stylus but no slot to put it in the phone.
- No physical keyboard, and dodgy software keyboard which cover 3/4 of the screen making it impossible to see what your typing underneath.
- Haptic touch is cool, but the glossy body is really bad (good?) at collecting fingerprint smudges. Carrying a cloth all day is pretty lame too.
- Battery life is ok, except when using GPS or 3G/HSDPA- reports of going from 100% to fully flat in under 40 mins while using satnav & about 3 hrs talk time on 3G. Cant personally verify this because I only played in-store for about half an hour - google around though..
- Can't use it as a bluetooth HSDPA modem for laptop/PC. Even my 5 yr old nokia can do this..
- Annoying automatic screen orientation, way too sensitive when you moving your arm around and the screen starts freaking out and spinning.
- Reports of random shut downs. Cnet reviewer had 2 in 3 days & pressing the Power On button does not help - have to physically remove and re-insert the battery to reset it.
- Useless "widgets" - Stock ROM does not include Calendar, Messaging or mainstream apps. Like the nazi-esque licensing for the iphone app store, you're not allowed to add / develop non-Samsung-approved apps. So for the time being you have a fancy looking but useless desktop. Standard WM6 "today" screen & various plugins is much much more usable.
Bottom line is its fashion over function. Some will love it, but there's too much iPhone mentality going on to even consider it for folks like me (I like to tweak and fiddle with everything to make a system that suits me perfectly - way better phones already out that can do this easier (TyTnII, imho) )
I do like the camera though, and the weird not-quite-VGA 240x400 resolution.
I agree. I am not interested in flashing a new ROM but would rather customize a few features usings cabs and so forth.
There are some widgets that I would like to use myself. This is very similar to the Vista sidebar that I have become familiar with and appreciate now.
Hi,
i found the related widgets, on rapidshare or megauload.it works fine
on a Qvga pda, but on mine (I780) i have resolution problems
Bye
Herc.
yeah i found a thread in the general-hacking and development section where someone has already made a cab for the widgets. after installing you have to reset your device for them to appear in the today plugins selection. the widgets are really cool but not being able to edit the apps they control at the moment kinda sucks. some of them dont do anything because they are supposed to be connected to programs in the Omnia I900
I've cooked in the new Topaz's HTC Album into my Blackstone's ROM. The album picture controls rotate just fine with G-Sensor, however the pictures themself does not!
Anyone knows a solution to that ?

Sorry for the callback but how make you this with any other Blackstone ROM? I miss this since I have my Blackstone.

good question ,
and one that's being asked by many people in many places
i thought this post is a solution, because your subject it slightly misleading
i thought [REF] = solution/guide
perhaps edit your subject to reflect the fact that you are asking a [Q]
Oh, sorry for the confusion! I'll change that
As far as I know, this has been disabled sinds the diamond series came out.

This is actually better than it was before. With the older Album versions, if you had a picture with wrong orientation (e.g. because the GSensor did not work when taking the picture or the picture was taken on another device), you could do nothing about that because if you rotated the device, the picture also rotated and was in wrong orientation again.
Now, if a picture has wrong orientation, you can simply rotate your device and don't have to twist your head anymore.
The best solution was on HTC Polaris: In the Polaris Album, there was a gesture for rotating the pictures (drawing an angle on the screen).
For some odd reason, HTC took that rotate gesture out. I've tried a lot of things to get it back and asked a thousand times here on the forum, but all without luck.
With the new Album, at least the bugging behavior of rotating the picture when the device was rotated is solved and there's no need for 'abarticulations' of your head anymore.

i have many pictures and photos that were taken on non G-Sensor device, so no orientation data, still a pain to look at them.

Hi everyone,
I´ve used the search option and can´t really find anything which explains this. I´ve tried to install HTC camera cab and HTC Rhodium cab. However, when I start them up, camera doesn´t work. I cut and paste Xperia camera folder from Program Files to memory card or directly just move it temporarily to PC so that phone has no camera software. If I install HTC camera, it kind of starts up but can´t see anything you´re focusing on screen. You can take a pic and even see it on media files but you can´t see on screen what you´re focusing on. If I install Rhodium cab, it directly says "Cannot start camera app. Some files may be missing or certif hasn´t been approved" or something like that. Could someone tell me if I have to tweak anything in the registry when I install these HTC cabs?? I´m using original spanish generic SE rom (latest one released) and R3A Xperia camera driver. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
Anyone...?
Are you using the cam drivers witch gives you auto flash and geo-tagging? If yes, why Rhodium cam? Whats better in that one ? If you dont have the CAB of X1 cam with geo-tag et auto flash, pm me and ill send it to you... Cuzz if you have these, there is no point of Rhodium cam...
Hi ElChe, thanks for respoding;
Yes, I´m úsing R3A camera driver, the one that gives you geotag, autoflash and 4x zoom. However, I´ve read on this forum that Rhodium camera is faster and quality is a little better. Don´t know if that´s true but I wanted to try the HTC camera which gives you 5 mpx option. On another forum I read that the quality is a little better than the normal X1 camera driver. Can any more light be shed on this...? I know there´s quite a few posts on this but I just find that the X1 camera leaves a little to be desired. Outdoor pics on sunny days are pretty good but shots taken on overcast/cloudy days are "fake" as hell. White balance is off (colours don´t look real) and overexposure is present in most pics. Also, when choosing Fine quality on pics, why is sharpness so exagerated? The outline of every object is ridiculously sharp. Not such a bad thing if white balance was right but it just feels that this camera module was rushed by HTC when they built the X1. Mind u, don´t know if it´s down to hardware or software when it comes down to the X1´s camera.
No one else know how to make them work properly?
Ho well... I didnt knew that... I use my cam alot so ill do my research too! there is some cooked roms with it build in already, sense roms... they have both cams installed... Ill check out if I can find something and if I do ill post it here...
Great! I´m simply curious to see quality on the HTC 5mpx option camera and on the Rhodium camera. I´m not too unhappy with X1 cam, I´ve snapped quite a lot of pics and like i said, outdoor pics on sunny days come out pretty good actually (even sharper than my former so-labelled Cybershot K800i). Lucky there´s an option on the phone to "autocorrect" pic when taken and also, Microsoft Picture Viewer´s option for autocorrecting white balance on outdoor pics is great as well (especially on this phone which overexposes some pics too much).
